American Men
Have Terrible
Time

/, LONDON, Aug. yl6.-- There has
been n bull market on spats, yellow
gloves, 9top-llats and walkingsticks
during the American invasion OF
Iondon this summer.
The advertising men and members
Of the American Bar association al
most exhausted the supply of stop
pers 7 in some of the hattiers in
the fashionable shopping district.
In order to be properly dressed at
the Buckingham Palace garden par
tv. and other functions in honor of
the Americans, it was necessary, of
course. I'd havesa silk hat. A few OF
the lawyers brought choppers with
them. but most of them waited to
buy enc here.
At the Buckingham Palace garden
PARTY, Judge j. Crawford Biggs OF
North Carolina did not wear spats
and did not carry. Il cane, and, by u
coincidence. neither did the King.
Thercfofe, Judge Biggs has been
hailed by London newspapers as the
man, British or American, with
fewest sartorial imperfections" at
the party. The reason Judge Biggs
wasn't perfect, was that he hap
pened to wear yellow gloves, where
as, the King wore grey ones.
Nothing takes n man off his feet
like seeing place to sit down.

This, according to the cooperative
newly organized $o6,O0O,OO0 Grain
Marketing Co., which is ready to
handle this years crop.
The Grain Marketing Co. will be
composed of the farmers themselves.
Farmers will hold all the voting
stock and most of the other stock.
If profits are earned above an 8
per cent dividend, they will 60 back
rs patronage, dividends to farmers
who actually raised tho grain.

shorten the channel from the pro-
ducer to the consumer. We have
formed q non profit cooperative as

members products for the best
available price and with the least
possible overhead.
May Reduce Bread Prices
'FTherc is no intention to strong
arm an excessive price from the

company is simply to sell grain eco
nomically and fairly. 1t may be

reduce the price of bread while Civ

Opposition to the Grain Market

ahead, however. -
Already it has taken over the Cor

j. C. Shaffer and Davis Noland-
Merrill. Appraisers will set the
price to be paid. The experienced
heads of those companies will con
tinue i'll the new organization on
contract for five years.
Elevators and warehouses are
waiting to receive grain in a dozen
cities from New York to Kansas
City and from Minneapolis to Gal
weston. There are about oooo
farmers cooperative elevators
over the country, and most of these
are expected to affiliate. Greater
use of warehouse receipts for OBJ

through the company should first
notify the nearest branch or the
main office in Chicago, - says j. w.
Coverdale, secretary treasurer of
the company.
"He will be told where to ship his
grain or advised to hold it subject
to call later. Any cooperative To-
cal elevator wishing to start mar
keting through the company should
first apply for membership to the
company at 20S S. LaSalle ST.,
Chicago.
Less Speculation, Waste
'NThe company will be simply one
of good many agencies receiving
grain on the market. But it hopes
to handle enough of the crop ito
have real influence. Instead of the
price frustrating because of farm
ers selling according to their whim
Or necessity, the company will sell
its grain in calm, busincss-like, re-
gular fashion. There will be less
speculation, duplication and also

Doing Splendid

daily oecmrcnee of high winds, con
TIMES unab:ltese These conditions
threaten. the most widespread loss
df the natural resources of Call-
fornia that the state has faced for
ut least twenty-five years There
have been b550 forest and brush
fires in California this year, burn
ing over about 800, 600 acres.
The emergency has been splendid

ance given by many business inter
ests and organizations TO the pro-
lection plans of the Sta ties Forestry
Department and the Federal Forest
Service, the cooperation of the pup,
lie generally, and the support OF
,hc press haye been admirable.
Many of the forest. supervisors
and rangers have been fighting for,
est fires, with only occasional
breathing spells, since the, first Of
May and the stress they have been
under can he compared only with
that of ment ut the front in time
of war. The record of the For

