May wheat touched the lowest price jn years yesterday.

The election of Mr. Reichert to the trusteeship is practically an admitted fact.

The tariff fight with the Democracy will be furious by the time the conven tion meets in Chicago.

With the approach of danger from the high waters Louisiana representatives forget all the states rights traditions of the south and ask the federal government for an appropriation.

The call for the congressional district convention will be found in this morning's issue. The request is made that all the Bepublican papers in the district copy the call and publish it until the date of the convention.

Alex. Heron, secretary of the state board of agriculture of Indiana, says: "As to the present condition of the winter wheat crop in this state, we again report it in good condition. Occasionally there are some complaints on the western border of the state of damage by frost, but it is of a local nature, and generally where the wheat has been sown in corn-fields in a rough manner. After a personal observation during a trip of five hundred miles through the state and statements from good judges, I think the wheat crop of this state comparatively safe for this season with the acreage about the same as last year."

There has been no event in the history of the city that has so thoroughly advertised the advantages of Terre Haute as the opening of the Board of Trade. The following from the Brazil Register, is a sample of the notices that have appeared in almost every newspaper that comes to this office "Terre Haute has both eyes open to business. Her enterprising citizens have not only established a Board of Trade, but they have organized to advertise the advantages of the city as a manufacturing point, and have succeeded, within the last few months, in inducing the location in their midst of manufactories representing nearly a million dollars of invested capital"

DREAMING IN HIS WEDDING SUIT.

A New-Made Husband Found Whistling in tbe Street at 3:30 a. m. New York Sun.

Oscar Piper, a young German, who has been until recently a hospital nurse, went to his native land several months ago to get his betrothed. He returned to this city with heron March 15. On Saturday afternoon they were married iH Piper's rooms, 340 east Twenty-fourth street.

At 3:30 o'clock yesterday morning Policeman John Jennings arrested Piper on First avenue, near Seventeenth street. Piper had on his wedding suit and a pair of embroidered slippers, the bridal gift of his young wife. He baid he had been robbed of his watch, pin and $10 in money. He talked rather incoherently. At the Yorkville police court yesterday he was commmitted for examination as to his sanity. He said to Justice Duffy: "I am a physl cian and a professor of languages'"

Do you understand Latin, Greek and Hebrew," asked the justice. "Yes." "Do you understand the Irish language?" "Like a book." "Piper's wife visited hjm before he was taken to Bellevue. She said he had been acting queerly for several weeks. He left her at l.:.30 v^gfiing into the^ hall. When Policeman Jennings arrested him he was whistling for and beckoning imaginary coachmen. He was once a nurse of an in sane asylum, she said, and since one of the patients hit him a severe blow on the head he has not been right in his mind.

Gen, Lee's Sons,

Washington Letter to St. Louis Spectator. Gen. Kobert E. Lee left three or four sons. The elder, George Washington Parke Custis Lee, is president of the Washington and Lee university at Lexington, Va., the institution presided over by his father at the time of his death. He was a major-general in the Confederate army. The university over which he presides had some life and impetus given it by the heated sentiment that prevailed in the [south immediately after the close of the war, but latterly it has not prospered, and, like Virginia university itself, a school that held a first place so long, and that was founded by the great Jefferson, whose homestead overlooks it from a distant hill, it seems to have partaken of the general blight and decay that have fallen upon the once proud and magnificent state of Virginia. General Kuney Lee, another son of the great Confederate commander, leads the life ofa quiet Virginia farmer, caring more for fat calves and green medows than for a life of publie service to which the whole Lee family by an inexorable fate is denied admission. Doc. Lee as he is familiarly called, is the youngest son of Gee. R. E. Lee, and he is also a quiet farmer. His home is on the James, near Richmond. Just after the war he was somewhat reckless, and I have seen a gentleman here within the past week of whom he borrowed a quarter in a gambling extremiiy.

The Salary of United States Judges The Current. The proposed increase of the salaries of United States circuit judges from $6,000 to $7,000 a year, and of district judges to $5,000, is an eminently wise and proper movement. A short time ago the resignation of Judge McCreary to accept the position of attorney for a railroad corporation at very large salary, inspired a great deal of newspaper comment on the comparatively meager pay of the Federal Judiciary, so out of proportion to the importance of the work performed. The horror attached to a position on the Federal bench is great but men of fine qualifications occupying such positions usually have families, and they want something besides honor. They want and should have salaries approximating the income they could readily derive from the private practice 'which they are obliged to relinquish.

