Far Reaching Result of War
Special Dispatch to Evening Capital

Fresno. Cal, Sept. 21.-The war
between Russia and Japan has had an
unforeseen effect upon the raisin indus
try of California and the owners of
vineyards in this part of the state
have great difficulty to overcome the
complications arising from the lack of
japanese grape piokers. japanese are
almost exclusively used for picking
and sorting the grapes used in making
raisins In former years there was al
ways an abundance of japanese for
that work, but when the war broke
out SO many of the men returned to
Japan to serve in the army against
the Russians that Japanese help OF
every kind became extremely scarce
on the coast. Now, that the picking
season is on, the growers experience
great difficulty in securing the requir-
ed help for bringing in the harvest.

Pig Iron Becoming Scarce.
Special Dispatch to Evening Capital

Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. 2l.-An order
for pig iron sent out by one of the
large finishing mills in this city was
returned the other day with the re-
mark that owing to the great demand
for rails and structural work the mill
which had formerly turned out pig
metal aud steel billets, is now making
rails An investigation shows that
many of the big mills at Clarion and
Duquesne, which formerly made bill
lets, are now turning out rails. The
managers of the losal finishing works
are becoming alarmed over the scarcity
of pig iron and rough steel and fear
that it will seriously interfere with
their ability to turn out their orders.
1t is stated on good authority that not
enough pig iron and steel billets will
be turned out each week for some
time to come to supply the demand.
An Investigation has been ordered and
in a few days the local mills will
probably decide upon some plan tC
remedy the trouble.

FAKE, SAYS CHEATHAM
CLAIMS COTTON CROP STATISTICS
 ARE FRAUDULENT.
Secretary of Growers Association De- clares He VIII write tO President
 Roosevelt Regarding Alleged Heguiarfties.

New York. June 6.-Richard Cheat
 ham. of Atlanta. secretary of the
 Southern Cotton Growers Association,
 who is in this city, has declared his intention of calling President Roose- velt's attention to what he considers gross Irregularities in both the prepar- alton and the publication of the gov enment cotton report issued last Fri day. Mir Cheatham will make no charges of bribery or any other crime, but his intention is to ask for a rigid l investigation, and that the resignation 1 of one of the important employees in the I statistical bureau in the department of agriculture be demanded. It Is under
 stood he charges some one in the de-
 partment with having manipulated the figures and given them in advance of publication to certain brokers for use in depressing the cotton market.
 The Southern Cotton Growers Asso- citation Is an organization of planters and Southern brokers whose object Is
 to regulate so far as possible the | acreage of cotton and to protect the planters and other Southern cotton in- | terests from manipulation of the mar ket tending to depress the price of the | staple. Officers of the Association de- | clare they have as many experts as the | Department of Agriculture and make every effort to secure the most trust
 worthy information regarding the con-
 dition of the crop. For several months
 the statistics gathered by the Associa- | ton have been at variance with those
 emanating from Washington, and the | officers of the Association. together | with brokers and cotton merchants in | this city, have conducted a secret in- vestigation in the hope of ascertain ing the reasons for the discrepancy. A prominent broker. 1t is now as- serted, has gathered the most impor- tant of documentary evidence in the
 case. From employees of the Depart
 ment of Agriculture. he says, some of whom are in the habit of making fre- Quent visits to this city. he learned that advance information in regard to
 the reports could be secured. He fol- | lowed up this line by inquiring wheth- CT or not the report would not be changed. and his agents were success ful in this endeavor, also receiving let ters from at least one prominent firm
 of cotton brokers in this city who had such an understanding with at least one official.
 MT Cheatham was notified of the dis coVeries by telegraph and made a hur-
 ried trip to this city. After many
 hours spent in consultation he journey ed to Washington, remained a few hours ana returned to NeW horh' say ing he desired signatures to a docu-
 ment in his possession.
 It Is said MT. Cheatham will charge that the figures of the Bureau of Sta tistics have been manipulated fin the interests of a certain bearlsh element in the market here and this charge
 will include not only the furnishing of advance information pertaining to the government figures, but also falsifica- tion of these figures.
 In the case of the report issued last
 Friday, he will charge that plans were laid month in advance.

