Chicago. Dec. &.-Moderately
higher prices for corn resulted to-

and May 1.3l to 1.34A. were fol:
lowed by Z slight reaction and then
by upturnB higher than before.
In the latter dealings, unusual
weakness Of the hog market pulled
down the price Of corn. The close
was heavy. INC net lower to Nc

1.35h and May at 1.31h to 1.33.
Oats rose with corn. After OPEN

An automobilist's reluctancy to

not have an expressman's license
and questioned q policeman about
the legality Of such work. The po-
liceman referred the motorist to
Chief DeJaeger. After the motor
