INVESTIGATORS
FIND NEW LEAD
IN HALL CASE
Believed Couple We're Muir
dered in Shed and Bodies
Taken to Phillips Farm
(By the Associated Press)

New Brunswick, N. J. Oct. 49,
Detectives began today to investigate
the newly developed report that
the Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall, rec
tor Of the Episcopal church of st.
John the Evangelist, and Mrs. Flea
nor Reinhardt Mills, choir singer
were murdered in a shed at Weston
Mills, settlement several miles
from New Brunswick and about four
miles from the Phillips farm where
their bodies were found on Septem-
Der 16. Affidavits containing this
new information we're made public
by the police yesterday, almost at
the same time that DR.. John F. An
derson, chemist, reported to the au-
thorities that an analysis of the
blood soaked ground where the bo-
dies were found led him to believ',
the murders took place there.
The two men who made the affi-
davits said that they heard wo-
mans screams and her pleas for
mercy as they passed the Weston
Mills shed at 1O:3O p. m. on the
night the rector and Mrs. Mills were
slain. The men said that they con-
tinued on their way and that soon
after o'clock in the morning m
automobile whizzed past them in the
direction Of the Phillips farm.
Some of the officials are known
to place little credence in the new
information and are clinging to the
theory that the couple we're killed
near the spot where the bodies were
found.

In the Future, 1t Is
Announced

The Industrial Commission has
placed the Farm Loan Department
of the Bank Of North Dakota on an
equal footing with Federal Land
Bank and the Rural. Credits Board
of South Dakota by raising the lin
It of loan to any one farmer from
$4,000 to $4,000, A. H. Lindeman,
director Of the department., said to-
day. '
"a consistent demand for this
change has made itself felt and in
view of the fact that such organiza-
tions as the Federal Land Bank and
the Rural Credits Board of South
Dakota use a similar rule, We are
placed on an equal footing with
them," said Mr.. Lindeman. "There
are many deserving farmers in our
state who feel that Nhe loan limit
of $4,000 handicaps them because
such a loan would not refund the
loan now on their farm. Such needs
will be met under the new rule,
and the scope and benefit Of the
farm loan department thereby be
further extended. .... w.
There is marked and increased
demand for loans from the eastern
half of the state during the last few
weeks, according to reports at the
bank. New farm loans applications
to the extent of $761,000 were re-
ceived during the first Is days of
October
The appraisal force of the depart
ment has been gradually increased
to such extent that appraisals can
be made at the rate Of $4,000

NEST0S POINTS
OUT REC0RDIN
ASHLEY SPEECH
Governor Contrasts COndi-
ti0ns Under League Admin
istration and His Own
SAYS SAVINGS MADE
Points Out Salary Cuts in
Administration of State
Owned Ventures

Ashley, N. D., Oct. 19-Answering
the question, "What has the pres
ent state administration done in the
first ten months of its administra-
tion to remedy conditions in the
state government" Governor R. A.
Nestos. speaking here last night,
went into consideration of the rec"
ord of the administration.
Among econ onies he cited were:
eliminatiQ on Of tax supervisors at
saving Of $4,000 a year in salaries
and expenses, reduction Of salary Of
manager of Bank of North Dakota
from $4,000 to $4,000 year, reduc-
tion Of average monthly expense Of
running the bank from sl2,611.07
per month under F. W. Cathro to
S5.3O5.S9 under C. R.. Green.
From January to October l, this
year, the farm loan department, he
said, completed loans Of $3,363, $4,000
and had $S28,OO0.00 of loan papers
ready for signatures of borrowers.
making total of $4,191, $4,000 in
nine months as compared to loans
of $2,771,6 ,699.91 by the league admin
istration in % months. .....-,.
The Grand Forks mill and eleva-
tor, he said, would operate the last
of next week and would formally
open October 80. He said the pres
ent administration let contracts for
completion of the mill as soon as
work could begin last spring and it
is now virtually completed. He said
men of exceptional experience had
been hired to run the mill.
He said when his administration
came into office it found expenses
in closed banks amounted to $685.
3O2.44 in one year, and that amount
of money collected was not sufti-
cient to warrant the expenditure.
The administration, he said, insti-
tuted the group receivership plan
to reduce expenses. Twelve banks
have been reopened by the policy
pursued, he said. n
Great savings had been incurred
in bond sales by this administration,
he said. The saving made by the
state in the sale of $1,6oO,o00 mill
and elevator bonds by this admin
istration, over the price at which
bonds were sold by the former, was
conservatively $43s,OO0 and on a
small block of Bank of North Dakota
bonds, $4,000.
Figuring prices at which the
league administration sold these and
real estate bonds, the losses are
much greater he said.

spectators who crowded the court

today for the prosecution to present
its star witness, her husband and
accuser, who says the twins she dis.
posed of last spring we're her own
flesh and blood and not the sawdust
dolls she claims they were.
Eleven witnesses had testified
when the hearing began its second,
day, and Mrs. McNally listened with
seeming levity and unconcern to
their testimony of how she care

prying eyes of curious relatives and
neighbors. She frequently joined in
the laughter which the testimony
brought from the crowded court
room. .t "
Frank ,McNally, the 56-year-old
husband, failed to see, anything hu.
morous in the proceedings. He wait
ed his turn to testify that his 26-
yeartsld wife had killed the ,twins he
said 5ysre- born, to her Int Decem-
Der, and substituted dolls which she

