ALLEGED INTOXICANT
PROVES TO BE WATER
Directed Verdict Given Alice
Thorne When Chemist Of
fers Testimony.

Two months ago Alice Thorne, coll
ored, 700 block Balls court, was ar
rested and charged with possessing four
gallons of alcohol which police said
they located in her home. Today after
half-hour of argument between Gov
eminent and defense counsel and
examination of several witnesses it was
discovered that the alleged alcohol was
water.
DR.. Albert A. Spear, chemist for the
Treasury Department, the last witness
to testify in the case, enlightened the
court that his analysis revealed H2O
as composition of the liquid police
sent him. The chemist had remained
silent during the trial because until
he entered the courtroom he said that
he thought another case, made by the
same officers, was to be tried.
In December the colored woman had
been released on $500 bond and later
demanded jury trial through her at
torney, Robert I. Miller. NO attention
had been given the case until today
when 1t was set for trial, because the
police in their information papers had
described the seizure of the alleged in
toxicant in a trap under the floor OF
the Thorne home.
The information read that, although
the floor was covered with rug and q
big dog was standing guard, they didn't
fool the police. who, after removing the
hazards, made the large haul"
After Spears testimony Miller de-
manded that Judge Hit grant a di-
rected verdict of not guilty The mag
iStrate granted the motion with the
remark that it was still legal for one
to have water in ones room.

the budget would be balanced but indi-
Gated that he would utilize some of the

pressed belief that some of the present
high taxes would end by paralyzing
production.
The United States of Europe" was
not called by that name but got APP

WHEAT REBOUNDS
AFTER SHARP DROP
Values Beaten Down Below
81, but Market Closes
Above $1.W.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, February 25.-Wheat
prices crashed down below the dollar
mark today in a panicky drop cents
below yesterdays figures, and then as
sensationally rebounded in the last hour
of trading to finish at ssc decline to 5sc
advance.
The trade generally attributed the
spectacular break to the refusal of the
Farmers National Grain Corporation to
purchase cash wheat from other holders
than co-operatives affiliated with 1t.
Quoted statements by Alexander Legge,
chairman of the Farm Board, were
construed as indicating the board was
unconcerned with grain after it passed
from the hands OF co-operators into the
hands of operators.
Corn, oats and rye tumbled along
with wheat to new bottoms, but all
climbed back near yesterdays closing
levels in the final squirt
The midsesSion prices were the lowest
for this season and below any offers at
this time of year In many seasons.
March futures dropped as low as 1884
a bushel, and May sold down to 1929
