Skensky ignored he order and was knocked uncon- scious.
 Four shots were fired by the rob- ,ers, one of which narrowly missed I:archikowsky. The highwaymen got .,5.
 Ten minutes later Arthur Soulier and Henry Cormier with two young women, all of Bristol, were held up, almost at the same spot.

The young women as well as the men were searched but diamond ring and s45 in cash in possession of one of the girls was overlooked. They got $5 from the men. The girls remembered having seen the robbers before in Bristol
 Policeman John Bresnahan of the Bristol police department was driv- ing along Lake avenue, in the same vicinity a short time later. A man stepped in front of his machine and pointing a gun at him ordered him to stop. The policeman drove his machine straight at the man, strik- ing him and knocking him to the side of the road. When he went pdCk IV investigate tic robber had disappeared.
 About 20 minutes later a phone call was received from Southington saying that three men had held up a party of men and girls on West street in Southington and took s41 from them. They ordered the party not to move for 10 minutes and drove off.
 Before one o'clock Sergeant John C. Stadler on duty at the desk at the New Britain police headquarters was notified by Rocco F. Cacchillo, 31s Oak street that he had been held up and robbed at the point of a gun while coming home from southington.

ARIZONA GRAPES

PRODUCTS MOVE

Phoenix, July 13.-Now that Ari-
zoTla people have been eating Arizona
wheat Arizona potatoes, Arizona on
ions, Arizona melons and various
other things as result of special eff
forts in the use Arizona Products"
campaign and liking them!--tlley are
going to be asked to concentrate on
eating Arizona grapes for the next
month or so.
With beginning of grape shipments
from the Salt River valley, Casa
Grande Valley and Yuma Valley,
chambers of commerce, civic clubs,
business firms and the public gener-
ally have been asked by the Arizona
Industrial congress to join in an Eat
Arizona Grapes movement to con-
sumo as much as possible of the 1927
crop in Arizona SO that growers may
receive maximum returns.
Quality of the Arizona grapes is
best demonstrated by the fact that
they co(lmand premiums over other
early grapes on eastern markets, but
as it does not take long for those
markets to become glutted when
California shipments reach their peak
it is obviously Aest for all concerned to
sell them within the state. This sea-
son growers have taken special pre-,
cautions to safeguard quality for To-
cal shipments, and number of grow
ers here have asked the Maricopa
County Farm Bureau to handle mar
keting and maintain a rigid inspect
ion service.
Plans for close cooperation OF the
Arizona Wholesale produce associa-
ton in the Eat Arizona Grapes" and
other specialized activities along the
line of use Arizona Products" have
already been set in motion, and be-
tween the active help of wholesale
produce dealers and the standardiza-
ton efforts of the growers the In
dustrial CongresE believes state mar
kets for many Arizona products will
be materially widened, with benefits
to growers, dealers and consumers
alike.

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, July 13 R,-W Wheat
prices rallied at the last TO-DAY al
though averaging lower most of the
time previous. Relative strength of
the Winnipeg market tended to en-
phasize uneasiness in some quarters
concerning black rust possibilities in
Canada.
Chicago wheat closed irregular, at
a cent net decline to * advance,
corn u cent off to 1s cent gain and
provisions varying from cents set
back to a rise of 30 cents.
Although weather conditions north
west today were favorable, on the
whole and crop observers were in-
clined to be optimistic in regard to
domestic spring wheat, the market
had a nervous undertone. The fact was
recognized that there is yet tir1e for
considerable damage from black rust,
especially in Canada. Moreover Jne
Canadian crop is very late, SO much
SO as to increase sharply the dang
ers of early frost
Meanwhile reports of rapid har-
vesting of domestic winter wheat in
the central west were offset by word
OF disappointing yleldsi IN Illinois ana
Indiana.
Announcement that Kansas City
had sold 100000 bushels of cash wheat
to come to Chicago making 25C,00O
bushels so far this week, acted some
what as a bear influence here. On the
other hand premiums at the gulf of
Mexico were firm with offerings linn
tied and ten cents over September
being bid for deliveries in the last
half of July and the first half of
August. Private estimates were cur
rent placing the seasons yield in Kan
eas at 1OO,0O0,OOO to 12O,O0O,O00
bushels, opinions being rather general
that the government figures on Kan
sas appeared little too hign.
