MOTOR NUMBERS
Go OUT Of STYLE
New Number Plates of a Better
Design
M0T0RIST TO BE GIVEN TIME
State Is Unable to Provide Applicants
With License kumbers-Some
New Numbers Here.

Raus init the 1913 automobile num-
bers. They went out of date at mid
night Wednesday. That was the last
second that the 1913 licenses We're
good. A few Grand Rapids automo-
bile owners already have their new
numbers. Those who have declare
that they are an Improvement over
the 1913 numbers, because they are
of better makeup and are more dis
tinguishable.
The 1914 number plates are made
from one piece of sheet steel, the
number being pressed into relief in
stead of tackled on as they We're
in 1913. The background OF the mum
Der plate is enamaled white and the
numbers are enameled black, conse-
quently the Wisconsin number plate
have about all the contrast colors
will permit.
The new numbers are slightly
wider than the old ones, and the fact
that they are pressed from the steel
plate instead of tackled on to it will
make it easier for motorists to keep
them cIaan afpG. in serviceaihle shape.
No one will be arrested if he de-
ports himself On country roads or
city streets with the 1913 number
plate attached The state department
is so swamped with applications for
new numbers that it is impossible to
issue new numbers fast enough. The
fact that there are more automobiles
in service this winter than ever be
fore has only served to increase the
rush of applicants.
The law, leisurely interpreted, give
motorists time enough to get their
numbers and run with the old ones
on until they do, because the state
knows that before very much time
elapses new numbers will be procur-
ed. So apply for new numbers and
drive with the old ones until the
state sends you the new black and
white figures.

SHOT WHILE
HUNTING RABBITS
George Loock Shot in Right Leg
Sunday Afternoon

George Loock of this city was
shot in the leg, ankle and foot while
rabbit hunting near Seven mile creek
ON Sunday afternoon. A mystery
surrounds the affair as it is not
known who did the shooting. It is
thought that whoever fired the
shot, was either trying to kill Mr..
Locks dog or mistook it for a
rabbit. The dog was close to Mr..
Loock's right leg when the shot was
fired. The dog was killed and part
of the charge entered the right leg,
ankle and foot Of Loock. He was
brought 10 this city and received
medical attention. The wounds while
not serious are painful and will prob
ably keep Mr.. Loock confined to the
house week.

TRACE FOUND Of
MISSING MAN
Cap and One MItten of Frank
Wockocki Found in River

The finding on Tuesday of nit
ten and cap on the pond at Port
Edwards started wild rumor about
that the body of Frank Wockockl,
who disappeared on Dec. 20, had
been found. The mitten and cap
were identified as belonging to Wo-
ckocki. This bears out, somewhat
the theory that has been held by
some Of Wockocki's friends, that the
missing man had met with foul play.

Jury, Out All Night, Fails
to Agree and Are Discharged

Tired and disheveled but still I'M
able to agree as to the guilt or limo
cence of Virginia Kennedy, negress
the twelve constituting the jury that
heard the evidence against her in
uarter Cessions Court before Judge
Allen R. Shay yesterday afternoon
failed to agree and were discharged
this morning from further considera-
ton of the case after having been
locked up since o'clock yesterday
afternoon.
The Kennedy woman was charged
with having held up and robbed Theo-
dore A Loew, of 125 Malvern street.
in Academy street early on the morn
ing of November last, the day fol-
lowing last election day. Loew had
been downtown hearing the election
returns and was in Academy street
about a. m. when he met two ne
crosses. who after engaging him in
conversation robbed him of S12.
One of the negresses made her es-
cape, but Loew grabbed the Kennedy
woman and walked her to Washing
ton and Market streets, where he
turned her over to a policeman. Sam
uel A. Fishman. who defended the
woman, made the plea that Loew had
made a mistake and had grabbed the
wrong woman. the one who escaped
being the guilty party, he alleged.
Thr Kennedy woman was acquitted
on a similar charge about three
months ago, the jury at that time re-
naming out only ten MINUTES before
reaching a verdict.

Young New Years Suicide
Buried in POtter'S Field

Although his last act had been to
write to his parents, Jacob j. Kirch-
ner. a suicide, was buried among the
unclaimed dead in Potter's Field yes
terday afternoon.
Kirchner did not want his family to
take charge of his body. He did not
even want them to know where he
was buried. And he had his wish.
All he desired them to know was that
he was dead.
He committed suicide by inhaling
gas early New Years Day, an hour
or so after he had been the life of a
New Years party at $50 South Thir-
tenth street, where eh boarded.
He left two letters, apparently for
getting to mail them himself, one ad-
dressed to his parents and the other
to a sister in Canada. Both letters
were mailed by the authorities and
Kirchners body was held at Holes
morgue pending a reply. No reply
came.
Kirchner had promised his parents,
when he came to this country, that
he would make good" His failure
to meet their fond expectations drove
him to despair.

ANGRY BANKRUPT
PUNCHES WITNESS
Bereoff Hits President of New
ark Lumber Company in
the Eye

JERSEY CITY, Jan. ia fist
fight. charges of "disgraceful con-
duct" on the part of counsel and cred
itors for the bankrupt, and scoring
of one of the lawyers by another for
trying his case in the newspapers"
were only few of the occurrences
that enlivened yesterday afternoons
hearing before Referee George b,
Beach of the creditors of julius Ber-
goff, realty operator, who was recent
" forced to the wall.
Bergoff and Jacob Jacobson, presi-
dent of the Metropolitan Lumber
Company of Newark, were the prin-
cipals in the fisticuffs This was fol-
lowed by new demand upon the ref
cree that he hold Bergoff in contempt
of court. This Referee Beach refused
to do, holding that at the time of the
fight he was not in the court room
and therefore the court was not in
session.
Prosecutor Robert S. Hudspeth,
counsel for Bergoff, and Nathan II.
Berger, counsel for the creditors, were
the lawyers who exchanged compli-
ments. Berger was charged by Pros
ecutor Hudspeth with trying his
case in the newspapers"
The tight was the climax of a stormy
hearing. Referee Beach adjourned
the hearing for a month, saying that
that might tend to cool down the par
ties in the suit.

Grain Market

CHICAGO. Jan. 15.-Proft- taking
by holders gave the wheat market to-
day a setback. Many traders seemed
to believe that the advance in prices
had been too rapid, and was shutting
off the cash demand. Signs of liberal
world shipments tended also to cause
a decline. Opening figures were a
shade to 4 lower and there was an
additional sag later.
The fact that most of the shorts
had been forced out yesterday ap-
peared to strip the best support from
the market. Closing prices were
nervous. Is lower to B0A up, COM
pared with last night
Unseasonably mild weather weak
ened corn. Receivers said consign-
ments were increasing from Iowa and
Illinois. Prices started a sixteenth to
"A off and continued to descend.
Country offerings though in small
quantities formed a huge total. The
close was steady, 3s4h off to Il up,
compared with last night.
Oats suffered from lack of demand,
The down turn in corn was vainly re-
sponsible.
Provisions rose on account of an adj
vance in the price of hogs. First
sales varied from last nights level to
121s higher, but packers unloaded on
the bulge, and there was a decided re-
action in consequence.