Ex0nerates Her
Husband in MOrs
Murder Mystery

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 16.-Lying
on cot in the Clara Barton hos
pital, Mrs. Sam Schapp, one of the
three victims of bullets fired by
:. Kid. Mccoy when he ran amuck
following the shooting of Mrs.
Theresa Mors, denied that the en-
dearing letters written by her hus-
band to Mrs. Mors had any eonnec-
tion with the case.
The letters round in Mrs. Mors'
apartments bearing thc signature
sam and the salHtation - Darling
Theresa . were admitted by Mrs.
Sciapp to have been written By her
husband.
~ loved Theresa and my husband
loved her as | did Mrs. Schapp
said. "We were very dear friends.
There was absolutely nothing wrong
in those letters. .
Albert A. Mors, recently divorced
husband of the slain woman, came
into the sick room to visit Mrs.
Schapp while the reporter was talk
ing to her.
When that abysmal roue or Il
man, Mccoy, felt Theresa slipping
from him he feared the loss OF his
meal ticket" the millionaire metal
manufacturer said. How incongru-
Gus it was for prize fighter to
have eaten in my home from the
same silver that Emperor Victor
Ludwig of Austria once used. /
bought that set while touring Europe

Seal Conserving
Increases Herds
OF the US. Govt.

Gin 1912 only $4,000 seals remain
cd in Alaska, due TO the illegal
poaehing and indiscriminate killing
Of these valuable animals. Today
the seal herds numbers 100000. due
entirely TO the careful conservation
methods of our government, said
o. Z. Albrecht, of the national
committee, appointed by Secretary
of Commerce Hoover, on marketing
sealskins, for the government.
In. 1912 President Roosevelt made
The first step toward the preserva-
tion of this valuable herd Of ami
mails negotiating a treaty with
England, Russia and Japan, where
by only > certain proportion of
the seals are killed each year under
direct supervision of the United
States government. These skins
are taken to st. Louis, dressed and
dyed there by the government
agents, and then sold at auction TO
the fur trade each spring and fall.
The value of the seals is entirely
for their fur. For generations, seal
skin has been priced very highly
when made into garments, and
when the herd was so very small,
the skins brought very high prices.
At the last sale, however, the gov
ernment realized very low prices on
the skins-the lowest in many many
wears.
It is firmly believed, however, by
Mr.. Albrecht, that the new low
prices viii so stimulate the demand
for sealskin that the government, in
the long run. will profit greatly by
the increase in the size Of the herd.
Formerly, only the very wealthy
could afford sealskin garments,
while now the price is within reach
of everyone.
This committee, consisting of the
heads of some of the largest de-
partment stores of New York. Bos-
ton and Chicago, besides o. f. Al
brecht, the fur technical member
from St. Paul, also reported that
the American way of dressing the
the sealskins is great improvement
on the old English way. The skins
are much more pliable and soft
than ever before, and consequent
lv the garments made from them
nang more gracefully.

FARMERS PROMISED GRAIN DIVIDEND BY new
COOPERATIVE ORGANIZATION TO MARKET CROPS

pany, talked. favorably but no i'm
mediate results appeared. Silver
and Covcrdalc have been the most
active workers for the farmers in
incubating that idea.
Personal reasons of the headssof
the big grain companies are larget
ly responsible for their willingness
to close out their business to the
farmers. Several of them have
reached the age when they welcome
retirement. Federal legislation and
regulation has taken much of the
joy out of the grain business. II
stock in the new cooperative can
be sold to the grain farmers, it
looks as if they would join the
fruit, cotton and tobacco growers
in becoming proprietary business
men-not mere takers of a dole
from the middle men.

Many Accidents
In Ruhr Region

BERLIN, Aug. 16-The frequency
of accidents in the Ruhr mining dis
trict is increasing, the miners union
stated in a petition to the local au-
thorities. The increase is due to
the disobedience of governmental
regulations for the avoidance Of ac-
cidents by the owners, the union
claims. This negligence has made
that the number of accidents has
been quadrupled during the past
eight months so that at present the
average number of accidents is 10
per day, with approximately , per
cent fatal. Since the termination of
the passive resistance at least 10000
accidents occurred in the Ruhr alone.
