FREAK APPLE TREE.

Blossoms Half and Half at Its Sweet
Will In Orchard Near Marion, Va.
Marion, Va.-This seems to be sea-
son of freakish manifestations in gar
den and apple orchards of southwest
Virginia. One of the most peculiar of
these manifestations occurred on a
farm a short distance east of Marion.
An apple tree which heretofore had
borne its fruit in the natural and ac-
copied manner blossomed in the spring
on one half Of the tree only, not a
bloom appearing on the opposite half.
Late in the summer, after the first crop
Of fruit had matured and been har-
vested, the tree blossomed on the sec
ond half. the fruit maturing in the
usual manner.

BUSINESS MEN WARMLY COMMEND
HUGHES'S SPEECH OF ACCEPTANCE

The address of Charles Il. Hughes upon
his acceptance OF the nomination for Presl-
dent by the Republican party, maze III NC"
York city last night, met with nearly ap-
proval among prominent bankers ana pus-
mess men of this city who expressed them
selves as being in accord with MS utter
psICes.
Nathan r. Folwell, president Of the Man
ufacturers' Club, declared himself as beins
in accord with everything Mr.. Hughes sald.
"Mr. Hughes has shown that he knows
Just the remedy to apply to our nat'onal
complications. II was excellent. mr.
Hughes was right when he declared that
this country's dealings with Mexico con-
stitute confused chapter of blunders. we
have not helped Mexico. The country Is
prostrate famine stricken and overwhelmed
with woes and strife
"Mr. Hughes Is correct when he says
that the course persued by the present
administration in attempting to control the
domestic concerns of Mexico. This was
intervention We decrled interference and
vet we interefered most exasperatingly
We have even had conflicts and many
of the soldiers of the United States Army
have been sacrificed.
"This administration should have rec
opnized the Hureta regime. Our soldiers
would never have had to be sent TO the
border and Mexico, am sure. would have
righted herself. .,,
"Tn n word Mr. Hughes hit the nail on
the head, in everything he said, and l am
sure he has the support of every stanch
Republican in the country
CHARLES S. CALwEI.L PLEASED.
Charles g. Calwel president Of the Corn
Exchange National Bank, said:
ut is one of the strongest speeches ever
made by presidential nominee. Mr..
Hughes makes II plain that the Republican
party is entirely out of accord with the
Motley OF the present administration with
relation TO the Mexican situation,
81 concur with Mr.. Hughes in his denun-
citation OF the treatment of the Huerta
Government. Huerta was exercising au-
| thorIty as Provisional President OF Mexico,
| He was certainly in fact the head OF the
Government And yet this Administration
refused to recognize him. Every one knows
what the act has led to. The less said OF
| that the better.
'Yes l believe the present Administra-
| ton has been eXtravagant. They promised
economy but we have never had II. 1t is
| about time that we had fiscal reform Mr.,
| HuEhes's advocacy of a simple business-like
| budget | believe will avoid financial waste
and secure for us a proper administrative
| efficiency. II Is about time that business Is
| injected into politics"
STRONGLY FOR PROTECTIVE TARIFF.
John Grlbbel. president of the Union
| League, said:
| Mr.. Hughess speech was mastery set
ting forth OF the Republican position and
| a remarkable analysis of the weakness OF
| the Democratic position. Mr.. Hughes
showed remarkable analytical power In dis
| secting the weakness of the foreign policy
during the last three years. His grasp of
the situation and his vision of the future
were very impressive. He was clear and
concise and showed a remarkable under
standing OF the present situation. His irony
| and satire were very effective

STANDARDIZATION URGED
AT CYCLE MAKERS MEETING
Scarcity of Raw Materials Hampers
Manufacture

ATLANTIC CITY, Aug. Ten or
twelve corporations and Individual firms
turned out 80 per cent. OF the 100000
bicycles produced and sold in the United
States this year. according to reports pre-
sented at the opening session at the Hotel
ST, Charles today OF the National Bicycle
Manufacturers Association. Production OF
bicycle parts, tires, rims and hubs is in
the hands OF great many other manu-
faeturers, but the finished bicycle output,
like the motorcycle. OF which 100000 have
been sold this year Is In the hands OF a
highly organized and concentrated organi-
zatiOn.
The principal complaint OF the manufac-
turers was q scarcity Of raw materials.
Standardization was the chief topic be-
fore the convention today. Adoption OF
standardized parts will greatly simplify
manufacturing and save hundreds OF thou
sands OF dollars In overhead charges, 1t was
claimed. President II. S. Wise, OF Middle
town. o., welcomed the delegates.

U. S. OFFICIALS SCOUT PLOT
THEORY In MUNITIONS BLAST
Probably Peace Fanatics, 1t Is Said,
Not Germans

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-The possibility
OF completely of German agents in the Black
Tom Peninsula explosion resulting in the
destruction of 50 carloads OF shrapnel des-
tined for the Allies. was secuted by De-
partment Of Justice officials today.
The German Government. II was pointed
out, following alleged activities by official
agents at the time OF Boy'Eds recall. EN-.
phatIcally directed German consular agents
to cooperate with American authorities TO
preserve neutrality and, II is said, has ac'
tually been instrumental In bringing Ger
man-AmerIcan conspirators to justice,
II German agency was responsible, II
is the opinion at the Department that II
would only be the act Of an irresponsible
fanatic. Assuming incendiary origin, how
ever, officials are more inclined to attribute
the explosion 10 pacIficIst fanatics.
