September 80 and 30, which left thu
farmers crops in very bad condit;
Although the crop loss will be large
- a result of the storm, I think thai
the loss can be minimized to consider
able extent if the farmers gather the
remainder Of their crops as soon as the
fieldstare dry enough to permit.
From the conditions which we have
confronting US, it will pay all Of the
farmers to try to plant some cover crop
such as oats, burr clover, or crimson
ei,ver for grazing purposes and as cover
sroDs during the winter. DO not puI

LEBAUDY IN sANTTARIUM.
First Emperor of the Sahara" Loses
Mental Grip.


New York. Aug. 1S.-Jacques I.e-
haudy first emperor of the Sahara,
is in a sanitarium at Amityville, l.. l.,
after chase to beat the best in
movies. Lebaudy. once one of the
most picturesque character that ever
wandered Europe. was taken to the
sanitarium with the consent Of Mrs
Lebaudy who was acting upon the ad-
vice of physicians.
Lehaudy was known In most of the
capitals of Europe for his eccentrici-
ties. He has been living in the mill
lionaire colony at Old Westbury and
recently his eccentricities have be-
come so pronounced that Sheriff Pet
tit was notified.
He found Lebaudy arrayed in an
officers uniform and bright red sash
On his head was cooked hat and
he was riding a fine horse.
Acting as Lebaudy's aides were two
telegraph messenger boys. whom Le-
baudy had summoned to his place by
telephone. The boys said Lebaudy
made them discard their messenger
uniforms and put on old army uni
forms. With these reinforcements he
was guarding the right Of way and
defying the deputy sheriffs

VIRGINIA DISTRICT
LEADS NATION IN GAIN

Washington, Aug. 1s.--The virginia
Customs District. composed of the ports
of Richmond. Petersburg. Norfolk.
Newport News and Cape Charles with
headquarters at Norfolk, led the ma
tion In the size OF it's gain in total
foreign commerce and exports during
the fiscal year of 1918. dts total for
eign commerce jumped from $50. 0oo.o
In 1914 to sss.eoo,ooo In 1915, gain
of nearly 400 per cent. while its ex-
ports jumped from s2s.ooo.oo0 to $780,
100000. gain of more than 800 per
States eauaiIed this percentage of
gain.
The Virginia Customs District also
Jumped from eighteenth place In
amount of exports in 1914 to eleventh
place in 1915, passing Savannah. Mo-
bile. the Florida ports, the Vermont
ports and Dakota export centers. She
was only $4,000. 900 shy OF the 500, 000,-
900 class in total foreign trade, In
which are the ten big ports of the ma
ton
The Virginia districts gains were
caused by the large expectations of
horses and grain to the European war
ring nations. The Chesapeake and Ohio
and the Norfolk and Western shipped
millions of bushels of grain through
Norfolk and Newport News, while these
two lines and the virginian dumped mil
lions of dollars of coal for export The
biggest purchases OF horses for the
allied armies were sent through New
port News on account of difficulties the
English and French inspectors had at
Baltimore with the Society for the Pre-
vention Of Cruelty to Animals As a
result of this, the shipment of horses
from the West was diverted from Bal
timore to the Virginia ports.
Comparison of Years.
A comparison of the total foreign
trade for the fiscal years of 1914 and
1915 Is as follows:

No CHANGE IN DUPONT
STRIKE SITUATION YET
Recognition of Union Seems to BE
Chief Issue-Pickets Placed. But
No Disorder Occurs.

Especial to The Richmond Virginian.
Petersburg. Va. Aug. ls.-There
has been no change in the strike
situation OF the electrical work
ers who walked out at the Du Point
plant at HopeweIl. now nearly a week
ago. A large number of the strikers
are still in Petersburg. and meetings
are being held almost daily. Officials
Of the International Brotherhood OF
Electrical Workers who are in charge
of the local situation assert that they
are pleased with the outlook and
claim within few days the Du Pont
company will be forced TO comply
with their demands to recognize the
union.
Those in charge claim further that
they have placed men at all railway
stations to inform new men who are
coming In of existing conditions, and
that within the past few days num-
bers Of men who had come here and
TO Hopewell to go to work at the plant
have been held out. 1t liz stated here
that the strikers have rented quarters
where they have their meals prepared
and where they invite all new men
to get their meals that arrive with
out funds.
There has not been the slightest
disorder among the men here or at
Hopewell. and 1t would be difficult for
the closest observer to note that there
is a strike on except for an occasional
gathering of the strikers at the Bijou
theater here, where all their meet
ings have been held

M Nav York. Aug. Is.--The stock

aAsnts Higher prices were the RUE
V&nni common making new high
record at 77s-s But the new ad-
evanc ran into heavy selling This
selling was well absorbed. by noon
prices had scored fairly important
reaction. The trading element helped
the movement along. 1t soon became
apparent that fresh sales had not
been excited by the lower prices, and
in the afternoon the market was bid
I'm sharply Several new specialtes
played a prominent part in the re-
covery, and the whole list came back.
Closing quotations exhibited no really
important losses anywhere.
In short, the days trading testi-
aed to n heavy volume of profit
taking. the heaviest since the latest
stage OF the upturn began. Prices
have had a great advance, and the
professional element operating on the
long side is inclined to take small
profats and switch its position rapidly
