Taft Says Institution of Private

Socialism was proclaimed by Pres

and most difficult problem that ever
faced the United States, and the in
stitution of private property was her

custom of the tenets and principles of
socialism, the President declared that
the Republican party has demonstrated
its capacity for dealing with other

that the country must soon determine
whether the same party is to be in
trusted with the solution of the next
big problem.

SENATE PASSES RAILROAD BILL
Administrators Measure Is Carried,
SO to IL, at Night Session.

The administration railroad bill
was passed by the Senate of the Uni
ted States the other night at 10 o'clock
by vote of so to II. The negative
votes were cast by Democrats as fol-
lows: Rscon, Fletcher, Frazier,
Hughes, Money, Newlands, Percy, Pur-

After the vote was announced Mr..

The province of Avellino bore the
brunt of a severe earthquake that was
felt throughout Southern Italy shortly

are estimated from thirty-five to fifty,
and many are injured. Distressing
scenes were witnessed as thousands

In Avellino little harm was done,
and the only death reported was that
of an old man who died of fright. The
population, however, was terror-striek-

Reports from villages throughout tho
province are much more grave. AZ
Galitri, where twenty people are re-

death at San SoSsio, where the sulphur
waters, with which the district is rich,
were released from bounds by the dis

the flood noxious gases arose. At Chi.

1t was in the darkest hour of the
morning when the shock was felt at
Avellino. The sleeping town was arous-
ed by the shaking of walls, the rafting
of furniture and the falling of plaster
from tie ceilings. In a moment panic
had seized the 10000 inhabitants, who
live in daily fear of a seismic disaster.
Half naked men, women and children
fled from their homes screaming with
terror. They had in their minds Wis

gio. Recently there was gossiped about
prediction that the approach of Hal.
ley's comet portended the end of the
world The authorities kept their
heads, but they could not stay the mad
rush for the squares and open districts
outside the city. The widest eonfu.
sion prevailed and the frightened ones
could not be reasoned with: could not
be stopped. In the squares hundreds
threw themselves upon their faces and
implored the mercy of the Almighty.
After several hours of frantic entreaty
the authorities succeeded in re-estab-
fishing a se.mblance of calm and relief
squads were organized AS is usually
the case, the inhabitants refused to re-
enter their homes, fearing that another
quake would occur. Throughout the
day the police were busy bringing to-
gether the scattered members of fami-
lies and reassuring the frightened ones.
Word that the king and queen were
en- route there on special train served
to afford new courage to the people and
had a good effect in restoring order.

ARBITRATION BOARD DECISION
Wage Is Boosted for 81, 900 Men on
Fifty-one Railroads.

Twenty-seven thousand employees on
fifty-one railroads operating west,
northwest and southwest of Chicago
will receive a wage increase aggregat
ing 100000 year as result of a
decision given by the arbitration board
chosen some time ago to pass upon the
demand Of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen and Enginemen for an
increase in pay.
The award of the arbitrators means
an increase in wages all along the line
ranging between 10 and u per cent
The arguments of representatives of
the railroad employees that the increas
ed cost OF living at the present time
fully warranted a boost in pay were
sustained by the arbitration board,
which held that an increase Of 10 cents
day is due the railroad employees
who are paid on the basis Of their
daily toll and that a similar increase
should be paid to the men whose re-
Enumeration is figured on the hundred.
mile schedule"
1t was the conclusion Of the arbitra.
tors that this advance should be given
solely because the cost OF living has
advanced at a very substantial rate.
In addition, a number OF increases
were granted where ii was shown that
extra work was demanded.

Through discovery made by Prof.
Ernest Huebner, a German naturalist,
that migratory birds never cross the
seas and oceans except in storm cur
rents, the science of air navigation by
men is destined to make it's greatest
step forward, according to an article
in the June Century His recent ex-
periments with the German redbreast
show that the bird determines from the
wind as felt in the nostrils when to
start A French scientist proved that
the birds depend on the sense of feeling
in the nossrils by testing the flight of
three homing pigeons, the ears of one
and the nostrils Of another being seal
ed, the third being left free. The free
one arrived home on time, a distance
of 300 miles as did also the one with
ears sealed. But the one with nostrils
closed was two days late, and then
came in with the nostrils freed. These
experiments are expected to enable
aeronauts to invent instruments with
which to read the changing air cur
rents, so as to make long flights and
overwhelming attacks in time of war.

ties are placed at $1,400,000 and the
assets at 100000. The receivers said
the company was solvent and that its
business would be continued without
interruption. 1t is alleged that the
company has been spending large sums
for realty and for leases that should
have been placed in the business. The
immediate cause of the receivership is
given as poor business resulting from
unfavorable spring weather. The prin-
cipal creditors are in St Louis. Chica-

BAD WEATHER HURTS CORN.
Unreasonable Conditions Worry the
Farmers-Crop Backward.

UuseasonaDle ConQ1tlonS worry the
Farmers-Crop Backward.
Unreasonable weather conditions
throughout the corn belt are causing
great concern on the part of farmers
In regard to the corn crop. Tempera-
lures close to the freezing point have
been the rule for a week or more in
Nebraska, and, while no serious dam
age has been done, the crop is back
ward and cold weather has undoubt-
eddy checked the growth One effect
OF the wet and cold conditions follow
ing the mild weather early in the sea-
son was to make replanting necessary
over a large area of the corn belt.
In some sections corn has been plant
ed at least three times, and in other
districts good seed corn is selling at
almost unheard of prices. In some
places the supply of seed corn that has
been tested is nearly exhausted.
In the central part of Illinois it is
reported that seed corn is selling at
Sc to So bushel, which is on fam
Inc basis. Even at this price reports
stated that the supply was nearly
gone,' and that farmers were in
quandary. The poor termination in
some sections of the belt is ascribed
to the poor quality of much of the
corn and to the early frosts last fall,
before the corn was fully ripened
Throughout the winter there were
reports that the corn was testing poor
iy. 1t is still early enough for corn
to be replanted and, with favorable
conditions, to make a big crop, but
the poor start has made big differ
ence in the views of farmers as to
the yield.
In regard to the weather conditions,
oats have been favored by the cold,
wet spring, and conditions are uni
formly fine. reports from most Sec
tons being to the effect that the out
look was for bumper crop. Should
the weather turn excessively hot.
which would be favorable for the
growth of the corn crop along normal
lines, it would be likely to injure the
oats just about the time they were be-
ginning to fill.
Close students of cereal conditions
say that usually it is hard to obtain
big yields of both corn and oats the
same year, as conditions that are ia
vorable for one are sometimes detri-
mental to the other.
