BETTER TIMES AT HAND Much Wealth Will Be Added to the Farmers’ Store This Year, He Says, and This Will Help Manufacturing Industries—None of His Railroad Lines Contemplating Construction Work at Present. New York, July 1 .—Optimistic words uttered by James J. Hill of St. Paul are the subject of much com- ment among financiers. Mr. Hill has proved himself an excellent authority on crop conditions and his remarks on the subject are always read in New York with interest. He says: “We are going to have a good, big, average crop. Not bumper crops, but a good round yield, comparing well with the average. The dmoney value will be larger than usual, for prices will be higher. Corn is now selling around 65 cents in Nebraska and ‘wheat about $1.30 in Minneapolis. The time of low prices for grain has passed. A great deal of wealth will be added to the farmers’ store by the sale of crops this year. “As for the business outlook there is no menace ahead. Good crops bring- ing high prices will help the manu- facturing industries. There should be a steady expansion in that line. Prob- ably it will receive some additional stimulus after congress adjourns.” Mr. Hill is inclined to treat lightly the story of the construction by the Burlington of the Herrin Southern, from " Herrin, Ill, to New Orleans, thus paralleling the Illinois Central to the Gulf as well as to Omaha. Mr. Hill also doubted if it were true that the Burlington was getting ready to build a long extension from Chey- enne, in the southeastern part of Wy- oming, diagonally across the state to connect with a branch now operated down RBig Basin river to Kirby, Wyo. “None of our lines are doing much bullding now,” he said, “nor is there much work contemplated for the near future.” TO PLACE DESIRABLE ALIENS Department of Commerce Asks Aid of State Executives. ‘Washington, July 1 .—Co-operation between the governors of the various states and territories and the division of information of the department of commerce and labor to promote a more beneficial distribution of aliens in the congested centers of the coun- try is sought in a communication ‘which was sent out to the chief execu- tives of states by T. V. Powderly, chief of the division of information. This step has been taken in view of the general demand for immigration of a character that will make good, peaceful, industrious citizens. The letters were written by way of sug- gestion to invite an exchange of opin- fons and to secure the views of the governors. It is particularly desired that all, available data regarding the resources, products and physical char- acteristics of each state and territory be sent to the bureau. REFUSE TO OBEY THE RULES Suffragettes Making It Lively for Jail Authorities. London, July 1 —The suffragettes who were sent to Holloway jail on charges of disorderly conduct while attempting to present a petition to Premier Asquith are making it lively for the jail authorities. According to Information given out by the Women’s Social and Political union the latest batch of “martyrs” are following up the tactics inaugurated by Miss Dun- lop. In addition to refusing to eat the prisoners decline persistently to change their street clothes for the prison garb. The rules of silence also are ignored and, in short, there has broken out a general revolt against the attempt to treat them as ordinary criminals. IS THROUGH BOTH HOUSES Income Tax Amendment Now Up to States for Action. ‘Washington, July 1 .—The house passed the income tax constitutional amendment by a vote of 317 to 14. It is now up to the legislatures of the several states to say whether there shall be an income tax amendment to the Constitution. No amendment having been made to the resolution it now goes to the president for his signature. Germany Joins In Protest. Peking, July 1 .—Germany has joined the United States, Great Brit- ain and Austria-Hungary in notifying China that she does not recognize the preliminary agreement between Rus- #ia and China for the administration of the Russlan rallroad area in Man- churia. WILL REPLY TO CHARGES Senate Committee Preparing State- ment on Tariff Changes. Washington, July It .—Members of the senate committee on finance are preparing a statement replylng to charges that senate amendmetits to the tariff bill will result in increasing the cost of woolen and cotton cloth- ing, shoes and other articles of com- won wear, as well as other neces- Eities of life. The statement will show that the duty on shoes has been re- duced; that there has not been a single change in the rates on woolen goods and that the rates on cotton have not been increased. Following will be a list of about 500 decreases in rates from the Dingley duties. ‘There is a list of sixty or seventy-five increases. An effort will be made to show that most of the latter are mot @ reallty increases of rates, but that they provide for the collection of the rates fixed by the Dingley law, which had been set aside by the misinter- pretation of that law. Johnson to Fight Kaufman. Chicago, July 14.