WASHINGTON, .July 30.—Senator Matthew Stanley Quay is quit of the republican national committee, both as chairman and a member from Pennsylvania. The members of the executive committee didn't know when they met Wednesday night whether he would insist on his resignation or not. But when he ffave them copy of a letter he had sent to Chairman Andrews, of the Pennsylvania republican state committee, resigning from the national committee they knew he had finally decided to go. The letter to Chairman Andrews bore date of Wednesday, which showed that Quay had not fully made up his mind until the last moment. It was as follows:

WASHINGTON, July 89.—Hon. J. Sloat Fassett. Secretary of Iho National Republican Committee—Dear Sir: This Is to apprise you that 1 have to day forwarded to Hon. William Andrews, chairman of the republican state commlttec of Pennsylvania, my resignation aa a member of tho republican national committee from the state. Yours truly, "M. S. QUAY."

With this before them there was nothing for the members of tho executive committee except Ui acquiesce in his retirement from the chairmanship. They had not the power to accept the resignation so tliey tabled it till the national committee meets. By virtue of Quay's resignation Vice Chairman Clarkson became acting chairman of the committee, and to keep the record straight he was elected chairman of the executive committee. This does not mean that he cares to succeed Quay, but loaves him several months to determine whether ho cares to accept the responsibilities of the position until tho next national convention meets, for tho national committee will undoubtedly elect liim If he will accept.

Before adjourning the following resolution was adopted: "Resolved, That we accept against our Judgment and much doubt as to tho wisdom and expediency of It for tho party's Interest tho action of Seuator Quay, his resignation as chairman and mombcr of the national committee. In submitting to It, with so much reluctance and regret, we deslro to express from our own knowledge of tho facts of his pre-emi-nent service to tno party our sense of the deop obligation under which he has placed tho republican party and the causo of good government und patriotism In tho United States. He undertook the leadership of a doubtful cause In a time when tho republican party was disheartened and the democratic pnrty confident In the power of Bupremo control In tho government and In the nation, and when tho odds of the contest were against our party, and by his matchless power, his unequaled skill in resources, his genius to command victory, won for his party an unprecedented victory in tho face of expected defeat. We know,as no one else can know, that tho contest which he waged was one of as much honor and fair methods as It was of lnvinclblo power and triumphant victory, and that it was won largely by the power of his superior genoralshlp and his unfailing strength as a political loader. In tho great contcst of 1888, In tho months of sevoro effort, aud during years of oloso personal association with him we have learnod to know tho nobility of the man and we desire in this conspicuous manner to place on public record for tho present and for the future, as an enduring answer to tho partisan assaults of defeated enemy, our testimony In appreciation of his public services and bis personnl worth."

Col. Dudley's resignation as treasurer was also presented and it was accepted, as the executive committee had this power. Ilis services were also eulogized by his associates. Chairman Clarkson was authorized to name some one to take Col. Dudley's place as treasurer. Garrett A. Hobart, of Now Jersey, was chosen vice chairman in Clurkson's place, and the choice of William J. Campboll to succeed George It. Davis as a member of the national committee from Illinois was recorded.

At the day session the usual resolution authorizing the acting chairman and the secretary to call together the national committee was passed. Tho meeting will bo held in Washington in November and will lie early enough to insure a convention the fore part of May if desired. This was the sum of the day's business. There was, however, a great deal of discussion about the next campaign and the need of early organization. Tho work of the league clubs nml their relation to the national committee was mapped out satisfactorily.

Of the thirteen members of the committee there were present but seven— namely: Chairman M. S. Quay, of Pennsylvania Vice Chairman J. 8. Clarkson, of Iowa Secretary J. S. Fas sett, or

New York Treasurer W. W.

Dudley, of Indiana Samuel Fessendcn, of Connecticut Clarrett A. Ilobart, of New Jersey, and J. M. Ilaynes, of Maine.

