WHERE nTD THE SUPREME

The Supreme court ef the United
States. as We saw in the last artte
Gle, may destroy laws passed by
congress In two ways, First, by de-
claring them unconstitutional and
void; second. BIZ interpreting into
them meanings congress never put
there.

Ii was first used In 1891 by Chief
Justice john Marshall when in de-
Gliding the case Of MarbaFy IS. Madl-
son he declared certain eel OF
congress to be "renugnant TO the

related to justice Of the peace in
the District Of Columbia and vas OF

eedent set. Long afterwards the
court used this precedent to clothe
itself with authority 10 declare

FEBRUARY 20 SET
 BY FULTZ AS DAY
 FOR FEARED STRIKE
Unless Tangle Is Straight ened Out Strike Will Be Called, Says President
 of Fraternity

New York January 16.-David L. Fultz, president of the baseball play CTS fraternity, today set February 20 as the date the players strike is likely to become effective.
 If the tangle is not straightened,' v Fultz said. mot one of the IS lead ing players of the Chicago Nationals will move towards the spring training camp.
 Not only did six or seven hundred players sign pledges last season not to sign until instructed to do so, but all have renewed their pledge during the past few weeks" Fultz declared. He added that the decision to join the American Federation of Labor came after reports from President Johnson of the American league that the fra ternity must be crushed and that play CTS active in it must give up their order or get out of the league.
 Fultz said players in leagues not protected by the fraternity had been advised to sign their contracts

JOINING LABOR UNION WOULD STANDARDIZE
 THE SALARY SYSTEM

New York, January 16.-Affiliation of the Baseball Players fraternity with the American Federation Of Labor would end the present salary system in professional baseball by which the best players now receive thousands of dollars for their work, in the opinion of President Ban Johnson of the Amer ican league, who discussed here today the plan to unionize ball players. He asserted the change would mean that a union scale of wages would be paid both to the star and to the average player in accordance with the average of money his position called for. He doubted if the stars of the game would make such an agreement.
 President Johnson said he hoped Samuel Gompers would first consult with his associates before taking up the proposal seriously, adding that the American league has never been an- tagonistic to the American Federation of Labor.

New York Futures
New Orleans Cnttnn

New Orleans, January 16.-Cotton took on steadier tone in this market today. standing at a net advance throughout the session and showing gain at the high est of $2 a bale on the strongest months. Covering by recent sellers, together with fresh buying by traders who were inn pressed with the improvement in the technical position, put values up.
 The opening was at the advance in sympathy with better cables than due and in the early trading active months rose Il to 21 points. Late in the morn ing the market was at it's best, a net rise of 26 to 40 points. In the afternoon buyers of the morning were inclined to take profits and offerings from this source worked against prices. The close was steady at a net gain of 12 to 21 points.
 More rain and cold weather were re- ported over the belt, but these reports were balanced by the claim from inn portant sections of the western belt that much wheat would be planted on cotton lands. Also the organized movement to reduce cotton acreage attracted atten- ton. The marking down of local spot quotations by 25 points weighed against prices toward the close.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-01-17
GRAIN AND PRODUCE

Chicago, January 16.-Enlarged export business, together with big decrease in the United States visible supply gave a strong upward impulse today to the wheat market. As a result prices, al- though nervous at the close, showed an advance of 1a4c to S5sc, net, with May at s1.SS to $1.ssB, and July at $151 to $151A Corn gained %c to 7sc to 1c; oats, 1laasc to %c, and provisions 25c to 75c.
 Export sales of wheat for the day to- tailed as much as 1,50Oo0O bushels, and it was said three foreign governments were buying.
 It was connection, it was pointed out, that the worlds available stock showed huge reduction in the last week, about 6, ,000, 900 bushels, as against an increase of about 100000 bushels at the correspond- ing time year ago. Still more signifi- cant, according to the bulls, was the cir constance that 3,3S5, GOO bushels of the falling off had to be noted as a cut in the amount on hand in the United States The heavy abridgement of the democratic aggregate was announced just before the opening, and exerted an immediate in fluence on values consequence that kept heightening throughout the session as from time to time fresh export sales were made known
 Berlin advices that the answer of the entente allies to President Wilson barred for the present any further steps to Ger many to bring about peace counted to a material extent as bullish factor in the wheat market. Some fears of crop damage in the soft wheat states tended also to handicap the bears.
 Export buying and the scarcity of ru- ral offerings helped to lift corn. Argen- tine reports continued to indicate a big shrinkage of the probable yield Be- sides. there was much notice taken of the strength of the domestic live stock markets at high record levels.
 Cats. like wheat and corn, responded to improved seaboard demand. Shipping business, however, was restricted by diff ficulty of obtaining railroad cars.
 Advances in the hog market made pro- visions soar. In addition, the semi monthly report on warehouse stocks was regarded as bullish especially concerning pork and ribs.
