MURDER MYSTERY
STILL BATTLING
Law FORCES TRAILING SUS-
PECTs IN THE TAYLOR MUIR
H DER.

Los Angeles, Feb. 10.-The field
of suspects in the Taylor murder
mystery today narrowed down to
four mne and mysterious Miss,
whose name has not heretofore been
mentioned in the murder. The for
ces of the law tracking the murderer
of the movie director have been com
bined under a single head to concen-
trate on these suspects. District At
torney Thomas Lee Woolwine today
assumed leadership of the various
aencies searching for Taylor's slay-
er. All new evidence unearthed will
be placed at his disposal. Mable Nor
mand, entirely recovered from her
nervous breakdown, was to appear
before Woolwine today and tell all
she knows of the dead man and his
past. Miss Normand flatly denied
to the United Press that her visit
to Taylor's apartment on the night
of the murder was for the purpose
of demanding a return of "the bless
ed baby" letters which she had writ
ten to him and which were found
hidden in the toe of boot in his
apartment.

Dry League Is
Hit" By Divine

Salt Lake City, Utah, Feb. To-
Prohibition and the Utah Anti-Cig-
aret league were ridiculed here be-
fore the city commission by Rev. FL
mer 1. Goshen, pastor of the First
Congregational church, when he ap-
pealed to the police and the commits
sion to devote more time to running
down highwaymen and murderers,
which are menacing the community,
instead of spending so much of their
effort to enforcement of such freak
laws" as prohibition and the anti
ciaret measure. Recent holdups,
burglaries and shooting affairs in
this city brought a group of repre-
sentative citizens before city Off
cials in an appeal for more stringent
observation of the criminal element
at which time they offered co-opera-
tion in such endorsements.

JEWELRY THIEVES
ARE SENTENCED.
EACH GET FOUR YEARS AND SIX
MONTHS FOR SALEM JOB.

Sioux Falls, Feb. 10.-Entering
pleas of guilty to charges of third
degree burglary, George Heinrich
and Joe Teel have both been SEN
fenced to serve four years and six
months at hard labor in the South
Dakota state penitentiary. These are
the two men who were implicated in
the famous trunk robbery.
Heinrich, who was arrested under
the alias of Harry Butler, was taken
into court at Salem yesterday after
noon before Judge l.. l.. Fleeger and
was sentenced. Teel at that time
refused to enter plea of guilty, al
though he had previously made a
confession. This morning he also
appeared in court and pleaded gull
ty, to receive the same sentence as
Heinrich.
The jewelry robbery, which was
pulled at Salem last spring, was one
of the largest ever attempted in the
state. The thieves spotted trunk
of jewelry carried by a salesman for
lplCS. hC SiuLioh was OhOhVh
into, and the trunks loaded into an
automobile. Leaving Salem, the
men went to Hawarden, Ia, and
there opened the trunks, extracting
the loot, and leaving the trunks in
school house.
Heinrich was arrested at Joplin.
Mo-, by v. C. Bate, postal inspector
last week, while Teel has been In
jail here for the past two months
He was captured at Sioux City.
In pronouncing the sentence. the
court stated that the sentence might
have been heavier had the men
fought the case, but they saved the
state an enormous expense by enter
ing the pleas. So involved was the
prosecution, that States Attorney
Shields had mentioned SO witnesses
in the information. 1t might have
been necessary to bring all of those
to Salem.
Sheriff Mcmahon, with the two
prisoners, is expected to arrive on
the Salem train this afternoon, and
will turn the two men over to the
authorities at the penitentiary.

WHEAT CROP
PROSPECTSPOOR
PEssIMHsTIC wv BY A CHI
cAGo BOA OF TRADE
MARKET EXPERT.

