British ssf Shf Slas opsa for
 Fourth Time
AMERICAN HAD BIG LEAD
Margin Of Victory Is Three Up and One to play.Match Ends on ssth Hoie-Pair Provides Greatest Thrills ExperieOced tn Years.

St. Andrews, May 17 R - Joyce Wethered won the British women's golf championship today for the fourth time, defeating Glenna Col lett, three times American cham pion. in the final at S6 holes. The American piled up a biz lead on the first nine and was two up at the end of the first IS but could not combat the steady play of her opponent in the afternoon.
 . The British girls margin of vic- tory was three up and one to play, the match ending when Miss Weth- cred won the 35th hole. The Ameri- can girl started home with a pair Of threes. reducing her opponents mar gin from four up to two up but she was not able to reduce it more dur ing the final eight holes.
 The 35-hoie battle between the two great girl players will rank with the famous golf battles. of the cen- turtles over the historic St. Andrews course. The British girl lived up to her reputation as a wonder golfer and the American champion showed herself almost her equal.
 Misses Wethered and Collett pro- vided more golfing thrills than St. Andrews has known since Bobby Jones won the open championship here in 1927 with an almost breath less final round.
 Crowds estimated at 10000 be- came almost uncomfortable at the 33d. 34th and 35th holes. Police joined dozens of men and women stewards and with the greatest dif- ficulty cleared the fairway for the play to continue.
 As 4lenna missed her last putt, she rushed smilinsly 10 congratulate her opponent. The two girls in the midst of a sursing crowd of excited golf enthusiasts had to be extricated by police and escorted to their hotels nearby, while the cheering crowds surrounded the hotel entrances and demanded speeches.

PLAN ID REBUILD CLEVELAND CLINIC 'We Must Go On" Says Dr.
 Crle, Director CoR0NER'S INQUEST OPENS

Probakle-Blaune for Disaster AL
 tributed to Young Stcamfitter for
 Leaving steam Pipe Uncovered. Cleveland, O., May IT R)-An of- ficial inquest in the Cleveland clinic disaster which has claimed a toll of |le5 lives was begun today by Coun- ty Coroner A. J. Pearse. Simultane- ously, those of the clinics staff of doctors, who survived the disaster. opened temporary headquarters in another building and prepared to carry on" the semi -philanthropic work that was ended 50 abruptly Wednesday by fire, explosions and deadly poison gas.
 Backing the group of doctors of the clinic were SS of Cleveland's most wealthy and prominent citi- zens with almost unlimited resources at their command. Samuel E. Math- CT, nationally known for his philan- ,hropy, headed the committee.
 Struck by property damage es- timated at Ss0o,ooo. the original clinic will be rebuilt.
 Dr. Crile to Continue
 Dr. George w. Grille, one of the founders of the institution and it's director, will be at the head of the new, clinic. ... We must go on,' he said. Grief stricken and overburdened with the tragedy which had come upon him. the surgeon. who had gained international renown through goiter research and other medical discoveries, laid plans with the com- mittee for reestablishment of the in- stitution. The loss from the explo- siona and ire was. set today at s7b0,o 900. principally in medical rec. ords. The death toll in tho e&plssiens mounted last night, and even today 1t was feared that all those whe eventually will succumb to the nox- ious fumes had not been counted. Three firemen and as many police men who aided in rescue work went i 10 hospitals last night. Others were i'll at their homes. among them Fire Battalion Chief Michael J. Graham.
 One more victim of the poison gas of the clinic disaster died early today. Ben Jones. c9. fullback on fbo 1NoE Coptnr n nnl1 nae FNnk ball team and prominent in profess sional football circles. died at his home in Grove City. Pa Jones was one of the first persons removed from the clinic after the blast. He told friends yesterday he felt no ill effects from the exper- fence and yesterday morning drove his car to Grove City. 150 mile trip.
 | Late last night Jones collapsed and he died within few hours with his young wife and two year old ] daughter at his bedside.
 Search for Patients Physicians declared that those who survive the next 24 hours probably will not suffer permanent effects from their exposure to the deadly gas. But grave concern was felt for those who were reported injured last 1 night and a search for 75 missing" | patients was started.
 l These persons. officials announced had appointments for examinations at the Clinic. Their names were given out in order that they may re- port themselves uninjured or under- go examination. Some of these might have left the building without notifying Clinic officials or police, it vas feared. If their lungs were fill ed with the gases there still was possibility today that they might | sUccumb.

Washington. May IT (UP)-A strategic plan for handling the dif- ficult farm and tariff problems was entered upon today by administfa- ton leaders in the house. They are confident the plan will meet with success.
 First it calls for killing the debsn- ture clause of the farm bill in . conference of committees represent ing the house and senate. and next final adoption of tho original bill creating the $500. 900, 900 revolving fund to be administered by . Fed eral farm board for promotion of orderly marketing.
 The first move toward that end was taken when the house took up a special rule for tho bill. limiting debate to one hour. All Of the time would be allotted to Chairman ons!i of the rules committee who Wouid parcel it out as he saw At.

