DECIDED NOT TO OPEN
hi Peoria National Bank, of Which
N. C. D~Ougherty Was President,
to Go Into Liquidation.

Peoria, H., Oct. 7.-As a direct result
of the indictment of N. c. Dougherty
for forgery, the directors of the Peoria
national bank, of which he was presi.
dent, announced shortly after midnight
that they decided to discontinue bust
ness and would call in the comptroller
of the currency to wind up the affairs
of the institution. The meeting of di-
rectors lasted all evening behind closed
doors. 1t was admitted that a disas-
trous run would be inevitable, and the
only recourse was to liquidate at once.
The loan of 100000 by the Peoria
clearinghouse was tied up in such
wise that it could not be accepted. 1t
was learned that quiet Withdrawals
from the bank had been going on all
day, most of the calls coming from
banks in neighboring towns. The bank
was capitalized at $780, 900.

EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS
While Not Quite So Actfve-Still
Larger Than Expected.

New York, Oct. 7.-Bradstreet's
weekly review says:
While not SO active as in recently
preceding weeks, the volume of trade
still exceeds expectations. Contributing
to this are better reports from retail
lines, necessitating recorders of reason
able goods, fall festivals, charging
crop movement and a continued i'm
mense turnover in idustrial lines. Com
plants as t. car shortages increase,
the grain, coal, coke, iron and lumber
trades all reporting congestion from
this cause. Undiminished activity is
witnessed in the iron trade, demand for
crude and finished products surprising
previous years at this period. Higher
levels of future cost, particularly. as to
coke and ore, confront these trades.
Collections for the country as a whole
are good. Money is still moving to the
country and while in liberal supply
for ordinary trade purposes, higher
quotations at home and abroad seem
certain. Bank clearings testify to new
heights being reached for this season
of the year.

no REPUBLIC For NORWAY
Attempted Agitation III Favor Of q

Christiania, Get. 4.-TEe attempt to
create agitation in favcr Of a Norwe-

Of d republican form OF government. but
SO far the appeal has me- with no re-
Spouse.
The commercial and Industrial inter-
ests appear to desire no disturbance
Of the existing order Of things.
At an important meeting here of rep
reseentatives of the commercial and
shipping interests, it was unanimously
resolved to present an address to the
storthing, declaring that the submits
sion Of the question Of a change in the
constitution to a plebiscite would great

ests. The country, the resolution said,
wanted to return to a fixed and as
sured situation, which would only be
possible by limiting the national efforts
to the platform adopted by the storth-
ing June Z, the day the decision was
reached to separate from Sweden,
which favored the maintenance Of the
monarchical constitution.
An address was drawn up e%mbodying
the foregoing, and in addition asking
the storthing to insure tranquility by
the speedy election of a king. 1t was
presented to the storthing by a special
committee.

Fertilizer For Glover Fields.

There is no doubt in my mind of TIE
effect of fertilizers applied to wheat
upon the seeding of clover made the
following spring. On my own farm,
where I have shut off the drill in seed
ing wheat so as to SOW no fertilizer, the
effect was not only very noticeable on
The wheat. but was even noticeable in
the second growth of clover the fol-
lowing year. AS a matter of fact, a
great many people use fertilizer on
wheat largely for the effect which this
fertilizer will produce on the clover
seeded the following spring. On .
light. sandy loam, l would use a ferti-
lizer that contains a comparatively high
per cent. of potash, ss most light soils
are deficient in potash, and the clover
plant is a large consumer of this ele-
ment. Take a fertilizer that analyses
something like l per cent. ammonia,
8 per cent. phosphoric acid and ) per
cent. actual potash, would, in my judy
ment. be a good brand for this light
soil with the express idea of benefiting
the clover sceding.-Cor. Orange Judd

irridescent trail of lights, streets
fringsd with enthusiastic subjects, IL
Elimination, music, the din Of many
voices and crowds that were larger
than those of any other year but one
since his first visit.
But if there was enthusiasm, there
was also hoodlumism in a greater de-
gree than at any other parade. Hordes
Of negroes and young white men,
equipped with horns and bells and con-
fetti, banded together and forced their
way through the crowds. At times
their roughness amounted to assault
and battery on helpless men and wom-
en-. The crowds were SO dense that
the police were powerless to maintain
order. The scenes of last night will
have much to do in putting a stop to
the annual pageant.

