RUSSIAN AGENT AT
BOIYMEADS FARM
Will Report Methods Used Here to
His Government at
Home
Maxmillian Groten, engineer of the !
maintenance of way of the Russian
Imperial Railway, was in conference
with Secretary of Agriculture Critch
!field this afternoon regarding the
manner in which the State of Pennsyl
vania conducts its educational cam
paigns among farmers.
Mr. Groten will report to his Gov
ernment on the systems in use in the
United States and is especially inter- !
ested in the farm institutes and the
work that is being done tn connection
with stock and poultry propogation.
Russia is about to engage in agricul
tural instruction on a great scale. Mr.
Groten spent several nays going over
the Bonnymeads dairy farms near
Harrisburg and on Tuesday held a long
conference with State Highway Com
missioner Cunningham on the con
struction of roads in rural districts.
At the Bonnymeads farm Mr. Groten
was met by Superintendent Hiram Bil
lett, and shown over the farms. The
distinguished visitor gave close atten
tion to the threshing, anc .made in
quiries regarding the methods used on
the dairy farms. Mr. Oroten took
notes of the cost of farming in every
branch, and estimates of the amount
of crops and acreage.
TOO MUCH KAI\" FOR CROPS
Onts, Potatoes and Corn Throughout
State Have Suffered
Crop summaries for the week ending
yesterday, compiled by the United
States Department of Agriculture, show
much damage to oats. The report
follows:
"Excessive rains covered most of the
State, being heaviest in the southeast
ern counties and near Lake Erie, lu
which districts the damage was heavy.
Oats suffered most as harvest was in
progress. Fields that were uncut were
badly lodged, and in some places were
flattened to the ground, while those tn
the shock were thoroughly wet through
and have since begun to sprout or mold.
Corn was beaten down In some sec
tions, but is generally straightening up
again and is earing rapidly. Much hay
was ruined, and orchard fruits suffered
considerably. This soil is thoroughly
saturated and in many fields it is im
possible to operate heavy machinery.
Potatoes, which were exceptionally fine
in all parts of the State, are beginning
to rot in some places and continued wet
weather will mean considerable loss in
that crop.
Fall plowing was begun where the
condition of the soil would permit, and
threshing of wheat and rye was re
ported from a few localities. The losses
of truck and early orchard fruits, while
considerable, were not great enough to
cause any marked shortage In the mar
kets."
COOL EVENINGS ALL WEEK
Indications Point to Showers To-mor
row and Friday
Harrisburg started to warm up again
to-day. It was 70 degrees at 8 o'clock
this morning. The mercury was hover
ing around 80 at noon. Cool ewenlngs
will be in order for the balance of the
week.
No trace of rain was found on yes
terday's records. This means that Au
gust 10 will go down In history as the
first dry day during the present month.
This does not mean that there will he
no more rain. Indications to-day were
that showers would fall to-night or to
morrow. Disturbances in the West,
moving eastward, give little promise
of settled fair weather for at least
forty-eight hours.

Seize Leading Warsaw
Residents as Hostages
Special to The Telegraph
London, AUK. 11. —The Cologne Ga- :
zette reproduces the following procla- |
mation by Prince Leopold of Bavaria, '
German commander at Warsaw:
"Inhabitants of Warsaw: Your city ]
if in German hands, but we wage war 1
only against hostile troops, not against
peaceful citizens. Peace and order
shall be preserved and rights pro
tected.
"I expect the citizens of Warsaw to
undertake no hostile action, to trust
German sense and justice and obey the
instructions of German commanders.
"It has, however, come to the knowl
edge of the German military com
manders that the enemy has prepared
attacks against the safety of our troops
in Warsaw. Therefore, I am com
pelled to take as hostages leaders and
most prominent citizens of the town,
who will be pledged for the security of i
our troops.
"With you it rests to protect the i
lives of these fellow-citizens of yours, j
Ii is the duty, therefore, of anyone
who has any knowledge of a design to |
make attacks of any kind promptly to i
notify the German authorities in the ,
interests of such fellow-citizens as well :
as the peace and safety of Warsaw.
"Whoever Is guilty of negligence in I
this respect or gives assistance to at- 1
tacks must expect to pay the death
penalty."

