CAPT. JOHANN ORTIZ.
Archduke of the Austrian Empire
Who Mas Banished from
His Country.
SAID TO HAVE BEEN LOST AT SEA
His Disappearance - Married
an Actress.

New York, June lie. Z. Wychgel,
of Washington, superintendent of Il
dredging company with offices in this
city. has in his possession, it is said, Il
letter which would appear to prove
almost beyond doubt that Archduke
John, nephew of the emperor of Aus
tria, who mysteriously disappeared in
1880 while on Il voyage in South Amer
lean waters lost his life ut sea. For
twelve years stories that the archduke
was still alive have come from various
parts of the world. In 1887 an ire
concilable quarrel occurred between
the emperor and his nephew, who was
imperial archduke of Austria. royal
prince of Hungary and grand ducal
prince of Tuscany.
He Married "A Stage Singer.
The duke was deprived of all his
offices. His rank as soldier was tax
en- from him. his name was striken
from the army list and he was forbid
den to appear ut court-this despite
the fact TINT no one more than his i'm
perrin uncle admired his talents and
force OF character. 1t was at this time
that he met in Vienna Il singer whose
beauty was attracting attention
throughout Europe. After continued
success abroad she came to this cOun-
try and made her debut at the Thalia
theater in the Bowery, then the home
OF comic opera. Soon afterward she
was married to the duke in London.
Sails for the Southern Countries.
Efforts of friends TO settle the quar-
rel ut court were futile, and the arch
duke, assuming the name of Johann
Orth, bought Il vessel in England. as
Sumed command and, with his wife.
sailed for South America. The ship
was reported ut Ensenada, near Bue-
nos Ayres. and has not been heard
from sine then. Nevertheless reports
that Johann Orth still lives have
buoyed up the aged archducheSs in a,
Tuscan castle. il is said. and she new
er has believed her son to be dead.
Wychgel says that while he was SUI
perintendent of Il dredging company at
EnseRada in 1870 Archduke John sail
ballast for trip To Valparaiso. Chile.
Last Time He Was seen I'm Port.
They had n slight dispute over the
weight, and the archduke said the
ballast was to come out at Valparaiso
where it should be weighed and a
draft sent for the difference in price
If there was any. He gave Wychgel a
letter of recommendation which the
latter still has. The ship sailed Il few
days later, and was not sighted there
after Wychgel says the archduke's
wif8 was not aboard the ship. how
ever. and that she returned to BuenoS
Ayres after IL sailed. No word has
been received from her. however. and
she also has been generally believed
TO have lost her life on the sea.

history of the striek from the Shamo-

propositions by Thomas understood to
be the basis of the first conference of

OF THE GROWING WHEAT CRoT
Spring Variety Shows n Decrease In Acre
age-Its Average Condition.

uBe-hts
Washington, June 11.-Preliminary
reports of the spring wheat acreage
Indicate a reduction of about 2,511 coo
acres. or 1913 per cent. OF the nine
teen states reporting spring wheat,
thirteen report reduced acreage.
Washington being the only state hav-
tug 100000 acres or upward in this
product that reports an increase. There
is a reduction OF 145.OOO acres in Min
neSOta. and of 100000 acres in North
Dakota, due largely to unfavorable
weather conditions during sowing time
in the Red River valley: reduction
of 100000 acres in South Dakota, re-
sulting in the main from an increaS
ing tendency toward greater diver
SificatiOn of crops, and reduction of
100000 acres i'm Nebraska, consequent
upon that gradual yielding of spring
wheat to winter wheat which is going
on i'm almost every section of the state.
The average condition of spring
wheat on June 1 was 9J.4, as COM
pared with 81 at the corresponding
date last year, S1.3 on June I. 1900,
and a ten-year average of S2.6. The
present reported average condition has
been exceeded only three times in the
last fifteen years. OF the states having
10O0,000 acres or upward in spring
wheat. South Dakota reports condi-
tion of 100. North Dakota sc. and
Minnesota and Iowa 96. In Washing
ton and Oregon, which together have
over 100000 acres in spring wheat.
the condition averages are 81 and 90,
respectively.
The average condition of winter
wheat on June l was T6.1. as COM
pared with 76.4 on May ]. 1902; 81 s.
on June 1. 1901; 50 on June 1. 1900.
and S0.3 the mean of the June aver
ages of the last ten Xears.
