Of the 6 per cent bonds, the 4 per cent
bonds and the preferred stock In the
selection OF the committees TO work
out the readjustment plan, and 1t was
suggested that the personnel of these
committees is an earnest of sincerity.
At any rate, It was said, never before
have bankers of such prominence and
on any one proposition.
At the head of the 6 per cent bond
holders committee is A. ]. Hemphill,
president of the Guaranty Trust COM
pany, the largest In the city and coun-
try. His associates are It. De Witt
Cuyler Of the Pennsylvania and New
Haven; Rowland Davis, a New York
banker; J. II. Harding, of G. D. Bar
ney & Co., and Albert H. W1ggin,
president of the Chase National bank.
Charles II. Sabin, vice president of
the Guaranty Trust company, is chair
man Of the 4 per cent b~ondholders'
committee.
The interests Of preferred stockhold-
err are in charge of a committee of
which James N. Wallace, president Of
the Central Trust company, is chair
man.
No member of these committees was
a defendant in the suit brought by the
government for dissolution of the com
pany. None of them, as far as may be
ascertained from the records Of secur-
ity holdings, has any considerable d.
rect financial interest in the readjust-
ment. Practically all of them are
bankers whose interest it Is to see a
liberal and rapid compliance with the
decision Of the supreme court and an
equitable arrangement among security
holders. No hint Is given as to the
plan contemplated.

TOBACCO TRUST
TO REORGANIzE
Supreme Court Decision
is to be 0beyed.

New York, July 2s.-Committees to
readjust the business Of the American
Tobacco company to conform to the
decision Of the United States supreme
court have been appointed, and the
first action looking toward a reorgani-
cation Of the gigantic trust has begun.
All holders Of securities Of the COM
pany will be asked to assist in the
work.
1t may be assumed from the appoint
ment Of the committees that the COM
pany has a readjustment plan well I'M
der way. At any rate, the managers
of the company, the leading security
holders, their bankers and their law
yers have been at work on measures
of compliance with the courts deci-
sion since 1t was rendered May %.
The company has until Dec. 20 to read
just or dissolve its business in accord
ance with the decision.
1t is essential, so 1t was explained,
that holders Of all kinds of securities
cooperate in a liberal compliance with
the courts directions. The securities
are very widely distributed, and of the
entire capitalization Of the company
a great portion is held by small in
vestors all over the country and by
many investors In foreign countries.
The decision Of the supreme court, 1t
seems, though there is a difference Of
opinion in this respect, is to require
every individual security holder to
obey its mandate.
AS Is stated in circular letters sent
out by the committees, ut is desired
to recreate out of the elements now

Premier Asquith Doubtful as
the Morocco Outcome.

London, July 2S. The most pessl
mistic views regarding the Moroccan
Minister Asquith In the house of com
mons when, with a manner as impress
sive as his words, he read from a
manuscript, which had been carefully
prepared, a warning to Germany that
Great Britain intended to stand for
what she considered her rights and to
maintain the balance of power In Eu-
rope.
The gravity Of the situation was en-
phasized by he fact that the prime
minister had taken the leader of the
opposition into the governments con-
6dence, inc Mr.. Balfour's declaration
was no less firm than Mr.. Asquith's.
The prime minister's statement was
couched in diplomatic though not re-
assuring language. At the very open
ing he said:
at is obvious that this Moroccan
question has reached a point at which
1t will become increasingly difficult,
embarrassing and anxious unless a solu-
ton is found"
Coupled with the governments view
of the crisis word that Germany
Is assembling a fleet at the direction
Of the minister of marine for active

MISSOURI NEWS
MfssourI Leads In Corn.

Jefferson City.-That the state OF
Missouri grows three-ffths as much
corn as is grown in Europe, three
times the amount raised in South
America and nearly half as much as
the world outside of the United States
produces, are authoritative estimates
give nout by Prof. F. B. Mumford,
dean of the state agricultural depart
ment of the University of Missouri.
These statements are taken from an
article prepared by Prof. Mumford in
a competitive contest with Austin w.
Biggs of the bureau of labor statistics
and w. L. Nelson, assistant secretary
of the state board of agriculture, for
the best article upon the agricultural
possibilities of Missouri to be fur
nished the bureau of immigration in
Washington, D. G. The average value
of Missouri's corn crop, Prof. Num-
ford says, is about 500, 600, 900, and
that its hay and wheat crops average
about 100000, 600 each. OF the corn
belt states Missouri has the greatest
acreage of ~unoccupied land. Prof.
Mumford estimates this at 10000, 900
acres. He finds the greatest number
of apple trees in Missouri, and an av-
erage production of apples equal to
That OF any other state.

SECRET OF PASTORS SUCCESS
Writer Is Of Opinion That Proper Man
ner Has Much to Do With
the Matter.

The reason why a good many min
listers of fair ability are out of a lob
is because they do not want to visit.
because they are looking for a church
that will fit their own notions rather
than trying to fit themselves to the
needs Of a church. It is true that a
good many men do not know how to
call. they DO not know how to behave
when they get into a house, they do
not like 1t and will shirk 1t every
chance they get. Yet calling is the
secret OF success in almost every par
fish today-not the same kind of call
ing In all places, but some kind in
every plaoe-and If our seminaries
had wisdom they would fit their stu
dents to do their work in the best
way, in the only way in which it can
be done In the country at least. Give
one year to sermon-making and three
years to making gentlemen in the
truest sense of that word. Thus send
out men who can adapt themselves to
the needs of the place where they are
called, and can thus serve human
souls, who, being as they are, want
to be better. The problem of the
country church is to be solved by the
pastor rather than the preacher
Universalist Leader.