The same question was asked about the opera house, atoll bridge, a weekly newspaper, and a market house, and the same replies were received. "Is there anything in this town on which the Standard Oil company hasn't got its clutch?" finally asked the stranger. 'Why, yes there's the Baptist church." "And how does it happen that the company missed it?" "Well, its mortgaged for four thousand dollars, and it was cheaper for the Standard to £ive free Sunday excursions on the railroad, and draw the congregation out of town."

A PIOUS DEMOCRAT.

A Specimen ot Democratic Vulgarity—A Congressman Who Should be Retired. Washington Special to the Commercial

Enquirer.

There was rather a sensational scene in the rooms of the committee on elections to-day between Judge Lowry, of Fort. Wayne, Ind., representing that district in congress, and Representative Miller, of Pennsylvania. The latter is a Republican, peppery and fidgety, and always tor his party, right or wrong. Both are members of the elections commissions. There was under consideration the O'Farrell contested election case from Virginia. Judge IiOwry was defending a report made in the case, whereupon Miller replied that his statiemant was false, ana not borne out by the testimony. "You are a G—5 d—d liar," said Lowry, with excitement. Then, getting up from the table, Lowry walk to where Miller sat. "Yes," said he, "you area G—d d—d liar, and if you want to stand up to what you said, you 'are a G—d ." [The latter expletive is too bad even for the types." Mr. Miller was white with fear, and only added: "If this were in the house, I would call you to order." "This is recorded to show that congressmen stand by one another in the privacy of a committee as they do to the public eye in the house.

Mexico Reciprocity Treaty. The Current. The New Orleans Picayune and other Louisiana journals have been bitterly opposing the Reciprocity Treaty with Mexico, on the ground that it is hostile to the sugar and tobacco interest of the South. As a matter of fact the Louisiana sugar planters furnish and have for years furnished a very small portion of the sugar consumed by the people of the United States and the Mexican sugar product for export is comparatively small and will not now eflect the Louisiana men at all. It will only makfe a difference in American sugar purchases from Dutch and Spanish sources^ As for tobacco, the Mexican product is only worth between $2,000,000 and $30OO,000, while that of our country iB worth about $50,000,000. The opponents of the treaty argue that American tobacco will be "driven out of the market," which is a statement bordering on the absurd, for the tobacco grown in the United States is of a diflerent quality and adopted to purposes for which Mexican tobacco cannot so well be used by reason of the finer grade of much, of it. Most of the "fine Havana cigars," which Americans smoke are made in Havana of the fine Mexican tobacco, which is shipped to the Havana manufacturers. Such tobacco cannot be grown in this country, except, perhaps, in portions of the Red river region in Louisiana. .• l. "V

Tennyson's Politics.

London Telegraph, March 17. Lord Tennyson takes his seat in the nouse oi peers to-night, out mr. Herbert Spencer declines at any time to enter the house of commons. We have secured our poet, but not our philosopher. The Laureate has more than once woven political allusions into hid verse. "Maud," written at the time ot the Crimean war, Bhows traces of the anti-Russian feeling of the day. In "The Princess" we have some indications of the aversion aroused here by the favorites of Paris in 1848 and the date of the annexation of Nice might be gathered from ringing ballads against our distrusted ally. In 1877 the anti-Turkish tempest of the hour was fanned by a sonnet to heroic Montenegro. Even with the aid of these it might still be difficult to gather the prevailing politics of the poet, for they all simply illustrate sympathy with the national emotions of the hour an go towards justifying the cynic who wrote, "Poets are like birds, all noises make them sing." It would be easy to compile a group of extracts from the works of our youngest .baron to justify Conservative sentiment, while Liberal opinions might be equally encouraged by many of his stirring stanzas.

