Many such visits were paid yesterday,
Some identif1cations OF jewelry were

place. and spent most Of the money. He

cities.
Detective BurNngame went to Pitts
burgh yesterday to learn If Hawkins had
disposed OF any jewelry there Hawkins
denied to Inspector Boardman that he
had sold any jewelry in that city, but the

take into the Police Court for arraign-
ment.

Taft Assured of Iowa Convention
Alleged Combine Against Wilson.

The Woodrow Wilson headquarters has
given out the following: Developments in
the democratic presidential campaign
daily make 1T more clear that Woodrow
Wilson Is fighting against a combination
of allies that have divided the territory
in such manner as to concentrate the
strength of the Wilson opposition.
The Associated Press carried a dis
patch this morning disclosing the fact
that Gov. Harmon and Speaker Champ
Clark have decided not to enter the
primary contest in Florida. leaving an
open field to Mr.. Underwood, who halls
from an adjoining state.
To-day the news comes from Wisconsin
that Gov. Harmon'S name will not ap-
although the Ohio governor has had a
strong following in Milwaukee. The lead
ers have dropped Harmon and have taken
up Clark in Wisconsin. A telegram from
Madison today says: There have been no
nominations filed in Wisconsin for Har-
mon delegates. This furnishes conclusive
evidence of combination against Wilson,
z This telegram confirms the interview
given out some time ago by William F.
Pierstorff of Middleton Wis, selected as
one of the Clark candidates for dele
gates at large to the Baltimore conven-
-tion. Mr.. Pierstorff was quoted in the
Wisconsin State Journal. a leading paper
of Madison, saying that he had con-
surance that there was an understanding
between the supporters of Clark and
Harmon that whichever one of these
two receives the larger vote shall get
the support of the others friends. Since
that time the Harmon leaders withdrew
their candidate and failed to take out
nomination papers placing his name on
the primary ballot.
The news comes from Nebraska that
Arthur Mullen, who is now managing the
Clark campaign In Nebraska, was,
up until about four weeks ago, an ardent
supporter of Gov. Harmon. In Georgia
men who were recently known as sup
porters Of Gov. Harmon have become
active in the campaign for Chairman
Underwood.
The conclusive evidence Of a COM
munity of interest among the supporters
Of Gov. Harmon, Speaker Clark and
Chairman Underwood is piling up day
by day. This division of territory by the
allied opponents of Gov. Wilson is the
best possible proof Of the fact that the
New Jersey governor is the strong man
in the race

WAR ARM IN THE AIR
Military Aeronautics Subject
of Report to House.
RESPONSE TO RESOLUTION
Secretary of War Preparing State
ment Showing the Development
of Aeroplane Service.

What is expected to be the most conf
prehensive statement on military aero
nautics ever written Is now being pre-
pared by the Secretary Of War in re-
Spouse to a resolution just adopted by
the House The inquiry was from Rep
resentatfve Sharp Of Ohio, and asks for
practically everything the War Depart
ment knows about military aeronautics.
its availability as an arm Of onense and
defense. the number and character Of the
aerial fleets maintained by the various
powers. the number of aeroplanes in the
United States army and the plans that
have been made by the War Department
for developing this branch Of the service
This Is a comprehensive inquiry. but
the most Of the information necessary for
an answer is now In the hands OF the
War Department, where 1t has been ac-
cumulating for the past two years. Prior
TO that one of the standard works on
military aeronautics was the pamphlet
by Maj George o. SQuier Of the Signal
Corps. This was prepared originally as a
paper before the American Society Of
Mechanical Engineers in 1907. 1t came
at an Opportune time, and was such a
thorough and comprehensive statement
that 1t at once became q standard and
was translated by several Of the foreign
governments.
Summary Of Publications.
The gnassFsal for the present report Is
contained IN q mass OF foreign publica-
tions that have been translated for the
purpose-frcm the French. German and
Italian military authorities.
American military attaches abroad
hsve bean collecting this material for a
long time, and tho Secretary Of War Is
glad to submit It to Congress. 1t con-
tatna the plans that have been developed
by the War Department for putting
American military aeronautics on a sat
fsfactory basis. The failure to do this
previously, the officers Of the depart
ment explain. has been due to lack Of
men and money. The money could have
been procured in the military appropria-
ton bill this year, but there was such a
lack Of officers for training that little
attempt was made to push the develop
ment OF tho flying squad. II is believed
the present report will stir Congress to
action in furnishing more oficers. II is
estimated that with the increased de-
mand OF technical work and the absence
of many officers on special details that
the army Is now short about 800 officers
of the number actually needed.
Plans for College Park.
Arrangements are being made at the
signal service ONCE for reopening Col
lege Park. The members Of the flying
squad arc under orders to start from Au-
gusta, Ga. April 1. and will come by spe-
cial train to College Park. Lieut. Thomas
de Witt Milling of the flying SQUAD is
now on the ground preparing for the re-
turn and for reopening the camp.
The first Of the new aeroplanes ordered
for the War Department Will be deliv-
cred May Is. This will be one of the
weight carriers Of the Wright type. The
Wright racer has been ordered delivered

More Horsepower Needed.

Our farmers need to know that
horsepower and machinery are
cheaper than human labor, and that
implements that enable the cul iva
tion of the crops to be done more
rapidly by using two horses 10 one
man will vastly increase the pro-
ductive power of the man. One
mans labor in the south produces
less by far than one mans labor in
the north and west, aawhile the south
has the money crop that should be
the most profitable one in the whole
land. The reason is mainly that the
north uses more horsepower and
more effective and rapid implements.
Add this idea to good rotation,
and cotton farming will be put on
a far more profitable basis.-Pro.
gressive Farmer.