Col. Scott, of Omaha, Nob., made a glowing speech in favor of holding the next republican national convention in that city. A large mass of correspondence was laid before the committee for discussion. Many active politicians in different parts of tho country had suggestions to make and conclusions to draw from the outcome of the last congressional election. Some pointed oat the dangers of the alliance movement in their state and submitted ingenious plans to meet its threatened inroads on republican party strength and others referred to various grievances and causes of dissatisfaction among republicans which might be overcome by proper treutmcnt. All of these communications that appeared to be of value were carefully considered, and particular attention was enlisted in behalf of an elaborate table analyzing in detail the last vote of the congressional election.

To the remonstrances of the members Wednesday night Senator Quay said that Clarkson or Kessenden could take up the work and he did not tliiult the committee would suiler by his

resignation. Quay was a good deal more cheerful than Clarkson and tho other members. lie said his advicoand his aid would always boat the service of republican committees, but he never again expected to bo the manager of a national campaign. He looked forward with great satisfaction to the uninterrupted performance of his senatorial duties. The laudatory resolutions passed by his colleagues were highly gratifying to him, and were a welcome acknowledgment that his work had not been entirely unappreciated:

INCUMBERED HOMES.

Figures oil Mortgage* Furnished by the Census Office. WASHINGTON, July so.—Census office mortgage figures are pretty well along. The counts of the farm and home transcripts have been completed, and the results are nearly correct, though the figures are subject to dftfclit modifications. There were returned to the enumerators of the United States'.',4111,930 farms and homes occupied by owners and incumbered by mortgages. This number includes some farms and homes about which enumerators made no report and which belong partly to the class of hired and partly to the class of owned free, as well as partly to the class of owned and incumbered. Until this unknown quantity due to the failure of the enumerators is eliminated it may be regarded as approximately true that 3,350,000 families of the 13,500,000 families of the United States live on incumbered farms and homes, and that 10,350,000 families occupy farms and homos that are either hired or owned free. The proportion of lured and owned free will be known when the population division completes the count of these points. The preliminary results indicate that the average debt for a farm in Iowa is S1.2S3 home, S719 average for farm and home, SI, 140. If these avemges hold good for the union the incumbrance on the farms and homes of the United States occupied by owners is about S3,505,000,000. The success of this investigation has been far beyond the anticipations of the most experienced statisticians, and the result will be of immense interest und value to the nation. Tho first volume relating to recorded indebtedness will probably go to press this year. Incomplete returns from several western states indicate that farms und homes are mortgaged for about ouc-third the value put upon them by the owners.

KKKfSKl) T«i MAKK A OTTAWA, Out., July 30.—The debate on the tarilT changes proposed in the budget speech elided at -I o'clock a. in., Wednesday when Sir Richard Cartwright's amendment favoring a reduction of duties ou necessities aud declaring that the Washington negotiations next October should be on a basis of reciprocity in manufactured as well as natural products was rejected—11 1 to SS.

NKW YOUK, July 30.—A Washington dispatch annonnees the conclusion of an important treaty of reciprocity between the United States and the republic of San Domingo. The treaty was negotiated by Maqucl De J. (lalvin, minister plenipotentiary aud envoy extraordinary, on the. part of San Domingo and John W. Foster, special commissioner, on the part oft il United States, and was signed in Washington June I. Under the terms of the MclCinlev bill the treaty does not require ratitication by the senate. As Seuor (lalvin was special ly authorized by his government to carry on the negotiations and was granted full power to si^n the convention the treaty will go into force without delay. September I is the day fixed upon. The full text will be ofliciully published within a few days. Both Secretary Blaine and the president have approved the treat}-.

