FREE TRADE SENTIMENTS.

Interesting Iiousion of Economic Prin

ciples ."by Wheat Grower. The interstate Wheat Growers contin

ued in session at St. Louis Tbursdajr afternoon. Robert Lindblom, the Chicago

wheat speculator, made a speech, in which

he gave the speculator's side of the wheat

question. He said the monopolists had taught society a lesson which would, in time, make monopoly an impossibility. The lesson was co-operation. It was intended as a blessing to monopoly. It will end in being a blessing to humanity. He believed that at fairly high prices ' more grain could be sold than at low prices.

There was no foundation for the cry of

oyer production . in five years, whE e the production of wheat decreased )4 per cent, the price decreased .28. per cent. The speaker then went on to show that there had been no over-prouuotion in other countries. . The event of the session was the address of President Column from a free trade stand point. He denounced the way the far

mers are used by the present administra

tion and the protection policy, and said that the only way to protect their interest

was to adopt free trade. Ho assailed elevator combines, pools, commission men

and speculators as robbers of the farmers, and said that between these factions the farmer was crushed.

The free trade element then offered the

following resolutions, which were passed af ter a long debate :

Resolved, By the farmers of the States

lying in the Mississippi and Missouri Riv er. Valleys, and of the States of Oregon, Washington and California, in national

convention assembled, that .. we hereby memoralize our National Congress and

the President of the United States, and most seriously petition them to make such reciprocity treaties with those

foreign nations to whom we ship our sur-' plus farm products, as will cause such

foreign nations to remove the custums duties from our farm products shipped

abroad, thereby, causing us to receive a higher price for our foreign farm surplus, and thereby fixing a higher price upon all that we sell at home.

Resolved, That we ask that such steps

be taken by our National Congress as will destroy the present existing monopolies

and trusts and prevent the formation of

others.

Resolved, And to the end that we may

get our farming implements at a less price

that the present laws be repealed that

place a duty upon farming implements or the raw materials used in their manufac

ture.

Resolvedthat we are more deeply intei-

ested in the carrying out of the above resolutions than we; are in the success of any

political party.

A permanent organization, to be known

as the Interstate Wheat Growers' Association, was formed. Permanent officers

were then elected as follows: President,

Hon. Norman J. Colman, of Missouri, with the privilege of naming his own secretary. Executive Board-.-W. L. Scott and A. D. Noe, of Kentucky; N, J. Colman and U.

S. Hall, of Missouri; E. H. Murphy and

P. A! Odell, of Minnesota: D. B. Green

and J. S. McCaffrey, of Illinois; Calvin Cole and. George Gibson, of Oregon ; Wal

ter N. Allen and Governor Charles Robin

son, of Kansas; J. A. Coates and D. A. Eppeson, of Indiana; N. O. Walker, of

Tennessee, and H. W. Sargent, of Ohio.

Among other resolutions adopted was

one requesting Superintendent of Census

Porter to collect data to show in the next

census what percentage of the people in

this country occupy their own farms and homes and what percentage are tenants.

SMALLER STAMPS.

Postmaster-General Wanamaker has awarded the contract for furnishing postage stamps to the American Bank Note Company, of New York. The award was made for stamps of a reduced size, the new stamps being about one-eighth smaller than those in present use. The one-cent

camped. Their negotiations with the Sac stamps will continue to be printed in blue,

and Fox were not favorable . The Indians listened to the Commissioners' tempting offer in silence. There seems to be no. disposition among them to sell. The Indian Agent, the Post Trader and numerous Sioux men who have great influence over them have poisoned the Indians' minds. The Indians and the trader both treated the: Commissioners with scant courtesy. The coolness was so painfully apparent that the Commissioners cut their visit short and left for Kickapoo country: . At 2:30 Thursday morning three masked robbers gained entrance to the residence of Judge Henry S. Kelley, at St. Joseph Mo., and going to the bed room" where the Judge and his wife were sleeping one of the robbers covered them with his revolver while the others searched the, room for valuables and obtained $600 in jewels, gold watches and money. The robbers then searched the bed for valuables, and lastly took the rings from the fingers of Mrs. Kelley. . On the Judge's stating that he had no money concealed about the house he was struck oyer the head with a . revolver and threatened with death if he did not tell where the money was. The men remained -in the house about two hours and

left, after threatening instant death to their vtctims if they attempted to give an

alarm. When the alarm was given, a half hour afterward, the robbers had made their escape.

the two-cent stamps, now printed in green,

will be printed in bright carmine, and changes will be made in some of the other denominations.

