will be practically rnined if the

it is true a great many farmers

true that the country merchant
would be benefited instead of be

RUSH CARS n WHEAT BELT
TWo-THlRDS OF KANSAS CROP IS
 HARVESTED.
Annual Distribution of Box Cars Fur nshes Summer Problem for West
 ern Transportation Companies.

Topeka, Kan. - Two-thirds of this years wheat crop is harvested and to carry 1t to the markets the rail roads of Kansas are rushing approXi- mately 10000 freight cars to the wheat belt. By July l, when the threshing season is at it's height, there will be hardly a bad order" car in the whole state.
 For two months the four leading railroads of the state have been work Ing night and day to have all the avail able cars put in shape to transport the wheat. The distribution of these cars Is the biggest summer task that these roads have. AS fast as a car is made suitable, it is sent out into the state to walt until it is filled with grain and shipped eastward or to the Gulf
 It is estimated that if all the wheat threshed in this state this year could be held and loaded into cars at the same time, it would make a train 473 miles long, or longer than the state. and that it would take 319 locomotives to haul it. The total yield is esti- mated at between 65,000,000 and TO-, 000,000 bushels.

Los Angeles. Cal.-A man believed to be David Caplain. one of the al- legged MeNamara dynamite conspira tors, is under surveillance in London Papers are being prepared for his ex tradition from England to this coun- try
 District Attorney John D. Fredericks is in Washington conferring with Sec retary of State Knox regarding the case and 1t is expected he will join Detective William Burns, who went to London six weeks ago, and bring back the suspect.
 These facts were confirmed by of. ficials of the district attorneys office
 "The papers are being prepared said Manager E. R. Mills of the de. tective bureaus local agency. "Unti. then we cannot discuss the case. Burns, however. is in England
 Mills was asked if it was believed that Schmidt, the third man suspected of having set the bombs that de- gtroyed the Times newspaper plant last October, also was in England.
 No" said Mills, unless we are very much mistaken. Schmidt is some where in the northwest"
 The man alleged to be captured was run down by Scotland Yard in Lon don. According to advices received here the suspect was discovered through the instrumentality of broth CT who lives in the British capital.
 The first information of the case came from Secretary Knox to Gov. Johnson at Sacramento. Secretary Knox is said to have received his in- formation officially through the Brit ish embassy at Washington.

SHEARS SENATE OF P0WER
NEGOTIATIONS UNDER TREATY
 TO BE DIRECT.
1 International Commission to Deter
 mine the Propriety of Arbtrating
 Questions at Issue.

Washington.-Final work on the Anglo-American arbitration treaty was begun by Secretary of State Knox and Ambassador Bryce. AS the treaty now stands it supplements existing arbitra- tion treaties in the following respects:
 It adds to the list of arbitral con- troversies those of vital interest and national honor. It provides that ne- gotiations under this treaty shall be direct, the senate to retain only the right of passing upon the protocol or statement of the questions at issue.
 Questions considered by both coun- tries as internationally justifiable have been submitted to The Hague tribunal.
 Under this treaty the separate ar bitration of disputes will be conducted under terms of submission. subject to the advice and the consent of the senate.
 This eliminates any question of a serious curtainlment of the rights of the senate in dealing with interna- tional questions. Under the proposed treaty on international commission will be given the right to determine the propriety of arbitrating ques- tion at issue.