Ignorance and the lack of informa-
ton has cost the southern farmer many
dollars, and in many ways. First, be-
cause we have not had the practical.
chemical knowledge of our soils. We
fave spent millions of dollars in sup
plying our land with fertilizing mate
rial that they were not deficient in
For instance, some of our lands are
well supplied with nitrogen or am
monia, especially after certain crops
have been grown the previous year.
Others contain potash or lime, or acid
phosphate. Still, as a rule, the farmer
will buy a complete fertilizer for his
crop, when only certain material is
needed, thus spending large sums of
money for material with which his soils
are already supplied.
I'VE have wasted time and money in
poor preparation of soils for u crops,
and in the improper cultivation of same.
"The lack of knowledge in judging
live stock and the proper care of same
has also been expensive to the south
ern farmer.
AAOlHCi tnlu6 thdl hdo COob tho
farmers sums of money is the habit
we have of going from home to buy
DUR mules, hay, corn, meat and other
things we could SO easily raise at
home; for instance. Edgecombe county
raised last year about $4,000 bales OF
cotton that sold for about one million
dollars, and she spent the same year
for mules, meat, hay, corn and fertiliz-
ers about three-ffths of this whole
amount, or $500, 900. Not only did we
paw out this large amount for some
thing we could have raised at home.
but the over-production of cotton cost
US nearly an amount equal to this, the
difference in price we could have got

sufficiently to have enabled us to raise
these things at home.-E. l.: Daught-

UnasnnI Exposure.

Eureka, CAL, Oct. Fast upon the
rocks, one and one-half miles south Of
Point Gorda, the San Francisco & Port

Randall, lies q total wreck. Its 93 pas
sengers and crew of SIS men are safe.
Some are on board of the steamer
Pomona, en- route to San Francisco,
but the greater number are in Eureka
having arrived on the tug Ranger and
the steamer Vanguard. The captain
and most of the crew are in Eureka.
The steamer passengers suffered
much from exposure. and a number OF
them tainted when they realized Their
peril.
J.. F. Wickman, of San Francisco,
who arrived here on the Vanguard,
gave the following account OF the
wreck.
1.-THE first bump was as though we
were rushing over stones. There was
a short interval of quiet, then a severe
rumbling, throwing the boat from side
to side. I jumped from my berth and
opened the door. 1t was raining, and
the deck was apparently deserted,
thought we had been struck by some
heavy sea. Just then I heard some bells
ringing and loud talk and knew thai
we were in for it.
II saw officers and members of the
crew awakening the passengers. Some
women were in a state of excitement,
After making a poor attempt at dress
ing, they appeared to gain control OF
themselves, when assured by the off,
GERS that they had plenty of time.
Il left the ship in the second boat
We stood by the steamer according tc
instructions from the captain, when q
heavy fog shut down and we put oui
to sea. Two hours later we sighted the
st. Paul and shortly after the Ranger
hove in sight"
Capt. Randall says the disaster wa;
due to the thick fog and attaches
blame to no one.
The vessel will prove a total wreck
The cargo, 1,10O tons of miscellaneous
freight, will also be a total loss.

Casting Traditions Away.

~, II you are keeping close watch on
ene current of Italian politics You can
appreciate the fact that the vatican
ana the Quirinal are casting traditions
10 the winds. Only the other day the
caole told US that Victor Emmanuel
was making efforts to have Bishop
bonomelli of Cremona occupy a seat
IN the Italian parliament. The scholar
~ prelate is known for his friendship
Tor the house of Savoy His counsel is
at the service of the king, but bishops
may not transfer their seats of resi-
Gence without consulting the holy see
80 Mgr. Bonomelli will have to re-
man outside the political breastworks
Wflle longer. The incident. however.
SHOWS how deeply the king values the
ADVICE of the bishop. 1t was but few
DAYS ago that Italy rubbed its ewes
When 1t read the details of Cardinal
Ferrarfs visit to Victor Emmanuel and
MS queen. In quite another way if
means that both sides are anxious to
get together. When the Duke of Genoa
sent his generous subscription to a
fund for the erection of a monument
to Plus X in his native Riese, he did
something that the pOntiff cannot soon
forget. These little courtesies contrib
ute much to the solution of distressing
