MONTICELLO, n. Y, December %. =
The death of Melvin H. Couch, a promi-
nent lawyer and former district attorney
of Sullivan county, revealed today that,
unknown to his family and friends and to
his clients, a woman had lived for three
years in a secret room connecting with
his law Office. Couch was found yester-
day lying dead on his Office lounge.
Death was due to rupture of blood
vessel near the heart. In the next room
crouched a frightened woman, who adj
mitted she had seen him die. but insisted
she was not responsible for his death.

Goshen, n. Y, and that the secret room
had been her only home during the three
years
Couch was sixty-five years old. The
woman is forty. Her hair has begun
to turn gray She was poorly dressed.
She said she had lived in the place
voluntarily and had never gone out In
the daytime At rare intervals she
went for walk at night.
The woman was held on u technical
charge, but the coroner's verdict as to
the cause of COUGHS death supported her
assertion that she was not responsible.
The attorney, she said. died or a ruptufeo

Miss Brance said she first met Couch
three years ago, when she called at his
office to sell books. The lawyer S
friends remember that about this time
he had the room where she was found
cut off from his Office by heavy par
tition.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, December 2o-Better snow
protection for the winter crop had q
bearish effect on today's wheat market.
Large shipments from Russia and the
Danube counted also against the bulls.
There were also reports from India that
light showers had fallen. Prices opened
Il on to like amount up, and generally
sagged to well below Saturdays level all
around.
Corn poured into Chicago from all direc-
tons today and pulled prices down. Fine
weather for handling deprived the mar
ket of support Opening prices were a
shade to AaS lower and there was a
subsequent material decline.
Scattered buying failed to uphold oats.
Corn weakness proved the chief influence.
Provisions went higher owing to the
fact that hog receipts were not plentiful.

with an additional rise later.

weakened the corn market still more. The
close was steady at 3saA to 13ass net de-

out brokers had a considerable volume
of orders TO fill from the liquidating longs
that apparently had accumulated over

port of Saturday.

The market later was quiet, with a
small but steady demand. which put the
trading months three 10 four points over
Saturdays last quotations. Private
messages from Liverpool were bullish.
and predicted buying by spinners at
current levels For awhile the market
had a steady tone. but liquidation of
long cotton came in again and bearish
trades. seeing the effect it was having,
began TO sell short cotton rather freely.
This resulted in a quick break of about
i points.
At noon prices were at their lowest.

ders. The opening was easy at de-
cline of TO 10 points, with January
contracts selling at lis, or us points
below the recent high level There was
heavy realizing by recent sellers at

GENEVA, December IL, 1919
By "a votes to 72 the synod OF the

faculty of theology. This decision means
that in future women who obtain their
theological degree at university will be
entitled like men to the status of clergy

Two years ago the synod Of the canton
of Grisons took a similar step. and al

now become pastors Of congregations
shows the value Of the non-militant prop