Importance of Landing
of Forces Recognized
London. Aug. 11, 12.47 P. M.—Rec
ognition of the imperative importance
to the allies of forcing the Dardanelles
as the shortest road to retrieving Rus
; sian reverses and regaining the In
itiative now in the hands of Germany
is demonstrated amply by the sudden
landing of British forces in the vicinity
of Karachali. on the north of the Gulf

tion of James H. McDevltt, solicitor

HARRISBUHG s££& TELEGRAPH
BRITISH MILLIONS
IN NEW YORK CITY
$52,000,000 in Gold and Securi
ties Guarded by Forty
Armed Men
SHIPMENT WEIGHS 75 TONS
Train of Steel Cars Carried Weahh
From Halifax, N. S., to
Metropolis'
By Associated Press
New York, Aug. 11.—A special train
carrying $52,000,000 worth of gold and
securities, which had been shipped by
the Bank of England from London, by
the way of Halifax, N. S., to this city
arrived here to-day. The train was
composed of several steel cars and was
guarded by forty armed men.
Of the total shipment $35,000,000
was In gold and was believed to be in
the form of American double eagles.
The wet fht of the gold shipment was
about 7 tons. It was said to be the
largest Ingle shipment of gold ever
sent acr iss the Atlantic ocean In one
vessel.
It was brought over In a British
battleship which was convoyed ;
through the war zone and across the j
ocean by a cruiser and a flotilla of j
torpedoboat destroyers to guard
against an attack of German subma
rines. The cost of transferring it
from London to New York was esti
mated to-day to have been $250,000.
It was said that the British battle
ship brought over not only the $52,-
000,000 in gold and securities for New
York, but also a shipment of gold
destined for Canada whose treasury
recently sent gold amounting to $135,-
000,000 to New York.
Secrecy Maintained
Secrecy was maintained in sending
this great shipment of gold and pre
cautions were taken tc prevent the,
German secret service discovering the I
plan or route of forwarding it. At I
Halifax it was delivered Into the cus-1
tody of the American Express Com-|
pany and when the armed train left
that city it was preceded by a pilot en
gine for the purpose of testing bridges
and to frustrate any attempt to wreck
the train by the use of dynamite.
This precaution was suggested by the
exploit of Werner Horn, the German
reservist who attempted to blow up
|the St Croix river hridge on February
12, to stop shipments of munitions to
the allies. The route over which the
train proceeded frftm Bangor, Me., to
New York, was kept secret. Robert
E. M. Cowes, vice-president and gen
eral manager of the express company
stated that the transfer was the great
est risk ever taken by an express com
pany.
Eight policemen were sent to meet
the train here and guard tne gold un
til it was delivered at the subtreas
ury.
J. P. Morgan and Company of this
city, were the consignees. The .pur
pose of the transfer of gold was un
derstood to be to reinforce British
I credit here and to improve the ex
change situation as the English pound
sterling has depreciated of late. The
securities are presumed to be Ameri
can bonds, to be used as the basis for
further advances to the British gov
ernment.

Protest Is Forwarded to
International Red Cross
By Associated Press
Paris, Aug. 11. The Marquis de
Vogue, president of the central com
mittee of the French Red Cross has
sent a formal protest to Uustave Ador,
president of the International Red
Cross committee at Geneva against
alleged measures or reprisal taken by
the German government against the
French prisoners of war in retaliation
for alleged mistreatment of German
prisoners.
This protest, dated August 4, is
based on a report by Baron Danthou
ard, the plenipotentiary accredited by
the French government to represent
the French Red Cross at war prison
camps. ,
Baron Danthouard states that a
thousand French prisoners have been
taken from camps at Errurt, Ohrdruff,
Damistadt, Frledrichsretd, Munster
and Merseburg and sent to the Hano
verian swamps, "a region of notorious
unhealthfulness, there to be employed
In draining and clearing land. For
most of these men, unaccustomed to
such work this is physical and mental
torture and killing fatigue in the
misery of improvised quarters. This
barbarous penalty is void bloodedly
inflicted on innocents with the undis
guised purpose to terrorize their
families and exercise through them
moral pressure on French public
opinion and government."
