lantic States, reports indicate that the weather was favorable for all growing crops and that cotton is ininroving rapidly; also, that tobacco in Tennessee, Kentucky and Virginia was improved and progressing f nely, except that planted in low ground in Virginia, which is sutlcrmg from excessive rains. In the Middle Atlantic fatates the week was generally favorably for harvesting and growing crops. In New lork an average crop of wheat, rye and bailey Is reported, while corn is poor, potatoes fair and oats above the average. 1 he excessive rains have doubtless injured the fruit crops in New Jersey, and grapes are reported as a failure. Excessive rains were generally injurious to all except the corn and bean crops in northern New England, while in the southern portions of New England crops were generally improved, except cranberries, which were greatly injured by hail and vine-worm. Keports from Oregon state that an average wheat crop is being harvested rapidly, bat that the recent warm, dry weather has caused gome injury. THE GKEENIJACItCRS.

They Will Define Their Own Policy Regardless of Other Sentimental Organization. Washington, July 28. Chairman George O. Jones, of the national Greenback committee, will to-morrow issue a circular letter in which he will say: "In reply to many inquiries from Prohibitionists, female suffragists and representatives of other sentimental and eemi-political organizations, asking admission to, or what action will be taken by the coming Green back convention on the questions . thev represent. I desire to say, witli due respect to all who honestly advocate such doctrines, that it is the almost unanimous opinion among national Greenbackers that the national Greenback conTention. to be held in Cincinnati, Sept. 12, confine its declarations of principles to the questions of restored fraternity and a spirit of tnie common nationality among tne entire people; opposition to the dangerous sectionalism ot a solid North and solid South; to payment of public debts according to original contracts under which they -were issued; to the money, land transportation, trust, board of trade gambling and making prices for American farm products, English control over the volume of our money. English manufacturing or handling products of American labor, and to 3uch other questions as allect the material interests and welfare of the American people and free government." The letter then says that trade and commerce is languishing for want of more money, and declares that the application of greenback principles would sitimnlate business and increase tho prosperity of the laboring classes, and of the merchant, and manufacturers. THE TENSION INQUIRY, If Any ITronjr Has Been Done the President Will Spare ISo One. WssMnfton Special to Philadelphia Inquirer (Hep.) Commissioner Black,' -while at the head of the Pension Office, drew not only his liberal salary as Commissioner, but $100 a month pension as "a total wreck." Despite the wreck racket, he fought valiantly for the Vice-presidential nomination until President Cleveland sat down upon his aspirations. Having spent all his money in this scheme, Black's admirers who had been running him got together and arranged to present him with a purse to pay his debts. This was to be done by a contribution of $5 per capita among tho employes. As they numbered about 1,500, a sum of at least -",-000 was expected, but the anti-ring clerks would not pony up. The project being ia danger of getting out. it was abandoned ia tho scope originally intended. Then are a number of persons in very branch of the service who are drawing two payments from tho government, and in proportion to their inllaeuce their rating is highest. The trouble with Commissioner Tanner has been, as far as the talk of the department goes, in surrendering to the unscrupulous clerks in his otce. Being a willing subject of their schemes, he nas gotten himself outside of the lines of the law in the premises. It is intimated that if the investigation should show anything wrong or irregular the President will spare no one. lie proroses to have a clean administration, no matter where it strikes. 1 he administration of pension all airs is destined to become an important matter of Congressional investigation that will bring it into party politics, and by the next national campaign it may be anticipated as a campaign issue, ine enormous sums paid for pensions to persons in every community who show no visible evidences of an inability to earn a living on account of wounds or disease contracted in tho war have already produced a considerable reflex ot puoiic opinion, even among itepnuucans. The wholesale measures likely to follow. which will keep on until bankruptcy over takes the natioral finances, will further stimulate- the movement to tlx a limit some where. There have been grave apprehensions in the minds of the Kepublican statesmen of Congres that the demagogy of the small fry politicians, in using the laudable ob jects of the pension law for selfish partisan purposes, will lead to serious consequences. It was admitted by Senator Allison, when last in Washington, that tho re-vatings, statutory increase and projected en largement oi tne scope of tno pension laws already threatened to consume the surplus, and might prevent a revision of the tarut for tho reduc tion of revenue on the line of protection. The prospect of tariff revision is as much for increasing the duties on some ar ticles, thus reducing revenue, as for lower ing where American competition c fiords sufficient protection. The Senator seemed fearful that these re-ra tings and other en largement of pension expenditures might necessitate an increase of revenue, which would necessitate laying new taxes to meet the expenses of the government on account of enormous pension expenses. Such a ne cessity, forced entirely by Republican legislation, would make the pension to soldiers a boomerang to slay the party by the yery measures pmoosed to maintain its support 11 " A. oy mo majority. A memoer of the administration inti mated that trie pension question was one which was having very serious consideration from the President, and the result of the preliminary investigation would un doubtedly lead to further inquiry. The development in the pension re-rating case of Senator Manderson, of Nebraska, which has been made a salient point in the nnftnincf tirnroilincrt rf f li a nAnairtn irnnl v -w aamm m v . V fc V W MA V f MtJI 'MM J V ... J , is likely to lead to some interesting details. It appears that the Senator in 1S05 was granted a pension of $15 a month for half disability. Since that time he has been examined several times, but no report has been made allowing an increased disability, despite reputed pains in his back ana lees. Last June, however, his case was called lor by Commissioner Tanner's private secretary, Squires, a member of the board of review, and by him was turned over to the medical referee and a few days after the Nebraska Senator, who is one of the most active members of tho upper branch of Congress, was granted a pension of $30 a month for life to date from discharge. which gave him arrearages aggregating $4,000. The whole transaction consumed just six days. The parties to this transac tion have been dismissed. A medical ex amination of the Senator will be ordered. and if his condition does not indicate total disability proceedings will bo instituted for a refunding of the money. MINOR MATTERS.

