winter -wheat in France is considerably
smaller than last year's and spring sow
ings are curtailed. la Great Britain

Belgium and Holland kept the farmers
busy during March. Winter sowings
have suffered in most of the continental
conn tries and considerable damage is
admitted in Spain and Hungary. Spring

Italy, but good crops are expected. Ex
cellent harvests are also promised in
Algeria and Smyrna.

the quo warranto case and should it be
decided that the Distilling and Cattle
feeding company is not a legal corpora
tion, then it would be a question whom
the distilleries belonged to. They might
be claimed by former owners, although
they were paid in full outright for the
houses, while the land was leased to th:
company. In such emergenoy it is wis:
to have the property guarded by officer
of the court, and this is the reason th

Uncertainty as to Actloa ef the Clrlc
Federation.
Chicago, May 13. Harlem race track
opened its two weeks' meeting today
despite last week's raid on Hawthorne
by the civic federation. The manage
ment announced that the proceedings
would not be affected in the least by the
crusade against track gambling. The
bookmakers took their places in the
betting ring at the usual time
and the crowd in attendance pre
pared to back the horses according to
program. There was much uncertainty
as to what action the civic federation
would take. Its officials had announced
that they would stop the pool selling
and a raid was anticipated. The deputy
sheriffs who raided Hawthorne, how
ever, had been paid off and discharged
and the sheriff's office gave no indica
tion of trouble for the race track. The
civic federation officers refused to say
what they would do aside from their as
sertion that they would take good care
that gambling should cease. President
Martin of the Harlem association said
that he expected arrests to be made and
would be prepared for them- Bonds
men would be furnished, he said, and
the track patrons would be protected,
the schedule being run off, no matter
what might happen.

San Francisco, May 13. The Salva

The leader of the movement is Fong
Foo Sing, a young Chinese who is a
member of the Salvation army in this

that the army at the proper time will
send me to China. To go to China was
the object that really led me into the
Salvation army. I wanted to do some
thing for my country along army lines.
The late war, I believe, has made China
open her eyes. As a result, the way
will be opened for Christianity, civiliza
tion and other good things."
