GOOD CROP At
HIGH PRICES
James ]. Hill Gives Reason
for His Optimism.
BETTER TIMES At HAND

Much Wealth Will Be Added to the
Farmers Store This Year, He Says,
and This Will Help Manufacturing
manifestations of His Railroad
Lines Contemplating Construction
Work at Present.
New York, July 1 Optimistic
words uttered by James J. Hill of st.
Paul are the subject of much COM
ment among hnanciers. Mr.. Hill has
proved himself an excellent authority
on crop conditions and his remarks on
the subject are always read in New
York with interest. He says: :.
1--WE are going to have a good, big,
average crop. Not bumper crops, but
a good round yield, comparing we'll
with the average. The money value
will be larger than usual, for prices
will be higher. Corn is now selling
around Is cents in Nebraska and
wheat about $130 in Minneapolis. The
time of low prices for grain has
passed. A great deal of wealth will
be added to the farmers store by the
sale of crops this year.
':As for the business outlook there
is no menace ahead. Good crops bring
ing high prices will help the manu-
featuring industries. There should be
steady expansion in that line. Prob
ably it will receive some additional
stimulus after congress adjourns."
Mr.. Hill is inclined to treat lightly
the story of the construction by the
Burlington of the Herrin Southern,
from Herrin, ILL.,, to New Orleans,
thus paralleling the Illinois Central
to the Gulf as we'll as to Omaha.
Mr.. Hill also doubted If it were true
that the Burlington was getting ready
to build long extension from Chey-
enne, in the southeastern part of Wy
oming, diagonally across the state to
connect with a branch now operated
down Big Basin river to Kirby, Wyo
"None of our lines are doing much
building now" he said, nor is there
much work contemplated for the near
future"

London, July l. The suffragettes

charges of disorderly conduct while
attempting to present a petition to
Premier Asquith are making it lively

Information given out by the Women's

the prisoners decline persistently to

ground that the bill was "such little
one" that no harm could result from
It's passage. But Senators Lodge and
