: Farmers ard agriculturists In many
parts of the United States are to feel
the effects of the war in Europe, &c
cerd!ng TO statements of the Department
of Agriculture, for the reason that the
conflict Is bringing about great short

Americans Say Fifty Zeppelins Are
Ready to Start From Berlin.

LONDON. September 8, a-m.-Two
American oil engineers who have reach
ed London from Roumania via Budapest
and Berlin bring some interesting
stories Of the scenes they witnessed on
their trip. Breslau and, in fact, the
whole of Silesia, they said. was heavily
mined, and they also witnessed great
aerial activity in Germany.
Food was extremely cheap in Berlin.
they said, and all restaurants, even the
best, had largely reduced their tariffs.
Business was proceeding as usual.
though recruiting stations in Inter den
Linden had hundreds Of men waiting
to be taken into the army. They visited
the flying station and estimated that
more than fifty Zeppelins were in readl-
ness to start at any time. There were
also a hundred or more aeroplanes, while
there was immense activity in con-
structing new craft and training men.
Scores Of aeroplanes were seen in the
air at one time by them, each carrying
learner.
From the general conversation they
heard while in Germany they gathered
that there would be a combined attack
by the naval fleets at an suspicious
moment.

The Clayton antitrust bill, the second

to sixteen, seven republicans and one
progressive voting with the democrats
in support of the bill. The bill. which

The democrats by common consent
and with the tacit approval of the Presi-

ing the Rayburn bill regulating the Is
sue of stock and bonds by railroads at
the present session, owing to the I'M
settled condition of finances in this coun-

two houses of Congress, and probably
will be reported back for final action
within a week or ten days.
In the meantime the conferees on the
federal trade commission bill, the first
of the antitrust measures to pass both
House and Senate, have about completed
their work, and a report on this measure
is expected within few days.
