Wheat Crop Will Be Big.

Wheat has improved in condition
during the past month, according to
the state crop report issued by the
secretary of state. The report says
that crop conditions, while not up to
the general average owing to the cold
weather of April, May and June, are
much improved, and that the latter
part of June was favorable to corn,
potatoes, sugar beets and meadows.
Correspondents report scarcely any
injury by Hessian fly and rust, and
the prospect at present is that there
will be better yield per acre than
in 1906, and of better quality. The
average estimated yield of wheat is
estimated at IA bushels, and rye is es-
timated to yield the same The condi-
tion of corn is IS per cent, beans 81,
potatoes SO, sugar beets SS. Glover
is estimated at 80 per cent. and tim
othy looks like a good crop. Except
in Oceana, Benzie and Mason coun.
ties, peach prospects are poor.

the greatest crisis in the history of San

Chicago Fugitive Finally Caught
While Watching Parade.

CHICAGO. May 31.-While watching a
Memorial day parade. Ernest Martini
twenty-seven years old. who for two years.
according to his confession. has gone afoot
through many of the western states weighed
down by fear of arrest for the killing of
Frank Murda. Chicago saloonkeeper was
captured yesterday. Martini. according
to the statement made by him after he was
locked up, said he had been haunted dur
ing his daily efforts to elude captors, both
real and imaginary, by the horror of his
act and the further fear that he was losing
his mind. Finally after two years of roam
ing, in which he had hidden in nearly
every state west of the Mississippi river he
came to Chicago in order that his friends
might place him in sanitarium.
He had been In the Garfield Park sani-
tarfum since May %. When the Memorial
day parade formations were being brought
to order he stood In front Of the sanitarum
watching the maneuvers. Three policemen
saw him and a few moments later he was
locked up.
Last night Martini gave out a confession
of the killing Of Murda. He freely ad-
mitted the crime, but said the act was in
self-defense-that Murda was armed with
an iron bar and threatened him.
The murder of Murda occurred August
6. 1905. and resulted from a quarrel over
his refusal to sell drinks after the closing
time.

Southern Pacific Slow-Time Schedule.

SAN FRANCISCO. May 31.-The South
ern Pacific. beginning June l. will put its
overland and coast trains on a slower run
ming schedule. Traffic has been so heavy
on the various lines that it has been found
practically impossible TO maintain the ex-
listing schedules, and passengers have re-
peatedly been brought into the San Fran
cisco and Los Angeles terminals later than
they expected. The changes will make the
published time of arrival late enough to
conform with the actual average running
time. and several trains will be started our
sooner. The Shore Limited will be entirely
abandoned and not put again till some
time next winter. The difference in time
VIII be about three hours later to eastern
points than under the old schedule
