the remainder is believed to be only
the matter OF a careful search OF the

The prisoner had been subjected TO
merciless sweating for nearly three

assertions OF the officers that they had
a good case against him and the fear
of an excessive prison sentence that
would deprive him of tSance to enjoy
the proceeds of the crime told upon
him, and he sent for superintendent
Ropp, of the smelling works. who. he
said. was his only friend. and confessed
TO him.
1t is understood that the robber has
been promised not only his liberty but

How the Corn Looked to the Secretary In

TO particularize: The corn along
the % road in southern Iowa is very

and the other half does not now prom

of Nebraska corn and Kansas is suffer

The crop in central Iowa promises
better IL has heavier stalks. but an
examination of the ears show incOm-
pletc fertilization. Sufficient rain has
not vet fallen to carry on the crop to
maturity i'm most of the states OF the
great corn belt. In many localities the
rainfall has heen light. making but lit

The organic matter plOwcd under en-
abIed the soil to retain the moisture.
and cultivation maintained a surface
mulch that prevented evaporation. but
even the corn with such conditions re-
quireS more rain that IL has had, and
will depend on precipitation for good
results.
Northern Iowa and Minnesota have
lighter crops that look green and
healthy. but need rain. and cannot
have average crops OH account of inn

the urgent need of more rain. so that

porters until later, when the worst is

how far imperfect pOllinatiOn has af-
fected IL.
The wheat = reported good every

and caused shrinking, but this always
occurs to some extent. Oats are re-
ported light in most states. owing to
hurried ripening. The same is said of
barley. Potatoes are very seriously In

could learn there WAS absolutely no
chance of the other employees Of the

strike order. and that there would be
no stOppage of work in the mills today.
He said the sentiment there was prac-
ticaIly the same as that here-that

company employees would be a violation
OF the contract existing between the
men and the company. and that the
men had absolutely no grievance
against their present employers.
