The Onion Crop.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, September %
Reports to the New Egland Homestead
from the principal onion growing sections
of country indicate short crop and higher
prices. This is true not only IN New Eng
land but in the onion fields of New York
State and the West. Prices to farmers are
90 cents to 81 per bushel, but the demand
is moderately active and growers are dis
posed to hold for higher prices. The crop
in Michigan, Iowa, Wisconsin, and through
out the West generally is very short, and
instead of western competition the proba-
bilities are that eastern onions will be
shipped West before spring.
The onion seed crop is good.

ANARCHISTS MUST STAY AWAY.
The Chicago "TImes' Gives DIR. Ayeling a
Timely Warning.

CHICAGO, ILL, September 29.-The
Times this afternoon says: ''Dr. Aveling
the English Socialist, who has come to this
country to rescue the Chicago Anarchists
from the gallOws is not pleased with the
comments ventured by the Times upon his
performances in New York. The remarks
to which this emissary of lawlessness takes
particular exception included some very
wholesome advice to himself and the 9th
er agitators that are now travelling in this
country. The Times told them very
that their presence iR Chi
eago was not desired, and
suggested that they would consult
their personal comfort by abandoning their
proposed visit to this city. This sug-
gestlon was based of course upon q pre-
sumption that they contemplated a repe-
ution IN Chicago OF their performances at
New York. 1t appears from the statement
OF DR. Ayeling that such was their in
tentiOn, and that it has not yet been aban-
doned. In short DR.. Aveling and wife,
and Herr Liebnecht propose coming to
Chicago for the purpose of melting if they
can resistance to the execution
Of their sentence passed upon their core
hgiOnaries who now languiSh in Crook
County Jail. In order to accomplish this
end they will attack the laws and institu-
tons Of the county and seek to inflame the
passions Of the vicious and turbulent ele-
ment of the community by the same meth
DDS they are now employing in the east
In word their errand in Chicago will
be to review the propaganda
Of course partially interrupted by incar-
eeration of the misereants who have been
carrying it on in the city for years past.
The Times has intimated TO these incen-
diaries that this will be dangerous bust
ness. IL has said that there is more medi-
cine in reserve ofthe last that has been
presc ibed for the haymarket assassins,
which will be promptly administered to any
who shall attempt TO emulate their
crimes. If DIR. Ayeling and his yitriOlic
spouse and their teutOnic colalierer in
the cause of Revolution" do not believe
the Times they will certainly become con-
ynced OF its truthfulneSS. should they
undertake the experiment upon which
they seem to be bent. The public senti-
ment of this community is in no mood to
tritle with fire brands of Aveling-IIieb-
kneck variety. The haymarket butchery
Is too fresh in popular memory to expect
that any latitude will be given to the per-
sons who may come hither to preach the
deteStable doctrines that bore fruit in that
horrible crime

The Gaudy Account.


OTTAWA, ONT, September 29.-Word
has been received by the Department ol
Mounted Police from the Crow Greek
Agency, Northwest Territory, that the
Blood Indians from that reservation have
gone on the war path and are devastating
about there in revenge for the killing ol
six of their band recently by the Gros
Ventres. They left their reservation, Sc
the report states, Monday morning, after
war dance, and went south to Hudson,
Northwest Territory, where they came on
a small settlement of whites, some sixteen
in number, of whom ten were women and
children. These were
ALL KILLED AND sCALPED,
the besieging party carrying off the scalps
as trophies on poles. They then continued
on their way toward the Gros Ventres set
Element. Along their tracks were many
farm houses of settlers. These were al
laid in ashes and the inhabitants killed
and scalped. Not less than one hundred
whites have so far fallen victims to the
red devils knives. Among those killed
are two Roman Catholic missionaries at the
Crowfoot Agency, whose bodies are said to
have been terribly mutilated. All the
whites at the reservation, including the
Indian Agent, have been killed.
A DESPERATE BATTLE.
After leaving the agency, about 30 miles
toward the American border, the CrOwteet
fell in with about 60 GroS Ventres and a
desperate fight ensued. The killed and
wounded on each side cannot be estimated
correctly, but it is believed the Crowteet
lost nine killed and thirteen wounded,
while over fifty fell belonging to the Gros
Ventres tribe. One hundred and fifty
ponies were captured by the attacking
party, rs well rs large amount OF cloth
ing and ammunition.
1t is estimated by the Department that
at least S25, 900 worth of property belong
inc to settlers has been burned and other
wise destroyed, while the loss of life can
not be accurately calculated.
A GENERAL UPRISING EXPECTED.
Two detachments Ofmounted police have
been ordered to put down the rising, but
it is expected that the whole force, some
800 men, will be necessary, as the Rock
les and Canada Sioux will join in the up
rising. Crowfoot, the chief of the rebel
lious tribe, is now on his way here, and
cannot, therefore, be expected to use
his influence to put down the rising. The
Hon. A. P.Carron, Minister of Militia, will
call ont a force of ut least 1000 infantry
and cavalry to go to the scene of the
troubles and assist the mounted police.
In the meantime, until they reach the
scene, hundreds of lives may be sacrificed
and any amount of property destroyed. 4
general rising of the Indians is feared.

suny,s Rendition of "HamIet. :,

PARIS, September 29.-Sully's rendition
of Hamlet which was performed in
French at the Theater Francais for the
first time last night, suggests the idea that
the madness of the Melancholy Dane
was only simulated. His treatment of
the part is very original. Hamlet's soli-
lOquy, "TO be, or not to be." " etc, deeply
impressed the audience. He began it
standing, resting against a chair, into
which he presently sank, closing the part
with his eyes shut, as if he were dreaming.
his Interpretation of Shakespeare's famous
play stamps him as great tragedian.

France Gets Bold.

PARIS, September 29.-The Journal De
De6ats, referring to the advice Of the Berlin
National Gazette that France annex Trip
oil, says: II is very natural that the Ma
tiondl Gazette should wish TO send US 10
Tripoli. II is equally natural that we
should resist the temptation to follow its
disinterested advice. Regarding Egypt
the English are dcluded IL they believe
that France is disposed to sell 50 cheaply
her claims there. II is her indisputable
right to forbid any other maritime
power from definitely seizing Egypt.
The annexation of Tonquin has created
another interest for French rendering the
naturalization Of the dues necessary.
British occupation of Egypt despite France
would produce \ lasting feeling of resent
ment and destroy all hope ol
a good understanding between France and
England for long period.
The French people hope and gladly be-
leve that the majority OF the British
people have patriotism and intelligence
enough to prevent such an eventuality.
