STANDARD OIL SAID TD BACK REVOLT Huerta Officials Accuse an American Company of Bribery.
NEW YORK, Sept. 22. A Washington dispatch to the New York American says: Officials of General, Huerta directly accused the Standard Oil company of financing the Madero revolution, of attempting to bribe Huerta and of declaring that the present revolt would continue until the provisional president met the oil company's terms. These accusations were based on the following dispatch from Mexico City to Huerta's aids in this city: "A wealthy land owner in the state of Jalisco makes sensational declarations regarding the part played by the Standard Oil company in Mexican events since the incipiency of the Madero revolution. He declares that while in San Antonio the Texas Standard Oil manager for the southern district of the United States told him that until the Standard Oil should obtain complete possession of oil wells in Mexico revolutions would continue. That is the reason the Standard Oil supported the Maderists and opposed Reyes movement. "The Standard Oil offered to present the Mexican government with a $200,000,000 loan on easy terms, almost at par besides making assurance that the Huerta government would receive immediate United States recognition. The representative of the Standard declared his company controlled the United States senate. "It offered also to pay a tax of 12 Vi cents a barrel on oil instead of 5 cents, the tax paid by British companies, the principal of which is the Aguila Oil company. "The Standard Oil representative lsclared his company would not rest until Mexico has the president and government it wants. He said he believed the present government de jure and de facto, but unfortunately it has not accepted the Standard Oil terms." When the Madero revolution first started officials here declared that the cources of the rebel funds would be found in Wall street, but no investigation was ever made there.

Club today. "There is no reason why the people of Wayne county should not demand greater protection from this great scourge which claims so' many victims in this community annually."
"If any person in Richmond is
stricken with smallpox he is promptly taken to the detention hospital. Victims of tuberculosis, a disease ten times more deadly than smallpox, receive no such solicitous attention from the health authorities" said a physician today. "If it is necessary to isolate smallpox cases why is it not vastly more important to isolate tuberculosis cases?'' He then produced records to show tiat tuberculosis kills more people -ually in this county than any cthxen diseases. Every two hours, i-isae records show, the grim white plague claims a victim in Indiana. The death toll from this scourge in Wayne county in 1911 totals forty-five In 1912 there were fifty-four deaths from this flisease, an average of one death to every four cases. The 1913 death list will be the greatest in the history of the county. 250 Sufferers. At the present time, physicians estimate there are 250 people in this county suffering from tuberculosis. "As you will see by the records ninety-nine people have died in Wayne county the past two years from tuberculosis. This wholesale sacrifice of human life has attracted little or no attention from the general public," said the physician. "Suppose ninety-nine people had died from smallpox in two years. It is easy to forecast what the result would have been. In the first place there would have been a rigorous quarantine establise,d, there would have been a general panic and business would have been stagnated. "But the ravages of a disease ten times more dangerous than smallpox are calmly ignored. I tell you it is high time, that some plan of action to combat this plague be formulated."
of buckwheat was harvested. The !
yield was fifteen bushels. The potato crop this year was normal thought only 168 acres were devoted to raising this vegetable. The yield on 168 acres was 15,397 bushels. There is a shortage of "Murphys" all over the country, according to the county agricultural agent. Wayne county is one of the ten counties in Indiana where potatoes are not cultivated on a comparatively large scale. Though climatic conditions have been excellent for a good potato crop here a small crop is reported by farmers. Throughout the Middle West the potato crop is smaller than it has been for years. Local authorities believe this is due to the drought. Onion Crop. Five acres of onions yielded 1,540 bushels the report sets outSeventy acres of land in Wayne county yielded 5,255 bushels of apples, peaches, pears, and similar fruit. A large per cent of the orchard land of the county is 'either unproductive
or the produce is not marketed. Wayne county kept its usual standard last year in the production of berries, there being 3,4446 bushels marketed from fifty-four acres. The watermelon and canteloupe crop was valued at $1,250 though only thirteen acres were used in raising this crop. Only along the eastern line of the county was tobacco raised. Nineteen acres yielded 16,500 pounds. The tomato crop this year was as good as usual. The crop will be approximately the same as last year. The quality of tomatoes this year is
somewhat better than last year though the yields of both years are similar. Seventy-five acres yielded 232 tons, according to Mathews' report. Timothv hay was raised more extensively "in 1912 than in 1911. The production this year is about normal. More than 12,274 acres were devoted to raising this farm of feed, the yield being 12,362 tons. Alfalfa Crop Light. The alfalfa crop in Wayne county does not compare favorably with other counties where it is raised more extensively. County Agent Cobb intends to stimulate interest in the pro-
duction of this form of feed. In 1912 j only 289 acres were devoted to rais- i
ing alfalfa. The yield was 689 tons. It is believed by Agent Cobb that the production of alfalfa will be doubled here within a short time. Ninety-two acres, yielding 117 tons of prairie, millet and marsh hay were reported. The clover crop for 1912 was 7,081 tons from 7,682 acres. As many as 3,233 bushels of clover
seed were gathered, from 2,5448 acres, j Soy beans and cow peas promise to , become popular here as experiments j are now being tried out in the vicinity !
of Cambridge City and Milton. The j
nodules on the roots hold nitrogen m j the ground and the crop does not i
harm the soil in any way. Only nonetyfive acres were devoted to raising Soy beans and cow peas though the acreage will be larger it is expected. From the ninety-five acres 120 tons were gathered. Many Horses. Wayne county has been the source of the supply of many horses during the last ten years and last year 1,218 were sold here. The price for this number was $131,517, according to the report. There were 7,609 horses and colts in this county January 1, 1913, which were valued at $734,883. One hundred and forty-three mules were sold in this county in 1912, the selling price being $17,635.

