FARMERS PASS RESOLUTIONS.

Delegate* Disagree a*. to the Coat of Raising an Acre of Corn. The farmers’ national congress in session at Colorado Springs refused to pass a resolution asking Congress to compel sleeping car companies to reduce their rates. J Other resolutions were turned down, as follows: Favoring the storage of flood waters and constructing of canals by Government aid. Asking Congress to pass a bill to compel manufacturers of farm mujliinery to make -ati<r~pTac& oh sale interchangeable parts. Other resolutions read and passed were traToltowgt ~ Favoring appropriations to complete the work alceady-begun ou river and barbor improvements. Favoring the building of an intcroceanie canal in Nicaragua. Favoring the extension of rural’ mai* free delivery. . Protesting against the leasing of the public domain for grazing purposes. Recommending the distribution of feeds through experiment stations only. Favoring public ownership of water courses for irrigation purposes and favoring government investigation of irrigation. The subject which seemed to most engross the attention of the congress is the merchant marine. The resolutions committee had several memorials on this matter, which were referred to a subcommittee. A feature of the. discussion at one of the sessions was the wide difference in statements of farmers as to the cost of producing a bushel of corn. W. G. Whitmore of Nebraska said the average cost was between 20 and 25 cents, while E. Filley of the same State claimed that he was producing an acre of corn for 20 cents.

CENSUS OF CHICAGO.

Show* Greater Growth in Population than Other Cities. Chicago is still in all likelihood the second city in population in the United States. The figures of the census bureau, announced Monday, giving tht city a total of 1,098,575, while disappointing to those Avlia. pinned -their faith in the correctness of the postoflice, directory, and school census counts, show that Chicago is still increasing in population at a mar velotts rate. In the percentage column New York’s increase of 35.33 per cent was dwarfed by Chicago's showing 54.44 increase over the figures of 1890. Those who were missed by the enumerators, if there were any, will have to wait until next time to be counted. Next time will be in 1910. Following is a table showing the increases in various cities, the population of which has been announced by the census bureau: Increase PerPopu- over eentlatlon. 1890. uzr.

KANSAS’ GREAT WHEAT CROP.

It Mean* a Shower of *60,01)0,000 to the Farmers. Jhe Kansas farmer has begun to turn his grain into dollars. The movement of the greatest wheat crop ever raised in the Southwest is under way. Elevators are kept busy receiving the wheat and pouring it into cars, to he whirled away to the great markets. But the movement te not yet well under way. Many fanners are holding grain for higher prices. Others, canpot secure threshers immediately, although thousands of them Were purchased this season. It is estimated that this year’s wheat crop will require 100,000 cars. Should any considerable portion of this crop be thrown on the market now the railroads would be swamped, nicy are now running night and day shifts in the work of car building nnd repairing. The wheat crop of Salina County alone atootmts to 3.000.000 bushels, worth $2,000,000. Eight hundred bushels is counted as a carload. Fifteen counties in the wheat belt harvested nn average of 3,000,000 bushels each. So the sale of this one product will bring to each of them $2,000,000 in cash. A Hartford, Conn., dog broke into the poultry yard in the suburbs of that city n few nights ago nnd killed 100 chickens. He picked out for his victims n lot of fancy poultry, the owner of which hnd reserved them as fancy specimens of his different breeds for exhibition purpostw during the coming fall.

COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL

New York—There has been very little actual change in the situation during the last week. Prices are still somewhat irregular, for the reason that in certain lines, notably in iron and steel, readjustments are still in order. The'belief prevails— however,- thnt vahies —generallyhave touched the lowest marks for some time to come. Railroads th rough out_the country continue to make an excellent showing'in the matter of earnings. This is particularly true of the Western lines. The bank clearings also indicate that the volume of general business is being well maintained. So far as the stock market is concerned, it seems to be the consensus of opinion that securities will ultimately reach a higher level of prices. As a rule, even tire bears concede that as to the immediate future opinions are not quite so unanimous. The market is evidently under control of the large interests. and yet in view of the crop uncertainties and the political campaign, it is perhaps not considered good judgment to start a sustained upward movement at this time. Chicago—The wheat market evinced considerable strength last week, the firmness being for the good and sufficient reason that in the markets of the importing countries American wheat was underselling the product of its competitors. Proof of this was the heavy purchases made here for foreign account. Besides the foreign demand as an aid to the market the unfavorable weather was a drawback for securing the remains of the drought-strickmi spring wheat crop of North Dakota and nortliern Minnesota. Tlie rain that was withheld during the period of the plant’s growth, when moisture was of vital importance, lias recently been pouring in floods, just at the time when dry weather was urgently needed for the in-gathering of what the previous drought had left.. Morq than the usual ill effect of a wet harvest has been experienced because of the necessity of using mowers and headers in cutting the grain this season on account of the shortness of the straw. The heads of the grain thus cut. gathered into heaps in the lieldSi-liave been subjected to the most injurious effects of incessant rain, accompanied by a high degree of temperature. the result of which, according to numerous well authenticated from the suffering territory, has been the rendering unfit for milling purposes of a large portion of the wheat which had been saved from the drought. The full effect of the last-named addition to the original calamity in the Northwest has not yet been experienced in the market. The rain that has been playing havoc with spring wheat came in the nick of time to benefit corn, the price of which failed to maintain to the end the buoyancy that marked the trade early in the week while the bad effects of continuous drought were still being feared.

TWO DEAD, FOUR HURT.

Result of Attempt to Arrest Female Doctor at Gilman, 111. Two men dead, two fatally wounded and one man and a woman seriously injured is the result of an all-night fight made by a constable and deputies in attempting to arrest Dr. Mrs. Charlotte Wright, who conducts a hospital in Gilman, 111. The trouble was precipitated by the investigation of the coroner’s jury into the death of Dessie Salter,-16 years old, of Leonard, 111., who died in the hospital and was taken to her home in Leonard under cover of darkness. After the jury had heard the evidence of Clarence Salter, father of the girl, a warrant was sworn out by Police Magistrate W. T. Irelan for Mrs. Wright’s arrest, and Constable Milstead, accompanied by half a dozen deputies, with a mob of a hundred citizens at their heels, went to the house to serve it. The house was silent and dark. When the constable had demanded entrance the third time the door was kicked in, nml the first man to enter was Deputy Mike Ryan. He received a load of buckshot in his abdomen and died in twenty minutes. The house was burned and it was supposed that the inmates were dead, when all at once some one Cred from the bushes in the yard nt the sentries posted around the burning building. aud two men were carried off mortally wounded. They were George Willoughby ami Pete Hauer. The shots were fired by John Meyers, n man who had been living with Mrs. Wright since her husband died seven years ago. Meyers was riddled with bullets. Mrs. Wright was found wounded in the arm and lying on a brush heap in the shadow of some bushes. She was taken to the City Hall and a strong guard placed over her. Threats of lynching were strong.

Maud Muller. Maude Muller on a summer’s day Raked the meadows fresh with bay, And the bumble bee and garter, snake She also raked with her little fake. And the wind that blew that summer’s day Brought out Maude’s freckles in a frightful way, And her neck was roasted and her face was baked, But still she raked, and raked, and raked. It seems that her pap was away that day To some pol itical fol-de-ray; And her mother, too, was a delegate To a hen convention out of the State; " And the hired man in his hand-tne-do’d'n Was attending a caucus that day in town. So Maude was left alone that day To do the chores and rake the hay. And she pitched right in her level best, And only took an occasional rest; Then she’d spit on her hands once more and take A better hold on her little rake. But as she wrestled the new mown grass These words from her lips did sadly pass: “Of all sad words of tongue or pen, The saddest are these, ‘they’ve gone again’; "They’re away attending other folks’ affairs, And have left me here to manage theirs.” —lndianapolis I’ress.
