HOMEOPATHY.

Second Day of the Session of the American
Institute.
MILWAUKEE, June 16.-An Important fea-
ture of the American institute of horeo-
pathy to-day was the paper of DR.. Berridge,
of London, England, representing the HON.
eopathic society of Great Britain. 1t op-
posed the liberality of the younger members
of the profession. That liberality was
curse, as it attempted to substitute empiric-
ism for the principles of Hahneman. There
was some dissatisfaction on the part of the
liberal members at the Incorporation of Ber-
ridges paper in the proceedings of the in
stitute. A supplemental report of the board
of censors was presented by DR.. McManus,
of Baltimore. Papers were read by Drs.
Dreyfagle, of Louisville, Kentucky, Edward
Smith, of Cleveland, and Lewis Sherman, of
Milwaukee. The report of the latter was
particularly interesting from the subject
matter, the "Milwaukee Test" which has for
a year past engrossed the attention of the
profession. It is an attempt to test the
medicinal power of the thirtieth attenuation
by cruical tests. Experiments were carried
on for year by the Milwaukee academy of
medicine.

A Very Serious Accident.

frightful accident took place on Mis-
sissippi street about 8 o'clock last night
which almost resulted seriously to the wife
of we'll known citizen. At the time named
Mr.. Samuel Potter and wife were driving
across the railroad bridge when their horse
took fright at a train of passing cars and
plunged furiously for the railing of the
bridge.
The animal SHE'D into the side of the bridge
and tipped over the buggy. Mr.. and Mrs.
Potter were partially thrown out and dragged
several yards when the horses feet became
entangled in the lines. The lady was forci
bly, thrown out, striking head first and sus-
tanning fracture of the arm, besides having
a number of bruises on her head and arms.
Mr.. Potter, fortunately, was only slightly
injured. Mr.. Jerrey Buckley gallantly came
to the front, stopping the horse and rescuing
Mrs. Potter from her perilous position. The
lady was conveyed to the residence of Mrs.
Savory, where she was kindly rendered the
necessary assistance. After recovering from
the shock a vehicle was procured and she
was conveyed to her residence. 1t is thought
that the injuries are not serious.

The Flood at WinOna.

Special Telegram to the Globe.
WINoNA, June 16.-Although the water has
not yet reached the 1859 or 1870 point it is very
near it, and rising more rapidly at this stage
than it did in either of those years. with every
indication that 1880 will chronicle the highest
water ever known i'll the Mississippi at this
point. At noon to-day the water was sixteen
feet above what is placed as low water mark.
The Diamond 10 dock is careened over on one
end and stands a fair chance of being carried
away. The boats of the company are landing
at the levee near the Keyes property. The WI
mona & st. Peter depot is in sad plight, the
water flowing through it with tremendous
force and from five to six feet
over the floor. The gas jets are
only about one foot under water. At the mill
of Messrs. Youmans Bros. & Hodgins the water
forms an interesting sight as it rushes through
the sluice-ways which have been cut to ease the
strain on the railroad track. Notwithstanding
the stone that has been placed along the track
between the mill and the machine shops, fears
are entertained that it will be washed out be-
fore eight tonight. The turnpike which cross
es to Sugar Loaf is entirely submerged and the
bridge is being lifted from its supports A
farmer attempted to cross this morning but
the water as it poured into his wagon box dis
couraged the experiment. At 5 o'clock this
afternoon the water had risen to within three
quarters of an inch of the 1870 mark and still
slowly rising.

Jurisdiction of the old grand grove. After the
transaction of minor business the session drew
to close. The next session will convene in

Wheat steady on cargoes. with wet weather on
the continent and another day of misery for
the bulls and one of jollifcation for the bears.
The balance sheet has not been made out vet,
but you can bet your bottom dollar that there

bears before the account is closed. The prop
erty is going out as fast as it possibly can and
/ firmly believe before the end of the month
the bins will be stripped and elevators clean,
waiting the influx of the new crop. Amount
shipped to-day 4S0000 bushels. The re-
port this afternoon is that the gang have only to
engage LOCO, 900 more capacity and the deal is
cleared as far as cash wheat is concerned.
When the dear, yelping chirpers come to re-
alizing sense of their crime in depressing the
property of the honest granger, they will break
their backs getting a slice before it reaches
famine prices. Buyl buy! but let it out on
the breaks. Closing hrmer, June 92}sc, July
9l5Sc, August $3.50, and it will go higher and
don't you forget it. The direct export orders
in yesterday and to-day are simply enormous
and the demands for cash immense and diff
cult to execute. If the cash was to be had
the property in thirty days would start for dis
uribution in all parts of the world.

