POCKET HORSE THOUGHTS

Individual water buckets for horses constructed much on the same as sani- tary dringing cups, have been intro duced at Philadelphia for the purpose of preventing the spread of glanders and similar diseases among stock wat cred at public fountains. The con- tainers, which are made of paper and provided with re-enforced bottoms so that they may be used several times, are arranged so that they may be folded and carried in a coat pocket by driver. They are sold by an an- ticruelty society for slightly more than penny each, and are believed to have done much toward keeping hundreds of horses free from infection.-TiJ Bits.

DECLINE FOLLOWS
 AN EARLY ADVANCE
Closing Prices 1 to 3 Points Down Were Lowest of Day.-Market Opened Steady at Advance
 of , to Points.

New York, June 8.-An early ad- vance was followed by reactions in the cotton market today, with the close steady, at a net decline of l to 8 points.
 The market opened steady at an advance of , to points, in response to higher Liverpool cables and a moderate demand from recent buyers. The weather map, however, showed more favorable conditions in the South, and there was enough realiz- ing to check the upward movement around 9.97c for October. Trading then became very quiet with prices easing off under scattered prices were practically the lowest of the day. There were further crop complaints from Oklahoma Local traders seem- ed to anticipate that the weekly re- port of the Weather Bureau tomorrow would indicate generally satisfactory conditions, except for excessive rain fall in Oklahoma, and in some DOT tions of, north Texas and Arkansas.
 Exports today were 1884 bales, making 1887, 1862 bales so far this sea- son; port receipts, 1851 bales; Unit ed States port stock, 968,42 bales.

Resignation Accepted.

The resignation was accepted by the president. The cabinet then ap- proyed the response which had been prepared to the German reply to the Lusitania note. Acting Secretary Robert Lansing will sign the docu- ment and it will be cabled to Berlin tomorrow. Secretary Bryan will re- turn to private life tomorrow when his resignation takes effect.
 Will Continue Support.
 It was learned that he intends to continue his political support to the president. Rather than sign the doc ument which he believed might pos sibly draw the United States into war, Mr. Bryan submitted his resig- nation in a letter declaring that "the issue involved is of such moment that to remain a member of the cab met would be as unfair to you as it would be to the cause which is near est my heart, namely, the prevention of war.
 The president accepted the resig- nation in letter tinged with deep feeling of personal regret. The let ters constituting the official announce ment of Mr. Bryan's resignation from the Cabinet to private life were made public at the white house at 6 o'clock tonight. They follow:
 My dear Mr. President: It is with sincere regret that I have reached the conclusion that I should return to you the commission of secretary of state with which you honored me at the beginning of your administration. obedlent to your sense of duty and actuated by the highest motives, you nave prepared for transmission to the herman government a note in which

Our judgment has accorded in prac- tically every matter of official duty and of public policy until now; your support of the work and purposes of the administration has been generous and loyal beyond praise; your devo- tion to the duties of your great office and your eagerness to take advant- age of every opportunity for service afforded has been an example to the rest of us. You have earned our af- fectionate admiration and friendship.

ENORMOUS WHEAT
 CROP IS PREDICTED
Farmers of America in Anticipation of European Demand for Grain Planted II Per Cent More
 Acreage of Wheat.

Washington, June S.-A billion bushel wheat crop is indicated for the coming harvest in today's fore cast by the federal crop reporting board Should that enormous quan- tity be harvested, the United States would have upwards of 385,000,000 bushels to supply European demands, which are expected to increase rath- CT than diminish. Domestic con sumption this year will probably reach 535,0O0 bushels for food and I80.O00000 bushels for seeding.
 Immense Total.
 Easing it's forecast on the condi- tion of the growing crop for June 1, the board today estimated the final production of winter and spring wheat combined would be 950,000, ,000 bushels. The actual production will be greater or less than that as condi- tions from June 1 to harvest time are better or worse than usual. A billion bushel harvest, with good growing conditions, is not improbable, in view of the fact that the record crop year of 1912 the prospects increased ST. 100000 bushels from June 1 to har vest.
 Sowed Big Acreage.
 Influenced by the prospective Flu ropean demands for grain, American farmers last fall sowed the largest area ever planted to winter wheat 40, ,169,00O acres-and this spring 19,- 248,000 acres were sown to spring wheat, exceeding last years area by almost 2,000000 acres. Winter and spring wheat acres combined show an increase of II per cent over last years acreage.

WOODROW WILSON" Effective With Cabling.

Secretary Bryan said at his home: "In view of the announcement of my resignation l will say that letters be- ing made public herewith state my reasons, but I will have a more com plete statement hat will be given out when the American reply to the Ger man note is sent probably tomorrow. My resignation takes effect as soon as the note has been forwarded"
 Dramatically Ended.
 MT. Bryan added that he probably would remain in Washington for awhile. Dramatically, the official relation of MT. Bryan with the ad- ministration of the man whose nom ination he assisted so materially in bringing about in the Baltimore con- vention of 1912 came to an end. It caused a sensation in the national capital scarcely parallelled in recent years. Ambassadors ministers and diplomatists, officials of every rank and nation heard the news as it was flashed by newspaper extras tonight.
