G. R. TROEGER OF STATE AGRICUL TURAL COLLEGE OF AMES TALK ON IMPORTANT TOPICS. Sheep were referred to as savings banks for the farmers of Wapello county at the morning session of the institute today in the Commercial col lege building. E. N. Sterner was the advocate of the wool bearing animal, and he started in from the start to convert to his belief all the farmers within his hearing. Among the other well known speakers who addressed the farmers today were Prof. G. R. Bliss and Prof L. E. Troeger of Ames college, who spoke on "Farm Crops" and "Animal Industry." Despite the bad weather, which makes worse the bad roads leading in to this city, the attendance at today's session is large. While the attendance at the morn ing session was not large, the crowd of men and women present this aft arnoon shows conclusively that Wap ello county farmers must have a lar ger hall in which to hold their meet ings in the future. Every available Beat was occupied and standing space around the room was taken up. Morning {Session.:- The morning session was called to order by the president, Frank Gephart, who announced the committees on res olutions and nomination which will make their reports tomorrow. The following were appointed to places on the two committees: Resolutions—Frank Whitcomb, N. O. Johnson and C. F. Mast. Nominating—Lincoln Dlmmitt, C. W. Shepherd, John M. McElroy, L. New quist and George W. Evans. The first paper on the morning pro gram was given by E. N. Sterner en titled "Does it Pay to Raise Sheep." Mr. Sterner, who is an extensive sheep raiser, believes it does.' He stated that sheep are savings banks and they were equally as valuable as other kinds of live stock. He discouraged the idea of some of the farmers who were in clined to think that Iowa land was too costly to raise sheep upon and he went on to show how as much money was realized from the. wool of the sheep and lambs. He gave figures to show how the sheep were equally as valuable to the farmer as hogs, cattle and horses and did not demand as much care as the animals mentioned. As a fertilizer of the soil where they traveled, Mr. Sterner stated that sheep did better work than any manure spreader manufactured. The diseases of the other live stock, such as tuber culosis in cattle and trichina in hogs, caused an increased demand for mut ton, and the price obtained from the sale of sheep was sufficient to pay a nice dividend. In closing he stated that wool was being used more and more in the manufacture of wearing apparel end wool was now demanding the highest price in the last forty years Other sheep raisers participated in the discussion and their ideas were similar to those of Mr. Sterner. Miss Rita Evans favored the audi Bnce with a soprano solo and the young lady received much applause. Bliss Gives Address. Prof. G. R. Bliss of the extension department of the State Agricultural college of Ames was the next speaker on the morning program. His talk was confined to farm crops and fruit growing. He explained to the farmers the proper way to sow potatoes and other farm crops and he dealt thor oughly on the fruit growing business. He declared that Iowa should be the biggest apple growing state in the nnion if the farmers would not neglect this part of farm work. Prof. Bliss used a series of diagrams along with his address to fully explain to the audience the thought which he Wished to express deeply in their minds. He did not complete his ad flress until after dinner and he spent the remainder of the afternoon judg ing the corn exhibits. The Farmer as a Producer.

A REHEARING FACES PRISON CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS RE FUSES TO REOPEN CASE AND ONLY SUPREME COURT INTER VENES IN MARSHAL'S CUSTODY Chicago, Dec. 3.—John R. Walsh, convicted of misapplying the funds of the Chicago National bank, of which he was president, was denied a re hearing of his appeal by the federal circuit court of apepals here today.- The denial of the motion leaves Walsh without other recourse than the supreme court of the United States to stay the execution of sentence com mitting him to five years in the peni tentiary. The court declined to admit Walsh to bail, but permitted him. on his motion to defer beginning sen tence pending the application to the supreme court, meanwhile placing him in the custody of the United States marshal. The action of the court was based on the precedent created by the Morse case when the New York financier was commited to the Tot&bs pending his appeal to the supreme court instead of being sent to prison. Arguments will be made next Tues day on the motion of Walsh's counsel to reopen the case and present further reasons why the mandate should be stayed until application can be made to the supreme court for relief.

On the other hand the strike managers express satisfaction with the situation and do not appear to be dis turbed over the reports that the train men' are returning to work.

Serious Condition on Pacific Coast. Seattle, Wash., Dec. 3.—The switch men's strike has assumed a more ser ious aspect in the Pacific northwest. Passenger schedules are being main tained with difficulty. The arrival of the Great Northern liner Minnesota at Port Townsend at a late hour last night with 34,000 tons of freight valued at $600,000, much of it destined for quick transportation to the east, has given added cause for ap prehension. Range Cities in Peril of Famine.

In the face of such action 1 cannot understand how Hawley can expect our members to disregard their own laws and decent methods In order that the present strike be won for him. The members of the brotherhood must r.ot take the places of the strikers, but should perform their regular duties or resign and seek employment else where." Similar instructions were issued by President Carter of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Engine' men. Actor Suicides in Iowa.

