The produce and fruit market con-
tinues duh. and, "a one OF the commission
merchants said a day or two ago. viii
remain 80 until there IS change in the
weather. Shippers OF produce and Of
fruits cannot see any profits n putting
goods on the road when May weather Is
prevailing IN January. Because OF this
fact the receipts yesterday were very
light But weather or no weather. the
people must have something 20 eat. and
yesterday the demand was somewhat m
excess OF the receipts. and. as a result.
prices were very firm. There were no
decided advances anywhere on the list
but here and there articles commanded
figures that were fractionally larger than
on tie day before
Ihere are Indications OF a change IN
the weather that will be more favorable
70 the produce and fruit trade. and Il
may De That the next few DAYS will show
marked advance IN the pr1ce-iists issued
from the Cary Street block.

YODER CONTEMPT
CASE CONTINUED
Appeal Will Be Heard by SUI
preme Court in March-Other
Matters.

In the Supreme Court OF Appeals yes
terday the case Of Yoder vs.. the Common
wealth was continued % the March term.
IL will be remembered by readers OF The
Times Dispatch that a young man named
Yoder created something OF sensation
or q series OF sensations in Lynchburg
IN the early days Of last year by talk
ing right out IN meeting in little
pamphlet publication which was issued
sem Occasionally and was called The
Idea he raked the City Council, the
editors or the daily papers and various
and sundry city officials. Finaliy. Yoder,
in his Idea attacked Judge Frank =.
Christian. OF the Corporation Court. and
in plain language declared that His Hon
or was a better judge of whiskey than
he was OF the proper place to issue
license for the sale OF that seductive ar
Jicle. Judge Christian summoned the
young man before his court and fined
him so. and sentenced him 10 fifteen days
in jail for contempt OF court. From
this Judgment Mr.. Yoder has appealed.
and this IS the case that was yesterday
continued TO the March term OF the
court.
Mr.. Yoder contends that inasmuch as
what he said in his publication about the
Judge was not said I'm the presence OF the
court. and in no way hindered the pro-
ceedings Of the court or interfered with
any Of It's processes. IL was not con
tempt or court IN the meaning OF the
law.
MT Yoder was his own lawyer before
Judge Christian but in the higher court
he will he represented by ex Governor
Montague. r l. Montague and Hon.
Aubrey F. STROBE.
The court yesterday refused q writ OF
error i'm the case or VIII Gates. Of NOT
folk Gates was convicted in the Hust-
ings Court of Norfolk OF tho larceny OF
a large sum Of money, which he obtained
by some gambling scheme. and was SEN
fenced TO four years in the Denitenuary.
The refusal Of his appeal settles the
matter and consigns him to the State
prison Tor four long years
A writ Of error was granted in the case
of the Columbia Amusement Company, of
Norfolk. against the Pine Beach Invest
ment Company and others. This case
involves the transfer Of certain nquor
licenses

out a. from t12 20 SIC. Il must be said
however. that there are yet a good many
very common goods. aud not a few dam
aged piles turn up. But al sun-cured
stock is in sctive demand. and anything
and everything that finds its wav on
the floors Of the warehouses will bring
fun value.
The receipts, both by wagon and by rail
were large during the afternoon and last
night and the probability Is that to-day's
breaks VIII be much larger than those o.
yesterday.
