Fine Prospects , According to Burling
ton Report Potatoes Good ,
Omaha , Nob. , Juno 20. Prospects
for a big grain crop In Nebraska' are'
better today than they have been at
nify time this year , according to a
crop report of the Burlington railroad
sent out.
The hot weather of the past week
has advanced winter wheat remarkably -
ably , and conditions for corn have
been Ideal , with the ground moist and
the air hot.
Corn has been very backward , but
the clear weather has given the fann
ers' the first opportunity for thoroughly -
ly cultivating the ground and giving
the corn Its first real advantage over
the weed.
Potatoes have had n wonderful
growth.
There arc prospects of a small apple
crop , but It will be lato. The pastures
and meadows on which thousands and
thousands of Nebraska cattle feed ,
were never In better condition.
Crop reports received by many of
the Omaha grain men arc to the effect
that the grain In this state is In ox-
cellent condition. The weather of the
, past week was very favorable. The
| range country Is In unusually good
, condition.

the mutiny of sappers at Kiev show
that It was suppressed only after a
bloody engagement between the muti
neers and loyal troops , In which about
seventy men were killed or wounded.
Kiev Is one of the cities where revo
lutionary Ideas have made the great
est Inroads upon the army , and the
revolutionary military organization is
very powerful , counting among Us
'
members d'ozens of officers. The mu
tiny was planned to coincide with a
general political strike as a reply to
the dissolution of parliament , Involv-
lng > th'o railroads , telegraphs nd
malls.
In several of the southern provinces j
arrangements for the strike had been
making for months. The decision of

para. At midnight of June 17 , 500 men

AMERICAN DiLfcGATE RESERVES
RI3HT "I RAISE QUESTION.
SECOND SESSION AT THE HAGUE
iermany Proposes International Prize
Court Elaborate Piccautlons Taken
to Insure Safety of Delegates from
Anarchistic Attempts.
The Hague , June 20 The second
iosston of the peace vonleiouto , to
jomplQlo Iho oigaiil/iitlon and cieale
he font gunetul committees , whoio
ho actual woik will bo done , began
behind | closed ( loots. The piogiam
was caiefully uiranged In advance In
,
order to avoid the possibility of sur-
irises being spuing.
M. Nelldolt of Russia communicated
o the conlcronco dispatches liom 10m-
icier ) Nlcholiirt and Queen Wllhelmlna ,
hanking the conference lor Its mes
sages sent on the opening day , gieot-
ng the delegates and expressing the
hope for a successful ro&ull of their
deliberations.
All the plenipotentiaries Inter pre
sented their credentials The Chi
nese ambassador wrote that he would
)0 unable to bo present boranse of
he state of his health , and he will be
presented by General John W Foster
M. j Nclldoff made a few remarks In
memory of the late M. do Sttial , the
dome ' Uusslan ambassador In Lon
don , and then the rules of the confer
ence , Including publicity for the
plenary sessions , were presented and
unanimously adopted.
The surprise of the session was the
formal reservation by General Horace
Porter , on behalf of the United States ,
of the right to present the question of
the limitation of armaments. Together
with this , he also reserved the right
to introduce the subject of collection
of contiactual debts by force.
While this reservation was mridd
quite naturally , in accordance with a
notice served on Russia during the
preliminary negotiations last spring
and in order that silence now might
not bo construed as acquiescence in
the restriction of the work of the conference -
ferenco to the limits of the Russian
program , It is believed to Indicate a
firm resolve on the part of the Wash
ington government , alter seeing the
trend of the situation hero , to raise
the question latei if it becomes ap
parent that the subject Is going by
default.
It can bo stated positively , however -
over , that no proposition has yet been
formulated by the American delegates ,
but this action has renewed the hope
that the United States would bring up
the question of limitation and has
given great satisfaction to the pacific
ists.
ists.Sir
Sir Edward Fry also served notice
that Great. Britain reserved the right
to Introduce subjects outside the pro
gram , but less significance Is at
tached to his action.
Another Interesting feature of th
session was Baronvon Blobersteln'a
notification that Germany Intended to
offer the proposition of an Interna
tional prize court , to which appeals
could bo made at the time of n mari
time war and the decision of which
should bo final. General Porter seconded
ended this proposition on behalf ot
the United States and Sir Edward Fry
declared that Great Britain proposed
to advance a project on similar lines.
The fact that the first definite prop
osition submitted to the conference
should emanate from Germany and re
ceive the prompt and cordial support
of the United States and Great Brit
ain created an especially good Improa *
slon.
Beyond these two mattqra , the ses
sion was perfunctory In character.
r.o
Four committees were created , as prearranged
ox
arranged , and'the rules formulated , ex
cept on permitting countries to vote
by pi'oxy , adopted The United
States wjjs honqroi by wo honorary
presidencies and Mexico , Argentina
iaa.
and Brazil each obtained recognition.
Elaborate precautions still are be
ing taken 'to ' Insure the safety of the
delegates from anarchltstlc attempts ,
us well as to prevent eavesdropping.
KIS
Before the sitting the old castle was
thoroughly searched and all the doors
loading to the Hall of Knights were
goaled. A force of twenty police oc
cupied the cellar underneath , ready to
respond to an electrical call placed
on President Nelldoff's trfble. '
