MAKE ADDRESS
BOARD OF TRADE MEETING. AT
MooREFlELD, THIS STATE,
NEXT MONTH.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1O- Edward
w. Parker. coal statistician for the
United States Geological Survey, has
accepted an invitation to address the
annual meeting Of the West Virginia
Board OF Trade at Moorefleld on Sep.
tember 12 and 10.
Mr.. Parker should make an inter-
estlng talk to West Virginians asihe
rs thoroughly conversant with their
natural wealth, the extent and value
OF the States mineral resources and
the,conditions obtaining in their de-.
yelopment. Mr.. Parker has repeat
edly emphasized the fact that West
Virginia gets but part Of the value out
;otits coal and coke by reason Of hay'
Ing comparatively few factories TO
create q home market for Its mineral
products. Several million dollars 9
year are said to be lost by the coal
and coke producers Of West Virginia
iby reason OF the factt hat they ship
their coal out OF the State instead OF
building. up home markets for their
products which would increase the val,
ne Of their output, y.
THE vast industrial communities,
which West Virginia might build up,
were 1t to retain Its coal, coke and gas
foriuse in the Stale instead Of send;i
Ing them away to enrich other com,
mulIties; as wellas the Increased
prices producers would obtain under.
those conditions, are almost hobbies,
with Mr.. Parker and Il is believed
ttie,wllI open the eyes 81 the people otI
the State to their own waste ot tteirI
natural RESOURCES and their failure to
nuke the most ofs what has Ieen fsoI
bopntitully bestowed upon them.

to go into the market and buy to the
extent of his ability. IN this case. he
added, the defendants had sought to
raise the price arbitrarily by linking
their purses to buy all the cotton Of
fered for future delivery.
Former United States Senator John
G. Spooner, opposing Mr. Lehman. de-
clared that the counts had been found
bad because they charged no restraint
OF trade. The solicitor general, he said.
had devoted himself almost exclusively
to showing that the defendants had a
monopoly. Not a word about monopoly.
he asserted, was to be found in the in
dictment. He declared the defendants
were not charged with ever having a
bale of cotton. and SO they could not
have monopoly of cotton.
BY contracting to buy futures" he
said. the defendants might have made
it possible for the men who did have
the cotton to increase the price. but
surely the defendants were not to be
charged with the increase
THE defendants he argued, "were
charged with conspiring to buy cotton
futures. nothing else. These purchases
were to compel a demand by the seller
Of the contracts for cotton TO. future
delivery. This demand was to cause a
rise in prices of cotton on the New
York cotton exchange. That rise was
to cause rise of prices in other mar
kets. That rise in other markets
was to cause the spinners and manu-
facturers to pay excessive prices
These excessive prices may have
stonped some traffic in cotton Some
of that traffic may have been inter-

NO MORE C0RNER|NG N The MARKET
PERMISSIBLE IF GOVERNMENT WINS

Washington, Nov. 9.-For the first
time the government today asked the
supreme court of the United States to
proclaim as the law of the land that
running corner on a stock ex-
change Is violation of the Sherman
antitrust act.
The point came up in the oral argu-
ment of Solicitor General Lehman In
support of the indictment of James A.
fatten. Eugene Scales, Frank B. Hayne
ana william F. Brown on charges of
conspiracy to run a corner in cotton"
on the New York cotton exchange Es-
sential counts In the indictment had
been declared erroneous by the New
York circuit court and the government
was arguing for a reversal
.Chief Justice White asked If the gov.
eminent considered that a combination
to force down the price of commodity
would be in violation of the law as
well as a combination to put the prices
up. as charged in the press Indictment
Mr. Lehman said he was not familiar
enough with the market to reply. The
chief Justice also failed to get a con-
else answer to his query about the
legality Of planters combining for
higher prices.
Mr. Lehman. in attacking the hold
ing of the circuit court. referred to II
as saying that no restraint of compe-
titfon in interstate commerce was
charged in the Indictment. He urged
that the Sherman antitrust law was
not directed against restraint of COM
petition, but against a restraint of
trade. He added that even If 1t had
been aimed at restraint of competition.
the competition caused by an increased
price of cotton would be temporary
and abnormal, a thing which the law
aimed to prevent.
