the design is ''to furnish information bearing
on other litigation"
The object of the garnishee proceedings is

Especial Telegram 10 the Globe.]
MILWAUKEE, Wis, Jan. 10.---About the
coolest weather ever known in Wisconsin was
experienced last night. This morning at
Ripon the thermometer ranged at 2S and 30
degrees below zero, and this phenomenally
severe weather may be said to have extended
over the entire wheat belt of the State. Reports
from points well to the southern line record
it as from 80 to 81 degrees below. In Hilwau-
kec the mercury was "a degrees below at 6
o'clock this morning. Appropos of
this remarkable weather news is
the report that the winter
wheat crop is terribly damaged in Wisconsin
and Michigan. The best information obtain
able is to the effect that one-third of the entire
wheat area in the West has been SO badly
damaged that the crop will be proftless.
FREDERICKSBURG, Va, Jan. 10.-A storm
of rain, freezing as it fell, prevailed yesterday
and until nearly noon to-day, doing great
damage to orchards and shade trees. Tele-
graph wires were broken down in all directions.
Fears are entertained of freshet on the Rapa-
hammock and its tributaries.

STARTLED STEELE.
Lively Experience of a Banana King with
Kentucky TrOtter.

Lively Experience of a Banana King with
Kentucky Trotter.
Mr.. w. F. Steele, the big farmer of the
Northern Pacific banana belt, near Bis
marck, knows how it is himself. Mr..
Steele is recently from visit to the
blue grass region of "Old Kaintuck, :"
where he purchased finely bred and
handsome looking trotter. The horse
having got over the fatigue of his jour-
ney, Mr.. Steele concluded yesterday
morning that he would give him a little
speeding over "the snow, the beautiful
snow" For this purpose he dressed the
animal in handsome harness costing
800, and attached him to as nice a cut
ter as could be found in Overpeck's
livery stable Everything in readiness
Mr.. Steele seated himself in the cutter,
wrapped himself up in the robes, took
the reins, and with smile childlike and
bland, nodded his head for the word "go."
And then the music commenced, though
pitched to different key than anticipat-
ed by Mr.. Steele. The horse did not ego"
but his heels did, aud soon the air was
filled with horseshoes, fragments of the
cutter, flying robes, ETC., and excited
cries of Hwhoal'' "whoa!'' The
circus continued about five minutes, at
the end of which time the cutter was
reduced to kindling wood, the harness to
shoestrings, and the banana king was
thoroughly demoralized. The horse got
through with few slight scratches. Mr..
Steel will now purchase another harness
or sell a horse, which, he has not yet fully
decided.

A NATIONAL DISGRACE.
american Wheat Shipped to Europe A.
most Wholly IN Foreign Ships.

american Wheat Shipped to Europe A.
most Wholly IN Foreign Ships.
New York Special, Jan. 81
Some interesting statistics have been
compiled here as to the expectation OF
grain from this port, and the classes OF
vessels engaged in transporting it across
the ocean last year, which nation is the
greatest carrier, and how far the ship
ments by steam are gaining on those by
sail. The statistics show that steam is
rapidly gaining on sail in this business,
and perhaps this is all the more remard-
able, inasmuch as the grain is not of q
perishable character like provisions and
dairy products, and hence does not neces-
state rapid transportation, and also be-
cause sailing vessels have always been
considered as in every way fitted for the
trade. Yet, of the total shipments in 1880,
49, ,966, 579bushels were carried by steamers
and 60, ,375, ,544 by sailers, while in 1879,
40, 800, ,058 were carried by steamers and
$780, ,023 by sailers, an increase over 1873
of 6, ,466, ,521 bushels by steam and only
4, ,466, ,563 BUSHES by sail. At this rate, it
is evident it will not be long before the
steam shipments will exceed the sail.
There was large addition to the fleet OF
irregular steamers in 1880, and to this
class of vessels must be credited the large
increase over last year. In 1880 there were
], ,7S9 sailing vessels carrying grain and
1892 steamers, total of 3,0S1. In 1873
there were l, ,799 sailers and l,056 steam"
ers, decrease, in 1880, of sailers, and
an increase of 236 steamers.
Tho otaop, chinmpntc n 1880 were
made by British, Belgian, Danish, Dutch,
French, German, Italian, and Spanish
bottoms, neither American, Austrian,
Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, or
Swedish vessels being included in the
list. ALI these nationalities, however,
excepting Belgium, figure conspicuously
in the shipments by sail. British YES
sells are the heaviest carriers, transport
ing over so per cent. of the total ship
ments. The Portuguese carry the least,
but the flag which cut the worst figure is
that of the United States, which, though
furnishing all the grain, carried but l
32S, 1886 bushels has not single steamer
in the service from this port,
whereas even Spain excels us
in this particular, five steamers
under that flag transporting 129, ISL
bushels. The British show the largest
increase over 1879, in both sail and steam
English steamers Fcarried 40,453, ,521
bushels, or Xnearly 100000 more than
in 1879. Most of the British sail vessels
are colonial built, and, while they have
heretofore been Disseminated against by
underwriters, they have improved during
the past year, which fact accounts forthe
increase in British sail shipments Ovel
1879. The British carry all but 100000
bushels of the steam cargoes, and about
wo-fifths of the sail Shipments. The
British, Italians, Norwegians, Austrians
and Germans are the favorite sail carriers
although the Norwegians did not carry as
much last year as in 1879.

THE NAVY DEPARTMENT.
n Statement Touching the Status of the Nes
Secretary With the Neet dnintstrdtton.


Secretary With the Nent Administration.
Washington Special. Jan7.]
The statement is authorized that in the
appointment Of Gen. Golf to be secretary
of the navy there was no sort of an un-
derstanding between President Hayes
and Gen. Garfield in regard to the latter
continuing Gen. Go Fl as a member OF the
cabinet President Hayes had previously
offered the position to several gentlemen,
all of whom felt compelled to decline it..
At no time pending the. vacancy was
there any overtures made or understand
ing arrived at looking to the appointment
of q gentleman who would be accepta-
BILE to Gen. Garfield, the
only object being to fill the va
cancy by the appointment of gentleman
competent to perform the duties, and who
would be acceptable to the other members
of the cabinet in every respect.
Gen. Golf himself has no idea Of becOm-
ing member of Gen. Garield's cabinet,
though he would probably accept cabi-
net position under the next administra-
tion if one should be offered him. At the
present time he has no other expectation
than to return to his district -attorneyship
in West Virginia after the appointment
of his successor. In the meantime Mr..
Caldwell, assistant district attorney, will
be authorized to perform the duties of
the Office The position of secretary of
the navy was never rendered to Mr.. Hogg,
the efficient chief clerk of the department,
| for the reason that it was not deemed a
proper thing to elevate the chief clerk
over the heads of the captains, commo-
dores, and admirals who are filing the
positions of chiefs of bureaus. No one
appreciates this fact more than Mr.. Hogg
himself. The new secretary participated
in the cabinet session to-day, and after
wards visited the department, where he
put in over two hours hard work signing
letters, acquisitions, etc. He will to-
morrow morning be formally presented
to the heads of the bureaus and other Of
ficers, after which the department will be
once more in working order.
