The statistics of foreign trade of
the United States show that we are
importing unusually large quantities
and values of agricultural products.
But there is no occasion for alarm by
our farmers. Sugar and tobacco do
not seriously compete with the native
output. and coffee, silk and rubber
are not rivals for anything grown at
home. The American producer who
supplies large part of the world with
breadstuffs, cotton and meat is still
far ahead of the game, and may rest
easy in the assurance that there are
some millions of people abroad who
regard this country as the chief
source of supply for many of the nee
essaries of life.

Radio telegraphy" Ia to be the ON

ID Of conveying communications
This has been decided by the interna-
tiona2 conference in Berlin, which by
the way has resulted In another sub
stantial testimonial to the influence
exerted by the United States. An
agreement has been reached by the
delegates, who signed Saturday the
convention which is to regulate the
use of the wireless system. Dificulty
existed in the beginning because Of
conflicting claims of rival inventors
whose devices are in competition with
one another. The representatives OF
the United States from the beginning
took the position that communications
between ships at sea and between
ships and shore should be entirely free
and Independent Of any rivalry among
inventors. There was animated and
earnest discussion, but the outcome is
acceptance of the American view by
most of the members of the confer
ence, though several governments
make reservations intended to protect
existing agreements with wireless tel
egraph companies. The conference
had to deal with novel question
since wireless telegraphy has never
before been the subject of interna
tional consideration, but 1t would
seem an equitable decision wal
reached, and one in harmony with the
increasing spirit of international goot
will. The period of ratification of the
treaty embodying these agreements
will end July 1. 1908.

SUIT OVER MANAWA DISASTER
Action VIII BE Brought by Father of
Miss Lena RdsenbIum, one
of the Victims.

Suit against the Manawa Amusement
company and the Omaha & Council Bluffs
Street Railway company, growing out of the
disaster at the Kursaal on the night of the
Fourth of July, will be begun in district
court within a few days by Henry Rosen-
blum, father Of Lena Rosenblum, one OF
the young women who lost her life. An APP
plication for the appointment of Mr.. Rosen-
blum as administrator OF the estate Of his
daughter has been made in county court
preparatory to the suit.
The case will raise and, will decide several
mooted questions in regard to the disaster.
One of these questions is as to whether
or not the KursaAl is located In Iowa or
Nebraska and another is regarding who is
legally responsible for the accident.
Ed P. Smith, who IS Mr. Rosenblum's at
torney, said Thursday be was OF the opin-
ton the KuFsaal, is located in Iowa and he
believed a resyrvey OF .,the, locality, which
will be made will show this to be the case,
He said the suit would probably be brought
in accordance withJthis Theory. This, point
is important, as the laws OF Nebraska limit
the liability in case of death to 5000. In
Iowa there is no such restriction, and in
1 case it is found the resort was located In
Iowa the suit will probably be for $4,000.
The petition will allege faulty construc'
ton OF the platform which gave way. The
street car company, as the original lessee
will be held responsible for the alleged
weak construction, and The Manawa Amuse
ment company for allowing 1t to be USED
| in it's unsafe condition.
| , A number OF similar suits will be brought
against the two corporations by the estate:
of those who lost their lives.

FIRST CAR OF new WHEAT
G2stn Grades No. ?, weighs sixty
Two and calls for seventy
Two Cents.

The FIRST car Of new wheat to arrive
in Omaha was received Wednesday by the
Updike Grain company, and Was placed
on sale Thursday morning on the sample
Ia bies at the Omaha Grain exchange. The
price asked was y cents. The wheat,
which came from Tobias, was of a fine
quality, grading No , hard and Weighing
even sixty-two pounds to the bushel
I'VE have ten more cars on the road
Just like it," said c. L. BabcCck Of the
I-pdike Grain company, and it Is all from
the country south and southwest Of Lincoln.
The crop is without doubt good in quality
and quantity. We had a letter from our
agent at Tobias this morning. and he said
a piece OF 100 acres near Tobias which
had just been threshed, had yielded forty
two bushels to the acre.
A peculiar thing about the wheat this
year is that about half the grains are a
golden yellow, though red seed was
planted On first thought one would say
It had been raised from mixed seed, but
the elevator men say this is not so. Mr..
Babcock thinks some peculiar climatic
condition is responsible for the color.
Some of the dealers predict the farmers
will not sell much wheat at present prices.
They are being offered 20 cents for wheat
at Ouands WHICH IlltdHS SNhlNtig lloi
than 80 cents at some Of the producing
points
A. H. Bewsher Of the omaha Elevator
company says all the first wheat shipped
will be OF the same fine quality as that
received by the Updike company, but that
after a few rains it will not grade up Sc
well. This is because the farmers refuse
to stack their grain but think to thresh
it from the shock before rain comes, and
are disappointed. Mr. Bewsher thinks the
tendency IL growing each year among
the farmers to stack their wheat
Charles T. Neale has just returned from
Kansas City, where new wheat is pouring
in from the Kansas fields. All the re-
celpts there are grading high. says Mr.
Neale, and the threshing reports show .
much better yield than was anticipated
Mr. Neale estimates the Kansas crop a
70. 10000 bushels, while, the general esti
mate a month4ago was 100000 to $780, 90
