Farmers Refuse to Sell Their Grain.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Aug. 1.-THE slow
movement of the wheat crop is phenomenal,
the export for July being only $4,000 tons,
mostly flour. There is plenty of tonnage in
harbor, but farmers refuse to SELL As a con-
sequence there is stringency in the money
market. Complaints come from the great
wheat valleys that money has
never been so hard to get as now.
Interior banks in many cases have
refused to advance loans on wheat. As a
matter of fact the banks are unusually short.
In interviews with leading bankers it was
learned that large loans had been made to
reap the crop, which, being unusually large,
cost great deal to harvest. The scarcity of
money in New York has taken great deal
of coin out of San Francisco. A prominent
shipper said: "Last year the principal ship
pers lost not less than $5,OOO,OOO, all of which
money went to the farmers The latter
have spent the profits of the last few years
improving their farms and buying land in
Oregon and Arizona. A great deal of money
has thus gone out of the state; consequently
farmers have no money on hand, and ship
pers have none to lend, If the farmers be-
come SPECTATORS to hold their wheat for
higher prices they must run the risk of tight
money MARKET from the effect of which the
state is suffering and the only relief is for the
farmer to sell his grain"

Not So Lucky as They Thought.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug 1.-The day of
the failure of the Richmond National bank
the officers settled with heavy depositors,
whose claims aggregated $4,000, by giving
them paper held by the bank. This settle
ment-a preferment-Was attacked and set
aside by the controller of the currency, and
the receiver was ordered to call in the paper
and place the holders on a par with other
creditors of the bank. This will lead to much
dissatisfaction, as somc of the notes have
been paid, and the depositors will not want
to put up the money received for them, but
there is no alternative. A. D. Lynch, re-
ceiver Of the bank brought suit in the United
States court against Elwood Patterson: one
of the directors Of the bank, for notes
amounting to $4,000.

Bradstreetss Review.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE general move
ment of merchandise the last week has been
heavier, owing to the liberal shipment of
grain to the seaboard, but it is declining
again. kilograms to Bradstreets from lead
ing trade centers, aside from noting the extra
traffic mentioned, do not mention the special
features of the commercial situation
marking a substantial improvement. At
various points there have been some
gain in sales Of dry goods, gro
ceries, and notions from jobbers, and brighter
anticipations are indulged in respecting the
fall trade. This is true to a small extent in
New York, but less so at Chicago, where the
general drift of the merchandise markets is
not yet to a higher level in the matter.of the
volume of transactions and margin of profit,
At most of the large eastern cities the same
holds true. At a number of the cities further
west and northwest there has been rather
more activity, and a better feeling exists
among merchants,

Tilden's Dilatory Endorsement of Cleveland
and Hendricks.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-The letters from Til
den indorsing first the Democratic party and
latterly Cleveland and Hendricks have given
much encouragement to the representative
Democrats congregated here. Ii took many
weeks of solicitation to get the Sage of Ora
mercy Park to dictate a letter in the interest Of
the party, and when 1t was finally written it was
found to contain not q single reference to the
standard bearers, Cleveland and Hendricks.
Then came another season of solicitation, and
finally the letter with the Endorsement of the
candidates.
Mr.. Tilden has not so many friends in the
Democratic party as he had three months ago.
1 am told by a gentleman who stands very close
to - John Kelly, and Randall, and other leaders of
the party, that Tilden has proven himself to be
very selfish since the Cincinnati convention in
1880. 1t is claimed that he sold his best friend,
Mr.. Randall, and has proven himself destitute
of any and all sense of gratitude.
1t is charged by leading Democrats here that
Tilden has offered no aid in the present cam
paign, and that he could scarcely be induced to
write the brief letters that he did in the interest
of Democratic success.

S-HELBYvILLE, Oct 1S.-Hon. Alfred Potts, Of
indianapolis, addressed a Republican meeting at
Marion, last night, discussing the tariff as it
affects the farmers of America. Mr.. Potts is an
able speaker, and created a very favorable i'm
preston on his audience.
Tonight a large Republican meeting wasyheld
at Moscow, Rush county, delegations being
Thomas B. Adams, of this city, and DR.. G. G.
Scull, Of Lebanon, delivered addresses.
Two thousand persons attended the Repub-
liean meeting in the court house park, to-day, at
. o'clock. Hon. William II. Calkins, candidate
for Governor. had been advertised to speak. Hon.
Charles L. Holstein filled the appointment,
speaking for two hours in an able manner. His
speech was one that will do good with his hear
ers, most of whom were farmers. II. r. Shiel
followed in a speech creating considerable
applause.
All night a large mass meeting was held in
Siudlinger's Hall, which was densely packed,
many ladies' being present. John b. Elan
was the orator of the evening speaking with
great force and power.
Isaac Keith, q prominent Prohibitionist of this
city, tonight publishes a card in the Shelby
vile Republican, in which he says he proposes
to stand by the Republican party, advises his
Temperance friends to do likewise, and calls
upon his soldier friends to stand by the Repub-
lican party. Several other Prohibitionists have,
since the Ohio election, returned to the party of
progress and honesty.

