COLD WAVE CAUSES
 ENORMOUS DAMAGE
FREEZING WEATHER RUINS FRUIT AND HURTS THE
 FIELD CROPS.

Kansas City.-Based upon reports from many districts of Missouri, Kan sas, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas, officials of farm and horticultural as sociations here said that enormous damage had been caused by freezing temperatures which recently prevailed over the Southwest.
 Little hope for early fruit crops in Missouri and Kansas was indicated, although it was said that the later crops probably have not suffered ma terially
 The sudden cold snap was preceded by warm weather in most localities, and officials said in many places fruit trees were in bloom. Grain crops were said to have been we'll advanced and in some sections ojinting had taken place. Fields which had not been pastured were damaged.
 Oklahoma's state Board of Agricul- ture estimated that the loss of early fruit in that state would approximate $11 ,250,000 an dsaid that 75 per cent of the crop was ruined by the recent freezing temperatures.
 Springfield reported sheet of snow and ice covering southern Missouri. All early varieties of apples, peaches, plums, pears and cherries were in full bloom, and the loss undoubtedly will be large Another freeze was predict ed for that section. Strawberry and other berry crops are not believed to have suffered
 Wichita, Kan, and the Arkansas valley found it's fields of early grains frozen down. Wheat which had not been pastured was damaged particu- larly. while oats, which had been planted early on account of the open season, suffered a greater freeze. All falfa fields were all discolored, and no fruit is expected this year in that sec tion except in few protected or chards.
 The peach and apricot crop at Ar kansas City, Kan, and vicinity is a total loss, reports said, and complete survey of the damage will not be made until after the thaw.
 Reports emanating from the Texas plains country report peaches and apricots a total loss and grave fear for the alfalfa crop also was expressed. Wheat Is not believed to have been damaged, and cherry, plum and apple crops were saved, although suffering some, according to the reports.

Prominent Rochester Citi- zen Tried Ten Years To Get Relief, But Tanlac Is Only Thing That Helped Him.

One of the latest 10 testify regard ing the powers of Tanlac, the cele- brated medicine which has been ac- complaining such remarkable results, is James J. Beasley, 102 Elmdorf Avenue, Rochester, New York. Mir. Beasley has been chief record keeper for the Department of Water Works, city of Rochester, for thirty years and is well known and highly re- spected citizen. In referring 10 the remarkable recovery of his health by the use of Tanlac, Mir Beasley said l:
 T have been trying for ten years to ind relief from a case of dys- pepsia. Nothing ever helped me to amount to anything until l got Tan lac. This is saying 8 great deal, for l did everything it seems that a man could do to find relief.

RELATIONS BETWEEN ATHENS AND ROME STRAINED TO
 SWAPPING POINT.
RUMANlANs SEND PROTEST
French sympathies in Greek Drive Are With the Turks Owing To the Return of King
 Constantine.

Paris.-War clouds are banking up in the Balkans and Asia Minor, with ramifications throughout Europe, as the result of the Greek offensive against the Turkish Nationalists.
 Relations between Athens and Rome are strained to the snapping point, the Greeks announcing a blockade of Asia Minor, and accusing the Italians of smuggling war munitions to aid Mus tapha Kemal Pasha. Serious results are feared if Greek warship encoun- ters an Italian blockade runner car rying arms and shots are fired if the Italian ship refuses to stop.
 Rumania has sent a bitter note of protest to the allies over the compost ton of the commission controlling the Dardanelles, and insisting upon equal voting power with the Greeks and Turks.
 Bulgarians are watchfully waiting for propitious moment to strike the Greeks in an attempt to regain Thrace.
 Utilizing the Jugo-Slav Italian au- thority, the Greeks are reported to have offered an attractive compromise partition to, Macedonia and Albania with Belgrade, hoping to obtain the Serbs as allies in the event of trouble.
 Diplomats here are anxious over the situation and they recall that the worldwide con1agration of 1914 had it's genesis in a spark ignited at Sera. jevo
 French sympathies in the Greek drive are with the Turks, owng to the return of King Constantine and Great Britain's efforts to establish an Arab kingdom with Emir Feisal as it's chief which conflicts with Frances ambition in Syria and because occupation by Greece of the Dardanelles is regarded as ensuring British control of the worlds crossroads.
 The Greek delegation here an nounces another important strategic victory-the capture of Miledajk, cut ting the main line of the Berlin to Bag dad railroad north of Eskishehr ard breaking Angora communications.
 In brilliant and rapid advance, the Greeks have fought forward 10 miles from Basardjik and their cavalry are charging Biledjik, while airplanes bombed the town all during the night
 The Greeks have also taken the i'm, portant railway junction of Eswisch chr. which fell before a double at tack from north and south.
 General Papoulos has promised King Constantine to be in Angora be fore April 15. This would necessitatc an advance of 10 miles daily

