Feeding Apples to Cows.

At this time of the year, when the
small apples from the orchard are be.
ing sorted out and disposed of as by
products, it is practice for many
farmers to feed some of the wormier
apples and small apples to the cows.
A limited amount fed each day will
prove of great help to the animals, al
though there is no great amount of
nutriment in the fruit. The great
value comes from the presence Of
the fruit acid in apples; yet in the
feeding of apples great care is needed.
Large apples should not be given to
cows whole; in fact, it is better If all
apples of medium to large size are
cut in two before being fed Many a
cow has been choked to death on large
apples. One boy, known to the writer,
started to feed hungry cow apples.
She was so eager for the fruit that
she tried to swallow one whole to
make room for some more. An apple
of unusual size became fixed in her
throat. It was only by vigorous work
ON the part of the owner Of the COW
that she was saved. He put both
hands on her throat and worked the
apple down whole. A good way to
feed apples is in the form of pomace,
which Is the remainder of the apples
after the cider has been pressed out
Of the ground mass. This pomace con-
tains q small amount of nitrogen, a
very small amount Of potassium and
some phosphorus. The vegetable
sugars are also present. The phos-
phorus is to a large extent locked up
in the seeds, and is not likely to be
liberated unless the seeds with the
other pomace, is mixed with hay.

went TO the offices of the company in
the Hall building to-day found the
doors locked and the following notice
in bold letters posted conspicuously:
'Good-by, you suckers. good-by."
The American Mercantile Company is
said to have con here from st. Joseph,
Mo. Its business consisted of writing
contracts with small investors, who OBJ
ligated themselves to pay the associa-
tion certain sums of money for eighty
weeks, at the end of which the investor
was to receive his money back with a
very liberal rate of interest.
The company's first contracts were
just beginning to mature and patrons
were demanding their money. Three
women. who had paid in 81 a week for
eighty weeks were among the disap-
pointed visitors at the offices to-day.
They had come to cash their contracts
for $3.50 each, the amount they had been
told they could draw.
From the volume of the concerns
mail it is estimated that the suckers
number 1000 or more and they are
scattered throughout the West. In
quiries as TO the standing of the COM
pany have come recently from San
Francisco and Los Angeles, indicating
that the concern was operating as far
West as the coast.
Manager Shipley cannot be found.
P. c Phillips, attorney for the COM
pany, said to-day that he had not seen
any Of its members or agents for about
three weeks and he had no idea how
much money was outstanding on con-
tracts. Phillips said that he believed
that the company could partially meet
its obligations.

CHICAGO, April 11-One of the

overwhelming evidence of the guilt of

conviction of all of them is certain. 1
am astonished that men of unquestion-
ed ability and business sagacity
should so far forget themselves and
their duties to the civil government
as to commit such surprisingly flag
rant offense against the Federal law.
Their guilt is established beyond the
shadow of q doubt. They cannot es-
cape punishment.
They have brought powerful pres

When these trunks were opened the

city or in near vicinity of 1t seems the
most plausible theory. The fact htat
he was seen on Montgomery avenue
Friday afternoon by Louis Cuneo and
Joseph Bacigalupi, who have known
him for a long time, together with
other circumstances, leads Captain
Burnett to believe the alleged mur-
derer is still in this city.
Louis Cuneo. who is bartender at
the Owl saloon. 311 Montgomery
street, knew Torturici for many years.
The fugitive was a frequenter of the
saloon and had been in there but few
days before the crime was committed
Torturici was known to. him as Peter
Torch. When Cuneo learned Saturday
that this was the man wanted by the
police he made known the fact of his
acquaintanceship to several of his
Later he and Bacigaiupi were sum-
moned before Captain Burnett to tell
their stories.
Cuneo says he was standing in front
of the saloon Friday afternoon about
4 O'Clock. when Torturici came walk
ing down Montgomery avenue He
held his head up. but as soon as
Cuneo's eye caught him he cast his
head down as if to evade being seen.
II thought il unusual" said Cune0
yesterday, for Torturict to pass with
out saluting me. 1 did not pay any
more attention to the incident until
the next day, when I learned that he
was the man the police were hunt
ing.
There was not the slightest chance
of my mistaking him. He had been
coming to the saloon a few times a
week to get drinks / also worked with
him at the American Can Company s
factory.
'Torturici was rather peculiar fell
low. never saying much He did not
speak very good English and he never
seemed to improve in American ways
One particular feature, which a per-
son who knew him would recognize
him by, was that his left eyebrow ap-
peared to be higher up than the other.
He was not a man you would get fa-
miliar with. as he talked but little.
During the time he was working for
the can company he was offended by
other employees, but would never de-
fend himself.
"a week ago Sunday he came in
here with Salvatore Maranda and
played game of cards. Torturici was
stuck for the game and he was given
credit for the drinks. Maranda was

