the government hospital, which is located
on the banks of the Mississippi river,
is a place of unusual quiet for such an

COTTON CROP
MUCH IMPROVED
RAINS FELL OVER A WIDELY SCAT
TERED TERRITORY.
Boil Weevils More Numerous Since the
Rains, But Not So Destructive
as Last Year.

Memphis, Tenn.-Rains fell in moder-
ate to heavy quantity in all parts OF the
cotton belt during the week save West
ern and Southwestern and parts OF
Northern Texas and Western Oklahoma.
Where rain fell the cotton crop has been
put in most excellent condition and the
promise is fine. The fields are univer-
sally well cultivated and the plant is
green, healthy, growing and fruiting.
Blooms are reported in the most northern
districts.
In Oklahoma and most of the central
cotton belt the outlook is the best in
many years, and conditions approach the
ideal. They are a little less favorable in
South Carolina, where the rainfall has
not yet been sufficient.
In Western Texas and Oklahoma the
crop has suffered no injury that rain will
not restore, but the ground is becoming
quite dry and such light and scattered
showers as have fallen have given but
little relief. Rain is rapidly becoming a
necessity for a good cotton crop,
In Louisiana, Arkansas and Southern
Mississippi boil weeyils are becoming
more numerous since the rains, but are
not 80 destructive as at this time last
year.

Observation-Disclosures" or corrup-

tics in Illinois," according to the testi,
mony of former Senator Albert j. Hop

Whether any Of the jackpot funds or
other corruption funds had been used
to defeat him for senator, he was IN
able to tell the committee of his own
knowledge. lie explained, however, that
he would be the last man to know of
such corrupt practices, because he was,

knocked down by a bludgeon, who knew
no more about it than the crowd, but
was hurt worse than it,"
Nearly every phase of the Lorimer
case was gone into when Mr.. Hopkins
was on the stand. lie declined to answer
specific questions as to whether he sus-
pected Lorimer was using corrupt meth
DDS to defeat him, or as to whether he
believed certain members of the legis.

Mr.. Ilanccy, counsel for Lorimer, pro-
tested against the witness leaving the
stand without expressing an opinion on
the rumor that the ifty-three Democrats
who voted for Lorimer on the last bal

said he hired a hall in which confer

Chicago,-Fourteen secretaries of as
many retail lumber dealers associations,

here for alleged violation of the Sher-

kind Of trust" according to the at
torneys who conducted the investiga-
ton.
The retail lumber dealers, it was adj

stock and did not try to control prices
and prevent competition among them
selves. Instead, they had what the at
torneys say was a trust of power" and
sought to provide that all lumber should
be sold to consumers only through re-
tail dealers and not by wholesalers or
manufacturers.
The men as secretaries of the retail
associations constituted the Lumber Sec

tered Mail.

Memphis, Tenn.-Two heavily armed
bandits boarded the fast mail train Of
the Illinois Central Railroad, at Auction
avenue, near the Shelby county Jail, and,
after covering the eight mail clerks with
pistols, forced them to place the regis
tered mail in a sugar sack. The rob-
bers then pulled the emergency valve,
which brought the train to Il sudden halt
near the Wolf river bridge. They jump
ed from the car with their booty, be-
lieved to have contained thousands Of
dollars, and disappeared in the loneliness
of the river bottom.
1t is impossible for the ~postoffce Of
icials to estimate the value of the reg
istered hail. The robbers carefully laid
their plans, as they selected a train
which carried the largest shipment of
registered mail for points in the north
and east.
On the inside of the mail car eight
clerks were busy asserting the mail. As
the train passed the Jail, two masked
robbers boarded the car from Il door on
the east. The robbers, with stern voices,
called to the mail clerks to hold their
hands up. They obeyed, after which
they were lined up in one end of the
car. The highwaymen s%ignaIed out one
of the clerks, and told him to pile all
of the registered mail in the center of
the car. They then made him place the
valuables in a 1OOlb. sugar sack, which
they had brought along.
