Times - Murder Committed
Over a Straying Cow.

Springfield. Ills, June 20.-The
| weather bureau yesterday issued the
| crop report for Illinois for the past
| week. 1t is as follows: There has been
| much rain over the greater portion of
| the state during the week, and in
| southern and parts of the central dis
trict it has been so heavy as to greatly
interfere with farming operations. In
| many places vegetation has suffered
from excessive rains. In the northern
districts there have generally been good
rains, but not heavy enough to inter-
fere with farm work. Many correspond
entS say rain is needed.
Hay Condition Has Improved.
The weather has generally been
cool, especially in the northern portion.
The condition OF the hay crop seems
generally to have improved during the
week, although in many places il is still
thin and short. Opinion is that hay will
be fair crop. This is especially true
of the southern district. Considerable
progress has been made in the harvest
ing of clover, but rain in the central
and southern districts has interfered
with this work. Pastures are generally
in fine condition.
Outlook for Wheat and Corn.
Wheat has continued to improve
slightly. There has. however. been
some damage in the southern district
by wheat lodging on account of heavy
rains. Harvesting has begun, but
rainy weather has delayed it consid
erably. The week has not been favor
able for corn. 1t has been 100 cold.
especially in the northern district. and
too wet in the southern and parts of
the central district. Weeds are getting
Il good start. The condition of corn.
however. is still generally good. The
prospects FOR large crop OF oats con-
tinue good.
Potatoes and Fruit.
Potatoes promise good crop, but in
some places the condition has de-
Perforated slightly. The small fruits all
seem to be doing we'll. but apples are
dropping badly, and peaches to some
extent. However. prospects continue
to average well.

Taku, have since massacred all the

Two Ministers Reported Killed. ~
A modified version OF these rumorS
received at Berlin Is that the French as
we'll as the German minister has been
killed. The Englishc at Shanghai
think that the Chinese had foreign al.
vice in organizing the defenseS at
Taku, because of the precision with
which their attack was delivered. The
wires connecting with the harbor mines
were cut by the boats OF the warships
the night before the bombardment. 1t
is reported that no fewer than 700 Chi
