NEW YORK, Dec. 16.-It was an
open question Wednesday whether

generally upon expectations of the

Rails Go High
Rail averages touched the highest

BANDIT DETECTOR
CONTROLLED BY
RADIO INVENTED

BB Times Special
CHICAGO, Dec. 16.-"And here
are the moving pictures which
show that these defendants are the
criminals who robbed the safe"
This may become the strong point
of State prosecutors if the inven-
ton of John F. Seebold OF La Sale,
Ill.,. an invisible movie camera con-
trolled by radio, is practicable. The

In another month, Seebold hopes
to have the invention ready for a

to make the machine carry on the

phone wires have been cut.
Crooks Cut Wires
The advantage Of the wireless, a
feature suggested by Edward Hall,
chief electrical engineer Of the Chi
cago Rapid Transit, Edison and pub
lie utilities, is apparent because the
enterprising crook usually cuts all
electric and telephone lines when on
a big job"
Even if the robbers were to revert
to the mask and hood styles of an
other decade, the cameras eye would
recognize them for, according to
Chief Postal Inspector Grant Miller,
every man has some popularity of

ticular manner of standing or walk
ing which singles him out"

GRAINS BEAR|SH
AFTER CABLES
End of Lake Navigation May
Bring Brisk Demand.


CHICAGO, Dec. 16.-Sentiment
was decidedly bearish on the Chicago
Board Of Trade this morning as the
result of a flood of discouraging
cables. However, the virtual close
of navigation on the Great Lakes
because of the severe weather means
that considerable grain will be kept
off the market at time when the
demand may become rather brisk.
Wheat opened &c to 1ac lower in
all positions on news of weakness
at Liverpool and failure of Buenos
Aires to respond to our rise of yes
terday. Local selling accelerated the
dip.
Corn ranged from unchanged to
&c lower in sympathy with wheat
and because of large stocks Of old
grain still in storage.
Oats displayed activity, but opened
unchanged to sc lower. Locals are
of the opinion that the crop has
been over-estimated and this, with
the increased feeding demands, gives
the pit a firm basis.
Provisions were unchanged.

WRONG MAN
IDENTIFIED
BY WITNESS
Real Defendant in Larceny
Case Set Free, Through
RuSe.

Harold Fossgate. 926 Stillwell St.
is a free man today, as a result of
some slick work by his attorney in
Judge Dan V. Whites municipal
court Wednesday afternoon, when
Fossgate was dismissed on charges
of malicious trespass and petit lar
ceny.
1t was alleged that Fossgate stole
a bag of coal from the Brookside Ice
and Coal Company, 1415 Commerce
Ave, Dec. 9, the witness against
him being James Mitchell, Negro
Waterman. According to the prose-
oution. Fossgate abandoned his auto
after being chased by Mitchell, and
later appeared in a street railway
employees uniform, declaring he was
looking for his auto, which had been
stolen.
Another Man
Another man, also wearing a
street car UNIFORM, was brought be-
fore the court, by Lawrence A.
Shaw, defense attorney.
'Yassuh. that's the man, that's the
man." Mitchell asserted. Hes the
one that stole the coal"
You're wrong" interjected Shaw.
HE isn't even charged. Mr.. Foss-
gate, will you please come here?"
Case Dismissed
The defendant appeared from the
rear Of the room.
Case dismissed" said the judge.
The same ruse Of bringing into
court a person who resembles in APP
pearance the defendant was used
successfully in the Elmer Case liquor
case in Criminal Court recently.
