Charleston, W. Va, December 6.-Gov- ernor CornwelL in a statement issued from his office here today, replied to the criticism of the international execu- tive board of the United Mine Workers at Indianapolis, which on Sunday night took issue with him for calling federal troops into the strike zone.

Chicago, June 4.-Free selling on
the part of commission houses led
to sharp breaks in the price of corn
today. Belief that receipts would
show considerable enlargement next
week was chiefly responsible. Coun-
try offerings were reported to have
increased to q material degree.
Opening prices, which varied from
unchanged figures to tx cents
higher, with July at $1.72M to STA,
and September at s1.60 to $1.60A
were followed by slight general
gain and then by q fall to well below
yesterdays finish.
Later there was no pressure on the
market, and prices advanced in SYM
pathy with cash grain. The close was
nervous, half cent to ~ net high
er. with July at $1.74A to $1.74h
and September at s1.6OA to $1.6o7s.
Oats.
Oats, like corn, were subjected to
heavy selling pressure. After open
ing v of cent off to like adj
vance, they hardened little, and
then. underwent decided setback.
Provisions.
Provisions weakened with hogs
and grain. Buyers We're scarce.
Subsequently gossip that foreigners
were after provisions brought about
