quiet today, but prices ruled firmer on
trade buying in the absence OF prompt

contracts during the afternoon, or about
nine TO eleven points net higher. The
close was firm and within a point or two
OF the best, at a net gain OF from five
to ten points. Continued steadineEs IN
Brazil and a disposition in some quarters
to reduce estimates OF coming crops.

The industrial commission has the
right To regulate the hours and condi-
lions of labor of women according to-
the modified ruling of the supreme
court in the case of the Lunge Can
ming company against the state. \
rehearing was denied in this case, and
the former mandate holds, but the
modification rc-establishes the author
Ity of the Industrial commission to
rule in such cases.
The opinion Of Justice NJ. b. Rosen-
berg says:
1--WE are of the opinion that the stat
ute may properly be construed as lay
ing down the general rule that women
shall not be permitted to work in any
place for such a period of time as shall
be prejudical to their health and au-
horizing the industrial commission
upon investigation to determine as Il
fact what class or classes of employ
mcnt are dangerous or prejudicial to
the life, health, safety or welfare of
females and To determine as n fact
how long females may be engaged in
the several classes Of employment rea-
sonably without danger or prejudice
to the life health, safety or welfare
Of such females and to establish by
general orders such classification and
the time which females may labor
therein so found aud we are of the
opinion that rs so construed and to
that extent the law should be upheld
for the reason that the authority thus
conferred invests the commission with
no arbitrary and uncontrolled diScre-
ton, but directs them to ascertain the
facts and 10 apply the rules of law
thereto under the prescribed terms
and conditions. Such action is not
legislative in character, but is the per-
formance of an executive and minis
terial duty within the regulations pro
vjdpd in the act.
