Special to the Sentinel. Chicago, May 23. The bull clique on 'Change have clearly demonstrated that they Lave the wheat deal in fall control, and thty posses abundant funds to maintain their posiiion. Encouraged by fayorable crops news, and by reports that the granger railroads had contracted to bring in a million bushels of wheat per day from the 'Northwest, the bears made a rattling; drive at the deal. They Bold furiously and lightened a host of 'tailer3" into unloading. This was followed up by free and apparently concerted calls upon clique houses for ma: gins op to the 10 per cent, limit, tbe soalled clique bank, (the American Exchange), being barred ai a depository for the funds. The flood of grain dumped on the market carried prices down several points, bat it was soon apparent that the raid had been a failure. The clique Louses responded cheerfully with margins and called back the full 10 per cent., making no stipulations es to where the m iney should or should no', be deposited. Thus Bchwarts fc Dupte called $3,000 from Itosenfield & Co , und were immediately called back $50,000. This showed that there was no lack of money in the clique earn p. and C. J. Kershaw, their leading broker, openly gave out that all their financial arrangements had been completed this month, while gossip had it that $2 000,000 in currency had been received from Cincinnati. This increased the crowd's respect for the manipulators amazinglf, and when they begaa bidding for grain the "ehorta" had to climb. Prices wentnp much f&ster than they declined, and touched th highest point reached in xnariT months. It is no longer "Can the clique handle this deal?" but "when" and "how" will it be done. Shipments from Minneapolis have panned out disappointingly small, and the threats ot the bears to bring la a flood of wheat from that direction now looks like a big blu3. Europe's eurplusage is light, and she baa no market Of magnitude to draw upan except America. New York advices tell of an -enormous export business, and the fact lhat clearances are small la charged to the Scarcity of ocean freight room. Surrounding markets display a decided tendency to work up to the Chicago standard, and the legitimate situation is all that the trade can desire. The continent is still an anxious buyer, and as soon as the light stocks of winter wheat are absorbed work upon stores of soft spring must commence. The "short" interest in both June and July is very heavy, and many "bears" are trying to make private Settlements with the "combine." Trade in corn is dull and slow. The fine weather and liberal receipts continue and there is a good deal of selling by "the eonntrj " against cribbed corn. Still thera are numerous scalpers who think this a pood time to buy in a Bmall way, and prices are held about steady. Provisions are pretty near featureless. Xocal cs well as outside traders adhere too closely to their old conservative policy to Inf ut-e any life into the trade. Receipts of bogs are liberal. foreign Flashes. The Duke or Mecklenberg-Schweirin is dangerously ilL Many bombs and other explosives have been seized in the houses of strikers in the Jleuse Valley, Belgium. Duke Paul, of ifeeklenberg-Strelitz, husband of Princess Windeschgratz, is dangerously ill from typhus fever. The total number of lives lost by the explosion at the Glasgow, Ssotland, colliery, jesttrday, is belitvfcd to bs seventy-five. The Dalian Chamber cf Deputies yesterday J eased a hill to increase U; srmy, entailing an additional charge cf $2,200,000. Official statistics show that 49,231 persons left Alsace-Lorraine between the years 1SB0 and 18S3, while during the same period there was a German Influx of 36,503. It was officially annonnced yesterday afternoon that seventy-live corpses had so far been recovered from the ruins of the Opera Comique. It is expected that one hundred will be found. Twelve English people lost their lives by the burning of the Opera Comique at Paris. The funeral of the theater employes, which will be held in the Church of the Madeleine, will be an Imposing affair. Herr Krupp has finished s forty centimetre gsn, the biggest ever made atEea.

Tbe adoption of a common legislation ior the German colonies is being contemplated, and the Governors of the various dependencies will meet In Berlin soon to exchange views on the subject based on their own experience. The Republican groHps of the French Chamber of Deputies have held meetings and ncanimocsly approved their President's action in using their influence with President Grevy against the retention ot General Boulauger in the Cabinet.

FARMERS' REVIEW SUMMARY.