—Jack Johnson has accepted an offer of a guarantee of $10,000 to fight Al Kaufman, the Pa- cific coast heavyweight. The battle, according to the telegram received by Johnson, will be decided on Aug. 27. Elsie Sigel Was Poisoned. New York, July 1 .—A chemical analysis by Professor George A. Fer- guson of Columbia university has de- tected the presence of poison in the vital organs of Elsie Sigel, who was murdered in the room of Leon Ling and whose body was packed in a trunk. Further chemical tests are be- ing made to determine the nature of the poison. RIVER TRAFFIC REOPENED Celombian Rebels Had Control of Navigation. . Bogota, Colombia, July 1 .—That the situation at Barranquilla has been more serious than was at first sup- Dosed is revealed by the surrender to the government authorities of Gen- eral Daniel Ortiz, chief of the revolu- tionists on the Magdalena river. He has turned over to the authorities the various river steamers and war mate- rial that he succeeded in wresting from the government ten days ago. As a result trafic on the Magdalena river has been re-established. Investigating State Reformatory. Green Bay, Wis,, July 14—Presi- dent A. D. Conover of the state board of control and four other members be- gan an inquiry into conditions at the state reformatory. The investigation is the outcome of the recent death of John Smith, an inmate. The hearing is being conducted at the institution and is public. AMAZING CONFESSION _ OF PRIZE BIGAMIST Unable to State Exactly the Number of His Wives. San Francisco, July 1 .—Christian C. Johnson, sentenced at San Jose to serve seven years in the penitentiary for bigamy, is reported to have con- fessed that he is the mysterious “John Madson,” wanted in many parts of the country for matrimonial Ventures and systematic swindling of ‘Women under promise of marriage, Johnson’s alleged confession, how- ever, is so full of inconsistencles and 80 at variance with statements he has made since his arrest in this city last week that the police authorities are not inclined to give the “confession” full credence. In this confession John- son declares that he has been married to so many women that he cannot count them offhand. “In 1906,” he says, “I quit my busi- mess of buying horses and from that day to this I have been making my living by marrying and making love to women, getting their money and then deserting them.” One of his most amazing feats, ac- cording to his confession, was making love to ten women at one time in Portland, Ore. While he admits that he got money from most of them and that his marriages were part of a get rich quick system Johnson declares that in every instance he spent the money he received upon the victim herself. “They kept me broke all the time,” is the way he expresses it. WHILE CONFEREES ARE OUT 8enate Refuses to Consider Even Minor Legislation. ‘Washington, July 1.—The senate was in session twenty minutes. The major portion of the time of the sit- ting was devoted to a discussion of the unanimous consent agreement not to transact any business while the tarift conference was in progress. The discussion arose over the effort on the part of Senator Carter to have passed a bill pertaining to the affairs of the District of Columbia on the ground that the bill was “such a little one” that no harm could result from its passage. But Senators Lodge and Culberson, standing guard over the interests of the two sides of the cham- ber, objected and thus prevented ac- tion, Tfle incident served to emphasize the understanding that no business will be permitted in the senate so long as the conferees are out. WILL NAME HIS SUCCESSOR Von Buelow to Propose Dr. von Beth- mann-Hollweg. Berlin, July 1 .—Prince von Buelow, the retiring imperial chancellor, will formally propose, in his audience with Emperor William, that he be succeed- ed by Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg, sec- retary of the interior and vice chan- cellor, There is reason to believe that his majesty will accept this proposition and that the appointment will be gazetted at once. Prince von Buelow will thus be per- mitted to name his own successor at Emperor William’s request. SAID TO HAVE ENDED LIFE Baron Oskar Rothschild Dies Sud- denly at Vienna. Vienna, July 1 .—Baron Oskar Rothschild, the youngest son of Alhert Rothschild, head of the Austrian branch of the Rothschild house, died suddenly in this city.
