Speaking of the iron market, the
Philadelphia Press says: The fact that
steel rails have declined % to 80 per
cent within year should not be re-
garded "a an indication of the condi-
ton of the iron trade throughout. Ca
pacity for the production of steel rails
has more than doubled within the past
two or three years, besides which very
heavy imports were made in 1880, 1881
and 1882. a considerable increase of
capacity has been made in other direc.
tions, but liz no such proportions rs in
steel rails; neither is there anv reason
to suppose that there will be any such
decline in prices. Pig iron quotations
are about as they were year ago, and
although such thing may occur, there
are very few who have a thorough
knowledge of the trade who predict with
any degree of confidence even dollar
rcr ton decline"

Liquid Manure,

Ii ID \ matter Of great surprise that
many farmers allow the LIQUID contents of
their barn.yards to be washed away into
creeks and rivers, instead Of saving and
utilizing It In fertilizing their land. Nor
will it ever be otherwise until proper
means are taken to prevenl il. There Ger.
tainly would be no great trouble In dong
so. All that II necessary is to dig round
pit or cistern OF sufficient size just outside
the barnyard, and walling it up with stone
firmly imbedded IN cement mortar to make
1t water.tight. A trench or sort of blind
ditch about foot in depth-the sides Of
which to be also walled with stone
should then be dug all around the lower
side Of the yard, close inside the fence,
for the purpose Of conducting the liquid
from the yard to the cistern, from which
1t Is to be pumped or emptied as needed
into five barrel cask. placed in the hind
end OF a wagon, TO be hauled to wherever
wanted. A hole should have been previ.
ously bored into the cask near its lower
heading, from which there should extend
u piece of rubber hose TO connect it with a
distributor suspended from the rear end Of
the wagon by means of iron rods, the dis
tributor to be made OF four.inch pump
stock, five feet IN length, closed at both
ends and perforated with quarter.inch
holes at short intervals the whole length of
the bottom for the purpose of distributing
the liquid over the land. With such con.
trivance it Is an easy matter 10 distribute
the liquid as fast as accumulated, and il is
particularly beneficial to grass land at any
time when the grass is not large enough to
be injured by beng driven over. BY this
means, and by carefully saving and utiliz
Ing all other manurial material found on
the premises, we verify believe that on a
majority of farms the most of the money
now being spent In the purchase Of fer.
tilizers could be saved Baltimore Sun.

LOYAL AND GENERAL.

Our stay In Wilmington this
week was happy one, but in July
we anticipate glorious time.
We have been absent from the
city all the week till this morning
which accounts for the delay of this
issue.
Wecongratulate Wilmington upon
its intelligent and interesting young
ladies', of which it seems to have a
superabundance.
A party of young ladies gave a
picnic at the Mineral Springs last
Saturday, which was attended, by a
number of friends, and much en-.
joyed, though the threatening
clouds hurried them back home.
Both Graded Schools closed last
week. The Exhibition of the COL
ored school came off at the Presby-
terrain church Friday night, and the
whites at the Opera House Satur-
day night. Each gave good enter
inmcnts to largo houses.
The Commencement at Zion Wes-
ley, Salisbury, is next Tuesday, and
at Blddle University next Wednes-
day. 1t is hoped all our friends
Who have never been out to Biddle-
vile will go. Those who have been
need no further encouragement.
The excursion from Wilmington
to Raleigh on the 18th, to the Sa-
marian Grand Lodge, will go by
the way of Hamlet. Let those
from this city take advantage of it..
The Carolina Central. Railroad has
the best Superintendent in the State,

Mr.. Gorham advised that we have
no negro party and no white mans
party, but his friends who got up
the party to go to Smithville, at the
expense of the Government, in q
Government boat, did not invite a
single colored gentleman. There
were three colorcd editors in the
city, and other prominent colored
men.

A Hostile Band, Under Ju, In
camped Close to Carralites,
Mexico.
Indians Well Supplied with
Arms and AmmuiIiOn-Fears
of an Outbreak.


Special to Chicago Evening Telegram.
CARRALITAs, MEXICO, October B.
The Apaches, underJ u, are encamped
few miles from here, and although
nothing has yet occurred to provoke
an outbreak one may occur at any mo
ment. Ju has prevented all the Of.
forts of the troops to surround, aud
thus guard him, and asserts that he
desires peace, but will interpret any
movement indicating suspicion on the
part Of the Mexicans into a declara-
ton Of war, and act accordingly. The
Indians are well supplied with horses
and ammunition and are in good
shape for a campaign. They come
into town IN small numbers to trade,
and lately have made a habit of COM
ing in at dusk and staying all night.
Chato, Mana and Geronimo, Apache
chiefs who we're supposed to be AZ the
San Carlos reservation, New Mexico,
are with Ju, and the Casas Grandes
are expecting an attack in retaliation
for the fight Of last year, when the
Apaohes were beaten. One of the
Apaches reported that Charlie Nc,
COmas, whose fate has been mystery
was lost in the mountains when Croob
made his attack upon their mountain
camp.
A report that Ju is dead has beer
brought in by Indians, but is not be
heved. They say that the Apach
chief fell off his horse while drunk
and was precipitated over precipiee
lhe story is thought to be an Indial
invention for the purpose Of THROWN
the Mexicans off their guard. Th
attitude OF the Apaohes is undeniabl
hostile, and an outbreak may occur a
any moment.