Condition of th tioi Throughout the Western and Northwestern states. CniCAGO, May 29. The following crop summary will appear in this week's issue of ihe Farmers' Review: Oar reports this wk indicate that local rains throughout the "Western States have more or leas brokf n up the drought An improved condition of affairs in relation to the winter wheat crop ia noticeable in Indiana and Ohio, and while other States have suffered from lack of rain, it seems probable that should the present condition Continus the damage will be less tban was anticipated. More rain is generally needed except in the Southern States. Twenty-three counties in Illinois this week report the average condition of winter wheat at S3 percent. Cumberland, LiBalle, Marshall, Moultrie, Scott, Douglass and Johnson counties repart the condition of their crop at 100 percent. Injuries from chinch bugs are reported by Edwards, Oly, Fayette, Franklin, Lawrence, Mas3ac, Monroe and Johnson counties, while the Hessian fly is working in White County. Ten counties report a lack of rain, while eight others have a sufficient moisture, and nine are not sufiermg. Fourteen Indiana counties report an average condition in winter wheat of 87 per cent. The average reaches 100 in Madison, Miami. Monroe, Hush and Spencer counties. The weather on a whole in Indiana is now favorable to the winter wheat crop. Eleven Ohio counties report an average condition above that of last week. Local rains have fallen in many districts of the State and prospects tor a crop are much ftter. Tbe condition of winter wheat is placed at S3 per cent, in eeven Michiean counties reporting. The average reaches 100 per cent, in Grand Traverse and Shiawassee counties and ranges from 75 to 95 in others reporting. Eain ia still needed in Grand Traverse, Lenawee and Van Buren counties. The counties reporting from Wisconsin this week give the condition of winter wheat at 75 per cent. The percentage of the condition of the crop la Fou du Lac County is placed at 100, in Marquette at 90 and in Chippewa at 50, the latter county having suflered from drought.

The condition in Mercer County is placed as high as 120 per cent, in Livingston at 110, and in Barry, Benton, Montgomery and Newton counties at 100 per cent. Injury to the crop from am y worms is reported in New Madrid and Cape Girardeau counties. The Kentucky counti reporting this week place the condition of winter wheat at an average of from 75 to 100 per cent. Ten counties in Kansas report the condition cf winter wheat at C3 per cent, of an average. Complaints are numerous of drought and bo9. Hail killed most of tbe crop in Clay County on May 22. The condition of spring whea't in Minnesota is placed by four counties at 53 per cent, of an average, while four others report the condition as good, blx counties report a leek of rain, while tbe others reporting are well or fairly supplied. Iowa promises to have a good crop of spring wheat. Nine counties report the condition of the crop at an average of 01 per cent. Local rains have fallen, but much more is needed. Seven Nebraska counties rsport the condition of spring wheat in that State at an average of 91 per cent. Local rains have fallen, but more is needed. Meadows and pastures throughout the country are in good condition where local rains have occurred, bat the majority have been Ehortened by drought. OSCILLATIONS OF THE EARTH. The City of Mexico Visited By Several Sharp Shocks. City or Mexico, May 20. At 2:50 fciis morning there -vas felt here a violent shock of earthquake, or sort of lifting motion, which lasted five seconds. Next there came, prefaced by a low roar and accompanied by a stiff breeze, a violent oscillation of the earth from east to west, which awoke nearly every one, lasting as it did thirty-nine seconds. Houses Bwayed as if they were ships at sea, and persons arising from their beds were in many cases thrown with force to the floor. Balls were rung in the hotels, and everywhere doors were forced open. Then came still another oscillation of much violence, proceeding from north to south. During this shock crockery was thrown down and pictures demolished in several houses. Thousands of persons dressed, and did not go to bed again. Reports to-day, received by Governor Ceballes, of Federal District, do not show any fatalities as the result of the earthquake, and the denizens of suburban towns report about the same sensations as were felt by the inhabitants of the metropolis. At the School of Mines, Secretary Ugaide reports that the saifmatic Instruments showed a heavy shock had taken place. These instruments are self-registering, and prove that the shock of this morning was a severe one. At the office of Governor Ceballes, it is reported that the shock was much more severe than that of 1832. The Government is taking measures to ascertain just how widespread the earthquake was. THEY ARE SHOWN NO MERCY Five Store of the Missouri Ilald Kaobbers Convicted. Ozaek, Mo., May 20. The Bald Knobbers who took a change of venue from Ozark to Porter Township, on account of the alleged prejudice against the regulators here, found none of the hoped-for mercy in Squire West's court Yoke Griffin, James Walker, Jeff Lee and Levi and William Swearengen were convicted on the charge of whipping George W. 8wearengen on the night of the 2Gth of last July, the jury declaring each of the Knobbers should atone for this regulation assault by paying a fine of $100 and serving three months in the county jail. The conviction of Levi Swearengen was a surprise to everybody except the jury, as the evidence developed but one remote circumstance that in any way implicated him in the raid. The wife of one of the whipped men swore that the masked band left her house about daylight, going in the direction of Mr, Swearengen's, and in a few minutes she heard Levi's dogs bark and his jack bray, the inference being that these vigilant night-watchers of the household and barn-yard were greeting their master's return home from the Bald Knobbers raid. Dead Miners. Glasgow, May 29. Forty bodies have been recovered from the Udston coal pit at Blantur. Many of the corpses are unrecognizable, limbs having been blown off and the bodies being horribly charred. Queen Victoria has sent a dispatch expressing sympathy with tbe families of the dead miners. Distressing scenes were witnessed at the pit as the bodies were brought up. There is no hope that the others in the mine can be saved. Only a Child Killed. Feextobt.IH., May 23. A terrific collision occurred at Savanna to-day. Two passenger trains on the Chicago, Burlington and Northern Road, one the St. Paul and the other the St. Louis train, collided, overturning several coaches loaded with passengers, and doing considerable damage to tbe locomotive and forward coaches. Luckily there was only a child inj ared. - A Ghastly rind. Pa eis, Texas, May 23. Intelligence reached here to-day to tbe effect that tbe body of Sberifl Grayson Jacobs, of Lawsoa County, Choctaw Nation, who had been missing for several days, was found by the aid of buzzards, who were devouring the corpse, About tin; 9 tailed yard boa

where the Sheriff's body was found lay the bodice of two nfgroes, which had been partly devoured by buzzards. The discovery causes great excitement. The Sheriffs ritath is a profound mystery. There is no clew to the tragedy beyond the fact that two desperadoes Choctaw Indians are missing, and they are being sought after. AT PROSPECT HOUSE.

