Russia has not figured extensively
as a cotton-producing country. But it
seems to have ambitions in that direc-
tion. Reports from Tiflis are to the ef-
fect that the area sown to cotton this
year is double that of 1909. In one dis-
trict 400 acres are devoted to the
stape. That is a tiny fraction of the
total In the United States , but high
prices have stimulated cotton growing
wherever practicable , and the aggre- :
gate result may be a substantial gain
in the foreign output.
The latest government report is adI I
ditionally favorable to a big wheat I

tal harvest of 702,404,000 bushels ,
against an indication for the same
time last year of 652,351,000 bushels. fiP
The estimate for 1909 fell below the P
actual result , for the total yield last h
year was 737,159,000 bushels. Should e
there be similar excess this year there s
will be a good chance for a record- h

CRIPPEN IS HUNTED
SUPPOSED . , ) ' 0 BE ON SHIP
BOUND FOR THIS
COUNTRY.
' 'CORPSE DUG UP IN CELLAR
Killing of Belle Elmore , Actress
Strikingly Similar to Charlton Case.
-Suspected Husband Well Knowr
In Indiana.
London.-Scotland Yard Is seeking
Dr. Harvey Crippen , an Americat
dentist , in connection with the murdej
of his wife. He is believed to be on
a steamer bound for New York. Crip-
pen was a native of Coldwater , Mich. ,
and was educated In Indiana , where
he is well known.
The authorities Thursday cabled the
police of the United States to arrest
Crippen , who , it is thought , sailed
from England Saturday.
Doctor Crip'pen , who is said to be
fifty years of age , made his home
for some time at 39 Hilldrop Cres-
cent , North London. Some time ago
his wife , Belle Elmore , a vaudeville
actress and treasurer of the Music
Hall artists' guild , disappeared , and
subsequently a notice of her death
appeared in the local papers.
The fact of her demise was gen
erally credited , but there was more orI I
less gossip among the women inti I
mates and this finally reached the
ears of the police. The latter visited
Doctor Crippen and the Interview ap
peared to be satisfactory. ,
Doctor Crippen disappeared last
Saturday and a search of the Crippen
house was made and the battered body
of a woman was found buried in quick
lime and was burned beyond recogni
tion , but the finding of the body , to
gether with other discoveries , has I
left no doubt in the minds of the au
thorities that the murdered woman
was Mrs. Crippen. ,
The case Is strikingly similar to
that of the Charlton murder at Lake
Como , Italy. Porter 'Charlton was ar
rested in Hoboken , but in the absence
of an extradition treaty between the
United States and Italy specifically
providing for the return to either
country of a citizen of the other coun-
; ry who has committed a crime
abroad may go free.
In the present case no such com-
Dlications ; > are probable , as the British-
American extradition treaty leaves
ao loophole of which a suspected crim-
.nal : may take advantage.
Doctor Crippen , after attending
schools in Indiana and Los Angeles ,
ompleted his medical studies in Michc
igan ! Cleveland and New York city.
He practised in Detroit , San Diego ,
3al. , Salt Lake City , St. Louis and
Brooklyn as an eye : and ear specialist.
He married Belle Elmore ! , as she
was known on the stage , at New
York.
PITTMAN IS FOUND STARVING
Nicaragua President Reported to Ha
Badly Mistreated American Pris-
oner-Creates Reign of Terror.
.Washington. - The United States
must soon intervene in Nicaragua or
allow peace to be effected there by
England [ and Germany.
Unmistakable significance attaches
to important reports frrom its diplo-
tr
matic representatives in Nicaragua to
the : state department Thursday showI I
ing that Madriz has produced inten
tionally : a reign of terror in the west
ern half of Nicaragua , in which four-
fifths of the white people of that re
public live.
The dispatches show that William
Plttman , an American prisoner in the
hands of Madriz , was inhumanly treat-
ed ! by starvation and other privations
since i he left Greytown on July 4 on
his way to Managua.
When he was put in prison in Mana
gua ; it was in a "filthy cell , " five feet
by six and there again he was starved.
l prompt protest from Consul Oil-
vares at Managua secured the trans
fer of Pittman to a better cell and
the United States is furnishing the
money to feed him properly , and it is
also furnishing the money to take
care of the relatives in Nicaragua of
the murdered Groce.
The more serious aspect of the gen
eral situation is that citizens of Ger
many and Great Britain are protesting
against the reign of terror in western
Nicaragua. Nicaraguans openly make
threats against the lives of American
citizens and there is nothing to pre-
rent an immediate outbreak of street
aiurders , arson , robberies , etc. , which
ivill involve all foreign residents in
Nicaragua.

