An investigation was started yester-
day to see II there were not two persons
present when John Mitchell, the labor
leader, wrote out his will In a New York
hospital before he underwent the opera

The document, which disposes of $780,

sheet of note paper bearing the name OF
Mr.. Mitchell and his street address in
Mount Vernon. II was written in his own
handwriting and signed by him and
dated. but there were no witnesses to
attest to It's validity and therefore It be-
comes invalid. An effort Is now being
made to see II there were not two nurses
In the room when Mr.. Mitchell wrote the

paper to be his last will and testament.

MAIL CLERK SCARED;
BOMB" PROVES DUD
Batteries Cause Sensation in
Mount Vernon Office.

A bomb" that proved to consist only
OF two electric batteries wired together
gave mail clerk in Mount Vernon a
had scare yesterday and a few anxious
moments to Inspector Michael M. Landy
NJ the Yonkers police. whose job 1t was
to test the thing. The mail clerk, re-
calling the precedent established In
Manhattan by a brother clerk in foiling
the July 1 bomb plot. sensed something
decidedly wrong when he came upon
the package with the ends of electric
wires protruding.
The bundle was addressed to N. z.
Vail d Co. brokers. of Mount Vernon,
and bore label from Sears, Roebuck &
Co. of Chicago. The clerk discovered
that the package had been mailed in
Mount Vernon. He notified his SUPER
intendent and then lit out for Yonkers,
where the only official expert on COM
bustibles could be found.
Inspector Landy took the package and
boldly tested the wires with an electric
detonator. Had It been a bomb the
inspector would probably have vanished
simultaneously with the explosion.
Nothing happened and the joker was
unwrapped.

maker Store-bought nine million dol
lars of merchandise which we arc SELL
ing today at prices based on the lower
prices of that period.
It is Wanamaker staple merchan-
disc which neither fashion nor the wear
and tear of shopkeeping has made less
valuable. In fact, this nine million
dollars of staple goods cannot be re-
placed today for nine million dollars
factory cost.
a. The other merchandise we own
another three and half-millions -
mainly fashions-was bought almost
entirely on the basis of last Springs
fabric prices and on the basis of labor
costs prevailing prior to the August
increases.
We have this huge volume because
of forehand buying and willingness and
ability to meet the new conditions.
AS an example of how prices have
changed since this early buying, we
have over 100000 of furniture hold
ing for customers in our warehouses,
and we are increasing the insurance on
this merchandise above this amount,
since if anything should happen today
we could not replace it for what our
customers paid.
