CANADA RAISES WHITE
PAPER TO $50 A TON

MONTREAL. Dec. 11.-Canadian
print paper manufacturers are pre-
pairing for an era OF unprecedented
prosperity at the expense of users OF
their product in the United States.
The activity in news print paper
stocks followed the publication of a
statement that manufacturers were
making new contracts with users in
the United States and that these 1920
contracts were based on a price OF
$3.50 hundred pounds for news print
paper, or 500 a ton. No such prices
have ever before been obtained by
Canadian manufacturers of news print
paper. Indeed, they compare with
$40 to 375 a ton in 1919.

Most people in America who

REAL ESTATE DEALER
Is MURDERED

Denver, Sept. 10. Frank Ronfro,
thirty eight years old, sales manager
for large Denver realty company,
was shot and instantly killed tonight
near Berkeley park by an unknown
asaliant, who escaped. Five shots
were fired into Renfro's body.
Previous to the shooting, according
to friends, Renfro had joined the man
for a conference. With man and
Woman companion, Renfro tonight
drove to the district near Berkeley
park. The motor car was stopped and
Renfro left the machine and joined g.
well dressed man, wearing q cap and
carrying a newspaper, near the edge
Of the park. The pair walked together
toward q vacant lot. Renfro, accord
ing to witnesses, suddenly stopped and
slapped his companion in the face with
newspaper, cautionng him to "be
careful with that gum
Renfro began to run. He ran to the
rear of the home of Fred Won Holdt,
ASS Winona court. While he was
vainly endeavoring to open the door cf
the Won Holdt home, apparently in an
effort to evade his pursuer, Renfor was
slain.
As a result of information given the
police tonight by Mrs. Renfro, wife Of
the murdered man, the police ordered
the arrest of a married woman, whose
name was withheld.
The police say this woman will be
able to throw light on the murder.
Renfro came here last January from
Cheyenne where sister, Alice, Is be-
lieved to live. He has not been living
with his wife. Later it WAS learned
the man and woman who drove to
Berkeley park with Renfor were Mr..
and Mrs. Robert HarriA Harris il
night clerk at the hotel where Renfro
lived. Renfro, according to Harris, X
planned he had an appointment to com
