had unsuccessfully tried to get repre-

Coalition conference. had Jumped the
reservation" They had not expected 1t

perturbed as they were surprised. When
Harvier was calling loudly for repre-

was asked several times to name some
of the members Of his organization. he
declined to do so.
A Coalitionist said last night that
in 1908 Mr. Harvier sat in on the fusion
conferences The name Of his organ
ization that year could not be recalled,
but he made no protest to the ticket
that was framed UP with Otto T. Ban
nard for Mayor. William A. Prender-
CAST for Comptroller, and John Purroy
Mitchell for President of the Board OF
Aldermen But after the work had
been completed Mr.. Harvier withdrew
and supported William j. Gaynor. the
Tammany candidate for Mayor.

Special Despatch TO THE NEW York HERALD
CHICAGO, July 15.-Canged goods are
going to be higher-much higher-when
the new pack comes in, according to
the National Gamers Association, In
convention here.
The situation, the Gamers explained
is all due TO n combination of old mother
nature. financial depression and reduced
acreage.
The green pea rack will run about haif
of what II was last year. while the re-
duction of the acreage In sugar corn VIII
bring a new pack that will be little
over a third OF the 1920 output
THE tomatoes are even worse off.
said Asa Bennett of Frankfort, Del.
Most of the tomatoes in the market
come from Maryland, Delaware and New
Jersey The farmers reduced their acre
age to a certain extent because of the
low 1920 prices, but the thing which did
the real damage was severe drought
1t began after the young plants were set
out, and continued until about two weeks
ago. The tomato pack is going to run
about 20 per cent of normal"

SAVAGE RAT TURNS OUT
TO BE A LITTLE MOUSE
Wild Story Imbues Rodent
With Tigerish Ferocity.

The silly season brought on by the
inordinately long stretcn OF hot weather
led yesterday to a thrilling tale Of a
ferocious rat, said to have been as large
as a full grown house cat which at
tackled John Bolte in his home. 139
Stegman avenue. Jersey City, chewed
up the broom with which Bolte tried to
kill 1t. and was prevented only by ex-
ceIlent footwork from sinking its long
fangs into the mans neck.
The tale started early yesterday, and
before night came the size of the rat
had increased. as did the story OF
incredible ferocity. The story had Bolte
administering an antidote to his five
year-old daughter. Leonora, who had
swallowed some rat poison, when he
heard a noise at the door which led
from the kitchen. The rats eyes. ac-
cording to the story. had death in them,
and its fangs were barred. But Bolte
was a brave man. He seized a broom
and said Boot The rat instead OF
running carried on. The ensued the
battle. Time and again. according To
the story. the rat climbed up the broom
handle. chewing as II climbed, ard blew
its breath on Bolte's neck.
Bolte's screams. according to the tale
brought a dozen stalwart neighbors
who took up the battle and finally KILLED
the rat after II had worn itself out In Its
savage attack
The truth Is that Leonora Bolte die
swallow some biscuit which had RAJ
poison in IT, Her father took her ir
the kitchen and was giving her som,
mustard when a little mouse ran from
one corner to the other He picked uI
broom and killed 1t. Leonora was al
right after an emetic had been giver
her. In the interest of accuracy IT mus
be stated this concluding paragraph
contains all of the foundation for th'
| story that really existed.

SHORTAGE IN CANNED GOODS
AND HIGH PRICES FORECAST
National Gamers Report Smaller Acreage Planted
Drought and Inability to Finance Large Crops
Soldiers Fed Up on Gold Fish

one cause or the reduced acreage. Mr..
Bennett said, was the inability of the
Gamers to finance large crops.
THE canning companies were hit hard
in 1920" he continued. prices were
high because of combination of high
labor costs and high materials. The
Government released its huge stocks OF
canned goods at cost. Money conditions
frightened, and 1t was case of throwing
canned goods on the market for almost
any price they would bring In order to
meet mortgages and notes.
THE result was that in 1921 only the
largest companies could buy large crops
from the farmers. Add to that the un-
favorable weather conditions. and you
have the reason for thSshortage.'
The salmon industry, the western
Gamers reported. Is still striving to re-
cover from the effects of the world war
and a very small pack is expected. The
daily and semi-daily diet of gold fish
dispensed in company messes apparently
killed off the fondness for the pink
fleshed fish. and the factories are shap-
ing their output to meet the anticipated
conditions. A large surplus OF the lszo
pack. however. is being carried over.

Of Case To-day.
CHOICE OF SIX VERDICTS
Woman Bases Hope on Insan-
ity Plea, as No Other De-
fence Was Offered.

CLEVELAND, July 15.-The jury In the

with the murder of her husband. Daniel
F. Kaber. had not reached a verdict
at 10 o'clock tonight and was taken
to hotel for the night. 1t will resume
deliberations again at o'clock to-
morrow morning.
Mrs. Kaber. who had sat apparently
oblivious to the arguments of counsel
in which the State asked that she pay
the extreme penalty, tainted Just as
Judge Bernon told the jury the case
now was in their hands She was car
ried from the courtroom in her chair.
Six forms of verdict were given to
the Jurors. They are: Guilty of murder
in the first degree. which carries with 1t
death in the electric chair; first degree
murder with recommendation for
mercy, carrying with 1t life imprison-
ment without hope of pardon; second
degree murder. carrying life impr1son-
ment. subject to pardon by the Gov
ernor mansiaughter. carrying penalty
of Imprisonment from one to twenty
years not guilty. giving her absolute
freedom: not guilty on the ground OF
insanity. thus freeing her on the murder
charge. but subjecting her to confinement
as an insane person.
In his Nharge Judge Bernon said there
should be no conviction II Mrs. Kaber
was found to be mentally irresponsible
at the time of the murder. The burden
OF proof that she was insane. however.
ne declared, was upon the defence. In
sanity was the sole defence, no testimony
being offered to refute the States charge
that Mrs. Kaber planned the murder Of
her husband.
County Prosecutor Edward c. STAN

after the noon recess. During the half
hour he argued Mr.. Stanton declared
