SEPTEMBER YIELD LOW Estimates Far Below in Some Commu- nities, but Gains in Others—In- creases in Tobacco, Barley and Buckwheat. Washington. — Crops generally suf- fered loss in prospective production during September, but the harvests will be larger than they were last year, except in the case of corn, buckwheat, sugar beets and peanuts. Preliminary estimates and forecasts of production announced by the department of agri- culture showed a reduction as compar- ed with a month ago of 25,000,000 bushels of oats. 21,000,000 bushels of corn, 8,000,000 bushels of spring wheat, 16,000,000 bushels of peanuts, 5,000,000 bushels of white potatoes, 2,800,000 bushels of sweet potatoes and 2,900,000 bushels of apples. There were increases, however, In the forecasts of tobacco, barley, buck- wheat, rice and beans. The department forecasts a corn crop of 2,853,399,000 bushels in com- parison with the total of 2,875,000,000 bushels forecast at the end of August. The spring wheat crop was estimated by 1 the department at 268,314,000 bush- els, which compares with the forecast a month ago of a crop amounting to 277,000,000. Crop production this year. was an- nounced by the department of agricul- ture in preliminary estimates for some crops and forecasts, based on condi- tions October 1, for others (in thou- sands of bushels, except where noted) as follows: The condition of various crops on October 1 was i.nnounced as follows: Corn, 78.4 per cent of a normal; buck- wheat, 83.8; white potatoes, 77.3; sweet potatoes, 79; flaxseed, 82.6; rice, 85.3; tobacco, 78.9; sugar beets, 85.1; grain sorghums, C4.9. The nation's corn crop decreased by 21,600,000 bushels during September, presumably due to drought which pre- vailed in many of the corn growing states, according to the department of agriculture's forecast of production, based on conditions at the end of the month.

FORSDTSEIZURES OF SHIPS 1 LIQUORS Federal Judge Enjoins Action by Dry Officials Under Ruling Daugherty Gave. About a quarter of an acre of timber land and ten cords of pulp wood on the Santa Nonl preserve, owned by Robert C. Pruyn of Albany at Saranac, was destroyed by a small forest fire. Charges of the prevalence of gam- bling, vice and bootlegging was made in Amsterdam by the Rev. Thomas Adams, pastor of Trinity Reformed Church, at the weekly meeting of the Rotary Club. Reisenweber's, one of the few re- maining landmarks of the old \wet\ night life of New York, was ordered closed by Federal Judge Manton. The famous cabaret, recently operated as the Paradise by the Fifty-eighth Street Restaurant Company, has run afoul of the prohibition laws several times in the last two years. The Lockport Heat, Light and Pow- er Company notified the commission it would reduce its price Octobei 15 by 10 cents for every thousand feet of gas sold. This was one of the companies directed to reduce the price by 5 cents. The Peekskill Lighting and Railroad Company, serving northern Westches- ter county, Briarcllff Manor, Osslning and Pleasantville, was directed by the SEIZE LIQUOR WORTH $225,000 Seven Dry Agents Take Alcohol and Wines in New York. New York.—Seven prohibition en- forcement agents raided the four-storj r building occupied by the Franz Truck- ing and Rigging Company, Inc., and seized liquor they said was worth $225,000. The raid was conducted by the staff of John D. Appleby with a search warrant issued by Samuel M. Hitchcock, United States commission- er. Among the liquor seized was 1,000 cases of whisky. BANK BANDITS GOT $222,0004 President of Cincinnati Institution Gives Figures for Hold-up. Cincinnati.—The total of $222,004.93 In cash and bonds was obtained by the five bandits who held up the Hamilton County Bank of this city on September 28, it was officially announced by E. H. Matthews, president of the bank. The loot consisted of $12,454.93 in cash and $209,550 in Liberty, industrial and municipal bonds, Mr. Matthews said. Previous estimates of the loss were $35,000 to $80,000. New York.—On the eve of the date set for enforcement of the Federal prohibition ruling prohibiting pas- sengers ships, both American and foreign, from bringing liquor under seal into American ports, enforcement authorities were faced with two : portant test cases which may check proposed seizures. One was a temporary restraining order, granted by Federal Judge Learned Hand, enjoining local en forcement authorities from molesting liquor on board the American steam- ers Finland and St. Paul. The other was an order directing the Govern- ment agents to show cause why an Injunction should not be issued re- straining them from interference with ships of the British-owned Cunard and Anchor Lines. This was issued by Judge Hand last night. The injunction granted was hailed as an important victory for the steamship companies, who claim they would lose millions by the enforce- ment of the Daugherty prohibition de- cision which was to have gone into effect at midnight. It was issued upon application of the International Mercantile Marine Corporation, which controls the American Line, operating the Finland and St. Paul. Judge Hand had signed an order directing the authorities to show cause why they should not be enjoined from acting against the 24 liners in the transatlantic fleet of the British- owned Cunard Steamship Company and the Anchor Line. Franklin B, Lord, of counsel for the British com- panies, said that his firm would await the result of the hearing on the or- der before considering the advisabil- ity of conferring with the Attorney General in Washington regarding a test case. LATEST EVENTS AT WASHINGTON Mrs. Harding sat up for the first time since she was taken seriously Ml five weeks ago. Brigadier General Saw- yer, the White House physician, said Mrs. Harding remained out of bed twelve minutes and that her condi- tion was good. Government going slow in formulating regulations to carry out Daugherty ruling barring from United States ports and waters foreign ships car- rying liquor; treasury officials say ships violating rule wilt not be seized, but liquors will be and other penal- ties may be imposed.

