GALVESTON, Aug. 28.-The examination before
Commissioner Spann began to-day in the con-
spiracy case of Emil Francois against Governor
John Ireland, penitentiary superintendent Gore,
and five penitentiary guards. The testimony in
the case had proceeded only so far as to show
that Francois had been a convict in the peniten-
tiary for something over four years, when the
proceedings were cut short by the appearance of
United States District Attorney Stratton, who
dismissed the entire proceedings, and the prison
ers were at once released. Stratton had com
municated with the attorney general at Wash
ington with reference to the proceedings and re-
ceived instructions from the acting attorney gen.

WASHINGTON, Aug 2S.-In its political gossip
to-day the New York Herald says what seems
to trouble the managers OF the national Republi-
committee most is lack OF means. Mr..
Benz. F. Jones was elected chairman upon the
supposition that he mad unusual facilities of rails
ing money, for every one admitted that he had
no other qualifications. Mr.. Jones inaugurated
his administration as chairman by de-
posting $4,000 to the credit of the
committee the price of the honor
which was thrust upon him. In
addition to his own generous contribu-
ton, Mr. Jones has raised about SlOO, 900 among
the iron factories and furnaces of Pennsylvania,
of which S25, 900 has been given to the Blaine
organ In Philadelphia to enabh it to advocate the
protective doctrine with renewed vgor, and
SIS, 900 has been set apart for the benefit OF the
New York organ and the fedgling which the
facile Halstead, of Cincinnati, has recently
hatched in the Tribune building. Ten thousand
dollars has been paid to an Irish organ in New
York for campaign assistance, and q German
paper has been literally subsidized. smaller
sums have been expended, under the direction
OF Thomas Donaldson, who has charge of the
campaign literature at headquarters
in the purchase and circulation OF other
newspapers which have contained
articles of special merit and force The remain
der OF the campaign fund has been sent to Ohio
and West Virginia to carry nhe October elections
and a small portion has gone to Maine to be ex-
pended under Mr. Blaines personal direction
as he knows better than any one else from long
experience where the weak places and rotten
boroughs arc.
MIR ElkinS has contributed literally and the
purse string OF Mr.. VIM. Walter Phelps have
been elastic, rs they always are; but Mr. Claf-
fer's recent relations with Messrs. Grant &
Ward have not left him in a position to do great
deal. Their personal subscription and
the 100000 which Mr.. Jones raised
in Pennsylvania, constitute the fund which
the Republican committee has been
working upon, and now although the campaign
has scarcely begun, they find themselves prac-
tically impoverished. The calls for financial aid
were never so loud as now, and the national COM
mittee was never so Ill supplied with cash.
Four years ago st this period in the campaign
there was $780, 600 10 the credit Of the treasurer
at the banking house OF kountz Bros, and Mr..
Levi p Morton, who had the delicate duty then
of securing aid from the New York business
men. found no difficulty in meeting all the de
mauds OF so extravsgant spendthrift as Dorsey

from Ohio, does not hesitate to express his can
did opinion that the state will certainly so Dem
ocratic in October by very considerable major

properly be considered deciding factors in this

of Harry Wilkes over the field. In the first heat
Wilkes acted poorly and was next TO the last horse

and took the race in straight beats. He did moi

tistical agents Of the different states and terri
tories. These reports show the total production
of winter wheat to be 3SO,OOO,O0O bushels, $780, =
600, 900 more than last year. The
total spring wheat crop is 150,50OO,OO0
bushels and the grand total of winter and spring
$50, 900, 600 This makes the total production of
the country %, ,0O0,0 900 bushels more than ever
before known, and about 80,000,000 more than
the average crop for the last five years. The
departments all agree III reporting the quality
superior, and where the spriug has been finished
they state the yield has more than met the esti-
mates made This applies especially to spring
wheat sections, as in Iowa, Minnesota, Dakota,
Nebraska and Wisconsin the quality of the spring
wheat crops was never better. The spring wheat
harvest has been late, but the weather
has been most favorable and the gram is being
saved in excellent condition. The tabulated
