tendencies have reflected no departure
from the upward swing, Dun's list OF
wholesale quotations again disclosing
the now familiar characteristics, and
certain essential commodities that had
experienced yielding, such as hides,
have responded promptly to the re-
entry of important buyers into the
markets or to other supporting in
fluenceS and are now distinctly firmer.
Demands in most primary channels
run beyond available supplies of the
better classes of goods, which are
chiefly wanted, and strength in prices
is a logical concommitant of such con-
dition. While many consumers are
benefitting from the special retail sales
in some lines. as in textiles, yet few.
If any concrete evidences of permanent
change in living costs have made
themselves manifest, however certain
it may be that the existing situation
can not last indefinitely.

Wood alcohol did not kill the four
persons. three women and man, who
were found dead at 1929 Columbia ave-
nue. last Tuesday according to a report
made to Coroner Knight today by DR..

says that the liquor drunk by the four
was pure rye whisky.

When the bodies were found several
whisky bottles were picked up in the
room. This led to the conclusion that
the dead persons had been poisoned by
wood alcohol Each of the bottles still
contained some Of the liquid. This was
tested by Doctor Robinson, who found
it free from poison.
Search began today for two diamond
rings which Mrs. Meddick was wearing
who came here when informed of her
death, told the police the rings were
not restored to him with the valuables
taken from the woman's body.
The police say when they moved the
body from the Columbia avenue house
they did not notice the diamond rings
Other persons who helped in caring for
the dead also said they did not sec
the rings.

BAY RUM BLAMED
FOR DEATH0F MAN
York Road Barber's Case Indi-
Gates Wood Alcohol Poison
ing, Say Physicians
NEW MOVE PLANNED HERE

Wood alcohol claimed it's first vic
tim in the York Road section with the
death of Philip Seltzer. n barber. ac-
c0rding to physicians at the Arlington
Memorial Hospital.
Seltzer, who was fifty years old, and
unmarried. died in the hospital shortly
before midnight. Abingdon police be-
lieve he drank bay rum and are inves-
tigating.
The barber was taken to the hos
pltai last Tuesday, presumably suffer
ing from acute Indigestion. Hospital
physicians say he denied he was drink
ing liquor or a liquor substitute. His
condition, however. showed unmistak-
able symptoms of wood alcohol pois-
oning. they said.
Scltzer was employed in barber
shop at Willow Grove. He was work
ing in the shop Tuesday when he drop
ped to the floor apparently in great
Dnin. He was unconscious for hours
before he died.
An ordinance regulating the sale and
distribution of wood alcohol will be
one of the first things sent to the city
Council by DR.. G. Lincoln Furbush.
who takes Office as director of public
health under Mayor elect Moore on
Monday.
The discovery that much of the wood
alcohol used in making whisky sub :
stitutes in this and other cities is sold
by garage owners and paint store pro-
prietors to purchasers who say they
want the poison for scientific or com
mcrcal purposes is the reason for Doc
tor Furbush's determination to intro
duce the ordinance.
Doctor Furbush said that the ordi-
nance would not extend to drug stores,
as there stores are restricted in their
sales of the stuff by the government. He
said that it was meant only to apply to
paint shops and automobile garages and
workshops. where the wood alcohol was
used extensively for commercial pur-
noses
