C Earbe With Misstatement. Dc-s Moines. July 23 Although stat ing that he Las the behest respect for the Iowa Auti-Saloon league as au organization, II. H. Sawyer, the uewiy elected secretao of li.e Ijwa Amend- uieut bSsO( iutiou, formerly district supei inteiu'.ent cf the league, fired his broadside againtt the suiH-nuteiiueat cf the league, W. C. Barber. Over bis own signature in the bul letin of the association Mr. Sawyer ac cuses Superintendent Barber of wil fully misquoting and distorting the wording of the section of the constitu tion of Iowa providing for the revision and amendment of the constitution. This was done by Superintendent Bar ber, says Mr. Sawyer, to mislead the temperance people into believing that 1 constitutional convention could be called for the sole purpose of adding a prohibitory amendment to the const! tution. Instead of securing constitu tional prohibition the convention would defeat' it by Introducing other revisions and amendments for discus sion and the real purpose of the call of the convention would be lost, be lieves Mr. Sawyer. To find out which of the two meth ods the temperance people of Iowa are more willing to accept, Mr. SaW' yer has written a circular letter, In which he asl s for criticisms and opin Ions and says thnt he is wil'ing to abide by the opinion of the majority.

Duu & Co.'s Weekly Trade Review says: Mid summer dullness Is less pronounced in both wholesale and retail departments of trade, and, as leading markets are gradually relieved of some difficulties of crop uncertainties, price Inconsist encies and other disturbing elements, broader demand develops. Flour pro duction in the northwest continues greatly reduced. With few exceptions, industrial linos are busy aud labor well employed. Bradstreet s review says: Trade and industries are still marking time, awaiting the passing of the vacation season and progress of leading crops nearer to maturity. Reports as to the fall trade outlook are optimistic in the southwest and central west. The outlook In the northwest is fairly cheerful. Failures for the week were 215. Wheat exports were 1,047,247 bushels. Corn exports were 141,811 bushels. Barney Hrrila Cauziit at Last GERMANY AGAIN EXPELS EAORMONS Twenty-ons Missionaries ducted to Frontier.

Government Takes position That Their Teachings Are Subversive of Moral ity and From Time to Time Many Have Been Expelled Few Germans Arrested Are Released. Berlin, July 23. Herr Dalwitz. Prussian minister of the Interior, on, recommendation of the political police, . has signed orders for the expulsion ot twenty-one Mormon missionaries, most of whom are Americans or English men, and they were conducted to tho frontier. The missionaries had assembled from various parts of Germany at the Mormon headquarters on the east sido to meet Superintendent McKay, aa American resident In Switzerland. They were holding a service when an agent of the political police, who was seated In the audience, rose and declared tho gathering dissolved. At tho moment several members of the criminal police appeared' and virtually took tho congregation Into custody. The women were asked to leave the place and tho men were examined as to their nationality. Those found t3 be German subjects were released, while the others were requested to ac company the officers to the police pres idency. There, after further examination. they were permitted to go to their lodgings to await the Issuance of wriU for their expulsion. The status of the Mormons Iu Ger many was taken up In exchanges be tween the foreign office and the Amer ican embassy In 1903, when the gov ernment took the position that tho teachings of the missionaries wero subversive of morality. It was then arranged with tho Mor mon superintendent, mrougn mo American embassy that all Mormon missionaries should leave the coun try within a month, transferring the middle European headquarters from Berlin to Switzerland. The authorities state that In recent years the Mormons have disregarded the understanding of 1903 and from time to time individual missionaries have been apprehended and expelled.
