The Bureau Of American Republics

tion in regard to the industrial de-
velopment of Chill, which has been
choked by the civil war in that
country. AT Santiago and Tome,
in addition to cloth manufactures,
which turn out goods of superior
quality, there are establishments for
the production of beer, earthenware,
pottery, candles, paper and bottles
as well sugar refneries and saw

The milling industry: is one of
the most important in the country,
the number of mills being estimated
at $50. Since the beginning oflast

Freight Train Robbed.
By The United Press.

KANSAS CRY, Mo-, Aug. 21.-
Freight train No. 13 on the Kan
sas City, St. Joseph and Council
Bluffs road was held up and robbed
at Murray's switch and just out
side of Harlem, at 2 a. m. yesterday
morning. H. I. Cassel conductor,
started to ring up the watch tower
at Harlem when he was held up by
two masked men with revolvers.
The robbers then took Cassel's
watch and told him to signal the
tower to learn if the track was
clear. The, rear brakeman, Ed.
White, was ordered to get off by
one of the outlaws. The two men
accompanied Cassel to the way car
when they again commanded White
get of. AS he stepped toward the
ladder the revolver of one of the
robbers was discharged. White
dropped dead, the ball having en-
tered his lett temple. Conductor
Cassel signalled the engineer, and
got into the way car as soon as he
could, the train started and the
two robbers climbed on to the
top Of the way car, Then they
climbed down the side of the ca:
and ran into thicket. The engi
neer and forward brakeman were
not informed of the robbery unit
the train reached Harlem.

THE WHEAT EXCITEMENT.
Than Eyer If Prices Do
Not Advance.
(By United Press.

, New York, Aug. PR. G.
Dun & Co. in their Weekly Review
Of trade viii say: During the past
week attention has been absorbed
by great excitement in grain.
Russian orders prohibiting exports
of rye were taken as official con-
firmation of the worst reports
regarding the harvest in that coun-
try, and were supported by further
reports that similar defensive action
would be"faken by other govern
ments. There is little room to
doubt that foreign demand will be
greater than ever if prices here are
not so advanced as to check it. The
general business of the country does
well with gradual improvement in
nearly eleven branches, based on
actual increase of demand from
farming States. 1t may be doubted
whether there has ever been a more
cautious and cOnservativ feeling
prevalent at time when the pros
pect of large trade was bright, and
in scarcely any branch is there
seen disposition to venture upon
large speculative purchases. At the
South business is still dull, though
some Improvement is seen at New
Orleans and at Atlanta. Money is
tight at many Southern points, and
collections somewhat slow. The
business failures occurring throue III
out the country during the last days
number, for the United States 1919
and for Canada II, or a total of
ZIG as compared with a total of
, 227 last week and 131 the week
previous to the last. For the cor
responding week of last year the
figures were 1872, representing 172
: failures in the United States and 20
in the Dominion of Canada.
