Officials handling th Halls-Mills murder myctry dre a close veil of secrecy about themselves toil ay, evading the army of nw.pa-per men who camped on their trail. Through the Inevitable "leaks." however, came circumstantial reports that most of the day's activities tended to draw more sharply into the spotlight Nicholas TJahmer. fialoonkeeper, who was Jailed last nlKht cn a statutory charge preferred hy hia daughter Pearl, 1Z, also in Jail on a chanre of incorrigibility. Bahmer's record was checked and re-checked and his story of h!3 whereabouts on the nlRht of the playlnff of the Itev. Edward Wheeler Hall and his choir leader, Mrs. Eleanor Reinhardt Milk, was pone over with a fine tooth comb. Attempts also were made to question him further, but Jail attendants re ported he was so badly shattered of j nerve as a result of deprivation of alcoholic ptimulant that he was unable to talk coherently. Denies Daughter's Claim Bahmer's daughter has told the authorities in one1 of her many statement.", that Bahmer had threatened to cut both her own throat and that of Raymond Schneider, her .sweetheart on the night that the minister and chorister were dain and the latter' throat was slashed. Uahmer denied this but admitted he was looking for Schneider that nipht with a pistol. He said, however, that he was at home and in bed when the murders were committed. His pi.'tol, he addef, was of 4 5 caliber while that with which the fdaying1 was committed was a .32. While the authorities were checking up new leads, and re-checklns the story told by Schneider, on which 1? year old Clifford Hayes ha. been arrested for the murder, citizens of New Rrunswick forped ahead with plans for a "tat? day" Saturday, to raise a "Hayes justice fund."

Public dissatisfaction over the inability of the officials to clear up the mystery found vent eaily today In a mob attack upon Deputy Sheriff Frank P. Kirby. Kirby is reputed to have followed Hayes and Schneider for two weeks after the murder, finally getting the statement from Schneider which resuited in Hayes arrest.

One of the questions on which it ia expected there will be important differences between the Turks and Rritish is the cost of the British occupation of Constantinople and other areas in Asia Minor sine 1918. The British have kept careful accounts of the expenditures, which are regarded as an ultimate charge against Turkey. It Is bellet ed tho Mil will run into a hundred million pounds sterling, without rcrard to what claims might be advanced by France, which maintained 20,000 troops In theso regions for a year and a half. The Ke malist. Ions have contended that the charge.s are unjust, claiming it was possible to give them peace three years ago. When the first conference assembles, this financial question will ba introduced in connection with the I ottoman public debt. In which i-ranee ls a large sharer. Thus far, the arguments of the Kfmalists h ive ben that Turkey ha piid her war debts by the Iosü of two thirds of her territory and therefore should not be a-sked to paj more. Likewise the Kvmalists have con s la tently refused to print their owrj money, in order to preserve the stability of the Turkish pound. The total outstanding paper Ls 200,00', 000 Turkish pounds. At the present exchange one dollar is worth approximately one and two thirds Turkish pounds. Three years ago Turkey had approximately 50,0"C,i'OO gedd pounds.

ARMOUR REFUSES TO TELL EXTENT OF SPECULATION

Meat Paeker to Appear Again Before Federal Trade Commission Frida v. IS CAUTIOUS IN ANSWERS Financier Subjected to Long Questioning Admits "Occasional" Speculation. CSnCAGO, Oct. 11. (By A. P.) J. Oyden Armour, meat packer and capitalist, decllae-d today for the present at leat to reveal to the federal trade commission the oxtent of his speculations in wheat and corn during the period from July 15. 1920 to May 31. 1922. Mr. Armour will appear again on Friday morning at 10 o'clock after conferring with hia attorneys and tell the commis.don whether ho will or will not give it the rlrure sought. Admitting that he had been in the market "occasionally" as a speculator during the,-period under investigation, Mr. Armour declined to name his brokers or reveal the lump gum of his long or short lines on any given day. "I cannot answer that off-hand and I don't know how that can interest this commission," he replied when Victor Murdock, vice chairman, pressed, him for the llgures. 'Were your operations quito extensive?" the examiners asked. "I presume that would depend on a man's point of view," Mr. Armour said. Defend Sptx'ulatlcn Mr. Armour defended speculation in grain and th'i marketing machinery wnlch maktt it possible because the farmer Is afforded an opportunity to sell his produce on any day of the year in any open market. The producer does not always get the price he la entitled to', he admitted but on the average, he said, the farmer does benefit by the Kystom." Ills views on the speculative market were brought out by Mr. Murdock who recalled his acquaintance with P. D. Armour, founder of the Armour fortunes and father of the present head of the firm. It was P. D. Armour who broke the great Joe Leiter wheat corner in IS 97. Leiter had forty million bushels of wheat purchaped and as delivery day approached the elder Armour was 9,000,000 bushels short, with no wheat in tho market. lie rushed ice-breaking tu ?s to the straits of Mackinac and the Soo and kept the channels open while his freighters brought down the grain from Duluth. When the day for settlement came Armour not only met his own short sales but from the Ffmlnply bottomless pits of his pre&t- raln elevators, poured another 9,000,000 bushels into the rr arket and broke the corner. 'Thirty years ago." Mr. Murdock recalled to the younger Armour, "I was a newspaper reporter here in Chicago and it was part of my duty to call on your father every week. I got to know him as a newspaper man will know a man of his magnitude. He had a marvelous knowledge of the grain and produce markets. Since those days you have taken hLs place and are interested In the development of thisj great middlewestern basin. Do you believe, from your own obsert atlor.s, that the speculative plan of the future market gives the producer a square deal?"

Coal production start! off Lils week at a marked and almost record breaking rate which Fuel Distributor Spens declared In a statement to day was an index to the effective railroad corporation obtained for the industry in the attempt, to make up deficiencies : n the country's fuel supply due. to the miners strike. At the s-ame -line he chamber of commerce of the United Snatos gave out the results of a survev It ha.s made in co-operation with the gov- J ernment Indicating that stocks of; coal intended for domestic consumpj tion in most parts of the country are practlca.'.ly non-existent and that there is still a critical necessity for more cal to be moved into certain area? for this purpose. According to reports to the American Railway asfocLatlon on Mondat 40.535 cars of bituminous. 14,101 more than on Saturday of laM week were produced. This ls the Largest day's output since D"c. 1920. and amounted to rt.ore than 2.00.000 tens. There wa ahso produced 6,4 45 cars of anthracite, 2SS mere han on Saturday. Mr. Sper.s declared that railroads were being urged to maintain- a movement of at least ll.OOOsCOO tons j of bituminoufl coal a week and that the records of the present week w-e Illustrating the effect of methods adopted by the committee of all rail executive, headed by Daniel F.

Tough Problem of Parentage Given to Supreme Court

Must Decide Who Was Mother of Creek Indian Valuable Oil Land at Stake. WASHINGTON. Oct. 11. (By A F.) One cf Solomon's problems wa.s presented to the supreme court today for solution when it was asked to determine who was th.e mother t Thomas Atkins, a Creek Indian, to whom was patented land in Oklahoma of great valuo becaue of oil. The. court In reaching its decision. I however, will not have the affections! or a mother to aid it. for tho child long since died, and the woman who the lower federal courts held was the mother 1 also dead. The second woman in the case I alive but demented and in the custody ot a guardian. When the Dawes commission made allotments to the Crfek Indians, it listed Thomas Atkins as a member of that tribe and a patent fcr 160 acres of land was issued in his name.
