RAW FURS LOWER.
Trappers Will Receive A Little Less
for Their Skins This Year.

The market prices Of the raw fur
skins OF animals such as are found in
Vermont, muskrats, mink, foxes, skunks,
raccoons and the like, are somewhat
lower than last season, although the
slump in the market probably will not
affect the price of made up furs as
NUTS, boas and coats sold now
are fashioned from skins bought at 1912
prices and the dealer must get back
what he paid to the trappers.
Before last season was over prices
had been pushed so far that they were
beyond the reach of the average pur-
chaser and the fur market, ever since
has been suffering from an overdose OF
prosperity The world s supply of furS
far exceeds the demand and the ridicu
lousy high prices that prevailed last
season are the cause of it.
The prices paid for skins of good
quality at present are as follows
Skunk 80 cents to $3.50; mink, $2.5t
TO So; raccoon, 81 to So; fox, $3.50 K
$3.50; muskrat, 40 cents to 30 cents
weasel, p cents to 81.

WOODSTOCK. Vt, Nov. 2o.-The
mystery surrounding the death of
Frank James Toby Of Lima, o., whose
BODY was found in q cornfeId on the
farm of Charles X. Thompson Oh the
afternoon of September -, last, was
solved late yesterday afternoon when
George Briggs, held in the Windsor
county Jail on the charge of perjury
during the inquest in September, con
fessed TO State S Attorney Raymon
Trainor of White River Junction that
he killed Toby ON the night OF August
% by striking him over the head with
u bottle
The confession, which is in writing.
states that both Briggs and Toby had
been drinking on the night of August
20 and that during a quarrel Briggs
struck his companion with the bottle
which contained the liquor.
The confession cleared one point
which troubled the county authorities.
The state S attorney and his assistants
had been working for weeks to locate
the place where Toby was probably
killed as the indications around the
spot where the body was found were
such as to lead the authorities To be
lieve that the man had been killed at
some other place and his body carried
to the Thompson cornheld.
This surmise ON the part of the au-
thorities proved correct for Briors. in
his confession. saws that he ana Toby
