Advocates of Woman Suffrage II
Senate Are Busy.
Present Indications Are That Resolu'
ton Will Come to Vote on
Thursday.

Washington, May 27.-Opponents of
woman suffrage succeeded in blocking
efforts to expedite senate consideration
of the constitutional amendment reso.
luton passed last week by the house,
but supporters plan to renew the fight
Wednesday with the hope of bringing
the measure to vote Thursday.
After the senate convened Senator
Watson of Indiana, new chairman of
the Woman Suffrage committee, called
up motion to take the resolution from
the committee and place 1t on the sen.
ate calendar. Opponents resorted to
parliamentary tactics to prevent .
vote. 81
During the discussion opponents init
mated that there was no doubt Of SUI
ficient votes to insure passage of the
suffrage resolution and supporters ex-
pect to pass it Thursday after it has
remained on the calendar for day, as
required by the rules.
Before the senate met the Republi-
can conference called to consider COM

Monarchy Are in Peculiar
Position. 1'
WORKING ON SOLUTION
Council Of Four Received Protests
sympathetieaiiy and Referred Mat
ter to Preparations SubcommIs-
f., sion for RehearinQ.

Paris, May 27.-T The reparations
commission gave a hearing to repre-
sentatives of the new states carved
out of the former Hapsburg monarchy
on their objections to being held re-
sponsible for their share Of the pre-
war debt, the war debt, the war issue
of currency and reparations and re-
quired to compensate Austria and
Hungary as they will be constituted
in the future for the value of the pub
lie buildings and property inside their
limits. F
The protests were met sympathetic
cally by the Council of Four, which
sent the question to the Preparations
sub-commission for rehearing. This
submission will be supplemented by
Franco.B British representatives, who
are understood to be opposed to any
change. The British representatives
delegated are General SHUTS and John
NJ. Keynes and the French are Captain
Andre Tardieu and Louis Loucheur.
It is believed new report will be
made exempting the new states from
any payments on account of repara-
ton or public property taken over.
The prime factor in the negotiations
has been the fact that about 100000
900 of the Austrian pre-war debt is
held in France, and the cabinet has
promised to procure repayment, to its
nationals. . r .s3a -.s.5 ~

ing a good stand and development
Indications are that the acreage devoted
to the sorghums will be considerably less
than in 1918. Planting was not entirely
finished at the time of this canvass.
The first cutting of alfalfa amounted
to 1,6250O0 tons, or an average of 1.32
tons to the acre. A large proportion, pos
sibly 80 per cent of the hay. was dam
aged by rain. Weather has been favor
able for growth of the second cutting, but
a great deal of injury has been inflicted
by the variegated cutworms, while grass
hoppers are also causing more or less
damage in most of the counties of the
western half of the state 1t is estimated
that these two pests have damaged the
second cutting 40 per cent Cutworms
have. in not a few cases, caused total loss
of at least one cutting.
The states acreage in potatoes is prob
ably about 1900 acres less than that of
last year, when 1t amounted to 6S.S5S
acres. The general condition of the crop
is given as 901 per cent, as compared to
ola per cent in May.
Pastures are uniformly excelle N t.
Meadows give promise of yields of hay
averaging III tons to the acre, and OF a
total production of 1,1s6.0O0 tons, as
against 694, 600 tons last year.
Table of Crops.
The following table shows, by counties,

harvested this year in Kansas, based on

FURNISHED by the Topeka Board of Trade)
Chicago, June 27.-The Tri bun e:
GRAIN: There is a growing disposition
among most of the trade to look for irreg-
ularly lower prices for grains and pro-
visions due to the high price levels,
decrease in the trading the past few days,
and other conditions. Action of the gov
plies of flour and lard at Baltimore are
also a factor. Crop reports on the whole
are not being backed with sufficient buy
ing orders to create the same enthusiasm
that has existed among the bulls of late.
While lower prices may come for time,
corn bulls expect that ultimately they Will
go much higher on actual scarcity. Recent
posing of corn out of condition here,
with fears that more may go the same
corn held in elevators there is heating
tend to create uneasiness among holders
of July and they have sold freely the past
few days, weakening that delivery more
than the others. out of the $4,000 con-
tract corn in store here at close Of last
week, receipts for over 100000 have been
cancelled. There has been 1S5.000 posted
so far and 100000 sold to go to store this
week. 1t leaves a small stock here which
through the summer with be light. One of
the best posted members of the board after
a careful digest of all the various crop
reports, both public and private, said the
complaints corn and oats were nothing
out of the ordinary on the whole. In
fact, in many instances, they are rather
early in complaining of damage to corn.
A little damage to oats is probable; A
new record was made for flax seed at
Duluth yesterday. it crossing the IS per
bushel mark. Scarcity is the greatest

HANG A NEGRO
Mississippi Mob Then Burns
Body on Railway Trestle.
Confessed to Attacking Young
Woman-White Man Killed.

Ellisville, Miss, June 27.-John
fairfield, negro, confessed assailant
of a young white woman, was lynched
by mob here Thursday afternoon.
fairfield was taken to the railroad
trestle, where he committed the crime
to a girder. His body was then
burned.
fairfield was lodged in the Jail here
after his capture this morning in
cane brake near Laurel after pursuit
by posses which continued undated
since the day of his alleged crime on
June 5. Early this afternoon crowds
were assembling and leaders made no
secret of their intentions to lynch the
negro who, officers at the Jail said,
probably would not live more than
few hours owing to gunshot wounds
received at the time of his capture.
The authorities appeared pOwerleSS to
control the crowds and could onlv ap
peal to them to let the law take its
course. Leading citizens when reports
were spread that plans were being
made to burn the negro, appealed to
the crowds not to attempt such action.
fairfield, it was stated by the Of
ficers, confessed to the crime and con-
fided the names of the negroes who
aided him. Two pistols and twenty
dollars were found in his pockets
when he was captured. A subscrip-
ton list has been started for the
young woman assaulted by the negro.
Nearly a thousand dollars was raised
within few hours. During the hunt
for the negro which continued un-
abated for the past ten days one white
ma n was killed and four other per-
sons were injured as a result of mis-
under stood signals or failure to obey
commands of posse members Negroes
aided the posses in the search for the
fugitive
