Cleveland. Sept. 24.-Encouragetl
by their easy victory yesterday over

Chicago White Sox were determined
to win today's game ana replace the

Manager Gleason was confident

Chicago several days ago. The
White Sox found little trouble hitting
Jim Bagby, the Cleveland star, and
two other pitchers yesterday, and
won 10 to 3.
The Indians are not the least dis.
couraged over their defeat, the frs,
in eight games. They were conf1den,
that Walter Mails, their southpaw
pitcher, would stop the Sox's bats
men. Faber was scheduled to do the
pitching for Chicago.
Because Of the persistence with
which the White Sox hit the ball
into the left field crowd, Manager
Speaker. of the Indians, today had
the playing field cleared Of all extra
seats. thus cutting the capacity OF
the park by fully 5000. President
Dunn, Of Cleveland, agreed with his
manager that it was better to for
felt few thousand dollars rather
than lose the game because of the

can be said Of tomatoes. corn and

eaten and the public will get rehef
from that source. Food prices are
due for drop and food purveyors

LOS ANGELES HAS
MURDER MYSTERY

Body Of Wealthy Mining Promoter
Found Buried in Secret Room il
Cellar of House in Which He Had
APartments-No Bruises Found on
Body-PoIice BaffIed.
BY Associated Press.
Los Angeles, Sept. ga preIfm-
mary postmortem examination of the
body Of Jacob Charles Dcntun, found
buried in a sealed room in the cellar
Of his home, having disclosed no
marks OF violence, detectives
searched today for evidence or how
the wealthy mining promoter came
to his death.
Officers had previously expressed
the theory that Denton had been shot
or stabbed. The shooting theory was
favored because a revolver fully
loaded. but one cartridge of q wrong
caliber, had been found in a room
which Denton had reserved for his
own use, leasing the rest.
Denton disappeared a month ago
The room where he is believed to
have been slain and letters drawing
attention to three women for whom
the police are searching, were found
within few hours Of the time Dem
tons body was discovered.
Tife body was found by private
detective engaged by Dentcn's at
torney, Judge Russ Avery, when
Denton's absence aroused his sus-
picions.
The body wrapped in a cotton
comforter, was found in a deep hole
under the cellar stairs, whera it lad
been covered with earth and a lit:la
room built around it.
The discovery followed finding of
fresh earth in the basement, with
nothing to show whence it came, The
detective began soundings which
broke into the secret room.
The date of Denton's disappearance
was fixed definitely as Aug. 1s.
Physicians reconciled the first
statements that he had been dead
three months by saying the action Of
quicklime buried with the body had
made determination Of the interven-
ing time difficult and largely guess
work.
Police detectives called into the
case by the private investigator who
discovered the body learned that
Denton had given up his apartment
and had been occupying at the time
OF his disappearance a room in the
house where his body was found.
They searched the room and, found
numerous letters, a pistol and blood
stains.

Prices in Wild
Tumble; Food and
Clothing Affected
By Associated Press,


Chicago. Sept. 29-Big breaks in
the price of wheat took place today
largely as a result of agitation for
a general cut in food costs. The
smash Of values in wheat amounted
to as much as 12A cents a bushel,
and the market closed in semi
demoralized condition. December de-
livery at 1925 to SASSY and March
at $2.16 to $2.16.
Heretofore, wheat has been ad-
vancing despite setbacks in the price
OF other grain. The chief reason
ascribed for such strength was huge
sales of wheat for export to Europe.
Today. however, the stimulus of ex-
port business appeared to have lost
Its pfluence and especially near the
end of the day the wheat market
tumbled wildly downward.
In sympathy with the weakness OF
wheat. other grain markets also
gave way and both corn and oats fell
to the lowest price levels yet for .Le
1919 crop.

the first premiership under Presi-
dent Millerand's administration, it
was announced this afternoon. He
will likewise act as foreign minister.
Besides holding the premiership, M.

Prices Slashed
From Automobiles
TO Necessities

c., so. Sept. "a. - Prices are
CO !. : down. The business world
y > rday offered further evidence Of
>. continues decline in commodities.
9 zee reductions were announced by
1veral large corporations and the
dcllons or the principal markets
showed the. belief that commodities
IN general will be still cheaper in the
future.
The most important and sienifi-
cant decline occurred in the Chica go
grain market. The price of corn
afopped below the dollar mark for
tpe first time since early in 1917.
Ihe decline for the day was between
and 3 cents a bushel, depending on
delivery dates. Oats, rye, and bar
ley declined in lesser degree. All
these grains We're offered in large
amounts. but there was little buy
ing power. Wheat held about steady.
mainly because OF buying for the ac-
count of European countries.
AT the Chicago stockyards hog
prices again declined and the trade
in cattle and sheep was dull.
Industrial Stocks FALL
The stock markets, which for some
time have been discounting lower
commodity prices and consequent
lower corporation profits. continued
In this vein yesterday. Industrial
stocks fell rather sharply, influenced
by announcements Of price reduc-
tions by a large eastern manufactur-
er of cotton goods, another automo-
bile manufacturer and three big Chi
cago mail ohder houses.
There also were reports ip steel
trade circles that buyers are obtain
ing concessions in prices over those
prevailing a few weeks ago and that
there is less difficulty in securing
quick deliveries of goods ordered
This tended to bear out the predic-
ton that steel prices, particularly
those quoted by the independent con-
Germs, are due for reduction. The
United States Steel Corporation, the
biggest factor in the industry, has
not yet announced it's new scale of
prices, but the whole trend of the
steel and iron market is easier.
Franklin Car Reduced.
: From the automobile industry
came the announcement that the H.
H. Franklin Manufacturing Company
OF Syracuse, N. Y, is reducing prices
on its cars from II to q per cent
President Franklin announces the re-
duction in statement praising the
action of the Ford Motor Company
in cutting prices and agreeing with
Henry Ford that such action is the
only practical way of getting the in
dustry back to a normal basis. There
also were more rumors that a mum
Der Of other motor ear companies
will make similar announcements.
soon.
Mr.. Franklin declared lower prices
are necessary to stimulate business
and prevent unemployment, which is
on the increase. But he stated that
wages will not be reduced. Operating
at capacity, the Franklin plant en-
ploys more than 5000 persons, but
within recent weeks 2,40O employees
have been released.
From Akron. O., came news that
the big automobile tire concerns
there had increased prices 10 per
cent, but in this connection it was
stated that Henry Ford has warned
the manufacturers which supply the
bulk of tires for his output that he
will not stand for an increase and
plant if any advance is attempted.
