Treasures.

CLEVELAND, o., October 15.-"Dr."
George Schmidt, formerlya fortune teller
in this city, was arrested on charge
Of obtaining money by false pre-
lenses, by Detective Lawrence, in South
Minneapolis, Mimi, this week, and
reached this city ut o'clock this morning.

city, ms told by Il couple Of his victims, is

met the fOrtune.telling Doctor in saloon
on Woodland avenue, where she was do.
ing some washing. The Doctor pretended
to have some work TO be done and secured
u sufficient acquaintance to Wll ut her
home, which lie did u few days aftcrwar1.
While there he produced u puck Of cards
and while CaStlng them about made the rs.
tOnishing discovery that $4,000 in gold

CrcdulOus woman believed the story, and
when the Doctor told her that money was

cash and leaving the other SIS as interest
for six months.
While these operations were in progress
the fortunr-tclling Doctor made the ac-
quantanCe Of Mrs. KnGiS, another Ger.
man widow, who lived ut No. 81 Vine
street. While at her house the CarGls told
him that 81 100000 in pure gold was lying
buried in her yard; that it h0d been buried
by shareholders, and that only $50 was
needed to develop the treasure. At this
time Mrs. Schmidt returned with $02, and
gave the Doctor $50. Mrs. Knciss said she
liAd 10 money, and the Doctor told her to
raise il by u mortgage OH her place. She
says she went to II lawyer, who obtained
$50 for her at bank; tllNt sic give the
lawyer S2j for procuring the loan, and
gave the Doctor $500. All this time the
cunning fortune teller cautioned the wO.
man TO keep secret the story OF the hidden
money, and they implicitly obeyed him
When asked this morning how
they could believe such stories, both

THE CORN CROP
SERIOUS Falling Off From TIE Yield or
Last Year.

CHICAGO, October 15.--The Times to-day,
in summarizing exhaustive reports on tho
condition and prospects Of the corn crop in
the Western States, says: "NNith due al
lOwanCG for exceptional localities, stocks OF
old corn in the hands OF the farmers and
local shippers In this State, Indiana, Mis-
sOuri, Kansas and Nebraska, are unusually
light, yielding in many places only One-half
amount ordinarily held ut this season. Al
most everywhere the corn crop shows II
substantial falling of us compared with
last year. shortage us compared with
Inst year, OF 80 or 40 per cent Is reported
from n long list Of representative points,
and while few report corn good average,
or even something more than an average,
other reports show n reduction Of two
thirds or thrce-quarters OF tho crop. In u
few places the recent rains benefited tho
corn, but for tho most part these arc local
tiles where u few weeks agO the prospect
was particularly bad.
Several dispatches say that the rain i'm
proved the corn, but they 90 on to show
that in spite Of the improvement the crop
is short, as compared with that Of 1880, 20
or 3Oper cent. For the most part the rain
has done damage rather thangood. ltCamG
too late to repair the harm wrought by the
dry weather, and when 1t came there was
too much OF 1t. The corn is sprouting M u
result Of it. In tho central part Of this
State rains have seriously injured the corn
crop. Reports from Kansas and Nebraska
are generally better than those from this
State and Iowa. though some Of the reports
from Kansas and Missouri are particularly
bad. The result Of this scarcity Of the old
crop and the relatively poor prospect for
the new crop Is u large falling off in the
number Of hogs being fattened for the
market.
The official statistics Of Indiana report
i,78O,2l2 hogs this year, against 2,00JO23
lust year, u falling of Of II per cent, but
the reports received from the pork produce
ing.rcgion generally indicate almuCh larger
reduction. The number Of hogs being fat
tened is from % to 80 per cent less than
lust year in large portions Of the corn and
hOgnisng States.
