Those farmers who examined then
corn during the time that the mer

it looked dark, as though it had beer
cooked, and on breaking the covering
found the sprouts frozen. Complaints
of this nature come from all parts Of
the country.
Such corn, Of course, will never
terminate, and it will be necessary
to obtain old corn for seed or produce
no corn. There is but little old corn
in the country, and if any can be
found every farmer should obtain
enough of it for seed. Probably a

Tin pie plates, painted with some
plaque design, are hung about the

Nearing CLOSE.

In the Criminal Court at Washington
yesterday the discussion as to the argu-
ments TO be made in closing the Stal
route trial was resumed. Mr.. Merricb
said hc would be content with the
allowance Of two opening arguments
for the government, but declined
to say what they wonldask II
regard to the closing arguments
After some discussion, during which
Mr.. Ingcrsoll intimated that if the
Attorney General wished t" speak ht
should speak at such time As would al
low him to be answered, he said If the
Court allowed the government two clos
ing arguments he would refuse to ad
dress the jury, and leave the evidence
to their sense of fairness.
The Court decided that in view of the
unusual number of counsel for the de
fence, there could be no question as tt
the fairness OF allowing the prosecution
AS many opening arguments as they de
sired, but the closing argument for the
government would be confined to ont
argument by one counsel. Mr.. Merricl
gave notice that he should ask further
decision at the proper time. Mr.. keI
then began the summing up for the gov

SECOND GAME BETWEEN TEL
CLEVELAND AND
QUICKGTEP.

! The Cleveland (League) and the
Y uicksteps crossed bats on the Front
street grounds yesterday afternoon, fol
the second time this season.
The game up to the ending OF the
fourth inning was all one sided, the
home club not having made run.
There is no question but that the visit
ing club is composed Of some of the
heaviest sluggers now playing on the
diamond. Yesterday they seemed TO be
endowed with extraordinary ability to
hit the ball, and the consequence was
that they drove the leather where they
desired.
The home club also lit on the pitch
ing of the great Bradley and at times
slngged him well, especially in the fifth
inning, when they made four rnns. Had
the Quicksteps played rs well in the
field AS they did at the bat, the game
would have resulted different. In the
tiedthey made some of them wretch
cd errors imaginable, and various were
the cpnjectures rs to the causes. Til ere
was not an excusable error made.

reputation ;ls good one, the members

The Board of Directors of this Com

not been definitely determined that this
alliance will take the form Of a lease,
or whether there will be a freight con-
tract mutually satisfactory to both

The idea of the Reading officials is to
obtain control of the Jersey corporation
so thoroughly that they will not be en-
