Tho Chicago Savings institution
SNIndie.

. CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-The deeper in
vcstigators 20 into the accounts of the
State Savings Institution the more
patent does it become that its officers
have systematically plundered its
15,O 600 depositors and left them instead
of $3,O0O,OOO less than $1,000, 600, and
that sum is not readily convertible
into cash.
Neither Spencer, Guild or Buckley
have been heard from, but rumor
comes from New York, apparently
we'll founded, that Spencer sailed
from New York on the steamship
Wisconsin, of the Guion Line, for
Liverpool on the same Tuesday that
the bank passed into the hands of the
assignee. Spencer's transactions are
worthy of brief record.
The family held stock in the Cook
County National Bank and was con.
nected with it before its failure. He
got out of that bank, borrowed mon
ey, gave in lieu thereof his note to
the bank and with the proceeds
bought enough shares in the State
Savings to become principal share.
holder. He then borrowed nearly
half million dollars from the State
Savings to liquidate his matured note
at the Cook Co. Bank, and gave his
note to the State Savings for that
amount. Finally he gave the State
enough shares of stock to liquidate
his matured note to that institution
and called himself square with the
world.
The books are full of crooked trans
actions, and there is hardly day
where the assistant cashier did not
force a balance to indicate that the
bank had more money than it really
had.
In all dealings the forms of law
seem to have been observed, and it is
if the offense is an extradit-
able crime.
All the other banks are doing about
their usual business to-day.

ST.. LOUIS, Aug. 3l.-The Globe

THE RUSSIAN ACCOUNT.

LONDON, Sept. 3, lS77.-A cores
pondent with the Czarnwitch's army
says of Thursdays battle: General
Leonoff, who commanded at Karasan,
had about 1900 infantry, 500 cavalry,
and ten guns. No less than 10000
Turks formed the advance. 1t was
odds of six to one for eight hours be-
fore the Russians left the village, and
firing was almost continuous during
the whole day. After the Turks had
entered q portion Of the village the
Russian infantry held their ground
for two hours, awaiting reinforce
ments. At length 300 came, and two
hours more Of hot firing ensued, dur
ing which the Turks were continual
ly being reinforced by masses Of
troops. 1t was long since certain
that we must loose our position, but
the retreat did not begin fairly until
4. The fighting having commenced
at 8 in the morning, when, from al
along the line, came suddenly bach
exhausted infantrymen. The only
remark passed was, "There are toe
many" General Leonoff and hi
staff were indefatigable in their exer
tons. When the retreat began it wa
an ugly one. From one little rise tt
another we went each time, until thu
fire was too hot for us, and at las
when a great body of Circassians how
cred upon our right flank in the maiz
fields below, our Cossacks and hus
sars were sent down to meet them
Our position finally yielded, and W.
struggled back to Gagovo. Such o
the wounded as could manage t
crawl away did so, while the infan
trymen bore back others on thei
rifles. We gave up our horses t
wounded officers, and finally gathere'
q few hundred of us at the foot of
hill along the winding road whic
leads to Karasan. The result of tn
loss at Karasan 10 not important un
less the enemy succeeds in forcing tn
heights we now hold. The CzarC

into small masses at different place
along the whole line Of front froT
Giurgevo to Tirnova. Speedy cor
centration Is impossible, first fror
want of troops, and second. on ~
count of the great distances and mai

an admirable one. We stand, G

This correspondent estimates tn
Russians at 5000 killed and wounde
in the battle.

/ CouhtTy), tnesc figures snow that In
the nine states the farmers will re-
ceive the enormous sum of $S6, ACC, COO
more for their wheat crop of 1877
than for that of 1876. Making all
reasonable allowance for unforeseen
contingencies, we may safely estimate
that they will receive an increase of
say Is per cent. in money value over
last year. At no former time in the
history of Oregon as an agricultural
state has the prospect for abundant
haryests of grain of all kinds been so
bright as at this season. It is esti-
mated that the surplus of breadstuffs
this season will be from IS to 30 per
cent. greater than in 1856. With q
largely increased acreage, there will,
from present appearances, be a sur
plus of at least 5, SOC, 600 bushels over
and above requirements for home
consumption. California, whence of
late years q steady stream of grain
has poured out, spreading not only
among the islands of the Pacific and
the continents watered by its waves,
but extending to the Atlantic and
Mediterranean. will probably pro-
duce this year 100000 bushels of
wheat less than last year.
With greater acreage than ever
before, the corn crop Of the United
States promises to be unprecedented.
Throughout the northwest the corn
crop, as a whole, requires rain, yet it
is not suffering.
The agricultural situation at the
present writing may be summed up
in few words. In no state east of
the Rocky Mountains is there fail
ure of any crop-on the contrary, ev-
erything points to q surplus of wheat,
corn, oats, rye and barley. 1t is not
believed that the farmers of the
northwest will market their grain at
present prices. The total exports Of
W heat and corn Gncluding -four and
Indian meaD from the United States
for the fiscal year ending June 30,
1877, were as follows: Wheat, 40,325,
GIL bushels; flour, 3,343,GG5 barrels /;
total reduced to bushels of wheat,
81, O43, 1886; corn, 7O,S6O, 1888; corn meal
