SKELETON FOUND
IN VALLEY NOT
BAUMCARTEKER'S

Once more the deep, dark secrets
of the desert have been probed and
grim tragedy was uncovered in the
doing. AS result officials of two
counties, Imperial and Los Angeles.
are faced with another of those
mysteries which call for the exercise
ot great patience aud perseverance.
Early yesterday morning, Angus
ton Orduna a Mexican boy playing
near his home about 101a miles
northwest of Brawley on the Girard
ranch, discovered human skuR.
Terrified the boy ran to his father,
who with the assistance of others
started excavating at a spot near
by which showed evidences of hav-
ing been disturbed some time pre-
viously.
After some time a human skeleton
was pnearthed, wrapped in taxpayer
and tied about with stout rope,
The elder Orduna Immediately got
in communication with officers of
the county anu :. c. Cockley, dep
MY coroner, with Investigators from
the sheriff's and district attorneys
offices were on the scene, making
their Investigations. The only clue
to the man S original whereabouts
was copy of the Los Angeles
Times for February ), 1880, which
was found in the grave beside the
body.
\ bullet hole in the skull showed
it was the opinion of Officers that
the murder had been committed at
some distance from Brawley and
the body then brought TO that spot
for interment.
Efforts to ic2ntify the skeleton
led the officials to report the mat
ter to Los Angeles county authori-
lies who sought to link the find with
the disappearance of either Frank
Baumgarteker, Joe Porazzio or Tony
Buccola, who have been reported
missing from that city since Feb
ruary.
1t was definitely proven this
morning that the skeleton is not
that of Baugarteaer, because, ac-
eording to records kept of that
missing person, the facts of the
case do not tally. While the rec

ceases there. The information sent
from Los Angeles states that Baum

two bridges in his lower jaw, while
the remaining hair on the head of
the skeleton is dark brown in color

IN TRIAL
Radicals Defense Wins
Point On Presentation
OF Evidence.
BARBER ON STAND
District Attorneys In
vestigator Sole Witness
Yet Examined. -.

A verbal skirmish between attor-
neys for the prosecution and the de
Tense in the trial of the nine IN
dicted radicals before Judge Thomp-
son in superior court, occurred this
morning over the question Of sub
mitting evidence to the jury in
direct manner. The occasion came
when letter purporting to have
come directly from communist head
quarters in Moscow to alleged af-
filiated organizations in California,
was presented to :. l.. Barber, un-
dercover agent for the district at.
torney's office On the witness stand
for this consideration. After he
had signified that it was the same
shown him by defendants now on
trial while he was member OF
their group seeking evidence
against them, and that it purported
TO refer TO the affiliation of the
Trade Union Unity League to head
quarters in the Russian capitol, Dis
trict Attorney Emer neaid ordered
the letter filed with the clerk of
the court as evidence for the state.
Immediately thereupon, Il. B. Hen
derson, defense attorney, objected
g. such filing Of this letter as evil
dencc before il had been presented
and read to the jury, maintaining
that nothing could be introduced as
evidence unless it were presented
directly to the jury. Head then
stated that he was endeavoring to
prove the illegality of the commun.
ist party and that this letter upheld
this contention. lie further said
that il would ne read TO the jury at
n later time and could be taken by
them into their room when they
came TO debate the ease. Hender-
son maintained hat anything
brought up In evidence, and i'll par
ticular this letter, must be submit
ted directly to the jury and not
merely placed on the clerks desk,
and this submission of evidence to
the Jury must be done at the time
of it's introduction into the ease.
Defense Sustained
This objection and contention of
the defense was upheld by Judge
Thompson who ruled that the letter
should be read to the jury. Assist
ant Prosecutor Clarance Smith then
addressed the court, showing that
as many books, pamphlets and other
written documentary matter would
be introduced by the prosecution as
evidence later in the trial il wa,
hardly possible that such could bc
read throughout to the jury. The
court replied that such n contingen
cy could be ruled upon at the proper
time and that the case at present
was concerned merely with the let
ter from Moscow which was to b,
read TO the jury.
After this, the case proceeded
with the provision that the disput

In the Stock Market
rBy Thomson & McKinnonl


NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-With so
much depending on successful
year in the motor industry, it is
refreshing to note the reaction to
the first day of the automobile
show. Competent observers seem
agreed that both mechanical and
body improvements have created a
deep impression upon the immense
crowd of visitors, and executives in
form lis that prospective buyers are
as plentiful as at any exhibition in
recent years. The old line COM
panies covering the price range
from below $1,000 to the highest
priced models. seem to attract the
greatest crowds This was par
ticularlv noticeable in the exhibits
by General Motors. Studebaker,
Chrysler. and Hudson. There is
considerable optimism among deal
ers and the opinion is freely ex-
pressed that drop Of not more
than ten percent in sales was likely
from last years record breaking
business. Certainly to all appear
ances, a normal satisfactory year
in the industry is assured. Already
the steel mills have begun stepping
up production as result of fresh
orders from the motor industry and
expansion in other industries
directly concerned should not be
long in following this lead. With
many of the best motor shares SELL
ing at less than ten times earnings
We can not help but feel that the
upward movement started last week
could carry much further. The pos
Sibility of a reduction in the english
discount rate this week affords adj
ditionaI reason for anticipating the
improvement III the market which
wa believe we shall see.

UNEVEN PRICES
FEATURE GRAIN
TRADE OPENING
Effect of Russian Selling
Felt in Liverpool
Wheat Market.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Jan. 6.-Wheat opened
unevenly higher to lower on the
Board of Trade today. Liverpool
was firm early on the light ship
mems, but turned dull and declined
to 4 cent higher. There was very
little activity, with only scattered
selling and fair buying support. Corn
and oats we're affected by wheat,
but varied in the minor fractions.
At the opening wheat was Il cent
lower to a cent higher, corn was Is
cent lower to Is cent higher, and
oats was unchanged. Provisions
opened easy.
Liverpool opened stronger than
expected this morning. But the
sentimental effect of RuSsia's SELL
ing wheat is very depressing and
has increased the bear pressure. The
impression is that Russia will not
become an important factor in the
market. Domestic statistics are ex-
pected to be bulliSh and this may
offset the beariSh influences some
what.
Interest In corn is very light. The
farmers are following their custom
of marketing poor corn first, which
is depressing the cash market. The
crop is short but the futures are
not advancing correspondingly, due
to the fact that wheat is ruling the
market.
Oats remain in narrow limits,
with the interest light 1t needs in
spiration from the other grains to
acquire firmneSs.

SILVER BREAKS
follow LEVELS
New York Declines to "a
Cents an Ounce.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-Bar silver
prices at both New York and Lon
don broke to new record low levels
today, according to Handy G5 Har-
mon, silver bullion specialists.
The price at New York declined to
4434 cents an ounce, off g cent from
Saturdays price, while the London
price broke to 2298 shillings per
ounce, off 5-16 shilling from Satur-
days price.
A number of theories have been
advanced for the decline in silver
prices. Principal Of these was the
report that a large Chinese pool in
the metal had failed and the fact
that number of countries are
placing their currencies on a gold
basis, instead OF silver.
This morning advices from the
east said that five Chinese banks
had failed on account of the de-
cline in silver and this report hast
ened selling today.