The gas well at Somerset, suddenly ceased flowing Tuesday morning, leaving the inhabitants of the placo without fuel. It is supposed that an., accumulation of salt in the hole obstructs the flow. Another well will be drilled at once. The Central Gas Company, organized to

byville, were gran tea the right of way by the County Commissioners, but farmers

are objecting to the use of the highways.

and have caused the arrest of a number of the employes for trespass. . John J. Mauok and Reuben Glodfelter, the former a well-to-do farmer, and tho latter in his . employ, are under bonds at Corydon, charged with stealing fruit trees from a nursery. Clodfelter was detected while hauling the trees homo, and his con

fession implicated his employer.

Rev. M. Swadener, of the Marion Meth

A young Swede, unable to talk English,

was recently sent to tho Logansport Asy

Cnolera is fast making away with the

hogs of Steuben county, hundreds dying every day, many farmers losing their entire droves. The disease is spreading to

all parts of the county, and every effort to

check its progress has so far proved unavailing, and pork raisers are greatly dis

couraged. It is estimated that the loss

will be many thousands of dollars, and but

for the unprecedented apple crop and good

prices, it would leave the farmers in pretty bad shape. .......

The Local Butchers Association of Ft. Wayne is making a vigorous fight against Chicago dressed beef, and an attempt was made to secure the appointment of a meat inspector, his salary to be defrayed by the

association, and he to be instructed to ex

clude all low grade meat for sale. After a sharp debate tho City Council laid the ordinance on the table.. Meanwhile the Chicago men are getting ready for business

and upon refusal of tho local butchers to

patronize them, they will cut the wholesale price, and will also open retail shops. Three Deputy Sheriffs were sent to Marion Township, Boone county, Monday

evening, to arrest Geo. W. Wade on a

Grand Jury indictment, and the defendant

was found working in a ditch. When sum moned to surrender, he started to run, whereupon George Bufflnger, one of the deputies, warned him to halt, and then fired upon him with a shot gun loaded

with buck-shot, the charge striking Wade

in the left side, and inflicting a dangerous wound. His recovery is doubtful. It was

with difficulty that Wade's companions were prevented from mobbing Buffingerwho was brought to Lebanon by his fel

low-deputies.

A full meeting of the Indiana School Book Company was held at Indianapolis

Friday. Business was reviewed and pros -pects canvassed. It was determined to make Indianapolis headquarters not only

for distribution but for the preparation of the company's publications. It is also pro

posed to purchase a site, erect a fine build

ing, equip it with latest and best machinery, and publish text books not only for Indiana, but for many other States. It is expected to invest $300,000 in the plant, and a large number of men will be employed. The company, since Aug. 1, has supplied nearly 850,000 books to 9,420 school rooms, in 893 toxvnships, 213 towns and 58 cities. The company is highly elated with the success they have attained, and are confident for the future success of their project, and of the law under which they are acting. The Superintendent of the Reform School for Boys Tuesday made his semiannual report of the accounts due from the various counties of the State for onehalf the expenses of maintenance and instruction of the boys at the school. Tho estimated annual expense (per capita) of each boy is $130. Each county pays onehalf this amount. The amount due from counties for the past six months is 13,037.25. In that time there were eighty oue counties that had representatives in the school. The following counties were not

represented: Franklin, Orange, Starke, Jasper, Parke, Union, Marshall, Ripley, Newton, Ohio and Scott There were 504 boys reported as having been in the school during this period. The counties

having the largest population had the most boys. First in rank was Marion with 101; then came Vigo with 41; Docatur 22 and Allen 20. The mechanics' lien law, enacted by the last Legislature, failed to stand a test in the Marion Circuit Court.. In the suit of Francis et al. against Langsdale ot al., Judge Taylor sustains a demurrer made to the complaint by tho defendants, on the ground that the new law attempts to ac complish one thing, while in reality it accomplishes another. By Section 8, of the acts of 1 $88, to enable mechanic, perform-

