ANuLO-RUSSlAN CLASH.

Hostile Act of Cossacks at Hankow AT
Once Resented by Britons.
SHANGHAI, Aug. 2S.-As the outcome
of dispute regarding the ownership OF
some lands at Hankow, on the Yang Use
Kiang, about 700 miles from the sea,
which were purchased in 1863 by the
concern of Jardine, Matheson & Co.,
but were subsequently included in the
new concessions to Russia, the owners
under the advice and protection of Mr.
Hurst, the British consul, sent work
men to fence in the tract.
After the work was begun dozen
Cossacks from the Russian consulate
appeared on the scene and forcibly
elected the workmen.
The captain Of the British gunboat
Woodlark, specially designed for rive,
service, after consulting with Mr. Hurst
landed party of bluejackets and
moved the Woodlark within firing dis
lance Of the Russian consulate.
For a time a fight seemed imminent
but nothing further occurred. The
bluejackets are now guarding the prop
erty.

Harvesting Spring Wheat with

The great rapidity with which wheat
can now be harvested by means Of i'm
proved self binders has lessened the i'm
portance Of the header. However, it is
still used quite extensively in the spring
wheat growing regions of the north
west and has its advantages A wide
swath is cut, and where a number Of
machines are used in the same field an
immense amount of grain can be taken
care of. The horses push the machine
in front Ct them. Only enough of the
straw is taken off to get all the heads.
The grain is run directly into tight
wagon boxes especially made for the
purpose. It Is hauled Immediately to
the stack and there remains until
thrashing time.
"Where the grain has been allowed
to get very ripe there is much less loss
from SCATTERING when the header is
used for cutting. The grain is not han
died SO often and the tight boxes catch
all the berries that fall out between the
field and the stack. On the other hand,
it is difficult task to handle headed
grain, beth in getting it on the stack
and from the stack to the machine. The
short, stiff straws refuse to hold togeth.
er, and it is almost impossible to get
forkful. The grain is usually of bet
ter color than when put into shocks,
for there being but little of it exposed

header is discarded, possibly never, .

CHOYNSKl DEFEATS RYAN.
Awarded the Decision Over the Austria
liam In q TWENTY Round Go

Awarded the Decision Over the Austria
liam In Twenty Round Go.
DUBUQUE, Aug. 30.-Joe Choynski
was given the decision over Australian
Jimmy Ryan at the end of a 20-round
go here last night for the light heavy
weight championship of the world.
Choynski demonstrated great clever
ness throughout. Ryan stood Joe's con-
tinual left jabbing in the face well and
showed little signs of punishment at
the end Of the bout. The decision was
strictly on points. Choynski weighed
close to 1853 pounds. while his oppo-
nent was matter Of six pounds lighter.
In the opening bout between Clar-
ence Forbes and Con Suffield for the
lightweight championship of the west,
Suffield was knocked out in the 18th.
Forbes started to force the fight in the
10th and before the 18th was half over
he had Sutfield at his mercy. A neat
right swing on the jaw did the bust
ness. Suffield rolled under the ropes
and was counted out.

DE FREYcINET ON STAND.
Former Minister Of War Gives Testimony
III the UreYfus Trial.

Former Minister Of War Gives Testimony
in the Dreyfus Trial.
RENNES, Aug 30.-Neither side was
pleased with the outcome of yesterday Is
proceedings before the court-martial
trying Captain Dreyfus. The Dreyfus
ards expected that Colonel Cordier, who
was deputy chief of the intelligence de.
partment under the late Lieutenant
Colonel Henry, would testify that the
bordereau was received directly by the
late Colonel Sandherr. Colonel Cor.
der, however, testified that he was alb
sent from the intelligence department
when the bordereau arrived. but he be.
lieved it was received by Henry. Nat.
urally this statement elated the anti
Dreyfusards, but they had no good rea-
| son to congratulate themselves on the
remainder of Cordier's testimony as it
was wholly i'll favor of Dreyfus
On the other hand, the procession of
generals and officers of the general
staff who demanded an opportunity to
confront Colonel Cordier, was good
piece of tactics from the point of view
OF the anti-Dreyfusards, because all the
points they contested We're not of the
first Importance, yet their very appear
ance on the stage and the contradictions
OF some of Cordier's statements left a
dlsagreeable impression.
The appearance of General MERCER to
question Cordier came as surprise to
many in the audience. His action is in
terpreted as intended to show that he is
not going to throw up the sponge. The
part he played i'll 1894 lays him open to
arrest, and this is constant source of
discussion at the cafes in Rennes. 1t
appears however to be a good reason
why the government will not take any
such serious step until the case is over
Yesterdays attendance was the larg-
est since the opening Of the trial
Everybody was on the qui vive to hear
the testimony of Charles de Freycinet,
former minister of war. This adroit
politician, "the white mouse" of French
politics, sat upon the fence as we'll as
he could. His expression of a fear That
the Dreyfus agitation would injure the
discipline of the army greatly annoyed
the Dreyfusards, as calculated to infu-
ence the judges against the accused.
But he followed it with a eulogy Of the
pioneer of the Dreyfus campaign, M.
Scheurer-Kestner, whom he said he
held in the highest esteem.
M. Labor then secured another con-
cession favorable to Dreyfus by getting
M. de Freyciuet to admit that he could
not recall a single fact going to prove
that money had been sent into France
from abroad to promote campaign in
favor of Dreyfus

Barley Hay the Best of All.


For grain hay we believe barley is
the best OF all, says the Denver Field
and Farm. 1t grows as rapidly as oats
OF wheat and if properly managed may
be made to yield two crops from one
seeding. To do this the first cutting
should be done in July, when it has
headed out and the grains are begin
ming to fill. Use a mower for cutting,
and about "a hours later take fork
and turn the rows over. The following
day in the afternoon the hay should be
cured sufficiently to be ral1ed into wind
rows and hauled from the field. I'm
mediately after hauling off turn the
water over the field, giving it an ordi-
nary course of irrigation. This will
cause a new growth to put out from
the crowns, and second irrigation will
probably be necessary to cause the
length Of growth desired. The second
crop can be allowed to stand week or
two longer than the first, and let the
grain become half ripe before cutting.
The last cutting will not be so hard
to cure as the first. In regard to the
first cutting we will state that the two
days drying may not cure it sufficient
ly, and in that case it will be we'll to
spread it after hauling or else put it in
small shocks for awhile until we'll
cured before stacking. The object in
removing the first cutting from the
field as soon as it will do to handle is
that it is generally necessary to irri-
gate the field before the second crop
will start. The four rowed variety Of
barley is best for hay when it is the
purpose to grow two crops in season.
