The question of the hour anions the householders ot Chicago Is, When will the butcher, the baker and the landlord atop shoving up tho prices of tho necessities of life? Groceries and rents are higher now than they ever were before, and still. In the opinion of many compoteat to judge, the end Is not yet reached. Every trip to the grocery or meat market costs more than the preceding journey, and yet the family larder Is not better stocked. The anticipation of the hungry crowdi to come has raised the prices of eatables enough already, and It stands to reason

that when tho visitors are really there their demands will encourage the grocers and butchers to boost prices still higher. Big crops of all kinds Is the. only

salvation of the Chicago man with a slonder purse this year, for with tho prospect of largo receipts tho merchants inny nllow the prices to droop a llttlo. As for rents, they have advanced In all purls of the city, and the 1st of May will probably see another raise. Furnished houses arc in great demand, and there is an equally largo supply. Thousands of families have rented their furnished homos to visitors from abroad and will hoard during tho summer, at the same time pocketing a comfortable profit All classes of people are doing this.

Three meetings were held In Clovelnnd, Ohio, about a month ago, and as a result an aggregate Increase of S3 per ton on the finished product was ordered. The reason given is that, the price of the raw materials was steadily on tie Increase. Thursday nbont a dozen of the manufacturers met at tha Weddt-li House and decided to put tbe price up another dollar. The Now York World devotes five columns to an attack upon tbe su:ar trust. It accuser that monopoly of robbing the people ot $13,000,000 a year, and calls on Attorney General Oiney to make It his first duty to "smash this trust " It quotes tho portions of tho Democratic platform and of Mr. Cleveland's Inaugural address In relation to trusts and monopolies and the text of the trust law passed by Congress in 1190. It gives a history of the sugar trust. Bad se.'ks to demonstrate that the law has been and Is constantly being violated. Macmanus & Sons, bankers, of Chihuahua, Mexico, have suspended, with liabilities of SI, 000,000. Tho cause of the suspension was land and mining speculations. The New York World continues Its attack ori tho trust The subject of a livecolumn article is the rubber trust which it characterizes as "younger but no Itss Insolent than tbe sugar monopoly." Says the World: "Getting Its raw material free, and protected by a duty of :10 per cent on manufactures the rubber trust thrives and grows rich, while the oople are helpless About two-thirds of the rubber goods manufactured in the world are mamtfactuied here. While the goods are, In some linos, not Inferior to foreign products, in fact command foreign markets, in the markets of the United States they got exorbitant price i Like the sugar trust and scires of other monopolies, it Is loo Drmly intrenched to lo dismayed by the repeal of tbe tariff law. That would rob It of part of Its spoils, bin not nlL The antl- trust ia.v faithfully and zealously enforced by Attorney General Olnoy must destroy it lnd give life to competition strangled by the monster." R. G. Dua Si Co, 'a weokly review of trade says: i'he fact of largest Influence in t lie record of the last week hus been the increased distribution of goons. Tho stringency often seen about this lime does not appear nor are other money markets close. But while Imports greatly exceed exports. It Is not afc to calculate that outgoes of gold will ac t again disturb confidence. Ilonce the broak In important speculations has Its hi pelul side. Instead of rising after the close of the Lancashire strike, cotton fell H- which may accelerate exports, though sticks of American catton In Europe are st ill a third larger than usual at this season.

ELECTIONS ELsKH IIKliK. Hooker Kleeted to the Supreme llenell in liehlgan. A Detroit dispatch says that there is no doubt of the election of Hooker dtep.) to the Supremo Bench by a plurality of 10,000 or over, and lire l!epublicnn candidates for regents have won a Btill grout or victory. In the old Democratic strongholds, such as Wayne and Saginaw Counties, the liopublicnns have made great gains. They novo captured (irnnd Rapids, Ann Arbor, Manistee, Loosing nnd other cities fortnerlv Democratic. Th 1 Demo l-iita ele. t Jfayors at Yi 6tlnnti nnd l'ort Huron, overturning Tiepublienn 11 ajorlties. All tho proposed constitutional amendments have undoubtedly carried, tho opposition being Inconsiderable. A light vote was polled throughout tho State. Licence Isritlp In Minuesota. Fnrty lines were not closely drawn in Minnesota? cities, the contests generally hinging on the question of li, ense. At Anoka tho Democrats and 1'opulists united against tho ltepuldn ans and electod George MuCnu ey Mayor by n majority of 121. The ombinaCon also electod nil the Aldermen except one and nil the other city ofli-.-crs except Treasurer. Donald Grant iRep.i was chosen Mayor of Faribault. At Ada W, II. Bangs wns elected.

Henry Zclegeuhcini, for Collector, and Charles Nage', for President of the Council (Republicans), defeat their Democratic opponents by still larger majorities.

The Democrats carried Milwaukee, electing ail their judicial candidates and sending Mayor Peter -I. Somors to Congress to Mil the vacancy caused by the election of John L. Mitchell to tlio Cnited States Senate.

