Chicaxo Grain and Provisions.

Chicago. Dec. Increased anxiety re-
garding coal shortage did a good deal to-
day to give an upward swing to the corn
market. The close was unsettled. INC
to 3Ac net higher. with December 1881
to sl.asS and May s1,s2N to .l.32h.
Oats gained &c to INC. In provisions.
the finish varied from lie decline to a
rise of 22c.
Corn traders showed an evident dis.
position to anticipate that rs a result of
coal strike developments the movement
of corn to primary centers would be more
restricted than has heretofore been
deemed proba BILE. The fact that there
was no corn delivered here today on De-
cember contracts tended to focus atten-
ton on the smallness of the stock Of corn
In Chicago. and go too did the compare
tive scantiness of receipts and offerings.
Besides. hog values were sharply higher
and weather conditions unfavorable In
the last hour. though the advance Of corn
was somewhat checked by announcement
that one Of the chief industrial buyers Of
corn had Withdrawn from the market.
Export sales and decrease of the Wis.
ible supply total added firmness to oats.
Provisions averaged higher with corn
and hogs despite talk by packers that the
winter cost Of hogs would DO less than
$12.00 q hundredweight.e

MAY SUE FOR $500
FOR DAMAGE FROM
PROHIBITION COWS
Present. Claim for $50 for
Care of Dry"
Cattle.

Presenting a claim against the
Cudahy Packing Co. on the South
Side for $50 for care and mainte-
nance of two fat cows which had
wandered from the pens Of the COM
pany Sunday and ended up by graz
ing in his garden. Mike Zroki, 4024
South Thirty-ninth street, received
$40 from Chief Peter jolly of the
Cudahy secret service, after he had
told police that he was positive the
cows were rank prohibitionists. as
he found them absolutely dry"
when he attempted to milk them.
ZrCki produced an itemized state
ment in which he enumerated Is
bales OF hay, 200 pounds of bran, 50
cents per day for yardage charges
and the cost of extra help to care
for the cows, and other incidental
expenses, which totalled the $50
claim he made.
Zroki told police one of the cows
objected strenuously when he at
tempted to milk her, and kicked him
into a neighbours yard, destroying
new tin bucket and injuring his
arm.
He said he was contemplating SUI
ing the Cudahy company for $500
damages for the injuries sustained
in the attempted milking, of the
cows, claiming the Cudahy company
to be negligent and careless in al
lowing prohibition cows to stray
away from the company yards.
The controversy was in statu quo
last night, with the Cudahy COM
pany in possession of the cows.
Chief jolly of the secret service said
that he was led to finding the lost
cows by = story in The Bee to the
effect that Mike Zroki had reported
his find to the police.

production and be borne by the con-
sumner.
