MAIL LOOT IS
NEAR MILLION
Postal Carrier Tells Story
of Chicago HoIdup.
United Press

~ ChfteG PfcSS
CHICAGO, Dec. IA veteran
mail carrier told today how he and
his guard were robbed Tuesday in
Chicago's loop of registered mail
which may prove worth more than
$1,000, 900.
While the carrier, Fred Voelsch,
told his story, officials of the loop
banks checked the losses and esti-
mated they might run from 5000, 900
to more than 81, 200, 900. The loss,
they said, is the governments.
I'VE were near Clark and Adams"
said Voelsch in recounting how the
bandits robbed him and Frank
StaStny, postal guard, while the two
we're transferring mail from the
main p~ostof1ce to the First National
bank and the First Union Trust
Company.
"A new Ford swept up to the
curb. A man leaped out and pin
Toned Stastny's arms behind him.
Another jerked the guards revolver
from its holster, A third man
showed a gun me.
""This is a stickup,' he shouted.
Then two men grabbed the mail
pouches from my hand and jumped
back into their automobile.
Stastny ran to a store and called
police. I jumped into a taxicab and
tried to follow the bandits car, but
lost it in heavy traffic"
Police described the robbery as the
most daring and most perfectly
executed since the famous Roundout
mail theft, for which big Tim"
Murphy and several others were
sent to prison.
Voelsch said the entire robbery
lasted not more than so seconds.
Police said it was timed so that
there was not a patrolman on duty
within several blocks, although the
banks r in the center of the loop
and only a few blocks from what is
called "the busiest corner in the
world"
Bank officials said most of the
securities stolen probably were not
negotiable.

GRAIN FUTURES
UP SHARPLY ON
FOREIGN NEWS
Corn, Oats and Rye Benefit
by Strength in Wheat
Options.
By HAROLD z. RAINvILLE
United Press stan Correspondent

CHICAGO. Dec. T.-Sharply and
Unexpectedly higher Liverpool ca
bles gave wheat 8 y to l cent
higher opening on the Board Of
Trade today. December led the adj
vance, which was aided by the late
strength in stocks Tuesday and
again this morning.
With little pressure on the mar
ket, scattered buying and short
covering was sufficient TO send the
market to higher levels. Corn.
oats and rye benefited by the firm
ness in wheat and the weather to
score fractional gains.
Corn moved up q to \ cent at
the opening; oats gained 4 cent. and
rye was unevenly = cent lower to
4 cent higher. Provisions were
very dull, but steady.
Futures at Winnipeg vent to new
lows for the season, and on a gold
basis, December is below the 40
cent level. Despite this and a fur
ther advance in sterling, Liverpool
was = to = cent higher at mid
afternoon. Colder weather is re-
ported over the belt and Kansas is
without snow.
A long line of December corn is
believed to be in the process of
liquidation which keeps the market
unsettled. The demand for cash
corn remains fairly good.
Oats also is lowering around its
all-time lows and it takes only a
fractional decline to set new rec
ords. Rallies r rather quick on
such dips as buying improves.

WIND FLOW COUNTED
Careful Check Kept on Amount
Passing Over Canadian Station.
By Times Specid

By ItWeS SpectQt
OTTAWA, Canada, Dec. T.
Where wind goes may be a poser,
but how fast and how much of it
flows past a given point in a year
carefully is recorded by the Cana
dian government experimental farm,
near here. In 1881 the record shows
that 38.918 miles of wind passed
over the recording point, or an av-
erage of LOG miles a day, or less
than Az miles an hour.
March failed to maintain its repu-
tation as the windiest month, the
honor being taken by April, with
1854 miles of wind. March was
second, with 4,168 miles, and Deem
Der third, with 4,092.
