PARK
Heart Attack Stops
Career of Worlds
Champions Owner

DETROIT, Nov. IS GN.S),
Frank j. Navin, 65-year-olds mil
Nonaire owner Of the Detroit
Tigers baseball club, died sud
denly from a heart attack here to
day while horseback riding with
his wife.
His death came at the apex Of
his career, a scant few weeks after
he had watched the Tigers fulfill
his lifelong ambition Of bringing
Q world championship to Detroit,
Navin a devoted horseman, and
Mrs. Navin had gone to a riding
club early this morning for a ride
and set out on different bride
paths. About a half an hour later,
she returned to the clubhouse, eX.
pecttng to find her husband await
ing for her.
Found Beside Path
A few minutes later, a riderlesS
horse trotted up. It was Navin's.
A search was started ediately
and Navin was found lying beside
a bride path about one half mile
from the hunt club.
Harry Link, Navin's chauffeur,
who was with the party that
found him, said:
'Mr. Navin's body was right be-
side the path. It looked as if he
might have slumped off the horse
and fell easily. His right hand was
pressed up close to his heart"
Navin was rushed to Highland
Park Osteopathic Hospital and,
although doctors worked over him
In an effort to revive him, they
later said they believed he was
dead on admittance.
Heart Attack Fatal
DR.. j. P. Leonard, superintend-
ent of the hospital, declared:
''Mr. NaVin died Of. a heart at
tack. There are no bruises or in
juries on the body such as might
result from a fall from a horse" {"
He had directed the Detroit
baseball club since 1903. He came
into baseball from the insurance
business, which had brought him
to Detroit from his home town of
Adrian, where he was born April
18, 1871.
In Adrian he attended the public
schools, finishing his education by
graduating from a business col
1ege when he was II. He con-
nected with Samuel F. Angus, an
insurance man in Detroit, and
moved here.
Angus was interested in the
Detroit team, of the Western
League, but found it a losing
proposition and prepared to sell.
Angus interested William H.
Yawkey, Detroit millionaire, as a
purchaser and Yawkey agreed to
purchase the team it he could
buy the services of Angus's man
Navin to run it for him.

LOAN RATE HIT
BY PRESIDENT
BY EARL GOODWIN

President Roosevelt sharply
criticized high interest rates in
real estate transactions at his
press conference today and gave
a very broad hint that 6 per cent
as a general rule is too high in
a financial program expected to
produce a return to prosperity.
The question which prompted
the Presidents disapproval Of
some Of the tight banking situa-
tions throughout the country
arose in connection with his COM
munication to the American
Bankers Association in New Or
leans, in which he said, among
other things, that the bankers
assets, if properly used could
stimulate prosperity.
Pirate" Rates Wiped Out
The President declared that
bankers have it in their power
to retard prosperity by a tight
policy Of lending, or to stimulate
it by liberality.
He said rates vary in different

u. S. Clerk Is Believed
To Have Valuable
Information

A woman today was definitely
linked with the murder Of Co.
rinna Loring, 26-year-old prospec-
tive bride, whose battered body
was found in a clump Of trees
near her Mt. Rainier CMd.) home
last Saturday. An analysis Of
teeth marks on the slain girls
arm disclosed they were made by
a woman, The Washington Times
learned today.
The analysis was made by Lieut..
Robert w. Hicks, now employed by
the District Highway Department.
Hicks, q balliStics expert, was en-
ployed in the investigation Of the
Lindbergh case.
simultaneously with the this
disclosure, Mt. Rainier police
and detectives assigned to the
murder case were reported to be
bringing to Upper Marlboro a
pretty washington Government
clerk. Detectives would not dis
close her connection in the case.
Clues For Analysis
Hicks had these clues for
analysis:
/. Threads Of human hair found
entwined in 9 button on the slain
girls dress.
2. Teeth marks found in the
girls arm.
8. Pieces of cord found tightly
tied around Miss Loring's neck.
With the specimens Of hair
found on the slain girls clothing,
Hicks was given two samples Of
hair to compare with the hair
found on the girl. Hair which
was turned over for analysis, it
was learned, pretty well matches
the hair of one of the samples.
Authorities refused to divulge
what they learned from an exam
ination Of the cord taken from
Miss Loring's neck.
Judging from the scientific
measurements, the teeth marks
are those Of a woman. the analysis
definitely shows.
Test Bit Of Flesh
Also turned over to Hicks fol
chemical analysis were bits d
human flesh which were found
underneath the girls finger. I
was learned the absence Of hal
growth on the flesh seems to sub
stantiate the theory that a woman
is involved in the mysteriou
murder.

