For instance, you are a second story

the average second story mans income,
and you carry an insurance of $1,000,
for which you pay the big premium
of $125 year. Now, if you are arrest
ed, the insurance company steps for
ward and hands you $1,000. Thus you
are able to get the best of lawyers for
your defense
Receivers of stolen goods are usu-
ally rich, and it is these men as a rule
who carry on the criminal insurance
business. l know of a criminal insur-
ance company in Philadelphia, another
in New York and a third in st. Louis.
The policies run from $100 up to $4,000,
and the premiums are always enOr-

arrest is SO great.
Besides the criminal insurance con-

q giant negro who is charged with
having killed Matthew Cunningham,
in Trenton, through jealous love of a
woman, has been run to earth last

Though they had their prey surround

merity during the night to risk hand
to hand encounter with the negro in
the darkness or the possibility of be-
ing mired in a quicksand. Even if
the police and farmers renal satis-
fled today only to guard against the
escape ofY the negro from the swamp
which is about a mile in circumfer-
ence, he nAust surrender or starve.

NEW CROP REPORT
! HAS Been ISSUED
Shows A Decrease In Acreage
Of Fourteen Per Cent.
PRICE OF COTTON GOES UPWARD
The Government Report Previously Is
sued Showed a Decrease of Only
ia Per cent--Much Excitement
Shown on Exchanges.

Washington, July 26.-Assistant Sec
retary Hayes today made public the
followoing report to Secretary Wilson
on the acreage of cotton in the south
ern states in 1905, compared with that
planted in 1894:
The crop estimating board of the
department of agriculture has consid-
cred the report issued by the bureauj
of statistics on June 2, relative toE
the acreage planted in cotton in thel
southern staes in 1905, as compared
with that planted in 1904, and has con-
cluded:
First, that a new estimate should
be made on acreage planted and that
the figures in Mr.. Hyde's hands when
making his estimate should be used as
the basis.
Second, That Mr. Hyde with Mr..
Holmes at his elbow prompting him,
made the estimate lower than the
facts at his hand from the reports
from the seven classes of reporters
employed by the bureau warranted
Third, That the board finds, upon
careful consideration Of the reports of
all classes of correspondents and the
agents that the acreage planted in cot
ton this year including the entire sea-
son, should have been estimated at
851 per cent of that planted last
year, equivalent to reduction in
planted acreage as compared With~the
last year of 149 per cent (instead of
ia per cent? or 4791,000 acres-the
estimate of the total acreage planted
this year being 26,999,000 acres.
"The above estimated percentage of
the decrease i'll each of the cotton
growing states is as follows
Virginia, 18; North Carolina, 16;
South Carolina, Ia; Georgia, IA; Flori-
da, 12; alabama, IL; Mississippi, 16;
Louisiana, II; Texas, 16; Arkansas,
19; Tennessoe, 13; Missouri, Is; Ok
lahoma, Is; Indian Territory, IL.
THE averages were made for each
state by each of the four members OF
the board and the comparatively small
disagreements were harmonized almost
wholly by averaging, and the above
results are fully agreed to by each
and every member of the board. Re-
spectfully submitted, Victor Olmstead,
Stephen D. Fessenden, George X
Holmes, w w. Long, crop estimating

''The above findings and report
made under my supervision have my
entire approval w. M. Hayes, as
