The highly speculative character Of the
81 ain markets has caused puts and calls
TO range so far apart as TO become a
costly insurance against an actual posi-
ton on either side. There has been ac-
tive Wall Street speculation, however,
in wheat puts and calls. After the close
of the grain market yesterday a promi-
rent stock exchange man offered calls
on September wheat as above the final

OF an advance in stocks are bearish as

OPERATORS NOT BENEFITED.
Sales Agent Testifes That Prices Have Not
Been Raised

Philadelphia, JAN l3.--The Delaware and Hud-
son Company closed its case before the Coal
Strike Commission this afternoon and the Erie
company opened. The Erie manages the HILL
side Coal and Iron Company and the Pennsyl-
vania Coal Company. Wayne Macveagh. of this
city, and Major Everett Warren, of Scranton,
are it's counsel
One Of the principal witnesses to-day was
Thomas f. Torrey, general coal sales agent of
the Delaware and Hudson Company at New
York. who testified that his company derived no
benefit from the present high price of coal.
Among other witnesses were two physicians.
who said that the occupation of mine worker
so unhealthful as physicians for the
miners have stated; g. real estate agent. who
testified to the amount of property owned by
miners of the company, and employe of the
Delaware and Hudson, who made investiga-
ton of wages paid to bituminous coal miners,
which showed that they received less than the
anthracite miners.
General Wilson. owing to the illness of Judge
Gray. again acted chairman of the commits
sion. and several times called on to inter
vene in the personal tits between opposing
counsel.
Mr.. Torrey explained that the Delaware and
Hudson Company had no control over coal prices
in New-York Harbor; that it turned its tide
water coal over to the Hillside Coal and Iron
he said, got 65 per cent of the circular tide
water price, and derived no benefit from the
present abnormal retail prices The Hillside
company received the other 80 per cent. The
tidewater price of coal, he said, was So for
domestic sizes His company. he added. sold
coal to dealers in New-York and in New-Epg-
land at circular prices.
W. l.. Lawrence, of Scranton, assistant real
estate agent of the Delaware and Hudson testi-
fed that 1,O39 of the company's 1851 miners
owned property valued at 81 ,322, f61 He could
not tell how much of the property was mort
gagged.
DR.. W. G. Fulton, a surgeon in the I,acka-
wanna Hospital, at Scranton, and Dr. w T..
Keller of Scranton, who has had special ex-
perience as medical examiner for insurance
companies, testified that the occupation of a
miner compared favorably with that of most
other occupations, so far heathfuIness was
concerned. Captain W. A. May of Scranton
told of the improvements made in and about the
collierfes during the last tWenty-three wears
and Of the efforts of the company to improve
the condition of it's employees in other directions
such as giving them a chance to purchase their
own homes. and allowing them three months
to pay up the back rent which accumulated
during the strike.
The company, he said. never restricted the
men in the number of cars they should load
day. In answer to questions he said that
there was reason why O miner who was in
dustrious should send his boy to work in ths
mires He thought that the age limit for bovs
in the mines should be sixteen years and ont
side the mines fourteen.

R. DOLLIYER'S BOMB.
SURPRISING SPEECH.
The IO7ca Senator Repeats Charge
AGAINST Mr.. Dingiey.
rBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TB1BUNu.I

Washington Jan. 13.-The Iowa idea OF
"Cumminsism run riot" was the term appHeo
by most of the Republican Senators to the sur
prising speech of Senator Dolliver, of Iowa, to-
day. In which he declared that Governor Ding
ley did put duties up for the express purpose OF
having them brought down by means OF reel
procity treaties
Mr.. Dolliver rose to express his views In the
debate precipitated by Senator Vests resolution
requiring the Finance Committee to report a
bill removing the duty on coal, which has peeh
occupying the attention of the Senate in the
morning hour for several days. Basing his con-
tentions on an alleged confidential interview IN
which the late Governor Dingley was repre-
sented as saying that the duties imposed by the
Dingley bill had been placed too high with
view to permitting the negotiation OF reci-
prooity treaties without injury to American
industries, Senator Vest mas urged the remSval
of the duty on coal and incidentally cast re-
Elections on most of the Dingley schedules. Sen
ators Hale and AIdrich have vehemently repudi-
ated the charge of Mr. Vest and the authen-
ticity Of the interview, and the statement or
Mr. Delliyer fell like bombshell In the Repub-
liean camp.
The assertion of Senator Dolliver may have
minsism" said one Senator to-day, "but 1t is
absolute heresy to the cause of Republican
ism and the policy of protection, and would II
accepted and carried to it's logical CONCLUSION,
absolutely undermine that system which Is
alone responsible for the unprecedented pros

Jersey Central Refuses More Cars
TO IndeDcndents

What coal dealers and others believe to be an
attempt on the part of independent operators
70 keen up the corner in the coal market here
NAV be frustrated by the Jersey Central COM
pany Thousands of tons Of independent coal
have arrived in the last few days at Elizabeth
port. N J.. who}kA important distributing
centre for coar~31xhe metropolitan district
These cars have stood unloaded while many peo-
pie in New-York could not get enough anthra-
cite to warm their houses. More independent
coal continued to arrive yesterday until the
tracks bockaded. and there was no chance
of company coal reaching the yards
The Jersey Central Company decided to take
summary action, and placed what the dealers
term an embargo on the coal. This means that
the owners can get no more cars until they un
load the cars at the Elizabeth yards. This ac-
ton has several times been taken by the rail-
roads when the yards became congested- In
this case it will compel the independents TO put
their coal on the market at once. and thus in
crease materially the supply here.
Henry Berghorn, retail coal dealer of No

the statement that coal was being held up by
the independent operators in Jersey City, aho
that q mile of cars could be seen there filled
with Independent coal, on whlch the o"heis
were paying demurrage-
-'They can well afford TO pay demurtage
he said 'as the prices they are getting for their
coal makes il pay to hold up the coal. .
A representative of the Lehigh Valley Rail
road Company said that such condition of
affairs would not last forty-eight hours:
AN embargo would be declared on TINS COAL
he said land until they unloaded the coal at
the wards and relieved the congestion they
would get more cars. The question OF ue-
murrage does not figure in the case
