CHOLERA SPREADS
TO GERMAN TOWN
Two Cases Reported and Au.
thorities Take Vigorous
Steps Against It

Berlin, Aug. 29-It was officially
gazetted today that two cases of
Asiatic cholera had developed at Span
dau. Precautionary notices to the
public were issued. The authorities
today isolated the woman who had
nursed her mother through the fatal
illness diagnosed as cholera. The pub
lie is warned that the use of the So
called cholera drops and tonics is flu
tile and is urged to Immediately sum-
mon a physician if the digestive Or
gans are disturbed. The cooperation
of the people with the health officers
is asked. According to the medical
men it is not necessary to depart from
the ordinary habits of life except to
avoid vegetables and salads as possi-
BILE transmitters of the bacilli. Alco-
hol is declared not to be a preventa-
tive and the too free use of stimu-
lants is said to increase the liability
of infection by weakening the stom-
ach.

murder of Belle Elmore, the formers
wife, In q formal charge read to them,
In the Bow street police court today
Miss Leneve was charged also with
harboring and maintening Crippen
after the crime and while knowing
that he had committed it.
During the proceedings Inspector
Dew introduced evidence to show that
Crippen contemplated suicide while at
sea, following his flight from this
country. Crippen was quoted also as
declaring that his companion knew
nothing of the trouble in which he
was involved and Miss Leneve was
said to have protested her innocence.
There was a special interest in the
character of the formal charge as the
Canadian warrant for the arrest of the
fugitives had merely laid at their
door the responsibility for the death
or an unknown woman whose body
was found in the cellar of the Crippen
nome at Hill Drop crescent. The fact
that both were today accused of the
murder of Belle Elmore leads to the
supposition that the mutilated body
has been identified to the satisfaction
of the authorities.
1t was also suggested that the po-
lice believe they have further evidence
concerning Miss Leneve's connection
with the tragedy than they have made

GREAT FREIGHT
FIGHT OPENED
Interstate Commerce Commits.
sion Opened Hearings on
Proposed Rate Advance

Chicago. Aug. 29.-Nineteen lawyers
representing the big western railway
systems were present today when the
interstate commerce commission be-
gan its hearing of the testimony bear
ing on the advance In the railroad rate
scheduled to go into effect November
/. The hearing involves 202 transpor-
tation lines in the western trunk line,
trans-Missouri and Illinois freight
committee territory as well as the
shipping interests.
According to President Miller of the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy the
larger lines will not urge poverty as
necessitating the rate advances. Mr..
Miller said that business necessity and
expediency. rather than verge of
bankruptcy" arguments will be made.
The shippers have been organized
to fight the proposed schedule for
some time. The campaign is being
directed by joint subcommittee of
traffic experts headed by F. B. Mont
gomery Of Chicago. The shippers
claim that the railroads have padded
the records of their operating expenses
in order to make it appear that an ad-
vance in freight tariffs is demanded
by common justice to the investors of
their securities.

half million acres annually to wheat

forty million bushels. Wheat was this
pioneers crop and in the early period
of development was nearly the sole in
but with the accumulation
of means afid diversity of industry more
and more attention ls given to other
products, and the wheat area is gradu-

too valuable to be profitably devoted in

ture, but in the newer sections wheat
will continue for long period to be
one of the staples.

DEPOSIT OF Ignite.
Fuel Found Under Farm Four Miles
Southwest Of Aberdeen.

Aberdeen, S. De. E. Webb was
IN the city today from his farm west of
the city with some samples of Ignite
coal, which We're stated to be of eX-
ceptlonal quality and which attracted
much attention here. This coal was
found on the farm of Albert Harkev,
who resides four miles southwest of
Aberdeen.
Mr.. Harkey was digging new we'll
on his farm and when he reached a
depth of eighteen feet, struck vein of
coal. He penetrated it for foot and a
half, when the well filled with water
and he was forced to stop work. Ow-
ing to this fact it is now not known
whether the vein was any thicker or
not, but it is not likely. However, a
vein Of coal of that Depth if of any
considerable width is very valuable
find.
There is hardly any doubt that this
vein is part of the one which was
struck near Warner three years ago,
and to investigate which a number of
Aberdeen men formed company and
sank shaft. Water, however, so in
terfered that the work was abandoned.
II this vein extends over as large a
section as it apparently does, vast
supply of coal is at the doors of Aber-
deem, much nearer than the coal sup
ply in the country across the Missouri
river, or that in North Dakota. The
well on the Harkey farm was being
sunk through high knoll, and is prob
able the vein can be found at much
less debth than eighteen feet. Mr..
Harkey plans to investigate che mat

Keep One of the Most Fertile Regions
of the Earth From Cultivation

The richest soil in the United
States, excelled only by the produc-
tivity of the Nile Valley, is the delta
region in Mississippi. 1t lies along
the western part of the state, extend
ing from the mouth of the Yazoo
River north nearly to the Tennessee
line, and outside of Egypt it has no
agricultural rival in the whole world
Yet rich as it is, and great as are
its possibilities, the scourge of ma
laria kept much of it in it's primitive
wild forest, barred out immigration
and forced the price of the land down
to a mere fraction of it's intrinsic
value. Land hungry as the average
American has been for generations
and still is, yet he cannot successfully
face the peril of malaria, with it's
toll Of shortened life, lessened eff
ticiency and ultimate death. 1t is a
matter Of record that the thousands
of people who would hasten to aid in
making this region the most produc-
tive in America are kept away by the
malaria mosquito.
1t is the reason why thousands of
acres of the most fertile land on the
continent, easy of access and close to
good markets, are today the haunt of
deer and bear. 1t is an example of
the enormous toll the South pays to
malaria. No one other thing has done
so much to retard its progress. =
