VISITORS.
On motion of Mr.. Baker, of Bamsey county,
Col Clark Thompson, president, and other Off
GERS of the State Agricultural society, inyit
ed to take seats with the officers of the conven-
ton and an informal recess was had for lntroduc-
tions. Afterwards Col Thompson was asked to
speak, and said he was not accustomed to being
so suddenly injected into a machine he-under-
stood nothing about. He was glad enough to see
in this gathering body of farmers that had grit,
backbone and nerve to move for redress of their
grievances. He was not speech maker and at
least he ought to sit here while and learn the
special subjects of their deliberations before
speaking.
Mr.. McHench, who accompanied Col. Thomp-
son, was called on to address the convention but
excused himself with thanks.
Mr. Harris, another of the party, was also
called on, and spoke at some length, happily on
the life of farmers its loneliness and their need
of association or society. He also spoke of fruit
cultivation in Minnesota, predicting that the
state may some day be as famous for its frnits
as it is now for its wheat; and
further praised the state as adapted
to the production of men and women

his sympathy with this movement of the farmers
of the state, and was then warmly applauded for
his interesting speech.
Later in the session Mr.. Judson, secretary of
the State Agricultural society, was called to the
floor, and declined with thanks tor the opportu-
nifty to make a speech.

Mr.. Tiffany, of Carver, offered the following:
ReSoI0ed, That it is high time in this country
that we revive the sterling principle of our fore
fathers, ''That the Office shall seek the man

After few remarks by the author deprecating
the too common practice of Office soliciting and
the frequent corruption attending the practice,
the resolution was adopted unanimously.

The b. SOS New York Line.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 14-The B. G. 0. is selling
no tickets by way of the Pennsylvania into New
York. Tickets are on sale by way of the New
York, West Shore g. Buffalo. An arrangement
has been made with the West Shore for doing
business between New York and Chicago. The

CHICAGO, Oct 14-The Baltimore & Ohio
Company has inaugurated asvgorous retaliatory

York city. Steamship agents were advised yes
terday that the roadSwouid pay commissions of
20 per cent. immigrant, business from both
New York and Baltimore. The immigration
rate from New York is $l3, and from Baltimore
$11 As which minus the commissions, will be
$40. 40 and So 16respectively. This action, taken
Immediately after the Baltimore 81 Ohios with
drawal from the immigrant pool, would indicate
that the polieyof the company will be anything
but conservative, as acting president Garrett
declared it would be. Railway officials in Chi
cago regard the action as the beginningsof Wig
orous fight with possible purpose Of forcing
the Pennsylvania to rescind its arbitrary meas
ures. This will undoubtedly effect the dissolu
ton of the trunk-line immigrant pool, and it
can not but result seriously to first and second
class traffic. which is already badly demoraized.
The outlook is ominous.

Farmers Not, to Blame.

The Railroad Gazette has seldom rendered a
better service to the business community than it
did few days ago by investigating the actual
condition of wheat shipments to- primary
markets during the frstnine weeks of this years
crop movement. Special publications like the
Gazette are not read by the bulk of men en-
gagged in business and speculation, and articles
of thenature of the one mentioned above GER
tainlyvdeserve to be brought home to every
counting house and every brokers' Office. The
Gazette proves by stern figures that, in spite of
the general assurance that the farmers would
not sell their wheat at the prevailing low prices,
the movement of this cereal to what is known
as primary markets-eities like Chicago, St
Louis, Duluth, Toledo and few
others-was this year larger in the
nine weeks ending at the close of the month Of
September than it had ever been for the same
period Of the year since 1879 The Western
newspapers, especially those controlled by Chi
cago corner makers, have been daily advising
The farmers to keep wheat back for higher prices.
But the farmers sent forward larger quantities
of wheat than ever, although the price was
some twenty cents lower than in former
years. They have more wheat to the acre this
year, and are thus compensated for the fall in
prices, and they want the cash. All the talk
concerning the general decrease of railroad earn
Sngs being the consequence of farmers with
holding their wheat was thus proved to be non
sense. This decrease must be attributed to rate
cutting, to the increase of fixed charges, and to
the falling off in all other branches of traffic but
not in grain traffic.

