May 1.-THE following crop summary
was printed in this weeks issue OF the
Farmers Review, OF Chicago.
The heavy rains of the past week have
lessoned somewhat the former excellent
outlook for spring wheat in Nebraska
Wisconsin, Minnesota and Dakota. The
great rainfall has also occasioned some in
jury to the winter wheat in Winconsin,
Michigan, Ohio and Indiana, where, in
some OF the fields, it was beginning to head
out. The reports do not indicate, however,
any serious damage as yet. In other respects
the outlook for all the grains in all the
states and territories continues excellent.
The reports OF a poor showing for winter
wheat. or reports of injury from insects,
with the exception OF the permanent dam
age heretofore noted in various counties in
Kansas, are rare and isolated. The pres
ence OF the chinch bug is noted in Morrison.
vile county in Central Illinois and several
Indiana counties. In Indiana winter wheat
has attained q growth OF from ten to
fifteen inches, and the outlook continues
excellent. The generality OF the reports OF
Missouri indicate n crop Of 20 per cent
above tho average. In Kansas some OF
the counties nota improvement in the
winter wheat outlook within the last thirty
days. Butler is to be added to the list OF
counties where the crop is an entire failure.

provement in the wheat outlook within
the past two weeks. The reports from
Ohio are generally OF a promising charac-
ter. The reports from Dakota continue
favorable. Cass, one OF the principal wheat
growing counties in the Red River valley re-
ports that the outlook could not be i'm
proved. The condition of wheat is report
ed 20 per cent. above the average. The re-
ports from Minnesota are uniformly good.
The Nebraska counties still complain OF
too much rain, and that wheat on all low
lands is looking poorly. The general aver
age OF the crop on uplands is good.
Arrest of the Murtlerous Anarchist.
The following additional particulars OF
the capture in Chicago of Louis Lingg the
young German who is supposed to have
thrown the bomb at the Haymarket are
learned: Officers Lowenstein and Schutler
went in civilians dress to Gustav Kline's
cottage, on Ambrose street, ono going to
the front door the other to the rear.
Schulter advanced toward the young man,
but before he had advanced half a dozen
steps the latter drew aponderous a Colts
navy revolver from his breast, and cock
ing the murderous-looking weapon, leveled
thirteen inches of barrel at the officer. III
l have to die, you'll die, too" he shrieked
in German, as he placed his finger on the
trigger and took deliberate aim at the
officer. Schutler, seeing his peril, rushed
upon his would-be murderer, and a
life and death struggle ensued.
Lingg fought with the fury OF a wild
beast, and made repeated efforts to dis
charge the weapon, the barrel OF which was
held byt he officer. The men rolled over
and over, upsetting tables and chairs, and
rattling the window panes in the room.
While the fight was fiercest there was o
crash at the front end OF the cottage, and
Officer Lowenstein, who had heard the
struggle within and burst open the door,
tumbled in out of the rain, and hurried to
his comrade's assistance. The appearance
of the second officer made Lingg delirious
with rage. He shrieked and cursed in his
native tongue, and refused to relax his
grip on the revolver until Lowenstein
seized him by the throat and choked him
until mis- face grew purple and red. The
weapon, with it's cylinder filed with huge
bullets. was then taken away from him.
He was then handcuffed and taken to the
central station. On the way he said:
Wouldn't care what they did with me
if had only killed those two officers. !
tried to shoot them, and I am sorry l
didn't succeed.
