NEW YORK, Nov. 4.--That there is
imminent peril in and about the So,
100000 criminal courts building, which

Traffic in the subway was allowed
to continue, but instructions were given
to pass the threatened spot at reduced

The robbers Immediately fled 10 the

are now hidden somewhere in the re-

The belief is growing in the neigh

Haney, who with his brother held up
the Canadian Pacific railroad train at
Notch Hill last spring, planned and
executed this robbery. After the kill

Secretary Wilson Says the American
Farmer Must Make Most of
Land or We viii De-
pend on Aliens
TBy Associated Press. |

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.-Some day
the steady increase of population in
the United States is bound to over
tax the ability of the farmer to pro-
vide for its sustenanCe but that day
is remote, according To Secretary Will
son of the agricultural department.
Nor will il be necessary in the i'm
mediate future to import grain fol
bread, notwithstanding the doleful pre-
dictions of some publicists. Everything
depends upon the American farmers
disposition to make the most of the
resources of his land, and to improve
his methods of agriculture, in accord
ance with the country's needs.
The prospect is for a great increase
in the production of wheat, in the sec
retary's opinion, and for two reasons
first. the greatly enhanced market
value of that staple would surely tempt
the American farmers to plant more
wheat; and, second, thanks to the dis
covery of the possibility Of growing
durum wheat i'm a large part of the
country hitherto regarded as unavail-
able, there would be great addition
to the annual crop total.
But the agricultural department does
not like the methods pursued by the
! growers.
Soil robbers!" exclaimed DR.. Gallo
way. who is making a special study
| of the new grain, and the secretary
assented to the designation.
Great syndicates are farming tracts
of 10000 acres i'm wheat, planting thS
crop again and again without regard
| to tie necessary rotation that would
insure the soil against exhaustion.
That was one of the things the sec
retary had i'm mind when he said bet
ter farming methods would be required
to produce all the wheat the American
people would need.

Austrian embassy at Washington Is
endeavoring to clear UP through the

questing funds to bury Louis Vetsera,
who had died in this city october 30.
Consul Grivicic was instructed to
seek the aid of Mayor Speer, IL neeeS-
sary, to find the body of Vetsera.
Although, according TO the consul
1t is the custom of representatives OF
the Austrian government in this coun-
try to keep track of all deaths of coun-
trymen, the fact the assistance of the
MAYOR was to be sought indicated the
Austrian ambassador was more than
ordinarily interested in Identifying the

Baron Disappears
After the tragic death of his sister
Baron Won Vetsera disappeared. Some
credited him with the murder of his
sister and the crown prince because
they refused to break off their alleged
Illicit relations, and many believe ne
afterward committed suicide.
Consul Won Grivcic declares that so
far as he knows the baron never came
to the United States and he Is not
aware that his whereabouts were
known to his government.
At the instruction of Mayor Speer
the police authorities of this city have
been tracing the career of Frank wy

was Louis Won Vetsera, and that ne
lived a secluded life in this city, he
was afflicted with consumption and
was penniless in his latter days. lie
