NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS.
Crop Estimates Vary.

The Bureau OF Statistics OF the Depart
ment OF Agriculture, disturbed by COM
plants OF discrepancies between the de-
partment' crop reports and various COM
mercial estimates, has determined to
make an investigation with the view oil
insuring absolute accuracy in future re-
ports.
The subject has been thoroughly con-
sidered in the department and Secretary
Wilson has authorized Statistician John
Hyde 10 use every available means TO
ascertain wherein the differences lie. II
has been determined to send at once into
the cotton belt 10 experts, who will visit
every cotton shipping point and make
the closest possible investigation, taking
into account every pound OF cotton and
its origin, whether OF this years crop or
OF that OF another season.
Mr.. Hyde has been impressed with
the idea that much cotton OF the COM
mercial estimates is wrongly placed to the
credit OF crops to which it does not be-
long. Frequently crops OF past season
still on hand are included in the amount
OF cotton set down as OF this years crop.
This will be one OF the main features OF
the investigation. A considerable lot OF
cotton is said to be included in the esti-
mates from commercial sources which
belongs to what is called the "city crop, -
which consists OF cotton that in market
sampling from season to season in many
OF the large towns, accumulates in con-
siderable quantities.
The effort OF the department will be
directed to insure the greatest possible
accuracy in estimates as to cotton on
hand, as we'll as to cleaning information
which will tend to absolute reliability in
the departments estimates OF crops.
The early maturing OF cotton this season,
much Of it getting to market during July
and August and taking with it cotton OF
last season, will be treated in the data to
be gathered by the experts assigned to
make the investigation.

FIRE NE r PRESIDENT.
The Bands Played. and Cool Heads Averted
Disastrous Panic.

Cincinnati Especial Roosevelt Day
at the Cincinnati fall festival and the un-
usually successful ceremonies attending
the Presidents visit here came near be-
ing marred by a panic that would have
caused great loss OF life Over 5000
persons were packed into the Auditorium
when the President began speaking. At
the same time the adjoining exposition
halls were crowded with hundreds Of
people viewing the exhibits, as they were
unable to gain admittance in the Music
Hall.
After the President had been speaking
about IS minutes there was a great COM
motion in Mechanical Hall, which ad-
joins Music Hall on the north Sparks
from an electric wire had set a curtain
on fire and the fire department had been
called to the scene.
The police and attendants OF the expo
sition soon put out the fire, but they had
much more trouble in controlling the
alarmed crowd. 1t was with great diff
fculty that Capt ]. B. Foraker. son OF
the Senator, and one of the officers Of
the day, headed off the hremen from
rushing into the building where the
President was delivering his address
Happily one of the bands struck UP
and those who left the auditorium were
supposed to be going out to stop the
band rather than to head off a panic
Very few in the auditorium, where the

about the incident, and Mr. Roosevelt
suffered only slight interruption with

To Build Military Road.

On the urgent recommendation OF
Gen. A. X. Chaffee, commanding the
military forces OF the Philippines, Sec
retary OF War Root to-day authorized
an expenditure OF $50. 900 for immedi-
ate use in the construction OF a mill
tary road in the Island OF Mindanac,
from llligan, the chief port on the
north coast OF the island, to point on
the northern shore of Lake Lanao.
This Lake is in the heart of the Moro
country and its shores are thickly
dotted with villages, the aggregate in
habitants OF which are estimated at
$4,000. The Spaniards never were
able to penetrate this populous strong
hold OF the Moros Although the main
purpose OF this road is to encourage
friendly dealings with the natives, it
undoubtedly will be OF great value in
any military movement which may be-
come necessary to insure the submis-
sion OF the people to American sover-
eighty.

FIVE DEAD IN WRECK.
Passenger Trains Crash Head'0n on Long
Curve Near Pittsburg.

Pi;tsburg (SpeciaD.-Five trainmen
were killed and two severely injured
in headon collision between Buffalo,
Rochester and Pittsburg and Pittsburg
and Western passenger trains at Wit
mer Station, on the Pittsburg and
Western railroad, about 10 o'clock in
the morning. A number OF passen-
gers were cut and bruised by flying
splinters and broken glass, but none
was badly hurt
The accident it is alleged, was due
TO the failure to flag the passenger
trains. The Buffalo. Rochester and
Pittsburg and the Pittsburg and West
ern railroads occupy the same tracks
to Butler, Pa. About half mile this
side OF Wilmer Station is a long curve,
A freight train became disabled on the
west-bound track on the curve early
in the morning, and as work is being
done on a new tunnel all trains were
run on the other track. By a mistake,
it is said, the trains were allowed to
come together, instead OF holding the
one until the other had passed.

A NEW BOXER RISING.
Chinese Outlaws Again Killing and Burning
Kingdom Disturbed.

Washington, D. c. (SpecaD .-Secre-
tary of State Hay predicted year or
more ago what would happen in China
if the powers insisted upon the payment
of excessive indemnities for outrages
suffered during the Boxer uprisings of
1900 by foreigners. His prophecy seems
TO be substantially confirmed now in an
important report received by the State
Department from United States Minis
ter Edwin II. Conger, i'll which he
shows a most disturbed state of affairs
throughout the kingdom.
The attitude of this government dur
ing the discussion of the indemnity
question was that China should not be
forced to pay a sum greater than she
could raise within a reasonable time,
and that if an attempt was made to
make the demand extortionate difficulty
might be experienced later in collecting
the annual amounts due, and, besides,
tile Chinese people might attempt TO
overthrow the government and repudi-
ate the debt entirely. There have been
rumors for some time of an unsettled
feeling among certain classes opposed to
the present Chinese government and
which have not looked with favor upon
the democratic ways OF the court
Minister Conger informs the depart
ment that serious anti-foreign riots have
