Property in Montana
Held Inadequate.
REVERSES DECISION
Seizure of Securities of Enemy
Insurance Companies Up
held by Tribunal.

The United States Supreme Court
yesterday set aside the sale Of the
Alice Gold and Silver Mining Com
pany's property in Montana to the
Anaconda Copper Mining Company.
Minority stockholders Of the Alice
Company contested the sale. They
ccntended that the sale was illegal
and that its purpose was 10 enable
the Anaconda company to monopoliZe
copper production in the Butte dis
uict Of Montana. 1t was further
alleged that the price a. &l,5OO,OO0
received for the property was lu-
adequate.
A temporary injunction was grant
ed in the lower courts, restraining
the Alice company from dispOsing
Of the 10000 shares of Anaconda
stock which was received for the
property. On hnaI hearing, the
lower court did not set the sale
aside, but held that the price was
Inadequate.
The court directed that the prop
erty should be sold at auction and
t. IT did not bring more than 81
100000. the value Of the Anaconda
stock. the sale should stand. No
bidders appeared at the auction, and
a final decree affirming the sale
was passed This decree was re-
versed by the Supreme Court.
The 3 Supreme Court also upheld
the seizure by the Alien Property
Custodian of securities Of enemy in
sUranCe companies which were de-
posted with the Central Trust and
the Metropolitan Trust companies
Of New York under Massachusetts
snd Connecticut laws for the privi-
Iege Of doing business in those
states. The court held that the
trust companies were trustees and
not Iienholders of the securities and
consequently were subject to seizure
under the alien property law.

ENEMY PROPERTY
SEIZURES UPHELD
BY HIGHESTCOURT
Alien Custodian's Proce-
dure Justified, Opinion
Judges Hold.
SALES ARE ALLOWED
Case Involved Insurance Busi-
ness of Several Ger
man Firms.

The constitutionSlity Of several
important sections Of the trading
with the enemy act were upheld By
the action Of the Supreme Court
yesterday in approving the action
Of the Alien Property Custodian
making seizures Of property claimed
to be owned by German and Aus
trisn subjects.
The court held that the Alien
Property Custodian has the right to
sell the property and securities 80
seized to American citizens and hold
the funds in trust for the enemy
owners until Congress determines
their disposition.
The attacks upon the custodisn's
seizures arose when he attempted
to sell securities purchased or held
in trust by Americans for the Ger
man owners These were obtained
by court libels. The position Of the
government was that valid con
tracts for such transfers were not
made and the property therefore is
subject to seizure. Millions OF dol
lars were involved in the suits.
The cases involved the seizure Of
securities alleged to be the property
Of the Munich Insurance Company,
Bavsrian corporation: the Frank
fort General Insurance Company,
the Alliance Insurance Company
and the Mannheim Insurance Com
pany. In all cases the securities in
question had been transferred under
a deed OF trust before the war to
American interests, in order that
business might be carried on in this
country in conformity with varioV-
State laws

COVERING BOOSTS
MARKET in WHEAT
Closes at 31z to 4 Cents High
er After Much Buying
By Traders.

CHICAGO. Jan. 24.-Heavy cover
ing by shorts throughout the ses-
sion gave strength to the wheat
market today and the finish was
ga to 4 cents higher. A belief that
prices had declined far enough pre-
vailed before the market opened
and this resulted in decreased SELL
ing pressure, increased buying
power and higher prices. There
was much buying by traders who
have been active on the selling side
recently. Part of this was to cover
short sales and some OF it for in
vestment account. Some profit TAX
ing by locals toward the finish
caused prices to react slightly and
the close was a little below the top
prices of the day.
Large receipts which threatened
to push prices down a bit were of
set in corn by good support which
continued throughout the day, the
close showing gains of 1S cents.
Short covering was a considerable
factor.
Higher price levels were estab-
Iished in oats with the close q to
y cent higher. The trade was fea-
tured by buying on the part of a
concern with Eastern connections
and selling by a broker acting for
Winnipeg interests. The volume Of
business transacted was good and
local, purchases were encouraged by
the better tone of corn and wheat.
Rye was IA cent higher and bar
ley gained II cent.
Aside from May ribs, which were
IA cents lower, provisions closed
slightly higher. The market was
helped some by the firmness in
grain.

practices would be held Tuesday and
that the high school gridders might
be taken on for scrin1mage Tuesday

able to complete arrangements as
yet with Coach Stenger. The high
school lads will have the advantage
of an added week of practice over the
collegians.
AS far as weight is concerned the
r. H. s. aggregation will not be at q
disadvantage for they can put a group
of huskies on the line that will about
equal anything that Move can ad
vance The scrimmage will give the
Quaker instructor the opportunity Of
trying out the various candidates fol
his line jobs.
Among the late arrivals on the Earl
ham squad are the Prevo brothers
