MOVE TOWARD
DOLLAR WHEAT
A Conference Of Various Agricultu-
raj Societies Is Being Held
To-day in Chicago.
Its Object Is to Insure Farmers 81 a
Bushel for Their
Product. I'LL.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 19.-President
Everett of the American Society Of Equity
has left for Chicago, where he will be
present to-day at conference to be held
with a view Of launching a united move
ment Of all the agricultural societies for
the betterment Of the American farmer.
At the conference will be representatives
of the National grange, the National
Farmers Alliance and all the other large
farm organizations.
Mr.. Everett says he cannot yet give out
any facts about the methods of the con-
ference, but the objective point is 81
wheat.
1.-THE American Society Of Equity has
done more for the farmer since its incep-
ton than any other society,"" he said,
land it is pursuing course which Is COM
mended not only by farmers themselves,
but by enlightened business men and
bankers, who realize that what we are
doing for the Improvement of the condf-
ton Of the farmers is Of benefit to the
country at large.
1.-THE only opponents we have are the
spectators who would prey on the farm
ers and get their products for nothing.
Everything the American society OF
Equity has promised for wheat this sea-
son has come true. Wheat Is up to SO
cents and they can't hammer it down.
The small supply and the small deliv-
cries by the farmers will insure 81 wheat
We will get this 81 wheat idea we'll dis
tributed thru the winter wheat section
Now we are spreading the idea thru the
spring wheat region up thru the Dakotas
and Minnesota thru our agents."

JOINT NAVAL DEMONSTRATION
Powers Plan to Send a Combined Fleet to
Turkey,

q
Turkey.
Paris Aug. 19.-It was learned in official
quarters to-day that the action Of Rus
STA in ordering a naval squadron to Turk
ish waters may be speedily followed by
important joint naval action on the part
of the powers. Communications are at
present being exchanged between the
powers relative to joint naval demonstra-
tion before Saloniki. The outcome will
depend largely upon Russia, but If a joint
demonstration is determined upon, the
fleets of France and Austria will certainly
cooperate and it is probable that the
fleets OF all the European powers having.
Turkish interests except possibly Ger
many, which, turnout, has not favored
taking energetic steps against Turkey.
will take part in the demonstration.
Squadron Will Walt.
In the meantime the Russian squadron
will not proceed to Constantinople as has
been reported, but will rendezvous at a
small port Of the Vilayet Of Adrianople,
above the entrance of the Bosphorous.
For the present this squadron has no or
ders to assume an aggressive course. It's
action will depend on Turkey sfuIflment
of the terms Of Russia's demands in con-
nection with the assassination Of Consul
Rostkovski. The punishment Of num-
Der Of the parties implicated is not con-
sidered to be full compliance with the
terms Of the demands which include an
adequate indemnity.
Besides the Rostkovske incident the
proposed joint naval action before Salon
Xxi is due to the earnest presentations Of
the foreign consuls at Salonih who set
forth that their lives are in danger. The
first representation on the subject reached
the French authorities several weeks ago

CARD SHARPS
WIN $4,000
Victimized Passengers on Kaiser

$3.50 on Four Kings.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
New York, Aug. 19.-When the Kaiser
Wilhelm II. was warping into the North
German Lloyd docks at Hoboken yester-
day an excited passenger leaned far over
the rail Of the salon deck and shouted to
the throng on the pier: card sharps and
swindlers aboard Have the police come
to the gang plank!"
When the gang plank was let down two
men fought their way down the narrow
bridge into the arms Of the police. Then
the excited man identified himself as
Robert P. Hill Of the American Finance
Surety company. He charged his oppon-
ent, who said he was Morris Levery, q
mining expert, residing at the Murray Hill
hotel, with having swindled him and many
passengers at cards
The men were taken first before police
magistrate and then to the United States
commissioner. AS neither official had
authority in matters pertaining to the
high seas the two men were discharged.
Hill claimed that Levery and his con-
federates got away with $4,000 Of the
passengers money by sharp practices. He
said he lost $3.50 himself altho he held
four kings. His opponent had four aces.

