AGRICULTURAL REPORT.
Secretary Wilson Submits His Annual
to the President,

u tnc FTeSluent.
James Wilson, secretary of agricul-
ture. has submitted his annual report
to the president. In part he says:
Out of their continued abundance
during the past year the farmers of
the nation have contributed food and
raw materials for manufactures to hun.
dreds Of millions Of people in foreign
countries, besides sustaining 100000
at home.
Represented in value, the exports of
grain and grain products had about
two thirds of the Importance of cotton
in the last fiscal year, the value of the
export being more than 1921 100000.
From 46,000,000 acres of wheat there
was surplus for foreign mouths
amounting to 114,000,0O0 bushels and
100000 barrels of flour, amounts
that together represent 100000, 900
bushels Of wheat.
Third in Importance are the exports
Of meats and meat products, with a
grand total of $17s,O00,000, to which
may be added $35.OOO,OOO for live ami.
mails. Quantities that are beyond the
grasp of the mind represent the ex.
ports of meats and their products. The
pounds of beef were 3S5,0OO,OO0; of
pork, 551, 100000; of lard, 491 900, 900,
and of oleo oil, 126,000,000.
The foregoing figures, it should be
borne in mind, do not stand for the to.
tai production Of the farms, but for
the surplus production after the wants
of the people at home have been salts
fed.

coUNTRY's CREDIT.
Bankers Say Our Debts Are Dimin-
ishinu,

A large portion of Wall street is
just now trying to figure out how large
a credit balance this country is piling
up abroad and how much gold we
may count on getting from other coun-
tries in the near future. This, of
course, has more or less of a bearing
on the amount of available funds for
business and speculative purposes.
For two years we were in reality
running behind because of our enor-
nous borrowings abroad, although we
actually had a large trade balance in
our operations with other countries.
But bankers practically agree that we
ness created in Europe by syndicates
at one time estimated at upwards of
So 900, 600 ,0OC-and now we are rapid
ly piling up credit balance.
A factor that helped to rapidly wipe
out our credit in the past, up to a re-
cent date, was the continued lquida-
ton of our securities by foreigners.
II is now believed that the selling is
over. For a week Europe has been a
considerable buyer Of our securities
and one foreign banker expressed the
opinion that after declines off and on
for a year and half in our stocks
Europe stood ready to take back
quite coed many at the present low
level. He said that sentiment there
was much improved toward all invest.

panama Discovers A PLOT
LIFE OF GENERAL HUERTAS Is
THREATENED.
Four Army Officials From Colombia
Charged With Trying to Persuade
Garrison at Panama to Revolt
Were Promptly Apprehended-They
Declare It Is Spite Work.

through a letter the Panama gov
eminent has discovered what is al.
legged to have been a plot against the
life of General Huortas, commander
IN chief of the forces of the republic
OF Panama, and an effort ON the part
OF army officials to persuade the gar
rison at Panama to revolt. If such a
plot really. existed it was promptly
nipped in the bud by the apprehension
at Panama of four alleged conspira-
tors, who were Immediately brought
under guard to Colon and shipped
hence to Port Limon.
The prisoners were all born in the
interior OF Colombia, and have been
on the isthmus for years. They were
members of the Colombian battleship
which gave its support to the new gov
eminent when the republic was form
ed, and which was commanded by Cen
eral Huertas. They all took the oath
of allegiance to the new republic and
continued to serve in the army. One
of them is colonel named Ferrol,
two are majors, and the fourth is the
adjutant of General Huertas.
They declare that the charge that
they were engaged in a conspiracy is
the work of personal enemies, and
that some Colombian who was deport-
ed from the isthmus Immediately after
the establishment Of the republic No
vember 8, sent letter from Port Ii
mon addressed to Colonel Ferrol. The
communication was written in terms
duplicating them in such a plot. At
the same time, they say, the writer
advised some of the officials at Pana.
ma to secure and read the letter ad-
dressed to Colonel Ferrol before 1t was
delivered to him. This was done 9th
er last night or this morning. The
four persons were arrested this morn
ing at the barracks and lodged in Jail.
This afternoon they were conveyed
to the railway station, where they
were placed on board train bound
for Colon.
According to their statement, they
were not allowed to make any explana-
ton. The writer of the letter, they
say, may have been prompted by a
desire to injure them because they
turned Panamains, or the whole plot
may have been concocted in Panama
in order to get them out of the coun-
try because, as Colombians, they were
disliked here. They do not dare go to
Colombia, where, they assert, they will
be treated as traitors. The govern
ment will pay their passage to Port
Limon. They are entirely without
funds and have no means Of earning
living, but they express the hope
that ultimately they will be permit.
ted to return to the isthmus.
Upon arriving here the prisoners
were placed in jail. The reports in
circulation that they attempted to as.
sassinate General Huertas are not
true. Nevertheless. the government
doubtless had some evidence against
them to Justify the step Of deporting
them.

