Aug. 14.—A budget of new highs on big volume was established at the opening today as a result of short covering and general accumulation of overnight orders. Opening* prices were generally 1 to 14 points above the close, with Dupont scoring the biggest advance, selling at 314 - All high-priced Is sues appeared to enjoy the biggest market with Steel running up to a new high of 155%.

Keen interest was manifested on the curb market in the new stock .of General Motors, which will he used to pay the 50 per cent stock distribution.

By Vnitrd Press CHICAGO, Aug. 14.—Corn lost the influence it has exerted over the local grain prices, when it closed lower in all positions on the Chicago Board of Trade, while wheat was sharply higher and oats were unchanged. Wheat closed near the day’s high, being 1% cents over Friday's close in all deliveries. Offerings were light throughout the session. Short covering by locals in week-end “even-ing-up" operations caused the bulge. Cash values were steady. Receipts were 278 cars. Corn broke sharply early in the session, but staged a g<jod rally on short covering. The closing range was 54 to \ cents under Friday's final figures, with September showing the greatest weakness.

HIGHEREEN IN MELLETJ NEI (Continued From Page 1) Too high a price was asked for their story." The Press, in Friday's article, said: One Way to Get Him Two men planned the murder. Their names are as familiar in Canton as the name of the victim of their scheme. Mellett was spoiling their game of graft, bootlegging, dope peddling and gambling. They would get Mellett. There was but one way to get him. That was to kill him. Worked Out in Jungle : The details of the slaying were worked out in a little back room in a “jungle" shack. "We’ll take no chances,” they said. They wouldn’t even hire the gunmen. The go-betweens were called In. There tvere two of them. They were told that Mellett must be killed. Arrange for this murder, was the order of the higher-ups. Money? > Plenty of it for the go-betweens and the killers. The go-betweens started on their search for a man or men who Would kill Don Mellett for hire. The seach lasted several weeks. Massillon was combed. Akron was combed. The search was the weak spot in the plot. Too' many men were let In on the fact that Don Mellett was to be killed. The go-betweens, eager foe the blood money, forgot that men will talk. Five Face Electric Chair Men have talked. That's why the story can be told now. That's why the murder indictments will he returned. That's why at least five men will face the electric chair. Finally the go-betweens found a man who would kill Mellett. Mellett, with his editorial whip, had lashed this man. Mellett had nipped his game of crime. This man was taken to the high-er-ups. Session after session followed. Sessions in the back room of the "jungle" shack. The night of the murder was picked out. The man was to go to Mellett's home, hide near his garage. As the editor put away his car for the night, the man was to pull the trigger of his gun. Mellett would nip their game, would he? Not for long. The night of the murder cam®, hut Mellett wasn't shot that night. Somebody Warned Him Somebody had telephoned him of the plot. So the higher-ups passed the word to lie low for a few days. A second night was selected. Mellett wasn't suspicious now. He thought the telephone call was just a scare. M€llett, his wife and friends went to a roadhouse for dinner. He arrived home just before midnight. While his wife and friends went into the house. Mellett drove his car into the garage. The killer was on the job. Shots. Two, three, four, five shots. Mellettwould nip their game, would he? Not any longer. Mellett'fi dead. This Is the story the jurors will hear when they convene next Monday.

WHEELER SAYS NO TO ANDREWS’JOB WITH AN‘UNLESS’ Couches Statement to Hint Reconsideration if Offer Is Made to Him. Times W.ashinaton Bureau. 13z2 New York Avenue WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.—With a nation-wide campaign getting well under way to make him prohibition czar when Lincoln C. Andrews resigns. Wayne B. Wheeler, principal lobbyist for the Anti-Saloon League, today although announcing he could not accept the post, couched his statement to indicate a possible reconsideration. He said he could not accept for these reasons: "It is contrary to the policy of the Anti-Saloon League for an official of the league to accept a political appointment or' use the churches which support the league for personal political gain. I am convinced that I can serve the cause of prohibition and its enforcement better in the position I now have. We believe law enforcement can best be secured through regularly chosen public officers who do their duty, by urging the removal of derelict officers and by helping to elect or secure the appointment of courageous, effective officers of the law. "But, even if I were free to accept ’the position, I shoulcj not do so until I had been assured that the present system of dividend responsibility would he supplanted by a prohibition enforcement bureau and real authority given to the officer actually In charge. With the final authority in the internal revenue commission, who can give but little attention to the work, and secondary authority only in the office held out to the public and who is actually in charge, a condition has developed which is unsatisfactory. ON GiALLEGED ’Police Sent to Office by Telephone Operator, Two men were held in city prison today on charges of intoxication, blind tiger and vagrancy, following an alleged attack on an 18-year-old girl In the office of the Marion Brokerage Company, 10 N. Pennsylvania St. Detectives are investigating circumstances found by police. Cases cf the two were continued In municipal court until Aug. 16. The men, Irwin Miller, 28, and Lee Moore, 26, both gave their addresses as Ravenswood. According to police, they operate the Marion Brokerage Company. Police were sent to the office by a telephone operator who said a girl screamed into the phone there. A jug containing three-quarters of a gallon of whisky was found. Both the men and the girl had been drinking, the officers said. The girl, cut and bruised about the back and arms, was taken to city hospital, treated and later taken home. She was charged with intoxication and vagrancy. Her case also was continued until Aug. 16.
WINTER WHEAT YIELDJNCREASES Twenty-One Bushels an Acre Is Forecast. Bu Times Special LAFAYETTE, Ind., Aug. 14.—A winter wheat yield of twenty-one bushels an acre, about four bushels higher than a month ago, raising the Indiana crop about seven million bushels, Is forecast by M. M. Justin of the depa-tment of agricultural statistics of the Purdue agricultural experiment station, in a report today. The Increase is reported general over the State and the unexpected outturn seems related to quality, reported as ninetyeight, with ninety last year and eighty-nine for a ten-year average. Total productions is the largest since the war years, although the acreage Is the smallest since 1918. Corn prospects for the State changed hut little in July. The condition Is reported lower In the South and West and higher in the East and North than last month. Local differences in rainfall and soil have caused much variation. Com has tasseled short and the stalks are not heavy, so marked improvement in prospects is unlikely. The State production forecast for corn this year is 148,072,00*0 bushels, compared with a production of 201,313,000 bushels In 1925. Oats generally Improved In July and cutting was nearly finished. The yield of 71,031,000 bushels expected Is only slightly below the average. Rye is reported as averaging 15.6 bushels an acre, the highest since 1918. This means a production of 2.748,000 bushels, as compared with 1,744.000 bushels last year. The hay crop is now expected to be about 4 per cent larger than seemed .probable last month, the change being due to better yields of timothy than expected. roberTHharding DIES Robert N.
