HELD IN GERMANY.
No Americans Will Be Permitted To
Leave During Mobilization.

Washington, d. C.-No Americans
can leave Germany for the present.
Through the German Embassy at
Newport, the State Department has
been informed that during the prog
ress of mobilization no foreigners will
be permitted to depart. The German
order applies alike to men, women and
children, although its purpose is to
prevent the flight from Germany of
men eligible for military service under
pretext of citizenship The inclusion
of women and children in the decree
is explained by the apprehension that
valuable military information regard
ing the process of mobilization and
especially the points of concentration
of the German army forces might be
conveyed to the enemy by women.

Tulsa, Ok-a.. Nov. 5.-The money

Of Charles r. Reuter-, on the night
when he was murdered and about
which SO much was said during the

D. Mackenzie were found in the Tur-
ley road north of Tulsa, by an oil
we'll driller Sunday. Information to
this effect leaked out from the county
attorneys office tonight Although
efforts were made 10 cover the affair.
1t is the opinion OF officials here
that the finding Of the much-sought-

Bud Bellows story regarding the
place where Baker hid the 5: oils was
corroborated in every particular. will
be OF great value 10 the prosecution

the plot ending in his death.
Tom Miller. the man who found the
diamonds and money, Monday night,

the confession Of Bellew and will
serve to materially strengthen that

STATE CORN CROP
1O0,0OO,000 BU.
SANTA FE RAILROAD ISSUES Es-
TlMATE ON 1912 cRoP-KAFFtR
CROP FIFTY MILLION.

Guthrie. Okla. NOV. THE cfG-
ella. estimate Of the santa Fe rail-
road IS just out and places The yield
Of The Oklahoma corn crop for this
season at l0O.oo6,o0u bushels The
estimate Vas compiled from a large
number Of local estimates made by
station agents along the lines il the
state. and is regarded as about as
good pre-haryest glage as could
5e had. These figures ale compiled
by The road for the purpose OF as
certaining how much rolling stock
viii be required to handle the out
put. and, as no incentive 10 exagger-
alton can be assigned TO the work.
the report is causing considerable
pleasure in commercial and indus
trial circles, indicating as it does
that the yield IS far in excess oI
their most sanguine expectations.
At the present price Of corn crop
OF 100. 600. 900 bushels in Oklahoma
this season would enrich the state
bv $4,000. 600 to s70,00O,0O0, which
is 10000. 600 in excess OF the valua'
ton of any previous years output.
Other official and semi-official re-
ports seem TO corroborate the fore
cast OF the Santa Fe, and OF the
half dozen accredited ones so far
delivered the lowest does not place
the yield below 70.0O000o bushels
/ the latter figure being quoted by
Secretary c. F. Prouty OF the Okla
| homa Grain Dealers Association
| who adds the suggestive reservation
and maybe more" The natural in
ference from these accredited fore
casts is that Oklahoma is just now
harvesting the largest corn crop il
its history. at least 80 per cent lar
ger than the crop of 1910 and vastly
larger than that Of 1911.
While the Santa re corn ccoi
estimate is spectacular, a genuine
optimistic surprise Is furnished oy
the forecast OF q $4,000 OOoco-5usAe
crop Of kanir corn. which practical
/ ly assures 4 crop OF 100 per cent in
advance o. any previous one and as
. signs Oklahoma to the second place
in the list OF American production
. ranking second only to Kansas
The estimate Of wheat is $4,000
coo bushels and cotton l,0o0o
bales
Il these forecasts on four leading
crops prove approximately correct
the 1912 crop production in the state
will exceed 100000, 600
