Wisconsin Section for the week ending
May q
The absence of rain during the past
week, the brisk to high northerly winds
and the full sunshine caused the soil to
dry ont very rapidly, and II large amount
of work on the land WAS accomplished
In the southern counties the seeding
of oats, barley and spring wheat and
rye progressed rapidly, and in ~ few 10
calities is nearly completed, with the
soil in fairly good condition. Some
plowing for corn has been done, al
though this work has not been pushed
owing to the lateness of the season and
the necessity of completing spring seed
ing as soon ~ possible In the centra
and northern sections less has been nc
complished but farmers are generally
actively engaged in seeding, where the
land is in proper condition, and Will
another week OF fair weather the hnll
of this work will be accomplished
Although the winds during the week
have been steadily from n northerly
direction, there has been gradual in
crease in the temperature. especially in
the central and western counties, away
from the influence Of the lake.
Vegetation has made some progress,
especially in the southern and western
counties. where slightly higher tenn
peratures prevailed.
New seedlings of clover and timothy
are in good condition and have attained
a good start, but old meadows are
generally very badly winter killed
Winter wheat and rye are generally
in fair condition, although these crops
sustained considerable damage from
the freezir & weather Of last week
Strawb, rries are generally reported
in good condition, but blackberres aud
raspberiifs that were not protected
III ON the severe cold during the winter
are badly injured
Very little work has been done or
gardens except in few localities il
the southern section.

SUICIDE THEORY DOUBTED.
Funeral of Mayor McLane Occurs il
Baltimore.


A dispatch from Baltimore last night
says: The funeral of the late Mayor Robert
NJ McLane, who shot and killed himself
last Monday, took place today. After a
brief ceremony at his late home, conducted
by DR.. J. B. 8. Hodges of Old st. Pauls
Protestant Episcopal Church, the body was
conveyed to Greenmount cemetery, where
the interment was made. There were no
honorary pallbearers, the family of Mr..
McLane preferrng to have a private fun
eraL The bodybearers included city Off
Gals and college friends of the dead mayor.
Thousands of friends and admirers of the
lamented chief magistrate of the city filled
the sidewalks. with barred heads as the
funeral cartege passed en- route to the
cemetery. Hundreds of others surrounded
the grave. when, after a brief service, con-
Quoted by Dr. Hodges. the body of the
popular young mayor was lowered into it's
last resting place
The grave of the former mayor is To-
Gated within few feet of that of his
uncle the late Robert NJ. McLane, former
governor of Maryland and United States
minister to France under President Cleve-
lands administration, after whom the dead
mayor was namd
Marshal of Police Farnan received word
today from Dr. Claude Van Bibber that
Mayor McLane on Monday was found to-
day under the bed in the third history back
room, where the mayor died.
Since the bullet was found under the bed
there Is possibility that. after all, the
mayor may have shot himself accidentally.
1t would have been necessary for him to
have been STOPPING very low at the time
the pistol went off to permit the bullet to
have gone under the bed, and the POSSIBLE
ity Is that he may have been leaning over
the bureau examining the weapon when 1t
exploded. Had he been in any other po-
sition, it would have been almost impos-
sible for the bullet to have gone under the
bed
