lie mated that monopolistic con
trol 01 industry through over-capital
ization is the greatest cause of "in
iur trial disease,' and to overcome
monopolistic control he advocated
that the government take over the
natural resources of the country and
extend the privilege of their ex
ploitation through a strict leasing
system.
"Agriculture." he suid, "is almost
prostrate, industry itrewn with
wrecks, the merchant fleet idle and
a.nut to be sold to private indi
viduals for a few cents on a dollar.1
Railroads, he clurgcd, have taken

Plans are under way, he said, to
plunder the American people through

after an illness of several months.
He was 73 years bid.
Displeased at Kuropean F
pert' Refusal to Arrange
General Meet and Order
for New Proposals.
The Hague. July l9.-(Hy A. P.)
At a plenary session of the non
Russian delegates at The Hague con
ference today, it was decided to grant
the Kuitian request for a joint meet
ing on the distinct conditions that it
would be only for the purpose of
rreienting new proposals.
The Hague. July lR.-Uv A. P.)
every delegate to the Kusian con
terenre. now slightly more than
month old. awoke today with the
feeling that things were approaching
a climax.
The Russian representatives were
openly lurious at the manner in
which they were summoned to pre
sent new proposals today before the
joint tubcommission on private
property, and sat up until air early
hour trying to decide whether to
attend today's meeting at all. They
are displeased at the European ex
perts' refusal to arrange a general
meeting of all the leaders to discuss
toKether all the oroblcms before the
conference, and declared that noth
ing coura be accomplished by holding
separate negotiations;
The French delegation has little
faith in the attemnt to reopen the
conference, insisting that M. Litvin-
off's letter of yesterday contains noth
ing new. I hey insist tnat nis in
ter meant that the Russians will
not restore confiscated property and
will not talk compensation until they
are sure how much money thcV are
coins to set abroad.
Some delegates are openly accus
ing the Russians of seeking to sow
discord among the non-Russians
with the idea afterward of fishing.
to their own profit, in the troubled
waters thus created. ".
The Russian delegates refused to
attend today's meetings of the joint
subcommission on private property,
Instead thev sent a letter to the con
ference saying they would attend a
meeting of. whole conference or a
meeting of the chairmen of the three
subcommission, out wouia not ucai
separately with any single subcommission.

There, was nothing between Phil

and a woman is dead, another may
be hanged, a third has become a

and took hold of her left wrist with

She found it only at the requert of

against his breast, and closed her

charged with grand larceny was in

Mrs. Phillips patted her shoulder.

Norfolk, Neb., July 18. Fanners
are in the midst of harvesting oats
in all parts of north Nebraska and

Dakota will produce another bumper
crop of corn.

and quantity and wild hay produc
tion will be unusually large. Pastures