OLD FANTASTIC
LAWS ON BOOKS
HARD TO PASS A NORMAL DAY
WITHOUT SOME INFRACTION
MOVE FOR REPEAL

If you spent a normal day today,
you probably are in danger of pining
} away for the next 100 years Of your
life in some Montana Jail. That sad
state of affairs exists because Of an
army of foolish laws enscrolled on
the statute books Of the state-the
forgotten brainstorms Of legislators
Of earlier days.
1nview of this condition, a group of
three representatives has resolved to
undertake an unusual task for law
makers. They have started campaigning
for the repeal of obsolete legislation, a
code book housekeeping.
Here's why:
If you told a friend to "go jump in
the lake" this morning you were guilty
Of a felony.
If you stopped to watch a dog fight,
you are subject to a 5000 fine and
three months in Jail.
If you left the gate to your front
yard open when you went to work, you
are punishable by a 500 fine.
If you agreed with Sonny when he
said teacher was a 'meany," you can
be fined 500, and go to Jail to boot.
If you hung the cat by the scruff
of his neck when you put it outside
this morning, you may spend three
months in Jail.
If you go to a prizefight tonight,
help promote one or leave the state to
witness one, you can take a years va
cation in the state prison for your in
interest.
If you bet on elections, you run the
risk of trying to collect in a jail cell.

grain bugs which caused considerable
damage to grain fields in north central

on the pests.
In 1894 about &c. O0. 900 acres of cul-
tivated land in the United States were
retired from the production of corn,
wheat, cotton and tobacco, under a
program that had for its objective the
adjustment of these basic commodities
to the demands of existing domestic
and foreign markets.
Alfalfa seed production amounted to
approximately 49, 900 900 pounds in 1884.
which was one-fifth smaller than the
1888 crop but nearly equal to the Swear
average. The greatest decreases in the
1884 production occurred in Montana,
South Dakota, and Minnesota, where
in the aggregate less than one-half as
much alfalfa seed was produced as in
1888, according to the Bureau of Agri-
cultural Economics.
Sweet clover seed amounted to ap-
proximately 1880, 900 pounds in 1884
and $4,000, 900 in 1888. The five-year

Livestock Prices
Jump to 80 Level

The highest prices since July. 1881,
for hogs and since November, 1880, for
cattle were recently established in the
livestock markets.
Hogs scared 10 to Is cents to a peak
to s8.4O a hundredweight, while prime
cattle, although nc more than fully
steady, touched a new high on the
present uptrend Of $685..
Buyers were forced to the higher
levels by continued scarcity of market
ings at livestock centers. Hog receipts
in seven principal markets, including
Chicago, were estimated at $4,000, COM
pared with $4,000 a year ago. Cattle
supplies totaled 23,800, compared with
$4,000 a year ago.

STATE HAS 1900
MILES
WORK COMPLETED IS so PERCENT
OF PROJECTS LINED UP
FOR FEDERAL AID

More than 1900 miles of improved
highways have been completed within
the bounds of the state to date, and
many projects are at present under
contract, according to r. d. RAIDER,
chief engineer for the Montana high
way commission.
The mileage completed represents
more than 80 percent of that which
was lined up for federal aid. The pres
ent system includes one highway ex-
tending from Idaho to North Dakota,
entirely finished, and another nearing
completion.
The north-south highways, extend
ing from the Canadian line to the
southern border of the state, are also
completely constructed and except for
short stretches are oiled. All roads are
Of standard construction, allowing a
24-foot traffic lane.
Mr.. RAIDER states there will be avail
able for Montana roads on July l, a
total of s. ,500, 900 in federal funds
which will be matched by 50, O00, 00O
state money, derived from gasoline tax
This combined sum will be expended
during the coming year.
Highways completed include No. 10
formerly the Yellowstone trail, extend
ing from the Idaho line on the west
to the North Dakota boundary; No.
or the Roosevelt highway, extending
from Kalispell to North Dakota, across
the northern part of the state.
Highway No. 81, extending from
Monida, through Butte to Sweet Grass
and Calgary, is completely constructed
and except for short distances has been
oiled. Nc. SO, extending from Gardiner
to Glacier park, is also finished and
almost completely oiled.
Mr.. RAIDER also said that a survey
during 1884 disclosed that tourist traf-
fic in the state increased more than
81 percent over the year previous and
cars bearing Montana licenses showed
an increase of 10 percent for the same
period.
The number of automobile licenses
issued by the state jumped from no.
600 to more than 100000 during 1884
he declared.
Montana established a national rec
ord during 1884 by completing 1900
miles of road oiling, a figure higher
than in any other state, Mr.. RAIDER
claims.
