Perry's Flagship.

The Erie Dispatch says: The glory OF
one Of the chief points ot interest in the
narbor OF Erie-that which hung around
the place hallowed by the remnants Of
Perry's victorious fagship the Law
rence-has departed. Her remains have
been lifted from their quiet resting place
under the waves Of Misery bay and car
sula bringing to view the historical
relic.
The removal is looked upon with dis
favor by the majority of our citizens, and
it is not to be wondered at, as the Law
renee has been lying there SO long that
she was accounted public property, and
ia the summer time was visited by hosts
Of strangers-the frame work on one side
being yisible-Lo whom, as well as to
our own citizens, it was an object of the
greatest interest.
The remains are queer-looking mass.
The port side has been cut down nearly
to the keel. planking having been torn
of and ribs sawed of by those who
thought 1t no harm to steal piece OF
wood of the Lawrence, and this has
been kept up until at least q third OF her
bottom has gone. The Lawrence lay on
her starboard side, and that side is,
therefore, tolerably whole to the deck
beams-upper works all gone years ago
and in good condition, but it Is q pur-
plish black, the result Of the action OF
the water.
The Lawrence was built In 1918, her
self and the Niagara being completed
and ready for service in four months.
The keeis OF both vessels were laid by
Captain Daniel Dobbins, but the boats
were built by Noah Brown, and the
Lawrence was launched June 25, 1913,
and the Niagara on July 4, OF the same
year. What they did are matters of
history that will never be forgotten.
Or the twenty-seven killed on the Amer
ican side in the battle with the British
feet, twenty-five were on board the
Lawrence, and the proportion of the
wounded was equally great. After the
battle she was brought here, and in 1914
she was fitted out to attack the forts at
Mackinaw, but she .was unsuccessful,
and in 1916 she was sunk, and there has
remained ever since.
She was about 100 feet long, 20 feat
beam and 8 teet depth of hold. Her bull
warks were high, and she was lily fitted
for other than q war vessel, apd accom-
plished her mission.

The London Times contains an artic lie
on the British wheat crop from James
Card, who is said to be excellent au
thority; and from this artic,e We learn
that the acreage in wheat this year is
less by 100000 acres than in any pre-
vious year since 1860. The decrease Is
put down at eight per cent. in Ireland,
and the deficiency In the crop at Il, ,000,.
OOO quarters, or $4,000. 900 bushels. This
large deficiency will have to be made up
by importation, and all, or nearly all Of
it, must come from the United States.
This estimate is larger by some IL. .000, ,00(
bushels than most Of those hitherto
made, but without doubt it Is nearer
correct, as It is made up BY an English
man from English returns.

The Crooked whisky Business.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, Dec. l6.-The only
thing in whisky circles yesterday was
the arrival of Hon. Buford Wilson. The

engaged upon the question Of q general
remodeling of the prosecution at this
point. Whether that involves the re-
moyal of Colonel Dyer is not known as
yet, although there are those who assert
that it does.
A reporter endeavored to interview

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Dec. 16.-Mr.
and Mrs. Hollenschiet were found guilty
OF murder in the first degree for killing
their son-in-law, Albend, and sentenced
to be hanged at Herman, Mo-, on the 17th

the sex, and after careful examination
OF the evidence, thinks there are grave
doubts as to her being guilty or murder
in the first degree. Consequently he
commuted her sentence to imprisonment
for HE in the Penitentiary. Hollenschiet
has given up all hopes OF a reprleye, and
will undoubtedly be hung on the day
fixed.
