Knasnn Caught.

Congressman Kasson, who is unmarried,
has long been suspected, says a Boston
Trarelsf correspondent, Of being a particu'
larly devoted admirer OF Miss Frelinghuy'
sen, daughter Of the Secretary Of Slate;
One evening recently he excused himself
early from reception on ths plea Of "nr'
gent committee work." and hied him to
tue Freliughuysen mansion. Thither he
was followed soon by some waggsh and
suspicious friends who had also been at
the reception, and finding him chatting
with Miss Frelinghuysen they began to
chaT him about that committee work.
Somewhat confused, he stammered out
something about having called on a little
business" Then Miss Frelinghuysen,
seeing the fun, exclaimed: why, Mr..
KAsson, you have been here three hours!
I didn't know you wanted to see papa
I'll ask him down Immediately" At this
the gallant Congressman was 'all broke
np,n AMI he had only strength lett to ejac.
uiMte that it wasn't Of any Importance, and
now it was SO late he'd better call another
time, and then beat hasty retreat.

The failure Of the Wool Exchange, by
which wool growers hereabouts are consid'
cradle losers, adds another to the ample
series Of practical lectures TO the iarmers'
There are farmers and farmers, but strike
an average, and no class Is mora literally
yictimized-by shSrpers with improved
patent cucumbers for sale, by demagoGues,
by well.meaning but not well.informed
persons, by the farmers own desire to
better himself through ways at variance
with trade laws disappointment and
disaster have their local effect, but the
field Is wide and the impression made is
not general.
The Pennsylvania, Ohio md West Viz
glnia wool growers who went into the Ex'
change were moved by desire to do away
with the middle.man, to get one step nearer
to the consumer Of their products Every
Neutrality-suspicious. was the AIM
but It could not be accomplished by In
dividuals separately, and 80 1t was tried by
association. 1tisnot necessary to consider,
In advance OF judicial inquiry,
whether the affairs OF the Exchange were
honestly administered. A vital element OF
success was lacking. The failure Is COM
plete, and for large amount. II the
farmer could add to his profit the middle
mans commissions he would gain by that
much. II he would come face to face with
the consumer, losing nothing and gaining
all by the closer contact, he would preft
by the return to primitive relations.
But the ideal barter Is not possible in
this day. All modern experience teaches
that the most successful man makes the
most intelligent use OF improved methods
OF trade. In this age the exchange OF
values is most advantsSeously conducted
by highly organized systems, in which
specialhes and specialists play aa
important, II not Indispensable, part. The
middle.man ia a specialist. II wool be his
specially, he gives his whole thought TO
that, and to the single feature Of marketing
it. Except as 1t touches his own business
he cares nothing about methods.of produc.

about manutacturinS-this he leaves to

Review of the Local Grain, Produce, and

Review Of the Local Grain. Produce, and
Provision Markets.
INDIANAPOLIS. April 10.
Trade is moving right along briskly, say the
wholesale men, and 1t is quito evident already
that the volume of business this month is to ex-
coed that of April, 1882. Prices on most lines of
goods continue firm and steady. Grocers are
having a good trade. Coffees strong at quota
tons, and sugars advanced ie Of a cent. The
egg market is weaker. Butter is coming in
freely, and unless the article is really choice it is
difficult to get prices quoted. Potatoes, as we'll,
are coming forward freely, and an early break in
prices is anticipated. In provisions, trade is
improving somewhat, and dealers look for an in
creased demand within the next few days.
GRAIN.
The local markets are firmer, although no ad-
vance in prices was established. The Board OF
Trade Price Current says of wheat: The alb
sence of large receipts has toned up local mar
kets, and the firm feeling continues. Buyers are
more numerous than sellers, and under light re-
eeipts IL is difficult to tll orders, The visible
supply report shows the large decrease Of 64l,-
023 bushels, and receipts are seen to be light in
all markets. SeabOard firmer all along the line,
with a fair export demand. We quote:
