DUn'S RenOrt.

New York. Aug. 21.-Dun's says:
In the monetary complications and
disturbances in the ranks of the labor
constitute the elements of uncertain
ty in the general situation. There is,
however, nothing either unsound or
disquieting in strictly domestic finance
and though further controversies be-
tween employers and wage earners
have arisen, serious and protracted
troubles thus far have been avoided.
The foreign exchange problems, which
attract much attention, are essential
ly those of belligerent nations abroad
and effect this country mainly in the
sense that export trade might be i'm
peded unless relief is afforded.
Because it was attended by consid
cradle loss Of life and destruction of
property, the most adverse event of
the week was the storm that COM
pletely isolated several cities along the
coast of Texas. Shipping and railroad
traffic suffered and growing cotton
was damaged, though to what extent
is not definitely known. Otherwise
the leading crops are doing fine.

The Year 1915 Up to Date Has
Been Exceptional.
It Is the Wettest in the History
of the Bureau.
THE COOLEST SUMMER KNOWN
Temperature Below Normal on
80 Out of 112 Days.
Only Nine Days With Mercury
80 or Above.

Jyp to date this has been the wet
test year in the twenty-nine-year his
tory of the local weather bureau Not
only is this true but the summer sea-
son has been the coolest on record
The average temperature between
May and the present date has been
ga degrees. The previous low mean
temperature was 69.5 in the CORE
spending period in 1891 The normal
mean temperature between May l
and August FL is az degrees. The
temperature has been normal or pc
low on ninety of the last 112 days.
There have been fewer days with a
Temperature of ninety degrees or
more up to date this summer than in
any previous season by a wide mar
gin. The record is nine-three in
May, none in June, five in July, and
one in August Exceptionally cool
seasons were those of 1891 and 1908,
both wet years. In 1891 up to Au-
gust 81 there were 25 ninety degree
days, and in 1908 twenty-three. The
maximum temperature this year was
SO degrees July Is. This is the low
est maximum in twenty-nine years.
The record in 80 degree days in
1914 follows: May. 1; June, IA; July,
II; August, 10. This makes a total
of forty-seven as compared with the
nine this season.
The temperature this year has av-
eraged 1.6 degrees below normal. The
temperature was above normal in the
months of January. February and
April.
The weather has been exceptionally
cool this month. In August, 1914,
there were fourteen days with a tenn
perature of 100 degrees or more.
Ninety-one degrees is the maximum
for this month.
The rainfall to date this year has
been 1886 inches, which is 6.3 inches
more than fell in the entire twelve
months of 1914. The nearest ap-
proach to this record was in 1891
when the precipitation up to August
81 was 1886 inches. Records of
other wet seasons for the correspond
ing period: 1908, 34.54 inches; 1908,
35.11; 1892, 1928. The normal rain
fall between January 1 and August 20
is 2493 inches.
Since May 1 the rainfall record at
Topeka, has been 27.75 inches. The
precipitation has been divided by
months as follows: May, 923 inches;
June, 80; July, 1855; August, 1.56.

the fact, though. He merely accepted
the rumor and acted accordingly.
Fred Murray testified that on one

minutes Joseph Shannon said he had
been discharged for writing a letter he

he didn't like the warden. Most of
his troubles dated from the time he
was dismissed from service and was
sent to job at the Hutchinson re-
formatory by the prison board. Each
OF the witnesses thought the prison
management was a sin and an abomi-
nation.
w. ]. Breidenthal, a Kansas City
banker, led the investigating commit
tee back to reconsideration of the
Clifford case. Breidenthal said that
on one occasion he had gone to the
prison to see Clifford at the request
or the warden. Clifford gave him a
mum Der of drafts for collection. All
of the drafts came back unpaid

Then the case went back to the
question of Botkin's efficiency. More

and suffered a salary cut. Warren
became an employee under the guise
of Democrat and pointed proudly to
his Democratic endorsements. Then
he heard that Botkin was about to
lose his job. At about this time, War

Botkin system of doing things.
One day Warren went to Topeka
with a Republican politician and call
ed on Governor Capper to make GER

might have given the governor to un-

Persons are apt to have a change
of heart here any time was reply of
the witness.
Governor Capper, with Charles Ses-
sions, his private secretary, attended
the hearing for a few minutes. The
governor was not called as a witness
and it was intimated that he may not
be used during the trial. He expects
to leave Saturday for Boston to at
tend the governors meeting.

a decided setback all around.
Prospects of a substantial enlargement

in additional weakness. Furthermore, big

Der at SLOPES, and December $1.0O q

CORN-Corn fell in sympathy with

values. After opening at A@asc decline
to a like advance, with September 75kc
to 761sc and December 637sc to 641kc the
market underwent a pronounced general
sag.
Subsequently enlarged offerings from
the west brought about a further loss.
The close was heavy at A@asc to Is ale
net decline, with September at 74Sc and
December 6312c.
OATS-Rains that hindered threshing
caused firmness in oats. Lasting gains
however, were prevented by the weakness
of other cereals.
Professionalism in provisions
amounted to barely enough to establish
quotations. Pork tended lower but lard
and ribs held steady.
