WASHINGTON, d. c., Dee. 1.-The

cision being handed down by Justice

The suit was originally instituted by
the railroad company in the Chted
States circuit court for the eastern dls-
trict of Louisiana. That court held the
ticket scalping practice to be wrong
but decided that relief could only be
granted in individual cases, thus requir-
ing separate action for every ohense
committed. Both parties to the contr0-
versy found the decision unsatisfactory
and both appealed to the circuit court

decision of that tribunal was favorable

POSTPONE THAW TRIAL,
Date on Which 1t Will Be Held Is Janu-
airy e-Order Panel of $50
Talesmen.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-On motion of
District Attorney Jerome the second
trial of Harry X. Thaw, for the killing
OF Stanford White ON Madison Square
roof garden in June, 1906, today was
postponed until Monday, January 6. \
special panel of 500 jurors will report
then for duty.
Ihaw was not brought into the court
room but was allowed to stand in the
corridor leading from the prisoners room
at the rear and had an unobstructed
view of the proceedings. His wife, Eve
Ign Nesbit Ihaw was the only member
of the prisoners family present. She
looked iii much better physical condition
than she did a year ago. Her face is
plump now and there is touch of
healthy color in her checks. She seemed
in high spirits.
The proceedings came up before JUS
tice bowling of the supreme court in
the same room where Thaw was first
tried. The defendant was represented
by his new leading counsel, Martin w.
Littlcton and by Daniel O'Reilly and y.
Russell Peabody. Mr. Littleton opposed
the delay and on behalf of the defendant
demanded the right of speedy trial.
Mr.. jerome required the delay on
account of the great difficulty that would
be encountered in securing Il jury with
the prospect of being locked up over the
holidays staring each talesman in the
face.
Justice Bowling said that while he
favored Il speedy trial. he believed time
and expense would he saved by putting
the case over to the first Monday il
January, when the trial is expected to
proceed without further interruption.

HARD TINES? LOOK
At FARMERS Cash.
MEN IN COUNTRY IN 1907 RAISED
CROPS WORTH $7,412,00o,oo0,
SAYS WILSON.
Corn Value Alone Exceeds a Billion Dol
lars, and Hay Comes Next with
an Enormous Total.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Nov. 90
This has been the farmers Thanksgiv-
ing. Regardless of Wall street panics
or clearing house certificates, the men
with the bursting barns can congratulate
themselves on Il years income OF 81
412 100000. That is the total value OF
the farm products of 1907, according to
the annual report of Secretary OF Agri-
cultural Wilson, just issued.
The farmer has more money to spehd
this year and more money to invest than
has n greater money value than any
crop ever grown. 1t is worth 10 per
cent. more than that of last year, ana
twice as much as that of 1889.
Weather s5o,ooo,ooo Day.
The fire fall weather, which city peo-
pie regarded without thought, mare the
farmer rich. Secretary Wilson says that
every good day was worth 2O,UOt,uOO
bushels of corn. 3O,UOOOOO pounds OF
cotton. and the entire wealth production
of the farm was at stake and was de-
pendent upon n crop growing season OF
sufficient length Every day Of fine
weather was worth SoO,UOOOOO to the
farmer and to the nation.
Corn is the chief of crops, and four
iifths of the worlds production is grown
in the United States. In value the crop
is above the high water mark Of 1906,
and on the assumption that the crop VIII
be sold by farmers at an average price
not below the present one. its value Is
estimated at Sl,35OOO0,OOO.
Corn Financial Basis of the World.
Secretary Wilson points out that the
value Of the corn crop of eight such
years as 1907 would pay for duplicating
every 1niIe of steam railroads i'll the
United States and pay for their costly
terminals, rolling stock. and all proper
". In thirteen years it would replace
the present banking power of this coun-
try in banking capital, surplus, deposits
mud circulation, and in seventeen years
1t would replace the banking power of
the void
The hay crop comes second, with a
value If $GOOOOOOOO, and the cotton
crop third with an apparent value only
Il few millions less. The wheat crop is
5la per cent above the average in value,
amounting TO Il little more than $500
100000. During the last nine years
wealth was created on the farms Of this
country to the fabulous amount of SOB,
900 100000
A number Of interesting comparisons
suggest themselves to Secretary Wilson's
:cpcrt. Daily products are much more
valuable than any crop except corn and
are equal 10 onc-thrd of the value Of all
cereals. The poultry products are worth
moro than the wheat, and perhaps as
much ~ the hay The live stock sold
from TIN farms and slaughtered on them
is worth nearly twice as much as the
cotton CTCp.

BIG MINE HORROR
INSPECTORS SAY MEN ENTOMBED
AT FAYETTE CITY, PA, WERE
KILLED BY EXPLOSION.
NAOMI MINE is WRECKED.
Crowd of Agonized Relatives Surround
Shaft and Cry Out for Their
Loved Ones.
CAUSE OF DISASTER IS NOT KNOWN

PITTSBURG. Pa, Dec. 2.-The
number entombed in the Naomi mine of
the United Coal company of this city,
located one and a-half miles back of
Monongahela city, thirty-onc miles from
this place, is now said to be fifty. Hope
that the men will be rescued alive Is
gradually dwindling.
At noon the large force of rescuers
had only succeeded in reaching the nine
teenth entry and no sign of the en-
tombed mine had been found. There
are thirty-scven in all and the men
were working far back in the mine when
the explosion occurred last night.
The work of rescue is progressing
slowly and with much difficulty. Owing
to the poisonous fumes the rescuerS are
unable to remain in the entries more
than fifteen minutes at time.
Keep Big Fan Going.
Several members of the relief crews
are in a prccarious condition from IN
haling the deadly after-damp. The big
air fan is still! going, but little relief -
obtained owing to the heavy volume OF
the after-damp.
The fact that the after-damp prevents
rescue work is taken as an indication
that every man in the mine has persisted.
Under the supervision of Deputy State
Mine Inspector Henry Loutitt score OF
expert miners of the Pttsburg Coal com
pany and the Monongahela River Con
sOlidated Coal company are making ev-
cry effort to reach the entomhcd mon.
The scenes about the mine are pitiful.
Relatives have been impeding the work
of the rescuers and at noon officers ar
rived to keep them away from the PIT
mouth
Every possible precaution is being
taken to keep the big air fan operating
so that in case any of the men are still
alive they will have fresh air.

Mine Inspector Henry Ioutitt gave
out the following statement today;
1T is impossible to say Just what
caused the explosion The mine was re-
markably free Of gas, hut YOU can never
tell about such n thing. Gas is likely
to he found in the most unexpected
places. The force Of the explosion was
terrific and | cannot think that any man
in the Naomi mine escaped with his life.
The mine was practically shattered and

sands of tons of earth blocking the way

unable to get into the mine to any great
