GERMAN FOREIGN MINISTER IS KILLED
Dr. Waiter Rathenau Attacked and Slain by Trio Of Assassins-Martial
 Law In Force.

Berlin, June 24.-Martial law and a state of siege were proclaimed in Der lin today, following the assassination of Dr. Walter Rathenau, the German foreign minister, this morning.
 The murderers, who were waiting for Dr. Rathenau at his door, followed his automobile in another motor. As Ithe foreign minister's car was passing a crossing, they fired eight revolver shots and hurled hand grenade at their victim. Dr. Rathenau was kill ed instantly.
 The assassins, of whom it is said there were three, escaped in their au- tomobile.
 The report of the crime spread rap idly throughout Berlin, causing a gen. eral uproar. Crowds gathered in the streets, discussing the necessity of a general strike, which was being pre- pared by the labor unions.
 All the roads to Berlin are being guarded by strong detachments of po- lice, who are controlling train and au- tomobile traffic to prevent demonstra- tors from marching on the capitol.
 Capital Is Anxious.
 A feeling of anxiety, "who is next" Tprevades the town, where the recent prophecy of Die Fheiheit and other Socialist newspapers that new St. Bartholomew's eve, with a general Islaughtering of the leading men of the new German republic, was scheduled for the end of this week, still is cre- ating a sensation and a general thrill of fear.
 When the assassination was an- |nounced, the Reichstag members ad- hereing to the left turned on the Ma Itionalists, exclaiming, You are the spiritual murderers."
 A free-for-all fight ensued, in which General Schoch a member of the Ger man Peoples party, and Karl Helffe- rich were badly mauled. The Reich stag adjourned until the afternoon, the Socialists claiming that they will not let the Nationalists hold their big meeting, which was announced for to- day Today is St. Johns Day, an old German festival, which is celebrated by bonfres and speeches in Berlin and Potsdam. The police yesterday an- nounced that they would not permit any demonstration.
 Numerous Bavarian hotheads have been seen in Berlin lately. Police have clews that members of the assassina- Ition gang which murdered Erzberger were present, also Herr Escherich, or ganizer of the home guard, which was disbanded by the allies.

It Was a Great Rain
 And Very Timely

The rain which fell over this sec uon Monday night and Tuesday was very timely and will be of vast benefit to the growing crops. Cotton was do- ing nicely with the exception of the smaller cotton, which had just been worked out and required moisture to start it growing. Most of the corn was late and was needing rain. It was also needed by peas, melons and sweet potatoes. Gardens were begin ming to suffer, though the dry weather was not sufficient to materially injure the crop. The rain was a gentle driz- zle and was absorbed by the earth as it fell.

TARIFF ON FOODS
 TO COST BILLIONS
Senator Walsh Discusses Partial Ef- feet of the Protection" Tax
 Would Stop Deflation.

Washington, June 25.-Increases in tariff duties proposed on fresh meats, sugar, cereals, beans, potatoes and ap- pies, if effective, would advance the cost of those commodities to American consumers by a total of $1,316, ,569,- 449 year, Senator Walsh, Democrat, of Massachusetts said today in a for nal statement. He explained that this estimate had been prepared by the Department of Agriculture at his request and was based on the total consumption in this country multipli- ed by the increased tax proposed in the new bill over the law of 1913.
 Senator Walsh made public table prepared by the department showing the increased cost year on such items would be as follows: Barley, $O,o94; buckwheat, $00O7; corn, SOFT; oats, $1.3o9; rye, $o.oe2; wheat. $1.792; sugar, $O.49O; beef fresh, s2.714; mutton, so.159: pork, sO736; beans, $O.13O; potatoes, $1,323; apples, $0.397; total $13.159.
 To Increase H. c. L.
 "Tese figures reveal the terrible consequences of high tariff duties on the bare necessities of life," said Sen- ator Walsh. At the very period when We are attempting to deflate the enor- nous cost of production and excessive prices prevailing as a result of war conditions, it is proposed to increase the cost of living to the American peo- pie of $1,316,569,449 per annum.
 Tt is unbelievable, it is inconceiv- able, that any public man would for one instant seriously consider such a proposition, yet so great has been the pressure exerted on the majority party in Congress by the agricultural traffic bloc that unless the American people make emphatic protest without delay their living expenses for what they eat are to be increased at the rate Of over $1,250,000,000 a year.
 "The heavy income tax burdens, the excess profits taxes and the high sur taxes which corporations and wealthy individuals have had to bear during and since the war sink into insignifi- canoe compared with the burden that the advocates of these agricultural traffic duties seek to force upon the great army of toilers and consumers"

VICTIMS OF HERRIN MARSACRE BURIED
Unknown and Unmourned, They are Laid in the POtters' Field
 Scanty Scores Aattend.

