The wreck of the yacht Sylph on reef

Capt. Peter Berkey received a letter
yesterday stating that the salvage on the
craft will amount to nothing, She went
to pieces soon after the party left her
and the clothing and valuables belonging
to the party were recovered only after
divers had been put to work on the
wreck. The women of the party were
five hours in the craft, as she lay pound
ing on the reef before they were rescued.
Several of the men put off in small
boat and after perilous trip secured
aid.
The women were takes ashore and to
Key West where they put up at the
Hotel jefferson and were afterwards
joined by the others of the party. No
one was injured. Although the money
loss in the wreck is heavy, the members
of the party, in the letter received yes
terday, express great satisfaction at
escaping with their lives.-St. Paul Pho

FARMER FOUND DEAD.

BY Some II IL Believed He was Slain
by His Son.
Florence, June 2S.-(Special 1.-The
story has just come to Florence from
near Cypress Inn on the Tennessee line,
of a horrible tragedy that occurred
there last Saturday morning.
At 10 o'clock on that day. G. w.
Moore, a well to do farmer was found
by his neighbors, lying on his bed with
a bullet hole through his left breast,
dead. His Is year old son, John, and a
daughter were the only other occu-
pants of the house and their claim that
their father had committed suicide is
given little credence by members of
the community. The girl claimed that
she knew nothing, while the son told
two different stories, saying first that
his father had shot himself in the
chimney corner and again that the
fatal shot was fired while he was ly-
ing on the bed. The boy bears a bad
reputation and he and his father were
not on good terms and he has been
heard to threaten his fathers life.
The suicide theory is discredited by
the fact that there were no powder
stains on the shirt as would have been
the case If the wounds had been self
inflicted.
No arrests have been made yet, but
suspicion against the son Is very open
ly expressed and his arrest may fol-
low.

Washington. June 2S.-The Weather
Bureaus weekly summary of crop con-
ditions is as follows:
Rain is generally needed in the At

In Iowa and principal corn States
last of the Mississippi River corn has
made good PROCESS. A large crop is
practically assured in Texas, but
drouth has impaired the outlook in the
central and east gulf and south At
lantic States.
The progress of wheat harvesting in
Kansas and Missouri has been inter.
rupted by rains. but this work has
proceeded without interference east of
the mississippi River and is now in
progress as far north as the southern
portions of Illinois and Indiana and in
Virginia and Maryland.
While the general condition of spring
wheat is somewhat less promising tina n
previously indicated, the outlook con-
tinues encouraging in the spring wheat
region east of the Rocky Mountains
oats continue promising in nearly oil
districts and in some of the most i'm
portant States Harvest has begun in
southern Missouri, Tennessee and
North Carolina.
In most of the districts east OF the
Mississippi River cotton has not made

Good growth, however, is reported
from Mississippi and portions of Ala
