and walks several squares three times
each week for treatment. This Ia an
example of the modern drugless heal

eases originate over a sublaxation OF
the vertebrate, which pitches the
nerves, which are the life of certain
parts of the body and if these verte-
brae are properly adjusted the disease
will be cured and in the case of the
little boy it seems that he knows his

GRAVE DESECRATlONCA CASE
PASSED TO GRAND JURY
Grave Digger Charged With Heinous
Crime Is Held For Further In
vestigation Before the
Grand Jury.

At the close OF an all-day session Of
Court at the City Building at TT.
Thomas yesterday Magistrate e. R.
Brandes held Henry Saalwachter,
charged with having disinterred the
body Of Clara Fischer at st. Stephens
Cemetery, to the October grand jury
under bond of $4,000, despite efforts
of Saalwachter's attorneys, Frank
Spitzelberger and William Clark, to
have the bond reduced.
The taking of evidence In the pre-
liminary hearing was confined to that
offered by County Attorney Blaine Nc
Laughlin for the state. After the pros
ecution rested Attorney William Clark,
for the defense, moved that Saalwach-
ter be dismissed. Squire Brandes In
overruling the motion said that "the
defendant was charged with crime
the enormity Of which had not been
equaled in the United States, and the
Court does not feel justified In making
an order Of dismissal"
In cross-examining witnesses for
the state Saalwachter's attorneys
sought to find out whether Clara
Fischer's grave really had been refill
ed following the funeral week ago
last Thursday morning. Sexton Blye
said he personally had taken no part
in filling the grave, but was certain he
had seen it after 1t had been filled.
When the state rested its case coun-
sci for the defense, after summonine
more than 20 witnesses, announced
they had decided to waive examination
and let the case go to the grand jury
for further investigation.

FOREIGN TRADE

Upon the present congress falls
the burden of shaping the nation s
future merchant marine. Business
men await its edict with confidence.
A number of plans have been for
mulated, and congress will not lack
material TO work upon. The Amer
lean Manufacturers Export assOcia-
ton seems TO express a majority
opinion when il calls for the sale
Of government ships TO private oper-
1tOrs whenever an equitable basis
can be found, at prices not to eX-
ceed the cost Of foreign-built ships
of the same class and tonnage. 1t
calls for the exercise of government
control in the establishment of
maximum rates and for some degree
OF protection for American oper-
ators. The Boston and Atlanta
chambers OF commerce and a num-
Der OF senators and representatives
approve this plan.

York suggests that any ships unsold
be chartered first 20 American in
terests and then 20 foreign COM
inent republicans will probably as
sert that the government cannot at
ford TO sell at great loss now. and
win propose the alternative OF gov
eminent ownership and private con-
troll for a period OF years. George
W. Norris. OF Philadelphia, points
out that a sale would make heavier
demands, perhaps. than capital can
meet
Various organizations were gath
cred at Washington to discuss the
Hurley and other plans the latter
part OF this week. The meeting is
very significant. Out OF IL and all
the others gone before will emerge
a clarifying policy which congress
may see Mt TO approve.
