Secret Service Man
Robbed and Beaten
Near Yo11kers Line

a young Frenchman, who gave the
name Of Marquis Delasari, was found
with his skull fractured early yester
day at Broadway and 242d Street
by motorists, who took him to St.
Joseph's Hospital, Yonkers. There
he was interrogated during intervals
of consciousness by detectives, who
had been called from this city when it
was discovered that every mark of
Identification, even TO the label il mis-
hat, had been torn from his clothing.
From his somewhat incoherent story
it was gathered that he was connected
with the Secret Service, either of this
country or of France, and had had an
important engagement at place in

JAMAICA, L. l.. Sept. Ex-Governor
Whitman was the principal speaker at
the rally in King Park, which opened
the fourth Liberty Loan campaign here
to-day.
A parade OF military and civic or
carnations was originally contemplate
cd by the committee in charge, but
when opposition to a parade on Sun
day appeared it was decided to con-
fine it to an escort to the Governor
and omit the civilian societies and the
bands. When the Governor, on arrival
to-day, learned of this he inquired
of Captain George ii Kauf, in com
mand of the 120th Precinct, Jamaica,
Why no bands were to be allowed to
provide music for the military organi-
zations which were to participate The
Captain said he was acting under or
ders of Police Inspector Thomas Ryan
The Governor said he wanted the music,
and that Captain Kuatf should provide
the music. They were provided.
About 1900 men were reviewed by
the Governor, including so Omen of the
l51st Infantry from Camp Mills, 25O
sailors, 400 Police Reserves from
Jamaica, Richmond Hill and Wood
haven. and veteran volunteer firemen
row manning the fire houses in the
Jamaica district.
Chairman Percy S. James of the ia
maica Liberty Loan Committee was in
general charge of the arrangements
and Justice James c. Van Siclen, of the
Supreme Court, presided at the exer-
cises. Prayer by the Rev. William c.
Yal Church, opened the proceedings.
Governor said. "The price of victory
involves the sacrifice of human life.
The price OF victory is high, it is true,
but the expense of defeat would be
greater. 1t is going to cost something
to win this war, but it would cost in,
tinitely more 10 lose it. We are not
going to lose 1t. We cannot afford to
lose it.
"Wc pledge ourselves and everything
that VIC have to our holy cause" he
concluded. "lf we cannot give of our
lives and physical strength, we can give
of our means, our money, and pledge
our faith in our government

1t Is cheering TO learn from the
department OF agriculture that in An.
gust there was an Improvement in
spring wheat to an extent which will
add 21,000,000 bushels to the crop.
This will make spring wheat harvest
of 343,0O0,0O0 bushels, or a total wheat
harvest OF S99,000,000. This is l01..
100000 bushels below the expectation
last spring, but 1t is pretty big pro-
duction, just the same, says Buffalo
Express. The wheat situation is bet
ter than 1t has been for two years, but
nothing like the free use OF wheat can
be expected before the end of the war.
With the encouraging wheat report
we have a discouraging corn report
that is, there was deterioration in Au.
gust which cut the prospective crop
down by 31L0OO,000 bushels TO 2672..
100000 bushels. Corn lost III 600. 900
bushels in July. We need all we can
get Of all kinds Of grain and this loss
will be felt, though, of course, not so
severely as would a heavy loss in
wheat.
