RAIN IS HOLDING
BACK HAY CROP
IN WEST ESSEX
Outlook for Vegetables Good.
$4,000 Cabbages Set Out
on One Farm.

The showers that have visited West
ern Essex and Morris county recently
have caused considerable trouble to
the farmers who are anxious to get
their hay crops in. The farmers raise
large quantities of hay for the mar
kets in Paterson, and continued dry
weather is needed to bring the crop
up to the standard. Although the
damage to the crops is very small
much of the farmers time is taken up
in trying to keep the hay dry
The outlook for the vegetable crop
is very good Most of the farmers
from the section named predict large
crops. On one farm in the eastern
section of Morris county $4,000 cab
bage plants have been set out. They
will be brought to the Newark market
up as late as the Christmas holidays.
To keep the plants until that time it
is necessary for the farmer to cut the
heads, leaving them on the ground
and then place covering of hay over
them After this is done earth is
thrown on top of the hay, thus keep
ing the plants from freezing.
The potato crop will be very large,
as the weather conditions have been
excellent. The farmers were dsap-
pointed this year in their strawberry
crops, as the late cold weather held
back the South Jersey berries, which
brought them in the market at the
same time as the berries from west
ern Essex and Morris county. An
other difficulty the farmers had with
the berries was that they would not
stay solid until they reached the mar
ket owing to the fact that the show
ers made them very juicy.
The peach crop this year will be up
to the standard. From the present
outlook it is thought that peaches
will bring a dollar basket wholesale

Another Setback for Plan
to Bring Fight Films Here

NEW YORK, July 2o.-Attorneys
for L. Lawrence Webber received
word from Philadelphia yesterday
that the United States Circuit Court
of Appeals had handed down de-
cision in the case which Webber
brought against the deputy customs
collector of Newark, N. j., for AN in
junction restraining him from pre-
venting Webber bringing into the
United States the Willard-Johnson
fight films. The decision sustained
the constitutionality of the law
against the importation of fight films.
Benjamin F. Spellman, one of the
attorneys, announced that an imme-
date appeal will be taken to the
United States Supreme Court. Mr..
Spellman said that a motion to have
the case preferred would be made as
soon as the court convenes in Octo-
ber, and he expected a final decision
would be reached late that month or
early in November.

VLADIVOSTOK, July 2O.-Twenty
thousand American freight cars and
four hundred American locomotives
are due here from the United States
within the next two months to re-
lieve the congestion of supplies des-
tined for the Russian armies at the
front. The army corps on the Ger
man Austrian battle line need guns,
rifles and ammunition; Vladivostok
will supply them. They need armored
cars, many hundreds of them, and
Vladivostok will give them these.
They need Dynamite; they need pig
lead and pig copper; they need cot
ton to be made into clothing; they
need food, and Vladivostok hopes to
see to it that they get it all.
The guns and rifles and ammunition
are arriving from Japan and the
United States by the steamer load.
The armored cars are coming by the
hundreds from the United States.
They are being made at Detr>$ and
Cleveland and other points, and they
are coming out here mostly by way
of Seattle on vessels which sail direct
to Vladivostok. So also is lead. cop
per and dynamite. AS for the cotton,
it is coming out from New York via
Panama in such vast quantities that
more than anything else it has caused
this terrific congestion of supplies
which has forced Russia to place rush
orders for locomotives and cars to
get them off to the front.
From Great Britain have come
guns for the navy. They arrive by
steamer and then they are shipped

CREDITORS OF
M|CHAELS WILL
GET S24O,OOO.
Sale of Stock and Fixtures in
Bulk Approximation
Sales Go Over.

Judge Cecil H. MacMahon, receiver
for Oscar Michael & Co., submitted
his report of the auction sale of the
assets of the bankrupt concern to
Referee DeCoster today Some of tho
sales were disapproved, on the recon-
mendation of John A. Bernhard at
torney for the receiver. on the ground
that the amounts were far too small,
and the consideration of part of the
sales was set over until tomorrow
afternoon at O'Clock.
When all of the affairs of the con-
Germ are settled up, it is estimated
that Judge MacMahon will have ap-
proximately S240,0O0 for distribution
among the creditors This includes
all of the assets.
The sale of the fixtures to Herman
Gold, an auctioneer, for $500 was
confirmed as was the sale of the
stock in bulk to the same buyer for
1915. The bids for the same stock
in separate parcels to various parties.
amounting to s1,620 was disapproved.
1t was said today that Gold had
offered the trustee $50 to be relieved
of this last sale, but that this was
impossible. The bid of 81, ,165 for the
cash-tube system was not approved.
as it was said that the trustee could
not see his way clear to give a clear
title to this. If he could, the tubes
would be worth $4,000.
The bids, amounting in the aggre-
gate to $4,000, for the horses, wagons,
harness and automobiles, will be con-
sidered tomorrow afternoon. 1t was
said that these went too cheaply.

