 The full committee then adjourned 1 till 10 o'clock tomorrow.
 When the subcommittee met Senator Lodge for the first time presented his draft of a platform, saying that 1t was l intended largely as a basis for action by the committee. His draft included a plank strongly commenting the es- tablished republican policy on the tar if and presenting in terse language the necessity for maintaining the protec- tive policy in the interest of American labor and American industries. Added l to this was a declaration committing 1 the party to a readjustment of their lschedules, if found to be desirable in the future.
 There was also mild declaration on 1 the subject of reciprocity and pro- nouncement against trusts, but with a preservation in the interest of estab- llished, legitimate industries In this iconnection 1t congratulated the party upon the legislation on the trust ques tion which has been secured since Mir.
 Roosevelt became president There were also blanks dealing with 1 the isthmian canal and the policy of the United States towards Cuba, upon (Which the republican party is felicitat- Jed. It also contained declaration in
 favor of encouraging American ship lping.
 | Just before midnight member of the subcommittee said that an agree
 ment had been reached on the tariff plank, and that there would be no mi-
 nority report by any members of the subcommittee. He said the declara-
 ton for protection was emphatic, but
 promised revision when necessary, but
 such revision should be made by re-
 publicans. A mild reciprocity clause,
 he added, is incorporated in the resolu- ton.
 It is not the intention of the sub
 committee to make the platform pub
 lie until it is reported to the full com
 mittee.

 Shortly before the varsity went out the four oar crew was sent out on thd river and received considerable coach- ing. Blagden, the regular stroke of tha four oar has had bad hand and prob- ably will not row again this year as 1t is swelling up. He received a brllise a short time ago which has been irritated by constant rowing, His place was taken by Coach c. E. Adams, the oars man of last year.
 Two more informal yacht races were held this afternoon, Yale and Harvard each winning one. The final race will be sailed tomorrow.
 This mornings work was light as usual, the varsity rowing two and a half miles up the river. The freshmen and four oar crews went out during the morning, but like the varsity found the water was too rough for good work

 Washington, June 21.-Assistant Sec retary of State Loonis has been noti- fled by the officials of the steamship company that his brother, Kent Loomis, who was en route to Europe. had dis appeared from the Kaiser Wilhelm II. MT. Loomis, however, is confident that his brother has not come to harm. His reason for this belief is the fact that when the boat touched at Plymouth, which was during the night, his broth- CT landed, as was shown by the dis patch by him of cablegram which was received in Washington. MT. Loomis thinks that his brother was ac- cidentally left in Plymouth when the boat departed for Cherbourg He is ex- pecting to hear from him at any mo- ments

Winslow, U. s. N; Herbert Knox Smith, deputy commissioner of corpor- ations in the department of commerce and labor, and George Uhler, superyis- ing inspector general of the steamboat inspection service, has been appointed to investigate the disaster to the Gen. eral Slocum near Hell Gate, in the East river, wherei nmore than eight hundred lives were lost. The commission will report at once to Secretary Cortelyou. The assignment of General Wilson and Commander Winslow to duty on the commission was made by the president at the request of Secretary Cortelyou. The commissions Investigation will be entirely independent of the investiga- tion shortly to be made by the local board of steamboat inspectors under the provisions of section 4450 of the re- vised statutes, which compels an in quiry to be made in such cases. The investigation to be made by the com mission appointed to-day will be much broader.
 Secretary Cortelyou to-day sent a let ter to Mayor George B. Mcclellan, of New York city, in response to com munication from the mayor, in which the secretary said in part:
 As the head of the department of commerce and labor, to which the steamboat inspection service is assign ed, beg to assure you that the inves- tigation which has been for several days in progress ordered by this de- partment-will be thorough and ex- haustive. It would be unfair to as- sume that the inspection already made was inadequate, prior to the report on the investigation; but, controlled by such as those you mentioned, had already ordered a reinspection."

FARMERS MEETINGS.

The News has frequently
urged the necessity of Randall
county farmers organizing
forming a Farmers Institute.
All around US they are working,
doing not only good for the
country, but for themselves.
Hereford has been unusually
progressive in this respect and
the good example given us there
could be adopted with profit by
our readers. On the truck and
cotton questions we take the
following from the Brand as a
part of the proceedings of the
institute held at Hereford, Sat
urday, 10:
"Ihe unanimous belief OF al
present was that there would be
a large acreage planted to cab

the block one at a time and
knocked off TO the highest bid

they were taken off tie market
on account of the low price.
The bulls were fine, good size

off the grass. The highest price
paid was 1920, the lowest 500.

An Unfortunate Accident,

Mrs. NJ. j. Overhuls sustained
very painful injuries last Sun
day night as a result of burns
received while removing a hang
ing lamp from its swinging pc.
sition and allowing it to fall.
The lamp was broken and the
oil spattered over her clothing
and a bed which was nearby and
the leaping flames quickly ig.
nited both her wearing apparel
and the bed clothes. Her cries
aroused her neighbors who at
once came to the rescue and did
very effective service in quell-
ing the fire before any material
damage was done either to the
house or its contents. The
flames which almost completely
enveloped and consumed the
clothing of Mrs. Overhuls in
dicted very distressing pain to
her body, though physicians
think that in short time she
will be able to again be out
among her many friends. Mrs,

ire community in the sad &C

MORE COTTON.

Canyon City had the appear.
ance of a down east" cotton
center last Wednesday morning
as a trail of wagons con.
tanning twelve bales of cotton
was to be seen vending its
way across the streets of the
town to the cotton yard near
the Victoria hotel. Eleven of
the bales was the property of
G. L. Ayers, a Lockney mer-
chant, who, as matter of course
had his cotton hauled here for
weighing and shipping facilities.
The other bale, the only one of
the lot offered for sale, was
picked up by W. S. Almond, at
9 cents. 1t is understood that
this is the first of a vast amount
OF cotton which Will be hauled
here for shipment in the very
near future by Mr.. Aver of Lock
ney. While other nearby towns
are spreading alluring state
ments before the cotton growers
to the south as to what they will
give by way of inducement for
their cotton, it will be proved
by figures indisputable that Can
yon City will give the top mar
ket price for all cotton market
ed here by the growers, which
is as much as any town can do
consistently and in keeping with
good business principles. SO,
with the assurance of as good
prices for cotton as will be offer
ed by any other Panhandle rail-
road point and the undisputed
fact that Canyon City merchants
will give just as much for the
money in the way of merchan
disc as the best of them, there is