WASHINGTON.—Chairman Lasker of the U. S. Shipping Board sent wire- less messages to all American vessels on the high seas, directing them to close their bars immediately. Ship masters were warned that no iquor can be served after receipt of .he dispatch. So anxious are officials hat the decision of Attorney General Daugherty be enforced that Mr. Las- ker demanded acknowledgment of the order. Chairman Lasker's message fol- ows: \The sale, transportation, or pos- session of liquor on ships operated by you is prohibited. I want to make It clear that the sale or service of liquor on American vessels should be stopped at once, whether in port or at sea. \I want to have it thoroughly un- derstood by everyone concerned. If you have not already done so wireless and cable to all ships at sea or In for- eign ports and secure acknowledg- ment to be sure there is no misunder- standing.\ This action was made necessary be- cause of some confusion concerning the hastily drawn up regulations, it i said. Many operators believed they could serve liquors on board ship until they reached an American pori and telegraphed for instructions. Shipping Board officials said that they intended that as fast as ship! picked up the message the bars would be closed. Parties in progress are be halted. The bartender is to untie his apron, get from behind the ma- hogany and the door Is to be sealed, they say. Department of Justice experts were busy preparing legal opinions in an- ticipation of court action. American ship owners, as well as foreign gov- ernments, are confidently expected t violate the regulation to force a tes case. In this way, it is said, it coul be rushed to the Supreme Court an a final decision made. Officials were not clear on the regu- lations concerning Panama and the Philippines. The Canal Zone Is ex- empted from the provisions of the Volstead act in so far as the trans- portation of liquor is concerned. The Panama Railroad is permitted to transport liquor. Secretary Weeks takes the view that while ships may pass through the Canal with liquor on board they may not dock at American wharves. He said there are no others and that unless this phase of the situation is cleared up, the Republic of Panama will have to go without its liquor. The zone is under army administration. There is sharp division on whether the regulations apply to the Philip- pines. Treasury officials hold the view that foreign ships will not be permlted to touch at the islands with liquor aboard. Prohibition officials claim, however, that the dry act Is not operative in the Philippines. The legislature there lias not passed an act for local en- forcement of the Eighteenth Amend- ment, and there is no dry agent as- signed to the territory. Shipping Board officials said that while it was regrettable, it was none the less true that the decision would do much harm to American shipping in the Orient and Latin American waters. The ships have built up quite an in- terport movement, it was said. Per- sons wishing to go from Shanghai to Tokio, between other ports, have fa- vored the ships of the United States, It was said. Officials say they expect to lose this traffic and already are re- ceiving cancellations of reservations at foreign ports. There are no cases pending in the courts in which the legality of the pending ruling may be tested. Depart- ment of Justice officials say.

TURKS AGAIN INVADE BOTH NEUTRAL ZONES i ITALY MAY EAT WAR BREAD j Living Cost Still Mounts and Food j Control Is Urged. Rome.—The labor office recommends a return to the food control system, while a portion of the Liberal press says war bread must be used because the people cannot pay the prices asked for American and Canadian wheat. Butter, flour, vinegar, macaroni, rice, eggs, potatoes, vegetables and fruit are dearer now than at any time in the last five months. Workingman's weekly food bill is $32. SEIZE REFUGEES' LIQUOR Schmidt lived. The shooting occurred from a possible fracture'! skull, but from a possibe fatu s, his father, a Christian Scientist, de- clined to allow an operation. Supply of Smyrna Victims Taken on Shipping Board Vessel. New York.—The first seizure of liquor aboard a United States Ship- ping Board vessel, under Attorney General Daugherty's dry ruling, was made by agents who visited the freighter Winona, arriving from Smyr- na, after evacuating refugees from the ruined city. Four cases of whisky and a num- ber of loose bottles were taken from na, after evacuating the refugees. 4,000 Advance on Ismid Area, Others at Chanak, Despite British Warnings. Constantinople. — Four thousand Turks crossed the newly denned boun- dary at Airan, north of Darljeh, on the Ismid Peninsula, and advanced some miles to Tepeeuran. General Haring- ton sent an airplane to warn the of- fending commander against trespass- ing on the neutral zone. The British general also telegraphed Ismet Pasha and Mustapha Kemal Pasha, calling attention to this breach, of the Mudania Armistice Convention. During the night Nationalist forces at Chanak advanced toward the Brit- ish line. When the British commander informed the Turkish commander that this was a violation of the armistice agreement the latter said he had not yet received official notification of the armistice. He indicated, however, that orders would be given to his troops to retire as soon as he received such noti- fication. The Nationalists, having signed the Mudania convention and won what the vernacular newspapers call a great dip- lomatic victory, appear In no hurry to give effect to one of its important clauses and withdraw from the new neutral zone. It is not unlikely that considerable difficulty will be experi- enced by the allies in inducing the Turk to respect his signature to the convention. The latter becomes effec- tive in two days' time, and the Nation- alist forces are still sitting down in front of the Chanak and Ismid areas. Kemal has a number of well trained and disciplined troops, but he has a much larger number of what may char- itably be described as irregulars—un- ruly, undisciplined hordes, acting serni- independently, obedient to no law hat their own behests. This lawless crew Is recruited chiefly from the brigands of Asia Minor. Attracted to Kemal's standard by prospect of plunder, they are like the Bashi-Bazouks whom the Turk used to let loose in his wars against his Balkan Christian vassals.