,n4.rra,,onaI Cotton Congress.

Manchester. June 6.-The inter- national cotton congress today length fly discussed plans for preventing spectators from influencing the price of cotton. H. II. Hale. an American delegate, said that the best protection would be the encouragement of the immigration of the laborIng classes to the Southern States. where there was boundless opportunity for employment in the cotton fields.
 He added that the true solution of the problem was the production of such large crop of cotton as to remove the menace of spectators. He pointed out that the American cotton associa- tions had not reached the point of or ganizing for a restriction of produc- tion of American cotton. Their views, however. were broadening and as the export trade increased. the United states doubtless would be more ready to join the international organization.

ALFONSO IN LONDON.
Metropolis Entertains the Young King
 of Spain.

of Spain.
 London, June 6.-King Alfonso of Spain saw the sights of the Metropolis today in typical London weather. Rain fell all day long accompanied by a chill east wind. The limp decorations gave the entire city bedraggled and forlorn appearance
 The young monarch, however, car- ried out long program with evident enjoyment. After receiving the diplo- matic corps at Buckingham Palace King Alfonso attended mass at the Roman Catholic Cathedral at West minister. Later he visited Westmin- ster Abbey. lunched with the Duke and Duchess of Connaught and was an in- terested spectator of the military tour nament at Agricultural Hall. He gave reception to Spanish residents and to the Anglo Spanish and American- Spanish commercial bodies of London at the Spanish Embassy and paid a surprise visit to tn House of Parlia- ment which. however, had adjourned before his arrival.
 The day concluded with a state ban. quet at Buckingham Palace, which was attended by members of the royal par ty, the diplomatic corps and practically all the notables in political England. Count Wolff ff-Metternich, the German Ambassador, took in Mrs. Whitelaw Reid, and whitelaw Reid, the Ameri- can Ambassador. took in the Duchess of Portland. These were seated to the immediate right of King Alfonso. Oth- CTS present were Count Mensdorff. the Austro- Hungarian Ambassador, the Duchess of Marlborough. the Spanish Ambassador and the Duchess of Rox- burghe. King Edward proposed the health of King Alfonso. A concert was given in the blue drawing room at which the artistes included Mme. Melba. Miss Muriel Foster and Enrico CaruSO.

FINAL WORD NOT SPOKEN.
Nothing Definite Yet From Emperor as
 in Peace

St. Petersburg, June 6-Beyond the statement of the advisability of conffd- ing the opening of peace negotiations to President Roosevelt in the event that EmperT Nicholas decided that the time has arrived to end the struggle, no definite announcement can be made at this hour regarding the result of Foreign Minister Lamsdorff's audience with the Emperor on the subject of Count CassinFs despatch communicat- ing the Presidents practical tender, of good offices.
 It can, however, be stated in addi- tion that Grand Duke Alexander Mi- chaelovitch, the Emperor's brotner-in- law, who undoubtedly exercises a greater personal influence with his majesty than any other member of the imperial family and who until the dis aster to the Russian fleet was the most uncompromising advocate of war to the last ditch, has joined Grand Duke Vladimir, uncle of the Emperor, in counselling the conclusion of peace.
 Grand Duke Vladimir at recent family council. while urging the futili- ty of continuing the struggle stoutIy maintained that the loss of Manchuria and even of a portion of eastern Siberia would not mean the ruin of Russia's prestige. but that she could continue to grow in influence and power just as Great Britain did after the loss of her American colonies
 Another important convert made by the advocates of peace is Admiral AIexieff. With Grand Duke Alexan- der Michaelovitch. Grand Duke Vladf- mir and Admiral Alexieff on the side of peace, the backbone of what has been denominated the war party seems to have broken. Nevertheless the final word rests with the Emperor himself.
