NO OTHER DECISION,
 1. SAYS GOV. WHITMAN
Cochran Refuses to Comment
 District Attorney Pleased

New York, July 29.-The opinions of Gov. Whitman, District attorney Perkins and Becker's counsel on Jus tice Fords decision denying third trial to condemned man follow:
 Gov. Whitman: The evidence was conclusive and Justice Ford could have rendered no other decision on the &acts, If I had any doubt about Becker's guilt would pardon him in minute
 District Attorney Perkins, I am very glad that Justice Ford took 50 much time and looked into the case so thoroughly, I am quite confident that there was no merit in the affi- davits, and I am sure that no mistake is being made in carrying out the sem tence imposed by the court"
 w, Bourke Corkran, chief counsel for Becker in his last fight: "I have no comment to make on the decision, and no statement to issue of any, kind. I cannot say whether any fur ther attempt will be made to save Becker's life. No, cannot tell you when shall make a statement, or if l. shall make one at all''
 John F. Mcintyre: T deeply regret Justice Fords decision. There seemed to be a general hope that he might take our view. However, he has seen fit not to, and of course I make no comment on that. I feel strongly, however, that in normal times no jury would convict Becker on the testi- nony of such men as Rose, Webber and vallon. l am convinced he is innocent"

 FOR LEELANAW LOSS
State Department Officials Drafting Note to Germany Claiming Dan,-
 ages for American Ship.

Washington, July 2s.State de- partment offiGisls today were drafting a note to Germany asking payment for loss of }he American steamer Lee lanaw. tofepoed by a German snb- marine or the Orkney Islands last Sunday dn the ground of violation of the Pruksian-American treaty of 1928.
 Preparation of the document fol- lowed the receipt of a report from American Counsel Dennison,. at Dnn- dee, Scotland. which showed that the Leelanaw's captain attempted to es- cape but submitted to visit ad search, after warning shots had been fired. Officials hold that the right, to es- cape is conceded byInternationaI4 law only repeated attempts to evade cap ture, or. forcible resistence being re- garded as affecting the case. p;
 Any doubts in the minds of nif1- cials that the treaty of 1928 had been violated was removed by uhofticial advices which said that the Eerms.n ssubmarine commander was unwilling to jettison the Leelanaw's cargo, and to allow her to proceed. The clain, for damages is similar to the one made in the case of the William F. . Frye.

how the terrific strain told on him mentally, he exhibited when Fatker l Cashin told him at 6 o'clock that Justice Ford would probably give his decision by 10 D. m.
 Thank God, this suspense will soon be over!" exclaimed the condemned man. s5s .1
 Feeling that the day would bring him either death or liberty, for he was confident as ever that a new trial, with it's opportunity to testify was tantamount to ultimate release, he gave most of his personal belongings away to other men in the death house. Among them were. books, gay n/ck- tie and other trifies. TO one of the men sentenced to die in the chair he ! gave a watch chain cupningly woven rom black horsehairi, u fayorite ;ld ornment among the prisoners in Sing Sing. y
 Seemed More Hopeful.
 l As usual, Becker arose early and 1 Immediately plunged, into }. newspaper reading. studying infinitely the stories of his case printed in the morning edi- ricns All in all, he seemed more hope ful after he read the papers, but, as usual, he strove to the utmost not to Let his confidence get the better of him. After he got through with his read- ing. he talked through the bars with some of the other prisoners and with the Keepers, tilted back on their three- legged stools. Father Cashin and Dep- uty Warden Johnson pa1d him one or | two visits during the day Part of the time he spent in writing. There was still a rumor about the prison that I,ecker was working on what would be a post-mortem statement if he went to the chair Friday morning.
 The most expected event of the day for Becker naturally was his wife's visit She did not arrive until after ' o'clock last night, as she had been in consultation all day with her hus-' bands attorneys.
 Electric Chair Test/d.
 There were no specia> Preparations for the execution yesterday! The chair was tested, but this IS ususally done, anyway, and there was no spe- cial significance so far as Becker is concerne8. The death sentence must be executed upon Samuel Haines, the negro murderer, Friday in any event
 Becker still vigorously protested his innocence He stoutly main tained that he never had square deal in the legal proceedings against him. To one close to him he said:
 Swears He Is Innocent.
 II swear I am innocent. do not fear, even if this decioion goes against me, and I have to de. that my name. will never be cleared. l know it will be some day. New York will know that I was utajustly convicted. But do not want td die with a stain against my name."
 { Dr. George w. Farr. the prison doc- tor, once an army surgeon in the Philippines and his assistant, Dr. Henry Mereness, will be in the death chamber Friday. Fathers Cashin and Curry Deputy Warden Johnson and Principal Keeper Frank Dorner will be beside the chair.
 An afternoon paper in OssinrNg published a statement yesterday that John J. Kennedy and George Mese- role. guards were discharged Tuesday because they had permitted Joseph Murphy the convict who saw Cover nor Whitman the other day. in the 1 death house last week to speak to Becker. At the prison this was de- nied It was said the men had been suspended.

of any fighter. Why should Miles be jealous of me?n
 Although giving vent to anger, Gen. eral Sullivan shows his magnanimous nature by saying that he has never been jealous of any fighter, and won ders why his distinguished contem- porary is jealous of him. But the pre- vious part of the message has, we fear, made the breach between the two warriors permanent. Of late years General Sullivan seems to have de- veloped decided "punch" in the use of invective hardly second to his pugilistic prowess. By calling General Miles a "strutting old peacock in his dotage," General Sullivan distinctly scored a knockout.