-BARNEsvILLE, Ga, Oct I8.-About 1 o'clock,

Central railroad set fire to $50 bales Of cotton on
the depot platform. The fire rapidly spread,
and in two hours had destroyed four-ffthso of the
business part of the town, involving a loss of
$l50,000 on which there was very ligh insur-

6 per cent. The railroad depot, which was built
of rock and covered with slate, was not burned.
Large quantities of goods were piled in the pub

they were burned. The office Of the

The Conscience of the Country.

Philadelphia Telegraph.
TIL win notices, "Be Bold and "Be Not
Too Bold, are good things just now for Repub-
Iicans to ponder. Overconfidence may ruin
everything, and so may indifference to the last
phases of the struggle which Democratic We
hemence and desperation are certain to set forth.
But it appears manifest to us that yesterdays
work shows that an intense feeling of conscience
p~ervales the country, that men strongly feel the
importance Of the issues presented that such
convictions override personal considerations or
dates, and that as the Republican party with all
its fallts was the salvation of the Republic, so
the voters of such affiliations with practical
u%naninity are joined to defeat the proposition
to make over the government to the men who
strained every nerve to destroy it. and are more
than ever convinced that the Republican in
dustrial theory is the only one to be depended
on to assure lasting peace and prosperity. And
so the tide of battle rolls into the still doubtful
States-but with the Republicans the better
armed and the most strongly entrenched.

Like many another, the wealth of her sympathy
is turned towards others, and the strength
of her nature goes out into her
work. Perhaps after a while hen work
will be better instead of worse, as
is the general rule with modern n~ovelists. She
is a much clever and larger person than her
books, and if it is true, as has been said, that a
man cannot write a book which is higher and
better than his own nature, the rule should
work both ways, and the stream should in time
rise as high as the fountain in
this case. She has splendid health,
youth, cleverness and q remarkably rich
and varied experience and acquaintance to draw
from, and besides she has what every true novel;
lst must have-a story to tell. She has the MARI
rative and dramatic mind. She has somewhat
erred in a tendency to elap-trap in these two
novels-more in the San Rosario RANCH than
IN The Newport Aquarelle," which was
really a clever sketch from life. She has also
a touch of Bohemlanism, Of Authoritarian
delicious flavor, and making us admire the wild,
tree spirit In the young beauty giving up her
life for nobody knows why, and pouriyS her
heart and soul and mind into her books. Wit
ness this in the romantic runaway marriage Of
the lovers in the Newport Aquarelle," and in
the heroine's history in her story of Western
life.
Brought up in Boston, and living there now in
her mothers house-the centre of the literary
culture Of that literary place-she takes a plunge
now and then into the New York Bohemian set,
stays with Miss T~ilinghast in her little fat and
breathes the free air that only such clever indie
pendent people have a right to breathe. She has
lately written a play; perhaps this is going to be
her most successed field of work. She is a
woman who is going to have more more sue
cess, and one always to be loved and admired.

A FREAK.
A Thirteen-Year-Old Girl That has Never
Taken a Mouthful of Food.
Bowling Green (Ky.) Gazette.

Bowling Green (Ky.) Gazette.
Mr.. Finus Divine, of Allen county, informs
US that he has a daughter thirteen years of age
that has never taken a mouthful to eat. She is
deaf and dumb, cannot walk, but seems to be
healthy, weighs about seventy five pounds, and
crawls all about the premises and over any fence
that comes in her way. The child is feeble
minded, and is a great care to the family, having
to be confined in a close room of nights to keep
her from doing herself bodily harm and possibly
damage to others.
She is fed with milk all the time, and con
sumes from one and a half to two gallons per
day. seldom accepting a drink of water. On
ono occasion her parents starved her for five
days and nights to see if she would not relish
other food than milk, but she scornfully elected
all other bits of food placed in her mouth.
Though she is Predetermined, she makes her
wants for milk known by signs, and when her
calls are not needed she raises a terrible row
and win have her wants grati6ed or break up
the whole dairy department of the household

