CHICAGO. June ls.-The corn pit was
again the scene of a turbulent mob OF
grain spectators to-day. Prices scared
skyward under the manipulation OF the
crowd that has cOrnered July options
and as quickly dropped with a thud.
In the first ten minutes advances of

the prices slumped 2 cents.
Private elevators are making contract
corn as fast as possible in order to
grade in and overcome the congested
condition. In three days 10000 bushels
have been made,
Just as earnest is the big bull clique

play somewhere in the deaths of
Clarence Foster and Miss Lawrence.

ordered that the body of young Fo5-
ter be exhumed this afternoon, and
that an autopsy be performed at once.
DR.. John A. Benjamin, of Riverhead,

Il feel at this time that a warrant
for Louis Disbrow's arrest should be
issued Immediately"
This statement was made this af-
ernoon by District-Attorney Smith
to an Evening World reporter.
Fosters body was taken from the
grave shortly after 2.3o o'clock.
The Distr.ct-Attorney reached here
at 11.3O and was met by Coroner Nu-
gent and Pinkerton Detective Fields.
The three were driven to the Wells
House, where they entered a private
and remained in conference for
over two hours.
The mystery was discussed in all
it's phases. The detective made a
verbal report of his Investigations,
and the District-Attorney, after
o,,iI;o,;,i,- hip,.oIf u,;tb all tho do
tails of the case, took personal charge
of it.
1t was decided that the investiga-
tors should ride out to Tunnels Inn
and there go over the entire ground.
Before leaving for Tunnels Mr..
Smith made his statement to The
Evening World reporter.
The District-Attorney said he had
heard nothing from the DisbroNs
thus far to-day. He believed, he adj
ded, that they've had abundant time
in which to make good all the bad
debts of the missing nan and that he
should have been produced here to-
day.
Roland B. Miles. a lawyer Of North
port, representing Louis Disbrow, ar
rived here late this afternoon to see
District Attorney Smith. The District
Attorney was out at Tunnels Inn at
the time and the lawyer left the follow

BOATMAN TELLS
STORY OF MURDER
ON I,IANNA BAY.

Here is the story told by Otto
Schwanecke, a boatman of Centre
Moriches, who says that last Monday
night he saw young Clarence Foster
and "Dimple" Lawrence killed, after
a battle on the moonlit waters of
Tianna Bay.
Last Monday night Schwanecke lay
asleep in of the feet of catboats
anchored on the west shore Of Tian-
ma Bay, not more than 500 feet north
of Tunnels boat landing. He had
gone down the bay in a fiat skin to
get over the bar early on a fishing
trip. The night was chilly and he
left the skiff and lay for shelter in
the well of n Of the yachts.
1t was long after midnight when he
was awakened by a mans cry. Peer
ing over the stern of the boat, ne
saw in the middle of the bay two
boats. In one stood a man calling
to a boat ahead in which were a man
anu WOIndu.
THE BOATS CRASH.
The boats came together with a
crash, and the mar beside the woman
sprang to his feet. The skiff careen-
ed and seemed about to capsize.
Sit down or we'll upset." screamed
the woman, and dragging the man
down she righted the boat.
Angry words passed between the
men. but the wind was blowing in
shore. and Schwanecke could not
catch what was said.
Then in the clear moonlight, the
bayman says, he saw the fash OF an
oar through the air, 1t swept across
the woman and descended full on the
forehead OF her companion, knocking
him Into the water.
The woman screamed. Schwanecke
threw himself full length in the bot
tom OF the yacht. He was In an
agony OF fear and horror. Know
