BoWEN-LooMls CASE ENDED
Charges Declared Not Worthy Of Con-

Washington, June 21.-It can be
stated on official authority that the
Loomis-Bowen case not only has been
settled finally, SO far as the adminis-
tration is concerned. but settled In IA
yor Of Mr.. LOOMS. The charges
against Mr.. LOOMS, for which Minis
ter Bowen practically stood, are de-
clared to be without sufficient founda-
ton in fact to be worthy of further
consideration. Secretary Taft's repora
to the president shows this. Soma
criticism of Mr.. LOOMS was made ut
the meeting OF the cabinet Tuesday,
but it was not of nature to reflect
In any way upon his integrity.
Mr. Bowen will be arraigned for In
subordination, criticised for his action
in the pending case, and, finally,
dropped from the diplomatic service Of
the country.

during the Spanish war know what
this disease is, and that ordinary REM

Crop Bulletin.

For the week ending June 10, 1905,
Des Moines, Iowa.
The week was above normal in tenn
peratnre, with abundant sunshine for
vigorous growth OF all crops. Gondi-
tions were favorable for the cultiva-
tion Of corn, except in limited areas
saturated by heavy rainfall in preced-
ing week, Very good progress has
been made in cleaning opt the weedy
cornfelds, and probably four-ffths Of
the acreage planted has been fairly
well cultivated. The stand is gener-
ally below normal, and the stage of
growth is very uneven on account of
replanting; but, as whole, the crop Is
as promising as at the corresponding
date last year, with more favorable
temperature of soil and air to promote
growth.
The small grain crops are we'll adj
yanced, and generally heading out,
There are numerous reports of rank
growth Of wheat and oats, but as yet
damage by rust is not indicated except
in oats in some of the southern coun-
ties. Glover is heavy, and the early
harvest OF that crop is in progress.
The meadows and pastures are unusu-
ally good. Potatoes and garden truck
are thriving. The yield of strawber-
ries is much above the average. In
the northern district apples are doing
well, but not promising in the south.

Printer Gets Jugged.

f. p. Simmons, printer, who has
been more or less in a state of intoxi-
cation ever since arriving in the city
a few days ago, was arrested for the
second time during his soiourn in the
city this morning.
He was gathered in by the police the
first time last Tuesday night, and, up
on his appearance in court, was fined
50, with the privilege of release on his
own recognizance, while he went to
work and earned the money. But, it
seems, that, instead of going to work.
he spent most of his time trying TO
work some one for drink, and so he
was again jugged, to sober up.
He will be summoned before Judge
Moores this evening and. from the
present outlook, he will not get off with
a very light sentence, for it hurts the
feelings of the court to be worked. 3,
