WHEAT FORGED DOWN
 TO NEW LOW LEVELS
Decline Caused By Beansh Construc' ton Put On Government Crop
 Reports-Corn Sags.

Chicago, Sept. II P-Brisk sell- ing by commission houses and Chi cago traders forced the March and May deliveries of wheat down almost , cents bushel to new low levels Of the season at the start of trad ing today. A bearish construction placed on the United States and Canadian official government crop reports issued yesterday after the close caused the decline. All de- liveries were sharply lower. Corn also was decidedly lower because the government report suggested a larger crop than the trade expected.
 Opening f ac lower than yester- days finish, wheat declined still more, but the downward movement was checked and prices continued steady at the new levels. Corn start, ed 1h-2h down, sagged a little further and then rested.

Covering Less Active After Heavy Buying-Scattered Selling From
 South Increases.

New York, Sept. Il F-Cotton opened steady today at unchanged prices to a decline of points in response to relatively easy Liverpool cables.

This eased the market after the call with new October sell ing off to 1114 and March to 11.5S or about 10 to IS points net lower on the more active positions. There was some further trade buying and covering on the decline, however, and the market was fairly steady at the end of the first half hour with prices or points up from the lowest.
 Liverpool cables said that some Bombay buying in that market had been supplied by hedging and real izing.

DRUSILLA Carr,
FIGURE IN LONG
LAND WAR, DEAD
Aged Woman Who BattIed
for 'Squatter'S Rights
Passes at Gary.

BIZ ntted Press
GARY, Ind. Sept 16.-The body
of Mrs. Drusilla Carr lay in state
today and hundreds of Lake and
Porter county residents, who had
been her friends during the seventy
four turbulent years of her life,
viewed it for the last time.
Mrs. Carr, who played one Of the
most picturesque roles in the history
of the Calumet district, died at her
home Monday after short illness.
She Sensed the approaching end and
had summoned her lawyers from La
Porte and Valparaiso to hear an
important message" but her lips
were sealed before they arrived.
A 22-year court fight to quiet title
to 100 acres Of valuable Lake Mich
igan Shorthand, which the Cars
settled in 1876 shortly after they
were married, was waged by the
aged woman. Robert Carr, the hus-
band, died in the late COS and it was
not until 1903 that the suit was
started over the title.
Always Militant Figure
Since that time there has been all
almost continuous battle in the
courts of Lake and Porter counties
and the Indiana supreme court.
Through it all Mrs. Carr was
militant figure, proclaiming her
"squatter's rights" and "squatter's
sovereignty" through one battle
after another. In May, 1929, the
supreme court held that Mrs. Carr
was the rightful owner of the prop
erty "by reason of more than twenty
years of peaceful and undisputed
possession"
New Battles Started
But new battles we're started over
division Of the property and Mrs.
Carr had from time to time, par
celed out bits of it to her lawyers for
their fees. Out of what at first had
been 100 acres she had left scant
forty acres, and in addition the ris-
ing of Lake Michigan had robbed
the land of considerable water
frontage.
Some of the attorneys had died
and others had transferred their
alleged titles to others. Hearings
on the claims were held and short
time ago it was indicated that the
suits would be decided in favor of
Mrs. Carr.
Special Judge Albert w. Chapman,
Plymouth, announced today he
would return a final decision in the
case Sept. 81.
