To Be Held Wednesday

Washington, July 2,--(Special Tel
egram. )-Senator Norris said today
that while he was opposed to any
further hearings on the grain bill.
which passed the house some time
ago and which the committee on
agriculture has amended by substi-
tuting the so-called Norris bill, he
has yielded to the opportunities of
Chicago operators and additional
hearings on the bill would be held
Wednesday of next week.
$50 far as | am concerned further
hearings are unnecessary" said SEN
ator Norris, chairman of the conf
mittee on agriculture, "but interested
parties have made representations
that certain features of the trading
in futures bill have not been properly
ventilated and of course yield TO
their request for an additional day
in court. My judgment is that all
has been said on the bill that can be
said"

Civil Engineer
Drowned in River
Had Left Iowa Side to Inspect
River Retards Being Placed
By Woods Bros. of
Lincoln.

w. L. Logan of Chicago, civil en-
gineer for the Illinois Central rail-
road, is believed to have drowned in
the Missouri river Friday aft
ernoon.
He left the Iowa side of the river
in canoe to inspect some river re-
tards being placed on the river by

gan had planned to cross the river

boat belonging to Woods Brothers
was moored.
He is now leading a search for
the body of Logan. which is partici-
pated in by a number of Illinois Gen.

be searched if necessary to find the
body.
1--WE are doing everything in our
power to find the body" he said. "Our
company was doing some river work
for the Illinois Central. Logan
planned to inspect it yesterday after
noon. He was about so years old
and had been living for a short time
in Council Bluffs, I believe. I think
his home Is in Chicago"

lice, the accident occurred in the

Omaha sighed a collective sigh of
content Friday night, as cool breezes
blew for the first time this week.
Rain which began falling late FRI

fall during most of the night at least

throughout the southeast portion of
the state, with the heaviest precipita-
tion at Plattsmouth, where 81 inche.
fell.
Although the temperature failed to
make any new altitude records FRI
day, the highest point being SO, it
hovered at 90 and above long enough
to convince the populace old Sol
still was in the ring.
Trees were uprooted, outbuildings
were overturned and corn fields fat
tened by small twister which Wis
tied the northeast portion of Gage