TEKRK HAUTE .EXPRESS. THURSDAY MORNING. MARCH 87. 1S84

A Prisoner's Cat, T'l-

Chicago News. Jail Deputy .Harper determined yesterday to end the life of huge black cat which has long haunted the corridors of the jail, and which is the property of Mrs, Bertha K-leinsmith, a shoptlifter, who is a prisoner there. He captured the animal and was about to carry it off and kill it, when Mrs. Kleinsmith set up a great clamor. "Don't kill my cat to-day, for the love of God," she screamed. "I'm going into court to be tried, and it will bring me bad luck if you kill it. That cat's death would give me ten years."

Deputy Harper was inexorable, bat his thoughts were distracted from his struggling victim. Just then the sheriff's telephone began to ring, and in striving to answer the call he forgot the cat altogether. The gaunt, black creature siid from his arms, darted through the grated outer door and disappeared. Mrs. Kleinsmith went to trial with a calm bosom, and with no superhuman agency to bring about her conviction.

The woman is 35 years old, and is an expert shoplifter. She pleaded guilty to three indictments before Judge Gardner yesterday, together with Mary Anderson and Mary Clark, for stealing $92 worth of ostrich feathern from the wholesale millinery store of D. B. Fisk & Co., on Wabash avenue. The case will be completed to-day.

Kxtraordlnary Cores Effected by a Woman Without the Aid ot Medicine. Rockford (111.) Special.

Mrs. Shroud Smith, of Liverpool, has just effected four remarkable cures by means of prayer, faith, and layingon of hands. Mrs W. J. Swits, the wife of a prominent grocer, has been ill with rheumatism for ten months, was scarcely able to walk, and has not been out oi the house without assistance during that time. Mrs. Smith placed her hands on the sufferer's Bhoulders, conjured her to have full faith that the Lord could cure her, and prayed fervently. Next day Mrs. Swits walked at least half a mile, unaided, and her disease has left her. Mr. L. W. Adams, so great a sufferer from asthma that he could scarcely speak above a whisper, underwent aimuar treatment, ana is now entirely well. Mrs. G. R. Vanhome was cured of chronic neuralgia, afid Mrs. S. M. L. Henry, the temperance apostle, of the effects of spinal disease. In the latter case Mrs. Smith placed her hands on the spot, and ask: "Do you believe it God's will that you suffer this pain?" "I do not," said Mrs. Henry. "Then," responded Mrs. Smith, "lay it right off," at the same time offering prayer. "In a few moments," said Mrs. Henry. "I experienced a change that was simply inexpressible. The flashes of pain along the spine to the back of my head almost instantly disappeared, and such relief I cannot describe. I feel this moment in perfect health. ,...

Conkling and the Witness. In the Hoyt will case at New York, gays a special dispatch, Mr. Roscoe Conkling, who represents the petitioner, MissHoyt, in the case, got hold of Mr. Vansantvoord for cross-examina-tion and infused some life into the proceedings. He asked the witness at the outset if he knew what he did in regard to the estate the first thing after he heard of Mr. Hoyt's death. Mr. Vansantvoord didn't remember doing anything until the day of the funeral, August 17. Mr. Conklirg then 1 88k®de "Had you given advice regarding the serving of the citation papers before returning to the city "Quite likely I had." "Where did you advise that papers should be served upon Miss Mary iHoyt?" "At her mother's house." "Didn't you know that Miss Hoyt twas not at her mother's house?" "No I did not." "Didn't you know,"' inquired Mr.

Conkling, in a significant tone, "that she was actually prevented from coming there?" "No, I did not," replied Mr. Vansantvoord, warmly.

Miss Hoyt, it may be stated, was at the time in a private asylum. "I will show," said Mr. Conkling to .the'surrogate, "either that he does not know'anything at all of this matter, or else he says what he knows to be false." "1 won't allow any one to say that of me," cried Mr. Vansantvoord angrily, his face flushing. "You won't prevent my Baying it,' retorted.Mr. Conkling. "I do say it now—to you." "Sir," stammered Mr. Vansantvoord, livid with rage, "I'll—I'll take care of you, sir." "I'll take care of myself," replied Mr "I shall not allow any such contro verey between the counsel and this witness," said the surrogate, sternly. "Well, I wont be bulldozed," savagely retorted Mr. Vansantvoord.
