Determined that the $4,000 pearl
necklace. which Miss Jennie Crocker
lost at the mardi gras. is in the possess
sion of some person who found it, the
detectives who have been engaged in
the hunt for the missing jewels are
patiently waiting for that person to
appear and claim the $4,000 reward.
The last clew as to the whereabouts
OF the necklace was run to earth last
night, and the information proved to
be valueless.
BY q process of elimination the de-
tectves have decided that no employe
OF the hotel who was on duty in the

dining room, found the pearl necklace.

channels. 1t was stated last night that
guest of the hotel or at the ball
found the valuables and has held them
for such a length OF time as to prefer
not TO undergo the embarrassment now
of returning them, until the excitement
incident to the loss has subsided. 1t
Is now considered certain that Miss
Crocker lost the necklace while pass

she visited a number of her intimate

Petersen Not Searching

OAKLAND. March 3.-Captain of De-
tectives Petersen said this afternoon
that he has had no hand in the search
being made for Miss Jennie Crocker's
stolen jewels.
L have been informed he said, that
there was a letter sent TO Detective
Hershey from an Oakland lodging
house, written on the house station
cry. It was reported that there were
four of the walters at the st. Francis
hotel ball living at the house at one
time. but that is incorrect.
The letter, as 1 understand it, was
not singular, being one of the many
communications sent to the detectives
since the pearl necklace was stolen.
Some of the private detectives working
in the hunt went to the lodging house,
as have since learned, and spoiled any
clew there might have been. The story
that 1 had a share in the investigation
is utterly baseless."

Farmers Should Not Rag.

"In my thirty years residence in

satisfactory as they are at the pres
ent time, in my opinion, said j.
q. Brown, of Walburg township,
Cass county, when queried as to
conditions in that section of the

sending out reports of conditions
of the crops Shave them rushed to
the bucket shops then to the
board Of trade-and then see wheat
drop 2 or 3 cents bushel.
This proposition is the farmers
stock in trade. B.
II am most heartily opposed to
the system Of government reports.
Why should the government fur
nish the board OF trade with facts
and figures about the crop condi-
ftions? They don't furnish the
farmers with the number Of bind
ers manufactured, the number Of
pounds Of twine on the market, or
the condition Of cotton crops.
1.-THE farmer should say nothing,
i believe, but just hold his grain
until there is a demand for it. Let
the purchaser call at the; farm and
get his grain, the same as the
farmer does if he wants groceries,
shoes or clothing. Do we 20 in
and place the prices on articles in
. storeY Why doesn't it work
both ways?" he concluded. #

Men Wanted in the Hay Fields.

B Washington, July PA cry for
help to harvest the seasons
bounteous crops comes from the
west to officials of the department
Fof commerce and labor, whose
functions in part are to find en-
|ployment wherever possible for the
throng of aliens who come into
this country
Fifty thousand ble-bodied men
are wanted, and badly, too, by the
farmers Of the west, according to
Representative Stevens of Mime
Sofa, who has been in conference
with Assistant Secretary McHarg
and other officials of the depart
ment Of commerce and labor. MIR.
Stevens says the west is literally
begging for help to gather the big
wheat and other crops. He de-
|clares that the crop situation in
the west is splendid.
Il While officials here are more
than willing to assist, they are
Epowerless to do very much, be-
cause of the almost penniless con-
|dition of the thousands of aliens
who annually reach American
shores. Mr.. McHarg is heartily in
favor of the timely suggestion of
Commissioner Williams at the
Ellis Island, immigration station
that aliens should at least possess
$25 upon landing to prevent their
becoming public charges. He be-
lieves that the problem of reliev-
ing the congested centers of the
alien population could be solved
by the railroads of the country Of
fering to transport them at actual
cost to these sections where pro-
fitable employment could be had.
The railroads would in the end, he
declares, profit by SO doing, be-,
cause they would carry the pro-
duct of the aliens labor.