Criminal Proceedings May
Follow Investigation of
Rock Island ReceiyerShip

WASHINGTON, July 20.-Sugges-
tions that criminal proceedings may
grow out of the Interstate Commerce
Commissions recent investigation of
the Rock Island railroad affairs were
freely heard in Washington Today.
No information has yet been laid
before the department of justice, but
some of the record made from the re-
cent testimony before the commission
in the Rock Island matter will prob
ably be referred to the attorn.J gen
eral for him to consider whether or
not it does not afford ground for
criminal action
At the Interstate Commerce Com
missions offices there was no dispo-
sition to discuss the matter by those
in authority to speak, but no donials
were made.
1t is intimated in an official quarter
that the matter is still under Ccn-
sideration.

Cotton Market

NEW YORK, July 20.-This morn
ing's weather map failed to show as
much rain as expected in the South
west, anG Liverpool was relatively
steady, but after opening steady at a
decline Of l to 4 points, the cotton
market here eased off under local
pressure and Southern selling. Pri-
vate predictions for showers in Texas
and the favorable average of private
crop reports seemed to encourage Of
ferings on the decline, which carried
active months about to 8 points net
lower. Liverpool bought on this set
back, causing rallies of 8 or points
from the lowest after the first half
hour
Reports of showers in the South
west were followed by further set
backs during the middle of the morn
ing, but prices steadied up toward
midday on covering and talk of high
temperatures in Georgia, with active
months selling back to within a point
or two of last nights closing figures.
Trading was very quiet during the
early afternoon and fluctuations were
irregular, with prices ruling about 3

BUSY DAYS AHEAD
FOR THE ATHLETES
Forming of Club and Indoor
Meets Among Present
Plans.
ANDERSON is INTERESTED

Something big on the line of ath
letics is due for this city during the
fall and winter months. Carl Ander
son, the physical director Of the Cen
tral High School, who is also coach
ing the athletes of the Y NJ. C. A.
is making an effort to interest local
men In tho building up OF a strong
athletic organization. This plan has
been tried before, but as a rule 1t
lacked the necessary support and fell
fiat.
Another plan which will likely be
carried out is the arranging for ath-
letic meets which will be held in
Palace ball room at Washington and
Bleecker streets. The North Jersey
Athletic League, 1t is said will con-
duct an indoor meet each month. The
first meet under consideration is one
in which the Anti-Tuberculosis So
ciety and the North Jersey Athletic
League will combine. The Palace ball
room Is not such large place and
distance events would probably be
eliminated
Each year sees a growing interest
IN athletics in this city, and with the
zoVth anniversary next year. there
promises to be plenty of activity. An
derson believes that Newark should
nave a representative club since there
appears to be a fine chance of the
National Amateur Athletic Union
championships coming here next year.
Providing he can interest several of
Newarks prominent men in the or
ganlzlng of club, Anderson will go
ahead with his plans
One of the drawba cks which has
cropped up in this city every time
talk Is started of having a big club
ON the plans of the New York Ath-
letio Club and the Irish American
Athletic Club is the lack of facilities
1t has been a most difficult problem
to interest local boys to of1iliate here,
owing to the fact that there is not
the luxuries that go with the mem
bership of the big Manhattan organi-
cations.
To start out with, there Is not the
instruction which an athlete would
get in New York with his member
ship card. Anderson would be willing
to coach tho boys providing they got
together and worked as q team The
North Jersey Athletic League, COM
posed of local and suburban clubs,
appears to be getting stronger each
month. There are many athletes in
the city and suburban towns who are
making rapid strides in the game.
II is probable that a member of the
Y. M. C. A track team will appear
before the athletic committee of the
Committee OF One Hundred, in charge
of the celebration of the 250th ami
versary of the founding of Newark,
when that organization meets tomor-
row night in the Kinney building.
1t will be pointed out that Newark
is without a representative organIza-
ton, and help will probably be asked
in that line from the committee.
