BUSINESS BETTER
THAN IT WAS THIS
TIME LAST YEAR

A round of the local wholesale
houses will convince the most pessi-
mistic that Paducah merchants and
business institutions, regardless of the
hard times, are doing the best busl-
ness in their history for the season OF
the year. Two of the largest whole
sale groceries report January bust
ness showing a handsome increase
over last year, and other wholesale
houses make equally as satisfactory
reports. The postoffice probably is
showing the incest increase in bust
ness. Receipts for the month Of jan
uary were $1,000 more than last year
The postal receipts probably are the
best barometer of business, as they
quickly reflect prosperity or depres-
sion; so viewed from this point of
observation the volume of business
being transacted in Paducah Is greater
than a year ago.
Conditions are gradually getting
back to normal with all the manufac-
turn concerns. and an era of better
times IL apparently dawning.

ward of 1000 is offered for the ar
rest Of the murderer.
The murderer's name as given by

Croft, alias Fatty" County Judge
~. r. Lightfoot was counsel for
|Groff, County Attorney Alben Bark
ley for the commonwealth and Hal
IS. Corbett was employed by PATROL
men johnson and Cross to assist in
holding him.
The evidence was heard on tn.
suggestion of Judge Lightfoot, that
after the evidence was heard, II the
counsel for the prosecution was not
satisfied that Croft should be sent
back to Jail, and the trial held Mon
day morning before Judge Cross. The
police officials have mailed letters TO
the California police. but no reply has
been received, and II is thought an
answer may be had by Monday.
The strength Of the defense lay In
II. S. Rowland, states attorney for
Rlchland county, Illinois, at olney,
where Groff lived and w. c. Groff,
the father OF Groff, who is a farme
near olney. MIR. Rowland testified
that A. n. Groc's wife was burned TO
death last March about the time the
murder was committed. and that he
saw Grotf frequently. Croft went to
Rowland's Office in settling the estate
.of HIS wife. He said Croft was a
country boy. and was not any worse
than the average country boy.
w. {. Groff. the boys father. testi-
led that Grof was at home last March
and his testimony was along the line,
OF Mr.. Rowland. Gron testified that
after his wifes death he had roved
over the country. but had never been

Gus, but his testimony did not throw
any light on the crime, for which he
is held.
After the completion of the evil
dence County Attorney Barley saiA
he believed Groff was the wrong man.
Mr.. Corbett thought Croft should be
held until Monday az least, that some
thing may be heard from California.
