Halifax, October 1S.-There was
considerable excitement in the city last
evening over the arrest Of two men
with a large quantity OF dynamite in
their possession. In May last informa-
ton was received from Ottawa that an
attempt would probably be made by
Fenians to destroy the public property.
Precautions were taken by the ap-
pointment of extra police and other
means, but nothing occurred and the
latter laughed rel About a month
ago Lieutenant Governor Richey got
warning from Ottawa of the departure
from New York for Halifax of suspici-
GUS characters, supposed to be con-
nected with the dynamite branch of
the fenian brotherhood, but again moth
ing happened. Two men, giving the
names of William Bracken and James
Holmes, arrived here Friday last and
put up at the Parker house. 1t was
believed they came from the states.
They gave no names to the hotel peo-
pie and paid a weeks board in advance.
Detective Power watched them and
searched their rooms in their absence
and discovered dynamite, which was
secured, and then found the men and
arrested them.

Weather Wisdom.

New York, October 1S.-The Her.
aid noting the depression from the Pa
ciic, which for several days has been
slowly advancing eastward over south
ern California and Arizona says:
"As this depression advances to-
ward the Atlantic seaboard, it will
raise temperatures in all the districts
south of the fortieth parallel, and thus
help all the autumn crops, while also
postponing the first killing frosts south
of the Ohio valley. Being compare
lively dry cyclone, its effects will be
particularly favorable to sugar and cot
ton gro wers OF the gulf states. At
this critical period of their operations,
but in advance Of this storm, north
eastwardly navigation of the lakes will
be dangerous"

Special Contracts.

San Francisco, October 18.-The
railroad managers here say that the
Observation-Disclosures of the Northern Pa
ci6c to continue the special contract
system will have no effect on roads
west of the Missouri river. Under the
fifth section ofithe private agreement,
the NorthernlPacifc took solemn OBJ
legation, "a the clauseI reads, main
tain existing rates. The managers
here claim that Willard will have to do
so until he gives the required ninety
days notice Of his withdrawal from the
contract. TheI reasons assigned for
this proposed action OF the Northern
Pacific are that Willard wants to es-
tablish a special contractisystem on his
own line. One manager asserts that
he is doing 30 now in violation of the
agreement entered into, and that he
has proof that Willard offered special
contract rates to Portland merchants
Immediately after the close of the con-
ference, the contracts to run until De-
cember 31st, 1884. He also says that
Willard committed himself by a prom
Use to give through rates on local tar
ifs. These matters will be considered
at the meeting in Chicago on the 31st
when another commissioner will be
elected.

Damage to the Wheat trop.

st. Paul, MIMI, October 1S.-Millers
and grain dealers are in a state of per-
turbation over well authenticated re-
ports of great damage 10 wheat crops
by the frost September 80 and succeed
ing nights. These authorities say the
frost fairly froze barley and chilled the
life out Of grain which bad not then
been cut and which it is estimated
represented over one-third the entire
crop. The district thus affected ex-
tends N further south than the North
ern Pacific railroad. As soon as sue
ceeding warm days came the grain was
thrown out and began to shrivel into
miserable little seeds. The first gen.
eral knowledge of the extent
Of damage was obtained through
the elevators, which Immediately re-
ceived orders from headquarters to re-
fuse all such wheat until further notice.
A reporter was told by a repres ,nta-
tive Of the Pittsby Hurlbut Elevator
company that the situation is alarm
ing. He said all the elevators in that
region had stopped receiving frost Bit
ten wheat, which would amount to
fullyaone-haf the yet unmarketed crop.
Up to the time OF the frost he thought
not %one-fourth had been gotten out the
way, 80 that will leave one-haIf, or
three-quarters of the entire crop, or
three-eighths the whole, which will
amount to about four million bushels.
Chemists are at work examining in
fected wheat to see whether it is worth
any thing or not.
