Omaha, May TO- - The presidents
special did not pass through Omaha,
as was expected, but crossed the Mis-
souri, river at Blair, Nebr., giving
Omaha the go by. Therefore the dep
uty sheriff who was waiting to serve
a subpoena on Secretary Loeb in the
suit brought by Miss May Wood was
disappointed. Miss Wood charges
that Secretary Loeb and others tried
to get from her letters said to have
been written by Senator Platt, which
she intended to publish. She de
mands damages amounting to $4,000.

CONDITION or THE CROPS.
Rains Delay Growth of Corn in Sew
eral states-winter Wheat
Heading.

Washington, May 10.--The weekly
crop bulletin issued by the weather
bureau is summarized as follows:
Heavy rains have prevented rapid
progress with corn over large portions
Of Missouri, Illinois and Indiana, bat
elsewhere this work has advanced
satisfactorily, planting having begun
as far north as the southern portions
OF South Dakota, Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin and Michigan. In the southern
states the general condition OF the
crop IL reported as promising, but 1t
is suffering for cultivation over a
large part of the south Atlantic and
east gulf states and in Texas.
Winter wheat Is now heading as far
north as the southern portions of
Kansas and Missouri and In Kentucky.
The general condition of this crop
continues highly favorable in the
states east OF the Rocky mountains.
The weather conditions OF the past
week were not favorable for the COM
pletion OF wheat seeding over the
northern portions Of North Dakota
anu "lHuSoOld, anu carly bpIiUB WHEAT
over the central portion Of the spring
wheat region and in Iowa Is making
only fair progress.
The reports from Kansas Nebraska
and Iowa respecting oats indicate that
this crop in these states Is in fair con-
dition only. but elsewhere the reports
generally range from good to excel
lent. In the southern states oats are
heading and seeding continues in
North Dakota and the northern por-
tion OF the middle Atlantic states.
A large part OF the tobacco crop has
been planted In North Carolina and
planting Eas begun in Tennessee.
Plants are plentiful in Ohio. Kentucky
and Virginia. but transplanting has
not begun in these states. Tho out
look for most fruits, except peaches,
Is favorable. A good hay crop Is gen.
orally promised