THORO INSPECTION
OF HUDSON CARS

with a firm belief that sales

deavor is to render the type of
service that anticipates the every
need and desire of the Hudson-Es-

Danielson, local Hudson Essex
dealer.
eve have applied railroad main
tenance principles to automobiles.
This plan is known as preventative
maintenance. In railroad operation
each locomotive is automatically
shunted to the maintenance divi-
sion at the termination of a def
mite number of miles of opera
ton. Thorough inspection often
reveals impending trouble and thru
this system the railroads of Amer
lea have reduced accidents due to
locomotive failure to almost min
imum.
This system we have found can
very easily be applied to the oper-
alton and servicing of automobiles.
For a nominal charge our owners
may place their cars under preven-
tative maintenance contract. We
ask these owners to bring their
cars in to our service station al
the end of each thousand miles.

COLORADO PRISON.
MUTINY Is FOURTH.
In RIOT EPIDEMIC.

New York, Oct. 4.-Mutiny of
convicts at the Colorado state pris-
on at Canon City which cost the
lives of seven guards and five pris-
oners brought to four the number
of major prison outbreaks during
he past few months. In that peri
cd the wave of instruction has
swept across the country.
In the first of these serious out
breaks, three convicts were killed
at Clinton Prison, Dannemora, N.
Y, known to the underworld as
Siberia" Thirteen hundred pris-
oners there attempted to rush the
guards last July, burned several of
the prison buildings, and finally
were subdued by guards and by
troops from Plattsburgh camp.
Six days later, 1,700 inmates at
the Auburn, n. Y, prison mutinied.
Several were killed, eleven Others
wounded and four escaped. There,
too, the prisoners set fire to half
dozen buildings, resulting in boss
es estimated at S250,000. State
troopers aided guards in quelling
the riot.
On Aug. 1, mutinous convicts al
the federal penitentiary at Leaven-
worth, Kan, rebelled over the quail
ity of their food and the system OF
discipline. One prisoner was killed
and three were injured.

tions are to be held are junior
clerk, junior calculating machine
operator, and junior tabulating ma
chine operator, with an entrance
salary of 81 ,440 a year, and under
card-punch operator with an en-
trance salary of S1,260 a year.
These examinations are open 10
all citizens of the United States,
both men and women, who meet
the requirements.
1t is expected that large num-
Der of appointments will be made
The length of service will probably
range from one to two years in
most cases but in no case will it
extend beyond December 81, 1892.
Full information regarding these
examinations can be obtained from
the United States Civil Service
Commission, Washington, d. c., OF
from the Secretary of the United
States Civil Service Board at the
postoffice or customhouse in any
CITY.

The car is thoroughly inspected
and minor adjustments made as
needed. These inspections are of
such nature that all ordinary and
most OF the unusual service re-
quirements are anticipated.
We have found that this sys-
tenn is real economy for our own
ers. 1t reduces maintenance cost
by making needed repairs before
real damage has been done. 1t also
tends to reduce the possibility of
the owner being inconvenienced by
car failure on the road. Probably
the greatest benefit that accrues
to the owner under this plan is
the ease of mind he has in know
ing that his carl is being regularly
inspected and its every require
ment except gas, oil and water be-
ing anticipated"

PRESENT TERMINAL
FACILITIES HIT
FARMERS POCKET

Bozeman. Mont.-With ca h
wheat selling under future quota
tions, and a generally descending
price scale in spite of short crop,
the present wheat marketing sea
son strikingly illustrates the in
ability of present terminal market
ing facilities to absorb heavy grain
shipments, and points to the need
of increased storage facilities on
farms and at shipping points, &C
cording to E. ]. Bell, jr., marketing
specialist for the Montana Expert
ment Station.
While the Canadian wheat crop
is about half of what it was last
year and spring wheat crop in the
United States is about a third less
than in 1928, the country is wit
Messing an unusual congestion at
terminal markets. There was a
rather large carry-over of wheat
from the past season and at the
same time farmers have moved
their new crop on to the market
more rapidly than ever before, the
marketing specialist points out.
Peak Reached In July
Prices have been very materially
affected, Mr.. Bell says, pointing
out that the peak of the seasons
prices was reached July II, at
which time September futures sold
at S1.52 3-S and the top price of
No. Dark Northern spring wheat
with IA per cent protein was S1.73
Is. On September z, No. 1 Dark
Northern with IA per cent protein
had dropped SO cents from the
high point and September futures
were selling Is cents below.
On September z, wheat of con-
tract grade No. Northern spring,
was selling from two to four cents
under September futures, seven to
nine cents under December futures
and Is to II cents under May fu-
lures, a situation which market
observers attribute to congested
markets making cash wheat less
desirable than wheat to be deliv-
cred at a later date.
Montana's wheat is setting a
new high record for protein con-
tent but premiums for protein con-
tent are at a very low ebb at the
present time, Mr.. Bell states. The
4,546 samples of Montana wheat
tested in state laboratories up ia
September 10, averaged 1890.

Whippet Braking System
Provides Ample Safety

A braking system on four wheels
that assures the maximum of pro-
lection and safety for quick stops
has been built into both the Whip
pet Four and Six according to en-
gineers of the Willys-Overland Co.,
who considered ample braking
power equally as vital as quick ac-
celeration in these cars.
In the case of the Whippet Six
a two-shoe brake which is the
latest Bendix development, is used
and gives a much better braking
condition than even that which
prevailed in the previous model,
the engineers says. This of course
was particularly necessary in view
of the increase in weight of the
car.
