FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL

New York. Jan. 1.-The superficial character of existing conditions in the ,to-k market was sJrikingly illustrated today by the widely divergent course of speculative favorites, somewhat to the setrinent or neglect of the more repre- tentative shares.

EARLY TRIAL OF PLAYERS INDICTED IN BASEBALL SCANDAL

Chicago, Jan. 12-With the various league and interleague dlsagreements settled at today'S baseball meetings, the cub owners, Judge kenesaw M. Landis, baseball commissioner and the states attorneys office tonight began formulation of plans which 1t was ex- pected would result in an early trial of the men indicted for conspiracy in the alleged throwing of games in the 1919 worlds series and which it was hoped would stamp out gambling and game throwing in baseball.
 George German, assistaRt states at torney who has been placed in charge of the baseball case, announced that the indicted men would be arraigned about Feb. l and that an immediate trial would be held so that the case could be disposed of before the base ball season opened.
 The American league appropriated $10,000 to be used in the prosecution of the men, and Judge Landis issued statement saying that even if the men were found not guilty they would not necessarily be allowed to return to organized baseball. The minor leagues started their campaign by Vot- ing to take action against players who have taken part in games on the Pa cific coast with Fred McMullin, an indicted Chicago White SoX player, and by suspending coast players recently indicted.
 MT. German, in announcing his plans to have the men arraigned by Feb. said he had been reading the gran6 jury testimony and that its length haC delayed the case. The testimony to- tailed more than 800, 900 words, he said
 Whether the accused men are found i guilty or innocent, the trial will re suit in the stamping out of gambling, said Judge Landis, for suita ble actiol | will be taken against any men wht | have not acted justly in fulfilling thei :! contracts.

LIBERTY BOND MARKET
CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

Chicago, Jan. 12.-Evidence of compe- tition between millers and exporters led to sharp upturn in the wheat market today. Prices at the finish, although un- settled, were 3-4 to 1-4 net higher, with March $1s2 to $1S2 1-4 and May 3-4 to 173. Corn gained 1-2 to 3-4 oats 1-4 to 3-S, and provisions 10 to BOG.
 On the advance wheat for May deliv- cry touched the highest price yet this season. In connection with the upturn in values, particular interest was at tached to news that Minneapolis mills were buying hard winter wheat in Ne braska- where of late most of the export shipments of wheat have been obtained. An apparent pause in export buying ear ly in the day had a transient bearish in fluence and so too did gossip that the Argentine export tax would be removed. Word of any change in Argentina, how ever, failed to become public and con- siderable fresh export business n the United States developed during the last part of the day. Gossip that Texas mills were after wheat in Kansas and that flour demand showed improvement were additional bullish factors.
 Corn and oats swayed with wheat Advances were checked by heavy hedging sales of corn. On the other hand, export buying of corn continued

matter. But want you to know that either must have power to take such action as wish. or else you had better seek a new commissioner. I wouldn't take this job for all the gold in the world unless knew my hands were to be free.'
 On motion of President Johnson, the major leagues voted to substitute the word take for recommend but it was found that the minors were not in official session and the matter would have to go through their drafting com mittee again.
 Representatives of minor leagues in a standing vote assured the judge that they had considered recommend" the game as take" in that they were bound to abide by his decisions but that as soon as the agreement could be formally taken up again the word would be changed and they would sign
 Tonight the major leagues signed the contract with Judge Landis mak- ing him commissioner for seven years at $5o,0 900 a year. The national agree ment will remain in effect so long as Judge Landis is commissioner.
 Judge Landis, however, has stipulat- ed that his salary of $7,500 a year as judge should be deducted from his baseball salary, so he actually will get only 800 a year from baseball.
 The new agreement also" provides for restoration of the draft with the prices sealed down from s5,000 for class A leagues to s1,000 for class D. The American association and the New International leagues remained out of the draft while Pacific coast league, the, other class AA organiza- tion went in.
 New nlayers' contracts covering what the club owners termed the ethics of the game" were approved by the majors.
 One clause in the new form of con- tract provides that the player pledges loyalty to his club and pledges him. self to the American public to con form to high standards of fair play and good sportsmanship." The player also promises to abide by all decisions of the commissioner and to keep him. self in good physical condition throughout the season.
