creasing IN this way. but the comforts
are multiplying. Selling has taken
the place Of pasturlng, and the growth
Of mixed crops has supplanted the cul-
tiyation Of one Or two crops on large
scale. The advantages are keeping

CAPTAIN PARKER TALKS.
He Says Dewey Was the Only Man
Qualified to Judge SchIey's Acts.

NEW YORK, Dec H.-Captain Parker, of
Admiral Schley's counsel, reached Perth
Amboy, n. J., at L o'clock this morning.
Until he alighted from the train he had
not heard the result of the court of in
quiry as made public by Secretary Long
When told of the purport of the two re-
ports he said: Until have read the re-
ports in full 1 cannot say more than this.
Admiral Dewey knows what was right. He.
better than any one else in the world, was
qualified to judge this case. He is the one
man living besides Admiral Schley, who
conducted a campaign and fought a battle
with modern ships under modern condi-
tions. He probably found there was a diff
ference between theory and practice, and
judged Schley in the light of his own eX-
perience The other two members of the
court were high-minded men of the high
est character and men who would not mis-
judge knowingly or willingly. They never
had the experience the admiral had and
probably did not see things in the same
to the judgment of the people Of the coun-
the findings of Admiral Dewey will be sus-
tanned. Until | have read the report In de-
tail l cannot say more than generality.
1 cannot talk on the report count for
count"
Captain Parker seemed almost as much
pleased that Admiral Dewey had sustained
Rear Admiral Schley as If the court had
been unanimous in the verdict that he
Dewey rendered.

HEAVY OVERCOATS AND EAR MUFFS
WILL BE NEEDED TODAY.
The Storm Area includes Many
Western States-COnditiOns
in General.

After s o'clock yesterday afternoon In
dianapolis began TO feel the effects of the
cold wave which was predicted several
days ago. The maximum temperature dur
ing the day was 80 degrees. At Z o'clock
the mercury registered SO degrees and at
9 o'clock 16 degrees. with a prospect of
going to zero within a few hours. The
storm area extends over the West, and in
most places there was either rain snow.
In the matter of rainfall Indianapolis yes
terday stood third with 1-S7 inches At
Little Rock, Ark, "a inches fell. Cairo,
Ill, was second with 2.2s inches. The wind
from the south averaged thirty-eight miles
an hour. The storm area is moving slow
ly eastward. The lowest temperature re
ported to the Weather Bureau was at Bis
marck, n. D., where it was 20 degrees be-
low zero. North Platte Neb., reported 10
degrees below. At Davenport, Ia, ii was
degrees below zero and at Dubuque the
mercury stood at AS far south as
Concordla, KAN, the registration was zero.
The bureau states it will continue 10 grow
coIuer for several days.
AT the weather bureau it was announced
that the heavy rain which fell all day yes
terday and up until late hour last night
would turn TO sleet and snow and that there
would be marked fall in the temperature.
The prediction was made good about II
o'clock last night, when the steady rain
changed 10 a biting sleet and wet snow.
The duration of the cold spell cannot be de-
termined definitely, but at the weather bu-
reau the statement was made that it would
probably endure for a week at least. The
cold is coming south from Lake Superior
and extends to Texas, and there is prob
ability OF zero weather in this vicinity for
several days TO come. The weather bureau
yesterday notified freight companies, fac
tories, gas companies heating companies
and all institutions whose business might
be affected by decided change in the tenn
perature of the coming frigtdity. Last
night was one of the worst nights to be out
in for many months. In the earlier hours
the pedestrian was drenched; later his face
was stung with mixture of sleet and
snow. The Western Union reported its
wires in bad condition.
