New Crop Conditions.


 At the various state headquarters of the Farmers union and the Cotton asso- citation reports are daily received con- cerning the effect of food and storm damage, the late frosts, cold winds, the bright spell and the excessive moisture of recent days in many sections of the belt. That the damage has been materi- al Is certain, and that 1t may cut consid- erable of swath in new crop calcula- when they did not kill; the succeeding cold winds did not help matters and when the hot sun finally became active the young and tender plant showed greatly the ef- fects of the former chilling. It Is not cuch fields that produce big crop. Re- planting will be necessary on millions of acres, if the reports are to be credited The season is growing late and in many cases the ground Is not in condition to work Floods have submerged thousands of acres, from which no crop can be ex- pected this year of any sort, the water not having subsided yet
 In addition there is an organized move r1ent to reduce acreage in both the Far rlers' union and Cotton association by blowing up poor stands of cotton and tho lean ground, and rep!anting in other crops, corn, grass and forage. This idea is meeting with ready response and there is no estimating the amount of cotton seeded ground that will produce no cot ton this year. Such action would have been deemed an imposs- blity two years

George Yeddi, the Japanese charged
with stabbing George YemdO, another
Jap, was arrested this morning near
Alfalfa and was brought to this city
by Sheriff Haviland.
Yeddi stopped last night at hotel
in Touchet and it was from that point
that the information was telephoned in.
Sheriff Haviland at once took an auto
and went after his man. finding him
about three miles from Wallula. Yeddi
had nothing on his person save some
tobacco and money. When seen at
Touehet last night he is said to have
'carried a gun.
Yedd admits he is the man the
sheriff has been looking for but denies
the crime. He says he ran away be-
cause he had been accused and was
afraid. He denies absolutely all knoWl-
ledge of the stabbing.
Yemdo is much better today. His
condition is improving all the time
Yesterday afternoon he had bad turn
but recovered from this and it was
found an operation would not be ne
cessary. 1t is thought he will recover.

TELLER ACCUSED OF
MIsAPPRoPRIATING.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, April 7.-Ac-
lcused of robbing the Bank of Los An
|geles of $3.50, possibly more, Edwin
lCramer, for some time trusted teller
in the institution, has dropped from
lsight. A warrant for his arrest has been
issued. charging him with grand lar
lceny.
1t is the belief Of the police that Cra-
mer has fled to Mexico. The crime of
which Cramer is accused was COM
mitted on March %, after banking
hours. According to officials he re-
turned to the bank after the work of
the day, opened the safe, gathered as
much cash as he could conveniently
carry and then decamped.
Race track gambling is placed at the
bottom of the bank teller's alleged
crime.
