WHERE'S THE oWNERf

A Find Phat May Bring to Light Foul
Crime-Where Is A. ID. Treadwcu1-Vai'
liable Matter TO be Lying Around Loose.
Fort WORTH, TEX, June 12.-In ex-
cavating yesterday workmen exhumed an
old brown pocket-book In good state Of
preservation which contained papers
covering transactions aggregating nearly
800, 900. Among the contents are certi-
ficates of deposit in the Waco National
Bank and HrI National Bank amounting
to several thousand dollars; also prom
isory notes cancelled, aggregating over
$40, 900. Besides these were bills OF ex'
change amounting to IS, 900. The certt
ficates of deposit are in favor OF A. ID.
Treadwell. The bills of exchange are
also drawn in his favor. Treadwell Is
prominent cattleman of this (H1l)
County, and at the time OF losing,
or being robbed of his pocketbook was on
his way to attend Cattlemen's Conven-
ton at st. Louis, for among the contents
of the pocketbook is a round trip ticket
issued by the Missouri Pacific and dated
November S0th last, and used only as lar
as Fort Worth. The find is shrouded In
mystery. If Treadweil had lost such
valuable package, the query is, why was
the matter never reported to the policer
The pocketbook certainly had been
buried. Ten thousand dollars could
easily be realized on the certificates ana
bills, and experts pronounce them genu-
Inc. kilograms have been sent to Tread.

HlBBS' WHEREABOUTS.

The Smart Idaho Postmaster in British
Columbia-Obstacles In the Way of His
Extradition.
WASHINGTON, D. c., June 1.-THE
Postofice Inspectors who have been pur-
suing Hibbs, the defaulting Postmaster
of Lewiston, Idaho, have discovered
that he is at Farewell, a town $50
miles distant from Victoria, British
Columbia. As he is accompanied by his
family, the Inspectors have little doubt
of being able to arrest him. 1t is
probable that an attempt to effect the
extradition of Hibbs will be involved in
difficulty, and raise nice point. He
could not be held for embezzlement, as
that ofense IS not covered by
exististing treaties with British Column
bia; nor forgery, as he was acting in his
capacity of Postmaster when he drew the
fraudulent money orders. 1t is hoped
that he may be held upon the charge of
stealing letters addressed to another per-
son. but this again involves a nice ques-
ton. The letters Hibbs took from the
pouches were addressed to one Davis,
which was name assumed for the pur.
BOSE by himself.

WEST POINT, June 12.-The post has
been thronged with visitors all day. At

lighted by electric lights. After supper
the German was begun. The favors
were distributed by Mrs. Endicott, wife
of the Secretary of War, and others.
Among the ladies in the dancing hall
were Miss Stanley, daughter of General
Stanley; Miss Elliott, daughter of Bishop
Elliott, of Texas; Governor Hoadly's
daughter; Miss Blount, daughter of a
member of the Board of Visitors; Miss
DeRussy, daughter of General DeRussy;
Miss Brooks, daughter of the Chief En-
gineer of the Navy; Miss Bessie Han
cock, niece of General Hancock; Miss

tendance the Secretary of War, General

officers and professors of the post, and q
number of gentlemen from New York,
Brooklyn and Philadelphia.

WORSE AND WORSE.
The Results of the Recent Cloud Burst in
Mexico Worse Than at First Reported
Over Two Hundred Lives Lost.

The Results of the Recent Cloud Burst in
Mexico Worse Than at First Reported
Over Two Hundred Lives Lost.
Ell PAso, Tex, June 1O.-At Lagos,
Mexico, the loss of life and property by
the water-spout that occurred on the
evening of the 9th inst, proved to be
greater than at first reported. At Pueblo
and Curanto, for instance, the rushing
waters rose within few minutes more
than twenty-five feet. This tremendous
food swept verything before it, and at
that place alone over two hundred lives
were lost. Another large city suffered
Monday night by a water-spout.
Guanajato was flooded and a great deal
of property destroyed. The water-spout
first burst at Presa, about mile above
the city, the center of which soon had.
some six feet of water in the streets.
That evening complimentary amateur
performance in honor of Governor and
ex-President Gonzales, was given at the
theater, and the building was crowded
with the elite of the city. When the
alarm was sounded about half-past ten,
a wild panic ensued in the theater that
beggars description. A rush was made
for the doors, during which many people
were injured.
The office of the Singer Sewing Ma
chine Company had six feet of water
in it, and many other prominent build
ings suffered in like proportion.
The loss is estimated at 100000 at
the very least. The principal sufferers
as far as known are D'Bregon & Co.,
Lorenzo MARQUEE and the Singer Machine
Company. 1t is not yet known how many
lives have been lost.