GRIMES AND CASUALTIES,
DEFALcATIoN OF A BANK pREsIDEN.

DEFALCATIoN OF A BANK PRESIDENT.
BATTLgBoRo, VT, juno 16.-The rumors
upon which yesterdays dispatch were based
concerning the insolvency of the First National
Bank, of Battleboro, are more than realized.
Although thorough investigation had not
begun at 2 o'clock, enough is already known
to warrant the statement that the loss will
reach upwards of a quarter million, through
forgeries of president, 8. NJ. Waite, who has
undoubtedly left the country, as the directors
believe, taken large sum of money with him,
how much can only be determined by a search
ing investigation, which will be begun on the
arrival of Bank Examiner Hendec. The forged
paper includes Connecticut River railroad for
about $4,000; Frederick Billings, $4,000;
Trenor W. Park, $4,000; Lyon Healy, of
Chicago, 500, 900; Taunton Locomotive Works,
about $4,000; @. j. Amidon, Hindsdale,
$I5 600; Vermilye & Co., New
York, some $4,000; and others
whose names will be made public as the inves-
tigation proceeds. How much of the paper
has been used by Waite as collater al upon
which he may have raised large amounts
for individual use the directors are unable
to say, but rumors that Springfield and Boston
banks have been victimized in this way are
current. The bank was chartered in 1852
under the hume of the Windham county bank
The corruption is believed to date back more
than ten years, when it it alleged brother of
President Waite got into financial Irregularities
in Chicago bank, or insurance company,
which it is said were Strengthened out by the
payment of $4,000, the funds coming from
Battlesboro bank Suits have been brought
against the directors by the stockholders. 1t
is believed many country banks will be serious
ly crippled through Walters operations.

THE SIXTH WARD.
The Worst Over-A False Report About the
Stock Yards.

The Worst Over-A False Report About the
Stock Yards.
During Tuesday night the water in the
river registered two inch rise. AS COM
pared with the other days of the week there
was q decrease in the volume of the current,
and from seven o'clock yesterday morning
until nightfall. the rise was slightly over one
inch.
The situation is quite as painful to the
view as ever. AS far as the eye can sweep
below the bridge, the fats of West st. Paul
are covered with almost an unbroken sheet
of water. Properly speaking, the water has
not yet overfown the banks, having overrun
the flats from the low lands below the bend
in the river and gradually worked back in the
direction of the bridge.
Up to date no serious loss of property is re-
ported, and reasoning from analogy, it will
appear that should the fine weather of yes
terday continue the water will rapidly recede
as the current assumes its natural volume.
No serious apprehension is expressed by the
residents of the Sixth ward concerning the
situation, and 1t is reasonably thought that
bu0 WOTSt ID Of6Is 4u0 1uOI0Cb QdIudSO VI
drawbacks to real estate resulting from the
overflow are of so Intangible a nature, de-
pending as they do on contingencies, that
not even comparative estimate is possible.
The water on the flats will necessarily re-
tard building operations, but it is not ex-
pected that any permanent injury will be
entailed upon the property. In speaking of
the rise the alarmist of the Pioneer Press,
among other blunders, stated that the North
western Stock yards were covered with water,
and that cattle consigned there was being
unloaded at other places, and that all the
stock had been removed from the yards.
The statement is not only false, but its NAL
iciousness is calculated to greatly injure an
important enterprise in st. Paul. The fact
is, that cattle are being received and shipped
with customary promptitude, and that the
floor of the yard is at least two feet and one
half above the water. Furthermore, the
proprieters have taken the precaution to
build chutes connecting with the Sioux City
shops in case of an immediate use, which is
not anticipated.

NEGRO EXODUS.
MINORITY REPORT.


