ing, drew his sword and attempted to
cut him down, but Osman Pasha, be,
ing quick IN movement, lodged the
intended blow, receiving only a slight
wound. The assailant was ther
seized and placed under arrest.

SEVERAL PERSONS sCALDED TO DEATH IN A
STEAMBOAT EXPLOSION NEAR CAIRO.
ST. Louis. Aug. s No additional par
ticulars of the explosion of the steamer
Gold Dust, near Hickman, Ky. yesterday,
have been received here at this writing,
90 a. m) The steamer City of Alton, is
reported to have arrived at Cairo late last
night with the dead and wounded. and will
come through to St. Louis direct. The
most complete list of those who died from
the effects Of scalds aud other wounds re-
ceived by the accident is as as follows:
VIM. A. Ingraham or Ingram, third clerk
John Lytle, second pantry man; VIM
Travers; Peter Winter, second porter; Jim
Jerry, Captain of the watch; Howard,
roustabout; Charles Williams, second bar
Der; Manuel Victor, deck passenger.
Names of missing are not known as the
books were lost and the number may
swell to twenty or thirty more. The Gold
Dust was built in 1878 by Capt. E. w.
Gould at a cost of $50, 900. She was pur-
chased year later by the Anchor Line,
and was valued, at the time of the disaster,
at $50 900. The company carries no in
surance. She is therefore total loss.

August %.


CHICAGO, Aug S-An indianapolis
special says: The August crop bulletin of
the state bureau Of statistics shows
lndiana's wheat production to be larger
than ever before. The total acreage is
1850, S13; total yield Al, 1872, 600 bushels.
The acreage last year was 1000
SAT; production 30625, 900. The oat crop
also is the largest ever known. The acre
age is 634, 900; yield 10, 572, 900 bushels
against Il ,399, 600 last year Hay is very
fine and large crop. Perhaps ten per
cent. of the acreage planted to corn has
been abandoned. The northern division
reports the condition at "a per cent in the
central, 81; in the southern, II. The total
Wtreage is 3,062, 900 against 3, 135, 900 last
year.
A Lansing, Michigan special reports that
nine tenths of the wheat in that and sur
rounding counties was ruined by seven
days rain, the grain being sprouted in the
shock and the straw rotten. The farmers
are greatly disheartened. The yield was
bountiful and very little grain was saved.
Other crops look well.
A Lincoln, Neb., special says: Very en-
couraging reports are still coming in re-
garding the crops, and it is generally be-
leved corn will be big crop, whatever
may be the dondition of the weather from
now on, barring only possible early frosts.

Along Missouri river, many fields will av-
eroge 60 to 80 bushels per acre.

Along Missouri river, many fields will av-
eroge so to 80 bushels per acre.
As evidencing the uncommon maturity
of corn-ears of field corn are already in
market with well developed kernals. Good
judges estimate an average yield Of 90
bushels per acre. which the acreage being
nearly two millions will make the gigantic
total of 100, 900, 600 bushels of corn in Ne.
braska this year. 1t must be remembered
however that there is scarcely any old corn
in the state, and ii is doubtful if much of
the new crops will be shipped east. 1t
will be used largely at home for stock, and
carried over until next years crop is gath
cred. Many farmers this year had
to buy corn. About all the
other grain in the state is shocked. Where
wheat has been thrashed it has gone as
high as 35 bushels per acre. Generally
speaking, the crop Is good one and will
be not less than 100000 900 bushels. Oats
are big crop, though they suffered some
injury Some fields show IS bushels an
acre. The average will be about so bush
els per acre.
Latest reports from Minnesota show lit
tie grounds for fear of injury having been
done vet by wet weather.
