The owner saw the horse about 4.30 Sunday af- ternoon. The animal, which is red with a white fact, was in fair condi- tion with the exception of its mouth which was cut by the bit when it tried to get out of the harness, which was nearly torn from him. He drank eagerly as if without water for a long while. The wagon had six lem- ons in it on a newspaper dated Aug- ust 9. FATHER AND SON FACE SERIOUS CHARGE Louis and Daniel Resnick Charged With Assault With Intent to Kill Daniel and Louis Resnick of Co- jumbia are out under a bond of $3,- 000 each, facing a®charge of assault with intent to kill Myer Bittan of that place. The assault was the ter- mination of an argument ~between them for which the Resnicks were fined $1 and costs, amounting to about $10 each at a session of a court held at_Columbia. The root of the trouble is that Louis Resnick, the father, and his two_sons, Daniel and Harry, Hebrews of Columbia, were employed by Bit- tan to cut grass for him. Bittan cleims that they did not work steady and when they showed up for work Saturday morning he told them that he had someone else to do the work. The Resnicks then commerced to ar- gue with him and Mrs. Bittan stepped in between them, thinking that they would come to blows. Resnick then knocked her out of the way and the four men got into a scrap. The three Resnicks were arrested and charged with assault. Their case was tried before Justice H. P. Collins and Lew- is and Danlel were found guilty and fined $1 and costs which amounted to about $10 apiece which was paid. The court ended about 11.30 and sev- era] of Bittan's friends walked home with him. When they were within about 30 rods of his home his friends started back. Then the men jumped out of the bushes and started to “beat up” Bittan. One of them stab- bed him with a knife in the head. A small artery was severed and he bled profusely. He was later taken to St. Joseph’s hospital. where he was treated by Dr.. O'Nes Sheriff Frink was immediately no- tified and he arrested the two men, Lewis and Daniel and took them to this city where they were, locked up. They were taken before Justice Col- lins where they were released under the $3,000 bonds each. Jacob Berko- witz of 283 Lewiston Avenue of this city acted as surety. Their case will' be heard before Justice Collins at the Town hall at Columbia, next Saturdaj morning at 10_o'clock. Mr. Bittan was taken home from the hospital Sunday morning. He is wealk not seriously injured but i from loss of blood, as a small artery was severed and had to be tied.

PLANS FOR CONTROLLING WHEAT, FLOUR AND EREAD To Obtain Just Prices for America’s Fighting Forces and Their Allies and Reduce the Cost to the General Public Washington, Aug. 12 ministration announced _tonight its plan for controlling wheat, flour and | bread, revealing that the government is prepared to take over the whole 1917 wheat harvest if necessary to conserve the supply, obtain just prices for America’s fighting forces and _their allies, and reduce costs to the general public in the United States. Establishing of buying agencles at all the principal terminals, licensing of elevators and mills, fixing of a price to be considered fair, regulation of the middleman and.of grain exchanges with the elimination of trading in fu- tures, are the chief features of the plan. The licensing will begin Sept. 1 The minimum price of $2 for wheat fixed by congress docs not become ef- fective until next year, but the admin- istration proposes to exercise a very thorough control over this year's crop through powers conferred under the food and export control bills. The food ad- Following is the adminis aouncement: “The disturbance to commerce and short the supplies s a result of the fsolation of certain of the world's wheat producing countries, by eigher belligerent lines or short shipping, #he normal determina- tion of the price of wheat by the ebb and flow of commerce is totally de- stroyed. To Control Speculation. In order to control speculation and to_secure_more equitable distribu- won of the available wheat and flour between their countries, the allied go' ernments have placed the whole pur- chase of their supplies in the hands of one buyer. Also the European neu- trals are now buying their wheat through single government agents in- | stead of in the normal course of com- Therefore the export price of wheat and flour, and thus the real price, if not controlled, will be subjsct to almost a single will of the foreign purchaser. “3—In normal times, American wheat merce. by preaching at 10 a. m. and at 2 and 7 p m: The following ministers of the dis- | trict are to preach Sunday, but the order in which they will speak will be cnnounced later: Rev. G. D. Stanley, Putnam: Rev. C. H. Smith, New London: Rev. C. C, Tib- bitts, Uncasville; Rev. E. A. Legs, Danielson; Rev. A. J. Aldrich, Stafford Springs; Rev. W. C. Darby, Moos Rev. J. H.

Therefore there is danger of a glut in our warehouse vstem_over a considerable period. “4—There are large stocks of wheat which cannot be drawn upon by the lies during the war, but in the event peace or defeat of the submarines these would be available and might | seriously demoralize the demand for American wheat. No Guaranteed Minimum Price. 5—It must be clearly understood that the guaranteed minimum price of per bushel for wheat, set out in the food bill, does not apply to the 1917 arvest, but only to the 1918 harvest, and then under the conditions which must be elaborated. There is, there- fore, no determined price for the 1917 harvest. “The result of this situation is that the normal price-making machinery is entirely broken down unless some effi- cient government action is brought into play, either (a) .the American producer may face a slump in wheat, possibly below his production cost, and (b) the export price of wheat, which ultimately determines the real price, is at the will of a single agency (¢) someone may buy the surplus wheat at any given moment, and if the surplus passes into speculative hands it will be held for higher prices later in the year; (d) with stabilized prices extra hazards are introduced into all distri- bution links which must be paid b the consumer. It must be evident that the United States ®overnment ecan more justly deal with the situation than any of the agencies mentioned.
