KANSAS CROPS.
The Yield of Wheat Il Light, but Corn


The Yield OF Wheat Il Light, but Corn Il
Growing Rapidly.
TOPEKA, Kan, June 81 The bulletin
Of the Kansas service for the week
snded the cath says: In the eastern
division wheat harvest is about over
except in the northern counties, where
il is in progress. The yield is general.
ly light Threshing has commenced in
the southern counties. Corn is grow
ing rapidly and is in excellent condi-
ton. Oats harvest is progressing in
the southern counties; the yield will
be faiz, being better than was ex-
pected. Pastures and meadows are
much improved and gardens in good
condition.
In the middle division wheat harvest
is general except in the southern coun-
ties, where it is over. The light wheat
crop has been injured by chinch bugs
and also by weeds, which had come up
since the rains. Corn is growing fine
y and is in splendid condition except
in localities where chinch bugs have
begun to work on it. Oats are in fair
condition. Prairie hay promises a big
crop in northern counties Rain is
generally needed; pastures good.
In the western division it has been a
growing week for all crops. Wheat
aas improved considerably where not
injured by weeds. Corn, barley, oats
and broom corn are doing well. Pas
lures are in excellent condition.

EARN PRODUCTS.
Wool clip short-The Movement of whea
and Corn.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 2.-The ir-
regular upward movement of the gen.
eral range of prices, which has been in
sign of ceasing. and there is no reason
to believe that it will not continue
with natural reactions for many
months to come. Wool, the last of the
great staple products to feel the up
ward impulse, has now been reached.
Extraordinarily large sales were made
last week and the price has advanced
/ to . cents. Investigation into the
supply for the year leads to the con-
clusion that the clip in this country
will be reduced 20 per cent.
A good many influences will be at
work to cause a light early movement
of winter wheat. There is less reason
this year to doubt official estimates
than there has been during the past
three years. The government figures,
indicating a winter wheat crop $4,000
900 bushels less than last year, are
probably right. Then the scarcity of
old wheat will cause country millers
to buy more freely of the first new
wheat than they usually do. 1t is
difficult to see how there can be much
of movement out of a $4,000, 900
bushel crop in Kansas when the
states requirements for bread and
seed are nearly 10000, 900 bushels. and
the Kansas mills ordinarily grind TO-
DOG, 900 to $1,000, 900 bushels more for
trade outside of the state. 1t may be,
though, that enough farmers will be
forced to sell to cause a considerable
movement for month or two.
The splendid progress of the corn
crop has been too much for the corn
market, Notwithstanding the very
small receipts. The total receipts at
three western markets last week were
less than the weeks exports from At
lantic ports. The movement has
dropped to very small proportions.
Doubtless Illinois farmers are holding
back their corn because of the dry
weather in that state, and the move
ment may become small enough to
frighten those shorts who have been
selling on account of the fine crop pros

ELECTRlCISEp.
DR.. Buchanan, the Wife Murderer, Dies in
the Fatal Chair.


SING SING, n. Y, July 2.-Mrs. Bu-
chanan. first and also third wife of DR..
Robert w. Buchanan, the condemned
wife murderer, went to Poughkeepsie
last night to make a last appeal for her
husband. At 6 o'clock yesterday morn
ing she went to Rhinecliff, Gov. Morton's
home, and, securing entrance to his
private Office. sank on her knees before
the governor and pleaded for her hus-
bands life, though her grief almost
prevented her from speaking. Gov.
Morton was plainly overcome by the
woman's pleading and tears. and tears
stood in his eyes as he lifted her to her
feet and told her that he could not
grant her request.
News of this refusal to interfere
further was at once telegraphed here
and Warden Sage decided that nothing
was left to him but to carry out the
laws sentence, the encouragement
having also decided that it would be
right to proceed. Preparations were
at once made for carrying out the
death sentence.
1t was 11:14 when the witnesses were
called to the death chamber. All was
then ready and Electrician Davis was
at the switchboard. Close by in the
death cell was the convict who was to
pay the penalty.
When the party were seated the cleo
trician sent the current through the
lights on the chair. There were 1,740
volts on the bank and when they were
switched off again the warden and two
guards appeared at the door with DIR.
Buchanan. He walked in without
word and took his seat.
In about thirty seconds Buchanan
was strapped. Then the current was
turned on and in forty seconds he was
pronounced dead. The voltage of 1, 74O
was kept on for four seconds and then
reduced to forty volts, which was kept
on for thirty seconds more. 1t was
the quickest and most successful elec-
tricision ever known at the prison.
