lessly raking the bonfire. He told
her:
go back to the front door.
I'll run in and tidy up bit"
He hadn't heard the bell ring.
Is that statement going to
weigh bitterly against him? They
are saying so-saying the bell was
very loud.
But Mrs. Place had no sus-
picions. She waited with her eli
ents. Unexpectedly - piercingly
came a cry-a scream. Then
frantic, rushing footsteps. The
door was pulled open. Lamson,
white as a ghost, shaking. from
head to foot and covered with
blood, cried out at them:
"My God! My wife has been
murdered"
Why did he say "murdered?"
that's another cruel detail.
Shocking Discovery
There was wild hour in the
little rose-covered home. In the
bathroom they found the pale,
nude body of the beautiful girl.
Done frightfully to death.
She was sitting in the bathtub,
her head dropped over the side,
and her long, shiny brown hair
trailing the floor. One limp hand
touched her husbands slipper.
The tub was half filled with
water. It was pale pink. There
was no blood on the faucets and
none on the rim. But two feet
distant was a crimson pool, and
on the wall where the girl-wife's
nightgown hung there were large
red stains. The sheriff says:
"He killed her-a deliberate,
brutal murder"
Mrs. Brown, his nearest neigh
bo, says he didn't kill her. adding:
"They called me over. 1
found him crOuched beside the
bathtub, the unclad body Of his
wife clasped in his arms. He
was holding her head. sObbing
Historically, and calling her
name. He tried to lift her and
the blood Splashed all over him.
He dropped in faint when we
led him away"
In the bonfire under the brush
lay a 10-inch pipe. Thew say it
has blood stains. They say it is
the death weapon, and with this

struck and struck and struck upon
his startled, terror-muted wife.

LONDON. June 13 GN.SO
'"Ther're off"
The World Economic Confer
ence, the worlds largest conven-
tion, is under way in London's
Geology Museum.
There may be a happy omen in
the fact that this brand new build
ing, instead of one of London's
many historical time-worn struc-
lures, is being employed for these
highly important proceedings.
It may mean a new kind of
''deal."
Away to Good Start
The conference got off to a
flying start with an address of
welcome by His Majesty, King
George of England. read and de-
livered in two languages to the
most important audience that one
man has ever had.
The event was marked with in
tense but silent curiosity and in.
tereSt within and without the
building. For two hours before
the conference opened, thousands
Of Londoners crowded the streets
for radius of five blocks around
the hall
Yes, your little correspondent
arrived early enough to observe
this great manifestation. OF
course, it was only the first day
and no criterion, but 1 am de-
termined to do my conference
shopping early.
Upon arriving, I decided to look
the press quarters over first and
was directed to the cellar, where
they're situated. But I soon
found that the cellar was not the
best place to get the low-down on
the higher-upS, so me and2eIny
shadow assembled to mingle with
the delegates and try to get in on
the ground floor.
Gets Seat In Front Row
Well, I made the front row of
the press gallery (thanks to the
Importance of International News
Servlce) and saw the whole world
pass in review by proxy.
There were some 1000 seats. All
were occupied by delegates, ad-
visors, experts, and statisticians
as we'll as my conferees of the
ever-present press. The biggest
conference in the world had the
smallest guest audience of less
than 100 people.
It made me think Of a good old
fashioned American national con-
vention because it was so differ
ent.
There we're no banners to indi-
cate the home districts of dele
gates, no bands playing, no flags
waving, and no floor leaders, and
UP to the time of going to press
no one has known the thrill ex-
perienced at Chicago when 1 was
awakened at o'clock in the
morning to take the count for one
who later smiled when I was
counted out, (Ain't politics
funny?)

COTTON SLIDES.
WITH OTHER
MARKETS

NEW YORK, Feb. IA GN.S).
Cotton futures turned easier to-
ward noon today in sympathy
with securities and commodities
markets.
Selling by cooperative brokers
in July, coupled with commission
house liquidation in March and
scattered selling by the South and
spot firms eased an early advance
and substituted declines. There
was light demand for contracts
from Wall Street and the trade.
The weather map showed con-
tinued cold m the interior of the
belt, Oklahoma and east Texas;
rains along the gulf coast and
general rain in the Eastern belt,
heavy along the coast.
At midday prices were off 3 to
Z points, with March off 7 at SGT;

MICHIGAN BANK
/. DEBACLE HITS
STOCKS
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Feb. IA GNS0.
Heavy selling due to the bank
ing holiday in Michigan brought
a weak stock market today.
Losses ran from / to more
than 3 points with volume pick
ing up sharply on the decline.
Turnover in the first half hour
alone was 240,000 shares.
Motor Shares Hardest Hit
The automobile shares were
the hardest hit due to Michi-
gan's position as the nations
big motor production center. Cen
eral Motors and Chrysler were
pressed for sale from the opening
gong and lost nealy 2 points
each before the decline was
checked.
other motor shares were heavy
as we'll as the accessories. Rails
gave way abruptly and losses ran
to more than points in this
group. The weakest members
were Delaware and Hudson,
Atchison and Union Pacific.
Homestake Mining alone ran
counter to the trend, squirting
5 points to a new all-time high.
It's strength aided the other gold
shares but gains were small.
Weakness was general in all
markets. Bonds were carried
down by a sharp decline in rail-
road obligations. Wheat and cot
ton led a reactionary move in
commodities.
Sterling Is Strong
Sterling was strong in the for
eign exchange market, reflecting
the change in the British atti-
tude regarding the forthcoming
debt discussions.
American Telephone gave way
sharply despite the expectation
the regular dividend would be
declared tomorrow. Other lead
ing stocks were weak. Losses
ran from to more than 2
points.
Low-priced issues like Montgom-
cry Ward and General Electric
were heavily sold.
