National Labor Bureau Investigating the

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2l.-The bureau of
labor has recently undertaken an inde-
pendent Investigation in field of inquiry
which it has not before entered. Tho
work OF American seamen in the mer-
chant service is the subject to which the
officials Of the bureau are devoting q
part Of their attention during the present
season. Agents have been stationed at
five different ports Of ths country-New
York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore
and San TRANSFORMATIONS business it is
to investigate the conditions of the life
and service of the common sailors EN-.
piOyed in the merchant shipping carried
on under the United States flag.
The terms upon which seamen are en-.
ployed, the wages paid them, the treat
ment accorded them at sea, and Incl.
dentally the rations and accommodations
furnished on ship-board arc being investi.
gated. Particular attention is being
paid to the contracts made with seamen
and to the custom which largely prevails
among ship captains of engaging the Ser.
vices of mlddlemen to enlist their crews.

Trial Race.
NEW YORK, Aug 2l.-The first formal
trial race between the Defender and the
Vigilant to give the Americas cup COM
mittee an opportunity to decide which
boat should be named to defend the cup,
was held outside of Sandy Hook in the
same waters that the cup race will take
place in. but ended very unsatisfactory.
The boats raced not only to give the com.
Inittee line on them. but also for n cup
that John Jacob Astor offered to the
winner OF the majority of the races that
the committee should order.
The Defender, as usual, got ahead in
the beat to wirdward, and on the first
round of the ten miles to windward and
return she was five minutes ahead OF the
Vigilant. The wind at this time was a
twenty-knot breeze, and the committee
was hoping to see what the Defender
would do in such wind when she
dropped the race and ''iit OUT for her
moorings. The report is that the twenty
knot breeze loosened up her rigging to
such an extent that she was afraid to
stand it any longer. She has never been
seen in a good wind. The Vigilant was
given tho race.

ANOTHER HORROR At CUMMING.
FriShtful Story Of She Management - o

FriShtful story OF she Management - o
Chicago Insane Asylum.
CHICAGO, Aug. 21.-The investigation of
the county commissioners into tho man
agoment Of the Cunning insane asylum
began yesterday. Thirty thousand words
Of testimony were taken at the first sit
ting. Toward the end of the days sit
ting came horrible story that in detail
is more barbarous than the story Of the
Puck murder. 1t was told by DR.. Nc
Grew, resident physician at Cunning as
ylum. 1t concerned a battle between
two madmen VINO had fought in the cor.
ridor Of ward ., while Anderson, acces.
sorry to the murder of Puck, was on
watch. These two patients quarreled over
some silly, childish differences.
They came to blows. They tore at
each others faces and rolled about the
floor, while Anderson looked on. One of
them in the frenzy of raving mania set
his teeth into the face of the other. He
bit off his nose and spat it out on the
floor of the corridor. The other maniac
sprang away from the death grip, fell
bleeding and screaming to the floor, saw
the flesh torn from his own face, stuffed
1t into his mouth. chewed his own nose
to a pulp and swallowed it. He said
that would make it grow again-and An.
derson looked on.
This was the sworn testimony Of DR.
McGrew, resident physician at Dunning
asylum. While it was being given the
commissioners turned sick and pale. At
the end Of the story somebody whispered
to President Healy, of the commission ers,
You said there was nothing to investi.
gate"
Healy looked up, his face pale and his
eyes full OF the horror Of the story he had
just heard. God forgive me-" he said
Il did. But did not know-I did not
know these things"

tured the fast eastbound overland flyer
about midnight. The engine was cut of
and sent forward in the regul alton Jesse
James order while the outlaws looted the
train at their pleasure. No particulars as
to the amount obtained are obtainable.
The train held up was No. 8. 1t left
North Platte at II o'clock and tho rob-
berry occurred an hour later.
The country in the vicinity is fairly
we'll settled and the authorities antici
pate no trouble in following the outlaws.
All were heavily armed and a conflict is
quite probable, for while the robbers were
blowing up the express car the fireman
ran off with the engine to Gothenburg
for assistance, and a ctrong posse was
sent out,

Crop Prospects in the Hawkeys state.

DIES MONIES, Aug. 2.-The weather.
crop bul!e tin for the past week says: The
temperature Of the past week was above
the seasonable average, and it was gen.
orally dry. The rainfall was in form OF
light local showers, covering a small area
OF the state. Reports from the cornfields
are unusually variable, being largely col
ored by local conditions as to rainfall and
condition of the soil. With timely rains
to develop the late planting this state
will probably produce fair average crop
of corn. If the weather remains dry and
hot. pushing the crop too rapidly to ma
turity, the quantity and quality will be
reduced considerably below the normal

CHICAGO, Aug. 2L-The state weather

The past week has been without rain, ex.
cept very light thunderstorms on Thurs
day and Sunday in the eastern and south.
western counties of the central section.
The fall was SO light that no relief was
had from the general dryness prevailing
throughout the state. The heat was ex-

average temperature of the week to be
about degrees only above the normal
temperature. Drought conditions prevail
in all northern and most central section
counties. Pastures are drying up. and
corn has been somewhat injured; the
central and southern counties have vast
numbers Of chinch bugs to aid the dry
ness.
Second-crop clover, now being cut, is
proving good in all southern counties, but
decreases in yield and results as one pro.
crosses northward. Flowing is pro-