Motorman Spicke.
The craft was of the nonrigid type ,
176 feet in length and 33 feet In diam-
eter. The motors were of 125 horse-
power and drove the airship at a
speed of 28 % miles an hour.
The war department recently pur-
chased one of Erbsloeh's balloons.
The cause of the accident is a mat-
ter of conjecture , but It is believed
that the bursting of the bag was due . .
to the expansion of gas by the warm
sunshine.
Bournemouth , England. - Hon.
Charles Stewart Rolls , third son of
Lord Llangattock and one of the most
daring and skillful of British avia-
tors , who recently made a flight from
Dover to France and return , met a
most tragic death at the close of the
first flying machine tournament of the
year in England Tuesday.
In the presence of a great company
of spectators , a majority of whom
were women and children , and many
personal friends of the young aviator ,
the Wright biplane on which he was
flying fell suddenly with terrific speed
from a height of 100 feet.
It struck the ground close to the
crowded grand stand , smashed into a
tangled mass , and before the doctors
and their assistants could reach the
spot Rolls was dead.

DOES NOT SUPPORT MADRIZ
Emperor William , Through Foreign
Office , Declares Germany Will Not
Intervene I in Nicaragua.
Berlin.-The foreign office Tuesday
made public an authorized statement
respecting : : the letter of Emperor Wil
liam to President Madriz of Nicaragua.
Reports , have reached Berlin that at-
tempts were being made in America
to construe this letter as an indorse- -
ment by the emperor of the Madriz
party.
.
The statement follows : ' "Madriz
gave notice of his election upon
undertaking the presidency , to the em-
perior in the usual written form. The
customary formal reply was prepared
by the foreign office. It was not an
autograph letter , but was simply
signed by the emperor. The address ,
'great and good friend , ' was in ac
cordance with official courtesy. Any
intervention by Germany In Nicara- :
guan affairs neither followed nor Is in- !
tended. Germany neither sought nor c
designs to seek a coaling station. Ruj j
mors of Germany's intention toward
the Galapagos islands are equally ]
without foundation , as are all sugges
tions that the German government I
has in any wise modified the cultiva- (
tion of friendly relations toward the t
United States. " (

CALL RATES CONFISCATORY
Pullman Company Lawyer Says Com

for Big Concern.
Chicago. - Contending that the Inter-
state commerce commission's order
for a reduction of sleeping car rates
Is confiscatory , attorneys representing 1
the Pullman company and the railI I
roads appeared in the United States 1
circuit court to argue for a rehearing ]
of their petition for an injunction to ]
prevent the order being put into ef- j
fect.
fect.An
An injunction was previously denied
them , but they seek to reopen the
case on the ground that they have
new facts to present. a
Attorney Fernald of the Pullman
company told the court that the new
schedule of rates would ultimately II
mean bankruptcy for the sleeping car IIg
companies. g
It would mean a loss of $116,000 an- ii
nually on fares between St. Paul and iiti iiR
the points of Fargo , N. D. , and Seattle. ti
Wash. , alone , he said.
The reduction from St. Paul to
Fargo is 40 per cent. on upper berths

DESSERTS FROM PINEAPPLE'
Fritters , Souffle , Cream and Log Cabin 7
Are Four Dainty Dishes Made From
This Appetizing Fruit.
Pineapple Fritters.-Make a batter
with one egg , beaten separately. To
the yolk add one-half cup of milk ,
pinch of salt and enough flour to
make a stiff batter , the beaten white
and one-half teaspoon of baking pow-
der. Open a can of the best sliced
pineapple. Cut each slice of pineap-
ple in two , dip in the batter and fry1 !
in hot lard. Drain , sprinkle with
powdered sugar and sorve. Fresh fruit
Is much nicer if obtainable than the
canned.
Pineapple Souffle. Melt two ounces
of butter in a stewpan , put In three
ounces of fine flour , mix with half
pint of milk , boil until it thickens ;
have ready three ounces of pineapple
cut small , the same quantity of sugar ; (
put with the cooked mixture , add one
by one the yolks of three eggs , then
the whites beaten to a stiff froth ;
make a sauce with one cup of pine-
apple juice , half cupful of cut pineap-
ple. Cook the pudding three-quarters . .
z
of an hour.
Pineapple Cream.-Select one ripe
pineapple , pare , remove the "eyes , "
grate , add sugar ( pound for pound , or
a Uttle less , but it must be sweet , as
freezing destroys some of the effects
of the sugar. ) Allow one pint of cream
to each pint of pulp and sugar , and
freeze. Be sure and have all the in-
gredients icy cold before combining
them. .
Pineapple Log Cabin. - Select a large
ripe pineapple , pare , eye and cut into
slices about a fourth of an inch thick.
Cut these across into half-inch strips.
Sprinkle thickly with sugar and set In
a cold place until time to serve. Then
carefully drain off the sirup and ar-
range the strips six deep in log cabin

freshly grated cocoanut. Fill the cen-
ter with fine ripe red raspberries and
pour over them the sirup which has
been drained from the pineapple.