WASHINGTON, June Ex-senator Window pre-
sented in the Senate to day the views of the
minority of the exodus committee appointed
to investigate the causes which led to the emil
grafton of negroes from the Southern to the
Northern States. The minority assert they
found no evidence whatever tending to sustain
the charge that the Republican party, or any of
the leaders, have been instrumental-eith di-
rectly or indirectly, in encouraging the exodus
of the blacks from the South to the North
With reference to aid societies encouraging and
aiding this migration, the minority found that
their purposes were purely charitable, and had
no connection whatever with any political
movement. The minority then proceeded to a
very exhaustive review of the evil
dence of some of the principal colored
witnesses examined by the committee, nearly
all of which witnesses the minority say attrib-
utes this cause of the exodus to feeling of inse-
Guilty for life and property, a denial of their
political rights as citizens, long continued
persecution for political reasons, system of
cheating by landlords and storekeePers, which
renders it impossible for them TO make liv-
ing, no matter how hard they might work. The
inadequacy of school advantages, and fear that
they would be eventually reduced to system
of peonage even worse than slavery itself. As
to the future of the exodus the minority refer
to the testimony of many witnesses, who de-
clare that it has only begun, and that
what we have seen IN the past Is
nothing compared to what is to come unless
there shall be radical changeon the part of
the Democrats in the South.
In conclusion the report says: There is but
one remedy for the exodus and that Is fair
treatment for the negroes. If the better class
of white men at the South would retain the
colored laborer, they must recognize his man
hood and his citizenship, and restrain the
vicious and lawless elements in their mist. If
Northern Democrats would check the threat
ened inundstion of black labor in their States,
they must recognize the facts which have pro-
duced the exodus and unite with us in remov-
ing its causes. The report is signed by Sena'
tors Window and Blair, the Republican mem
bers of the committee.

WASHINGTON, June 16.-At the session of
the House this morning Mr.. Carlisle, chairman
of the committe to inquire into the charges
of the alleged bribery in the contested cleo
ton case of Donnelly vs.. Washburn, submit
ted q report, and it, with the majority report,
was ordered printed.
Upon this action Mr.. Kiefer asked in
what respect, if any, is the committee unani-
nous in making this report.
Mr.. Carlisle-I am authorized to say the
committee after considering all the testl-
mony given by experts and others, has un-
aninously come to the conclusion, the
weight of testimony shows that the anony-
NOUS letter was written and sent by ii. I'll.
Finley. Beyond that am not authorized
to make any statement because there is the
probability of a disagreement IN this COM
mittee as to other points.
MIR. Manning didn't understand the gen
tleman from Kentucky, Carlisle, as making
env statement as to how Mr.. Donnelly was
referred to in the report. When he had
asked the House to investigate this matter
he had a report ready to submit from the
committee on elections. But in view of the
charges made by the gentleman from Hi
nois, Springer, that Donnelly had IN
spired that letter, he hadn't submitted
the report. He would be glad to know be-
fore he submitted that report whether or
not the committee had reached any con-
clusion touching Donnelly's connection with
the anonymous letter. If no reflections
was cast on DonnelIy by that committee he
would now submit his report.
Mr.. Carlisle-Of course I am not author
lied to speak for the minority on the point
submitted by the gentleman, but can say
for the majority that it has not come to the
conclusion that Donnelly had any personal
connection with the anonymous letter.
Mr.. Baker-You say he had no personal
connection. Had he any connection at all!
Mr.. Carlisle dislike to be subjected to
these questions, and | have some embar-
rassment in answering, but can say that so
far as the majority is concerned it does not
find that Donnelly had any connection, per-
sonal or otherwise in sending or writing the
anonymous letter. MIR. Finley was the at
torney and friend of Donnelly, but the
committee does not find Donnelly had any
knowledge of the anonymous letter.
Mr.. Manning-With that vindication of
Donnelly I submit my report. The report,
which is signed by five Democratic
members of the committee on
elections, declares that Washburn
is not entitled to the seat, and that Ignatius
Donnelly is. Mr.. Manning stated that Phistef
concurred in the first part of the resolution
and dissented from the latter part.
MIR. Kiefer submitted another report from
the committee on elections declaring VIM. ID.
Washburn is, and Tgnatius Donneay is not
entitled TO the seat. He stated the former
part of the resolution met with the concur
renee of seven ont of the fifteen members of
the committee, and the latter portion with the
concurrence of ten out of the fifteen. Both
reports were ordered printed and recon-
mitted,