Tho Republicans (lid some hard and quiet work and got out a large .olc, but the Democrats were equally active At Kiiringllf'!)!. III. At Springfield returns from over half tho city show that the entire Democratic cily and township ticket is elected by decisive niujoritios.

Tlio result of the municipal elections in Nebraska as shown by returns from towns lei resenting till portions of the State arc without special political significance. .In many places the issue was licence or 110 license or high license or low license.

WINTER WHEAT CROP. VaryinR I'oliilil limit Iteportril from Kti-ven Slates. A detailed report in the farmers' Re view covering eleven States shows that thoie has been little improvi nienl in tho condition of winter wheat since the last report. The present condition in Illinois is not even fair. Most of the reports run from lair vo pi-or. In some

conn Hos the late sown wheatls found to bo killed and will have to bo plowed up. On clay lands especially the damago In some counties has been great. In other rtmiitles the late sown wheat sprouted after the advent of winter nnd su'.'h fields wc to killed by the later sove:' weather. In Indiana tho general condition Is fair. The wheat thai got a good start last fall is generally doinj; well. Some of the Holds that were believed damaged are reviving, but slowly on account ot the cold nights. Much' of the wheat on the low lands has been damaged by excessive wet. Ohio reports show the condition to bo much better than either of the two Statementioned. The condition varies from fair to good. Tho early wheat is looking well, but late is not so promising, in many counties tho stand Is very good and without any disaster will make n flno crop, in Michigan Urn condition varies greatly, some reporting very good and sonic very poor prospects. The general condition is fair. Considerable damage lias resulted from freezing. In some counties the crop is still covered with snow, and condition cannot bo determined. In Kentucky Hie general condition is only fair. Much of the wheat was frozen out. In Missouri most of the correspondents report fair. A few report, poor and a few good, fiomo wheat has been frozen out, and the lields look dead, while other fields look well. Conditions in Kansas are. a little better than In Missouri. Tho ef p needs rain badly. fu bra-ka the general condition is good, but in most counties there has been ns yet little growth. A few counties report the condition as bod. In Iowa and YVi-cousin tho condition is reported as lair to good. In Wisconsin many of tiie win nt .Holds nro still covered with snow. Reports from Minnesota are too meager to summarize. The outlook for fruit is generally good The trees ripened their wood well in the fall, and the buds uro well dove opo.l. The condition at present is reported at from fnir to good from all the States covered by our report of winter wheat. A few counties in IU:.nols and Michigan report the outlook poor. JUDCE RICK'S DECISION,

Hectare, Against the. llo.Ycott oi' the I,n- ) ooinotlve Knu'lnccrs. ' Now that the text of Judge. Rick's decision In the Ann Arbor strike cases is published, the Court's position appears not at all revolutionary. Ho declares that the Brotherhood of Locomotive l.ngiieers has no right to maintain a boycott against the interstate freight of nnj- toad on which there may buastiibo. The ordei ing and furthering of such ,1 boycott, he says would bo criminal, under section U of the interstate commerco law. lie, therefore, enjoins Chio' Arthur and the brotherhood from enforcing the boycott rule against tho Ann Arbor Road. But when he comes to the individual rights of the engineers he declares that Clark, Case, Rutger, and Conloy acted within their rights iind were entitled to quit :he service of the Lake Shore Ron 1 when they did. These engiuecrs, employed by the Lako Shore, were ordered, in turn to haul our a Lake Shore train in which there were Aim Arbor Curs. Each in turn replied that he Would quit the road's service. This, Judge Ricks says, they had a right to do. Engineer Lennon, who, being out on a run, refused to switch an Ann Arbor car into his train, is judged gui.ty of contempt of court and fined. It seems, therefore, that the right of each individual engineer to refuse to mnko a run with n train containing cms for o- irom n roal on which there is n strike is aflinno 1. But if preconcerted action to the end should be proven it would constitute a crime punishable bv a heavy flue. llmv tin- World Wa:;sMiss Massi, the actress, wife of Frederick do Belleville, died at -'ew York.

fUERVOUS DISEASES. As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has 'een abk to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very plcasan. and harmless in all its effects upon the vouugest child or tho oldest and most delieatj individual. Nine-tenths of ail tho ailments to which tho human fondly is heir, aw dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired digestion. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general rtate of debility of" the brain, sp-nal marrow and nerves is the result. Starved nerves, liks starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of focd is supplied, and a thousand weaknesses and ailmcnis disappear as the nerves recover. As th s nervous system must supply all the power by vLieh the vital forces of th J body are carried on, it is the first to suffer for vant of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food dot s not contain a sufficieut quantity of the kitid of riutrimenfc necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living ai'.d labor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary tbpc a nerve food bj supplied. This recent production of the South American Continent has bee 1 found, by analysis, to contain the essential elemeuts out of which nerve tissus is formed. This accounts for its magic power to cure all forms o;: nervous
