Farley Recesses Until British
and French Governments
Confer.

London-M. Politis, the Greek
minister Of foreign affairs, in
formed Premier Poincare that he
had sent instructions to Greece to
stop all further despatehlng Of
Greek Troops into Thrace. The
Angora government has notified
Allied generals that unless il Is
given assurances that Thrace will
be handed over to the Turks with
In a month after the evacuation
by the Greek troops the Turkish
troops will resume operations
against the Greek forces.
London-The Mudania conference
is not ended, 1t was officially stated at
the conclusion OF the British cabinet
meeting, but it is dead-locked and can
not be resumed before the British and
French governments have conferred
over the situation.
Lord Curzon, the British foreign sec.
rotary, left Immediately fol- Paris TO
see Premier Poincare.
1t also was officially stated that
from the British point of view the
Turks are demanding more than was
offered in the Allied note, and on the
other hand that they were not accept
ing the conditions of chat note. -
The armistice conference OF Allied,
Greek and Turkish military leaders at
Mudania was adjourned suddenly.
The adjournment of the parley has
developed. a new crisis in the near
eastern situation which had seemed on
a fair way TO settlement.
To some 1t appeared that the con-
ference was at an end, but there is
expectation that the diplomats will
make a strong effort to smooth out
the difficulties.
Ismet Pasha told the Allied generals
that if the Turks could not have
Thrace peacefully I'VE have the means
to enforce the determination"
lsmet Pasha, in fiery mood, upset
the conference. He declared that the
Turkish army must enter Thrace i'm
mediately and his tone was deter.
mined and defiant.
Earlier in the day the Greek dele
gates had declared in no less certain
terms their readiness to fight if neces.
sary, to retain the province.

GATHER IN WHEAT
Farmers Of Western Canada Re.
ioice at Harvest.
Largest Crop In the History OF the
Fertile Provinces May Be Con-
sldereI Assured.

Reports of Western Canada's wheat
crop, which may be considered fairly
accurate, as they are made at the
end OF tine season., when the crop is
fully harvested, would indicate q
yield Of between 35O,0OO,OoO and 3T0,-
$4,000 bushels from a total acreage
Of 21,47l, 900. This Is the greatest
yield In the history OF the provinces
OF Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Al
berta. This immense yield has only
been harvested through the combined
energies of all public bodies-rall.
ways and governments. II required
the assistance, outside of that locally
employed, OF upward OF 10000 men.
These were brought into the country
from the East, the West and the
South, by trainIoads, and rushed for
ward at express speed. TO be placed In
the different districts, under the a!ree-
tion OF officials who were kept advised
daily, by wire, Of the needs.
AS a result of this combined effort
the largest wheat crop In the history
OF the West was successfully harvest
ed. The threshlng reports show that
almost universally, In every section
Of the country, the grain graded high.
In very few places did rain interfere
with stacking. The province of Mani
toba was the first to complete thresh-
ing, very few fields being left at the
time OF writing.
Portions of Saskatchewan that had
suffered from drought for the past
two or three years reaped a crop that
largely made up for past disappoint-
ments.
In Alberta there was a strange con-
dition. In the central district. always
noted for Its heavy yields, there was
considerable OF a falling of. Instead
Of the 80 and 40 bushel yields the
average ran from 10 TO ~. while In
southern portions, where drought had
affected the country for some time
past. there were exceptionally high
yields.
Reports Of individual yields In diff
ferent portions Of the three provinces
lead to the impression that when
threshing returns are in there will he
found to have been a nuch better crop
than at present seems possible. Some
Of these returns give individual farm
ers as getting as high as As bushels
others 35, and so on. while ip some
districts, where In early August not
more than s or 10 bushels might be
looked for. rs and Is bushels are re.
corded, the Improvement having been
brought about by rains that worked
marvels In the appearance Of the crop.
And then, too, instead OF the head
carrying four rows. most OF them car
ried six rows, and filled to the top,
which. to those who know, means at
least fifty per cent more.
The rye crop OF all Western Can.
ada is exceptionally good; the oats
generally good and barley fair.
The weather al the time of writing
Is threatening for a rainy spell, which
may interfere with threshing, and pro
long II somewhat.

Consider The Clan,

JUSTICE Oliver Wendell Holmes of the United
d States supreme court in handing down a de-
cision from the bench of that august tribunal has
determined n matter yexing to the world from its
beginning, finally and forever, so far as the United
States of America rs concerned. The common
clam or fresh water mussel is a domestic not a
Wild animal.
This court decision in in perfect accord with the
view we have held for many years. We have ever
noted the calmness, dignity and excellent behavior
of the clam. Its entire freedom from complaint
regardless OF weather, war or other disturbing oc-
currence. Its perfect department, its untainted
attitude toward jazz and the prevailing wildness
that has of late years swept the world off its feet.
Tho clam has remained perfectly sedate. There
may have been a time in the early days of clam
ology when the clam got on its mussel and its
voice was heard in convention assembled along with
the mastodous pachyderms and other noisy dele
gates coming down from the jungles to the seashore
TO attend. Be all that as it may. When the clam
did decide to settle down to the quiet and simple
life, it has remained consistently by its convictions.
No influence, appeal or inducement has ever been
sufficiently strong or attractive to vary its con-
stancy.
We commend the great courts wisdom and judg.
ment that keeps the clam out of any classification
as a wild animal. If the decision had been the
contrary We feel certain the clam could never live
up to the reputation that would be implied.

The controversy between the president and the
Storcrs continued over many weeks and the opin-
ion settled TO a belief that the president was not
justified in the action he took and the alleged
%meddling was simply a friendly interest in matters
to which the Storers were devoted and in no sense
complicated diplomatic relations with other
powers.
While relations between the president and the
Storers remained strained 10 the end those of the
families continued ON the same old footing OF
cordiality.

nence of the persons concerned the incident re-
mains still a subject of interest among those ia.
