BV" W. BRUCE M’NAMEE Universal Service Correspondent. Washington, Oct. 10.—Stirred tc action by repeated outrages of the Ku Klux Klan in Texas the Harding administration has de termined to force a showdown on the Issue of the klan’s “invisible govern1 tnent.” 4 This decision reveals a situation unique in the annals of American po Mtlcal history. It will mtan that a republican ad ministration will support the can didacy of an independent democrat for the United States senate. He is George E. B.-Peddy, of Houston, anti Ku Klux candidate. Peddy Is out to end the “hooded horror" of the klan in Texas, where repeated out rages, including the tarring and feathering of women are regarded as threatening the sovereignty of the federal government. The decision to support Peddy was reached at a White House conference Saturday night between President Harding, Attorney General Daughei - ty, Secretary of War Weeks, and K. B. Creager, of Brownsville, republi can state chairman and close friend of the presideift. More than 100 recent outrages on the part Vf the klan, and its women’s auxiliary, known as the “invisible eye” moved Chairman Creager and other republican leaders to come to Washington to appeal for support in opposing the senate candidacy of Earle B. Mayfield. The latter is the acknowledged Ku Klux candidate for the Senate seat. Jn indorsing tne canamacy ui Peddy, republican leaders here be lieve thdt Mayfield’s support will be split, permitting Peddy to capture the elections. Chairman Creager, it is understood, will return to Texas with letters of indorsement for Peddy from John T, Adams, chairman of the republican national committee, cabi net members, and others of the high est officials in the Harding adminis tration. Whether President Harding will personally indorse Peddy is a matter for further consideration by the White House. The klan’s open defiance of the law In Texas may move the president to write a letter of indorsement, it is understood. That the issue transcends Texas state politics and has reached the proportions of a national menace, is the belief of officials here. They de mand a show down, and to bring it about are willing to overstep party lines completely in support of an in dependent democrat. ALLEGED JEWEL THIEF .

Largest Crop in the History of the Fertile Provinces May Bo Con sidered Assured. ^ Reports of Western Canuda's wheat crop, which may be considered fulrly accurate, as they are made at the^ end of the season, when the crop is, fully harvested,, would Indicate a1 yield of between 350,000,000 and 870, 000,000 bushels from a total acreage' of 21,471,000. This Is the greatest yield In the history of the provinces ofv Munltolm, Saskatchewan and Al fterta. ■Tills Immense yield has only been harvested through th<5 combined energies of all public bodies—rail ways and governments. It required the assistance, outside of that locally employed, of upward of 40,000 men. These were brought into the country from the East, the West and the South, by trainloads, and rushed for ward at express speed, to be placed in the different districts, under the direc tion of officials who were kept advised dally, 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 threshing 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 thnt 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 off. Instead ’of the 85 and 40 bushel yields the average ran from 10 to 12, while in southern portions, where drought had affected the country for some time past, there were exceptiomUly high yields. s * Reports of individual yields In dif ferent portions of tlie three provinces lead to the Impression that when threshing returns are in there wfil be found to linve been a much better crop than at present seems possible. Some of these returns give individual farm ers as getting ns high ns 45 bushels others 35, and so' on, while in some districts, where in early August not more than 8 or 10 bushels might be looked for, 15 and 18 bushels are re corded, the improvement having been brought about by rains thnt worked marvels In the appearnnce of the crop. And then, too. instead of the head carrying four rows, most of them car ried ste 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 barloy fair. The wfather at the time of writing is threatening for a rainy spell, which may Interfere with threshing, and pro long it somewhat. Most of the newcomers from the States have excellent crops. I>nring August, the trains to Western Canada carried hundreds of ^capitalists and others interested in Western Canada land, going up to take care of the crop that they had arranged to have put in on the land they owned. Very few of them will be disappointed.—Adver tisement. * Possibly Taking No Chances.

Belief Prevails Following Hot Battle Between National ists and Republicans— v Amnesty Withdrawn? • _ BY DENNIS O’CONNELL Universal Service Correspondent. Dublin, Oct. 10.—It was leurned Monday night on the best authority that President Cosgrave, disgusted with the results of his amnesty proc lamation was considering withdraw ing it forthwith. No official statement has been is sued regarding the plan, but the in formation comes from one who has exceptional access to the councils of the provisional government. The national forces effected one of the biggest captures of the present lighting Monday when they surprised a flying column of Irregulars at Up ton, Just outside of Bandon, the scene of many important buttles during the Bluclj and Tan war. General Tom Ennis, heading a contingent of na tionalists .overtook the irregulars who were enroute to a position where they planned to ambush the Nation alists. A hot battle opened and the repub licans attempted to escape but were outflanked. The whole column sur rendered. It Is reported that six Ir regulars were killed and 60 tftken prisoners. The nationalists suffered no casualties. The prisoners are re ported as belonging to the division which ambushed Michael Collins. They claimed to be the "death head huzzars” of the republicans. Kemal Arrives at Mudania for Personal Conference With General Harington— Allies Aid Refugees. BY MAJOR GEN. F. B. MAURICE Universal Service. Constantinople, Oct. 10.—Generals Charpy and Mombelll returned Sun day afternoon from the Mudania con ference, their Instructions following the Curzon-Poincare conferences not having been identical with those re ceived by General Harington from the British government. They got their new instructions and returned to Mu dunia thus giving assurance of an allied agreement at the conference. It is understood thjjt General Ma zat’kis has received instructions from the new Athens government to com ply with the Paris terms. One point on which Ismet Pasha is still inclined to be obstinate is the limitation of the number of Turkish gendarmerie who will enter Thrace if the Allies unite on that question, it Is declared that he will probably give way on this and that prospects of an early settlement are bright. When the settlement is reached it will be urged that the Allies agree tOj assist Greece in the disposal of the mass of refugees now in eastern Thrace, and of many thousands more who will seek to leave before the oc cupation of the province by the Turks. It is believed here in many quarters that the best machinery for this purpose will be the League of Nations, which Captain Nansen is here organizing. Mustapha Kemal arrived at Jlu dania Sunday night and hopes to have a personal conference with Gen eral Harington.