the owner that he was n'erformihg the

worit for the contractor; failing to give aucli notice he cbuld acquire no lien Updu the property by any proceeding. By Section 9 of tho act lie lioiild hold Hie owner iVersouaily liable by giving the notice provided, sotting forth the ainoiin.t of His claims and the scryicQs rendered . However, that personal liability notice was different from the uot-ce pi'ovided in Seotiou 5, and does not discharge tho lieu when it is attached, unless tho personal liability amount is equal to tbe amount of the lien. Sections 1, 0, 3 and 4 of tho acts of 1S83 aro amended by Sections 1, 3. 3 and 4 of the act of 1SS9, and by Section 5 of the act of 1SS0, Section 4 of 1853 is repealed, ti wad tab intention of the Legislature to repeal Section 5 of the act of 1SS3, and that section was named in tho title of the act, but in the body of the act Section 4 is named, and Judge Taylor holds that that is the one re pealed. Under tho ruling, mechanics' liens can only bo inforcod whoro tho provisions of Section 5 of the act of 1883, as mentioned above, are complied with. The ruling is one oi importance to mechanics and contractors. The cait paign of 1890 is about to begin, and both the leading parties are preparing for tho con tost. The Republican State Central Committee has already established headquarters at the New-Denison hotel, Indianapolis, and the first gun of Chairman Michenor was fli'ed, Thursday, in the issuing of a circular 'calliug on .the Republicans throughout the State uto organize for they owe it 'to themselves to soe that the Republicans cany the State. Tho new County Committees will bo selected in December or January, and tho work of choosing these men is of great importance. In April of next year your township ofilcers will bo chosen. It is true that the township officers wield a very great political influence, therefore it is important that the right men shall bo nominated and elected . If Ave can succeed in electing a larger number than usual of township officers next spring it will give great encouragement to our party and discourage the enemy." The Republicans aro urged to take great care in nominating men for the Legislature, as "it is of the highest importance to our party that we carry the Legislature." The committee has determined to begin the circulation of newspapers on a large scale at onoo, and has sent out blanks on which are spaces for the name and postofflce address of any weak-kneed brother who might bo benefited by reading a good Republican paper. On each blank is room for twenty-five names and a space wherein the political pedigree of the proposed subscriber can be briefly outlined. Document blanks aro also sent out. The committee has laid out a great deal of work for itself, and proposes an aggressive campaign. Democratic headquarters will be established in a few days. The preliminary work has begun, and a poll of the State will be taken in January or February, and each county organization will be supplied with a copy of the poll. Considerable attention is being given by party leaders to the organization of tariff reform leagues, and this part of the political work will be pushed with great vigor from now on.

The particulars of a singular duel recently fought in Taos county, New Mexico, have just come to light. Ah Indian and Juan Verega, a wealthy Mexican cattleman, repaired to a spot about six miles from the town of Taos, just at the break of day, to "settle an old grudge. The weapons were butcher knives, and, by the method of fighting agreed upon, each man was to submit his hand to his opponent and have one finger cut off, the cutting to be done alternately, and the man who first evinced signs of pain to be stabbed to the heart. Tho Indian, by toss, secured the first cut, and, deliberately taking the hand of his enemy, with a quick stroke, severed his foroftuger. The Mexican never uttered a sound. The Indian reached out his hand, and off came his thumb. . This continued in silence until the cattleman had lost four fingers and the Indian four also. When the Indian reached for his foe's left hand, thelatter's second, becoming scared at the fearful flow of blood, sent a bullet through the Indian's heart. The affair is one of the most inhuman ever heard of in any land, and all parties to it will be prosecuted. It is thought the cattleman will die.

A jury was secured and the Dr. Cronin trial begun at Chicago, Thursday, before a great crowd. State's. Attorney Longenecker at once began his opening address to the jury. , Ho reviewed briefly the long continued sifting of veniremen, defined the duties of jurymen,defined the meaning of a presumption of innoceuco as applied in the trial of persons charged with crime, tolling the jury that a presumption of innocence was not a matter to weighed against evidence. The motive for the crime, as the counsel said, was clearly enough to prevent an exposure of the einbozzloment of the funds for the relief of Ireland. Tho State's Attorney reviewed the on tiro plot and the story of the murdor'as he would bo able to prove it. . Counsel spoke at length and in detail of the conspiracy and tho causes leading to its consummation. The State's Attorney spoke of the adoption of the triangle as the symbol of the Executive Board. The membership did not know who constituted the triangle, so secret was it, but,nevertholcss, they obeyed its orders and were sent on various special missions in England in the way of active work and under assumed names. Noth withstanding this secrecy, these men were betrayed by the board to the English authorities and twenty of them, he said, aro now in prison,

CONTROL OF ELECTIONS. !tfr Honk's Flan for Bringing Congresritttial Ktcelicfiii tuticr l?dni Supervision. Representative ilbuic, of Tennessee, is the first kepublican in the Fifty-first Congress to como to the front with a proposed bill placing tho control of elections where Representatives to Congress are chosen in tbo hands ot the federal government. This subject will undoubtedly create a great deal of agitation in Congress at the approaching session, and bring about the

