side world. There was communication by telephone. 1t has also been ascer- tained, 1t is alleged, that there was an- other person, aside from those engaged in tabulating the reports, who could have been in possession of the figures if he so desired. This man is an om- cia. of the Department of Agriculture. but he is not MT. Hyde, chief statisti- clan, nor is he MT. Holmes, assistant statistician, now under suspension.
 Those conductirg g the investigator are somewhat concerned because they have received no word from MT. Hyde, who sailed for Europe on Tuesday June 6, and who has been asked by Secretary Wilson to return.
 AS is usual when investigations or this sort are in progress in a depart ment of the Government, reports are current of loose methods and question able transactions in other lines than those affected by the subject matter Of the inquiry It is broadly hinted that before the interest in the present in- yestigation fsubsides it will have been discovered that there has been 'pront shaving" between persons in Wasn- ington and New York speculators in other things than cotton. Members of Congress say they are convinced there has been manipulation of other crop reports.
 Other Reports Manipulated.
 It is believed MT. Cheatham has a great mass of information bearing mol only on cotton crop reports, but upon reports generally of the condition o1 crops in the United States.
 MT. Cheatham is also said to be ir possession of letters and other docu' ments which indicate that the depart ment figures were known in New York long before they were furnished to the press for general distribution. One story is that in one instance $1,200 was paid for the information. If the per sons who purchased 1t were the first to rceive the information they had g bargain, and might have cleared hun dreds of thousands of dollars in ont day, because there was a cataclysm 1T cotton as soon as the figures were giver general publicity.

CURE FOR IvY-PoIsoNING.
Washing in Hot Water and Anointini

Washing in Hot Water and Anotnting
 With Grindelia Recommended.
 This is the season when the person who takes woods rambles is likely to suffer for days thereafter with swollen wrists and itching hands, sometimes suffering real agony, from ivy-poison- ing. Poison oak and ivy are much like the copperhead snakes in the hills in that both seem to try hard to torture human beings with their poison and will do so If they come too close, es- pecially in the spring.
 A physician once said that there was nothing that would cure ivy-poisoning quickly. but that doctoring it and let ting it alone took about equal time, so he advised washing the parts affected quite often and letting 1t take its course. Now. the cure consists in a simple adherence to two things-pre- venting the spreading of the disease and drying 1t up quickly.
 It's spread can he prevented only hv washing freonentlv with hot water: its cure hv anointing the affected narts with tincture Trindelia, pro"urahle in any drug store. as soon as the skin hs~ ~oo- Sried rva-~ ~~-,~ ~utAt ~No"' . ---los, Ro---Ar-~~ N@4A'~ S.-s~S~ .'- vIs ~.,-e e --~'H -~H tt s~~~ Ss~~- at--rsA ,tnA~-~-Nf~ ''~A'~~ hv v'>'-'- .----~tso-tn-- R~ a~-1 n~1t~Ae T~'- .---.os- t- elN N..+ tA Fz -~' -- --oI' 't -Nn"'s N~

They handled him rough ly, carried him through. the same threatening with pistols and knives but he told nothing. Governor Patton asked who had given them this tnfor- nation about his having this money One of the men called the name of Simon. A tall slim, ugly African ap- peared in the doorway. He was the plantation blacksmith, a most valuable negro, but drunkard and wicked bad man. Governor Patton being fond oi and having confidence In his slaves could not believe that any one of then would betray him into the hands of the enemy. Simon stood with bowed head Governor Patton said: simon, let me see your face" He partially raised ms head and was asked: Who has always been your friend?" He replied, "Old marster."
