BAD YEAR FOR VEGETABLES
Cold Spring and Dry August Caused
Light Crop.

That the prices OF vegetables and
fruit will be high this winter is evident
from the scarcity at present In the To-
cal markets aud from the absence OF
many varieties In the stocks OF veg
etable dealers on the street who last
year had all kinds OF garden truck TO
sell. The cold spring and the dry
weather OF the last month are given
as the reason for the poor crops.
Crops OF all kinds are at least one
month behind those of last year. On
the higher farms the garden produce
In many cases Is backward. Some OF
the lowland farms are doing well but
cannot be relied upon to supply the
great demand.

THE BROWNSVILLE CASE.
At Least Eight Senators Will Sign the
Majority Report.

Washington, Dec. 1.-The Senate
committee on military affairs held a
meeting today for further considera-
ton OF the Brownsville case.
The committee will report its find
ings on the Brownsville investigation
some time next week. At least eight
of the members who will make up the
majority will report that it was I'm
doubtedly the soldiers who "Shot up"
Brownsville. Senator Foraker will be
joined by Senator Buckley in report
ing that the evidence does not show
that the soldiers were engaged in the
Brownsville riot and there is bare
possibility that Senator Scott and SEN
ator Hemenway will sign this minority
report. The four Democrats Of the COM
mittee will sign the majority report
and will probably be joined therein by
Senator's Warren. Lodge. Warner end
