JOHNSON DENIES KNOWLEDGE
OF ANY BANK ROBBERS

Chandler, okla, Aug. 9.-Charles
Johnson took the stand in his own
defense Monday and DENIED that he
was implicated in the robbery Of the
two banks at Stroud during the
morning of March 27, last. John
son is being tried here on the charge
OF having been a member of Henry
Starr's band of robbers who raided
two banks at Stroud. Johnson as
serted that until he was placed in
the Lincoln county Jail be was un.
acquainted with any member of the
Starr band.
Practically all of Johnsons testi.
mony was corroborative of testimony
given by others who have testified in
his defense. He is endeavoring to
prove that he was about one hundred
miles northeast of Stroud on the
morning of the robbery.
Johnson gave description of a
Lige Higgins, who was a member OF
the band, according to the testimony
of Louis Ester, confessed participant
in the raid Several witnesses have
identified Johnson as one OF the rob
bers and Johnson sought to show
that the witnesses probably thought
he was Higgins.
Several witnesses. while on the
stand, quoted Lee Patrick, vice pres
ident of the Stroud National bank,
as having said following the robbery,
that if suspected a man named Nor
gan had done the work that he now
attributes to Johnson The Morgan
referred to was arrested following
the robbery, but was released when
witnesses failed to identify him as
a participant In the robbery.
Arguments of attorneys were in
progress when court adjourned Mon
day night and will be continued Tues
day morning.
The case will be given to the jury
some time Tuesday, and Bud Max
field, another alleged participant in
the robbery, will be placed on trial

MIGRATORY BIRD LAW
TO BE ENFORCED

Washington, d. c., Aug. with the
approach of the open season for shoot
ing wild fowl, the United States de-
partment of agriculture is warning
sportsmen that the federal regulations
as amended October l, 1914, will be
strictly enforced. Some misunderstanu-
ing has arisen from that fact that
various state laws do not always con-
form to the federal regulations. This
is regarded as unfortunate, but in
such cases the department must in
sist upon the observance of the fed
eral regulations.
The department will consider any
recommendations submitted in good
faith for amendment of the regula-
tions, but will hold no public hear
ings thereon, nor will it amend the
regulations prior to October -, 1915.
1t is the purpose of the department
to conform the regulations to the
wishes of the majority of sportsmen
so far as it can be done and at the

CROP BULLETIN
BYFEDERAL re-
SERVE BOARD
CROP CONDITIONS BETTER AND
GREATER THAN EVER BEFORE,
AND FINANCIAL SITUATION is
SPLENDID.

Crop conditions in Oklahoma were
never better, according to reports is
sued from both state and federal ag-
ricultural department. While the
cotton acreage is not 50 large as
heretofore, the grade is better and
the crop will show big. Wheat is
and the fruit crop is exceptionally
large and the grade better .han usual.
The following bulletin issued by the
federal reserve board is Of interest:
Washington, Aug. 9.-Ceneral bus
mess conditions throughout the cOun-
try continue to show Improvement,
but until crops are harvested the full
measure OF this improvement can not
be judged, according to bulletin of
the federal reserve board, issued We'd
nesday. Crop prospects are unusually
bright and in several reserve districts
war orders have brought boom to
many industries.
The st. Louis district shows little
change. Wholesale orders. how ever,
are more nearly normal and indicate
improvement this fall. TIE wheat
crop is expected to be larger than
the five-year average.
The harvest in the Kansas City dis
trin hn h11t
crop conditions are good. Milling,
live stock and lead, zinc and coal
mines are active. Oil and the whole
sale and retail traders are quiet. The
financial situation is said to reflect
a degree of prosperity unequalled.
The Dallas district cotton CROP will
be materially reduced and much of it
probably will be held under ware
house receipts to save the market.
Live stock, lumber and oil show i'm
provement.
In the Richmond district the cotton
crop is reported later, bat in excel
lent condition, though prices are low.
Business generally is holding a steady
position.
There is a tendency to improve in
the Atlanta district but conditions
do not show material charge. Cotton
mills are at full capacity, and new
mills are under constrIC ton. Agri-
cultural prospects are bright.

SWINE SPREAD
FOOT & MOUTH
Disc ASE
NEW OUTBREAK EMPHASIZES
NEED OF CAREFUL INSPECTION
BY FARMERS AND STOCK
RAlSERS.

Washington, Aug. 10.-1 he suscepti.
bility of swine to the foot and mouth
disease and the failure or the part of
swine owners to recognize its symp-
toms are giving the federal authori.
ties no small amount o. worry in
their cleanup" campaign.
Sore mouth, common indication
of the disease, is an ordinary Sc.
quence of hog cholera, an contusions
on the feet are frequent in swine
which have been driven = shipped
For these reasons little attention is
paid by the owners of swire to these
symptoms, and unless the herd is To-
Gated within suspicious territory foot
and mouth disease may continue in a
chronic form for a considerable length
of time before discovery. The dan
ger of course lies in the ability OF
these animals to disseminate the dis
ease.
Since the first case o. foot and
mouth disease found in herd of
hogs in Michigan, which later per-
mtted the infection of the Chicago
stock yards, hogs more than any other
animal have been responsible for the
spread of the disease. A sew months
ago, in a district containing close to
At
eral thousand were found to be in
fected.
On July 30 foot and mJWth disease
infection was discovered to exist in
herd of 90 cattle within the city
limits of Hornell, Steuben county,
New York. Another herd Of % cattle
pastured across the road, has been
exposed and is under surv, illance. AS
no known cases of the disease had
previously been found within radius
of 70 miles, the source of the infection
remained a mystery until two days
later, when 125 swine, divided among
five herds. were found injected within
half mile of the first discovered
premises. These swine had evidently
had the disease in a mild form for a
considerable length of tine. lnfec-
ton had been carried from these to
the cattle through drainage.
This again emphasizes the need,
the authorities state, for continued
careful examination of all live stock
in previously infected areas, espec-
tally large herds Of swine. Farmers
and stock raisers, by Civ ng immedi-
ate notice of any suspicious cases to
the nearest health Officer, will greatly
aid the authorities in their efforts to
eliminate this pest, which IL allowed
to gain foothold would result in
untold damage to the nation.
Owing to the fact that few animals
are shipped from the sectlon in which
the latest outbreak occurred, it is
believed that no serious or wide
spread complications will result from
this new center of infection.
