LONDON, Jnly 10.-Right Hon. Hugh G.
Childers, chancellor of the exchequer, an
nounced in the house of commons this
evening that the government hoped the
provisional agreement respecting the
second Suez canal could be reached to-
night. Henry Chaplin, conservative mem
Der for Mid Lincolnshire, moved that in
view of the prevalence of foot and mouth
disease, the importation of live cattle
should not in future be permitted from
countries whose preventive laws or sani-
tary condition whose cattle did
not afford reasonable against security
the extension of the disease. He
argued the diseese did not prevail in Scan
dinayia and British North America, and
that these countries afforded large sup
ply. The motion, he said, would interfere
with only four per cent. of the total meat
supply. The loss of cattle by disease had
in a few years amounted to millions. One
of the best means of insuring meat sup
ply was to encourage home production,
NE0db DTlSdu WOuIu aOb lOHR rely upUu
America for meat, as the rapid increase Of
the latter's population was causing the ex-
portable surplus to become less daily.
The member for Sheffield, Mr.. Mundeller,
opposed the motion. He said
one esixth of the cattle and
that supplied to Great Britain was for
eign. The adoption ofthe motion would be
continued cause of enormous loss to the
consumer. Mr.. j. j, Dodsen, member for
Scarborc, said the motion meant the
absolute prohibition Of the importation of
live stock. The government was unable
to agree thereto, but would assent to the
appointment of select committee to
enquire into the question of the foot and
mouth disease. An amendment in favor
of such select committee was, however,
negatived, and Mr.. Chaplin's motion sub
sequently carried by a vote of 200 to 1872,
members of the government voting with
the minority.

prices were on declining scale during

Illinois CroD..

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, July 10.-The state
full returns from all counties of the state
of the condition of winter wheat, July 1.
These show little improvement over the
returns for the three preceding mouths.
Reports indicate that the crop of winter
wheat in Illinois will not exceed 16000,000
bushels, or 32,OO0,000 bushels less than the
yield in 1882. The condition of winter
wheat in the northern counties was five per
cent better July l than a month
ago, and gives prospect of 81 per cent.
of the average crop. In the central coun-
ties the yield will be less than two-thirds
of crop. The most discouraging reports
come from the southern portion of the
state, which usually produces the bulk of
the crop, or GA per cent. less than last
years yield. 1t is quite unusual to have
less than an average yield per acre in any
of the southern counties.
CHICAGO, July 10.-The Farmers Re
uieaO in its issuelo tomorrow will publish
an exhaustive report on the condition of

eral change for the better in all crop pros
poets has taken Iplace during the past two
weeks owing to cessation of rains and the
advent of hot weather. The last week or
two combined seemed to bring forward
late corn and push on spring wheat and
oats The weather has been very fine for
early winter wheat harvest, and the crop is
now going into stack. The spring wheat
and oat crops are unusually promising,
and are now nearly assured. 1t is belived

MADRID, July 10.-In the chamber of

begun. Dominguez among other speakers
attacked the government as not being
liberal enough. He declared that his party
only accepted the constitution of 1876
with view of revising it on the lines of
that of 1869. The prime minister in
reply said, he was willing to embrace
even the extreme Democrats among the
liberals and to introduce by organic laws
the most liberal reforms, but he thought a
change in the constitution not necessary
for this purpose. He was not opposed to
a change in the constitution if expert
ence showed it necessary.

DODGE CITY TROUBLES.

There is still some trouble at Dodge
City, and likely to be for awhile. 1t is
not an easy matter to suddenly stop
vice in any form; and especially gamb-
ling. The state laws of Kansas are not
remarkable for their severity on this
subject. At last accounts the authOri-
ties were watching every train and pro-
hibiting gamblers, confidence men and
disreputable females from stopping in
the town.
As We published last week, Short, a
party whose saloon and dance house
was raided by the authorities and citi-
zens, and who had shooting match
with the city marshal, was afterwards
compelled to leave town. lie and his
friends applied to Governor Click for
protection, he, Short, expressing a de-
sire to return to Dodge City and stand
his trial. The Governor promised him
protection from violence, and now has
a company of militia subject to his Or
der, and threatens to send it down if
the citizens persist in preventing Short
from returning for trial. The trouble
has assumed another form, according
to the Kansas City Times, for that pa
per of Wednesday published the follow
ing in its local columns

ever gathered together in one place.

sporting man who has been stopping in
this city since being driven from Dodge
City 10y the vigilanters. Ostensibly the
object of the party is quiet amusement
but when all the circumstances in the
case are considered, 1t is apparent that
serious trouble may be looked for in
Dodge City.

CYCLONE DAY.

