He a4 four hours later in a hospital . . The police admitted tonight it was one of the most baffling mysteries with which they have had to deal in a long time. In an effort to determine whether Elwell was murdered or committed su- icide his associates in the social and club life of the city were closely ques- tioned by the' police, Who declined to reveal the result of their investigation. The mystery was intensified by failure of the police to find the weapon with which Mr. Elwell had been shot. Tt became. known tonight taht Mr. Elwell dined on the Ritz Carlton roof Thursday night with a party of friends, who inalued Mr: and M ¢ Waper Lewisohn and Miss Viola Jicauss, Mrs. Lewisohn's sister. There were four oth- ers in the party. Leaving the hotel, the party went to a midnight theatrical per- formance and about. two o'clock this morning Mr. Elwell bade goodbye to the Lewisohns at Broadway ,and Forty- second street. They drove to their Fifth avenue home and Elwell strolled in the direc- tion of Eighth avenue. Nothing more is known of his movements until his housekeeper, Mrs. Marie Larson, found him in the living room of his home at 8:30 this morning’ seated in an arm | chair facing the street window. A 'postman -delivered mail at 7:30 a. m, which the polke -ay was taken by Mr. Elwell. 'The *.cumstances in- dicate the shooting took place in the period that elapsed between the mail de- livery and the arrival of his house- keeper. The police are convinced robbery was Emporia, Kas., June 11.—The Hessian fly has made its appearance in a number of wheat fields in Lyon county, in some instances having destroyed 50 per cent. of thecrop, according to E. G. Kelly of the state agricuitural college, Who in- spected the flelds here. He advised the farmers that the surest way of destroying the pest was by plowing the flelds soon after harvest. TRADE BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES'AND MEXICO The trade of the United States with Mexico has been “heading for” the $300,000,000 line in the fiscal year 1920, which ends with next month. Our trade with Mexico even during the dis- turbed period since the resignation of President Diaz in 1911 has shown re- markable gains. It totaled, says a statement by The National City Bank of New York, $115,000,000 in 1910; drop- ped to $110,000,000 in 1915; then, des- | pite the continued disturbances’ since that date, advanced to $191,000,000 in 1917, $245,000,000 in 1918, and $278,000,~ 000 in 1919, while the March figures, the latest received, indicated a total of over $300,000,000 in the fiscal year end- ing with June 1920. Whether recent events in Mexico will prevent its reaching that high water mark of $300,000,000 for the current fiscal vear cannot be foreto!d. It is a fact, how- ever, that the sales by the United States to our 15,000,000 neighbors in Mexico in the calendar year 1919 were more than to the 300,000,000 inhabi- tants of ndia or the 400,000,000 of China. Our imports from Mexico in the calendar year 1919 were $14892 000; exports to Mexico $131,452,000. What are the articles forming this large and rapidly increasing trade with our neighbors at the south, separated from the United State by only an imaginary line or at the best a com- : paratively narrow stream of water?
