HESSIAN FLY ENDANGERS GRAIN
Belief that Fully 10 Per Cent of Wheat
Crop Is in Danger.

There is much anxiety among grain
men at the condition of wheat. 1t has
been found that the Hessian fly exists
at Mcpherson, Kan, to an alarming ex-
tent. From the samples of wheat
brought in it was found that all grain is
infested with from one to eighteen flies.
Many of the stalks are already broken
in two. One grain firm estimates that
fully IS per cent of the crop is in dan
ger. All volunteer wheat seems to be
completely infested without exception.

completed organization to-day and the
House Committee on Elections and Priv

dence in the numerous contests. upon the
result of which hangs the election of
a United States Senator The Republi-
cans opposed to the candidacy of former
Senator Edward Q. Woicott, who were
enabled to organize the House by the
aid Of the Democrats. have guaranteed
that all contests shall be tried on their
merits. and no member be arbitrarily
expelled or without a fair trial This is
the full extent, it is asserted by both the
anti-Wolcott Republicans and the Demo-
Gratis of the agreement between them.
Wolcott has announced that he would
stay in the contest for the Senatorship
to the end. but he has expressed the be-
lief that the deal between his Republican
opponents and the Democrats means the
reelection of Senator Henry NJ Teller.
The baIloting for Senator will begin on
January 20.

tain his position as Consul General of
Germany at Calcutta Oddly enough, the
exact whereabouts of Baron Won Stern
berg is not known at the Foreign Office.
1t is thought, however, that he is visit
ing kinsfolk in Saxony.
All the Foreign Office officials will say
about Won Holleben is: He has not been
recalled and his leave was granted upon
his own initiative. The Government would
never recall an ambassador in the midst
of important negotiations without grave
reasons, and these certainly do not exist
In this case. The supposition that the
Government is angered because the En-
bassador failed to obtain President Roose-
Venezuelan question is wholly incorrect.
Germany reckoned in advance that the
President might have weighty reasons for
declining hence her note of December %
contained the alternative proposition to
refer the matter to The Hague arbitra-
ton court. Still, 1t was felt that the in
ternational political factors in the case
dictated the appropriateness of first Of
fering the President the arbitratorship1
However the dissatisfaction of the
Government with Won Hollebens man
agement of the Venezuelan affair is as
serted without reserve in important
newspapers. 1t seems that the Govern
ment feels ii was misled, or at least not
fully informed, by the Washington EN-
bassy respecting President Roosevelt's
attitude. The opinion also is that DR..
Won Holleben's dispatches regarding the
policy of the United States in the Vene-
zuelan business and its general foreign
policy have been neither adequate nor
precise.
A variety of other reasons have con-
tributed to the lack of confidence in the
ambassador. The Vossische Zeitung, for
instance, attributes Importance to the
telegram sent by Emperor William to
Mrs Kipling on March 5, 1899, when Kip
Ing was Ill in New York. The news
paper assumes that Dr. Won Holleben
counseled the sending of the telegram,
and that the Emperor. especially since
the publication of Kiplings recent poem,
"The Rowers." feels he was ill-advised.
Emperor William, when KipIing was ILL.,
wired as follows to Mrs. Kiplings