M Riley, manager of August Carls
general store.
Riley admits that the brush was
bought there, but declares that 1T was
not purchased by Torturici. He says
brush the day after the murder. When
the news reached the store that blood
hounds were being used the Italian
snatched the brush and hurried away.
Riley knows Torturici and his wife
well. He declares that neither OF
them bought the brush. Detective
Harrison, who located the store, is In
cIined to believe that Riley is holding
something back from the police.
The funeral of Biaggio Vilardo will
take place tomorrow from Castagnet-
to's undertaking parlors at 643 VAL
lejo street. The body will be Inferred
at Holy Cross Cemetery.
Chief Dinan attempted to locate
Governor Pardee yesterday to arrange
for the offering of a reward for the
capture of Pietro Torturici. The Po-
lice Department will give $3.50 If the
State will offer 5000. The matter has
not yet been arranged.
The police will search the schooner
Mizpah, due to sail for Alaska to-
morrow with a number of italians
hound for the salmon canneries.
While it is not thought that Torturici
will attempt to escape on the vessel.
Captain Burnett will take no chances.
The eight suspects who were ar
rested shortly after Vilardo's body
,, was found are still held at the City
prison. The police are handicapped
in gathering evidence against them
! because of the dread of the Malta
that reigns in the Latin quarter. But

crime.
The men are silent when questioned
about the affair. Captain Burnett par

to-day that will cause that body to

CONDITIONS IN TIIE SOUTH.

A New York business man who
has just returned from an extended
trip throughout the south states that
he found business condition gener-
ally in a very satisfactory condition
in that section, The advance in the
price of cotton has produced a very
salutary effect and the prevailing
feeling is one Of confidence in the
future,
Money is an easy business in a
prosperous condition, 1t is stated
that there is a curtailment Of cotton
acreage Of about II per cent, The
condition of the growing crop is
highly satisfactory and the outlook
most promising
The cotton mills are doing a large
and a very satisfactory business, A
novel trade development in this con-
ucction is the fact that several Of the
southern mills have made a speciality
of studying the requirements of the
orient, particularly Japan and China,
with a view of conforming their pro-
ducts to the requirements Of those
countries. 1t is stated that one of
the large cotton mills has made a
feature Of this trade, and its entire
output for a period of two years has
been fully contracted for. The fact
that the styles Of cotton goods de-
sired by the orient are not subject
to the same changes as in the United
States renders this class of trade Of
a very staple character.
One cannot be otherwise than I'M
pressed with the elimination Of
the old sectional spirit under the
guidance Of the younger business
element in the south. A spirit Of

LAST CARDS MONDAY
Considered Impossible to Agree Upon
Cession of SahkaIin Island, the Pay
ment of Indemnity or the Disposal
of interned War Ships.

Portsmouth, n. H, Aug. 17.-Five
articles of the possible Treaty of
Washington" remained to be consid-
cred when the peace ENJOYS resumed
their session at the navy yard this
morning, as follows: The cession of
Sahkalin island upon which it had
been impossible to agree and which
had been passed over; indemnity;
limitations upon the Russian sea pow
er; the surrender of interned war
ships, and the grant of fishing rights.
Remuneration for the cost of the
war is believed to be number 9, the
first article to come up today. The
final struggle is close at hand. When
the remaining points of possible
agreement are demonstrated an ad-
journment will be taken probably
until Monday, when the plenipoten-
tiaries will show their last cards.
The morning discussion developed
ment. Both sides are obdurate, and
neither would bulge or yield an inch.
An agreement being found impossi-
BILE, the ENJOYS decided to spread up
On record their respective views and
proceed to the consideration of Ar
ticle 10, which provides for the sur
render to Japan of the Russian waB
ships interned in far eastern waters.

cludes the question of Japan's REIN