Tbe President's First Fie Mug Excursion a Dismal Failure. Fkoetect House, N. Y., May 29. The President on Saturday had a day of most dieical weather, lie made his first fishing excursion, but his usual good luck did not attend him. He came over from his cabin soon after 3 o'clock in tbe morning, with Mrs, Cleveland, each wearing a suit of corduroy. The President's short sack coat over a gray flannel shirt gave him a very sportsmanlike appearance. Mrs. Cleveland's costume was a close-fitting one, very becoming, and complete with a sailor hat. Colonel and Mrs. Lamont joined the President and his wife at breakfast, which was eaten in the public dining-room at ths Saranac Inn. At 11 o'clock Dave Cronk, the guide, got out the President's new forty-five pound pine boat, built by him for the President's use, and, with the President, went off down tbe lake. Colonel Lamont also accompanied them, and another guide followed them in another boat. Both boats returned three hours later. The President and his secretary found the wind unfavorable, and did not try very hard to catch anything. At all events, they did not get any fish. Another trip on the lake was made in the afternoon, with no better results. There was a brilliant Bunset, with prospects of fine weather Sunday and the fine weather came, according to pro miss, the sun rising in a sky obscured only by fleecy clouds that rested just at the tops of the most distant mountain peaks. There were few early rif ers at the S irauaclnn. The President's party breakfasted at 10 o clock, the President and his secretary appearing in the camping costumes they wore Saturday. Mrs. Cleveland wore a tailor-made suit of b'ack and a cardinal felt hat, about which a quantity of white mulle was twisted. Mrs. La moat's dre S3 was a close fitting one of gray, and ehe wore a gray felt hat with a blue band. The President strolled about the hotel, chatting with the guests and resting quietly at his cottage until 2 o'clock, when he and his party joined the other guests in the eeneral dining-room. There were no excursions oi fishing expeditions to-day. The ladies went to the little chare), not far from the hotel, and in the absence of a clergyman, held a little singing service for an hour. The President expects to have some good sport to-morrow. "WE WANT THE EARTH." Regular Weekly Meeting of the Anti-Poverty Boclety In Ktw York City. New Yore, May 29. The Academy of Music was crowded again to-night, the occasion being the regular weekly meeting of the Anti-Poverty Society. James McMackin presided, and speeches were made by Dr. McGlyrn and Henry George. "We want the earth," said Dr. McGlynn. "We want tbe laud because we want the kingdom of Heaven, because he has given it to us. We want it not 60 much as a rig 4t, but as a duty, becaese he has laid it before us as a duty never to surrender it." Speaking of labor and its blessedness, he spoke of Christ as an humble labarer and his birth place was rot a marble palace. The object cf the new cru?ade was really to preserve the sacred rights of property, to tntorca the commandment "Thou Shalt not steal." Ii "If the men clad in purple and fine linen mhn sit in high places ia the synagogue and presume even to lock the fate of Heaven po oa as they are going, the day is not far distant when you will have to Cime to the theater to get your religion. It the son of man were to appear to day he would Dot be permitted to preach in any christian pulpit. His manner, hi attire his doctrines, would sem too strange to those who assume to represent him." A Death Sentence Commoted. Citt of Mexico, May 29. The Secretary of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Moriscal, has addressed a reply to tne request made by the United States Government that the death sentence pronounced against Colonel Arvisza and his companions on, account of the part they took in a recent violation of American territory at Nogales, be commuted. He states that the matter has been re i orted to the President, lie also states, by d:r ction of the President, that the huffiare sentiment of the United States officials are duly appreciated, and they will be borne Jn mind in case the sentence pronouDcrd against the Nogaleä oösnders should be confirmed. Fatally Stabbed. Dil Rio, Tex., May 29. The Mexican portion of this city was startled by cries of murder, and, as a citizen broke open the door of the room whence the calls came, the body of Felipa Garcia fell into his arms. The woman was stabbed three times with a large dagger, and any of the wounds would have proved fatal. She Uvea in the house with her husband, Juan Garcia, and an aged couple. The latter testified that in the night they were awakened by the scrfile and the sound of a man's voice swearing. Then they heard Felipa's cries. Since the killing Juan has disappeared. Rive the pieces! "10c ROYAL gluesceum Perished in the Flames. Mebbitt's Corners, N. Y., May 29. At 1 o'clock this morning one of Brown, Howar & Co.'s shanties at shaft No. 2, New Crotoa aqueduct, caught fire. About seventyfive men were sleeping in it at the time. All escaped except two, James Connolly and an unknown man, who were burned beyord recognition. Michael Baker escaped safely, but returned for his pocketbook, containing $80, and was burned so badly that he will probably die. James McGee was also badly burned.

