SUCCESSFUL
IBy Associated Press. ]

San Francisco, July 3O.-Joseph
Vending. the former janitor of St.
Johns Parochial school at Louisville.
KY, who is charged with the murder
of S-year-old Alma kellner, was ar
rested in this city today.
Upon being arrested he admitted
his identity to the police.
Vending was captured in a Third
Street lodging house by Detectives
Ryan and Burke of the local depart
ment. He made no resistance and ad
mitted to the officers while on the
way to the city prison that he was
Vending.
Chief of Police Martin. District At
torney Fickert and two detectives are
now with the man in prison, attempt
ing to secure a confession.
Vending stoutly maintains that
he is innocent of the crime. He de-
nies that he ever heard of the name
OF Alma Kellner. He says he left
Louisville on January Is. fully four
months before the mutilated body of
the child was found, because of
quarrel which he had with his bro
ther-in-iaw, Louis Arnold He re-
fused to say a word that would in any
way connect him with the death Of
the child, although confronted with
all the evidence that has been gath
cred by the Louisville officers.
To the police Vending talked as
cody as though he had never been
charged with any crime. He was
absolutely unmoved under the ques-
tioning: but he faces an ordeal of
sweating" and the detectives are
hopeful of extracting more informa-
tion from him.
The capture of Vending was due
to a report given to the detectives by
a note from some unknown person.
The note stated that Vending would
be found at Gal Third street. That
was three days ago, and when the de-
tectives went to the place they found
only a vacant lot.
Adjoining this vacant lot, however.
is the lodging house at 345 Third
street, and there Vending was dis
covered today. hiding under a sink
in the kitchen. The place was con-
Quoted by a French woman, who in
sisted that no man answering to the
description of Vending had ever
styed there.
Vending is charged with the muir
der of Alma Kellner, the S-year-old
niece of Frank Fehr, wealthy Louis
Vile brewer. A reward of $4,000 has
been offered for the capture of Wend-
ling. so certain are the Louisville au-
thorities of his guilt. The child went
to the school on December S last. to
attend mass. She was not seen again
until her mutilated body was found
in the basement of the school build
ing on March 80. There was every
indication that the child had been
murdered and her body hidden in an
effort to conceal the crime.

JULY WHEAT
MARKET IS
GIVEN JOLT
GRy Associated Press. !

Chicago. July 3O.-July wheat,
medium OF small corner generally
ladi at the door of o. IL. Waterman
of Albany, n. Y, was in a state of
violent agitation on this, the last day
for trading in the delivery. The mar
ket closed yesterday at lO9h. At
opening of the Board of Trade today
quotations ranged from l07 to 1O6.
Within a few minutes there was a
further plunge to 1O3 y. The fight
is said to be between Waterman, with
possible allied interests, and a big
brokerage house.
The opening decline was said to be
the result OF an attempt of short in
terests, said to represent about 500
600 bushels, to shake out any timid
holders. who might be trailing the
leading bull, and possibly to impress
the latter himself.
During he first hour, however, the
drive seemed unsuccessful, for very
little wheat was shaken out, and the
price rebouuded to 107. All hope of
the shorts that the Board of Trade
would relieve the situation by allow
ing deliveries to be made from wheat
on the switch tracks was abandoned,
although the boadr's frequent dec
larations against corners had led to
the belief in some quarters that

Normally. July wheat should be at
discount as compared with Septem-
Der wheat, but the price today was
about 4 to . cents premium for July.

Secretary Ballinger Orders Complete Investiga-

Irrigation and Power Co.---Shafroth Called
from Denver.

Since the announcement by The
Sentinel few days ago of the ar
rival in this city of Ralph S. Kelley
and Il. i. Atwell of the secret ser
vice of the land department of the
government, there has been much
speculation regarding the nature of
the business that has brought them
20 this city.
With the arrival of Governor John
T. Shafroth the interest has been ac-
Centuated, as it is known that Gov
ernor Shafroth is counsel for the en-
trymen of the Redlands and also for
the Redlands Irrigation & Power
Company. 1t is also known that ii
was Ralph S. Kelley who first Sc
cured the Information in the Red
lands case that brought the case be
fore the land department OF the gov
ernment.
1t has been ascertained today that
the two government agents of the
secret service of the land department
are here for the purpose OF holding
conferences with the entrymen on
the Redlands and that Governor Shat
roth is participant in those confer
enceS. The two agents have been
meeting with the entrymen for the
Cipal conference is being held today.
The document which has sent these
agents of the government here to
hold conferences with the entrymen
is perhaps the last official utterance
on the Redlands cases, and is issued
by Richard A. Ballinger, secretary of
. the interior, and directed to Freder-
ick bennett, the honorable commits
sioner of the general land office.

This afternoon the job department
of the Daily Sentinel completed the
1000 premium lists for the Mesa
County Industrial & Fruit Fair asso-
citation. The list comprises 100 pages
and is as fine work as has ever been
turned out in this city of that class
of work. The work was done in an
incredibly short time and is two
months ahead almost of.the date of
the fair. During the time that this
work was under way a number of
other big jobs have gone out from
The Sentinel job rooms, which could
not have been done with the equip
ment of several years ago. With the
equipment of the plant at the present
time, almost any kind of work may
be undertaken and done in a cred ita-
BILE manner. There is nothing too
big or too elaborate for The Sentinel
to do in the job line.
