.Slnnor Feilee Ferrero VIII Be Guest AZ
\ Monday Luncheon Thursday.
On Thursday, Nov. 8, Signor Felice
Ferrero, of Milan, Italy, who Is visit.
ing this city as a guest of the Bur-
roughs Adding Machine Co., will ad.
dress the Exporters association at a
MONDAY luncheon on American ex.
ports and European markets" Hav.
ing spent a number OF years In per-
sonal investigation of this subject,
both In Europe and the United States,
Signor Ferrero's remarks will be Of
unusual value to Detroit business men.
Signor Ferrero is at present,the edi.
torial correspondent in the United
States OF the Corriere della Sera, of
Milan, Italy. The Corriere is ranked
as the hrst newspaper in Italy, and
since its establishment In 1875 has
shown a steady growth in importance
and circulation.
In the fall of 1899 Signor Ferrero
paid his first visit to the United States
after the attainment of his degree Of
doctor OF science from the University
OF Turin, being attracted to this coun-
try by the broad opportunities for the
study of political and economic con
ditions.
During his stay in the United States
he has lived in New York, San Fran
cisco and Portland, Oregon, be-
sides having travelled extensively
through the south. In 1908 he was
recalled by the Corriere to serve as
It's special representative in Berlin.
After finishing this work he spent
some time in Milan doing editorial
work on a technical magazine. In
February, 1909. he again returned to
the United States as editorial CORE
spondent for the Milan paper, and
since his return has spent great
deal of time travelling through the In
dustrial centers of Massachusetts, and
Pennsylvania.
After leaving Detroit, Signor Fer
zero will visit WiIkesbarre, Pa, where
he is TO make some original investi'
cations on behalf OF the italian min
ers.

say, they saw Knobloch hand the $500
to Yeandle. They Immediately pounc-
ed upon Yeandle and Timondoffer and
placed them under arrest. Yeandle
was hurriedly "frisked" and $500 in
marked bills were found by the de-
tectives.
Facing a possible verdict that will
send him to the death chair, Edward
IT. Rosenheimer, millionaire, was
manifestly nervous when his trial
for murder in the first degree
was resumed today Rosenheim-
ers present plight grows out
OF an automobile accident on Aug. 18
last. At that time a high-powered car
which he was driving struck and de-
molished a light buggy on Pelham
Parkway, killing Grace Hough and
seriously injuring the other two &C.
cupants OF the light vehicle.
Rosenheimer is the second driver OF
an automobile to be tried for murder
following an automobile accident in
the history OF the automobile indus
try. The first was Edward Darragh
whose taxicab ran down a young girl
and who is now serving term in

The Rosenheimer jury is composed
Of prominent business men, selected
from a special list None of the Jur-
ors owns automobiles, that being a
condition both sides insisted on. One
OF the jurors George w. Yeandle,
was q member of the jury that tried
Nan Patterson for the murder of Caes-
ar Young, and which could not agree
on verdict.
In his opening address to the jury,
Assistant District Attorney Maynard
recited the story of the death OF Miss
Hough. According to his version. she,
with Miss Anna McCabe and George
Vedder, we're driving along Pelham
Parkway, keeping well to the side OF
the road. Rosenheimer with his ma
chine running more than sixty miles
an hour, according to the prosecution,
struck the buggy from behind.
Miss Hough was killed and the two
others were so badly injured that they
are still compelled to go about on
crutches. Instead OF stopping to see
II he could aid the victims Of the &C.
cident, Maynard said, Rosenheimer
put on power and ran away. But for

houses will be a distinct addition to the
handsome colony of homes at Chevy

The announcement by our company of
the increase of, 5 cents per foot on all

siderable activity in this section. This in
crease is made necessary by the rapidity
with which the few remaining lots have
been sold. the company having at the
present time comparatively few to offer
This condition is not only highly
gratifying to those who have already pur-
chased. but is the best possible argument
