They were struck by a Hudson
coach driven by George Rehmar
of Bertha, who was enroute home
from Minneapolis. There were fou,
ladies in the car with Mr.. Rehman
Most every person one meets has
version of how the accident hap
pened. The Herald editor has in
terviewed Deputy Coroner A. F.
Moynihan of this city, the two doct-
ors and others, at Melrose, Deputy
Sheriff Ed Steege, and Jesse Rose
of this city, the latter was un-
doubtedly the last person to con-
verse with the young men before
the tragedy occurred.
The Herald will not attempt tc
place the blame. The versions OF
all those interviewed do not ex-
actly dovetail in all particulars.
In a signed statement made by
Mr.. Schooner who lies in the
Melrose hospital with a compound
fracture of his left limb below the
knee, he is said to have stated that
he was driving east from Melrose
on Highway No. 3. When about
a mile and a half out of town he
started to turn north onto road
leading to the Thielen farm. He
was driving a Ford Coupe at q
speed of about 10 miles an hour
when making the turn. Miss Welle,
of Freeport, and Mr.. Ahrens, of
Sank Rapids, were passengers. He
said he noticed a car coming from
the east, but thought he had ample
time to make the turn and get out
of the way of the oncoming car.
He was almost off the pavement
when the car nit his left rear
fender and swerved the front of
the Coupe from north to slightly
northeast. The car which struck
Schooner was Ford touring car
driven by one of the Svedin
young men. The Collision broke
the right front wheel of the Ford
touring car. He said the Alexan-
dria young men said they were
broke. Schooner says he offered
to take them to4a farm house and
get them something to eat, and
then get wheel off his trailer so
that they could get home.
Just before the collision happen
ed Jesse Rose and Frank Gilbert,
of this city, drove east on the
pavement and when they reached
the New Munich road about 20
rods east of where Schooner turn
ed off to go to the Thielen farm,
Mr.. Rose decided that he would
turn around and come back to
Sank Centre. He saw car COM
ing from the east and waited for
it to get out of the way before he
drove onto the pavement. Mr..
Rose says the car was travelling at
a rapid rate of speed for a light
car. He pulled in behind and
when he reached the 5wo cars
the collision .had taken place
and the Svedin boys and Schooner
were arguing about the response
bility for the collision. Mr.. Rose
says the Svedin boys accused Mr..
Schooner of being cit up" He
denied this, claiming that he had
not had a drink that day. Mr..
Rose, in this connection, states that

Chicago Butter Prices Up;
New York Unchanged
Egg Quotations Are Unsatisfactory
Heavy Poultry Shipments
Weakens Market

Butter markets last week at Chi
cago and New York have shown
somewhat different tendencies. This
situation is, of course, traceable
largely to the supply of butter and
the actual buying demand for cur
rent consumption. Butter receipts
on the larger Eastern markets
during the past week have decreas-
ed. However, this has not been as
marked in New York as other cit
les.
Chicago market on 90 score
standards today is AN cents, COM
pared with AZ cents a week ago
New York 90 score extras today 48
cents which is unchanged.
In some sections of the middle
west there is a slight increase in
the volume of new laid eggs being
received. However, of this new
laid stock is comparatively small on
basis of total receipts. General
quality of eggs continues irregular
and many eggs show the effects of
being held in the country. Actual
selling prices of current receipts
varying according to quality of
product being sold.
The quoted markets on live and
dressed poultry have declined be-
cause there has been a consider
able increase in the poultry move
ment throughout the country. In
dications at this time are that the
present movement of poultry will
continue and prospects for con-
tinued lower tendency on paying
prices and selling values.

quoted as follows: Live fowl II
