Make Appeal for Patriotism.

The Michigan Bean Growers IN ses.

price at which they would sell beans at

an average of st bushels per acre. The
growers did not fully agree Oh the cost
or the production but the price is sure
TO cover even bad weather conditions
from now on.
The bean jobbe-s of the state also in
session at Saginaw protested strongly
against the price fixed, warning tie
growers that the business might be
ruined as competition by other countries
was increasing and substitutes for the
Michigan bean were being found They

FOREIGNER KILLED
ON RAILROAD TRACK
Murder Suspected at First-Attended
Party and Drank Liquor.

John Porkoney, a Bohemian laborer,
80 years of age, was killed on the Ann
Arbor track near the sugar factory
Sunday night by being struck by the
en- Inc of train. His body was car
ried to the railroad yards by the engine
and finally released by being caught in
switch. The body was dismembered
and cut to pieces, parts being found at
different places
AT first murder was suspected as the
train did not pass the sugar factory un
til an hour after Porkoney had left the
home of August Miller, northwest of
the factory, where Names Day
party had been held He left the house
with Louis Mendlek, who returned to
the house in few minutes.
A coroner's jury was called by Justice
Friegel which after hearing all the
evidence obtainable rendered verdict
that Porkoney came to his death from
an unknown cause. Mendlek was
questioned and after being held for
some time was released All the people
at the Miller home who testified stated
that Porkoney was sober but the
general belief is that he was the worse
for liquor and after Leaving the house
fell on the track and was stunned.
The fact that burrs were found in hi 6
hair also strengthens the idea that the
victim was not sober.
Porkoney was employed at the NAL
leables plant nights as a fireman and
after going home Sunday morning
changed his clothes and left for Mil
ler's and did not return. He lived on
Ament street and is survived by his
wife and FIVE children, the Oldest eleven
years and the Youngest a baby four
weeks old.
The body was taken to the jennings
& Son morgue and the funeral held
Wednesday.

tai ming his wife and child and two

Stoddard is still confined to her bed.
She suffered hemmorrhages of the lungs
and was badly bruised. Mr. Stoddard
was injured in the back, and although
he suffered much pain, no permanent
injury is feared.
The Thomas machine was coming
from the north, the other from the east,
and both drivers claim to have been
going at moderate speed. The Lans.
ing car was badly wrecked.
In very few minutes after the acci
dent large number of automobiles had