healthy and intellectual as any that can be

by a man named Lipphard, who assumes to represent
a Protestant secret association, and who has been sub
sidized by Democratic managers. and is now engaged
in a scheme to misrepresent Mr.. Blaine, by charging
him with utilization with the Roman Catholic Church.
Lipphard LETT Washington last night on a mission,
under the auspices of the Democratic management, to
members of the order which he assumes to represent
in several of the New England States, and in Troy,
Albany, Utica, Syracuse, Geneva, New York, and GER
tain localities in Pennsylvania. He is freighted with
all the exploded ISLANDERS the Democrats have coined
to iniure Mr.. Blaine, and will use them inscriptions
ly. Mr.. Lipphard has "a book Of facts, as he calls
it, nearly ready to be published and circulated among
the members of the order of the American Union.
If his claim does not miscerry, he proposes to distrib-
ate this book among the Protestant clergy of the
United States about ten days before election. He
claims that the order which he processes to represent
has a membership of one million and a quarter in the
United States.

The Next House of Representatives.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Oct 18.-It is an old saw here
that when an October election in Ohio gains Re-
publican members of Congress, the next House
of Representatives will be Republican. So the
fgurers havea Republican mi majority for the Forty
ninth Congress. When the Republicans have a
majority of the delegation from Ohio, they will
have a good majority in the House; but when the
Ohio delegation is closely balanced the majority
may be so close in the House that it will require
a coalition to organize.
The computors of congressional organization
matters are placing the majority of the next
House at from fifteen to twenty Republican.

skin coming with them and jumped into the
river. Then in a frenzy he started for home in

his whole body is literally cooked to a consider

impossible for him to recover.

A FAMOUS POLICEMAN.
Something About Captain Williams, New
York's WideIy-Known Police Officer.

Something Abont Captain Williams, New
York's WideIy-Known Police Officer.
Gath's Letter.
While we were talking there passed through
the room the athletic proportions of Captain
Williams, the man you so often see referred to
in the New York papers. He commands the
the district in the vicinity of the Fifth-avenue
Hotel. Said [ to an adjoining friend very we'll
posted: There is a man about whose history I
know nothing. Who is hep
Williams" said my acquaintance, us, 1
think, a native of Nova Scotia. He came at
an early age to this city, and was a calker in
the hayward in Brooklyn, and then he went
to sea, and | think was mate or something of
that kind to China. He was in the Broadway
squad of policemen many years ago. He is
to-day the best police captain on this continent.
He is an absolute unrespecter OF persons. Some
years ago Jim Bennett went to a shebang here
with his boon companions, and broke looking
glasses, smashed chandeliers, and otherwise be-
haved like a wild jackass. Williams not only
took him to the station house, but sent him
down to the prison in the common van, He was
threatened with the uerrors of The Herald.
Williams SAID: 'Tf l am afraid of newspapers
I had better resign my badge" The Herald
for years pursued him with the impotent idea
that they could destroy him in the estima-
ton of his fellow-citizens He is to-day the
strongest name in the police influences Of
New York. He never sends an officer to do any :
thing in a crisis, but goes himself. He is an
athlete, has the strength of one, and if there
SuOuIu Do u row here Oh the sidewalk D6IOr9 Inc
hotel now, and somebody should raise the cry,
Captain Williams is coming, you would see
them scatter as if a lion was at hand. Above all
men in this city he has proved his superiority of
efficiency and character to mere manufactured
claInor. The Herald has let him alone for years,
for every time they hit him they raised him a
foot higher. He is a wonderful fellow under
examination. Theodore Roosevelt, when he got
up his investigation committee on New York
city, questioned Williams closely about a
street full of cyprians. Williams
asked him after a time, if he had
been through that street, considering that his
questions were pretty sharp. Eyes" said Roose-
welt, Il went through it,
'sDidt they beckon you in?' asked Williams.
Eyes" said Roosevelt.
Well said Captain Williams, 'Iwonder you
didn't go in"
Asked whether he had ever ordered the per-
sons in a certain unreformahle house to move,
Williams said, eyes, often"
Did they moveP
eyes, they moved next door"
Williams then explained that, according to his
ideas of this social evil, it had better be kept
within precincts where it had for years lived,
rather than allowed to spread it's contagion
through respectable streets. What he had to
say was so experimental and practical that in
a little while they listened TO him with respect
