Alarming State of Affairs.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-The terri
BILE mortality in this city among
infants still continues, and the
agitation as to the cause grows
violent. Since April 7 over 800
babies under 6 years of age have
died, and for the last two weeks,
have averaged ten per day. A writer
in one of the Sunday papers today
charges impure cows milk as the
great enemy to children, and boldly
AYERS that not fifty gallons of pure
milk are sold in this city daily, the
rest being adulterated.

The Crops.

The crop bulletin for the week end
ing August 18th contains the follow
ing remarks on the general condition
of crops:
The drouth, which was beginning
to be seriously felt over the state, was
broken by the general rains on the
10th, 18th and 18th, and at present
more favorable conditions prevail.
In the western division, cotton par
ticularly, was suffering from the
combined effects of the hot days, and
cool nights, and rust was being de-
veloped rapidly in many places. In
the eastern and middle divisions late
corn and tobacco were beginning to
be seriously injured by the drouth :;
millet, sweet potatoes and pastures
also suffered severely. The generous
rains, however, have greatly revived
the failing conditions all over the
state, and crops of all kinds are once
more looking up, and, with no future
drawbacks, an excellent yield will be
assured. Seeding turnips is now in
progress, having been delayed by the
dry weather. During the coming
week blowing for the fall seeding of
wheat, which has been almost sus.
pended, will be resumed with vigor.
At present the outlook is much more
favorable. II. c. BATES,

WASHINGTON.

w ASHINGTON, Aug. ~, 1900
Blaine has read the riot act to the
republican Senators, and has set them
all by the ears. He wants them to
adjourn without passing any substi-
tute for the Mills bill, and some of
them are kicking in an awful man
ner. They were having regular
monkey and parrot time anyway, in
trying to agree upon bill, but now
that General Blaine has issued orders
that they are not to report any bill at
all, they are worse at sea than ever.
There are quite number of Senators
who agree with Blaine, but a
majority are in favor of reporting a
bill. In the mean while, time, that
waits for nothing, goes marching on,
and what will be done remains in
doubt.
Representative Matson's desk was,
on Saturday, adorned with hand
some silver water pitcher and
goblets, the gift of the employees of
the Government printing Office, given
as testimonial of their appreciation
of his efforts in their behalf in having
passed the bill giving them an annual
leave of 80 days.
The fisheries treaty will be disposed
of tomorrow. OF course it will be
rejected, the republican Senatorial
caucus having so determined. Ifthis
action results in a war with England
the republicans will have to assume
the responsibility therefor.
Representative Forney thinks that
Congress will adjourn by September
10, and that the Senate will not act
on the tariff bill.
The President has committed the
sentence of the hazing naval cadets
to 80 days Imprisonment on board of
a Government vessel, and the loss of
half their annual leave. The original
sentence was dismissal from the SER
vice.
The Senate has passed a bill amend
ing the postal crimes act of June 1st
1t is very comprehensive, covering
about every case that can possibly
arise from improperly using the
mails.
Secretary Whitney has ordered the
United States man of war Galena tC
60 to Port au Prince, Hayti, and t.
remain there during the present
disturbances, to protect American
interests.
Senator Reagan made an interest
ing speech in the Senate Thursday
on the Presidents message. Hetool
occasion to show the fallacy of Mr.
Blaine's recent speech in favor o
trusts.
The report that the large appropria
tions made by Congress had wiped
out the surplus for the current fisca
year, is believed to have been started
by the republicans, in order to hav,
some shadow of an excuse TO
abandoning their proposed tarif
bill. Senator Beck says it is al
nonsense; that there will be a biz
surplus this year, as usual, and tina
the appropriations have been, will

The following dispatch gives the

JACKSONVILLE, FLA, Aug. d.
There were nine new cases of yellow
fever today, but no deaths. 1t is a
mild type of the disease. The re-
established board of health is hopeful
of stamping out the disease now that
quarantine has been established
against infected points everywhere.
The record stands, total cases 81,
deaths Sunder treatment 81. Several
will probably be discharged today.

Belva Lockwood, who is certainly the
most daring woman in this great Re-
public. Queen Victoria is said to have
expressed much surprise when in
formed that Mrs. Lockwood was again
soliciting the suffrages of the people.
"She must be very bold or very wise"
said her majesty. Just so, dear
queen. Perhaps it will be shown that
this bright, intellectual woman is the
possessor of phenomenal wisdom. 1t
will be something to accustom the
people to the thought of woman in
high official position, even if nothing
more is accomplished.
Mrs. Cleveland's indignation at the
cruel lies circulated about her domes-
tic life is in exact proportion to the
enormity of the offense. This treat
ment is a blow to the first lady of the
land who supposed herself too firmly
entrenched in the hearts of the people
to be the victim even of campaign
lies. No wonder Mrs. Blaine pre-
ferred death to repetition of the ex-
periences of 1854. Any sensitive
woman would. And now it is min
