Tariff Delay Gives
Strength to Wool

BOSTON, June 20-Western primary
wool markets continue to absorb the in
terest of buyers. Operations the past
week have been mostly confined to deal
ers at somewhat higher figures. Unex-
pected delay in the passage of the tariff
bill has proved in a way to be a source
Of strength to values, and the further il
goes the more probable cost of the
new clip woods. The chance of manu-
facturers needing supplies before free
wool is available becomes greater as the
threat of the Senators to delay the pass
age Of the bill takes shape Sales here
are being quietly made, but hints are
given that the aggregate of domestic
wool changing hands is much larger
than dealers will admit. Foreign woods
are very quiet

Of MOON
IS BLAMED FOR
HAUG SUICIDE

BROWNSVILLE, oct. 17.-All the
mystery connected with the death
here last Monday Of Miss Dorothy
Haug, the pretty young Naldosta
stenographer, was cleared up Thurs
day after the Coroner's Jury. in re-
convened session, had heard the re
port of f. c. Peace, of the Pinkerton
detective office in Atlanta.
His report, which followed a visit
to Bainbridge was regarded as con-
elusive evidence that the girl com
mitted SUICIDE, and verdict was rem
dered in accordance with his testi-
mony, diverting suspicion from an in
noCent man.
The depressing effect upon Miss
Haug's mind Of the full moon. which
aggravated a mental complaint and
a disappointment in love are said to
have been the causes Of the tragedy.
owen Baxter, of Dothan, Ala, is
said to have been engaged to Miss
Haug but the burning Of her love
letters the evening preceding her
death leaves an element of doubt as
to whether he was the man upper
most in her affections.
Feeling Was High.
Feeling was high here when Peace
arrived from Atlanta Wednesday
morning. At that time the Coroner's
Jury had already rendered a verdict
that Dorothy Haug had been muir
dered by an unknown party and il
would not have been possible to con-
vince people here that the girl had
not been slain had not Peace insist
ed on a thorough examination Of the
skull, which revealed the presence Of
the bullet, fired by the girl into her
left temple The missile, which had
imbedded itself in the brain in the
back of her head, dropped to the floor
when the skull was removed.
When Chief of Police Milton al
mitted himself bafiled, Dr. j. 7. Gull