MAY CLEAR YOUTHS OF THE CRIME Predict Hayes’ Release as Soon as Habeas Corpus Ac tion Instituted—Mystery of Dual Murder Unsolved. New Brunswick, N. J., Oct. 10.—The Hall-Mills murder mystery appeared Monday night as far from definite so lution as It has been since the mutil ated bodies of Mrs. Eleanor R. Mills, choir singer and the ltev. Edward \V. Hall, rector of the Church of St. John the Evangelist were found un der u crab tree on the old Phillips farm on the morning of September 14 last. Spurred by criticism, the officials of Somerset atjd Middlesex counties Monday afternoon locked in a cell In Somerville Jail Clifford Hayes, a mild mannered Intelligent boy of 19 charging him with the brutal mur ders late on the night of September 14 last. Schneider Confesses. The officials acted upon the strength of a statement signed after a gruelling all night examination by Raymond Schneider, 21, In which the latter asserted: That Hayes In his presence killed Mr. Hall and Mrs. Mills because he mistook them for Pearl Bahmer, 16 year-ol<l girl sweetheart of Schneider, nnd the bitter’s ex-bartender father Nick Bahmer. That Hayes stole the minister’s watch but—and here is the weak point In the "confession"—that Hayes did not cut Mrs. Mills throat from car to ear and that nenher lie nor Hayes ar ranged the bodies In the manner In which they were found. Facing Hayes after a night of sleeplessness and at least a. mild form of third degreeing hy the officials, Schneider said: "Cliff, you know you killed them by mistake." Nabbed to Satisfy Governor? Hayes, a clear eyed youth who re cently received an honorable dls charge from the navy, replied firm ly: "Ray, you are a liar." The opinion In New Brunswick that Cliff Hayes was arrested as a “goat" upon the demand of Governor . Edwards for a quick bolution of the crime, was bulwarked, somo people assert, by statemetns of Pearl Bah mer, Schneider’s former sweetheart, member of the Hayes boy’s family. Pearl, a bobbed haired, brown eyed girl, whoso 15 years have been crowd ed with experiences of a natirre that do not. befall the usual school girl, and ivho is also subject to attacks of epi lepsy, said: "Cliff Hayes Is Innocent. If any one did the shooting It was a boy who wildly hated my father." At the Hayes cottage, Joseph Hayes Jr., elder brother of Clifford, said: "Because of the political situation the authorities had to find a ‘goat.’ They picked on Clifford. Why, Clif knows nothing about the revolvers. Sunday night the dectives searched our house and took away two pistols. One was a toy fourth of July single shot pistol. The other was a little .22 calibre pearl handled revolver with u broken trigger that couldn’t possibly fire an automatic shot." Hall and Mrs. Mills were killed with .32 calibre automatic bullets. Shortly before Young Hayes was locked up In Somerset county jail ^Prosecutor Beckman, of Somerset county said: "Upon information in the prosecu tor’s office obtained from Schneider and other witnesses we feel obliged under the situation to prefer a charge of murder against Clifford Hayes. "Raymond Schneider will be held as a material witness awaiting further developments in the case. Process will be served oilt of Somerset couty, where it appears the crime was com mitted.” Haggerty Defends ‘Youth. Mrs. Fiances elevens nan, winnw of the slain clergyman, received the news of the ‘‘confession" of Schneider with the same grave countenance she lias worn since the discovery of the bodies. Thomas H. Haggerty, a democratic state committeeman, appeared today as counsel for the accused boy. After a short interview with the lad, Hag gerty said: ‘‘1 am convinced my client is inno cent. He tells me he was not at the scene of The murder tliut Thursday night. I believe him. He is a clean, straight-forward boy.” "Have you considered hab'aes cor pus action?" “Not yet. You see they are basing their charge upon the statement of Schneider. Why should my clle/it, who has no cause to be jealous of Pearl Bahmer’s companionships, commit this crime? Furthermore, Schneider andMlayes know Pearl was out in the park with her drunken stepfather, Nick Bahmer. They knew she had gone against her will. Predict Hayes Release. Although the authorities shifted uneasily when questioned, it was learned that Schneider had denied Absolutely that either he or Hayes had cut the throat of Mrs. Mills or had arranged the bodies in the man ner in which they were found. Pros ecutors Beckman and Strieker and Assistant Prosecutor Toolan “refused to discuss the Schneider “confession.” PLAN $4,000000 FUND FOR MARKETING RICE Washington, Oct. 9 (lT.