QUACKS OF OLD. Surgeon General Hamilton Tells About home Notable Cases. IThe WashiH?ton Btar.l The charlatan lives for himself, said Dr. John B. Hamilton, Surgeon General of ths Marine Hospital Service, in his addresj U the graduates of the medical department of the University of Georgetown, at their commencement last Monday night. He affects to despise the labors of the past, although he daily makes use of their fruits. He arrogates to himself knowledge tupericrto everyone of his time, cd efpecial superiority over his associates; but he takes care never to add anything to tbe general stock of medical information, by divulging anycf the great secrets of which be alone ia the possessor. These characteristics have belonged to the charlatan in all ages, so far as cotercporary history has limned his portrait There is one difference between tbe ancient and modern charlatan, and that is, that owing to the existing state ot science and the many morbid processes unknown generally, the ancient queck was frequently able to stumble on some physiological fact or especial line of treatment, Asclepiades, who flourished in the first century of the Christian era, may be taken as a primal type of the charlatan. He treated the writings of the paat with contempt; Hippocrates' system of medicine was nickDensed a "study of death." He rejected publicly the various classes of medicines that bad vome down to bim from the past ages, but he handed down his name to posterity by applying the atomic theory tnen prevailing in physics to medicine, and he founded a medical Bchool. Astrology , tbeotophy and uranoecopy were later vari ations, end it is not a little curious that we 8 ill tee advertisements announcing that fuch-cnd-EUch a person casts nativities and t-nis cases by the aid cf the stars. Uranoscopy seems to have been a survival of the ancient pagant custom of divination from inspections of the tissues of freshly killed animals, for as that custom finally was overthrown by the increase of knowledge, it was deemed necessary to come somewhere near the human body in ascertaining its condition. During the reign of Justinian indignities were everywhere heaped upon the followers of rational medicine. The medical school at Athens was destroyed, and throughout the Roman Empire legitimate medicine and the study of anatomy was suppressed so far as official orders could do it. Laying on of hand3, charms, relics and superstitions of all sorts, incantations and tbe like, were the means resorted to for the cure of disease and the prevention of epidemics. It was then that the Arabian schools sprung up through the influence of tbe Nettorians and legitimate medicine was transferred to the Arabs. It was the age of intolerence; the slightest differences between ChriEtians gave rise to internecine feuds and bloody wars, and when Pome waa overrun by the barbarians nearly every vestige cf xnedica'. learning bas-edupon anatomy was exiin guished in Europe. Tbe ecclesiastics ,hen took up the Btudy in secret, and nearly 1.000 years elapsed befo e the truths of medical science were egain brought forward. Tbe Arch quack Paracelsus did the world tome service hy reviving interest in chemistry and overthrowing alchemy. His generl ttyle has seldom ren improved upon ven by the most modern quacks, with all the aid that tho age of leaders can give tbem. His real name was Hohenheim, asd he was born in Zarich, but as soon ts he had imbibed a smattering of the effect of chemicals on the human body he imagined Lim3df the wisest of mankind and gave himself the name, by which he has since been known, of Paracelsus, or Phillipus Aureolus TheopLratus Bombsstns Paracelsrs. He was, tbe speaker said, a drunken srinnndrel, but then, as now, there were hundreds of men who viewed this habit as an undoubted e?Idence of pen ins of the highest order. He claimed that reading never made a physician that "countries are the leaves upon which nature's laws are written, and patients are my only books." It should be remembered to the credit of t'aracelsus that at this time the general habit of the medicasters of the day was to put a very little medical truth in a vast deal of astrology and E0-called climatology, by which each hour was assigned a particular force on each organ of the body, according to the decision of the horoscope. Among the Chinese at this period, and perhaps long previously, this belief