Montour American FRANK C. ANGLE, Proprietor. Danville, Pa., Aug. 11, 1910. CROP CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE The average condition of tlio corn ■crop on August 1, as estimated by the crop reporting board of the Depart ment of Agriculture,made public with the general monthly crop report on Tuesday was Tit. 3 as compared with 85.4 last month, 84.4 a year ago and 82.1 ,the average on August Ist for tlie past ten years. Preliminary returns indicate a win ter wheat, yield of about 15.8 bushels per acre, or a total of about 458,294,- 000 bushels, as compared with 15.8, and 446,36(1,000 bushels, respectively, as finally estimated last year. The average quality of tlie crop is 92.6 against 90.3 last year. The average condition of spring wheat on August Ist was 61.0, as com pared with 61.6 last month, 91.6 last year and 81.9, the ten year average ou that date. The average condition of the oats crop on August Ist was 81.5, as com pared with 82.2 last m0uth,85.5 a year ago, 76.8 in 1908 and 82.6 the ten year average on that date. The production of last year's oats crop in farmers' hands on August Ist was about 6.3 per cent., or 63,249,000 bushels as compared with 3.3 per cent, or 26,323,000 bushels in 1909 and 5.8 per cent., or 50,394,000 bushels, the average proportion on hand for the past ten years on August Ist. The acreage of buckwheat is about $16,000 acres, or 2.2 per cent. (18,000 acres) less than last year. The preliminary estimate of the acreage of hay is 45,005,000 acres, or 1.6 per cent. (739,000 acres) less than last year. In spite of the lower conditions of the corn crop, the increased acreage devoted to that cereal probably will increase the crop of the present year about 80,000,000 bushels over the crop of last year according to the view of expert statisticians. These statisticians declare that while the drought in the northwest will make the wheat crop smaller than last year there will be a liberal supply for export. They state that the winter wheat that was not abandoned would give a greater yield than was expect ed. The oats crop will be as big as last year, when it was unusually large. The average condition ot Pennsyl vania corn is 88, as compared with a ten year average of 85. The yield per acre of Pennsylvania ■winter wheat is 17.8 bushels, the pro duction in Pennsylvania is estimated at 27,697,000 bushels and the quality at 94 per cent. The average condition of Pennsyl vania oats is 97, as compared with a ten year average of 87. Bi~ET™ SCHEDULE AGAIN SHIFTED. Notwithstanding the fact that all the managers were at the Berwick meeting last Monday when the sche dule for the Susquehanna league was adopted, and all expressed satisfaction with the series of games as drawn up by President McCollum, it was dis covered by the Berwick management after the meeting that the schedule as arranged was unsatisfactory to that town. President McCollum lias therefore rescinded the present schedule and re arranged the games for this week. The remainder of the schedule will be an nounced later. The games for this week are: Friday, August 12. Nescopeck at Danville. Shickshinny at Bloomsburg. Nanticoke at Berwick. Saturday, August 13. Danville at Bloomsburg. Berwick at Shickshinny. Nanticoke at Nescopeck. There is more or less dissatisfaction laoth in Dauville and Bloomsburg with this new arrangement of games. Dan ville played a league game at Blooms burg only last week. Bloomsburg, in the first schedule was to have played Nanticoke on Saturday, and botli j Bloomsburg and Nanticoke wished to ! have this game stand; as the fact that j these teams are now tied for first place would have made it a contest of more than ordinary interest. It is likely that something will yet he done to inquire why the changes were made. Honeymakers Stop a Sale. York, Aug. 10.—While an auctioneer lit the sale of the property of Mrs. Harvey Snell.at Craleyville.this coun ty, was asking for bids upon a hive of : bees, the little honeymakeis became ruffled at the inspection to which they were subjected. They sallied forth, putting to flight a hundred or more people, including the auctioneer. A number were stung and the sale had to be postponed until the bees settled into the hive again. HEAVY FINES FOR OAMPFIRES. —A number of men have been arrested near Wilkes-Barre, by the State con stabulary for building fires in the woods, and wejce heavily fined. As the result of several such fires great dam age has been done. Booster Meeting Of D. A. A. Directors What was in many ways the most satisfactory anil enthusiastic meeting of the board of directors of the Dan ville Athletic association held in the history of the organization, was that Monday eve at the office of Secretary Ralph Kisner. It was a Booster meeting all the way through, and if a spirit of determina tion on the part of promoters of base ball in this city can make the Danville team "come back," the result is as good as accomplished. The meeting fairly bristled with momentous business. chief among which was the election of Chester A. Nipple, the first baseman of the Dan ville team, as field manager, with the retention of Simon K. Hoffman, who piloted the Danville team through a championship season last year and who