F. KENT LOOMS
BODY identified
The coroner's Jury Returns an
Open Verdict.
EVIDENCE WAS CONJECTURAL
"sFound Dead. Washed Up BY the
Sea in BiGbury Bay.
shire, Was Verdict of
the Jury.

Kingsbridge, Devonshire, July 49,
"Found dead, washed up by the sea in
Bigbury bay, Devonshire," was the
verdict of the coroner's jury in the in
quest on the remains Of F. Kent Loo
mis-. The evidence was very conclu-
sive and wholly conjectural, as pointed
out by the coroner when he advised
this open verdict, adding that although
death was caused by a blow, there was
nothing to justify the suspicion that
it was foully administered.
Consul Stephens, of Plymouth, has
charge of the body, which is in a fair
state of preservation. 1t will be en-
balmed and shipped to the United
States for burial as 0 as practical
BILE.
Consul Stephens testified that he had
seen the body, and from information
| supplied to him, officially, he unhesi-
tatingly identified it as that of Loomis,
who was acting as a special messenger
for the government, carrying impor-
tant dispatches from the government at
| Washington to the embassy at Paris.
DR.. Webb, one of the medical men
appointed to examine the body, testified
that there was a confused wound be-
low and behind the right ear, indicate
ed by the e~xtravasation OF blood in
the scalp, a rupture of the covering OF
the brain. There was also a general
bruise, involving the scalp and the in
tegument of the brain on the left side
above the ear. Both injuries, in the
doctors opinion, were caused before
death.
Death Was Result Of Blow.
DR.. Webb added that LOOMS might
have been stunned and have fallen into
the water and been drowned. 1t was
not a sharp wound, but possibly the
result of a fall on his head. Either he
struck something or something struck
him on the head. The blow was not
inflicted after death. Surprising the
deceased had assembled on deck at mid
night to take air and went to an unpro-
tected space where the davits were and
he fell, that would account for the
wound. He died as the result OF a
blow, Int there was nothing to indi-
cate how tie blow, which was a very
heavy one, had been inflicted. TIL
blow seemed to have been struck in a
horizontal direction. The wound was
about an inch and three quarters long
and pear shaped.
Replying to Consul Stephens, DR..
Webb said the blow might have caused
death If LOOMS had not fallen into the
water.
Consul Stephens explained to the cor
oner that If the time at which Loomis'
watch had stopped was American time,
it meant one o'clock here, which was
about the time the Kaiser Wilhelm
reached Plymouth on June 20. None of
the official papers carried by LOOMS
was lost or stolen.
The summed up lengthily,
and advised the jury to find an open
verdict. The jury then returned a YER
dict that the deceased vas Frederick
Kent Loomis, and that he was found
dead in Bigbury bay, there being no
evidence to show how he met his
death.

MISSOURI CROP BULLETIN.
Wet Weather Delays Harvesting and
Prevents Flowing of Co~rn--COt-
ton Growth Is Fair.

Columbia, Mo-, July 12.-The United
states department of agriculture, eli
mate and crop bulletin of the weather
bureau, Missouri section, for the week
ending July II, 1904, says:
Showery conditions prevailed during
the past week over the entire state,
with heavy rains a. a prominent fea-
ture in the western and southern por-
tons, overlooking the bottoms, for the
third time this season, In the counties
bordering along the Missouri and
Usage. The weather continued cool
also. The temperature was about 6 de-
grees below the normal in the north
west section, 3 degrees in the central,
4 degrees in the northeast, = degrees
In the southeast, and l degree below
the normal in the southwest section.
There was scarcely any farm work per-
formed during the week.
Harvesting progressed under great
difficulties: it is about completed south
of the Missouri; where not hindered by
rain, entirely. Considerable wheat has
been abandoned in the fields in the
southwest, central and south counties,
due to rust and moisture, and consid-
cradle of that now in shock Is mold
ing and sprouting; similar complaints
come from the northwest section of the
state also. The rains have been 50
continuous that very little threshing
has been done, and very little of the
wheat is in the stack. The yield, so
far, is reported to be very poor.
Oats have been harvested under the
same difficulties. The prospects for a
good yield has d~eterlorated very much;
the rust is taking the crop badly, and
a great deal of it is down on the
ground, or lodging badly. In many
fields the, crop is dead ripe, but, owing
to the very wet condition OF the
ground, the reapers can not get into
the fields. All reporters take a gloomy
view Of the prospects.
Corn made quite a rapid growth, and
where some reports state that IL IL
turning red or yellow, the majority re-
port that the color and growth is good,
but the fields are very weedy; very lit
tie of the corn crop has been laid by
and this small portion was laid by II
the mud. In the southern portion o.
the state the corn is in tassel and SILK
but many fields have not been plowed
for three weeks, and will not be ploweo
now on account of the weeds and size
of the corn. In the northeast section
the corr is small, but most OF the helds
are fairly clean.
Cotton continues to make fail
growth. The week was wet in Dunkli1
county, however, and the fields are get
ting foul. There was also some loca
damage from hail on the It'll nea'
Campbell.
Clover cutting and haying in genera
was much hindered by rains, and con
siderable hay is rotting in the fields
very few meadows have been cut. Pas
.ures are in excellent condition.
Potatoes are yielding a good quality
out few in the hill; fruit and berrie
continue in fair condition.
