All Heat Records Were Broken ,'5stetday in Stricken
 Districts
CROPS RUINED BY DROUGHT
Corn YieIe tsiIl Fall 50 Per Cent Short and Wheat Is GfeatIy Damaged. Weather Bureau Offers No
 Hope for Cool Freezes.

Kansas City, Mo-, July 12.-No rain stricken district consisting of all of Kan sas, Western Missouri Oklahoma and In- dian territory. Over much of this region this was the worst day of the long hot spell, the temperature being over hun dred. with no breeze.
 Corn. oats. hay and potatoes are so badly injured that even with rain the yield would be short and as the weather bureau gives no hope of relief the out look is discouraging. At some places in Kansas there has been no rain fall whatever for nearly three months. The present is the worst drought since 1860, when New England sent food to the set tiers of Kansas. However, the past few years have been very prosperous, and even now the Kansas farmers are harvesting one of the largest crops of wheat If not the largest in the history of the state. A great many counties send word that with rain there will be half crop, without rain soon, no yield. A few say there is yet hope for fair harvest.
 Hay sold this morning for $20 ton, a cent a pound, the highest price ever reached in this market. This Is almost as much pound for pound as wheat Is worth. Receipts were very small and most of the hay and wheat was sold some time ago in the country before the drought became so serious.

COL. BANKHEAD ON
 OHIO CONVENTION
He Says Other States Will Fol- low the cad in 1 citing
 Silver Alone

Washington D. C., July 12.-Represent- ative Bankhead of Alabama was In Wash ington today, returning from trip to the Southern and Western coasts with a por- ton of the members of the Rivers and Harbors Committee. The rest of the tour fists went on to Alaska, but MT. Bank head refused to go there because he said he had learned that the constitution did not follow the az.
 The Alabamian agrees with practically all the Democrats that can be found about the Capitol In the opinion that the action of the Ohio Democratic convention was wise. MT. Bankhead says that he expects other States to follow the lead of Ohio. He says he does not believe the Ohio Democrats meant to insult MT. Bry- an by not mentioning him, but it was to- tally unnecessary that he should have re- ceived notice because he is not a candidate for office and Is now simply the same as any other Democratic citizen. He sees In the action of the convention a new era for Democracy and return to surer and sounder principles.
 'As new issues arise." he said, they should be met. The silver question is not at this time live topic and there is no reason why we should tamper with dead issueS."

STRIKE
 MAY BE
 CALLED fl No Agreement is Reached Today the Order Will
 Be Issued THE STEEL WORKERS FIRM The Machinlsts' Strike at Cincinnati Ends and Most of the Men Will Return to Work-PresIdent
 o'conneIi's Statement.
THE STEEL WORKERS FIRM

Pittsburg, July 12.-The second day of Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Work CTS and the steel manufacturers came to close tonight without an agreement be- ing reached. Another session will be held tomorrow A settlement or general strike will then likely be decided upon.
 Late tonight President shaffer said that If no agreement Is reached tomorrow the general strike which was set for last Monday will proceed.
 When asked If strike would involve all the plants of the United States Steel Corporation, MT Shaffer replied:
 f"Every union man in every plant In any way connected with the steel corporation will be called out; and we have many members in mills where they are not sus- pected by the manufacturers.
 A general strike, If ordered. would in- clude the union workers in the Federal Steel Company, the National Steel Com pany, the American Tin Company, the American Sheet Steel Company and the American Steel Hoop Company and the National Tube Company and all members in non-union or open mills, aggregating 60OOo men, who would be affected. But it is believed by conservative steel men that a compromise will be reached tomorrow and strike averted.
 Judge E. H. Gary. chairman of the United Steel executive committee, was not far away from the meeting and was fully cognizant of everything that trans pired.

REMARKABLE CASE,
Chicago Man Meets With Accident,
 Almost Losing His Head.

Chicago H., July 12.-Although his head is almost torn from the body Jo- seph Burdick is still alive, furnishing, 1t Is said, one of the most remarkable cases known to physicians. Burdick's head was all but taken off by a huge piece of metal which fell across his neck yesterday. The trachea and larynx were completely torn away. By some fortune his neck was not broken nor were the jugular vein and carotid artery injured, although both were fully exposed where the flesh had been torn away. Burdick was promptly operated upon and equip ped with device for breathing which projects from the throat just above the collar bone.

Men Can Return to Work.

Cincinnati, July 12.-A meeting of the shop committeeman sfsshe striking ma- etdfnists from the various concerns af- ferted was held tonight, after which a statement was given out which partially denies the report that the strike had been called off. It was learned that while 1t was left discretionary with the men in . number of shops to return without any odium being involvel as deserting the strike, seven firms were picked out at which the fight is to be prosecuted.
 Should any of these shops attempt to transfer their work to those in which the men returned, the men have agreed to re- fuse to handle 1t.
 There were approximately $500 macnin- ists involved in the strike here and of these, the strikers say about ten per cent have already returned The shops affect ed by the decision of the Union to con- tinue the fight employ about HOO men.

Crops Ruined in Kansas.

Topeka, Kan, July 12.-The weather in Kansas continued very hot today, the highest temperature reported being 11O at Fort Scott. The heat was accom- panied by a very light breeze from the south, which came as from a red hot fur mace, blasting and whitening vegetation of all kinds. Crop reports from all parts of the State indicate that Kansas will not raise more than 50.000.O00 bushels of earn this year. The crop will thus be less than third from last years yield, and less than a fifth of 1899. Wheat is nearly all in the stack In many cases it has been harvested only to be burned. As much as 10000 acres of wheat in the stack has been burned during the last two weeks

President o'conneIps Statement.

Washington, July 12.-At the headquar- ters of the International Association of Machinists here President O'Connell ad- mitted that the collapse of the strike at Cincinnati was likely to have consid- erable effect on the strike as Cincinnati has been regarded as the center of the fighting but reiterated that there Is no intuition to call off the general strike and declared that the order would fight 1t out to the end.
