Coarse Grain Prices
..BcNCnd MI Reason. /"

Coarse grain prices at the present
time. steadily going higher, are beyond
all reason, according TO y. j. Blyden-
stein, manager of the Umatilla Flour
& Grain co. The stocks have been
pushed higher and higher in price due
to the speculation and aided by eX-
treme cold weather and other condi-
tions favorable to speculatiors. Local
dealers, he said, are obliged TO pay
SIS a ton for barley in carload ship
ments, s75 for corn. s45 for mill feed,
SOS for oats and $50 for hay besides
a 10 cent premium on soft wheat. At
such prices, the cost to the consumer
who did not lay In his winters supply

Brattleboro, Aug. Tin municipal
court this afternoon it. was expected
that a jury would be drawn to try
tomorrow the case of the State against
John b. Denton. who is charged with
ill-treated his daughter, Miss Carrie
b. Dunton. 1t was stated by Attorney
Herbert G.. Barber for the defendant
that the defense would call sanity ex-
perts as it is the claim of the defense
that Miss Dunton is insane. He said
that it would be contended that Mr.. Dun
ton used no more restraint upon his
daughter than was necessary and that
the defense would require two days
States Attorney f.. w. Gibson said he
would want one day and as it appeared
that the case could not be finished this
week Judge a. f. Cudworth postponed
drawing a jury until Monday, rather
than hold the jurymen over Sunday.
The date of the trial will be decided
then. Attorney Barber said that Mr.
Dunton, whose daughter has a suit for
damages of $4,000 pending against him
for alleged beating and imprisonments.
had pettioned the probate court for a
guardian for Miss Dunton on the ground
of insanity. hearing on the petition
for guardian is set for August 16.

Brattlcboro, Aug. ia Few move
was made to-day by Miss Carrie b.
Dunton, who recently brought suit for
damages of $4,000 against her father.
John u. Dunton, for alleged beatings
and imprisonment. Mr.. Dunton last
week brought a petition to probate
court for the appointment of a guar
dian for Miss Dunton on the grounds
of insanity, his counsel stating that
the girl was unsafe to be at large.
To-day Miss Dunton herself petit
toned the probate court for the APP
pointment of n guardian. naming her
sisters husband, j. Frank Woodbury..
This in interpreted by some as a move
to forestall any attempt to have the
girl committed to an asylum.
Counsel for Mr. Dunton notified Pro-
bate Judge A. +. Schwenk that he would
oppose the appointment of Mr.. Wood
bury, and as Judge Schwenk was going
away for few days, action on the pc
tition was postponed The case of the
State against Mr.. Dunton, who Is
charged with a breach of peace by
mistreating his daughter, was set to-
day for hearing in the municipal
court August 26 by Judge Addison r..
Cudworth. who ordered that a jury be
