Predict Monster CrOp.

Washington, May S.-The greatest crop of winter wheat ever produced in any country, is in prospect for this years harvest. Today's forecast of production, estimated by the depart ment of agriculture placed it's size at almost 900,000,000 bushels in exact figures 899,915,O00 in which would make this years harvest worth $2,- O34,000,000 at the government price guarantee, of $226 bushel.
 Kansas is producing an enormous crop, the forecast of production for that state having almost 22 percent of the country's total indicated out put Oklahoma has forecast of slightly more than 54.000,000.
 The acreage is the largest on rec ord and the area abandoned from winter killing overflows and other countries is extremely low 1.1 per- cent. Growing conditions have been splendid and the crop from April list to May 1st made an improve ment, bringing it to 1O05 percent of normal, which is then ighest condi- tion on record for May 1st. Contin- ued good growing conditions from now to time of harvest might result in crop larger than 900,000, ,000 bushels.

BARNES SECURES 100000 BUSHELS
 CANADIAN WHEAT
Many Mills Now Have More Than They Can Grind
 Before New Crop.

New York, May 8--Julius H. Bar ncs, United States wheat director, announced tonight on his return from Chicago, that he had completed ne gotiations to bring 4,000,00O bushels of Canadian wheat into the United States for distribution to the mills.

 Director Barnes, announced furth- CT that this quantity of imported wheat will be sufficient for those mills which have not provided their stocks up to the new crop.

COUNCIL PLANS PEACE TERMS FOR

German Austrian Delegates Will Await Summons to

(By The Associated Press.)


 While the German peace plenipot- entiaries are digesting the text of the lengthy peace treaty handed them Wednesday and communicating with the Weimar government as to de- .nands made upon Germany by the allied. and associated powers, the council of. four is engaging itself with the formulation of peace terms for Austria and Hungary.
 The Characterization delegation is reported already to have started foo St. Germain, France, there to await the summons to Versailles to learn what is to befall the one-time dual monarchy in the way of the payment of indemnities, the making of re- parations and the relinguishment of territory.
 Estimates have been made in Paris that 5000, 100000 crowns will be de- n,anded as indemnity from Austria Hungary. in addition to the deter mination of frontiers.

Today's results went far toward removing the anxiety felt heretofore by treasury officials over the prog ress of the loan totals toward the to- tai needed. With the speed shown by subscriptions in the last two days continued tomorrow and Saturday, the recorded subscriptions by Saturday night should be between $3,250,000, 900 and $3,500,000,00 officials be- lieve. That will leave a billion or more to come in as result of the final count of last minute sales and in previous loans the amount of these belated subscriptions has run usually higher than billion.
 Expect Late Purchases. Another factor which probably will tend to swell the late figures is that big corporations may render larger subscriptions than they really desire, in the belief that the final allotments their purchases will be pared down. This would result from the treasury's announced intention of accepting no more than $4,500,000000 subscript- ions unless the purchases of $10,000 or less of Victory notes should push the total beyond that figure. No sub- scriptions of $1O,OO0 or less are to be rejected. .
 The feeling of relief apparent about the treasury today is not to be interpreted, however. as indicating any reason why all the subscriptions possible should not be rolled in during the remaining two days.
 A race for the highest standing in percentage of quota at the close of records Saturday has developed be- tween the St. Louis district. which still heads the percentage list, with 87:54, the Minneapolis district, with 1891, and the New York district witf 71.85, New York in the figures tabu
 lated tonight at the treasury was within $30,00O,O0O of a billion dollars

COULD HEIRS ARE
 IN QUARREL OVER
 VAST ESTATE
Charge George Gould With Fraud Resulting in Loss
 of $25, ,000, ,O00.

His son, George J. Gould, chief executor of the estate, is required by a state supreme court order signed today, to show cause why he should not be removed.
 Gould is charged with frauds per- petuated by him even on his own brothers and sisters" and which Ire suited in an aggregate loss to the es- tate of $25,OOO,OO0," in affidavits fill ed in the supreme court by his broth CT, Frank J.

Some Refuse Comment at
 Present Time.
BORAH OPPOSES
 AID TO FRANCE
General Approval is Expressed Ol Naval and Military Terms
 Imposed.

Washington, May S.--As they com-
 pleted their study of the official summary of the treaty of Versailles today, senators began to give eXpres- sion of their views on the momentous document which is now in the hands ] Of the German plenipotentiaries. A few senators, however, still withheld comment, preferring to examine the
 complete text before reaching a def finite conclusion. These included Sen
 ators Lodge, of Massachusetts; smoot
 of Utah, and other republican lead
 CTS.
 Sharp opposition to the proposal that the United States, in consort with Great Britain, commit herself to go to Frances aid in the event that country were attacked was voiced by Senators Borah, of Idaho. and Cur tis, of Kansas, while Senator Sher-
 man, of Illinois, and Moses, of New Hampshire, criticized the league of nations covenant in the treaty. Sen ator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, retiring chairman of the senate foreign rela- tons committee, approved the treaty
 as g whole and said that in his judg-
 ment, the "crowning glory of this great document is the fact that there is embedded i'll it the great constitu- tion of the league of nations" The senator declared the treaty was a monumental work" and measured up "to the highest moral standards of the world," with justice as the basis of reorganization.
 Approve Military Terms. General approval of the military
 and naval terms imposed on Germany was given not only by both repub- lican and democratic senators but
 by officials and diplomats generally They concurred in the view of army
 and navy officers that with the car rying out of the terms Germany would be stripped of every vestige of power necessary for it to disturb again the
 peace of the world.
 Senator BOrah made no comment on the peace treaty itself. confining his statement solely to the proposal
 for a triple alliance between the three leading associated powers. He de
 clared that whether the United States
 should take part in any future Euro pean war, was "a matter which should
 be determined upon the facts wher
 and as they arise and by the particu- lar generation which must bear the brunt of the war and by the intelli-
 gence and the conscience and judg-
 ment of the American people as they see the situation when face to face with it."
 Senator Sherman said the manner in which the treaty has been present ed is a resort to gag rule" He de-
 clared it was "a confession of weak
 ness that the league of nations has
 to be dragged through as an anne, to the treaty of peace," and said he
 would vote to separate the league covenant from the treaty and take a separate vote on each.
 Senator Moses did not regard th<
 separation of the league covenant from the treaty as impossible ant said he preferred the triple alliance
 between the United States, Grea
 Britain and France to the league plar
 as drawn.
