MAINE is TO Be
SAILED UNDER
HER OWN STEAM

Washington, D. c., July 26.-John F.
O'Rourke, the engineer who bridged
the Hudson at Poughkeepsie and drove
the Pennsylvania railroads tunnel un-
der the North river, has laid before
Acting Secretary of War Oliver his
plan for raising the Maine from the
mud of Havana harbor.
Briefly, the O'Rourke plan is based
upon a system of pneumatic caissons,
such as have made possible the build
ing of extremely deep foundations un-
der water, and which contributed large
" to the success of the building of tun-
nels under the Hudson. No divers are
used and the pontoon system is put
completely aside. The method propos-
ed is to swing the Maine in a cradle OF
powerful cables and lift it completely
out of the water, wnere a complete in
spection of the hull will be possible.
While the ship is suspended above
water, Mr.. O'Rourke declares, it can be
repaired as readily as if it were in dry
dock, and after being relamched from
the cable cradle can leave Havana har-
Dor under its own steam.

a serious condition. Rev. William
John McCaughan. for nine years pas
tor of the Third Presbyterian church
Chicago, and his wife were so badly
injured by jumping from a window
that their condition is considered
critical. The McCaughans were
caught on an upper floor and in at
tempting to find an exit through the
hall were terribly burned.
Escape Cut on.
Their escape through the usual eX-
its being cut off by the flames, the
minister and his wife finally threw
themselves from an upper window:
Both struck the pavement with great
force and when they were removed
to a hospital it was found the skulls
of both were fractured. McCaughan
resigned his pastorate in Chicago in
May, 1907, to become pastor of the
May street congregation in this city.

IOWA OFFICIAL
ADMITS THEFT:
Then RESIGNS

Cedar Rapids, Iowa, July 26.-Admit-
ting that he had taken $3.50 of the city's
money, $3.50 nearly a year ago and $500
few weeks ago, Councilman Henry
S. Keffer, head of the department of
parks and public property, resigned
from the council yesterday. The mem
bers of the council put up the money 10
make the shortage good Mr.. Keffer
signed over to them his equity in his
home. 1t is expected that when the
home is sold enough will be realized
from his equity therein to reimburse
the council Mr.. Keffer will not be
prosecuted, though the action of Mayor
Miles Sunday seemed to point in that
direction.
Mr.. Keffer has told the council that
his troubles all began when he was
city clerk, at which time some one
forged blank checks to the amount of
several hundred dollars and succeeded
in cashing Them at the bank. intercept
ing and destroying the cancelled checks
when they returned TO his office. In
the efforts to straighten the shortage
made by these thefts he borrowed mon
ey, at first from neighbors and friends,
afterwards from the city, sometimes
one. sometimes another. These debts
have been hanging over him since that
time. Instead of climbing out, he kept
sinking in, always little deeper.

Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1910-07-26

Reports received yesterday from va
rious sections of the belt, but more
especially from Oklahoma and south
ern Kansas, were of a sensational char.
acter and indicated that the outlook
was extremely pessimistic.
The extremely large acreage planted
this year, about 114,000,000 acres, or
100000 acres more than a year ago,
las been the basis for the general opin-
ion that, regardless of ordinary set
backs, a larger crop would be raised
than last year. Recently, however. the
be ars have taken to the woods and are
taking cognizance of the many bad re-
ports.
Torrid temperatures were the rule
over Sunday in Kansas, Missouri. Ok
l8homa and parts of Iowa and Illinois.
AS the corn belt up to the present time
is deficient about 80 per cent compared
TO the ordinary amount of rainfall, the
present situation is recognized as be
ing critical.
Need of Rain Imperative.
All the experts recently in the field
have forwarded decidedly gloomy re-
rCrts and state that the need of rain is
imperative. Notwithstanding these ad-
wees. the trade as a rule has been in
different and unwilling to believe that
anything serious was the matter with
the crop.
The poor start which the crop had
owing TO the unfavorable conditions af-
ter planting, has made the later unsat-
'@factory developments all the more no.
ticeable. Temperatures in the south
west ranging up to 107 in the shade
and accompanied by hot winds have
been especially severe on the late corn.
Aid. B. w. Snow, the local crop ex-
pert, gave out the following statement
during the day:
Weather conditions the last "a
hours have been bad for corn in Iowa,
Ne braska and southern and northwest
eTn Kansas. Excessive heat, hot winds
and no moisture on top of a seasoua5Ie
deficiency of fully one-half place the
crop in a most critical condition. The
crop has begun to go back in all sec
TONS
Reports to Ware & Leland from their
crop exports who have just made an
examination of the corn between Chi
cGgo and Clinton, Iowa, said that
everything is burning UP in that Sec
ton.
Beneficial, Says washington
Washington, July 26.-Sunshine in
great corn and winter wheat growing
states during the past week was very
beneficial to the development of grow
ing vegetation and for harvest pur-
poses. According to the national week
ly weather bulletin issued by the de-
partment of agriculture today, rain i'm
many portions of spring wheat region
relieved the drought, but
much more rain is needed.

| tensible son were overheard discuss
ing their escape from the police.
Captain Kendall thereupon sent
several wireless messages, to which
replies were received. Then Captain
Kendall and two of his officers ar
rested the pair on July %, DR.. Grip
pen on the charge of murder, and
Miss Leneve on a charge of illegally
impersonating a boy. The young
woman burst into tears when she was
arrested.
The two now are in custody in
separate cabins. DR.. Crippen declares
he can prove his innocence. Miss
Leneve, according to the Express,
is in a state of collapse and is eager
to make a sworn statement.
Since Crippen and his companion
disappeared more than two weeks
ago from the Hilldrop crescent resi-
dence, where a mutilated body, sup
posed to be that of Crippen's wife,
was found under the cellar floor,
search has been made in many coun-
tries, particular attention having
been given to France. OF the many
clews followed to the final ending,
that which led the police to the
docks of Antwerp and to pursuit
across the ocean seems to hold out
the best prospects for the capture of
