The Philadelphia North American
of March 81, writes up the city beef
supply as follows: The railroad
strikes in the Southwest have. had
the effect of cutting off a large sup
ply of dressed beef sent to this city
and raising the price of that which
does reach market from 81 to S1.50
per 100 pounds. Meat that sold for
"a and 7icents per pound last week
has been raised to s. and st cents,
and is very scarce at that figure
Butchers who formerly received ship
ments daily are now receiving them
only every other day. The raise will
have no effect on the retail market,
however, unless the strike continues
and the supply becomes much more
greatly decreased. 1t is said that the
quantity of beef reaching Chicago is
barely enough to supply that market
Had the strike occurred at any other
time the effect on the market would
have been much greater, but this is
the season when but few Texan cat
tie are shipped. The present supply
of beef is drawn from the country
lying north of the Missouri River
and Kansas.

Agricultural.

TOLEDO, April 2.-During the past
three days G. A. King & Co. have re-
ceived seventeen hundred reports,
covering every important wheat coun-
ty in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michi-
gan, Kansas and Missouri They say
the present prospects of the growing
crop are very favorable in Indiana,
Missouri, Illinois and Ohio, fair to
good in Michigan and poor in Kan
sas. All show an important improve
ment since the recent rains. The
prospect averages better than two
years ago. The area sown is larger
than the amount harvested on last
crop. Reserves of old wheat moder-
ate, but Michigan has over one-fourth
of the last crop remaining. Half of
the farmers are disposed to sell. The
country roads are bad.

Some weeks ago a negro named
Mingo Jack. was lynched in a New
Jersey town for having violated the
person of a respectable white girl.
The violation of the person of vir-
tuous women in all ages has been
such an offense that the monster who
perpetrates such an oftense is gener-
ally speedily disposed of by his
neighbors, and yet no law has been
passed by civilized nations of today,
making such an offense a capital
crime. Possibly the reason no such
law has been enacted is that such
cases of violence seldom occur. 1t
would be better to pass an act to
hang a man for such crime, he
could then be hung through the
agency of court and jury. Under
present laws if a fiend in human form
catches a woman and violates her
person, and is taken into court, he
cannot be hung or shot, there is no
provision of law for the execution Of
the fiend. If the law made provis-
ion for the execution of such scoun-
drels they would not be lynched.
The authority of New Jersey are try
ing to find out who lynched Mingo
Jack, they arrested constable with
the expectation of getting some in
formation from him, but the inquest
failed to find information sufficient
to bring an action against anv one.

IT is idle capital that is placed in
industrial establishments and rail
roads that give employment to thou
sands of people in different places in
the country. If the strikes through
out the country continue or be re-
peated, it is not probable that the
next generation of men will have
much to do with keeping up indus
trial establishments. What's the uss
of men who have little money past
them pooling their fund to build up
manufacturing establishments and
railroads, wher a lot of men whenev.
er they please will stop the business
by strike. Such work does not pay
either the owners of the work or the
workmen.

been given to the destruction of prop
erty. They insisted upon it that all
OF the men, rega dless of what they
had done should have their old pla-
ces. A despatch from Fort Worth
Texas, on Saturday, tells of the do
ings of the bloody strikers:
At ten o'clock this morning 1,500
people assembled at the Missouri Pa
cific depot to see Sheriff Maddox
send out train. which he said last
night he would do or die in the at
tempt. At eleven o'clock an engine
with twenty armed deputies backed
into the yard to take out train of
twenty cars. No resistance whatev-
er was offered, and the train steamed
away some time later, after getting
together the cars and apparently with
no trouble ahead The train proceed
ed to the crossing of the Fort Worth
and New Orleans Road, two miles
out, when it stopped, as is customary.
When the train stopped several men
were seen on the track in front of
train. The posse commander ap-
preached the men and asked why
they impeded the progress OF the
train, to which they replied that they
had nothing to do with it. that they
were not armed and had no intention
of interfering with the road.
As the officers returned to the train
they noticed several men sitting or
lying on the grass few yards from
the train. The entire posse advanced
toward the men in ambush until they
had reached the ditch alongside of
the track, when they commanded a
throwing upof hands. The command
was obeyed, but as the hands came
up they brought with them Winches
ter rifles, which belched forth dead
ly fire. There were, perhaps, one
hundred shots fired After the first
fire the posse advanced aud contin-
ued firing. The eambushers retreated
behind some piles of ties, which prov
ed most excellent breastwork and
from the security ofwhich they pour
ed murderous fire into the posse.
From this position they were finally
dislodged and driven beyond range
of the posses pistols.
SEVERAL MEN FATALLY SHOT.
The casualties among the posse
were found to be three:
Police Officer Ford, shot through
both thighs.
Special Officer Dick Townsend,
shot through the left breast, near the
nipple-fatal.
Special Officer Charles Sneed, shot
through the heart and jaw.
The casualties among the ambush
ers is only a matter of conjecture
though there seem to be good grounds
for saving that three or more of them
were wounded, probably fatally. The
same authority says there were half
q dozen or more horses visible from
the train that was ambushed, which,
it is believed, belonged to the am
bushing party. The posse carried
the wounded men aboard the train,
which backed into the Union Depot.

the use of tobacco Is a stumbling
block to many Christians. Mr.. Jones
on Sabbath evening, week, took oc
casion to speak of tobacco, and re-
nounced its use as follows: 'In a
hundred different instances ] have
been notified that habit that 1 am
given to is stumbling block to souls
in this city. Now, l want to say to
this congregation to night that from
this day until we meet God in heav-
en- you can tell this world that Sam
Jones has got no habit that is a
stumbling block to anybody. l have
quit chewing tobacco, and to you,
brethren, will say this: Wherever
and whenever there is q fault of
mine that will lead any soul astray,
or that is a stumbling-block to any,
God being my helper, if 1 know it,
that thing shall go down forever with
me. And if there is spot or an inch
about me that is not consecrated to
God and humanity tonight, I say
this minute, Lord God Almighty
helping me, it shall be fight from
this moment until ! die. And l pray
God Almighty that you will give mo
your prayers. 1 have had fight
that no one but God knows anything
about. / have struggled and, thank
God, 1 have the victory. Igive God
the glory, and l give you the benefit,
and may God bless you all and start
you tonight to give yourselves un-
reservedly and forever to God For
your prayers and for your sympathy
l am grateful, and if dent do any
good in Chicago, may Chicago thank
God Almighty she has done the poor
little pale Southern preacher some
good the balance of his life. )"

Next to to the concierges, perhaps the
bcggars are the greatest nuisances in Paris.
They have been augmenting SO rapidly OF
late, and becoming SO aggressive, that the
Project of Police has resolved to expel them
and has issued instructions to police SER
geants to get at the number and conduct of
the fraternity in their respective districts.
Just before they received the final coup do
batdi, the Temps has been entertaining its
readers with some sketches Of their history.
These Partisan beggars may be looked upon
as the aristocracy of the mendicant world.
Begging has become fine art with them.
They take to the streets from choice rather
than necessity. They have got q sort Of
circular newspaper to keep themselves
posted in coming events, and systematically
take different beats. Rows of them may be
seen at church doors when marriage or o
funeral is on, and they hang around the
doors of fashionable restaurants. Accord
ing to the Temps there were 2,765 beggars
arrested in Paris in 1884 and 4,138 licensed
class of beggars. The police ..have always
had power to deal with others who, on
whatever pretence, receive aims; but the
general federation allowed on fete days,
seems to have been allowed on other days
as we'll, until the condition of the streets
become intolerable.