has brought Danville out far ahead in the first series of the present season, as manager. The opening skirmish of tlie meet ing revealed the fact that the direct ors realize that interest in the Nation al Game is lagging in Danville, and after that the whole trend of the ses sion was toward adopting means to re store the Danville team to the full favor of the fans. Moving along this line the first ac ! tion that was taken came in a motion that the manager be requested to re lease Pitcher "Peck" Rowe at once for the good of the game in Danville, and this was carried without a dis senting voice. The directors then took up the mat ter of the control of the players, a number stating it as their opinion that the members of the team are not suffi ciently governed, especially in the matter of practicing. At this point Manager Hoffman explained to the board that business affairs make it im possible for him to give the attention to the team that the situation re quires, and he asked that the board re lievo him of actual control of the play ers. Following out this request, it was moved that Captain Nipple be made field manager of the Danville Athletic association team, which was carried. Tliis was followed by a motion that Field Manager Nipple have full con trol of the team on and off the field. Manager Hoffman is still to act as manager of the team in matters pei taining to signing and releasing play ers, arranging games and other duties that fall to the business end of run ning a ball club, with V. V. Vincent to also retain his position as assistant to Manager Hoffman. W illl the question of a field manager ' settled the directors talked over means of strengthening the team, and in this j connection it was brought to the at tention of the board that the impres-' sion has gotten abroad in Danville , that those directly back of base ball here do not want to win the second series, in which Danville lias already lost the first two games. The direct ors and managers were a unit in re pudiating this idea. It lias been, and is now, the effort of all concerned in base ball here to win just as many games as possible, and will be the especial aim from now mums Samuel K. Miller returned yester- ! day from a week's sojourn at Pocono Pines where he attended the seco'nd annual conference of the young peo ples' department of the Presbyterian i church. Mrs. John C. Heddens, of Philadel phia, arrived yesterday for a visit at the home of her father-in-law, Wil- ! liani M. Heddens, West Mahoning j street. Miss Minnie Rine, of McKees Half , Falls, who has been the guest of Miss j Sue Shindel, Ferry street, returned to. her home yesterday.

With the end in view of putting the team 011 a basis where a big per cent age of the games will come Danville's way, Manager Hoffman was instruct ed to secure a first class inflelder and pitcher, the latter not to be construed to mean that the present pitching staff of the team is to be disturbed, with the exception of Rowe. With this"go ahead" order hot off the bat, Manager Hoffman told the directors lie had sev eral men in view who would greatly strengthen the Danville line-up and that he would get after them at onoe. A meeting of the managers of the Susquehanna league was held Mon day afternoon at the Hotel Morton at Berwick,the business being the ratify ing of a schedule for the new series of games which is to be played during the remainder of the season. The schedule committee had prepar ed a report which was submitted to the managers for their consideration. After a few changes had been made the schedule was adopted as follows: Friday, August 13.

PARCELS POST INCONSISTENCIES Parcels up to eleven pounds in weight may be sent through the United States mails to Hungary at the rate oft welve cents a pound or a fraction of a pound according to the long list of countries having paroels post conventions with this country. Thus Hungarians who have become residents of the United States will have better mail facilities or treatment than the plain American citizen. A parcel weighing four pounds can now be sent to Gudapesth or any other city in Hungary for 48 cents, while the postage on a like par cel would be sixty-four cents if it wore sent from Scranton to Pittsburg or Wilkes-Barre. If the parcel bearing the latter address weighs more than four pounds it will be rejected as un available, but it may weigh as much as eleven pounds if its destination is across the Atlantic, and a thousand miles inland, if we have a parcels post agreement with a foreign country. Thus far it haa been found impossi ble to induce congress to enact the necessay legislation to give our people parcels post reform. Several bills pro viding for the institution of an effec tive parcels post in the United States were introduced during the recent session, but they all failed. The post office department could not even ob tain permission to establish an experi mental service on the rural free deliv ery routes. Realizing the strength of the opposition to the institution of a seivice through which parcels might be transmissible from one place to an other within the continental area of the republic upon as favorable terms as they are now transmissible from here to the other side of the world,the