REDUCING THE CROP

From the Charlotte Observer.
 All the talk about cotton acreage re- duction was not in vain, 9s the govern ment's report shows, but the reduction falls far short of what the most opti- mistic supporters of the idea had hoped. A reduction of 5.s7O,1oo acres. leaving 36,- 535,0o0 under cultivation, means a reduc- tion of about 13 per cent. Under crop cor rditions duplicating those of last year this would reduce the supply by 2,454,07S bales, which will be somewhat of a help in strengthening the market Had the price of cotton gone so low as was feared last fall, and remained there through cot ton planting time. the reduction would doubtless have been. far greater.
 The unexpected demand for cotton as virtual intuition of war undoubtedly had the effect of inducing many growers to chance it again on the one-crop system, or with only small reduction But the com paratively light reduction, accomplished only by superhuman agitation amid condi- tions that were unprecedented, points one moral. It gives an idea of how large was the task faced by the opponents of the single-crop idea in days when conditions were normal and prices were good. But If acreage reduction, put to the test, proves satisfactory 1t will also prove con- tagious. and it may be that the war of Il nations will be remembered in the south as the entering wedge for economic and agricultural independence. The preva- lence of green crops in Mecklenburg indi- cates how thoroughly this county "cot- toned to- the plural crop idea.

From the Nashville Tennessean.
 Philadelphia has appropriated sS5,0O0 to
 pay the expenses of an escort for the
 liberty bell, which is to be exhibited at the
 Panama Pacific exposition. There was
 much parleying over the matter of talk
 ing the bell out of the state. but it was
 finally determined that the relic should become one of the attractions at the big
 show; and now it is on It's way to the Pa cifc shore
 While the original liberty bell is being exhibited at the great exposition, its counterpart, bell sympolic of feminine liberty, Is being carried over the state and exhibited in behalf of woman's suffrage. The suffraglsts have been making a cam paign of the state in behalf of the cause
 they represent, They are telling the peo- pie that their liberty bell is now shackled just as women are shackled, the clapper | of their bell being chained. to be un- I loosed only when the freedom of the | ballot is voted to the women of Pennsyl- vania. The question to whether this bell will lie one of liberty or enslavement will be settled by the people in Novem- Der, when they will decide at the ballot I box whether wmen shall vote or be denied | that right
 l The advocates of womans suffrage are making a brave fight for the cause that
 is dear to their hearts. They have found that equal suffrage is much stronger in I that state than they had hoped for. and | that the amendment to the constitution ] to be voted on in November has q good chance of carrying. Not only the women favor votes for women,'' but large num-
 Der of the men as well favor the change 1 Tn ecause is growing rapidly in all the states, and with continued activity and fervor on the part of the advocates of | woman's suffrage, it may be expected that the constitution of every state in the union will finally be so amended as to grant women equal rights with men at the ballot box.
 l When the women of Pennsylvania had moulded a replica of the liberty bell and | exhibited 1t with its clapper chained 1 to symbolize their slavery they clearly l illustrated their shackled condition where l they are denied a right women should 1 have, and 1t is probable the campaign
 they are making will result in great vic- tory for them in setting up American free dom of the ballot.

The Bumper Crops

Not only are this years foodstuff crops in the United States unusually large, but according to the government report as of July l the money value of these crops gives promise of reach ing new high records. The corn area is greater by 500,000 acres than in any previous year.
 It is estimated that the corn yield will be nearly 3,O00,00o, ,0O0 bushels 06,000, ,000 bushels greater than the last 10 years average, and Al 100000 greater than the 1914 production. The outlook for the billion bushel wheat crop continues favorable.
 The potato crops-Irish and sweet are growing on record acreage. Bumper harvests sometimes bring low prices, but it will be different this year.
 The farmers will get prices for all food products that will add greatly to the wealth of the country. Every industry and every line of mercantile trade is already feeling the stimulat- ing effect of the splendid crop condi- tions and prosperity will be greatly in evidence next fall

Interest in High Class Music

After spending several days in Bir- mingham and meeting many musicians and music lovers, am impressed with the advance that this city has made in its ap- preciation of musical art said Wendell Heighton, manager of the Minneapolis Symphony orchestra.
 When I was here with the orchestra in the spring of 1912 there was consider able interest in symphony music as evi- denced by the large and discriminating audiences that attended the four con certs we gave under the auspices of the local festival committee: but I am told that since then the number of enthusias- tie eoncert-goers has grown fast, and that all fine attractions draw capacity houses.
 "The fact that Fritz Kreisier has been engaged by the Music Study club Tor a re- oital in March certainly speaks well for musical conditions here, when 1t Is re- membered that this renowned vIornist receives $1200 for his performance.
 "I have arranged to bring the entire Minneapolis Symphony orchestra south -S5 men-in February, and ex- pect to close a contract with the Music Study club for one concert here Ours will be the largest and most ex- Assuming that we will play in Birmng ham, this will be one of only four south ern cities embraced In our tour, the others being Memphis, New Orleans and Louis Vilie'7

Crop Diversificution Products

Apropos of the crop diversification movement which has taken such a strong hold on Alabama, J. A. Van Hoose tells the following story:
 "A merchant in one of the interior towns of the state, who had taken a very active interest in this move- ment and who was closely watching it's effect in the territory around him, observed one morning in front of his store a long, lank hun gry-l looking oountryman, driving an equally un- gain1y looking mule. and thinking that there might exist in this outfit an opportunity to impress a new subject with his ideas on crop diversification accosted the countryman and asked if he had anything to sell.
 Yep he replied Well. perhaps I can help you to sell it. What have you got?'
 "1 have got some lye hominy, some turnip greens and a basket of pups. My wife told me to take them no count houn' pups and drown 'em, but I lowed some darn fool town feller might want to buy em, so I fetch 'em along. Say, mister, I will sell you them pups cheap.