The one hundredth anniversary of the storming of the Bastile was celebrated by the socialistic and anarch istic societies of this city to-day. Although not so described upon the programme, it was practically a jubilee day for Chicago Anarchists. Mrs. Lucy E. Parsons made an incendiary speech that was vociferously applauded by hundreds of listeners. "The fall of the Bastile," she said, "was a victory for free government, a hlow to tyranny; but it did not destroy economic slavery. We have a free government; they have a free government in France; yet we are slaves. There must be another revolntion applause a revolntion against the 'bastiles' of labor. The people must rise and hear me. Thev will rise, and they will storm and capture those bastiles. and they will bear out the heads of those devils those capitalists on the tops of pikestatfs. (Applause. They presume to rule by the divine right of the rifle and tho Gatling gun, tho noose and tho prison, but they have no such divine rignt. x ou must seize tnose rines ana tnoso Gatling guns, destroy the gallows and storm the prisons. You mnst march, arm in arm. and shoulder to shoulder against these 'bastiles' of labor. You must not march in tho street to be mowed down, but you must get within the walls, and victory, sweet victory, is yours. S'They say that we must not say such ings. Are the men at Washington, who say there is & storm coming, to blame for the damage done by that stormT If I say there is another revolution coming, am I to blame if it does come! Are you cowards, men, to stand still and tamely submit to such tyranny T Do you not know that there are six thousand in Chicago to-day depend ent on charityf Do you not know tnat there are women in this very city who will to-night have to barter holy love for a crust of bread to eat? I say there will be a revolution. I say you men are brave enough to rise and put down the tyrants. lnere will be slaves in tne bastile of labor no longer; you will do with tyrants and put out the bosses. "The revolution comes, the red flag waves, tne oastue falls; tne common people are triumphant, and history repeats it self.77 Tho crowd cheered itself hoarse when Mrs. Parsons ended with these words, and continued cheering until the Marseillaise was commenced by the band. Paul Grottkau spoke in German. He said that men by the very power of wealth -ruled the common people as they were never ruled bv men wearinc the roval nurnle: he said that another revolution was surely coming, and that Chicago could not stop it with hangings, or the police of the world with Gatling guns, lyrants would be again overthrown, and the common people would again be triumpnant. ine story of tne French revolution would be repeated throughout the world.

Alaska is a great pipe, and Sitka, the seat of government, is situated about the center of the stem. Of the vast interior little is known, but the 6teui, extending southward along the coast is little more than a mass of islands, rocky and barren, except for a dense growth of cedars. It is impossible in all that great country for a person to secure title to an acre of land or a stick of timber. It all belongs exclusively to the government. Of course., in due time that will be rectified, as it should be right away. 'Alaska's mineral resources are imnienso and 1 have no doubt will in tho future ho extensively developed.

Divers Hunting for a Schooner's "Wreck Find a Rich Prize of rig-Tin. Philadelphia Record. The wreck of the English bark Midway, which foundered in 1K3 while bound from London to Philadelphia withacareoof tin. lead and spelter worth over 150,000, has been located by the Atlantic and Gulf Wrecking Company off Cape HenlopenYesterday the schooner J. Howard Mageo lauded at the Almond-street wharf a consignment of various metals from the Midway's cargo.' which had been brought to tho surface by divers, and although corroded by the action of salt water the entire consignment was sold at tho highest market rates. The discovery of the sunken wreck and her valuable cargo was made accidentally two weeks ago by divers of tho wrecking company, who at onco informed the superintendent of their rich find, ffhe diver were searching for the wreck of a schooner recently lost on the Hen and Chickein shoals, which aro a few miles south of Cap Heulopen. While on the bottom looking: for tho schooner the divers saw glitterintf heaps of metal, that looked like ereat bare of silver. They were, in fact, the pigs of tin forming part of the cargo of the lotijj lost Midway. These pigs of tin, owiug to &, peculiar condition of the metal, were af bright as they were on tho day tho bark went down. . The wrecking rnnm.mv at once decided td abandon its search lor the sunken schooner and look out for tbe more valuable prize, which its men had so quecrlyt 'tumbled npon. A little research convinced them that tho tin was part of the cargo of tho Midway. , . . . After full preparations had been mnd6 the work of getting out the cargo was begun, and that portion of it brought to thu city yesterday by the schooner Magee il the first installment, which will be followed by others until oil has been recovered. Onlv about 100 tons were in the tirst. consignment, but there aro hundreds of tons left, worth a large fortune, probably SirAOoO, which will be recovered. The Midway's cargo was consigned to l'euroso&'Uurton, old-time Philadelphia nhip brokers, who are long since dead, and havi passed out of public view. In the cabin of the bark was found a case of brandy, much improved by its confinement in the lost skipper's cabin.
