FAMINE IN ASIA.


BarIey-Crops Fail.
Constantinople, Nov. 27.-Famine
threatens great part Of Asia Minor
owing to the failure OF crops and the
greatest distress prevails. The sultan
has already issued orders forbidding
the export of barley, OF which large
amounts are annually shipped abroad
to foreign firms for brewing purposes.
This order, 1t 10 expected, will give
rise to great complaint from foreigners
who have made contracts.
The sultan has also exempted from
duty all wheat imported until the end
of January, and has given orders for
the agricultural bank to distribute seed
to the needy farmers.
Winter shows signs Of beginning at
an unusually early time and heavy
rains are hindering autumn sowing.
Added to these calamities is the high
price OF all necessaries of life 80 that
it may be said without exaggeration
that the prospect for the coming win
ter is unprecedentedly gloomy.

Asks League to Give Up.

Chicago, Nov. 27.-The city council
last night by unanimous vote asked
the Chicago Law and Order league to
abandon its campaign against Sunday
saloons and let the question be submit
ted to a vote of citizens at the next
election. In the same resolution the
aldermen asserted that the Sunday clos
ing law now on the statute books is
obsolete" The resolution was adont-
ed without debate and by viva .voce
vote. Officers of the league spent the
day In classifying the evidence secured
by their volunteer detectives.

sHIPPEHs MUTT MAKE GOOD


Chicago, Nov. 20.--Interstaie Com
merce Commissioner e. r. Clark
sharply rebuked the dilatory tactics Of
shippers making complaint against the
railroad today during the hearing on
freight rates to the South Mississippi
river points.
1.-THE time will come when the COM
inIssion will not tolerate such indiffer-
ence," said Mr.. Clark. "We are con-
tinually confronted with just such .
situation. Hundreds OF cases have been
tiled which the commission has only
wasted Its time on, az the complsinants
have failed to produce evidence. Only
few weeks ago we had case In which
there was apparently lack OF any
effort to prepare for it. In this present
ease some Of the witnesses we've not
ready to testify at Kansas City, and it
Ia now the same here"

The thickness of the layer of shells

is laid. From inches to IL inches In
thickness may be required to give good
results under the conditions named.
This would REQUIRE from five to seven
