LEXINGTON, June l0.-@There has been
much bitterness injected into the con-

speech this feeling has grown enormously.
until there are many cool-headed people
who believe trouble of serious character
will take place here tomorrow.
The city is fulHof strangers. Tonight
Evan Settle and bis Owen county friends
arrived here In large numbers. There will
be 5000 strangers in the city tomorrow.
and rs the feeling between the Owens and
Breckinridge fsctions is at white heat
there is no telling what the day will bring
forth. Nothing but politics is talked, and
the Interest is very great.

HAPPY AFTER YEARS
A New York Man Discovers His
Wife and Child.
SAD ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE


There as notable reunion at the
Hotel del Coronad0T Diego, Cal,
when William A. Martin, manager of the
New York Witness, met his wife and
child, for whom he has searched for the
past three years in all parts of the
world. Mrs. Martin, while revealing
by her strange absence that her mind
was affected, gave the lie that she left
home and evaded her husband through
her own will alone.
Martin will leave with his wife and
child tomorrow afternoon for their
New York home, accompanied by pri-
vate detective, who will guard the
party. Martin made a detailed site
ment of the facts in the case. He cor
roborated fully the account previously
given by DR.. Heydecker of the disap-
pearance of his wife, nearly three
years ago. He said:
81 am not, of course, familiar with
the details of DR.. Heydecker's fight
with the detectives at San Francisco,
and on the way to Coronado, but the
other parts of the story know to be
true. The wonderful success my wife's
lawyer has had in keeping her away
from her friends, while he was han
ling her estate, would not seem to be
remarkable If one were acquainted
with the laws of New York state, which
are very peculiar, and, as 1t happend in
this case, outrageous and unjust.
Under 1t he was not only not compelled
to tell me of my wife's whereabouts
but he was strictly forbidden to reveal
the address. l have absolutely no con.
troll of my wife's property, and there
fore, with her away, with power of at
tornay from her, he was master of the
situation. While Mrs. Martin has been
able to take care of herself, it is appar.
ent her mind is affected. l shall ask
for her examination: and If she is found
insane l wish the guardianship of the
children. Regarding her fortune,
wish 1t distinctly understood that
do not wish to be placed In charge Of
that. 1 will demand that it be placed
In the hands of trustees for the benefit
of her children"
DR.. Heydecker, who was with Martin
at the Hotel Coronado, received a tele
gram from Seth Sprague Terry threat
ening to sue him for defamation Of
character If the published interview
was correct, charging that Terry EN-
ployed detectives at San Francisco tt
obtain control of Mrs. Martin, and tha
the detective, Mettler, employed b!
DR.. Heydecker, had been bought off By
Terry.
"Terry is welcome to all the satisfac
tion he can get from me-" said DIR
Heydecker. my proof that Teri,
tried to secure possession of Mrs. Mar
tin is positive, and Terry knows It."

MADE OF PURE SILVER.
Dangerous Counterfeit Half Dollars Are
In Circulation.

Dangerous Counterfeit Half Dollars Are
In Circulation.
SAN FRANcIsco, June Secret Ser
vice Agent Harris is studying out prob
lem in counterfeiting that is without
parallel In his experience.
He has reason to believe that there
Is gang either In this city or in the
interior engaged in making Hfty-cent
pieces out of pure coin silver, each piece
being trihe lighter than the genuine
coin.
The discovery was made over week
ago. Three of the counterfeit coins
were turned into the cashier Of the
Suffer street railroad by one Of the con-
ductors In one day. The coins locked
SO fresh AMI new that the cashier was
disposed to examine them somewhat
closely. He thought they seemed trI-
fie light, and to make sure he notified
Harris. The detective examined the
coins and pronounced them counterfeits.
They were sent to the chief OF the SER
vice.
"The profit In this peculiar kind Of
counterfeIting," said Agent Harris, dis
not so large as when base metal Is used.
The silver In genuine half-dollar is
worth about 22 cents. 1t weighs 900
grains hne, whereas this counterfeit
weighs about 1926 grains. The differ-
ence in weight ia accounted for nv tho
fact that very heavy, powerful ma
chinerY, that the counterfeiters cannot
possibly have, is required to roll and
press the silver so as to make 1t Of the
standard thickness. On each counter
felt the profit is from rs to 20 cents"
Agent Harris has gone to work on the
case, although the clews are scant and
the chances of finding the counterfeit
ers are correspondingly small.

WASHINGTON, June 9.-Representative
William A. Stone of Pennsylvania has
submitted majority report on the in
vestigation of Judge Jenkins decision
against Northern Pacific employees. The
report Is signed by Messrs. Ray and
Powers. 1t takes the ground that If
the judge had been corrupt or violated
his evident duty, then the majority
should recommend mpeachment, but as
the majority gives him credit for sim
certify of purpose, no action should be
taken by congress until the higher
court decides what the law is on an APP
peal from jenkins.

PRICES OF WHEAT.

The Fluc:u ions Between the Years
1877 and 1867.
Persons whose business it is to buy
and sell or raise wheat will be inter-
ester in the following list of prices of
this staple at intervals of a few years
from 1877 up to 1857. The statement is
furnished by ]. r. Cameron & Co., and
is copied from the Royal Intelligencer,
printed at Stanford, England, October
IA, 1905. The difference in prices
covers wide range, as might be ex-
pected from the great length of; time
included. The price given is the
average price fox the year named, un-
less the extremes are given:
The price of wheat per bushel In Eng
land in 1927 was s1.s3; In 1899 it was
$1.33, but fell to 10 cents; in 1909,
81 10; In 1916, $685. in 1e47, 81. 80; In
1857, $3.50. In 1870 wheat started In
at. So 80 and rose to $12.4O, the highest
price on record. In 1872 it was still
up to SO 80, but In 1886 1t started at %
cents and rose to 81 So. This was re-
versed in 1917, when it started at 81 81
and fell to Ga cents. There have been
no such high prices and fluctuations
since. In 1897 the price was SO. so per
bushel; in 1925, SLAP; in 1649 81. 43
In 1877, 81 12; in 1891, 81 72; In ITO,
$1.90, and in 1857, S1.44.
= In Queen Mary's time the uniform
price was a5& cents per bushel, and
the highest price In Queen ElIzabeth's
reign was 81 per bu.hel, for one year
only.
Judge Blackstone's calculation is
that 300 years ago IS would purchase as
much provisions as can be obtained
now for $50, and SO In Queen Anne's
reign would buy as much as IS now.