department confined its efforts to pro moting the passage of a bill authoriz ing the transportation of packages from one point on a rural free delivery route to some other point 011 tlie same route at the rate of five cents for the first pound and two cents more for each additional pound up to twelve, hut it was no good. Every reformatory proposition was persistently turned down. The express companies are the main I | obstructors to a parcels post, because they have maintained lobbies in con gress iu order to prevent Uncle Sam's ! I mails cutting their profits and busi- ! UPSS. | The Wells-Fargo Express company, ! I after paying ten per cent, dividends j on a capital of |8,000,000 for many years, last Winter distributed a cash j dividend of 800 per cent, and simul- 1 taneously empowered its stockholders | to subscribe at par for twice the amount of their holdings. Of course | they all availed themselves of this op- ! portunity, and [putting £8,000,000 in I their pockets they used the other sl<i,- I 000,000 in paying for the new stock | which it had been decided to issue. I The other day a semi-annual dividend J of five per cent, was paid on the in- J creased capitalization of $24,000,000, j and at the end of the year there will still be a handsomo balance to carry to profit and loss. And the other ex- i press companies are doing as e<[uallv 1 a flourishing and profitable business as tlie Wells-Fargo. No wonder tliev [ fight any parcels post through the j mails. They can well afford to oppose any such measure at Washington, but ! tlie people will not stand much longer for their congressional representatives j to act as the stoolpigeons of private ; or special interests. Ball Players Unconscious. Pottsville, Aug. 10.—Dining a ball game between Pottsville and St. Clair here yesterday, which the former won by a score of 4 to 2, William and John Sinister, outfielders playing with the latter team, in running for a fly ball were rendered unconcsious by their j heads coming together in violent con- | tact. Both are in a critical condition, j suffering with concussion of the brain, i John Shuster also had a finger of his right hand broken. Reunion of Hummel Family. Allen town, Aug. 10.-Seventy-five descendants of five brothers who came to Easton from Germany a century 1 ago gathered at Central park yester- [ day when the first reunion of the [ Hummel family was held. The family elected H. J. Leroh, Treichler, presi- ! dent; A. W. Lerc.li, Siegrfied, vice | president; H. J. Rinehard, Catasau qua, secretary; Mrs. R. D. Young, j Allentown, treasurer.

Gaynor, who was shot and seriously wounded as he was about to depart for i Europe yesterday by a discharged city i employe, continues to be a soutce of great anxiety today. The first bulletins ;of the doctors were hopeful in tone, indicating that the patient was rest ing comfortably and taking occasional nourishment, but the doctors have not i yet pronounced the Mayor out of dan ger. CONSULTATION HELD. | A consultation of physicians over ! Mayor Gaynor was held this morning after which the following bulletin was j issued: 11 A. M.—The Mayor continues to do well. It is the unanimous opinion of the surgeons that no operation is necessary at tiiis time. " GALLAGHER'S TRIAL. Prosecutor Pierre Garven, of Hud son county, N. J., today the j preparation of his case against Gal ! laglier. Mr. Garven said: i" The Krand jury fortunately lias not j wound up its current session or I would have to wait until the last of feeptember to ask for Gallagher's in dictment. There will le no trouble in dicting Gallagher, as we have plenty J of witnesses and the man's own con j fession." According to my hastily formed plan now, Gallagher will be on trial not later than the first of next week, i The trial will be short and the verdict will be readied by the jury in record ■ time. Gallagher probably will be tried on a charge of assault with attempt to kill. The penalty for this is a maxim um of twenty years. Under our com mutation rule, this means practically a sentence of twelve years. ' "Of course the condition of Mayor . Gaynor may delay action, but from the encouraging reports I have receiv . Ed the Mayor will be spared to us." ; CONDITION STILL SERIOUS. ; While the Mayor's condition is ad j mittedly still very serious and the phy i sicians would not commit themselves ; on any statement as to the outcome, i Secretary Adarusou, who was one of ' those who remained with the Mayor , all night, said today that he consider ed the outlook very hopeful. Mr. Ad ; amson, however, was careful to im , press the possibilities of danger from t infection of the wound,which will re ■ main until the bullet is removed. There is also the danger, it was in • dioated by those who had watched the ' case closely, that the shot from Gal , laglier's revolver had passed so close t to an artery that hemorrhages might be brought on from an attenuated • j artery wall. The passage of time les -11 sens the probability of this, however, i j Mayor Gaynor has not been afflicted j j with an attack of hemorrhage since i j yesterday,shortly after he was brought ' | to thj^iospital. i A Reliable Remedy FOR 1 CATARRH Ely's Crsan Baim y' is quickly absorbed. , Gives Rche! at Once.
