MORE RAIN IMPERATIVE Moisture at This Late Day Would, In Their Opinion, Save Much of the Grain Now Threatened With Destruc- tion—Estimates of the Probable Yield Indicate From Half to Three- quarters of Normal. . Minneapolis, June 30.—Grain men of the Minneapolis chamber of commerce are med at the serious_aspect of the crop situation in the Northwest. The conditions, they say, are becom- ing more serious every day. Since June 10 they have been holding forth nope that in a few days cooler weath- er and rain would save the wheat crop of the Northwest. Tbday, twenty days later, they are still looking forward with a few rays of hope. Little doubt now remains that the crop will be greatly reduced. In some places no wheat whatever can be har- vested and the entire situation is now taken as a calamity. Following are some of the reports of grain men: E. F. Woodworth & Co.; “Estimates of the crop in North Dakota vary all the way from failure in some parts to 50 per cent. South Dakota is estimat- ed all the way from 50 per cent to 75 per cent, and Minnesota from 50 per cent to 75 per cent. It depends upon how soon we have rain and what ef- fect the rain will have on the grain, which, in instances, sulfered trom early frosts. It is veported there are many fields that will not respond to moisture at this late date.” wany Crop Irreparably Damaged. John MeMillan, of the Osborn-Me- Millan Kley sa the crop is irrepars conditions are s doubt whether wheat as people think, as the crop has been irreparably damaged. I do not think North Dakota can reach 50 per cent of a normal crop. South Dakota ought to produce about 50 per cent, and Minnesota about 75 per cent. A good deal of the trouble dates back to hte time of the cold weather and the drouth following it.” Henry Douglas, of the Great West- ern Elevator company: “It’s any- body’s guess at present on the crop. There has been a lot of damage, but it is going a long way to estimate it. It depends largely on whether we get rain in North Dakota. That state has been badly hit and portions of South Dakota nave been hit. But Minnesota is in much better condition.” T. E. Lindahl, representing the Car- gill interests at Duluth, who was on ‘change, "l dow’t want to be pessimistic, bul there is no getting around the fact that conditions are bad. We have still the dangerous part of July to come, when the wheat is in hte milk. One or two hot days then will ihY‘Illl\ everything xight. up.” REFUSES T0 QUIT HIS 10B Kansas Collector of Internal Revenue Asked to Resign. Leavenworth, Kan,, June 30.—James H. Simpson, collector of internal reve- nue, received a telegram from the treasury department at Washington requesting his resignation. Mr. Simpson wired a refusal. He has addressed letters to the internal revenue commissioner, to the secre- tary of the treasury and to the pre: dent, asking on what grounds his resig: nation is asked. Member of Walker Expedition.

GAS EXPLOSION Accldent at Minneapnlls Caused the Death of Five, Minneapolls, June 30.—The coronet of Hennepin county is investigating. the Point saloon explosion, in which five men were killed. The catastrophe was due to the explosion of an acety- lene gas plant and subsequent fire, Coroner Seashore has ordered a searching examination and all details leading to the horror will be thor- oughly investigated. 1f negligence is shown criminal prosecution of who- ever may have been responsible will be instituted. Five persons were Killed and ten persons more or less seriously injured in the explosion and fire. The dead are: CHARLES GIEBENHAIM, aged for- ty-eight, bartender, LOUIS O. HAMISCH, aged twenty- five, painter. EUGENE HAMLIN, seven, teamster. ALBERT HIRTH, aged tweniy-two, Brickton, Minn. JOSEPH SILBAUGH, two, carpenter. Had Been Causing Trouble. Trouble had been experienced with the gas plant since Monday and an ex- pert was on his way to make repairs. He arrived ten minutes after the ex- plosion. Without warning a terrific detona- tion, heard for miles, shocked the neighborhood and hurled the front and one side of the building many feet. The roof held, balanced across the standing walls. Fire started at once, preventing in a large degree success- ful rescue work. All indications point to the fact that none of the five dead was instantly killed, but that, wounded and help- less and pinned beneath the wreckage, they were burned alive. All of the five bodies were removed by rescuers after the arrival of the fire depart- ment. All were badly charred, in sev- eral instances identification being pos- sible only by means of articles found on the bodies. PARTY OF THREE DROWNED Two Naval Cadets and Woman Com- panion Lose Their Lives. Annapolis, Md., June 30.—Just about one mile and a half from the naval academy the bodies of Mrs. Joseph McC. Bowyer, daughter-in-law of Cap- tain J. M. Bowyer, superintendent of the naval academy; Midshipmen Sher- man N. Nelson, Newport, R. I, and Grigsby E. Thomas, Union Poipt, Ga., were found. The trio went sailing in a small boat and it is believed they decided to take a dip in the Severn. The bodies) were found only a few feet from the spot where they had anchored the sail- boat. It is believed the young woman and the two young men were suddenly overcome with cramps and the three were drowned before aid could reach them. ROOSEVELT AND TAFT WILL MEET Arrangements for Confer- ence Proceeding, aged twenty- aged forty- HUGHES MAY BE PRESENT T tpected Questions of Vital Importance in the National Political Field Will Be Disposed of When the Ex-Presi- dent and His “Protege” Get Togeth- er—Senator Lodge Also May Attend Meeting. Beverly, Mass., June 30.—President Taft and former President Roosevelt will meet at Burgess Point within twenty-four hours. While no official announcement of a conferencé has been made it is known that the details are being arranged. Whether Govern- or Hughes, who is at Cambridge for the commencement exercises at Har- vard university, will participate in the meeting is not certain. It is under- stood that Semator Lodge, who is to entertain Colonel Roosevelt at his home in Nahant, will accompany hig guest to Beverly. Moves on the national political chessboard within the next forty-eight hours, it can be stated with some de- gree of authority, may decide: If Theodore Roosevelt is to endorse the present administratipn and sup- port President Taft for a remomina- tion, If Governor Charles E. Hughes Is to surrender his place on the supreme court bench to accept a nomination for a third term at Albany. ‘Whether Theodore Roosevelt is to shake the big stick in the face of an “erring protege” and -again enter the political arena as a candidate for the presidential nomination. ‘Whether Henry Cabot Lodge, in his contest for re-election to the United States senate, in the event of an open breach between the present and recent occupants of the White House, is to cast his political fortunes with Presi- dent Taft or Colonel Roosevelt. Colonel Roosevelt talked with Gov- ernor Hughes over the long distance telephone, but it is a safe wager to say the governor will not participate in a political conference either at Nahant or Beverly. There is a growing beliet in well informed political circles that Governor Hughes has already indicat- ed to Colonel Roosevelt by letter and long distance telephone, that he will not withdraw his acceptatice of the eppointment to the supreme bench, !
