CORN CUT ONE-THIRD.
The Worlds Reports Indicate n Crop
of About 1,3OO, OOO,OOO Bushels.

The biggest crop raised by a single coun-
try Is Indian corn, and the United States
Is the country that raises it,
In good year the United States pro-
duces 2,OOoOOO.OOO bushels of this staple,
and has produced more. At the average
market price these 2,V00,000000 bushels
are worth $lWO,OOO,OUO, or about ten
times as much as the gold production OF
the whole world for a year. 1t would pay
the entire public debt Of the United States.
But this year the corn crop is short, says
today's New York World. A severe
drought has greatly reduced the yield. Just
how much Is what many people would be
very glad to know. and the World there
fore prints today reports from nearly 800
correspondents scattered throughout the
corn region.
These reports cover the states of Ohio.
Indiana, Illinois. Kentucky. Michigan. Wis
consin, Minnesota. Iowa, Missouri, Kansas,
Nebraska and South Dakota.
TneSe twelve states include the great
corn belt of the United States, and in an
average year produce about 70 per cent
Of the crop.
The government report makes the yield
this year 1.1OO.OOO.OOO bushels. but most
all OF the corn authorities say this Is too
low, and the Worlds exhaustive reports
Indicate that the latter are right
II one Will study these reports carefully
he Will see that they indicate about two
thirds of an average CROP or in the neigh
borhoOd of 800 WU,OOO bushels
The greatest reduction has been in the
states west of the Mississippi and there
the loss has been heavy.
Kansas, which raises more than 80 600
900 bushels of corn in a good year, reports
only 42,OUO.OOO bushels. But the states ca st
of the Mississippi. where rain is a more
certain quantity, pull up the average.

DIR. ELY INDICATED.
The Committee of Investigation Finds
the Charges Daseless.

The report Of the committee appointed
TO investigate the charges of economic here
sizes against Dr. Richard T. Ely Of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin was submitted to the
full board of university regents yester-
day, signed by the full committee.
In closing the report says: I'VE regret
that our appointment for such an investi-
cation should have been considered neces-
sary, but we entered upon it with the sole
desire to ascertain the truth in regard to
the charges preferred. We are pleased to
say that the result is a complete vindica-
ton of DR.. Ely and the teachings and prac-
tice Of our university
The report states that without doubt
some things were written by the professor
and the students not only on social econo-
mics but other subjects with which many
good people could not agree but the COM
mittes is mindful Of the fact that many
universally accepted doctrines of today
were but a short time ago denounced as
visionary, impracticable and pernicious.
Inc committee state that they cannot
for moment recommend the dismissal Of
the teacher. even IL some of his opinions
should in some quarters be regarded as
visionary. Such course would be equiva-
lent to saying no professor should teach
anything which is not accepted by every
as true. They say they would feel themselves
did not believe in progress in all depart
ments of knowledge. They believe the
great University of Wisconsin should ever
encourage that continual and fearless sift-
ing and winnowing by which alone truth
can be found.

How the clubs stand.
AFTER YOUNG BLOOD.
COmiskey Has Been ON an Expedition
for Minor League Players

BaltimOres success has encouraged the
craze for young blood and the minor league
has been drag-netted for promising mater
ial for the National Base Ball League. In
selecting prominent minor league players
managers should steer clear of those play
ers who have already been tried in the big
league and found wanting. Players like
Denny, John Irwin, Genins and others
played out in the league but stood high In
minor leagues. This indicates that the
minor league standard is much lower than
that Of the big league. The Washington
MANI cement this year made the mistake Of
supposing that men who stood well in a
minor league would do well in the big
league.
Capt. COmiskey of Cincinnati Is the latest
to be affected with the new blood craze
Comiskey has returned from his expedition
after new players for the Cincinnati team
with quite string of Western League
men on whom he has secured an option.
They are Miller and Mcfarland Of Toledo,
Phillips Of Indianapolis, Cunningham
Stuart and Hogriever of Sioux City. The
Cincinnati club is trying to negotiate a deal
with Philadelphia to secure either Turner
or thompson. presumably for a money con-
sideration. In an interview yesterday CO.
miskey said: What the Cincinnati club
needs is pitchers. True. the Western
League is weakest in the pitchers box, but
mas, nevertheless, few strong twirlers,
several OF whom will probably be seen in
cincinnati next spring. Every team in the
year"
1t is understood that Comiskey has been
re-engaged to manage the Reds next year.
He believes that the twelve-club league
Will remain unbroken, and intends that Gin
race.

Odd Phases of SunstrOke.

From the Philadelphia Record.
"a peculiar phase of sunstroke," said one
of Phladelphias most eminent physicians
yesterday, lis that subject does not sue
cumb to the attack till some hours
after it occurs. The only explanation that
medical science can give is that sunstroke
consists in a disintegration of the blood
corpuscles, and considerable time elapsas
before the disintegrated blood reaches the
little nerve center in the brain, which acts
as a governor on the heat system of the
body. The flow of the blood finally para
riot, raising the temperature of the body
to a fearful height within few minutes"
AS an instance of heat prostrations, the
doctor cited the statistics of the British
army in India, where the great majority of
sunstrokes take effect between and 8
o'clock in the evening.

The Chinese Statesman Deprived OF
Another Decoration.

Another Decoration.
From the New York Sun.
Ii Hung Chang has lost his most coveted
This order, Of which the famous old soldier
and statesman has just been deprived, Is
one Of the highest that the throne can con-
fer and is only given in cases when signal
military or diplomatic service has been rem
dered the state, and seldom or never is
the recipient of lower rank than a prince.
Ii received his some years ago, and priced
1t more highly than any other order that
the Son of Heaven could ever have deco
rated him with.
The feather itself is of curious shape and
most brilliant shades, and Is worn sloping
from the jade button that Is fixed into the
crown of the official hat, and instead of
being erected high in midair, after the
fashion of the bird from which Ii came, 1t
hangs down the wearers back rather like
an emblem of detection than of naughty
pride. The main cause of the viceroy's
disgrace Is said to have been the reverseS
which have overtaken the Chinese forces in
Corea, and the instrument with which his
downfall has been accomplished the in
trigues of Sheng Taotai.
This man is director general Of the great
Chinese steamship line known as the China
Merchants Company, and through his
wealth and social connections has establish
ed a good footing within the sacred circles
of the throne He is a born diplomat and
is as treacherous as he is able. He figured
prominently in the negotiations recently
carried on at Tien-Tsin between the Chi
Eese government and the foreign telegraph
companies, and was known in that matter
to have acted directly opposite to the ex-
pressed wishes of Ii.
