Huntsville, December (Special) Relatives and friends are greatly alarmed over the condition of David Overton, who lies critically Ill here at the Madison county jail.

Law Ter and who will. when his condition permits, be moved to the Birmingham jail, was taken violently i'll last night and his physicians were constantly at his bedside. It is now believed by the attending physicians that an operation for appendicitis will have to be un- dergone by the prisoner. Should this be the case it may be many weeks be- fore the unfortunate man Is taken from Huntsville.
 Overton also has symptoms of pneu- monia, and his present serious illness is thought to be due to the chronic dis ease, diabetes, from which he has suf- fered for years
 Much sympathy has been aroused among the people of Huntsville. and eevry comfort possible will be given the famous prisoner

HIGH PRICES DUE ID BUNCH BUYING
 SAYS ANDERSON
Federal Investigator Claims Business Public Does Not Know How to Handle
 Sellers Market

Boston, December 5.--Hysterical, panic stricken "bunch buying is responsible for most of the rise in foodstuffs prices, &C., cording to District Attorney Anderson. recently appointed to take charge of the nationwide inquiry into the causes of the high cost of living.
 ''The bear and not the bull is the sane business man of today" MT. Ander- son declared District Attorney Ander- son left here today for New York and
 Washington. He said he would confer in New York with agents of the department of justice who have charge of the fed- eral investigation in that city and later
 would proceed to Washington. He was accompanied by Special Assistant District
 Attorney General Adler. He gave out the following statement:
 Tn Washington we are to have con-
 ferences with Secretary Houston Secre-
 tary Redfeld, with representatives of the
 interstate commerce commission and the
 federal trade commission for the purpose of enabling the department of justice to coordinate it's investigation, in order to ascertain whether the marked increase in
 prices of commodities is due to acts in violation of the antitrust laws.
 Meantime the public should under stand that special agents all over the country are now and have been for some time past at work on this problem, that reports are constantly coming in and be- ing analysed. The department has under consideration the calling of a special grand jury in some district. possibly Ch,- cago or New York, to investigate the whole subject by witnesses under oath. "The department desires particularly to be informed of all facts warrantlng probable suspicion of corners, or att tempts to control the market.
 We already know enough to say that
 most. but probably not all of the absurd rise in prices is due to hysterical, panic stricken punched buying. The American business public does not know how to handler a sellers" market The bear | and not the bull Is the same business | man in these times'