Last Sunday, 18th inst, was ''cyclone
day" over large portion of the west.
and while the loss of life was not so
great as during those of previous years,
there was an immense destruction of
property. The first one visited Kansas
City at 5 o'clock Sunday afternoon,
having started northwest of Wyandotte
where it played sad havoc; crossed the
bottom at the stock yards, tore down
some buildings there, damaged the
stock exchange and then leaped onto
the bluff, in the residence portion of
Kansas City and rushed through the
town in a southeast course, demolishing
everything in its way, for width of
several hundred feet. 1t spared Meth
er churches, stores or residences, but
leveled all alike. Strange to say only
three persons were killed in the city
and about a dozen wounded. Damage
to property estimated at Slz5, 900. From
the stock yards To the point where the
tornado crossed the river is about three
miles, and it appears miraculous that
the loss Of life and property was no
worse.
From Kansas City the storm crossed
into Clay county and did considerable
damage at Missouri City, Liberty and
surrounding country, blowing down
farm houses and barns, in great num-
bers and killing a great deal of stock.
It then passed through north Missou-
ri but appears to have lost much Of its
force. At Macon City, however, at 8
O'Clock in the evening, cyclone struck
the town and destroyed property to the
amount Of 500. 900 and killed four per-
sons, besides wounding several others.
This same storm did some damage in
other counties north.
In southwest Missouri at 9 O'Clock
Sunday night tornado destroyed the
town Of Oronogo, in Jasper county and
killed several persons and wounded 9TH

The CresSet attributes the small at
tendance at the stockmeeting held here
the latter part Of March ts the fact that
whiskey was sold in this city. We
must say that this Is new and origi-
nal suggestion, and entirely at variance
with the facts. The week OF the stock
meeting was damp, cold and generally
disagreeable, and ranchmen were kept
at homo looking after their stock.
That paper goes furthur and charges
those stockmen who we're here with dis
orderly conduct, as though they might
be nothing more than lot Of border
rufians. The fact is that the meeting
was made up of lot OF peaceable gem
tlemen who came here to attend 10 bus
mess, and who carried out their inten-
tons. There were few of the BOYS on
the outside who did have little amuse-
ment and no doubt took few drinks:
but the Cresset has just discovered that
they are guilty Of serious violations of
law.
And IL does make US tired to watch
the course of that sycophantic paper.
One week 1t is ready to lick the hands
Of the stockmen, and cannot find
enough words Of praise for them. When
ii imagines they will stand such stuff,
IL proceeds TO deliver them n lecture on
temperance and morality, and would
have them punished on showing the
slightest disposition towards revelry.
II would have the boys come in town
and stand around the streets with sane
timoniOus air until shutdown and then
retire as children to their beds before
the stars come out. An Joy must be
confined according to our puritanical
neighhOr.
And, after placing these restrictions
on the stockmen. the Cresset ut the
same time whlnes for their friendship /;
would be their organ. and demand their
support.

SOUTHWEST LOSSES.

From reliable gentleman ranching
in Barber and Comanche counties. The
Indicator learns that the Losses Of eat
tie in that section the past winter has
been fully 40 per cent. Messers. Ham,
ilton and Flint, who purchased 100
cattle last fall, have lost $50 of them,
and il is said that the COmanche Pool,
with the best range, have lost over ~
per cent. OF their Stock.-Kansas City
Indicator, May 10.
Articles such as the above, published
in reliable live stock newspaper, are
calculated TO do stockmen a great inju-
~; for the truth is that the losses in
Barber or Comanche county is nothing
like what the reliable gentleman"
would have the Indicator believe. We
speak truthfully when we SAY that the
average loss in this and Comanche
county during the past winter and this
spring will not exceed FIVE per cent.
and this is the general opinion of those
best qualified to know. In a few in
stances where cattle were driven in here
poor last fall and turned on worthless
range, they died in considerable num-
bers, some punches no doubt decreasing
20 per cent. But with range cattle,
those that had been wintered or raised
i'm this section, the loss was little more
than usual.
The highest estimate placed on the
Comanche Pool losses is five per cent.
while some members of the pool, who
have been on that range constantly for
years, declare that three per cent will
cover their losses. These gentlemen do
not desire to sell out nor do they want
to borrow any money, and have no OBJ
ject in misrepresenting the facts.
Hamilton * Flint, mentioned in the
article copied above, did not hold their
cattle in Barber or Comanche counties;
but north of here in Kingman county,
which is a herd law county, and over
which cattle are not permitted TO Craze
at pleasure. Their stock was driven in
late last year, turned on poor range,
and an effort made to feed it through.
But by bad management the feed was
all wasted by the first cold spell, and no
more could he obtained readily, and the
cattle did die fast, right in the corral;
but nothing like the number the Indi-
Gators reliable" informant would have
them believe.
Unintentionally the Indicator may
have done stOckmen of this section a
great injury, for men will read and be-
lieve such statements as the above,
when they appear in a reliable paper.
II is to be hoped that it will make
further inquiry and correct this mis-
take. =.
