About a dozen of the leaders were given a hearing yesterday afternoon, nine of whom were found guilty of disturbing the peace, and were lined $<; and costs. Squire MeKallip, of Eleanora, had a busy time yesterday hearing the evidence in th«* cases of a number of Lithuanians ami natives who Tuesday night broke in upon the peaceable ami orderly citizens of Eleanora, stoned pedestrians an.I hotels, and caused many citizens t«► lay awake that night. The Conservatives have been organizing all day, and the arrival of Col. James M. Guffey, "boss" of the Democrats ia the Keystone State, has helped their cause to a considerable extent. fJuffey is anti-Bryan, and makes no secret of the fact. The So-called conservatives are elated, and they characterize the demands of the Labo rleaders as "outrageous", and hope that an emasculated plank may be forced through. What 'will be done to relieve the situation i.s problematic. The Democratic leaders hope that when Hryan meets Gompers tonight at Lincoln, Nebraska, a compromise may be arranged. The position thus taken by the labor men has complicated the situation badly. The Bryan followers who had believed that the simple declaration that the injunction .should not be issued except in times of great emergency, as when a life or property in at s'.akc, and providing for jury •trials and a change of venue would satisfy the Federation of Labor and its allies had a rude awakening today when they heard the demands of the Labor men. tion in labor (disputes.

July 1.— Showers tonight; fair and slightly cooler Saturday. Uye, lik»» the other crops, is better lian lu.st year. The excellence of the yield is illuntrat«'d by a farm which Is located Ju*»t ac rows the river from Harrisburgf where two and one-half loads was the average per acre in a ten-acre held. Two loads is good yield to an acre. One thing which Is especially notl< ubl«' in ibis year's liav crop is the aniouut of clover In many fields, v h»ire only .straight timothy was planted a great deal of clover came up. In llebls where clover was plantt <1 tin crop has been much larger than was expected. The only explanation for this is that clover which was planted one or more years ago had lain dormant in the ground for si.me reason and came up this year. The shortage throughout the country in 1907 wan about GOO,000,000 bushels of gralti «>f all kinds. Should the weather hold as good throughout the season as It has been thus far I the crops are expected to be up to the standard or to surpass It. I Most of the hay crop hereabout* has been put in the barns. Tho yield Is unusually large and of exceptional quality.

Farmers evidently heeded the repeated varnings about testing1 the seed corn, however, and planted only what they were sure was good, for the crop promises to be excellent.
