Poor Must Use Substitutes for Potatoes.
Cabbages and Beans.
Chicago.-Ethelbert Stewart. Secre-
tary Of the Economical Food Bureau,
who is gathering food statistics for
the Government, is reported as saying
in an interview that the poor are fac
ing crisis which may alter their
mode of life and force them to adopt
substitutes for potatoes and such vege-
tables as cabbage and beans. He has
been making an investigation of the
conditions caused by the exceptional
rise in the prices Of vegetables.
"Rice Is bound to become more and
more popular" he said, "for its price
does not vary much and its qualities
are about the same as those Of pota-
toes. This stringency Is causing the
working classes to eat more soup and
stew than ever before; in fact, the un-
initiated would marvel at the extent
these articles of diet have come into
use since the first Of July. Barley and
rice, corn and hominy, are daily going
into households that did not know
them.
81 have my report along this line
about ready to send to Washington.
and while I cannot make it public, 1t
shows that this condition holds good
throughout the West. not only of vege
tables, but also Of fruit"

TURKEY YIELDS TO FRANCE,

Complete Rupture Of the Relations Be-
tween the Two Countries Averted.
Paris, France.-Turkey has yielded
to French pressure, as was inevitable,
and a complete rupture of the rela-
tions between the two countries has
been averted. An official commu-
nique announcing the granting Of the
French demands has been issued as
follows:
"In consequence Of the declaration
made to the Porte by the French Am
bassador that he acted under instruc-
tions from the Minister of Foreign
Affairs, an imperial trade has been
issued declaring that no obstacle
shalt be opposed to the free exercise
by the Quays Company OF the rights
resulting from it's concession"
A frman for the settlement OF the
other matters in question will. it Is
believed, be issued shortly.
The Foreign Office officials do not
conceal their delight at the settle
ment of the difficulty.
Regarding the other French claims,
as their amount has been agreed to
by Turkey, the negotiations only turn
on the manner Of payment. 1t Is
believed that this will be arranged
very quickly.

BOYS LOST IN THE SURF
four Little Fellows Drowned While
Bathing at Long Branch, N. J.
one of a Party OF Five Reaches Shore -
The Beach Crowded. With u
Summer Guests.

Long Branch, N. J.-Four boys were
drowned in front Of Cranmer's beach.
They were Harold Sherman, twelve
years old; Leon Gaskill, eleven year
old; Raymond Blakeslee, eleven years
old, and Walter Blakeslee, eight years
old.
Stanley Bouse, of Chelsea avenue,
gave the alarm. He emerged from the
water and said that his playmates had
lust been drowned. This information
caused great excitement on the beach.
The FIVE boys started from home for
q bath during the morning. Harold
Sherman and Leon Gaskill wore their
suits from home, placing their coats
and hats in a secluded place for safe
ty. The two Blakeslee boys hired
their suits from Cranmer. where their
clothes were afterward found.
No time was lost in getting to work
to recover the bodies. although the
boys had been drowned a long time
before those on the beach knew the
facts. Captain Charles II. Van Dyke.
with q crowd, and with seine In his
boat, pulled out at once after he got
the news. Hundreds Of spectators
awaited the result of the drag. The
seine, however, went wide Of its mark,
and when pulled in contained nothing
but seaweeds.
More boats were launched and as
time passed the crowd increased in
size, the beach in front Of the United
States Hotel being lined with people.
Then one of the bodies was recovered.
that Of Harold Sherman. the son Of H.
B. Sherman, Of the Citizens Bank.
The father, who had been Informed OF
the accident, was among those who
had rushed to the beach. An hour
later an object was seen floating
a.out 400 feet away toward the south.
It proved to be the body Of Leon Cas-
kill.
The boys were all we'll known. Har-
old Sherman until week ago was en-
ployed as q press feeder and messen-
ger boy for the Record. Leon Gaskill
was the son of Alexander A. Gaskill,
and had many friends. Raymond and
Walter Blakeslee were the sons of
Professor G. W. Blakeslee, Of the high
school.
The boys, who could swim little,
succeeded in reaching a raft located in
front of Cranmer's place. They had
considerable fun for while, but a
huge breaker swept them off, and be-
fore Stanley Bouse, who was the best
swimmer Of the party, could reach
shore to give the news. they had per-
ished. A woman, hotel guest. says
she saw the boys 60 down. but none
heard any cries for help. Bouse had
q hard struggle with the waves, and
on getting ashore was too exhausted
to talk for some minutes.

purposed to ransack the. house and
then destroy the evidence OF their
guilt by fire. Mr.. Ford at first re-
garded the information as the wan
dering of a disordered brain, but the
detail of the plan caused him to- be
on his guard. The attempt would be

Consu1-General Stowe Says tho South
African Problem Undoubtedly is Diff
fcult and Complicated - Kruger Calls
British Proclamation "the BIsckest
Crime Committed Against tho Boers."
London-The Daily Telegraph pub
lishes long interview with Mr.. kru-
ger at Hllversun, in regard to General
Kitchener's latest proclamation. The
correspondent says:
"Mr. Kruger, who seemed greatly
improved in health. spoke vehement
ly and with intense feeling, rejecting
the idea that anything had been
changed except the attitude Of the
British Government. He insisted that
the tactics of the Beers were still as
regular as at the beginning Of the
war. ..
"He declared that ever since the
capture of Bloemfontein the British
had trampled upon the code Of inter
national law. AS for the provision
transports and cattle the British are
continually seizing, Mr.. Kruger said
these were intended not for the Boer
commanders, which lived from hand
to mouth, but for the women and chill
dren.
"He contended that General Kltch-
ener's proclamation itself recognized
that the Beers had a regular admins
tration and an army. The proclama-
ton could have but one ehect-to en-
bitter and intensity resistance.
"Having characterized the procla-
nation as the blackest crime COM
mitted against the Boers,' Mr.. Kru-
ger closed the interview by solemnly
calling Heaven to witness that the
story Of q Dutch conspiracy against
the British was an abominable lie.
the most mischievous and dlabolical
lie ever coined since man hrst up
peared in the world
HE said, however. that peace was
still possible on the basis of give and
take, and that the Beers We're ready
to make reasonable sacrifices and TO
give satisfactory guarantees on the
basis of independence and free paraen
to colonial Afrikanders."
James G.. Stowe, the United States
Consul General in Cape Town, has
arrived from South Africa. Mr.
Stowe said: -.....-.
"I find myself marooned In London.
Apparently every berth on steamers
bound for America Is taken till the
end Of September, and am anxious
to get home, where can do away
with official cares and talk as priv
ate citizen. You know more In Lon
don about the military conditions OF
| South Africa than it Is possible Tor
any one to know In Cape Town.
"The South African problem Is un.
doubtedly difficult and complicated.
| The topography Of the country and
the mobility Of the Beers, whom the
English columns are unable to pursue
individually, make operations most
difficult. The British are feeding
many prisoners and are providing for
thousands Of Boer families, all OF
which is very nice on the part OF
J England. But In the meanwhile the
war drags on. There Is great fu-
ture for South Africa when peace 10

is scarcely scratched. Undoubtedly
England is prepared to- solve the
problem Of reunification; but when
that will occur certainly no person
at the Cape is able to say"
