POTATO PRICES IN SLUMP HERE Bumper Crop and Growers Fear Dry Rot. A reduction In the wholesale price of potatoes went into effect here today, when commission bouses announced that potatoea would be aold at $3 and $3.30 per 150-pound aack. Thla is a general reduction of $1 per sack. The reduction la due, commission men said, to the fact that there haa been a hamper crop thU year and growera are forcing the drop on the market because of their fear that It will be attacked by dry rot and also because there la no plausible reason In view for bolding II In hopes of higher prices. / Last year many growers held their crop* and lost heavily* due to attacks of the dry rot and the experience seems to have made them cautious.

ESCHBACH FINDS LAW VIOLATED; DOES NOTHING Republican Officials Fail to Prosecute Alleged Combine in Restraint of Trade. PLAN TO SWAY VOTERS Jesse Eschbnch, in his official capacity as head of the Goodrich coal commission, declares. In a public statement, that he has discovered & combination in restraint of trade, which combination tends to increase the pVlee of coal to the consumers In Indtuna. There is in the statute books of Indiana a special statute, enacted many years ago, designed to deal with just such conditions as Mr. Eschbnch publlcely declares he has uncovered. Mr. Eschbach has done nothing to start any prosecutions in accordance with this statute, and the other officials who are specifically charged with the enforcement of thle statute, say they hare no Information such as Mr. Eschbach declares he possesses. For several weeks there has been an undented report in circulation that the managers of the Hepubllean campaign hoped to finish the campaign with a whirlwind drive against the coal Industry In Indiana in the hopes of maklug the voter's believe that reltef from the high costs of coal can only be obtained through the continuation of the Goodrlch-MeCray administration of Indtana. COMPARISON FOR JUDGING SINCERITY. The sincerity of Mr. Eschbach's public announcements may be Judged by comparlson of his statement relative to the coal Industry with the statutes of the State. Mr. Eschbach says: "This commission has evidence to show that retailers In some Indiana eomtnu-. | nlties have such a close organisation with Indiana operators that no customer In certain territories can buy a pound of coal direct from mines or collieries, unless the coal goes through the bands of a retailer who collects his regular profit." Tbs statute says: “That every scheme, design, understanding, contract, combination In tbe form of a trust or otherwise, or conspiracy In restraint of trade or conimercer or to create or carry ont restrictions In trade or commerce • • • or to limit or reduce the production, or Increase or reduce the price of merchandise or any commodity, natural or artificial, or to prevent competition in manufacturing, within or without this State, la hereby declared to be illegal.

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.—Ten New York grumblers w<on $250,000 as a result of the “fixing” of the 1910 world’s series, and tbe scheme through which the crooked work was accomplished was directed by a ‘‘master mind,” la was charged hers this afternoon by Abe Attell, former .featherweight pugilist, whose name has been linked with the baseball scandal. Several days ago Attell promise te tell the public a startling story when the proper time arrived. As yet he has failed to identify any of the gambling fraternity upon "hose shoulders he says the “fixing” of the 1919 series rests. “White Sox players never gv any money from me,” said Attell. “I never acted as the fixer. There Is a ■master mind’ who planned and operated the whole affair. Naturally, he was assisted by several others. I know the names of all of those men, but I am not ready to reveal them. So far as I know ten gamblers won at least $250,000.” CHICAGO, Sept. 30.—The Cook County grand jury, which Investigated crookedness In baseball will continue Its probe in spite of the family squabble In the office of State's Attorney Maclay Hoyne.

READY TO HEAR MORE CONFESSIONS Judge McDonald is said to, have stated that he would appoint the grand jury as a special investigating body after term expires snd instruct the members to continue their probe . into alleged crooked baseball. McDonald said there ha* been no consideration of appointing a special proseentor because of Hoyne's alleged attitude. “We have gotten along very well with the State's attorney’s office so far and see no reason to hire a special prosecutor,” said the Judge. McDonald said if more players had con'esslons to make they would be received, but that no Immunity would be granted.
