Wife of Dallas Business Man Murder
Victim or Suicide

Dallas Tex, Nov 26.-The body of
Mrs. Hugh Perry, wife of a we'll to do
Dallas business man, was found Thurs
day in a ravine a short distance out
side of Oak Cliff, suburb. The
throat bore marks of strangulation
Although Mrs. Perry disappeared No
vember Is, the police and an under
taker said she had not been dead more
than As hours. Her disappearance
had been kept secret by the police who
have been searching for her, without
finding any clues for ten days. Her
husband was said to be in San An
tonic, searching in that city.
On the afternoon of November 10,
Mrs. Perry babe goodbye to her sister
in-law, Mrs. Royal Smith, at large
department store here, saying she had
an appointment.
What this appointment was is not
known. So far as the police have an
nounced, she was never seen alive
again. Mrs. Perry was between IS
and 40 years old, prominently connect
ed in Dallas, and a church worker.
On the theory that murder was COM
mitted, Sheriff w. K. Reynolds last
night ordered formal autopsy of the
body today, with the removal of the
stomach. This will be done to ascer-
tain whether Mrs. Perry took poison
or was given poison to cause her death.
City detectives on the other hand are
working on a suicide belief.

Doctor Waters decried fad farm

prices rallied sharply today after little
snow or weakness at the start. Leading
Trims were active buyers on the early de-

SLO31s and May at $1.O51a to $1.O5a the
market reacted to above Wednesdays close
all around.
Reports of a big decrease in winter
M wheat acreage tended later to help the
pun SIDE of the market. There also
gossip that mills at Minneapolis were good
buyers and that flour in demand for
Baltic ports. The close was steady Ac
net higher with December at $1.031a and
CORN-Unsettled weather had a bullish
influence on corn. and So too, did an ad-
vance abroad. Opening prices, which
ranged from &c to &c higher, fol-
lowed by a moderate upturn and then a

Two claims against the city totaling
$4,000 haveA been snladeA by NJ c. Nc
Cormick and his Twifes Amelia McCor-

furnished the customary $4,000 plum
ber's bond, which the city will fall
back upon in case damages must be
