STATE MERCHANTS
BUYING HEAVILY
This Gives Railroads Full Car
to Bring Grain to the
Metropolis.
GRAIN IS MOVING EARLIER

Threshing is going on rapidly and
all the railroads are running as heavy
traffic as their equipment will allow.
One feature which will help the
movement of the crops, in the opinion
Of E. P. Hennessey OF the Rock Is
land, is that western merchants are
buying heavily for the fall and winter
seasons and this brings many loaded
freight cars into the west which can
be filled with eastbound grain. The
Union Pacific says that It still has cars
enough for the grain movement. yr14,'.-
The Missouri Pacific has sent out
cards to its agents and regular GUS
toners urging that cars should be
loaded as soon after receipt as pos
sible and requesting consignors not
to order cars for delivery before they
need them.
W. W. Johnston, freight agent of
the Burlington, says that the railroads
are going to be rushed, but he antici-
pates no such problem as all the rail-
roads were called on to handle last
year, when the weather during the
harvest season was so wet that very
little wheat was shipped until Septem-
ber and October and began to con-
fict with the movement of the new
corn

Winnipeg Officials
Deny Extensive
Damage by Rust

Winnipeg, Man, Aug. 3.-Asser-
tons by private grain experts that
black rust and blights have caused
serious damage to the wheat crops
of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, are
denied in official statements issued by
the respective provincial governments
While the unofficial reports declared
the wheat crop virtually was wiped
out in some districts, the Manitoba
department OF agriculture, in a state
ment says today but 10 per cent of
the spring wheat area is affected. The
Saskatchewan government has denied
all reports of black rust, but says
there is some red rust in a few south
ern districts, where inconsequential
damage has been done.
The Manitoba government says the
affected fields are mostly in the Red
river valley and its affluents, between
Winnipeg and the international boun-
Diary, an area sixty miles deep and ex-
tending west as far as Morden. Every
where else in the province excellent
conditions are said to exist.
Even taking into consideration the
unofficial reports, there is every pros
pect of god average yield for the
entire territory, local grain men say.

EASEMENT HANGED
FOR HIGH TREASON
Mocking, Jeering Crowd Lath-
ers About Prison at Hour
Set for Execution.
HE MEETS DEATH CALMLY

London, Aug. 3.--Roger Easement,
former British knight and consul was
hanged at 9 o'clock this morning in
Pentonville jail for high treason. He
was convicted Of conspiring to cause
an armed revolt in Ireland and with
having sought German aid to that
end.
Two hours before, the execution a
crowd of men, women and children
gathered before the prison gates.
Twenty minutes before Easement
mounted the scaffold the great prison
bell commenced to toll. The sound
was greeted with cheers from the
crowd, mingled with some grosns. At
9 o'clock the crowd had swollen to
such proportions that it extended for
two blocks from the prison front.
At one minute after 9 a single stroke
of the big bell announced that the
trap had been sprung. 1t was the
signal for a mocking, jeering yell
from the crowd, which suddenly died
away into dead silence.
Meets Death Calmly.
Easement met his death with calm
courage, according to eye witnesses.
Earlier in the morning two priests
of the Roman Catholic church admin
istered the rites in the cell of the
condemned man, and shortly after
ward little procession, preceded by
the clergymen, with Easement fol-
lowing, a warder OH either side, pro-
ceeded toward the execution shed.
only five yards away. The priests re-
cited the litany of the dying, Case
ment responding in low tones: Lord,
have mercy on my SOUL" .
As the party reached the shed
where the gallows was erected the
special executioner, a hair dresser
named Ellis, approached Easement
and quickly pinioned him: The two
chaplains, the under sheriff of Lon
don and the under sheriff of Mid
dlesex, then took UP their positions
in front of the scaffold. Easement
mounted the gallows steps firmly and
commended his spirit to God as he
stepped on the trap. A moment later
the lever was pulled.
Immediately the trap was sprung
the prison engineer and physician
descended into the pit where, after
the application of the usual tests Case
ment was pronounced dead at nine
minutes after nine. According to the
custom in the case of prisoners
hanged for crimes similar to that of
Easement, his body will be buried in

Moosers Discuss
Means to Continue
Party Organization

indianapolis, Ind, Aug 3.-When
representatives of the progressive
party, who disapprove the action of
the national committee in endorsing
Charles E. Hughes for president, met
here at noon today tc consider the
advisability OF calling another con-
vention to nominate a candidate for
president, sentiment of leaders was di-
vided in regard to what action should
be taken.
A majority of those present favored
putting a third ticket in the field, but
several influential leaders doubted
the wisdom of the action. Every
representative agreed, however, that it
would be desirable to take some ac-
ton which would perpetuate the
progressive party as national politi-
cal organization.
The conference was called to order
by Edwin M. Lee of Indianapolis,
progressive state chairman for In
diana. Matthew Hale of Massa-
chusetts, acting chairman of the pro-
gressive national committee, was
chosen to preside at the conference,
and J. A. Hopkins of New Jersey was
elected secretary.
Chairman Hale was applauded when
he said: "We have come here with
two ideas. We wish to show that we
do not approve of the action of the
reactionary wing of the national conf
mittee in Chicago, June 26, in endors-
ing Hughes for president, and to take
some action to perpetuate the pro-
gressive party"

DASH WITHOUT INCIDENT

Norfolk, Va, Aug. .3.-Somewhere
out in the Atlantic today the German
merchant submarine Deutschland and
allied warships were believed to be
playing hide-and-seek as the andersea
boat sped homeward after passing out
the Virginia capes last night.
The Deutschland submerged a mile
off the coast shortly before 9 o'clock
and so far as known here was unob-
served by the allied warship patrol
guarding the capes against its escape,
One of the last acts of Captain
Koenig and his crew, according to
Captain Hinch of the tug Timmins,
which acted as its convoy from Balti-
more to the capes, was to stand on the
deck of the submersible and give three
rousing cheers for America and the
American people.
The final dash was virtually without
incident. Eighteen of the miles up
the Chesapeake bay, at the crossing
of the Old Point and Cape Henry
channels, the submarine began to gain
speed and soon was hurrying toward
the Atlantic. With only slight de-
lay after reaching the capes, it dashed
into the sea and submerged. Only
one warship, a United States torpedo
destroyer, was sighted by the sub
mersible in its entire trip from Bal
timore.
At Cape Henry today one two-fun-
mel warship was visible lying out be-
yond the three-mile limit.
