Donly the Peoo!e Can Save Me. Am Relying on Them Alone" Says New York Chief Ex-

New York. Aug 11-While Gov. Sul. ger remains reticent, members of the ioint legislative committee which has concluded it's hearings here began drafting a report which it will submit to the legislature on Monday with reference to testimony adduced show ing that the governor had speculated in the New York stock market, using therefor campaign contributions which he failed to include in his sworn statement as required by law.
 In the opinion of Chairman Frawley of the committee and of Eugene course than to recommend impeach- ment proceedings is open to the in- vestigators.

MAY HEAR WITNESSES TODAY
Government Prepares for Speedy Ac- tion in Diggs Case and May Put
 Girl on Stand at Once.

San Francisco, Aug. S-The actual prosecution of Maury l. Diggs, which already has caused national scandal who is charged under the Mann act with transporting Martha Warrington from Sacramento, Cal, to Reno, New, is expected to begin today.
 Last night there was but one juryman to be impaneled. The ques- tions asked talesmen thus far have shown only two things: That the government does not care for bache- Tor clubmen to pass on its case and that the defense is not favorable to gray-bearded fathers of families.
 The trial will not be protracted. The government expects to put forward it's matter-of-fact evidence as plainly as possible Martha Warrington may even be called to the stand today or early tomorrow, thought chief counsel for the prosecution.
 Thus far, Mrs. Diggs, Mrs. Caminet- ti and their children have not ap- peared in court. Marshall Woodwork of the defense is authority, however, for the statement that there has been reconciliation and that the estranged wives will be present in court.

WHEAT CROP SETS RECORD
DROUGHT AND HEAT CAUSE A
 HEAVY SHRINkAGE IN CORN.
Winter Wheat to Exceed 1902 High Mark by 1o,ooo,ooo Bushels, Say
 Government Experts.

Washington, Aug. 11.-Analysis of the latest crop figures and estimates of the government agricultural ex- perts shows that while the drought and heat caused a heavy loss to the corn crop, the yield of wheat will be immense.
 The winter wheat crop is the great est in the history of the country, ex ceeding the 1902 record by 10,O00,O00 bushels, and there is an indicated gain of 15,000000 bushels in the spring wheat crop over the estimates of a month ago.
 A loss of 30O,O0OOOO bushels of corn has resulted from the drought and other conditions since July l, the ex- perts estimated in their August crop report. A total production of 2,672, ,000,- 000 bushels of corn is predicted This is 452,000,000 bushels less than last years crop.
 The general condition of corn is placed at 75.S per cent of a nomal, compared with S69 on July 1. Kan- sas was hit hardest, the condition there having been reduced from S1 per cent in July to 30 on August 1. Oklahoma came next with a condition of A, against S7 in July, and Nebras- ka reported 67, against 91 July l. These three states have almost 19 per cent of the total area planted to corn this year.
 The preliminary statistics show production of 511,000,000 bushels of winter wheat This is the greatest harvest of wheat ever gathered in the United States. exceeding the record crop of 1902 by 10,OOO,000 bushels the estimate made by the department in July.
 Spring wheat, too, is given an in- creased estimate of production, it be- ing 100000 bushels more than the July estimate. With the bumper win ter wheat crop and fairly good spring wheat production, the total har- vest of all wheat is estimated at 744,- 000,000 bushels.
 The harvest of white potatoes, it |. estimated will be smaller by 62,000,- 0O0 bushels than the crop of 1912. A total of 339, ,000000 bushels is esti- mated.

Foreign Committee Meets.

The senate foreign relations com mittee is again considering Mexican affairs behind closed doors. The ma jority of the members are very anx- ious to report a resolution lifting the embargo on arms to the Constitution alists. The president, by the force of his own personality, has been able to keep this resolution from the cal endar, but each day that goes by makes his task more difficult.
 It is not believed that the presi. dents peace plan would be made pub- lie before Monday.
 A cipher message from Mexico City received by one of the men most prom. inent in central South American af- fairs, declared no matter what Lind's plan was, it would fail, and professed to believe that he never would be per mitted to come any farther toward the capital than Vera Cruz.

FALL ATTACKS THE
POLICY ON BORDER

Washington, D. c., March An at
tack upon the policy pursued by the
United States in patrOling the Mex
lean border during the Mexican revo-
Iutions was made in the senate Monday
by senator FAN. OF New Mexico, a
member of the special investigating
committee that has conducted recent
Investigation into border conditions.
Senator Fall declared that the COM
mittee in its investigation along the
Orleans, had come in contact frequently
with cases where the armed forces Of
the United States had been used to
arrest American citizens on American
soil.
THE American troops have been used
to Cypress American citizens in their
own country" said senator Fail, in
stead of being used to protect them
when they were being robbed and muir
dered on this side of the border line
Americans have been thrown into priS-
on and deprived OF life and liberty.
This is not a single instance, but
a condition that has been general along
the border for over a year"
Senator Fall reviewed in detail the
testimony taken by the special COM
mittee. of which senator Smith. OF
Michigan. was chairman.
He said that scores of witnesses res
ident in Mexico testified to the fact
that they had been attacked simply
The United States, he said, had eX-
