J ment that of an unknown man In a strange crowd,- -—-viJL. The Admiral’s sudden death Is at tributed to cerebral hemorrhage which attocked him shortly after he, with Mrs. Schley reached New York that morning from a visit to Mount Klaco and had ealled at the New York Yacht club for his mall. As j;the Amdiral was walking through west Fortjf-fourth street, a passerby who saw him stagger grasp ed his way quickly through the crowd Ha spite the strangers wervlre. ho w- ever, the admiral fell helpless to the slreet-and a physician who prees- hls way^fdickty through the crowd pronounced him dead. There was a gash over his right eye where his forehead had struck the sidewalk. A slight fracture of the frontal bone had ensued, but surgeons who examined the body ex pressed disbelief that this Injury in any way resulted In his death. His identity was established by letters and papers found in his pock ets and from an Inscription In his gold watch which had been present ed^ to the admiral by his native State of Maryland “for his heroism and memorable service In rescuing Lieut. A. W. Greely, U. S. A., and six rom- rades from death at Cape Sabine In the artic region on June 22,1884.' The spot where Admiral Schley died is In the very heart of New York's club district and members of these organizations were thickly clustered around awd soon establish ed the identification of the famous commander^ who figured so promi nently ^pr^the naval engagement of 189$ at Santiago. ifc^body w%0,£&kdrtb tne nearest police stationT After the usual for- raalttierpermission was given for the removal of the body to the Hotel Al gonquin, where Admiral Schley made Me home while In the city. As the body was bourne forth to the waft ing conveyance the throng about the station stood with bared heads. Bluejackets from the Brooklyn navy yard who bad keen summoned famished an escort, their command er being C. M. Devalen, a recruiting officer, who was with Admiral Schley on the cruiser Brooklyn at the bat tle of Santiago. One of ihe admiral’s sons, Dr. Winfield Scott Schley, Jr., reached the scene before the body was re moved. A message conveying the sad news to the admiral's other son, Capt. T. F. Sohley, at Fort Logan, Denver, Col., was dispatched. The EBttPC crop-of the growing TaoumrtwwMHFfrd. D, A. Walker, 152 _ season of 19H, which early in the year, gave Indications that it would be one of the largest in the history of the Industry, will approximate 13,- 868,337 bales of 500 pounds or about 200,000 bales more than the record of 1904 This, says a report from Washing ton, was Indicated by the final condi-. tlon report of the ddifartment of agriculture on Monday at noon which showed the crop to be 71.1 per cent of normal on September 25. While there were declines in the condition In most -States there was an Improvement of 2 per cent, in Texas and 1 per cent, in North Car olina. With an Indicated yield of 195 pounds to the acre, as unofficially es timated ffdm Monday’s condition fig ures, and the planted area, the 1911 crop undoubtedly will go'down asThe biggest on record. The estimated production of edt ton, based on the condition figures of Monday’s report shows the crop of Texas to be almost i,000,000 bales more than last year. Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas, Ixm- Isiana and Mississippi showed good Increases, Avhile South Carolina show ed a decrease. „ The estimated production, reckon ed by the department of agriculture official method from the crop report ing board’s condition figures with comparison of last year by States follows: — — 1911. 1910.
