GRAIN PRICES (Markets br Lamson Bros- & Co 212 Union National Bane Eaildlne) CHICAGO, Nov. 22. Wheat covered an Irregular course, being lower early, only to rally to new high prices on the recent upturn and later breaking 6harply below last night's close. Final figures were around the day's low price. The midday strength was cred ited largely to buying by those who had sold early, and the late weakness was accounted for by a heavy tone in stocks and cotton and rumors of riots on the part of unemployed In London and Manchester. The late selling was not very impressive. Corn was heavy throughout the day, with the nearby delivery showing more strength than the later months. Omaha reported a less urgent demand for cash. Lower hog prices had a depressing effect. December oats acted tight and the later months heavy. RANGE OP FUTURES (Markets by Lams on Bros. & Co, 212 Union National Bank Building) CHICAGO, Nov. 22.

Sheriff Lundy Fisher and his deputy were kept busy bringing in jurors from the streets as the regularly summoned supply ran out early. In one case. Sheriff Fisher entered the hardware store of Harry McGee just as the proprietor left by the rear entrance. The sheriff took out the two clerks and marched them to the court room where they were held for duty. Green Awaits Call. Before dismissing the jury, Tuesday Judge Alonzo Bales cautioned them against discussing the case or reading newspaper accounts. The jury was to convene again at 9 o'clock Wednesday morning, when it was expected the state would summon its first witness Clyde Green, garage employe whose name Is alleged to have been carried as a light plant employe under Dillon's sanction was to be one of the first witnesses examined, it was indicated.

' A new variety of wheat has been received from New Zealand by Ernest Downing, son of Poe Downing west of Greenville, from a fruit grower with whom he has been in correspondence, The wheat Is called College Hunter's wheat, and was originated at an experi ment station in New Zealand. The last crop from which the sample is taken, produced a yield of 80 bushels an acre, and two instances are recounted of a field of 70 acres which produced 6,997 bushels. The kernels are short j and thick, and of a light color. The sample has been sown by Downing and the crop will be saved for seed next year. j Corn Contest Winners. Keith Soxley of Franklin township won the first prize with its cash award of $12, in the Darke county one-acre corn contest just ended. A second prize of $10 was won by Edmund Snyder of Palestine.

Chief of Police Will Eversman who has been in Indianapolis since Tuesday attending a meeting, was asked to return to Richmond by the board of police commissioners today. Fierro is an adept at .hiding himself, Italians said, who are acquainted with his killing in Bisaccio. After a murder there, Fierro was able to elude arrest for 30 days. Fierro did not strangle' his wife as she lay in bed, according to Brandon Griffis, assistant prosecuting attorney, who discovered the bodies of the murdered woman and girl. The covers were arranged neatly in a way that only a woman would arrange them, Mr. Griffis said, precluding any idea of a struggle with the woman while she

was sleeping. Evidently the woman had been strangled and then placed in bed, he said. Account books showing bill3 due various local stores were piled neatly on the pillow. A sheet of paper- with the figure "2" with the Latin word for "three" written under it also was found on the pillow. Placed carefully on top of the sheet was a crucifix. A ribbon about a yard long had been woven into a fanciful design and placed in the slain woman's hair. Fierro was in desperate circumstances, according to James F. Pace. local attorney. Mr. Pace recently tried to collect several accounts owed by Fierro to grocers and other persons. An investigation of conditions in the home convinced him that Fierro was unable to meet his obligations, and he did not press the matter, Mr. Pace said. Becomes Angry When first lntormed by Mr. Pace that the accounts, particularly one with Frank Castellucio, had been placed in the attorney's hands for collection, Fierro was very angry and threatened to "get" his creditors. Fierro' s family was suffering from lack of food, Mr. Pace said his Inves tigation showed. The murderer killed his family to end their suffering, Mr. Pace believes. Sheriff Carl Wadman with a posse of about 25 menu directed search. He was on the scene of the murder, west of the city, with deputies and made a thorough survey of the territory. X . Go' to North The observations, together with in formation taken from those who were on the ground at the time of the shooting, led the investigation north ward from the scene of the attack Fierro backed into the woods after the murder was committed. An investigation of the woods showed that plowed fields border the woods on the north and west sides Since there were no tracks in these fields, which would have been visi ble in case the Italian had made his escape by that route, the investiga tion led eastward. It is possible that the pursued might have hidden in the Pennsyl vania gravel pit nearby, but a clew sent to the sheriffs party by mem bers of the city police, also In pus suit, detracted the investigation in the woods and the gravel pit was. not searched then. A shallow ravine well-shielded from general observation by bushes and brush leads through the woods into the gravel pit in which Fierro might have hidden until the searching par ty moved away. Watch Railroads. The sheriff s party moved In a een eral northerly direction following all clues given by farmers. Woods were scoured, roads watched and freight trains searched. Reports that the pursued man had been seen to board freight trains leaving for the north led the party as far north as Losantville. Fountain City and Economy. Tips by railway laborers who were positive that they had seen the man aboard outgoing freight trains were followed. In one case the sheriff's party drove at high speed arriving at the next station ahead of the train only to find another man aboard the train instead of the murderer. - Watch His Home Here. The sheriff's posse searched possible hiding places in the northern part of the county and were assisted by a large body of civilian searchers. A special watch was kept by county officials on the northern part of the city on the theory that Fierro might circle back home. All outgoing trains are being closely watched. Police authorities reported all res idents in the northern part of the county having telephones have been supplied' with description of Fierrc, and asked to report to the authorities. Belief was expressed that Fierro might have escaped on a motorcycle, when it was learned that he has been seen several times riding a red motorcycle equipped with a side car. The wheel did not belong to him, however, being the possession of a young man who roomed at the Fierro home last summer. Coroner S. Edgar Bond will return a finding showing premeditated murder, he said Wednesday. The evl dence so far collected by the coroner indicates that Fierro acted deliberate waft to the Nest Laying Mash -4 OF SERVICE Oflfa, ED. STEGMAN

ly in the execution of the design which

resulted in the death of Mr. Henderson. In the meantime Coroner Bond is trying to establish definitely if Fierro was insane or possessed a lust to kill that extended back for many years. All information on the habits and the mental operations and reactions of Fierro will be sought by the coroner. "Fierro was in Reid Memorial hos pital some time ago," said Dr. Bond, "and the nurses noted that he was very excitable and irritable. He objected to the diet on which he was kept during the period of his Illness and in other ways made nis case a trying one for the attendants. Frightens Woman , "An attorney helped him in some legal matters, and Fierro did some manual work In exchange at the at torney's home. His actions and hi3 brusque manner and uncouth speech frightened the attorney's wife, who summoned her husband home by tele phone. "We are trying to locate relatives, but so far have been able to learn only that he is supposed to have a sister living in Italy. The little girl was unusually bright and a talented singer." The presence of a loaf of bread In the house, indicated the coroner said, that Fierro probably ate a meal in the house before he left to ambush the Pennsylvania section crew. The Italian colony Is reticent about discussing the case, as they seem to fear Fierro, Coroner Bond said. Premier Mussolini Says War Should Have Ended With Germany Throttled (By Associated Press) PARIS, Nov. 22. Benito Mussolini the Italian premier in an interview with the Lausanne correspondent of LeMatin said that the allies should have finished the war, "you in Berlin and we in Vienna and Buda Pest "The enemy ought to have been throttled" the premier is quoted as saying.
