DENVER, Coll, August 26.-Iniormation
from the Southern Ute agency states that the

his arm, but now they are no longer than
the first joint OF his finger.

the yor,hwesteru Corn Crop.

CHICAGO, August 26.-1he Commercial
Bulletin has replies from correspondents
in $50 counties in the Northwest, from Au-
gust 10th to the present time, as to the con-
dition and prospects OF the corn crop. The
result is the discovery that the stories OF
drought have been much exaggerated, and
that the frequent showers of the past few
days will doubtless remedy q great part of
the evil from drought. The crops will GER
tainly be large average, the damage being
confined 10 narrow limits. In some dis
tricts the crops will be the largest on re-
cord

dental motives, sends the following by
mail, under date OF August 23d: The
Government has taken q decision which Is
much censured in political circles, and
which will be energetically condemned in
the Cortes by all the West Indian men,
bers and the adherents OF Marshal Cam
pos. CauOvas and his colleagues, find
ing that General Blanco was sending
over more of the rebel Cuban chiefs
and OF the rank and file who have lately
surrendered than eau be conveniently re-
ceived in the penal settlements OF North
America, have determined 10 embark seve-
raj hundred men, including some prominent
chiefs, for the various islands near the Phil
lipines. These islands, half-deserted and
desolate, are inhabited by sayages and over
run nv rats. Their climate is tropical and
unhealthy. The Cuban members contend
that the insurgents surrendered on the ex-
press understanding that they would be set
free when they once reached Spain. The
army in Cuba is TO be reduced by the home
ward return Of $4,000 men whose time has
expired. Eight thousand recruits, how
ever, are to be sent out in October. IL is
possible that General JovelIar or General
Ceballos may replace General Blanco il he
returns TO Span."
