AMERICAN FORCE 70 STAY LONGER Merchants Ask Protection of United States Troops, Fear- ing Attacks By Villa and His Bandis. OITE THREATS OF DEATH Outlaw Had Said He Would Kill Residents and Burn Their Homes. REPORT BRIDGE DESTROYED foreign refugee to leave Chihuahua City since the siege began arrived here tonight. He reported that Vilta and Julio Acosta were in control of most of the city when he made his escape by automobile at 2 a. m. this morning. Owing to the fact that he had been in close hiding, he explained that he had no means of knowing first hand just what had happened or even the whereabouts of General Tre- vino. Carranza forces were holding hard to their part of the city, according to the refugee, who added that he understood that all the foreigners were safe, at least to tif extent of leaving the area through'which Villa fought his way. Juarez, Mexico, Nov. 29.—Mexican merchants who reached here Monday night from San .Buenaventura and Namiquipa reported that petitions were being circulated in the towns and settlements in the vit':ini(y' of the main expeditionary force’s headquar- ters and outposts, asking the nited States government not to withdraw the American troops at this time. They claim Villa_had made threats against all who lived in Namiquipa, Guerrero, San Buenaventura, Casas Grandes, Colonia Dublan, Colonia Juarez and the other towns in west- ern Chihuahua, saying he would kill all residents of these towns and burn their homes because they had aided the Americans. a d A report was in circulation here 3 that a bridge had been burned be- 3 tween Santa Sofia and Guzman, on i the Mexico Northwestern railroad, ki but officials of the company said they had no confirmation of the report, as the military authorities were in con- trol of their only telegraph line. If.a bridge has been burned ou this road it. will. prevent\ General Persh- ing from receiving supplies for his column by rail. Officials here late today said Gen- eral Carlos Ozupa, whe had a prom- inent part in 'the Chihuahua City fighting, was now at Sauz, north of the state capital, and was organizing forces to return to Chihuahua City. Later, Carranza officials at"headquar- tetrs announced that General Ozuna had started south with his reorgan- ized column, The presence of General Ozuna's force in Sauz was considered further ‘indication that Trevino's forces had left.

MOISTURE CONTENT IS LOW The corn in Nebraska and all over the corn belt which contributes to the Omaha market is so uniformly good and hard this year that the new fed- eral standard of grading to go into effect December 1 will have practi- cally no effect here. If there is any effect, it will be to throw the corn that is received ngre largely into the No. 1 grade. “The moisture content of the corn coming in here this year,” said Chief Inspector George B. Powell of the Omaha Grain exchange, “is so low this year that there will be no notice- able effect. The mgis(urc content at this time of year ordinarily is from 19 to 30 per cent. This' year, how- ever, the* moisture content right now runs only from 15 to 1814 per cent. This is excellent hard corn.” New Federal Standards. New federal standards of grading grain, however, are to be established for all grains before long. \«\‘hfle the grades for corn are now definitely established, \the scale of grades for small grain ]ms not yet been decided upon. It is likely that a standard of moisture content will be fixed for wheat also, which will be a new fea- ture in wheat inspection. The United States Department of Agricultyre has been working on a scale for small grains for a long time, and the tentative scale of grades this department is working out is to be released about December ‘4. This does not mean that it will go into ef+ fect then. The tentative scale will merely be made public, and be open for criticism from grain men all over the United States. Meetings of grain nen will then be held at Omaha, Kansas City and other leading mar- kets, where the proposed grades will be discussed and criticized. The De- partment of Agriculture invites criti cism and suggestions as to the im- provement of the scale it will pro- pose. To Receive Suggestions. After thorough discussions are held throughout the country, and after the government has receivel the sugges- tiong” of the grain men all over the country, the federal department will again take up the question and per- haps revise the scale in accordance with the best crop of suggestions re- ceived. It will thefrgive a ninety-day notice before promulgating the new scale of grades definitely, The scale will probably not actually go into ef- fect tefore June 1, 1917, Thelocal office of the inspector will have to *p: fitted up with certain ap- paratus for testing the grains in ac- cordance with the rules. Standard apparatus will then be used all over the United States for this testing. For Interstate Use. The new standard of grades on all grain, however, applies only to inter- state traffic of grain. Only a small percentage of the grain received in Omaha come from without the state. This does not lessen the work of in- spection here, however, as all incom- ing grains will have to be inspected with the utmost care, in order to pro- tect the local dealers on grain they will ship out of the state, where it will have to stand the federal test. Thus, while only a small percentage of the grain here comes from outside the state, a very great percentage of it goes out of the state after it is handled here.

The box was between two seats of the roadster and had a cushion covering it. The cushion was jammed tightly into place, the sheriff said., The jurors examined closely cuts in the coat and shirt that Teiper wore on the night of the tragedy. Sheriff Stengel said that Teiper had called his | attention to these on the day after! the murder. “That fellow must have | had a knife,” said Teiper, pointing to the cuts. i | Nothing on Arm. There was 1o scratch or bruise on Teiper's arm on the morning after the murder, the sheriff ‘testified. Sheriff Stengel said District Attor- ney Dudley showed Teiper the re- volver which had been found in a field near the murder scene. Teiper said that it was not his. Mr. Dudley | telephoned to a merchant in Orchard | Park and asked if he hdd sold a re-| volver to Teiper. He repeated the man’s answer that the revolver had been sold on January 21 or 22, about | a week before the murder. Teiper then called the district attorney from | the telephone and acknowledged that ! the revolver was h fied. “Why did you say it was ot then?” Mr. Dudley asked.

MERE MILLIONS IN CROPS By A. R. GROH. ‘T'hanksgiving day! O, friends, wot 8 mockery! Wot a hollow mockery! What have we to be thankful for, when we look about us and see many families in this great state of Nebras- ka who haven't even got an automo- bile? Some are struggling along withs out a piano, Yies, my friends, and the charitable associations know of cases where there are destitute famili without even a talking machine! These are facts that myst be looked squarely in the face. Our-soil this year prodiced 183, 300, © hushels of corn, worth $128,- 320,0uu, a mere bagatelle of $107 for cach man, woman and child in the state. The other crops were worth about $183,000,000, or $153 for cach person in the state. A Nearly a Billion, In agriculture, live stock, dairy, fruit and mahufactures the state pro- duced this year $850,000,000, which would be a mere $708 for each man, woman and child, It calls to our despairing minds the beautiful words of the poic: “Nothing to eat but foogd ! Nothing to breathe but air, Nothing to wear but clothes To keep us from going bare, “Nothing to spend but ¢ash, othing, alas, alack! Nowhera to go, but out, Nowhere to come but back." Two Head Apiece: As far as our beef supply is con- cerned, only 2,443,000 cattle stand be- tween us and starvation, This is only about two head of cattle for each| man, woman and child, There are| only about one and one-fourth hogs| in the state for each man, woman and child and only about ten chickens for ach man, woman and child, In the state and national banks of Nebraska the people have on deposit but $300,000,000, or about $250 for each person. Of course, this doesn’t include savings banks and building and loan associations. Proofs of Poverty. Nebraska's egg crop this year wasn't worth much more than all the | gold and silver mined in Colorado | and California, Nebraska’s agricultural and live stock production this year was worth only a little more than all the coal mined and used in the entire nation in the year, ' All the products of Nebraska's soil for the year could be carried on a train less than 13,000 miles long.
