Lewis, acting president of the h mted Mine Workers of America, denied "in every particular" a state ment attributed to him bv a mem-1 Wabash -.r of congress and used by United lalVW0, tidies uismci juage a. a. Ander son in his charge to the federal grand jury, summoned to investi gate the coal strike, in a statement made public here today. Mr. Lewis, as a part of the statement, also made public a letter he had written to Congressman Schuyler Merritt of Connecticut, requesting "that you make amends for your mistake by making public admission of the fact." Mr. Lewis' statement says: "Someone has done me a very great injustice, and I feel that the public should know it. It has been charged against me that I made cer tain statements that I never made and would not make. In his in structions to the federal grand jury which is now in estigating the coal industry, Judge Anderson calls at tention to a speech made by a mem ber of coneress on October 29. in which that congressman said: Purported Lewis Message. "'Mr. John Lewis, now acting president of the United Mine Work ers, when attending one of the joint conferences with the oprators, re ferred to the purpose of the con ference as follows: "'As I understand it. it is for the purpose of wiping out competition between us as miners first, viewing it from our side of the question; next tor the purpose of wiping out competition as between the opera tors in these four states. When we have succeeded in that and we have perfected an organization on both siUcs of the question, then, if I un derstand the real purpose of this movement, it is that we will jointly declare war on every man outside of this competitive field who will do anything in any way endangering uu: peace mat exists oetween us.

Chicago, Dee. 20. Weakness that char eeterized the corn market today wa. due principally to liberal receipts here. The close was heavy, lo to 2o net lower, with January 11.36 to 11.37, and May 11.35. Oat. finished at declines of c to 2o and provisions unchanged to 15c down. The early advance came about as a re sult of sharp upturns In British exchange and owing to a statement which the sec retary of the treasury had made ln regard to credits for Europe. Buying, however, lacked force, and there were signs of a somewhat general disposition! to anticipate aiiivm ui mure pienuiut supplies than have heretofore been expected. Besides 15? receipts in Chicago for the week were 700,000 bushls In excess of the shipments, in addition favorable weather for rail road operation was looked for and it was Indicated that the visible supply total would .how a fair Increase on Monday.

Deo. 10. Rallies fmm th. recent demoralization In foreign exchange, easier rates for call money and a con certed drive ae-ataat the HhortM in anm. of the popular speculative Issues effected a snarp recovery 01 prices In the stock market this week. The rebound lacked uniformity, how. ever, rails, for .example, holding back on the unsatisfactory statute of federal leg Islatlon and the attitude of organised labor respecting the return of the rail road, to private owners. Trading in the early days of tha week was comparatively dull and often without definite tendencies, but extensive purchases of oils, motors and the usual leaders among steels and equipments elevated av erage quotations maletally at th. end. All classes of Industrials were stimu lated by the enormous demand for finished products In steel and Iron ano coppers were moderately responsive to large ex ports and higher prices for the refined metal. The supreme court decision sustain In. wartime prohibition and th. agreement entered Into by the big packer, with the government to withdraw from all outside buslnes. except dairy products, exerted only temporary effect upon the general financial situation.