Mangled Corpse Of. Newton Hellyer,
Who Had Been Murdered,
Found Near Winona.
Neck Had Been Cut With a Pocket
knife-Robbery. the Motive
Probably.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal. .g.t
Winona, Mimi, Aug. 19.-Murder, sup
possibly for the purpose Of robbery, was
committed across the river a short dis
lance from the end of the high wagon
bridge at an early hour this morning. The
victim was a working man about 70 years
Of age, whose name, according TO papers
found on his person, was Newton Hellyer,
and who up two days ago had been en-
ployed In the government quarry at
Lamoille, before that working as a
carpenter and brakeman for the MtlWau-
kee & st. Paul road.
A coroner's inquest was held over the
body by Justice Ulrich Of Fountain City
and verdict returned that Hellyer came
to his death by violent means at the hands
Of unknown persons.
Helyer had first been struck on the
back of the head by a blunt instrument
and then his head had been partially sew
erel from his body with a pocketknife,
cutting from behind.
The body was first seen in the road
about o'clock this morning and the au-
thorirties were notified. District Attorney
Feegina Of Buffalo county was at the in
quest and is working up the case. Hellyer
was seen in several Winona saloons yes
terday. .-s-..
Helyer at the Mint" at 8 o'clock last
evening in company with Henry Keen.
Three men, one OF them Hellyer, are said
to have gone over the high wagon bridge
at this morning. -A
Another clue is that two men tried to
board an east-bound freight train at
Marsh, soon after the murder Is supposed
to have occurred and, failing, started to
walk down the track.

which is composed Of the material supply
firms of the city, met In the Kasota block
last night and after a long discussion of
the disagreement between the striking
laborers and the contractors decided,
unanimously, to support the contractors in
their refusal to recognize the Building
Laborers union or to pay fixed, uniform
scale to laborers.
At the same time Mr.. Wilson came in
from Chicago with the announcement that
he was here to stay until the strike was
settled; that he favored arbitration and
opposed the use Of force, and that he
would be glad to have the parties to the
dispute reach an agreement.
Mr.. Wilson was in conference with
the men at labor headquarters this morn
ing, and expected to call upon the
contractors in the course of the day in
an endeavor to have the matter in dispute
arbitrated. II this should be his mission
he will hardly be successful, as the con-
tractors have arranged to make the fight
long one, should the bricklayers hold to
their determination Of last Wednesday to
morning.
Not Opposed to Unions.
The contractors are tncensed over an
inf1ammatory article appearing in a morn
ing paper which puts them in a position
of opposition to unions in general. The
contractors have no fault to find with and
no quarrels with any union but the Build
ing Labmers' union, which demands an
agreement from them that they shall pay
Is cents an hour to all laboring men en-
ployed and that they shall use none but
union laborers.
The Bricklayers' union which, during
the twenty years Of its existence, has had
but one strike and that a short one, and
which has the reputation for being the
most conservative Of the local unions, holds
the key to the present situation. If the
bricklayers decide at their meeting to-
night to strike tomorrow, unless the con-
tractors employ none but union laborers,
there will be no more work in the building
line for Minneapolis worKmen in Mime
apolis this year. If the bricklayers think
better Of their decision Of last week and
decide that the situation does not de-
mand synpa thetic strike, the present
trouble will settle itself and building oper-
ations will be continued.

LIGHT WINDS PREDICTED

tin for Yacht Races-Last
Trial Spin.

New York, Aug. 1e.The local weather
bureau to-day issued the following special
weather forecast for to-sRorrow's yacht race:
1.-The weather over theRcourse of the inter-
national yacht race Thursday will be partly
cloudy, with light to fresh west to north
Winds. Emery"
The weather bureau designates winds with
a velocity of from one to nine miles an hour
as light and winds with velocity of from
ten to nineteen miles an hour as fresh.
Under weather conditions that promise to be
repeated tomorrow on the occasion of the
first of the races in the international series,
the Reliance and Shamrock Ill. respectively
the defender and challenger for the America S
cup, to-day left their moorings at Sandy Hook
for the last spin before the race After
months of trying of spars, ropes and blocks
after repeated tests Of ballast, stretching OF
sails and Furnishing of hulls, both boats are
now in perfect condition, according to the
ideas of their owners and designers and to-
days sail was just a trial, not for speed, but
for a final test of fittings and gear.
The boats crossed Sandy Hook bay onethe
starboard tack and in twelve-knot breeze,
headed out to sea. The sails of both fitted
perfectly. After they had sailed to a point
about mile southeast of the Scotland light
ship, the Reliance headed back, running be-
fore the wind.

that Former Senator e. T. Young of this

commotion and not little indignation
among Mr.. Young's friends.
Mr.. Young has just returned from his

His well known position on the railway
merger question Is reversed and he is
classed with men whose political plans
he has always opposed.
He has been a strong opponent Of the
railroad merger, made many speeches for
Van SAINT on that issue exclusively and
has constantly upheld the course pursued
by Attorney General Douglas. Indeed.
there Is no doubt that II Mr.. Young had
been attorney general he would have pur-'

Mr.. Young is so indignant at the publ
cation in the Dispatch that he has sworn
out warrant charging the publisher Of
that newspaper with criminal libel. The
warrant it Is promised, will be served to-
