Corydon was greatly excited over the ap.
pearance of $50 masked men in the streets
at midnight, Saturday, bringing letters for the
county commissioners and certain county
officials. Che signal for the assembly of the
maskers was heard from the hill back Of
Corydon. They assembled from all parts,
aud riding into the town passed through
the streets in very orderly manner depos.
tied their mail in the Office and returned.
Each horse and every rider was masked.
The tenor of the letter 10 the commissioners
was to demand of them that an investiea-
ton of county officers should be made at
once, and thoroughly, Without fear or favor.
For some time past it has been known that
the county treasurer's hooks were not il good
shape, and an investigation by the commits
sioners was not satisfactory. A few days
ago it was discovered that $40 600 in, county
orders was outstanding, aud the debt of the

ing debt, is over $50 900. \ few years ago

HANGED by the presence of Gen. Mcclellan,
who commanded the Northern army in the

address, which breathes throughout the spr.

TRIAL OF CLUVERIUS.

Nearly all the evidence in the Cluverius
case is now in. The jury have heard all
that can be brought to bear on the case
The girls history has been traced back al
most to her infancy. All her love affairs
her letters-both of a friendly and senti
mental character-have been scrutinized
and their contents presented to the jury.
Numbers of friends of Cluverius have ties.
titled to his good conduct and nothing but
circumstantia evidence has been presented
against the prisoner. There are some strong
points in tho evidence, but there remains
something lacking to make really strong
case against CIuverius The failure of Mrs
Tunstall, who gave Cluverius the key be
wore, to recognize the one found, and the
testimony Of other persons that the keys
were not alike in appearance, have shaken
the public's faith in the key as evidence
against the prisoner. 1t now appears that
Miss Madison had been in love with several
young men at different times. 1t was shown
that she wrote loving letters 20 Cary Madi-
son, her cousin, and that he was an accept
ed suitor She and her cousin Tom Gu.
verius were also regarded as lovers, and
counsel on both sides spent considerable
time in comforting over the other letters
found in Lillian Madison's trunk. The de.
ceased and Emmett Williams, of Bath coun
ty, wrote to each other letters of loving
character between December l, 1884, and
March 5, 1885. There was no engagement
Of marriage between them, nor any intcn.
ton of such an engagement.
A number of witnesses for the defence had
sworn that they never knew Cluverius to
wear moustache. Eight or ten witnesses
testified that Cluverius had worn slight
moustache before March. The difference Of
views as to whether the man seen with the
woman on the car going in the direction Of
the reservoir on the night that Lillian died
wore moustacbe, has somewhat unsettled
this point in the evidence.
The court ruled that the key found at the
reservoir should not be taken to pieces. At
the afternoon session Saturday only two
witnesses were examined, and their. testi-
mony was not important. 1t was announc:
ed by the prosecution that it was possible
they might have one or two more witnesses
to introduce this morning. 1t was also an
nounced that the defence had about the
same number to call, and that then the tes-
timony would be closed. The prosecution
submitted to the court series of instruc
lions for consideration identical with those
given in the case of Jeter Phillips, the wife
murderer hanged in Richmond about IF
teen years ago. The defence also offered
series of instructions, and both were taken
by the court.

The Wheat Crop.

MILWAUKEE, June is. W. Talmadge
has prepared his first preliminary estimate
for the season by States of the probable
total yield of wheat in the United States
for 1885. The figures are made up by States
and Territories, with the assistance of the
State agricultural departments, statistical
agents and other authorities, and are stated
to be based upon the actual acreage sown
and present condition of the growing crop.
The estimate shows the probable yield Of
winter wheat as 231 100000 bushels; the
yield Of Virginia is placed at 8, 100000 bush.
els; of spring wheat 100 million bushels,
total OF winter and spring 361, 900 900 BUSH
e's. The United States Department Of
Agriculture officially reported the crop of
1884, winter wheat 370,OO0,O0O bushels,
spring 100000, total ala 900, 900 bushels.
According te these figures the crop of 1886,
compared with 1884, will show a shortage
in winter wheat of 100000 bushels,
spring wheat $4,000, 900 bushels, total 1872
100000 bushels. The average wheat yield
Of the United States for five years past is
461 100000 bushels: The estimate shows
.hortage, compared with the average five
years, of 100, 100000 bushels.
