CROP or COTTON

Chicago Report Indicates Slight

COMMERCIAL BANKS REPORT.
According to Statement Georgia Is
the Only State Where lncreaee, over
Last Year Will Not Be shown-crop
of Wheat In Good Condition.

Chicago, Aug. 22-The annual crop
report of the Commercial National
bank of this city was issued Wednes-
day
The wheat crop of 1906 the re-
port says, will be among the largest
and best ever produced.
In what may be termed the north
ern zone of the corn belt, the crop is
large and unusually promising, except
in southern Iowa, where the condition
is spotted and rain needed. In the
southern zone of the same belt the
crop has been affected by dry wealth
er and is backward.
Cotton in the southeastern states
has been damaged by too much rain
making it two or three weeks back
ward in some sections. Taken as a
whole the yield will exceed last years
by fair margin, Georgia excepted. In
the western and southwestern cotton
states, the crop is in fine condition,
and on account Of somewhat increas-
ed acreage, will yield at least 20 and
probably 25 per cent better than last
year. The crop seems singularly free
from insects, weevil or other pests,
and the promise is fine 1t is too
early yet for reliable estimates"

TO BUILD A BATTLESHIP TO

Washington, Nov. 2.-An American
batleship greater In power and eff-
cheney than any warship ahoat will be
authorized at the approaching short
session of Congress. AT the last ses-
sion OF Congress authority was given
TO the naval experts to prepare plans
for battleship which would exceed
in power and speed any heavily ar
mored ship in commission or under
construction In the world and Con-
sress asked that plans be submitted 10
1t at the next session.
When the act of Congress was passed
some criticism OF II was made by naval
officials, because they felt II would not
be desirable to lay before Congress the
plans and specifications for a great
warship. thus making them practically
public property. II is pretty well as
sured now that such plans az may be
submitted to Congress will be of little
use to other governments. The COM
mlttees Of the two branches of Con-
gress will be satisfied that the plans OF
the naval constructors are good, and
that Will be as far as the naval experts
will go into the publication Of their
plans.
The bureau OF naval construction
has been busy for several months I'm
the preparation OF the specifications for
a great battleshlp. They practically
are ready. now When Congress con-
venes. the project for the construction
Of a 20.00O-ton war vessel will be pre-

Mr.. BRYAN ADDRESSES
GREAT CROWD IN OMAHA.

Omaha, Nov, Wv. j. Bryan spoke
tonight at the auditorium In this city
TO crowd which put standing room
at premium, even IN that vast build
Ing, and one which greeted every tell
ing point in his address with vigorous
applause. Mayor Dahlman presided at
the meeting. Despite the fact that MI.
Bryan had delivered nine speeches In
as many towns In the northern part of
the state today, he was In good voice
and showed no sign of fatigue.
Mr.. Bryan referred to recent speeches
made by Vice President Fairbanks,
Secy. Bonaparte and Secy. Taft, dwell
ing especially on the speech made by
Secy. TAFT at Omaha night before last.
He pointed out that all OF them re-
ferred to the trust question, and while
recognizing the importance OF the
subject, presented no remedy He ridi-
culed Mr., Bonaparte's suggestion that
the important thing was to keep the
big trusts from orowdng out the little
ones, the secretary having compared
the big trusts to hogs that crowd the
little ones away from the trough.
Mr.. Bryan said he was reminded OF
the lady who was trying to impress
upon her little boy the sufferings of the
Christian martyrs by showing him a
picture of lions devouring the Chris
tians. The boy looked at the picture "A
moment and then pointed to one lion
and said
why there Is on poor little lion
that Is not getting Bit"
Secy. Bonaparte's concern said he,
seems To be that som Of the small
trusts are not getting their share.
He characterized Secy. Taft as the
selected successor of President Roose-
welt but charged that though the Sec

II Is said that this Congress has
acted injuriously to labor in regard to
the Panama canal and the employment
OF Chinese labor. The eight-hour law
applies to work done directly under

therefore. held that II applies TO the

by Dist, Atty. Langdon to pre-
cent Abraham Ruef from taking pos
session Of the office of the district at
torney and to defeat the action Of the
board of supervisors in ousting Lang
don and appointing Ruef TO the Office
WAS begun before Superior Judge
Seawel today. The courtroom was
crowded and Judge Seawell ordered
the doors leading into Judge Girahams
chambers thrown open to accommo-
date the overflow. Dist. Atty. Lang
don was present and with him were
his assistants, Francis j. Heney,
Charles w. Cobb and Hiram Johnson,
who conducted the examination for
Iangdon. Ruef was represented by
Samuel Shortridge. Henry Ach and
the members OF the board OF super
cisors were representa- by William r.
Baggett and Jack Williams of the city
attorneys Office. Ruef arrived late,
after the proceedings had begun. He
was accompanied by his body guard.
Two separate answers to the COM
plant were presented, one on behalf
of Ruef, the other on behalf OF the
board of supervisors. Each answer
was accompanied by affidayits deny
ing the allegations In Heney's original
complaint which charged felonies to
Ruef and the II supervisors.
johnson stated that by looking over
the answers and afiidavits he found that
they. denied that Langdon was even
de facto district attorney and he de-
sired to obtain afiidavits. Judge Sea-
well suggested that oral evidence
could be taken, whereupon Atty
Johnson said:

This was agreed to, and Ach stated
that he would make the issue on two
points: Whether the board of SUPER.
vlsors had the right to remove Langdon
and whether Langdon had the right to
enjoin the new appointee from taking
office.
Dist. Atty. Iangdon was then placed
on the stand and stated that he had