A Locomotive for Ice Traffic.

Some time ago locomotive on sled-runners
was constructed in Scotland, and employed for
drawing passengers and freight over the ice be-
tween st. Petersburg and Cronstadt An ex-
change describes the engine thus: The two
driving-wheels in the rear were studded with
sharp spikes, whereas the front part of the en-
CINE rested on sled which was swiveled, and
turned to the right or left by wheels working in
connection with an endless screw and segment
rack. From this locomotive which is said to have
run eighteen miles an hour in any direction,
the transition is natural to railroads whose
ties and track have been laid on the frozen sur
face of rivers In 1873 when the mercury stood
20o below zero train of the Northern Pacific
railroad passed over the Missouri river on ice
three feet thick. The pressure which the ice re-
sisted may be estimated from the fact that the
track was laid on twelve-foot ties, and that the
cars carried overa quantity of railroad iron, as
well az a number of visitors. About year after
similar road was built across the river st. Law
renee at Hochelaga. In this instance rough
roadbed was first leveled in the ice, then cross
beams were fitted in, and upon these were placed
longitudinal beams, which were themselves
crossed by the ties that held the rails water be-
ing pumped over the whole structure to freeze
it down.

KOERNER THE WIFE MURDERER.
The Argument Before the Supreme Court
for New Trial for Him.

The argument upon the appeal for a new trial
in the case of Koerner, the wife murderer under
sentence to hang in this city on the 3lst inst,
began in the Supreme Court yesterday morning,
and was concluded last evening Thecondemned
man was represented by Judge Claypool, his
counsel, and the State by Prosecutor Brown.
The main reasons for which new trial was
asked were thatthe circumstantal evidence upon
which the prisoner was convicted was not of
sufficient weight, and that the courts ms true
tons to the jury which tried the case
were erroneous. One of the objec-
tions to new trial made by the
counsel representing the State was that one of
the most important witnesses had died since the
conviction of Koerner, and his testimony, which
material would be lost. In his argument
upon the motion for a rehearing Judge Claypool
claimed that the evidence against the prisoner
was not of a nature to convict him of murder in
the first degree. If he had committed the crime,
it was murder in the second degree. 1t is not
expected that the Supreme Court will give de-
cision the case before two or three days.
Koerner is sentenced to be hanged on the 3lst
instant.

Proposed Black-Listine.

To tho Editor of the indianapolis Journal:
The following is the last production of the
German Telegraph, organ of the Democratic
party:
SIN many branches of business it has been the
custom for years to keep list-a list of the
names of persons who do not fulfill their bust
ness obligations, and whose word is not consid
cred good. A correspondent proposes now to
make up an accurate list of all those who adhere
to Blaine, so as to know with whom people are
dealing, for, says he, who voluntarily supports
a convicted liar, periurer and corruptionist, is
not better than he and it is well to beware of
him. The Juan is not.wrong."
Nothing more infamous has been written by a
partisan paper, and 1 think it is the German
Telegraph which deserves to be put upon the
blacklist by all Republican business men whom
that miserable sheet calls liars, perjurers and
corruptionists. GERS1ANIA.

HARTFORD, Conn, Oct 14-MaudS SIS attempt
to lower her Cleveland record of zoos, atCharter
Oak Park, this afternoon, was a failure, owing
to a high wind that prevailed and the chill at
mosphere. The first trial was nothing more than
a warmingup jog, andlthe mile wasmade in 23O
Half an hour afterwards second trial was
made. The mare was started at the three-fourtlJ
post alta jog, which was gradually increased uns
til she was going at wonderful gait and when
ego" was given she was trotting with the regu-
larity and ease of a machine. The wind was
blowing almost a, gale, but she reached the quar-
ter in 1888, the half in LOG, and rounded the
three-fourth,pole in lao without skip OF WAIVER,
The mare came down the home stretch at the
same machine-like gait but her time at the wire
was only PIPE. Its estimated that the wind
made the track at least four seconds slow. Bair
concluded not to send Maud S. third heatin
