Chicago, Ills, Jan. 9.-Grain ad-

less to skepticism regarding an early
peace. Corn closed firm, a to nc net
higher, with Jan. 1.27% and May
1.25A. Oats gained Is to 1%c and
provisions Is to 27c.
Feeling that peace was more distant
than had been hastily assumed yes
terday by ultra-bearish traders gave
the corn market an upward slant from
the beginning. Throughout the day,
also, renewed talk of possible lift
ing of the maximum price limit on
future deliveries tended to strengthen
values. Much attention, too, was be-
slowed on the continued meagerness
of receipts, for which snowdrifts on
railroads and country highways were
chiefly held responsible. In this con-
nection forecasts of more snow and
of severe cold seemed far from re-
assuring.
Oats rallied more sharply than corn,
as declines in oats yesterday on &C.

one-third according to population and
one third in proportion to the mile

The work is supervised by the state

any future projects in that state. Com

brought the ticket to tMandan and had
it cashed at the head Office. In the
meantime his cousin, E. Kaufman,
sold a load Of flax and secured the
ed with obtaining money under false
original ticket and cashed it at Jud-
son. When the months business was
closed it was discovered that KautZ-
man was paid on duplicate OF the
storage ticket that e. Kaufman was
paid for. The manager of the Bingen-
heimer' Mercantile company claimed
E. X. Kaufman never brought load
of flax there last season.
The case was argued before a jury
with Judge Nuessle on the bench. The
jury returned verdict yesterday at
