STEAL THE PICTURES
Scenes in Connection With Sundays
Funerals Will Not be Exhibited in
Moving Pictures.

Calumet, Mich, Dec. 30.-Only
two out of score Or more of wit
nesses testified before a coroners
jury yesterday that the man who
caused the Christmas eve disaster
here wore white button like the
badge of the Citizens Alliance.
In the opinion of Anthony Lucas,
prosecuting attorney Of Houghton
county, who conducted the examina-
ton of witnesses, facts well estab-
lished, were that an eXcitable men,
ber of the audience raised the cry,
that there was no actual fire in the
hall and that the doors were open
and the stairway clear when the pam
ic started.
"All we want is a finding based
upon facts developed at the inquest" "
said Mr.. Hilton. "T'he identity of the
miscreant who started the mad rush
fer tire stairs is of paramount i'm
portance and we intend to do what We
can to clear this up"
Moving-pictures which had been
taken of Sundays big funeral prob
ably will not be exhibited. The ope-
rator reported that his room in a To-
cal hotel had been broken into and
the films stele, The case was found
several blocks away from the hotel
in the middle Of street. but beyond
this circumstance the local police
said they had no clew to the details
of the robbery.
At Federation headquarters there
was no hesitancy in laying blame fer
the disappearance of the films on
the same spirits in the community
who sent President Meyer out of the
district. The theft was denounced as
an attempt to stifie publicity for the
strikers.

Six Million Tillers of the Soil

in History.

Cost of Living, However. Remains the
the Same-Figures as to Production
and Prices Analysed.

Washington, D. c., 30.-Ten billion
dollars worth of products, $5,000,-
10000 0of cash income-a bumper
year in spite of dh'oughts and other
setbacks-is the 1913 record of
6,000O00 Americans farms.
The most successful year of hus-
bandly in the United States brought
forth s6,1O0,OO0O,O0o worth of crops,
of which $2,s96,OO0,oOo were repre-
sented by cereals alone, and $780,
100000 worth of animals sold and
slaughtered and animal products.
The value of the 1913 crops is twice
as great as that of 1899; more than
81 100000 more than 1909 and
substantially greater than 1912. Of
all the crops, however, it is estimated
that SO per cent. will remain on
farms where they were produced, and
that 20 per cent. of the animal pro-
duction will remain. On that basis
the cash income ois estimated by the
Department of Agriculture art $5,S47,-
100000.
But despite a record year of crop
value-although the record of pro-
duction has fallen-and the fact that
the number of farms has increased IL
per cent. since 1910, until there are
now estimated to be 6,6OU,0G0 Farms
in the country, the department, in a
discussion of the subject made pub
lie today, does not take the view
that a lower cost of living will fol-
low as consequence.
