Farmers Urged
• To Raise Stock
(By Associated Press.) ;
Austin, Texas, Nov. 6.—E. R. Kone,
commissioner of- agriculture has just
issued an appeal to the fanners of
Texas not only to diversify their
crops next year, but to center upon
th# horse and mule growing industry.
“Why should not Texas,” declares
Commissioner Kone, “the greatest
producer of horses and mules in the
United States, make the most of her
opportunities, instead of going along
in a rninous rut? Why should we
not get ready now to produce some-
thing on our farms that will com-
mand better prices than ever before
known, rather than waste money,
time and labor in producing cotton,
which we know that for the next
year or two that staple will, in all
probability, bring the lowest price in
its history.”
Mr. Kone points cut that in the
past year the number of horses on
Texas farms decreased from 1,269,432
to 1,170,968, while the value of these
animals increased from $34,497,083 to
1 $84,024,635 in the same period. Dur-
ing the same time, he says,'cattle de-
j creaked 2,483,610 head add ^iogS 760,-
j 749 head, while the increase in mules;
j < * 1 •
at an increased* value of nearly
$60,000*000, was only 168,277 head. ' >

Washington.—Probably few realized
recently when Germany threatened to
stir up the Mohammedans of the world
against the allies that the second most
exalted potentate of Moslem lands is
a protege of the stars and stripes.
According to tables of precedence
approved at Mecca the sovereign rank-
ing next to the sultan of Turkey is
the sultan of Jolo. >
The tactful American army officer
lets the sultan of Jolo ret&in all his
string of titles including that of “Over-
lord of the United States,” but his real
power is almost nil over the 350,000
Moros in the Philippines. He is al-
lowed, to be exact, the powers of jus-
tice of the peace, of Maibun, in tho
southern Philippines.
But by Mohammedan law he is yet
the religious and political guide of mil-
lions of Moslems in Siam, Johor, the
Federated . Malay States, Malacca,
Penang, Singapore, Java, Sumatra,
Borneo, Celebes, Mindanao and other
islands of. the East Indies.'
Nothing could illustrate better the
laek of unity in the Mohammedan
tribes and nations and the decadence
of the Moslem wdHd in a political
sense from the time of the conquests
of the Saracens and the Turks.
ThS-.aucestors of the sultan of Jolo
for centuries controlled and led nu-
merous pirate fleets that harried,the
Asiatic coast from Hindustan to Ton-
quin.,^ They converted by the sword
the' inhabitants of the East Indies
to the- faith of Islam. On these serv-
ices the sultans of Jolo received rank
—freely accorded to the present sul-
tan on his pilgrimage to Mecca—only
second to the commander of the faith-
ful.
If the sultan at Constantinople
Bhould proclaim a jehad or holy war
through the gheik-ul-Islam, the sul-
tan of Jolo would probably consult
some American second lieutenant on
the subject and then roll a cigarette
and discreetly retire
his harem. —
This brings us to the ques_____
much Mehemed V of Turkey could as-
sist the German emperor.
Despite the reduction of hiB domin-
ions in Europe by the Balkan wars,
the sultan could put more than a mil-
A 11 a LiftOlCUU
to the dsn/h of
te quecnon—how
them the. Mohammedans of Persia,
who are all Shuahs.
' It bars, too, the Moslems of Hindu-
stan, for the Shuahs here are the more
influential, though fewer in number.
And the Shuah to the Sunnite is “a
cursed heretic,” while the Sunnite is
called Van unreasoning fanatic” by
the Shuahs. •
Then, too, the different Mohamme-
dan communities are separated wide-
ly, geographically. They cling tena-
ciously, to their religion but they have
little intercourse, either of goods or
.of news.
It is fair to believe that a proclam-
ation by the Sultan at Constantinople
would not reach Moslems for many
months or even years. Then it might
be flouted.
Ethnographic&lly the Cossacks are
closely related to the Turks. But the
hard riders -of South Russia were in
the front ranks of- the. Czar’s troops
in the Russo-Turkish war and in the
present struggle they, would be unlike-
ly to desert on account of the com-
mand of the Sheik-ul-Islam. And as
for the Persian Mohammedans, they
would probably be attacked early in
the ^ar by the Sultan’s men. The
Kurds would raid toward Teheran and
Russians, Mohammedans and Persians
would oppose them.
The sultan of'Turkey might, how-
ever, cause a great deal of trouble by
rousing the - wild tribes of Arabia.
These Bedouins, always fighting the
Constantinople ruler, might' yet be
brought to his standard by a combina-
tion of religious fanaticism and desire
for booty. In British Somaliland, too,.
there are 500,000 Mohammedan ne-
groid natives, who remember -vividly
the wars of the “Mad Mullah” and
might be induced to take up arms
again. . . *
The Germans promise to take ad-
vantage of Egypt’s discontent. Egypt
has been ’under the domination of.
Great Britain since 1883. There have
been many pjlets against the govern-
ment in recent years and Turkish
emissaries have lately beqn very busy
in Egypt. But the discontented class
in the Nile valley is small. The
Fellaheen, who are not fighter§ any-
way, realize that British domination
has meant better crops and better
times. There are, however, about six
hundred thousand desert, nomads in
Egypt and these might be rallied to
the jehad. *
Cairo is the seat of Moslem learn-
ing. Here is the MosqUe and Univer-
sity of .El Azhar, with 15,000 students.
The Sheik-ul-lslam is himself a gradu-
ate. The students would join in a
jehad and their influence would he
considerable. But the 18,000 Egyptian
troops, who are officered by British,
probably would stand by their mas-
ters. • ■ .
In the rest of Africa, Tripoli, re-
cently conquered by Italy, might re-
volt. But Tunis and Algeria, which is
supplying the celebrated Turcos,
would be loyal to the tricolor.
Most of the negroes of Africa are
now Mohammedans, but there Is little,
unity among them. On the whole, the
39,000,000 Mohammedan Africans
under French rule, the 15,000,000 under
the British rule, and the 2,000,000
under Italian rule could scarcely be
reused to serious efforts against the
whites. The Kaiser has only 1,000,000
Mohammedans in his African territory.
Afghanistan is wholly Mohammedan
and Beluchistan 96 per cent, but the
Sultan of Turkey is not held in es-
pecial veneration.
Of the total population Of the Indian
^Empire, nearly 300,000,000, about 21
per cent, is Mohammedan. With very
rare exceptions the Mohammedan com-
munities are pro-British. They de-
spise the Hindus and seek to ally
themselves with the English against
the ipajority race. Both Hindu and
Mohammedan regiments from India
now fight for Great Britain in France,
They vie with each other, which' can
do the most for King George V.
A PRETTY new model In a boudoir
A or breakfast cap is shown in the
picture given here. It has no frills
about the face, which marks it as
unusual and a welcome variety to
the woman to whom frills are unbe-
coming.
In keeping with the present modes
there is a ruffle at the back across the
nape af the neck. The cap is attrac-
tively put together with triangles of
satin, bordered with narrow lingerie
lace at each side, and pretty bows of
satin ribbon ■* ornamented with tiny
chiffon roses to match the satin in
color.
The cap pictured here is made of
tic cqrd about eight inches long Is
run In the casing to form the ruffle.
The remaining edges are gathered
into a strip of bias tape 15 inches long.
The two'triangles are each seven and
a half Inches long at the base and
four inches high. A narrow edging
of val lace is stitched along the sides
of each as a finish. Rose-colored satin
was used in this cap to make themi
The bases of the triangles aTe sewed
to the edges of the cap at epch side
and turned back. The points, are
tacked down to hold them in place.
At the front a bow of satin ribbon,
with a little chiffon rose in place of a
knot at the center, is sewed between
a i shadow lace flouncing eighteen the points' of the- triangles. At each
inches wide. Only a half yard of the
lace is required to make it in the small
size shown. A lace twenty-two to
twenty-four inches wide is needed for
larger heads. The length of lace re-
quired is the same as the width, so
that the cap, is made of a square of
lace. !
The frill is made at the bordered
edge of the lace by stitching on a
piece of bias silk tape three inches
from the edge. A piece of flat elas-
side the termination of.the neck ruffle is
decorated with a small flat rosette of
satin ribbon a half inch in width.
Blue, pink, lavender and figured rib-
bons are all available if rose-color
proves unbecoming. ’ 1 .
Altogether this is one of the pret-
tiest of boudoir caps and may be made
so easily and with so little outlay
that anyone who likes may indulge In
this little luxury. • *

