FATE OF NEGROES IN JURIES' HAND THIS AFTERNOON Both Elwood Wilson and Cor nelius Shepherd Murder Trials Finished "Whether or not Elwood 'Wilson and Cornelius Shepherd shall pay the law's ; penalty on the electric chair for the murders respectively of City Patrolman Lewis C. Hippie and Henry Walker, : was given to Dauphin county Juries late this afternoon to determine. | The final efforts of both men to 1 1 save themselves from the were made with the convening of December I criminal court this morning, and by the noon recess the attorneys for the 1 ' defense in each instance had finished their arguments to the juries. Attorney Harvey E. Knupp handled Wilson's case in No. 1 room before President Judge Kunkel and Attorney W. J. Carter argued for the defense before Additional Law Judge McCar rell in No. 2 room. District Attornev M. E .Stroup and Assistant District At , tornev Frank B. Wiekersham will sum up the State's evidence respectively in the Wilson and Shepherd cases. Tito Moon Gets Into the Case The only high light in the winding up of the Wilson case was offered by Weather Observer E. R. Demain. He explained upon request of the Com monwealth's attorneys, that during the early morning hours of June 23—the | time at which Hippie was deliberated ! shot down close to the Market street I subway—the moon rode high in the | skies and helped the electric lights i brighten the streets. The question of whether or not the moon shown that morning -was raised j by the questioning of the defense of i testimony offered by W. W. First, and | other witnesses for the State. First, a Pennsy telegraph operator, saw the shooting of Hippie from his window In a nearby telegraph tower. He was able to plainly discern the ' two men because the moon made the night so bright, he said. Wllvm Wears the "Murder Cap" j President Judge Kunkel declined to • permit the jury to visit the scene of i the shooting to-night in order that the ! surroundings might be viewed by i moonlight. This was because all of I the evidence has been given to the j Jury. j For a few minutes to-dav James I White, who is accused with Wilson of I the murder of Patrolman Hippie, and j Wilson himself, strolled about the courtroom together while the jurv j watched interestedly. The men walk. | ed over to the window—while vigilant ; deputies looked warily on—so that | the light could fall on their features. I Both took off their coats, stood in var ious postures—and Wilson repeatedly ! put on and removed his cap. In tlie Moonlight The headgear, "the murder cap," as it has been generally referred to dur ing the trial, is the cap that was i taken from Wilson the night of the 1 shooting and which is Identical, ac- i cording to witnesses with the cap that I was worn by the man who fired at I . Patrolman Hippie. In his own defense Shepherd took ! 'ho stand In No. 2 and admitted that; Jhe had shot Henry Walker during a , crap game at the Brownstone quarries near Hummelstown. eH did so, how ever, because he feared for his own life- as he declared Walker had re peatedly threatend him. Furthermore, he said, as he stepped Into the crap : shooters' circle. Walker threw his j hand toward his hip and Shepherd de \ clared he thought he meant to draw , a gun. Persuasion Fftßk aOtewood. one of the crap shooters, who sat in the circle, tosti i fled that Walker made no move to | draw a weapon, but that Shepherd ; fired while his victim was kneeling on i the ground. And before the Jury | aGtewood kneeled to illustrate.

Question of Whether Price Shall Be Raised Here Still Unsettled [FLOURING EXPERT TALKS Throws Light on Variance of Prices During Last Sev eral Years To raise the price or not to raise it? j That Is the question uppermost in the minds of Harrisburg bakers. The Pennsylvania Master Bakers' ! Association has advised the six-cent ioaf. Bakers all agree that they need the money. But City Sealer Reel Bays, j "it's an attempt to sou go the public"; | State Sealer Sweeney declares the ba- j kers are already getting' "all that's coming to them"—and so there vou are! The status-quo is this—bread is still five cents. Conferences are being held by the bakers to decide the momen tary question of a raise. The I 'lour Situation S. S. Miller, representative of one of the bin flouring industries of the country, with offices in the Telegraph ; building, to-day Kave out a statement on the wheat and flour situation which thrown considerable light on the pro j posal of the bakers to raise the price Jof bread. Mr. Miller shows how prices [have varied during the past several I | years and says the end is not vet. His ' statement follows: "The newspapers have given con siderable space recently to the prices I of foodstuffs and especially the bread i question." said Mr. Miller. "The bread question has been dls-1 cussed from tho bakers' standpoint and front a standpoint of the sealer of weights and measures for both th State and the city, these departments operating as a safeguard to the buying public. "It is admitted that articles of all kinds, regardless of the fact as to whether they be foodstuffs, wearing apparel or manufactured goods, used in large building operations, by rail road companies, etc., have advanced In price to considerable extent. "Since the bread question has be- i como an important subject for dls-! cussion, 1 thought it would be well to give to the public some facts con- : cerning llour. Flour, which repre sents the greatest item of expense in a bread bakery, has advanced in pri< e I from December i>. 191?., to the present! date approximately 100 per cent On : December 5. 1913, the quality of flour 1 ns used in the large bakeries was sold for $4.30 per barrel; on December 3,1 1914. $5,85: December 5, 1915. $6.05; j December 5, 1916, $9.35. All deliver ed f. o. b. Harrisburg. This same flour, within the last 60 days lias been as high as $10.25 per barrel. "Being interested in the sale of I flour, it is natural to suppose that 1 , would have no particular Interest in anv • controversy the buying public might ' have with the l>aker. but it is my opln- • ion that the public should be dealt fairly with and In the thought of ad vancing the price of bread. I am of | the opinion that the information with ! reference to the cost of flour, cover- ! lng a period of four years is of inter est not only to the public, but to those who operate the departments of weights and measures In the citv of Harrisburg, and the State of Pennsyl vania, "The above figures are correct in every detail and the only conclusion , that can be reached from the baker's ! standpoint is that some adjustment I will have to be made with reference to the selling prices of this comino- < dlty. "Flour is not the only article which ' has advanced in price, but every com modlty which comes into a bakery for the manufacture of the finished "pro-, duct has had considerable advances; paper, spices, fuel, labor and articles necessary for the maintenance of de livery. "My purpose as a flour merchant in advancing this information is to let the public know exactly what condi tions are at the present time, and have been for some time past; and I believe after all that the only way to operate a business successfullv is to take the public Into its confidence and give It the conditions as they exist. The making of bread is not done un der any secret process and anv house wife can testify to the fact that the cost of homemade bread has ad vanced In gerat proportions, because of the higher prices of articles used in baking. "In conclusion it is the opinion the millers and all large bakers, that the flour market is going to maintain its high prices for some time to come and among many reasons thov advance for this thought is that the mills will be compelled to discontinue manufac turing for some time if tratflc condi tions do not improve. All sales of flour are being mode, at present, sub ject to shipping delays. Embargoes are being placed by some of the rail roads and the question of moving grain i& one that is very perplexing.