The defense indicated its inten-
tion to put Mrs. McNally on tho
stand to repeat her version, story
of conspiracy between herself and
her husband to work maternity

known again as father might be
appeased.
According to Mrs. McNally an op-

after their marriage in April, 1921.
All of the witnesses yesterday said
Mrs. McNally kept the faces of the
"twins" covered constantly, claiming
their eyes were weak. Lloyd Nc
Nally, son of the accused woman's
husband by an earlier marriage said
he discovered the alleged doll decep-
ton and told his father. Mrs. Celora
McNally's Lloyd's wife, said she had
carried one of the twins on numer-
GUS occasions and grew suspicious
because of it's apparent lifelessness.
One witness, Mrs. Mary Griffiths,
the nurse who waited on Mrs. Nc
Nally for nine days following the
alleged birth, testified she was not
permitted to care for the twins, but
that or one occasion saw the face of
one, which she declared had a nose

Boston, Mass, Oct. 19.-Tom Law
son, Boston's most picturesque bull
operator in the days of frenzied f.
nance, has received a gorging from
old State and Wall Street enemies
that may end his vivid career IN
Americas financial history.
According to information from IN
Inmates, Lawson is definitely through.
The author of "Frenzied Finance"
and Friday the Thirteenth" the
poet, muckraker, politician, yachts.
man and breeder of prize cattle, the
picturesque and vivid character who
frightened the life of city editots
with sensational story week, has
fought his last battle, on the stock
exchange.
Lawson has gone into seclusion
pending the auction sale of Dream
void, his famous estate. His where
abouts have been sept secret.
His sensational career began when
he was 13 years old-an Office boy in
State Street brokerage house. Now,
at 65, the fortune which has been
tossed into the financial arena in a
score Of bitter battles, has been
wiped out and his famous estate in
Egypt, on the South Shore, has been
put up at auction to liquidate the
Lawson liabilities. s.'.
Played Shoe-String Stakes. =.
Lawson became the P. T. Barnum
of the Stock Exchange. He began
his career playing shoe-string stakes
on tips which he picked up in the
firm where he was chalking up quota
tions and running errands. This was
in 1870.
While still under 20 he was making
money rapidly. Before another ten
years has passed he had made for
tune. From that time to the pres
ent he has been in the, spotlight.
His practice was to leap into a
stock exchange battle with roar
and whoop-to advertise his inten-
tions, make the battle a personal
scrap with other fnancicrs and keep
delighted public informed of, the
progress with full-page letters in the
newspapers.
At 80, he combined literature with
gambling on the exchange. His first
book wah "Thc Krank," published in
1887. r., -....
Only four copies were published of
his second work, "The History of the
Republican Party" which appeared
the next year. One of these, Lawson
presented to President Harrison, an
other to Vice President Morton, a
third was given to the Library of
Congress. The only remaining copy
was retained by the author.
From that time on there was con-
tinuoue pouring of magazine arti-
cles, poems, political opinions and
above all--his letters and adver-
tisements in the newspapers.
Never Tired Writing.
After several bitter feuds on the
stock exchange, Lawson began his

first to apply the craze for muck

DIVIDING THE TERRITORY.

In all sections of the Territory newspapers have
recently been discussing with more less relevancy
the partition of Alaska into two Territories The
Fairbanks News-M iner-Citzen would make Of
these comprise all the southern and southwestern
coastal sections and the interior portion of the second
arguing with justification that the interests are
not sufficiently common to promote harmonious
working agreement among the whole Territory it
is constituted. The Ketchikan Chronicle has
advanced the proposition that Southeastern Alaska
be made into Territory apart from the other di-
visions The Anchorage Times is urging general
gct-together meeting of all the towns along the Gov
eminent Railroad for the purpose of arriving an
agreement the partition of the Territory, as it
says ito satisfy the needs of the entire Territory"
While partition in the immediate future to
be extremely unlikely, the discussion is untimely
Apparently there is general feeling prevalent
throughout the Territory that partition will
tually be necessary This is trivial step
be taken without preparation and serious
study. No set of offhand say
where natural dividing line be found 1t cannot
be said accurately Just where of conditions
to be paramount and another becomes So or
where certain economic and industrial interests have
their boundary line beyond which other interests
prevail. These of the things which are
yet to be definitely determined and which be set
lied before partition along scientific lines can be
accomplished
Full and frank discussion the matter is de-
sirable 1t cannot but help to cryStaliZe sentiment
and when opportune moment arrives, the proposal
can be put through without internal friction.

TO DARKEN HAIR
APPLY SAGE TEA
Look Young! Bring Back Its Ma

Attractiveness

Common garden sage Drewed into
heavy tea with sulphur added
will turn gray, streaked and faded
hair beautifully dark and luxuriant.
Just a few applications will prove

streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage
Tea and Sulphur recipe at home,
though, is troublesome. An easier
way is to get a bottle Of Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound at
any drug store all ready for use.
This is the old-time recipe improved
by the addition of other ingredients
While wispy, gray faded hair is
not sinful, we all desire TO retain
our youthful appearance and at
tractiveness By darkening your
hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound, no one can tell,
because it does it so naturally, so
evenly. You just dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning all
gray hairs have disappeared, and,
after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, soft and luxuriant
