hitch OF the $50 men who belong TO the

claim support from their order. About $50

Assembly Of the Knights OF Labor at New
York, and their promises of support, the
men feel determined to fight it out. Ran.

sent from England, $500 Of which arrived
yesterday, and the balance which was sent

CLEVELAND, September pa special
from Fostoria says: Quite ripple Of ex-
citement is created here by the announce.
ment that Lieutenant C. W. Thomas, q
prominent citizen OF this place, has skipped
out for parts unknown with a member OF
the demi-monde, leaving wife and son to
mourn his loss. Thomas has been tie in
spector on the Nickel Plate for the past
year, and on one of his trips up the road
he became acquainted with O dsmsel
living near the State line, with whom
he soon became on very in
innate terms. Not long since he brought
the girl to this city, representing her to be
student desirous Of taking course at the
Academy here. The landlady at the place
where she boarded, soon suspected crook
edness, and forthwith bounced the young
lady. About this time Thomas went home,
packed his trunk, told his wife he was go
ing into camp at Toledo with Company ID,
and lit out. The girl got on o l.. L. & W.
train and Thomas got on the same train
at the crossing, and here all accurate trace
of the guilty parties is lost. Thomas wife
is q very pleasant lady and is nearly dis
tracted at the conduct of her heartless hus-
hand

THE WHEAT CROP.
Excellent Both at Home and Abroad.

Exeeiieut BON al Home anu ADrOao.
WASHINGTON, September 23.-The State
Department has Information from abroad
indicating that the very excellent wheat
crop, not only in this country, but in Eu.
rope, has reduced prices there already and
that the producers of this country may as
we'll make up their minds to accept low
rates for their wheat this year. The sud
den termination of the Anglo-Egyptian war
also has depressing effect on prospective
values Of breadstuffs, for it not only lessons
the demand, but reopens the Suez Canal,
through which a considerable portion OF
the supply of England now comes from
India The breadstuf crops of the world is
this year undoubtedly large, and when 1t is
learned that the United States will alone
have over three hundred million bushels OF
wheat for expectation, the largeness of
the supply is quite evident. From present
appearances it is believed that the surplus
in this country this year will be nearly dou-
BILE that of any preceding year.
Speaking of wheat reminds me to add
that recent reports received here show that
the corn crop is ripening finely, and that
the recent estimates of a remarkably large
yield were quite just.
