Quit Your Skidding!

There is no more helpless SEN
sation than the one you get when
your car goes into a skid on a
slippery pavement. Many a
driver has skidded right into the
hospital or the graveyard.
To get out Of skid release the
brakes, If you have applied them,
and turn the front wheels in the
direction in which the rear
wheels are sliding. And be
mighty quick about it!
To prevent skidding, don't ap-
ply the brakes with strong con-
tinuous pressure, but slow down
the car gradually by alternately
applying and releasing the
brakes until you have killed most
of the momentum.
Good tires with unworn treads
will help a great deal to prevent
skidding. So will good chains.
These should always be put on
both rear wheels-never on one
only.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, August S.
William R. Delinski. 20, wanted for the
kidnapping of John K. Otley, ST., Atlanta,
Ga. bank president, was arrested here
today. He readily admitted his identity.
Although San Antonio peace officers
had kept a close lookout for Delinski
since he was reported due here August
2, his capture came through chance.
G. Parker, a Department Of Justice
agent, and Master Sergt.-S S. j. Maloukis
were making their way along crowded
street in the heart Of the downtown
business district when they came face to
face with him.
They seized him simultaneously.
The fugitive had been living at char
liable institutions since he arrived two
or three days ago, it was said.

Paper Says Betty Downes Of
Philadelphia Guarded at
New Hampshire Camp.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, August 5.-The
Record, in a copyrighted story, says
Betty Downes, 15-year-old daughter OF
James R. Downes, chief of freight
transportation of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, is the girl guarded tonight by
New Hampshire militia against kid
naperS.
"A letter, bearing a Philadelphia
postmark, was received Friday by her
father demanding $4,000 advance
ransom" the Record says, adding:
The writer of the letter threatened
to kidnap the girl if the money was not
deposited Saturday night at a place
which the investigators refuse to name.
It is believed. that it was to have been
left somewhere in the vicinity OF Phlla-
delphia."
From other sources, 1t was said that
friends of the girls family feared that
the kidnaper, once he knew his ran
som letter was handed over to the
police, might attempt to take rifle shot
at the guard" This was given as one
of the possible reasons why the militia
was called out to guard large area
about the fashionable Summer camp IN
the rugged Lake Sunapee region In
the New Hampshire hills.

the State constabulary to hospitals, one
man so badly hurt he may die. and re-
suited in undetermined injuries of a
score of strikers. 1t was the fifth day
Of the strike and the most violent.
The fiercest clash was at Oriskany,
scene of revolutionary battle, while
another spirited outbreak came at Yer
non and a third near Rochester. In a
fourth, in Madison County, deputy
sheriff was beaten.
The casualty list: Trooper George
Marshall, struck on the head, scalp cut
and suffering from q hemorrhage OF

Prison, which he broke up by hurting
tear gas over barricade into the midst
of prisoners. .
In each case Of disturbance the
troopers were escorting milk trucks TO

Sergt. Kemp was struck with an axe
handle welded in battle outside
Rochester.
Conflicting reports on the amount OF
milk being received at key dairy sta
tons were given, but a composite pic
ture of this data showed the supply
greatly decreased.
Investigation Requested.
Meanwhile, in the hands Of the
Legislature was Gov. Herbert H. Leh-
mans request for an investigation into
the operations of the State Milk Con-
troll Board, which has been charged by
the belligerent farmers with lack Of

as expected in view of the limit break
yesterday and the fact that the grain
closed fully on the bottom range. De-
cember slumped virtually the limit at
the mornings low of "a cents, and gave
rise to the usual conjecture relative to
the source of the liquidation. At the
low today wheat was selling at levels
fully so cents under the tops reached
last July, when the December position
sold at $1.24 a bushel. Locals ascribed
the further break to liquidation grow
ing out Of Fridays break. which re-
suited in heavy calls for additional

Withdrawal by Germany from the

Recent strength in the building

ported to Washington. This represented
43,999,024 cres signed up, and meant a
reduction in acreage for 1884 of $780,

Wheat officials expressed qualification
at the reception the wheat program has
received, especially in the main wheat
growing States. Because wheat is grown
in more than three-fourths of the
States and under a wide variety of con-
ditions. wheat section workers say it is
unreasonable to expect a complete sign
up Of all wheat farmers. This is eXpe-
cially true in the Eastern States where
individual wheat acreages are small and
where wheat represents only small
