Kennebec and the Rio Grande. If there
were not a sudden increase In the list
Of horrible tragedies it would perhaps
be because the newspapers had not
shown with sufficient clearness the
modus faciendi. In view of this pecu-
liar phase Of human nature it may be
doubted whether it Is wise to give an
account Of the latest vagary that comes
in the news from Rome. This Is a case
of suicide by cremation. In initiating
an invention that a man has practiced
on himself we hope the apish portion Of
the public will not forget this part: the
man saturated his clothes with petro-
leum and set himself on fire. Thus he
had a bonfire all to himself.

Fire Department. Association.

A regular monthly meeting of the st. Paul
Fire Department association was held last eve
ming in the parlor of the hook and ladder
iams occupying the chair, and large number
of members being present.
The board of trustees having resolved that
relief would be afforded only from the date of
notice to the president or one of the trustees,
the matter was exclusively discussed, and the
action of the trustees was sustained.
The treasurer reported a cash balance on hand
Of $973.79.
The finance committee was instructed to in
vest from the surplus funds of the association
in the purchase of two city bonds Of the de-
nomination of $3.50 and $500. A pronissory
ote long due the association was referred to
the same committee, with directions to fix the
matter up before the next meeting.
The following persons were elected members
F. Richter Daniel Sullivan, John Metzdorf.
M. Klein and B. Presley, and T. J. McAndrews

It will be seen that DR.. Stewart has Sc
cured but very little aid outside of his own
county, while Washburn sweeps in the out
side counties rapidly. There still remain
twenty-three counties to be heard from, out
of which DIR. Stewart will secure some votes,
but the indications are that they will be in
about the same proportion as the table
above.
A stranger noting this result would in
quire what disreputable act or acts has DR..
Stewart performed that he should be thus
cavalierly thrust aside at the close
of his first term. To be in
formed that instead of doing anything
disreputable he had been hard working,
faithful representative, and accomplished
great deal for his constituency, would still
more confound the stranger. To those
familiar with Third district politics, the
whole secret can be summed up in the single
word-MoNEY. The nomination has been
corruptly, fagrantly bought away from
party obligations. 1t is not the Republican
party, it is not the people who are clamorous
for Washburn, but it is Bill Washburn's
money which is shouting for Bill Wash
burn. DR.. Stewards proposition to appeal
from this corrupt and fraudulent transaction
direct to the people, is the only course left
consistent with self respect. It is the only
way that our politics can ever be elevated
and purified.

ENGLISH GRAIN MARKET.

Somewhat Improved Appearance of Grow
ing Cereals--But Only an Average Crop
Expected--Floating Cargo Demand Light
With Still Further Decline in Prices.
LONDON. July 2.-The Mark Lane Express
says there is a decided change for the better in
the appearance of the growing wheat, which is
now in full bloom. At first sight the fields
seem to promise a large crop, but in many
fields the ears are small. With the exception
of barley and oats, appearances at present
point to fair average yield of cereals, as far
as quantity is concerned, while the. quality is
likely to be mediocre. insignificant supplies
of English wheat at Mark Lane and provincial
markets indicate rapid depletion of stocks in
farmers hands, and that little or not any will
be left over at harvest time. Imports of for
eign wheat into London have been more mod
ate of late, but the supplies go into the grain
airy rather than consumption. Small lots of
white wheat have been taken off the stands
for continental account, principally for
Belgium and north of France where the crops
are unsatisfactory and prices several shillings
higher than in London, but no further sales of
cargoes off coast have taken place. Maize has
not undergone much change on SPOT but new
mixed American to arrive was offered at 22s
I'd per quarter ''ex.ship," q price hitherto un-
