Special Dispatch to The star.
SAN FRANCISCO, November 30
San Francisco was aroused today over
reports that it is to have duel--a
regular duel to the blood, IL not to
the death.
The city's famous Little Italy and
her equally famous Little Russia are
responsible. They are going to fur
nish the duelists AMI most of the
crowd
The police expect to be there. too,
for there is no end of bad blood be-
tween the two colonies over the affair
But so far they have not announced
any intention of stopping the fight
The duel idea had it's inception when
local Italian paper declared with
much gusto that Capt. Gaceinto
Sanges, pride of Italy, and a swords
man de luxe, was unquesionably the
greatest puncturer of human anatomy
in the worid-bar none.
The Russian colony heatedly denied
the claim. Gen. Alessandro Hin, for
mer member of the late czar's per-
sonal guard, the Russians set forth.

So Little Italy did just that 1t
wired Capt. Sanges in New York, and
Capt. Sanges burned up the plains
coming west. He arrived on Thanks
giving day and was wildly greeted by
loyal Italians. Then committees of
the two colonies met and arranged
for the duel
The first thing agreed upon was
that this should be no ordinary fenc-
ing match, with foils. There must
be blood. At least a little blood
The duel was set for the night of
December 13. and the Civic Audito-

U. S. RAISES BIGGEST PART
OF WORLDS CORN CROP

NEW YORK. November 80. The
announcement that the corn crop of
the United States is again above the
5000, 600, ,000-bushel line lends interest
to some figures on the corn crop of
the world, compiled for the Trade
Record of the National City Bank of
New York. These figures show that
while our corn crop seldom crosses
the 5000. 200, 900 bushel line, the world
production seldom goes above the
1000, ,000. .O00- -bushel mark In other
words. says the Trade Record. the
United States habitually produces
about three-fourths of the corn of
the world.
of the world outside of the United
states is Argentina, in South Amer
lea; Italy. Rumania, Bulgaria, Czecho-
slovakia, Hungary and France, in
Europe: South Africa and Egypt, in
Africa, and India in Asia, and all of
these countries in combination pro-
duce only one-third as much as the
United States. Corn prefers a COM
paratively warm climate, and so it
happens that the countries of north
ducers, even Russia with her enor-
nous agricultural area averaging
but about 50,000.000 bushels a year
out of the worlds 4.00O.000,0Oo bush
els, while Germany and the Scandi-
navian states produce but extremely
small quantities. Argentina is by
far the largest single producer out
side of the United States. and even
her annual crop of about 250.00O, 900
bushels is much less than the average
crop of our single state of Iowa.
The Department of Agriculture esti-
mates that 40 per cent of our corn crop
is fed to swine. 209o to farm horses,
1850 to cattle on farms and $50 to
live stock not on farms, 10To per cent
for human food, while only about 30
is exported in the natural state,
though of course a large share of the
meat exports represent corn.
