reaching.

Arguments were begun In the United
States Supreme Court yesterday in the
so-called Cotton Pool" cases. which in
volve the application Of the Sherman
defendants are James A. Patten, Eugene
Scales. Frank B. Hayne, and William p.
Brown. Indictments were returned
against them in the Federal Court for
the Southern District of New York. De.
murrers to the indictments were inter-
posed on behalf Of the defendants. The
demurrers were sustained as to certain
counts in the indictments and overruled
as to others.
The Department of Justice looks on the
outcome Of the case as very important,
determining. as 1t will. the power or lack
of power under the Sherman law to
break up a corner in any commodity. The
question is: Does a corner in a staple
product constitute a restraint of trade in
violation Of the Sherman antitrust law?"
II the government wins the case crimi-
nal proceedings will. undoubtedly be be-
gun by the Attorney General without
delay against several persons who are
responsible for agreements under which
the prices of food articles are controlled.
Former Senator John C. Spooner ap-
peared in the argument yesterday for the
defendants and contended that the in
dictments were defective. in that they

about a fictitious advance In price.
Solicitor General Bullet argued for the
government that the indictment alleged
a corner" and he defined a corner
to consist in the holding Of the COM
modify. He contended that the question
of the sufficiency of the Indictment was
decided by the court below and asked
the Supreme Court to pass merely on the
question whether the Sherman law penal
provisions could be extended to prohibit
the cornering of a staple article Of trade
as one form Of trade restraint contraven-
ing the Sherman act.
Mr.. Spooner insisted that the defend
ants never agreed among themselves not
to sell their cotton when ever any one
OF them pleased. They purchased from

By an order issued yesterday the In
terstate Commerce Commission attempt
ed a final readjustment Of freight rates
on merchandise for export to Europe,
which would settle the long-standing
rate controversy between the cities OF
New York. Boston. and Baltimore. This
situation grew out OF a big rate war
about q year ago when Boston sought
the same import rates as Baltimore
Boston thought It was entitled to the
same dinerential as the Maryland city,
which was slightly under It, both Boston
and Baltimore being under New York
The commission held that on the sec

should have the. same diferentiai as
Boston.
The commission explains that II had
no intention to change the differentials
on -four or on iron and steel articles for
export. In the supplemental opinion the
commission 20 amends its previous find-
ings AZ to prescribe definitely that the
differentials to Baltimore and Philadel-