Secretary Suurez, of the Dominican legation, has just returned to this city from a living trip to Han Domingo, where he laid the text of the. convention before President Heureaux and received his indorsement oil July 8. The -treaty follows closely the lines laid down in the convention with Brazil. In tho opening sections the authority of the MeKinley act for the free entry of sugar, molasses, eoffce, cocoa an.l hides is referred to and In reciprocity for those cou sessions the admission into Dominican ports is authorized of goods enumerated in two schedules which are appended, the one schedule without any duty and the other with a reduction of 35 per cent, upon the duty now levied. Iti the free schedule are enumerated various breadstuflis, potatoes, hay an 1 oats, pork and fish, cotton-seed oil, agricultural implements. mining and mechanical tools and material lor the construction and equipment of railways.

The admission into Dominican ports of a large number of articles with a reduction of per cent, on the present duty is a:il li irize.l by a clause in the treaty and a -liedule appeuded Including cured an.l canned meats and vegetables, maiiufaet-iires of cotton, iron and stei-1 not, included in the free, schedule, unmanufactured leather, lumber. and manufactures of wood, etc.

As iu the Brazilian treaty, this convention stipulates that neither government shall by administrative regulations adopted to protect, its revenues place any undue restrictions on the importer nor impose, any additional charges in fees.

Iu exchange for SI,715,000 worth of sugar the United States last year sent to San Domingo trillc ov"r S'J'J.'i,000 worth of goods which included wheat, Hour, lard, cottons, iron and steel manufacture and wood manufactures. A good deal of New England capital is invested in the island.

Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U. S. Gov't Report.

THE IN'SKCTS TltAV1CI.ING KASTWAIttl. DAYTON* 0., July 30. Grasshoppers are ruining the oats prospects in twenty counties along the Ohio and Indiana border line, and the devastation is most marked in the region around the headwaters of the Wabash, Miami and Maumee rivers. The crop is ruined by the small greenhopper on farm after farm, and many growers alarmed at the ravages of the pest cut their oats green, but the hoppers followed it into the shock and are now in the corn.

B:.UITTON, Ind., July 30.—The fields adjoining the Indiana and Ohio boundary lino are alive with grasshoppers, which are doing an inestimable amount of damage to the crops. Grain is being harvested earlier than usual in order to save it from the ravages of the insects, but In the majority of cases so much damage has been done as to render the crops of lint, little value. Tho grasshoppers have only appeared within the last few days, and they have been the source of no little consternation among the fanners, many of whoso crops wiil bo short fully a half. The hoppers seem to be traveling eastward, ami, while not much grain is being devoured, they ruin it by cutting off tho stalks.

POHTI.ANU, Ind., July 30—The telegrams stating that the grasshoppers are devastating the crops in the border counties of Ohio and Indiana have, so far as can bo learned by careful Investigation, good foundation mid are but little exaggerated. For the last two weeks the grasshoppers have been appearing in myriads in the section mentioned. They first appeared in the meadows and then

In the oat-fields. The latter crop, a portion of which was harvested before being fully ripe on account of their ravages. Is nearly all cut and grave fears arc entertained that the insects will now turn their attention to the corn. Farmers In this scctlon all tell tho same tale In regard to the hoppers' plentifnlness and make great complaint against their inroads. They say that the oats now standing are literally covered, and that as soon as it is harvested the corn will bo visited with disastrous consequences. Crops of all kinds were never better than they arc this year, and that they may be ruined by this pest is causing no small amount of uneasiness. The grasshoppers are of the green variety, such as have played such havoc in some sections.

DKCATI'U, Ind., July 30.—Grasshoppers arc doing serioils damage to growing crops east of this city near the Ohio line. They uppeared over a week ago. They rive consuming growing oats and have, begun the destruction of corn. Their numbers were not large ut llrst appearance, but they arc multiplying rapidly. Great anxiety exists among the farmers.

DUNVKK, C'ol., July 30.—Late Monday evening the wind blowing in from the wett brought with it thousands of Rocky mountain locusts. The air was ?.lleil with them until the electric lights were dimmed by their covering the globes. Stores were obliged to close their doors in order to keep the pests from covering and destroying their goods. The streets were for hours covered with them and thousands were swept oil' into the sewers. The hoppers were going east toward Kansas and Nebraska, and tho main body continued their journey without stopping.