REDS ENGINEER
 GERMAN REYOL l
GERMAN GOVERNMENT FIRM IN PUTTING DOWN THE CON-
 MuNlSTS.

Berlin.-The Communist outbreaks in the industrial centers of Germany and the concerted attempt by the German Bolshevists to provoke a gen eral strike throughout the country are viewed by the government as an un- mistakabIe symptom of a plot, direct ly traceable to Moscow. The estab- lishment of German Soviet republic is their goal, a government spokesman charged.
 With regard to the evidence the government could adduee to support his convictions. Herr severing, Prus- sian minister of the interior, said:
 We base our belief on unimpeacha- ble eircumstantial evidence in our possession, and also point to the public utterances of accredited Communistic leaders, who openly designate the present period, when Germany is sore ly tried with problems growing out of the entente's invasion in the West and the Upper Silesian situation, as the most opportune movement for d re- volt.
 
 'tThe German Communist party takes it's orders from Moscow, and enc need only follow the manifestos daily appearing in it's official organs to To- cate the fountainhead of this inquiry
 The rioting in the Saxon province, the minister added, was also produe- tive of tangible evidence of the com plicity of Soviet agents in the instiga- tion of the present disturbances. He said he strongly suspected, however, that the cue for the present insurrec- tion miscarried. and that the signal found the extremists elsewhere than i'll Prussian Saxony disinclined to join the movement or timid about acting.
 The impending collapse of the present coup and the fact that it now is lapsing into plain outlawry," con tinued Herr Severing, must prove in- opportunely embarrassing to the Moscow government, which is seeking the re-establishment of diplomatic and trade relations with the United States, England and other countries, at the very moment that accredited emissa- ries of Sovietism are attempting to establish Bolshevism in Germany with the aid of pillage, destruction and ar son.

'Little Entente" Threatens Invasion o Hungary--Armed Guards Are Sta- toned Along Entire Austrian
 Frontier.

Vienna.-The entire Austro-Hunga. Tian frontier has been closed by joint action of the two governments pending the final disposition of former Empe. TOT Charles The Spanish minister here has asked the government for a pass to enable the ex-ruler to cross the country. and it is reported that Charles intends transferring the entire former royal family to Spain.
 Semi-official advices from Budapest say the Hungarian regent, Admiral Horthy is using the attempt of Charles to regain the throne to strengthen his own position as dicta- tor. Admiral Horthy already has ar. rested several army leaders who ap. peared inclined to place themselves in the service of the former emperor, the advices say.
 The Austrian government is taking every possible precaution to prevent Charles from re-entering the country from Steinamanger, West Hungary. where he has taken refuge Armed guards from various organizations have been stationed along the frontier to intercept the former emperor should he attempt to recross into Austria. Armories of the association of former officers are under heavy guard to prevent the removal of arms, and homes of all generals in the old i'm. perial army are under police surveil. lance. It is reported that many off. cers of the old army are hurrying< m groups to towns adjacent to Steina- manager.
 Meanwhile the little entente. , comprising Czecho-Slovakia, jugo- Slavia and Rumania, has served no- tice on the Austrian government that troops will be marched into Austria at the slightest indieauon that former Emperor Charles IS to be permitted to remain in the country.
 Uneasiness and nervousness prevail among all classes in Vienna, where the situation is considered one of the utmost gravity.
 Charles visited Budapest recently, with the idea of taking possession of the Hungarian throne. but was unable le induce the Hungarian government to fall in with his plan. it has been learned from unofficial but excellent sources. The former ruler came to Budapest, accompanied by two friends. He arrived at the palace at 1 o'clock in the afternoon, and invited Admiral Horthy, the regent, to turn over the reigns of government to him.
 The regent, however, refused and induced the ex-monarch to promise te return to Switzerland.