Chicago, Feb 10.-Prospects for
the new wheat crop are the poorest
in history, B. w. Snow, Chicago
board of trade operator and market
expert, said today. The world will
feel a severe pinch for wheat before
the 1922 crop comes in, according
to present indications, Snow told the
United Press in an exclusive inter-
view. This is due to fact that last
years production of wheat in the
United States was relatively small.
Also from limited supplies in Ameri-
cas- granaries. More wheat was ex-
ported to Europe than at any time
in history, the board of trade fig
ures show. The wheat crop in the
southwest is in critical condition,
said Snow. Lack of snow, together
with wind, sand and dust storms
leads to the belief that prospects ror
a crop are poorest in history to meet
the demand, he said.

GIVE OPINIONS
PHASES Of LAW
STATE LEGAL DEPARTMENT
RENDERS DECISIONS In SEW
ERAL IMPORTANT MATTERS

Pierre, Feb. 10.-The state legal
department has, on request of the
states attorney of McCook county,
passed upon the matter of the filing
of petitions of Independent candidat-
es with the secretary of state.
The issue came up in regard to
the filing of petitions of legislative
candidates, which are required to be
filed on or before the first day of
January. Attempts were made to
file petitions on the second day of
January, on the ground that the
first day came on Sunday, and that
would carry the filing date over to
the second.
This ground is held not be gooa,
so long as the filing date is fixed
ION or before set date. The way
was open to get the filing in before
the last day, and when a final date
is fixed by the statute in a continu-
ing period this is held to be the final
date and one not covered by provi-
sion which allows an act required
to be done on specific date to go
over to the next day in case the date
is holiday
1t is also held, on inquiry from
Ziebach county, that the mothers
pension law is broad enough in its
provisions to warrant an allowance
to a grandmother who is caring for
and maintaining orphaned grand
children.
On inquiry from Day county it is
held that a county superintendent Oh
health has not legal claim Of SIS
for visits which he makes to remove
the quarantine and fumigate house
where there has been a quarantine
established on account of infectious
diseases; that the officer is allowed
under the law mileage and SIS for
his first visit to decide as to the di-
sease and the need of quarantine,
but this does not cover the second
visit to remove the quarantine,
While the law fixes a specific charge
for such first visit, any fee for the
second visit would come under the
provision which gives the county
commissioners power to fix such 9TH
er fees as they may deem to be nee
essary and just but that the fixed
fee does not apply except on the first
visit.
The question of the liability OF
counties in bridge work comes III
on inquiry from Gregory county. Evi
IDENTITY it has been the contention IN
that county that where repairs or
a bridge on secondary road
amounts to less than 5000 such
charge is against the townships and
not against the counties.
The law apparently provides fol
the construction and maintenance
by the county of bridges which cost
5000 or more.
This provision is held to NEAR
that the maintenance cost is includ
ed in such provision regardless Of
what this amount may be. ANY
bridge or culvert construction, where
the original cost is less than 5000 |!
| charge against the counties. bu
where county has constructed
| bridge at a cost of over $500 i
must also maintain the same.

CONTINUE WORK
ON BONUS BILL
ESTIMATE $3.50, ZOO, 900 YEARLY
FROM SPECIAL TAXES TO FL.
NANCE MEASURE.