The situation growing out of the
failure of Plews to appear led to a
■spirited debate in the supreme court
between Attorneys- Hurlburt and
Whipple. The necessity of securing
the evidence caused Mr. Hurlburst to
suggest that he and Mr. Whipple, be
ordered to go to England to question
Plews. Whipple did not take kindly,
to the idea, and Judge Hammond
said he would not direct either attor-

Washington, D. C., Nov. 6—One
* w '
of the most important cases that ever
came before the customs court was
reached today, when arguments of
the departnlent of justice declaring
unconstitutional the rebate provision
in the tariff of 1913 were begun.
The provision of the tariff which
allows a rebate of five per cent for
goods shipped to this country in
ships of American registry is the
bone -of contention, and it involves a
huge amount of revenue collected by

HIS FISH WAS A SUBMARINE
.Californian’s Launch Was Pulled
Through the Waves by One of
Uncle Sam's Fleet Grafts.
San Francisco.—Honors fpr hooking
the biggest fish that ever got awdy go
to Marlin Ulrich, a salesman of Oak-
land, who, with a party of friends, was
out 'for a big fish in Ulrich’s launch
Germany off Angel island in San Fran-
cisco bay. Sqddenly his line gave a
violent tug.- He grasped it with all his
might.- So strong was the pull that the
launch began to plunge wildly through
the waves. ’/ , ■> '
After a few minutes-of- excited un-
certainty something I strange and
shapeless rose from a swirl of foam
ahpad.’ It. was submarine K-27 taking-s
practice spin. Ulrich’s hook had
fouled a rivet on the exterior of the
submarine. He cut the line.

ney for engineer Ross, , said he was
convinced Plews could not come, as
he was troubled financially by the
war and that he has a son at the
front.
It was decided to send interroga-
tories to a commissioner in London,
where the deposition of the witness
might be taken.. The result of this
action will be the main issue when
the case comes up tomorrow.
Ross, who is a mining engineer,
seeks to recover from Burrage com-
missions of 5 per cent on profits of
$25,000,000 alleged to have been made
by Burrage by the sale of mining in-
terests in Chile. Plews is also seek-
ing a £ per cent dommission, so that
the total amount involved is $2,500,-
000.

The opposition of the government
to the paying of the rebates is found-
ed on the fact that the rebate pro-
vision violates treaties between the
t
United States and other countries.
An official of the department of
commerce recently stated that the
issue will be bitterly fought on 'both
sides, for it is one of the most im-
portant questions of tariff legislation
and involves many issues.