Herrin, H., June 25.-Union miners and their "sympathizers" garciously permitted a few humanitarians to bury the mangled bodies of 15 of their vic- tins today.
 The fury of the mob, unspeakable in it's cruelties, extended beyond death, for the dead bodies were mutilated shockingly, but some of the cooler headed officials considered it good policy to permit the burial of the re- mains without interference. They even went to the extreme of permit ting union grave diggers to dig the holes.
 The bodies were placed in plain pine boxes, each bearing an aluminium tag, At Rest" They were buried in the potters' field, and cheap pine slabs were pushed down at the head of each with this inscription hastily painted on: Died June 22, 1922" That was all. The union would not tolerate any names, or reference to the manner in which the 16 met death.
 Four ministers, representing the Methodist, Presbyterian, Christian and Baptist churches officiated. They sang few old hymns and offered prayers for the dead. Only a handful of per- sons attended the services. The men of bloody Williamson" county re- mained in town, congratulating them selves upon the thoroughness of their work. At the outskirts of the little group at the graves were a. few wo- men and girls, but they did not ap- proach near enough to be contami- mated by the despised dead. They were there merely out of curiosity, to see the final chapter in the sickening tragedy. The townspeople had feasted their eyes and senses over the mangl- ed bodies while they were lying in the improvised morgue, so the men and boys did not waste time in attending the funeral.
 Miners Buried in State. In striking contrast to these simple services, held with the menace of ad- di.ional reprisals over the heads of all who participated, was the showy buri- al of the two union miners who had been killed by mine guards. The pro cession was led by large band, and there was most elaborate display of flowers and mighty showing of uni on strength in numbers who joined in the march to the church and thence to lthe cemetery

Roy Budd Explains
 Rates and Storage

F Ogden, June 27.-It has been asked Iby some of the members of the Cotton Growers Association, What about freight rates and storage?" As di- rector of the association, take this method of giving such information as can.
 All members hen ready to ship cot ton will be advised as to what com- press to send it for storage. When it lis delivered to station and bill of lading obtained, consigned to the Association you are then entitled to an advance on your cotton of not less than 50 per cent of its value.
 The freight will be taken care of by the association and you will not have to bother about that, and you will be expected to ship it as fast as practic- able and it matters not whether you ship a bale or car load at time as the freight will be the same, that is, so much bale regardless of the num- Der shipped. As soon as the cotton is delivered at the station and bill of lading received, showing that the cot ton has been properly consigned to the association it automatically becomes insured against loss and the associa- 'tion takes charge of and immediately becomes responsible for it's value to the owner.
 The question is asked by some, "why select some congresses to store cot ton and leave others out?" The com mittee who was appointed to pass up- on this matter investigated thoroughly the advisability and feasibility of cer- tain congresses throughout the state and after making a careful investiga- tion as to freight rates and amount of cotton which should be placed in the different congresses found that it would be much less expensive to as- semble the cotton at the congresses which they selected because the freight rates are less, congresses bonded and generally we'll located, considering the volume of cotton to be placed there, and the more cotton stored at any one point the better it will be on the account of the cotton having to be placed in pools according to sample and grade. To illustrate: Suppose that 2,OOO bales were placed in storage at given point at one time and consisted of twenty grades, divided into that many pools and the association had an order for 1000 bales of a certain grade and type and fin that compress We had only 400 bales of that particular grade and type, we would then have to be at an addition al expense, assembling the other 600 bales from some other point where the cotton was placed in other com- presses, thereby making the expense much greater and labor more burden some on the owner of the cotton.
 The expense must be held down as much as possible and the plan worked out and adopted is to the best interest of the members of the association, and this is the only reason that we have selected the congresses at the differ ent points throughout the state. .-..
 Yours very truly,
 r. Roy Budd, director,
 Arkansas Cotton Growers Co-opera- tive Assn. Dist. No. 19.