A BAD EXPLOSION.

A Famous Mexican Silver Mine Blown Up
and Ten Persons killed-Everything
Around Wrecked.
ZACRCATAs, MEX, June 12.-Twelve
miles from Zacecatas is situated the cell
ebrated Santo Tiburcio de Laveta Grande
mine, that has produced ever since the
Spanish conquest, yielding untold mil
lions of silver during that time. Within
the past few years it has been newly de-
veloped and fitted throughout with the
most costly modern machinery. The
work of recovering and reopening all
portions of the great mine has been in
progress, and was approaching compile
ton. Large quantities of timber and
other material, including blasting pow
der, had been kept on hand, and yester-
day morning an explosion occurred which
was plainly heard at Zacecatas. Five
cases of giant powder had gone
off by some means unknown. Ten per-
sons were killed outright and as many
more seriously wounded. The mine and
everything near it was a complete wreck.
The surface improvements were totally
DESTROYED.

dItton Of the Cotton Crop-Winter Wheat
Very Low; Spring Wheat Favorable
Other Crops Fair.
WAsHINGToN, D. c., June 1.-THE
June crop report of the Department of
Agriculture will show an Increase in the
cotton area of from five to six per cent.
Virginia, lot per cent; North Carolina,
1O2; South Carolina, los; Georgia, lO4;
Florida, l02; Alabama, 1o3; Mississippi,
LOG; Louisiana, l07; Texas, no; Arkan-
sas, l09; Tennessee, 100. The total
area exceeds eighteen million acres. The
The plant is healthy; growth nearly
average; the stand good. Where recen {
rains have been excessive the crop is in
the grass, and the general average is 90,
which is higher than in the three proceed
ing years in June. There is an unusual
uniformity in the condition, only Tennes.
see showing less than 80 per cent. The
State averages were: Virginia, 90;
North Carolina, SO; South Carolina, So;
Georgia, 95; Florida, 50; Alabama, 90;
Mississippi, 90; Louisiana, So; Texas,
so; Arkansas, 81; Tennessee, SIS.
The condition of winter wheat is re-
ported lower than ever before in June.
The general percentage has declined from
20 in May to 60. The averages of the
principal States are: New York, 81;
Pennsylvania, 81; Ohio, 81; Michigan,
"a; Indiana, So; Illinois, 40; Missouri,
50; Kansas, Sc; California, So. In some
States there has been greater loss of
area than was anticipated in the previous
report, and the average yield will evil
IDENTITY be less than ten bushels per acre.
The probable product of winter wheat
States, according to these returns, is re-
duced to about POI, 000,000 bushels, but
none of the Territories are included in
the winter wheat area.
The report of spring wheat is more IA
vorable. The disposition last autumn to
reduce It's breadth on account of the
low prices was checked by the loss OF
winter wheat area and, later by the Brit
ish- Russian war rumorS, and SubStanti-
ally the same area has been seeded as in
last year. There are but eleven million
acres in Northern New England, Wiscon-
sin, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, and all
the territories. The percentage of last
years area is IS in Wisconsin, 80 in Min
nesota, 1O2 in Iowa, 9S in Nebraska, and
103 in Dakota. The condition of Spring
wheat is 81, and indicates crop of
about 153, 600, 900 bushels. The average
for Wisconsin Is ss, Minnesota, "a; Iowa,
100; Nebraska, 102; Dakota, 10l. The
present report, therefore, indicates a
wheat crop of $50, 900, 900 bushels, 33, 000,-
600 bushels less than that of 1884.
The general condition of rye is SO.
The area of barley is nearly the same as
In 1884, and the acreage of condition is
80.
The acreage of oats has increased four
per cent, and the average of condition Is
"a.
Corn will be reported in July, but vol
untary returns indicate an increase OF
area.
