On the whole the corn crop made IA
yorable progress, especially over the
central and western portions of the
corn belt, the most decided advance be-
ing reported from Nebraska and Kan
sas. In the upper Ohio valley corn Is
suffering seriously for rain. which is
also needed in portions of Illinois, Mis-
souri,. and much of the crop in Iowa
will suffer unless rain falls soon. Re-
ports indicate that the early crops VIII

Land in East Africa.


London, Aug. 25.-English Jews are
deeply interested in the announcement
made by DR.. Theodore Herzl, president
of the Sixth Zionist congress. at its
opening Sunday at Basel, Switzerland,
that Great Britain. in view of the col
lapse OF the project to establish Jews
on the Sinai peninsula. had offered the
Zionists a large tract of territory In
East Africa. The proposal of the Brit
ish government however, simply con-
templates the establishment of Il Jew
sh colony in a section of the British
empire needing development.
Lord Rothschild said yesterday In
reference to the proposal:
Fearing the Jewish emigration from
the British isles. the government mas
offered tract of land in East Africa
to Jews emigrating there. They will
be under British rule. In other words
they will simply be colonsts. do not
know whether the proposition Will be
accepted
The majority of the Jews in England
are said to be opposed to its accept
ance. Israel Zangwill and Sir Francis
Montefiore. who are at Basel, will. 1t Is
believed, uphold the proposal.

Chicago. Aug. 25.-Close to 5000 cat
tie were received today including LOO
roughs Trade was slow and dull but
as a rule there was no change in values
as compared to yesterday. The quality
was rather poor
Hogs-Though offerings of hogs We're
very moderate there was weak de-
mand and prices from the start were
lower. Opening bids We're generally
five cents off, and later prices mostly
ten lower with many packing kinds
fifteen lower. The quality of offerings
was poor and supplies contained but
few lights and butcher weights, the
bulk being heavy kinds of only poor to
fair quality.
Sheep-Close to $4,000 We're landed
here today and among them enough
common and medium lambs to hold the
market for such in very feeble coz
dition, plain native lambs selling fully
25 cents below last weeks prices and
feeding lambs about ten to fifteen cents
