this appeal waa taken,- not with any ex

States supreme court In decision ren
dered by Justice Holmes . today upheld
the- legality oftransactlona for future
delivery on the Chicago board of trade,
and declared that the board had m right
to protect Its quotation on grains there

In the lower courts the decisions
were generally, favorable to the board
of trade, but when appealed to the
higher . courts the decisions would In
variably be changed.
' The argument made by the board of
trade Is that It la a closed corporation.
That Its "business, although much of a
public nature, was for the benefit of the
members only. .Its quotations were con
sidered Its private property, and the
argument was made that the taking of
them by the bucket shops waa the same
aa stealing merchandise out of a store
or a locomotive from a railroad.
