Conspiracy Uncovered.
Young Woman Headed Gang
That Collected 500, 900.

Chicago, Nov. IAN attractive
young woman and two men, armed
with guns, government credentials and
stars. were seized by federal authori-
ties today what is declared to be
one of the cleverest and most extern
sive booze "shakedown'' schemes dis
closed since prohibition became a law.
The woman, Mrs. Mabel Burns. 81,
was arrested at Peoria. A .3S caliber
revolver was found in her possession.
She also carried two letters authoriz-
ing her to investigate prohibition vio-
lations as a supervising prohibition
agent" These were forged credentials,
according to officials.
Her husband, James Burns, alias
James Austin, was seized at Aurora,
while Walter Reiss, alias Michael Hur-
ley, was arrested in Chicago.

cafe proprietors and hotel proprietors
in Chicago, other places in Illinois,
Missouri and other states have been

are said to have netted them more
than 100000 in the past few months.

horse and buggy into the creek as

MARKET LETTER.

Evening market letter by Logan & Bryan
Chicago, Ill, Nov. 1;-WHEAT-lt was
a weak market from the start, gathering
momentum as it declined into new low
levels and bringing in heavy liquidation OF
long contracts.
Bull news was hard to find until shortly
before the close. when it developed that a
fair export business was being done on the
break.
1t was reported early that both the Greek
and Portugal orders had been withdrawn
for the time being. The congested condi-
ton of wheat at the Gulf was again
brought to the attention of the trade, to-
gether with advices from Canada telling of
embargoes being likely at Fort William
and Port Arthur in the near future. Pri-
mary receipts showed further decrease,
but this Is greatly offset by the fact that
the demand likewise has fallen off and
cash markets generally show a heavy tone.
Today's decline was somewhat abrupt and
a little rally tomorrow would not be sur
prising.

INSANE IS PLEA
Attorney for Arthur Burch
Springs Surprise in Trial.
Defendant Wants Mrs. Oben-
chain Placed on Stand.

Los Angeles. Nov. 1.-Springing the
first surprise of the trial almost be-
fore it was under way. attorneys rep
resenting the defense today offered a
plea of insanity at the opening of the
trial here today of Arthur c. Burch,
charged with Mrs. Madalynne Oben-
chain, with the murder of J. Bolton
Kennedy.
AS Superior Judge Sidney Reeve
assembled his bench and the crowded
court room was called to order, Paul
w. Schneck, chief of defense counsel,
stepped forward declared Burch to be
insane and requested he be tried for
his sanity before going to trial on the
murder charge.
Wants Mrs. Obcnchain on Stand.
One of the enigmatic features of
the case was the probable course of
Mrs. Madalynne Obenchain, jointly in
dicted with Burch for the murder. A
few days ago Mrs. Obenchain declared
she had broken with Burch.
Today, it was declared that Burch
has demanded that Mrs. Obenchain
appear as a witness for him and tell
the murder was committed by two
roughly dressed men" whom she de-
clared she saw fleeing when Kennedy
fell.
Attorney Faces Charges.
A dramatic phase of the trial is ex-
pected to be the recital by a Los
Angeles newspaper reporter of a con-
fession he declares Burch made to
him. The prosecution declares the
reporters story is substantiated by
dictaphone conversations.
A bitter dispute between District
Attorney Woolwine and Erbstein, Mrs.
Obenchains attorney, whom Wool
wine tried to debar after making SEN
sational charges against the Chicago
lawyers character. has added interest
to the Burch case. Trustees of the
Los Angeles Bar association were
scheduled to act on Woolwine's
charges TODAY

To the extent that this is true it
strengthens the case for a material
increase in the number of our judges
and for a simplifcation of some court
processes.
The judiciary, for long time, has
been undermined, so to say. We
have not had judges enough. Com
plants have been frequent, and Con-
gress has often been prodded. We
have logged along with an insufficient
number, and with dockets choked with
urgent and undecided cases.
Now is the time for remedying this
matter. Business is working slowly
and at many disadvantages toward
normally again, an to the degree that
it can be assisted by the prompt dis
patch of all matters of enough import
ance and complexity to call for court
decisions the assistance should be
rendered.-W Washington Star.

Buy 1t at Home.

Here is a little story that has been
going the rounds, and it tells the
story of buying away from home,
from mail order houses, so we'll that
we think you ought to read it: If
you have read it, perhaps it would
be well to refresh your memory.
The other day in Oklahoma a man
went into hardware store to buy a
saw. He found the kind he wanted
and asked the price. 1t was $1.65,
the dealer said.
"Good gracious" replied the shop
per, II can buy that same saw exact
ly from Sears-Sawbuck, the catalog
house, for $685."
fThat's less than I paid for it," re-
piled the dealer, "but I will meet
catalogue competition, so I'll make
you that saw for s1.3B also"
Gall right" said the customer, "send
it to my house and charge it to my
account"
i. Not en- your life," replied the deal
er. "No charge account on this. The
mail order house don't trust you. I
am simply meeting their price and
terms. Fork over the cash.
The customer complied.
'Now cents more for postage, and
5 cents for the money order," said the
dealer.
"What ?"
Certainly, you have to send let
ter and money order to mail order
house, you know"
The customer inwardly raving,
handed over the money.
"Now Is cents for expressage,"
said the dealer, still holding out his
hand.
"Wen, I'll be " said the Gus
toner. But he paid it, saying, "Now
hand me that saw and I'll take it home
myself and be rid Of this foolery."
"Hand it to you'll Where do you
think you are? You're in Oklahoma
and I'm in Chicago. You'll have to
wait two weeks for that saw
Whereupon the dealer hung the saw
on a peg, and put the money in the
cash drawer.
"That makes $751;" he said, ut has
cost you 2 cents more and taken two
weeks longer to get than if you had
bought it from your local hardware
store in the first place."
