k|EFER MURDER
SUSPECT LOCATED
Kelly Reed, Arrested at Baxter Springs
Declares His innocence.

Baxter Springs, Kans., Jan. g.
After being trailed from Keifer, Okla.
to Neosho, Mo-, then to Lowell, Kans.
Kelly Reed, alias Teddy Youngblood
was arrested at the latter place Mon
day in connection with the murder
January of Ella Brown, years old
at Keifer, Okla.
He denies knowing OF the crime and
has consented to accompany officers
to Keifer They will start for that
place early Tuesday morning.
Reed was located in the home of his
step-father, David Sweeten, at Lowell
a village four miles west of here. He
was trailed there by f. j. Bays, SUI
perlntendent of detective agency at
Muskogee, and one of the Bays oper
atives After he had been located the
officer, accompanied by City Marshal
Henry Horton of Baxter Springs, sur
prised him in the Sweeten residence
placed him under arrest and brought
him here He was placed under spe
cial guard in the Baxter Springs jail
Monday night.
Detective Bays declares Reed was
employed by a family named Bungard
as wood chopper. The Bungard and
Brown families, he says, lived in the
same vicinity, and that Reed was ac'
quainted with the little girl he is al
legged to have slain.
Reed left the neighborhood about
the time the crime was committed, the
officer says, and he believes that blood
hounds were on his trail short time
losing the scent on account of his
tracks becoming cold. He is supposed
to have gone Immediately to Neosho,
where he remained but a short time,
before going to Lowell.
When arrested, Reed refused to ac-
company the two officials to Oklahoma
without requisition papers. Sweeten,
his step.father, persuaded him to do
SO, however, after a lengthy conference
in the Baxter Springs Jail
Reed is widely known in this vi
cinity. He is said to have gone to
Keifer some time ago.

CORNERS ILLEGAL
SAYS HIGH COURT
Monopolies in Clothing And Food Vic,
late the Antitrust Law.
o 100000 90 oo o 5000

Washington, Jan. 6.-The supreme
court of the United States today laid
down the far-reaching principle that
corners" OF interstate commodities,
such as articles of clothing and food,
are in violation of the Sherman anti
trust law, and held that as far as the
Sherman law was concerned, the in
dictment in the New York federal
court of James Patten, Eugene G.
Scales, Frank II. Hayne and William
p. Brown for 'conspiring to run an
alleged cotton corner" was valid The
case against them was sent back for
trial on other proceedings. Justice
Vandevanter announced the opinion
of the court. Justice Lurton delivered
dissenting opinion, in which Chief
Justice White and Justice Holmes con
CURED.
Justice Vandevanter replied to the
argument that running a corner stimu-
lates instead of restrains interstate
trade by saying that this might be
true for a time. but that the corner
was forbidden by the act because it
thwarted the usual operation of laws
of supply and demand, withdrew the
commodity from the normal current of
trade, enhanced prices and produced
practically the same evils as the sup
preston of competitions.

DAVENPORT IS IN
PUzZL|NG DILEMMA
Third District Congressman is Mixed
Up in the State Senate
Fight.

Oklahoma City, Jan. 6.-The efforts
of Congressman James S. Davenport
OF the Third district to have John
Crawford, of Ada, elected speaker of
the lower house, may result disastrous
ly for the Vinita man if the threats of
the Muskogee delegation here working
in behalf of Harvey Maxey are carried
out According to the story told in the
lobbies here, Congressman Davenport
and Carter made a deal in Washing
ton whereby they would control the
election of a speaker of the house.
They both wrote letters to their
friends throughout the state, urging
the selection of Crawford, and this act
has aroused much bitter feeling among
the other candidates, especially among
the supporters of the Muskogee man,
who declare that unless Davenport
supported the man from his own dis.
trict he should have kept his hands
out of the fight.
Davenport Replies.
Twenty-Five prominent Muskogee
men who are here working for Maxey,
Saturday sent telegram to Daven-
port, telling him to either keep his
hands off or to support Maxey. Sun
day an answer was received from the
Vinita man, telling him that his friend
ship for Crawford was of long stand
ing and 'if you understood my posi-
ton you would not be angry with
me-
The Muskogee delegation are mad
in earnest and if they succeed in
making Maxey speaker they will, ac-
cording to their own statements, see
that Mr. Davenport is placed in a con-
gressional district that will make
much trouble for him.
Muskogee Man for Congress.
The Muskogee men do not want
Davenport to be in the same district
as Muskogee and at least one Musko-
gee man who is here working for
Maxey is ambitious to represent this
state in congress. This is District
Judge r. c. Allen of Muskogee, who
will undoubtedly be a candidate from
Muskogee two years hence.