liveliest debates of any o:' tho subjects which will bo discussed. Judge Houk, bo ing the oldest Republican member fiom tho South, is prominertly mentioned for tee, .Chairman ship of the cohimitteo on elections. His bill provides that the President shall appoint three qualified voters in ouch congressional district, lo be known lis the electoral board of the district, upon tho petition of not loss than oue hundred qualified voters, certified by the clerk .of tho United States District Court, in whAoh it is- alleged that the petitioners do not believe a fair regis tratlon and election, or either of them, can be hela in that district understate supervision. The board will appoint registrars for each precinct , to serve six years. Tho board shall have absolute aontrol over tho appointment of i egistrars,and may remove them at will for failure to discharge their duties faithfully. Tho electoral board may, instead of dividing tho election district, provide two places for voting adjacent to each other, with two ballot-boxes, and appoint two sets of judges and clerks to receive and count the votes. The board is given instructions in the bill as to supervision, under clerks and judges for tho easting anil coll ating of votes, preventing intimidatlou and fraud, and in short, triving general supervision for a f ree ballot and a fair count. There is a provision for

the canvass and recanvass of tho returns and the ballots cast. The Attorney-general of the United States- is instructed to prepare suitable books and blanks for the election ofilcers. Tho bill is very lengthy, and gives specific instruc tions as to registrations and conduct of elections, aud the returning of the result, so that there can oe no such question as conflict of State and federal authority. THEY ATE HUMAN FLESH. Cannibal lexn Tim citaet! By. Ship-Wrecked MeiiTIio Terrible Story Tola by the Survivo a of JL'row of the lst Steamer Earnmoor. Carl Graves, fireman, and Ludwig Lodor, seaman, the two survivors of tho crew of tho steamship Earnmcor, told Thursday night a story at Baltimore, horrible in its details, of tho way they sustained life by cannibalism for days. Loder said: "The only food we had the first fifteeu days in the boat was a flying fish and a few raw small sea birds, divided among eleven men. On the sixteenth day out William Davis, seaman, caught me by the throat and made a dash at my head with a knife. He cut me on the right cheek, tho scar from which still remains, as you will see. Ho was told to kill mo by August Plagge,a fireman. . "When Davis bBgan to cut me some of my companions caught him, but others shouted: 'Kill him, kill him. . We want1 something to eat. We are starving.' "It seoms that Plagge, Davis and others in one end of the boat had decided that I should die, as, being pretty fat, I looked inviting, Piagjre was placed on watch that night, but he was missimg next mox'ning. No one saw hi in go overboard. "On tho seventeenth day William Robinson lay dow.M to sleep When they tried to call him they found him dead. It was determined to eat his flesh, and William Wright, the cook, was ordered to carve he body. The first thing done was to crush in. Robinson's skull and from the fracture each one sucked the blood as Ion gas it would last, which was but a little while. Then the cook stripped the flesh from the ribs. Tho next day this flesh, in strips, was placed on top of th3 water tight compartments and dried fin the sun. After tal-iug out llouiuson's liver, heart and other parts which would furnish blood to bo sucked, they threw his inuthated body into the sea. "Two days after Robinson's death, Third Engineer Thomas Hunt died. His body was all cut up for food." In about three days tho limbs, aud feet of all began to swell and several have since broken out in ugty sores. We thiuk it is poison from the humau liesh and food. Both Graves and Loder say that they have no recollection of the taste of human flesh, so great was their mental anguish at the time, "The only recollection of the taking tho food is feeling our own blood quicken as it coursed throngh our veins." WASHINGTON NOTES. It is said now that the names of the thirty Pension Office employes given to the press this week as a full list of those re-rated under Commissioner Tanner is incomplete. There are about a dozen more of the Pension Office employes Who had their pensions re-rated and were given large arrearages. Their names appear to have escaped the notice of the Commission who examined the management of the ofiice. It is not yet known what action will be taken to recover this illegally allowed money, but it is believed that it will nearly all be recovered or the beneficiaries retired from tho public service. Most of them, it is intimated by Secretary Noble, will have to retire in any event. It is intimated that two of the employes of the Pension Office, whoso pensions were re-rated, have been officially requested to refund to the Government the extra money paid to them on account of such re-rating. The law gives them sixty days in which to reply to the notification of the Government, and it is not known what action they will take. Corporal Tanner denies that he tried to control the prof eoaional opinions of medi cal examiners.

OVER THEIR CRAVES. Over their gravee rang f nee the bugle's Call, The searehiug shrapnel,and the crashing ball; The shriek, the shock of battle, and the neigh Of horse; the cries of anguish and dismay; And the loud cannon's ihunders that appall. Now through the years the brown pine-needl fall, The vines run riot by tiie old stone Trail, By hedge, by meadow streamlet, far away; Over their graves We love our dead vrhero'erso held in thrall Than they no Greek more bravely died, nor Gaul A love that's deathless! but they look to-day With no reproaches on us when we say, "Coniel et us clasp your hands, we're brothers all," Over their graves! Henry Jerome Stuckard In The Century,