was universal. The bign most important to observe was tne position of the moon. When that romantic satellite was found in the sign of the Caneer, then was the time to give medicines with the greatest effect, and her conjunction with Saturn absolutely forbade the use of medicines by rendering them nugatoiy, especially puree tives. Theosophy, with its mind cures and the mystic rites of the Rosicrucians, teems almost to reach the extreme limit of absurdity. This singular sect was instituteu by Father Rosenkreutz, in Germany, early in tbe fourteenth century. The exact date is unknown, and, although their existence was known at the time, they seem to have well preserved their eecreta. They, however, became almost extinct until tbe year 1C15, when the society was revived, and printing being general, their secrets were no longer kept. The neophytes srre fidelity, promised absolute secitcy aud sncre in hieroglyphics. The sect believed that the secret philosophy of the Egyptians, the magi of IVrsia, gymnofopbists and Brahmins of Idia, and all ancient oiiential lore, were embodied in their teaching. They also claimed, in imitation cf the Masonic fraternity, that much of their information was handed down by King Solomon to King Hiram at the construction of the temple. It is probable that many golden grain of truth were contained in the doctrines of orientalism, but these were for the most part the sheerest nonesense. It is one of the duties ot the medical profession to set their faces against these superstitions and denounce them. Tt is somewhat singular. Dr. Hamilton said, that the art or war the science of destroying mankind ha been preservative of legitimate medicine. Each cornmender, while anxious to destroy his enemy, is quite as anxlouf. to preserve the vigor cf Lis own force; consequently we find that armies have early made efforts to eleminate the charlatans from their medical Btff. Tbe pages of history glow with accounts of the exploits of particular charlatans, but singularly enough, although a large proportion of the human family seem to love dearly to be bumbuge i, they seldom like to mention ic after they have experienced the consequences of their folly. One of the most noted quacks of the last century was a certain Dr. Graham, who was a graduate of Edinburgh, and settled in London in 1782. Practice opened very slowly tor the Doctor, and he established himself in a Pall Mall mansion, which he named the "Temple of Health." He covered the front of the building with emblems of hygeia and an enormous gilt sun. The interior rooms were superbly furnished ; the walls were covered with mirrors, candelabra, with gilded and tinsel mountings; birds sang in unexpected corners, rare plants lent their fragrance to the air, and the enchanted palaces of the Bast were sought to be reproduced Here this interesting person delivered lectures on health at the rather CTtravagant price at 2 guineas each; this price, together with the novelty of his subject and the elegance of hia apartments, drew together large audiencps of the wealthy and dissipated class, lie entertained a female of beautiful figure, whom he called the goddess of health ; and it was her business to deliver a concluding discourse. as a further means of attraction Dr. Graham hired two giants provided with enoriuons cocked hats, and with showy and bulky liveries, whose business it was to distribute bills from house to house. But his 2-gulnea auditors became exhausted, ana he dropped the price of his

lecture to 1 guinea one-half guinea 5s and finally to half a crown, and when this failed he exhibited the temple itself. Tbis telentd individual also discovered an elixir of life, whereby a person taking it might live as long 83 bo pleased, and he demanded 1,000 for a supply of it, and mere than one Dobleman paid tbe price. Tbete barefaced swind.es after a time became known, and he had to resort to earth or mud bathing. Both he and the goddess allowed themselves to be exhibited while immerEed in earth to the chin. In tbe meantime, the ttpeaker continued, there had sprung up In America a new quackism. known as Thompsonianisai. Ifeis was the invention of an impecunious, uneducated, but probably honest, citizen of Western New York, named Samuel Thompson. He claimed to originate the theory of the elements of man; that he was composed of four elements earth, air, fire and water and that disease was aaimal heat confined! He published a work on medicine, and his followers were found everywhere. His book abounds in curiosities; for instance, his opening remark on carbuncles is unique, "Ihe carbuncle is a large bile ! and of f eruncles he said : "The bile Is a distressing visitor!" Thompson secured a patent on his system, and his followers paid for the right to use it in their own families. We have had other sets of indigenous pretenders, some of whom still live.