RETURN POLO
i MATCH TODAY

Men and mounts will be on their met
tie at Moanalua this afternoon when
Kauai meets Oahu in the third and last
game of the polo match between the
two islands.
Kauai's plusky uphill work against
unknown conditions of field and the
splendid way in which they have pulled
themselves together since that unlucky
first period in the first game. has
brought the visitors the commentator
and friendly wishes for victory of all
who have seen the games. Should they
carry off the game today there will not
be backward cheer from anyone.
AS players they have shown them
selves brilliant and fearless. as oppon-
ents they have won the. respect and
ood-fellowship Of the home team.
While the short, slippery turf of the
Moanalua field, so provocative of fast
game, and so different from the, to
quote golf for an instant, hazards and
sand bunkers of the Kauai field, seri-
ously handicapped the Red players un-
til they corked their ponies hoofs and
got better acquainted with the ground,
there is, while not seeking to find any
excuses for Kauai, another circum-
stance which makes their showing all
the more creditable.
1t should be remembered that the
visitors. when at home, have but a
small number of players to choose
from, perhaps only one other man be-
sides Philip Rice who could be con-
sidered reliable substitute. Thus
aside from lackof opportunity for stiff
practice at team work or general tao
tics,i they have no chance to choose
men for the various positions by nat
ural selection. Arthur Rice would very
possibly play Malina's position better
than his own for example, but there
was no one to play but himself
Jimmy Spalding at l is the right man
in the right place but the others had
to play willy nilly, whether they were
best suited for the place or not
This afternoon the match starts as
usual at 8 o'clock with the govern
ment band in attendance and it is not
expecting too much to look for the
closest game of the series Kauais
loss of three ponies will be met by the
Oahu boys leaving out some of their
mounts, the teams playing an even
number Of ponies.
Spalding and Dole, Atkinson and Ar
thur Rice will constitute a series of
Siamese Twins on horseback as they
keep the way clear for Malina and
Charlie Rice to combat against Dilling-
ham and Castle. The intense rivalry
between the teams has been marked by
an exhibition of the closest good fell
lowship and no one will ieel better over
Kauai victory than the Oahu players
and the members of the Oahu club.
The usual arrangements for buses
have been made.

PUNAHOU WINS
FOOTBALL GAME

IAN exciting game of football was
played yesterday afternoon on the Pu-
nahou grounds between Punahou and
High School, two teams of the Junior
Football League. Punahou won, 1875.
The first half was rather slow with
fumbling on both sides. High School
had the best of it during this half fore
ing their opponents, who didn't seem to
enter into the game well, within eight
yards of their line. They lost the ball
here but later Sherwood, the High
School fullback, kicked goal
Punahou made their score in the sec
ond half. A kick by Punahou was fun
bled by High School. and Schnack, the
Punahou half, secured the ball and
made a touchdown.
The second touchdown was made
around High Schools left end, Hattie,
Punahou's left end, carrying the ball.
Lowrey kicked goals in both instances.
The next game of the Junior League
will occur on Monday, Nov. %, at Pu-
nahou, the game being between Kane
hameha and Punahou.

Val Younq's Punishment.

Sioux City. July 22.-val Young. ar
rested on July on a charge of abusing
his wife, who had just given birth to
twins. was held to the grand jury in
Justice Stafford's court. His bond was
fixed at $500, in default of the payment
of which he went to the county Jail.
Young was bound over on a much
graver charge than that first preferred
by his wfe-a charge of assault with
intent to kill, preferred on information
given by Special officer William Wss-
ton, who claims that Young attempted
to knife him as he was about to arrest
him for abusing his wife.
Holding pretty little blue eyed girl
in her lap. while three other children
chung to her skirts. Mrs. Young sat in
the witness chair in Justice Stafford's
court and bravely tried to defend her
husband.
The plea of the woman to save her
husband from getting full punishment
for his base actions. and the nonchal-
ant way in which she spoke of being
beaten and threatened by the man who
promised to love and to cherish her,
We're indeed stranger than fiction.

any threats in any way towards Ferris
Mrs. Holmes, who is a sister OF MISS
Ida May Parker, was subpoenaGd TO
appear, but is now dangerously Ill In
the hospital.
Miss Parker was the principal wit
ness at the inquest. and 1t was thru
her that the attorneys thought the
murder clew would be developed. She
is supposed to have been the lover OF
Ferris. and at the same time the sister
in-law of Holmes. She was on the
stand n long time, and answered all
the questions put to her in straight
forward manner. She would not swear
that Ferris was intoxicated on the
night that he was killed, but dld say
when he came to the house late in the
evening he had been drinking. 1t "as
shortly after II o'clock that he knock
ed, and Ii was then that he had the
quarrel with her in regard to getting
into the house. After leaving her ne
went toward the railroad tracks. and no
doubt fell under the freight and was
killed as he was not seen alive after
this.
The rumor that Ben Ferris was muir
dered arose from the fact that he ana
Holmes were supposed to have quarrel-
ed. and this statement exaggerated IN
to fact, and also that the latter made
a death threat were what led to the
investigation.
