Corn weather is another name for
the sizzling variety that has visited
this vicinity of late. While the
warmth is too great for comfort it is
ideal for the corn which has just
sprouted about the country, and under
the hot sun the tender green shoots
are fast rounding into the semblance
of stalks. For this part of the season
corn is we'll advanced, and all indica-
tions point to great crop unless
something unforeseen occurs.
Tobacco, too, profits by warm
weather with occasional dashes OF
rain, and the many farmers who are
putting in their crop at present look
for quick growth and a final good
supply of the weed. The crop about
Fitchburg was entirely destroyed by
a heavy hail storm last Sunday, and
although it has been replanted in,
every instance the farmers are afraid
1t is too late. Corn and oats in that
vicinity were also laid to the ground.
but these more hardy grains are ex-
pected to turn out all right The
storm did not materially damage
crops in other parts fthe county.
Hay seems to vary in the different
localities. About Verona the growth
is reported light and thin, but from
other places the supply is said to be-
practically unlimited, with low prices
a certainty
Oats are doing well, despite the set
back by Sundays storm, and it is ex-
pected that the crop will be heavy for
the most part, although the cool
weather some time ago held back
both oats and corn in some places.
The present growing weather, how
ever, will offset this, and with fair
conditions for the next few months
the grains will turn out as well as
could be expected.

REV. KELLER ON THE STAND.
Alleged Hayward Parson Testifies in
Barker Shooting Case.

Jersey City, June 21-The case of
Thomas G. Barker, charged with
shooting Rev. John Keller at Airing
ton last February, will go to the jury
tomorrow about three o'clock. The
verdict may reasonably be expected
before night. Before court adjourned
this evening the evidence was all in,
and nothing now remains but the ar
gument of the counsel and the judges
charge.
Yesterday Rev. Keller was once
more put upon the stand. He seemed
to have been aroused from the lethar-
gic. state which marked his conduct
when he testified on direct examina-
ton. Then he spoke in a low tired
voice Yesterday his denials of all
the allegations of the Bankers were
spoken in loud firm tone, and when
he was asked if the alleged outrage
was the reason Mrs. Barker left the
church, he shouted out mo" so that it
rang through the court room and cor
ridors.
1t was hard day for Mrs. Barker,
for neighbor after neighbor went on
the stand, and swore her reputation
for truth and veracity was bad.

Chicago Brick Trusts Charter in
Danger.

Chicago Brick Trusts Charter in
Danger.
Chicago, June 22.-Proceedings on a
writ of quo warranto granted ny
States Attorney Deneen will be begun
in the Chicago courts Immediately TO
dissolve the Chicago Masons and
Builders association because of it's
alleged methods in creating monop-
oily by refusing to buy bricks and other
building materials from any but GER
tain favored firms.
The petition asking for the writ was
filed a year ago by Martin Emerich.
president of the Union Pressed Brick
company. Mr.. Deneen has had the
matter under consideration ever since,
and consulted the prominent brick
manufacturers and building material
men before affixing his name to the
writ and delivering it to Attorney
Joseph Newman of the firm of New
man, Lathrop d LewisOn for prOsecu-
ton.
The petition sets forth that the as
ISOLATION is composed of IS per cent.
of the mason contractors of Cook
county, who control 80 per cent. Of the
building work. BY system of svere
dues, regulations and fines, the asso-
citation compels it's members to pur-
chase their material from certain fav-
ored companies, thereby barring all
other firms from competing. The for
fixture of the associations charter is
asked for.
It is asserted that the Chicago
Pressed Brick association receives all
the benefits accruing from the Masons
and Builders association. The
Pressed Brick association is composed
of the following firms: Chicago
Hydraulic Pressed Brick company, the
Cayuga Pressed Brick company, the
Thomas holding company, Charles
Bonner, the Kulage Brick & Tile COM
pany, Jenkins, Reynolds & Co., and
the Union Pressed Brick company.
In the same manner in which the
patronage of the builders is confined 20
the alleged brick trust, it is said that
certain lime dealeRs, and dealers N
rubble and common stone. sewer pipe
and common bricks are also favored to
the exclusion of those who are not in
the monopoly.
