GASH REGISTER STOCK DOUBLED AT DAYTON

COLUMBUS, O.. Sept. 7 The National Cash Register company, of Dayton, today increased its capitalization from $15,000,000 to $30,000,000. The increase was made in the company's second preferred stock, which was Increased from $5,000,000 to $20,000,000. The fee paid the state government in the transaction was $50,005. C. of C. Directors Discuss Activities for Winter Discussion of activities to be started during the succeeding months was to be the feature of the meeting of the Chamber of Commerce board of directors when they met at 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. Work in the women's division is to be started next Monday afternoon when the division meets at the chamber rooms at 3 o'clock. Mrs. A. W. Roach is chairman of the division. WESTMINSTER (Continued from Page One.) was further represented by detachments from the Howden airship base and the battleship Utah. Send Representatives. Members of the British cabinet were out of the city attending the meeting of the cabinet council at Inverness but they sent representatives to the service. The Lord Mayors of London and Bull, the mayors of Westminster and Bedford, the high commissioners for the British dominions of their representatives were also in attendance. The Rev. H. D. L. Vener, chaplain-in-chief of the Royal Air froces, delivered a short address in which he referred to the association between the air forces of England and America, "in developing a once-formidable engine of destruction into a pioneer of closer relations between the two nations they represent." Describes Collapse. He then describes in a few terse sentences the sudden collapse of the ZR-2 which cost so many gallant lives. "The price of progress and the toll of science" he added "are bitter enough. Yet thank God there never is a lack of splendid men ready to do and to dare. It is best so. To be. in the forefront of the fight to conquer what half a generation ago was an untried field will ever appeal to our splendid manhood." A feature of the choral service was the magnificent rendering of the "Battle hymn of the Republic" and "The Star Spangled Banner." WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. The American dead of the ZR-2 disaster will arrive at New York Sept. 16 or 17, aboard the British cruiser Dauntless, and on arrival memorial services will be held at the dock. Secretary Denby announced today after a conference of department officials called to arrange a fitting reception for the bodies. The Dauntless, which was scheduled to sail today from Davenport. England, will under the arrangements made be escorted into New York harbor by destroyers and aircraft. She will dock at the Brooklyn navy yards where at 2 p. m., Sept, 17 memorial services will be held. Relatives of 12 of the 16 dead have requested that burial take place in their respective home towns, and this Is considered to preclude any official funeral at Arlington, such as had been proposed. The bodies of Comm. Louis Maxfield, of St. Paul, Lieut. Comm. Valentine N. Bigg, of Bryn Mawr. Pa., and Chief Machinist's Mate George Welch, of Elgin, 111., alone will be intered at Arlington. The body of Lieut. Comm. Emory Coyl, of Marietta, O.. will by request, be buried at sea, while the Dauntless is en route to the United States. PLYMOUTH, England, Sept. 7. The British war ship. Dauntless, slow ly steamed out of Plymouth Harbor this afternoon with the bodies of Commander Louis H. Maxfield, and 14 of his fellow officers and men, who lost their lives in the disaster which befell the ZR-2 at Hull two weeks ago. As the funeral ship started on its voyage to New York the guns of the j outer harbor fortifications bombed a farewell in honor of the Americans, who a few weeks ago were anticipating a return home aboard the new American Aerial Goliath. The bodies of only 14 will reach the United States, however, as the wish of Commander Emory Coyl to be buried at sea will be complied with. The body of the 16th American victim, that of John T. Hancock, will be buried in London. He was born in England and his parents are residents of London. nmfiiiiiiimmmiiniiiiiiiiiuitiiiiiiiHiiunuiHiiiiuiiniiimiiittiniimiuiMuti)' I Buy Your Winter Stove Now fHolthouse Furniture Store! i 530 Main St. I iitiumniniai!m..i jnMfiHaimHiiimiiiiiiiniitmuitiiiiitttiMmiimMntn McDougall Kitchen Cabinets $1 Down, $1 per Week Weiss Furniture Store 505-513 Main St.

SCULLY LAND OWNERS ORDER RENT REDUCED; FEAR STRIKE THREAT

LINCOLN. Neb., Sept. 7. Abatement of 20 per cent of this year's cash rentals for lands of the Scully estate owned by the Scully family of England, and totaling 210,000 acres in Illinois, Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska was announced here today by Trapp & Fox, general managers of the properties. Over 31,000 acres of the Scully land lies in Logan county alone and is tenanted by 220 farmers. The reduction on Illinois lands brings the rental down to less than $7 per acre, it was said. In addition, a reduction in the clover acreage provided in the leases was made. Sculys Live in England. The Scully lands are owned by Thomas A. Scully and Fred Scully, brothers and residents of England. The estate has been in the family for generations and passed into the hands of the brothers upon the death of iheir father several years ago. Thomas Scully owns the Illinois and Nebraska lands, while his brother, Fred, owns the acreage in Missouri and Kansas. Their accounts are kept separately, but the same policies are carried out in connection with all the properties. TOPEKA, Kas., Sept. 7. Whether the decreased rental for tenants on the Scully estate in Kansas will forestall the threatened strike of the tenants this fall, in advance of the wheat growing season, is regarded as quesionable. The tenants have been demanding a 40 per cent reduction in the rentals and they are threatening to move on masse from the farms owned by the famous English family. They have been holding numerous school house meetings. At a big picnic at Antelope recently, a large part of the tenan's agreed to insist upon their demands for reduced rentals or refuse to sign the leases anl put in a crop of wheat. Rents on Cash-Per-Acre Basis. The Scully estate in Kansas consists of approximately 55,000 acres. This is farmed by about 350 farmers, some of whom have been on these farms for many years. Duing his lifetime, the late Lord

Scully adhered to the policy of renting! of Mrs. Anna A. Bankert, 4173 Washhis land to farmers on a basis of so I ington street, Indianapolis, vs. Edward

manv dollars per acre, and the ten ant was required to pay the taxes and make such road improvements as seemed necessary. The same policy has been followed by the estate. The tenant may build himself a house and bam, put up fences and make other improvements, but when he quits his tenantry he must take the improvements along with him, or sell them to the incoming tenant. There are few orchards on the Scully lands and driving through them it is noticeable that there are few good houses or barns. Shortly after Lord Scully obtained his vast aceages in Kansas, the legislature enacted an alien land law. The law was declared unconstitutional by the courts later. But Scully never took any chances with it, for he became an American citizen so that he could continue to hold his vast land holdings. FARMERS TAKE OVER OHIO GRAIN ELEVATORS COLUMBUS, Sept. 7. The task of linking up machinery in Ohio, with that of the United States Grain Growers' Inc , has been undertaken by the Ohio Farm Bureau federation. Ohio farmers, through the federation are organizing the "Ohio Plaji," a statewide co-operative grain marketing plan. It's completion, it is expected, will see practically all of the grain elevators of the state in control of the farmers. 'One of the first steps in the movement, it is announced, will be to establish co-operative local elevators wherever one is justified, and one is not already in operation. "Wherever possible, elevators already established will be taken over." The other immediate step will be to set up a state sales agency. This is the co-operative Union Elevator at Cleveland, stack for which is now being sold to local farmers' elevators only. The co-operative union elevators has a capital stock of $300,000, and a third of this has already been subscribed. Scientists say that a flowering plant j abstracts from the soil 200 times its I own weight in water during its life. I