Washington, Feb. 10--A tentative
estimate of $3.50, 100000 yearly as
the amount of special taxes that
must be laid to finance the cash fea-
ture of the proposed soldier bonus
legislation was made today at an ex-
ecutive session of majority members
of the house ways and means conn
mitteee. The exact amount that is
to be determined upon and the sour
ces from which it must come will be
taken up tomorrow by sub-commit-
tee headed by Chairman Fordney.
Committeeman said it was not the
intention to rely on any part either
of the interest or principal of the
British or other foreign debts in con-
nection with the bonus. They said
that something around $350,000,0O0
year would take care of the cash
payments to be made over the two
and oneIhalf years period, beginning
January /, 1928, and that the find
ing of definite and certain sources
from which to obtain this amount
was their immediate concern.
The $350,000,00O estimate, it was
explained, was made on the basis Of
figures presented at public hearings
by fiscal officers of the army, navy
and marine corps These figures
contemplated fifty per cent of the
men who served with the army and
75 per cent of those who served with
the navy and marine corps electing
toto take cash. This figure maybe,
revised as the committee stud
les the matter.
The first question before the tax
subcommittee will be that of de-
Gliding whether the tax revenue is to
come from a limited group of sour
ces or whether the taxes will be
spread over a wide field. 1t was
said that there were two schools of
thought in the committee. Some
members emphasized that il would
be the purpose to so arrange the tax
program as to interfere as little as
possible with the recovery of busi-
ness.
There was said to be drift of
sentiment for tax of possibility one
cent gallon on gasoline and also a
levy on tho transfer of stocks and
bonds. These are only two of a
score of suggestions.
Another subcommittee under Rep
resentative Green, Iowa, will begin
tomorrow study of the original
Fordney bill, with a view to decid-
ing what notifications, il any are
to be made in 1t. 1t was said 10
be practically certain that the "five
way" program would be retained,
but that same changes in individual
plans might be made.
There is little sentiment in the
committee now, it was stated, in IA
vor of the suggested decrease in the
total amount of cash that might be
received by the former service men,
under option number one with COR
responding increase in the value of
each of the other four options.

WORK STOPPED
ON WARSH|PS
ARRANGEMENTS BEING PUSHED
TO SINK VETERAN WAR SHIP
WITH FULL HONORS.

Washington, Feb. 10.-Adminis-
tration officials are undecided as yet
as to suggestions that veteran bat
tleship of the fleet to be scrapped
under the naval limitation treaty be
sunk at sea with full military hon
ors to symbolic ratification of the
pact which will end competitive navy
building among the five great naval
powers.
In any event one of the ships de-
stined to be destroyed probably will
be sent to the bottom by unfire.
The pre-dreadnaught Iowa now
equipped for distant control of ra-
dia and successfully tried out in air
craft maneuvers incident to the sink
ing of former German craft last year
is to be sunk by the fire of the fleet
some time this spring.
Washington, Feb. 10.-Construc-
ton work on II capital ships has
been suspended by order of Secre-
;tary DENLY and under direction OF
President Harding. The step was
taken In anticipation Of ratification
of the naval limitation treaty which
resulted from the. Washington con-
ference and, under which only three
of the vessels involved will be com.
plted as war craft The other IL
will be scrapped or converted to mer
chant ships under the treaty.
Secretary DENLY acted after AS
sistant Secretary Roosevelt had dis
cussed with President Harding the
terms of the treaty affecting the new
ships. Mr.. Harding approved the
suggestion that work De halted i'm
mediately on the eight super-dread-
naughts and six battlecruisers pend
ing final action on the treaty. The
building operations thus halted have
cost the government approximately
$4,000, 900 a month.
Following ratification of the trea-
ty, contracts for the new ships will
be cancelled. The ultimate cost to
the government of this cancellation
cannot be determined, but naval of
ficials believe considerable saving
will be made through yesterdays ac-
ton.
Only one capital ship under con-
struction was exempted from the sus
pension order. She is the Colorado
more than 90 per cent complete and
which will be retained in the per
manent fleet.
Watervliet, N. Y, Feb. 10.-0ffi'
cials at the United States arsena
here say that under the program
adopted at the Washington confer
ence at least twenty 16-inch guns
now under construction here mus
be scrapped. This type is virtually
the largest and most expensive uset
by the war department. Each wea
pom in addition to requiring thou
sands of dollars worth of the choic.
est material in its manufacture nee
essitates months of labor by severa
hundred expert mechanics before Il
is completed.
Colonel Westervelt, commandan'
of the arsenal, said today, however
that he had received no orders tt
curtail activities in the manufacture
of large cannon.

Suicide Effort

Watertown, Feb. 10-With a half
emptied bottle of moonshine beside
him and the six burners of the gas
stove wide open, A. j. Struckman
was found dead in chair at his
home here last night by his wife and
son on their return from downtown.
An inquest Is not probable, authori-

in real estate and subsequently was
engaged in bootlegging and served
30-day jail sentence recently for
manufacturing liquor.