The 5,722 milch cows in Wayne county in 1912 were valued at $214,673. From this number of cows, 2,572,322 gallons of milk valued at $319,159 was used or sold by the dairymen. The cream in Wayne coupty in 1912 was estimated at 64,349 gallons, selling at $440,457. The amount of butter produced here was 492,902 pounds valued at $111,592. The cattle sold in 1912 numbered 6,972, the selling price being $283,187. As many cattle valued at $8,422 died
of disease. There were 35,276 hogs on hand January 1, 1913. These were valued
at $392,998. As many as 66,025 hogs were sold, bringing $915,012. Hogs valued at $82,506 died from the ravages of disease.

The total number dozens off poultry sold in 1912 was 8,-
523. The selling price was $44,927.
MINISTERS DIFFER ONION VIEWS Make Decision to Look for Noted Evangelist and to Hold Big Meetings.
the churches could be affected in order to conduct a campaign. The sanction of the association was requested, and all the ministers present gave their personal views on the subject. Rev. Conrad Huber I am personally in favor of such a movement and I believe my church will support it. Rev. T. J. Graham I am in favor of the plan and know my church will give support. Rev. Thomas McNary The plan for union is not practical in Richmond. We are not advanced Christians. We are too sour, and selfish to allow the kingdom of God to be bigger in our hearts than our particular churches. The idea of the Union is ideal, but I believe the simultaneous meetings will be more practical." Alpheus Trueblood The results of a united effort are always worthy of the effort. We should lose sight of the methods of our churches in a city like Richmond for the good of the masses. Thousands of people in this city never enter a church. It is a responsibility we can't shirk." Rev. Arthur Cates I believe in the
simultaneous plan, but all churches do not have the same methods. 1 am not optimistic for the union evangelistic plan. "We will do better work in our own churches, working in our own methods and securing men who will fit into them. Rev. S. R. Lyons My congregation will enter heartily into such a union. In my own personal life 1 have been helped by such meetings. I have never attended one that I did not feel uplifted. We coddle our people too much. Let us stop doing it and make them realite that they must help others. The people of our community are too desperately cold. Rev. J. S. J-ightbourn It we can do concerted work, we shall do it. but I believe that we can do more real good by having simultaneous meetings. I have no sympathy for sensational revivals." Rev. Leonard "The simultaneous effort will make the movement more in the nature of a contest. As for sensational revivals, the time is ripe in Richmond for something sensational in religion."
Rev. E. G. Howard I dont believ that turning from our church work to participate in the work of the union would be advisable. The best work of the hour should be in our own churches. Let personal work and union within the churches precede the evangelistic work." Rev. Sampson We haven't enough faith in God, man. or ourselves. Let u back the movement and it will uplift the conditions in Richmond that are to be deplored. Rev. S. W. Traum. of the First Christian church, expressed himself in favor of the united effort, and said that the movement for closer union should start in the ministerial association.

When the matter of inaugurating a city-wide evangelistic movement in which all the churches were to co-operate, was brought before the Ministerial association today, it was found that the ministers were divided on the subject and much discussion ensued before a satisfactory disposition of the matter for the present was arranged. The matter was settled by voting unanimously that the committee continue its activities and that if a satisfactory evengelist can be found, that the ministerial association and the congregations represented would support a movement for a big evangelistic meeting of all the churches. The committee on evangelism, consisting of the Rev. Truman Kenworthy, chairman, the Rev. E. R. Leonard, and the Rev. B. E. Parker, reported as being favorable to an immediate effort to secure for the city some method whereby a union among all