New York, Dec. 3.—The purchase of a majority of the stock of the Equit able Life society by J. Pierpont Mor gan, announced last evening, a move of vast importance to the financial world because of the virtual passing of control of nearly half a billion dol lars of assets and the domination of two large trust companies, it is believ ed in Wall street today to foreshadow a still more important move, the mu tualization of the Equitable. No defi nite information on this point was ob tained today. A suggestion of definite character was made in banking quarters today that the taking over of the Equitable by Morgan ultimately will mean the combination of the Equitable Trust and Mercantile trust companies and one or perhaps two trust companies controlled by Morgan. This combina tion would control assets of nearly $200,000,000. Deal Closed Last Night. Official announcement was made last night of the gigantic transaction by which Mr, Morgan gains control of the Equitable Life Assurance society, with its $472,000,000 of assets. Purchase of the majority of the stock of the huge corporation was made by the Wall street wizard from Thomas F. Ryan, who acquired the company from the Hyde interests after the upheavals caused by the in surance scandals four years ago. Apart from its magnitude as a chapter in the history of finance, the transfer marks a complete reversal of the old order under which the in surance companies controlled the destinies of the banks and trust com panies, as now a banker will control one of the largest Insurance com panies. The Official Statement. The announcement issued from the office of Morgan & Co., was brief and contained none of the Inside facts of the transactions. This statement, which was given out by H. B. Davison, one of the younger partners of the firm, was as follows: "Mr. Morgan has bought, the ma jority of the stock of the Equitable Life Assurance society, formerly own ed by Thomas F. Ryan. This pur chase is subject to the trust under which Grover Cleveland, Morgan J. O'Brien and George Westinghouse were made voting trustees for the benefit of policy-holders, and it covers all Mr. Ryan's interests, includ ing all the stock purchased by him from James H. Hyde." Neither Mr. Morgan nor his partners would give any details beyond these bare facts. They remained silent re arding the exact amount of stock bought by them and the price they pald^ GOUGES OUT EYES Young Man Assaulted and Robbed Mining Town Receives Brutal Treatment.

Milwaukee, Wis., Dec. 3.—"Did con gress regard the rights of the consum er when it framed the tariff bill?" was the question Senator Clapp of Minnesota, answered negatively when he spoke last night as the premier ora tor in Senator LaFollette's campaign for re-election. A thousand persons who were pres ent at the West Side Turner hall, fre quently applauded the name of La Follette. to is Clapp avoided a direct reference to Cannon and Aldrich and others deem ed antagonistic to the "progressives, and concluded with a declaration that La Follette will not be "wiped off the map." Clapp said. "Party solidarity amounts to noth ing unless coupled with vitality and in tegrity. The Republican party is found ed on the principle that the leaders, instead of dictating to the many, should reflect their purpose and policy. "The recent tariff struggle was not between protection and free trade, but degenerated into a struggle between monopoly and the true friends of pro tection. The men who forced the bill through threw protection to the wind whenever it had served their purpose. "The real issue of today is to pro tect American industry, where it needs it from foreign competition, and to protect the American consumer from the unjust exactions of domestic com petition." Clapp characterized the corporation tax as an income tax illy disguised unjustly framed, taxing the precarious income and exempting the permanent income.

S. ship Zelaya to be Expelled. To Insure the expulsion of Zelaya, the United States Is gathering In Nic-r araguan waters a force of cruisers and gunboats and detachments of marines which will be more than sufficient to accomplish the mission which has beefi intrusted to them. This command has been given to Rear Admiral William W. Kimball, an officer who has had experience in Latin-American revolu tions. Under him on the Caribbean coa3t will be: Transport Prairie, with 700 marines aboard. Cruiser Tacoma. Cruiser Des Moines. Gunboat Marietta. Gunboat Eagle. On the Pacific coast of Nicaragua will be: Transport Buffalo, with 500 marines aboard. Cruiser Albany. Tic- No one expects this occupation will be contested. If it should be, a few shells from the warships soon will send Zelaya's soldiers flying. On the Pacific coast Greytown Is the only port which Zelaya Btlll holds. This place Is surrounded and its fall-within a short time Is Inevitable. May Invade the Interior. If more Americans are killed or American and foreign Interests injur ed, then it may be that the United States will have to send its men into tho interior of the country. The occu pation of Managua would not be diffi cult for the marines, who have had ex perience in the Philippines on the same kind of service. Secretary Knox wilt not for several reasons send to Zelaya his demand lor an apology and reparation for the ex ecution of the two Americans, Cannon and Groce. Zelaya, undoubtedly, promptly would comply with the demand and thus de prive the United States of its ground for action against him. Grave as was the execution of the Americana, th® fact is not lost sight of that there is a greater question involved-r-that of the peace and prosperity of several millions of people inhabiting Central America, and protection for the lives 11 -t 5! •»*jiiWi!

The plan of operations which Rear Admiral Kimball will pursue has been prepared by the general board of the navy.
