Potatoes are at big price, the
reason being short crops But for
the importation of a low grade of
English potatoes, dealers say, that
New York would be experiencing a

Standard Oil company has raised the
price OF oil one cent gallon. This
is one cent more than was paid when

The slight increase in the price of

EMBALMER FOUND
UNCLE'S BODY

HALIFAX, May 1.-Out of the ST.
lence OF death that hung over the
hugo temrerars panrgue rhere the
bodies of the Titanic victims lay In
long still rows, sudden, deep
throated "Oh, my God" rang huskily
when George Newell, embalmer, dis
covered that he was working on the
body of his uncle.
Newell, one of the undertakers
brought here from Yarmouth to aid
the local undertakers, was on the
watch that worked through the night,
preparing the salt-stained, sea-worn
bodies that the anxious mourners
waiting to identify loved ones might
not be too much shocked by the
sight of their dead Through the ear
ly part of the night he had worked
swiftly and had prepared two bodies
and sent them out to the room where
the little group of anxious friends
and relatives waited.
About midnight Newell, moving
down the tier of coffins. with his as
sistant, was assigned to new body.
Taking his instruments and parapher-
MALTA he arranged them by the side Of
the stand. Then he reached out and
lifted the heavy weather-beaten can
vas that hid the face. The next mo-
ment he clutched his assistant by
the arm and in a husky whisper that
sounded strangely loud through the
silence OF the death he announced:

In long Interview announced that
the fact that the president secured
the majority OF the preferential bal
lots cast, would be the groundwork
for the contest.
Ii was not until late this afternoon
that the result was completely clear
ed up. 1t was then found the Taft
forces had Won nine of the fourteen
districts, only to lose the four dele
gates at large because Of the presence
on the ticket OF Taft candidate for
delegate who was not endorsed by
the machine

Roosevelt Don't Want Their,

Vi
OYSTER BAY, May In state
n,ent issued this afternoon Colonel
Roosevelt announced that he will not
insist on the delegates at large from
Massachusetts voting for him. He
stated that, in as much as President
Taft secured the majority in the pre-
ferential primaries vote, he will with
draw from the contest in that state
SO far as the delegates at. large are
concerned. This will give Roosevelt
only ten of the Massachusetts, dele
gates.
The text of the statement was as
follows
In Massachusetts the ballot con-
tanned the names OF eight candidates
for delegates at large printed under
each the words pledged to Theodore
Roosevelt, and 1t also contained a
column in which the voter was to en-.
press his preference as to whether
/ or Mr.. Taft should be nominated as
president. It would seem unlikely
that majority of the voters coufo
both vote for the delegate pledged to
me and at the same time express
preferences for Mr.. Taft but appar-
emily that Is what has happened.
