Crop Statistics.

WASHINGTON, April 1O.-The April
statistical returns to the department of
agriculture relate to the condition of win
ter grain and of farm animals. The sea-
son for seeding was long three months in
some OF the southern states. and appear
ances as the winter set III were uneven,
though plants were rooted, and in the
states affected by the summer drought,
there was slow termination in soils not
well pulverized, causing thin stands in
such areasg hence the superficial impress
sion of the condition was made which
trained correspondents saw at once was
deceptive, and that the impairment of
status was slight and later rains i'm
proved their prospect.
In the South the soil was in good
tillage and the full growth generally good.
In the middle states the seeding season
was moderately favorable, though in some
places the soil was dry. In California,
with some exceptions, a very favorable
season for seeding and termination is re-
ported. The drought in Oregon DELAYED
the plant growth, and only partial winter
protection was enjoyed in the northern
belt.
The variable temperature of March
seriously injured the plants in the central
states Of the west and some loss from
winter killing appears even in Texas.
On the Atlantic coast, winter injury was
very slight. South of Maryland the
temperature was mild and the favorable
present appearance of the crop is quite
untavorable, as the spring is late and the
present growth of late comparatively
small. Favorable spring weather might
make a material improvement. The
average of the present condition is so,
lower than in recent years, excepting
only in 1888 and 1885, when the averages
were 80 and 76 respectively. The aver
ages of the states of the principal pro-
duction are as follows: New York, "a;
Pennsylvania, 90; Ohio, 6S; Michigan,
70; Indiana, 10; Illinois, IA; Missouri 50;
Kansas, 81. The average of Texas is SS
and of most Of the southern states higher
from 81 in Arkansas to 81 in Tennessee,
though the area seeded is small in all this
region.

The Deadlock CONTINUES.

WAsHINGToN, April 10.-All talk Of
compromising the deadlock in the house
of represe tatives has ceased. The belief
was generally expressed this afternoon
that present condition of affairs will con-
tinue until tuesday next, the day when it
is intended to call the tariff bill, when a
determined effort will be made to break
the deadlock. There is a desire on the
part of the Democratic advocates of the
direct tax bill to have a caucus called for
the purpose of determining what course
should be pursued to put an end to the
present stagnation of business, but while
It's opponents indicate a willingness to
have the caucus called for consultation
they decline to be bound by the action of
the caucus.

An Austrian Defaulter.

Denver, April lO.-A Kansas City
special to the NeloS says: The insane
Austrian, who jumped into the Kaw river
from the James street bridge on Saturday
last, proves to be a man with a history.
At first he said that his name was Meter,
but now he admits that he is none other
than Marks Morgensteru, the d~efaulttug
cashier of the banking house of Bernhard
Rosenthal, | Neuthorgasse, No. 2, Wen
ma. According to his own confession,
MorGenstern skipped from Vienna in Oc-
tober last with $4,000 thalers, and has
been fleeing from imaginary detectives
ever since. When searched about sc, 900
were found concealed about his person,
and chief of police service Immediately
telegraphed the fact to Banker Rosenthal,
and an answer is expected m%omentarily.
Among the letters found upon Morgen-
stern vas one directed to Adolph Klein,
No. 249 East Fifty-first street, Newark,
in which he asked his friend to commune
cate with the Vienna banker and notify
the latter of his (Morgcnstern's) death.
The prisoner, who is evidently a man Of
education, is apparently suffering from
dementia caused. it is thought, by worry

New YORK, April 10.-General Master
Workman Powderly has written a letter
to the knights of Labor throughout the
country in regard to hours of labor. He
advises the knights to discuss the eight
hour plan dispassionately with employers.
He says that an immediate change cannot
be insisted on, but that a practical plan
should be perfected.
He says in part that the woIkingmen
and common people generally are rulers
in cities and towns and they should at
once begin to make their power felt in the
matter by shortening the hours OF labor
in these cities and towns. The order
need not be made a political machine to
do this. The order must not be dragged
into partisan politics, but our members
should take an active part with citizens
in the discharge Of their duty at the polls
and afterwards by voting for men who
favor shortening the hours of labor of
employees in Municipalities.

D1ed On His W1fe,s Grave.

YONKERS, n. Y, April IO.-When
Sexton John Weis entered St. Juseph's
Roman Catholic cemetery in this city at
noon to-day he was Mortified at discover
ing the blood covered body of a man rest
ing against one of the tombstones. BY
the side of the body in the right hand a
large bulldog revolver rested, and on the
cross of the tombstone hung a rough car
pet bag and an umbrella. Weis immedi-
ately summoned help, and an
ton revealed the fact that the man was
August l.. 1.achume, a former resident of
Yonkers, who had come back to this city
to commit suicide on his wifc's grave. A
letter addressed to Coroner Mitchell was
pinned to the carpet bag, and in this the
deceased said that he had concluded to
end his life, and hat he did not desire to
have his son-in-law. Peter Milliot, see his
body. A bullet had been discharged
from the revolver, and this had entered
the right temple, passing clear through
the head.
Coroner Mitchell wa summoned, and
at the same time 1t was learned that AL
phopse Maynard, a machInist, of "a Pail
SADIE venue, and a friend of Lachume's,
had received a letter this morning from
Lachume, dated East Hampton, Mass,
in which the dead man announced his
intention of shooting himself, saying that
he hoped Father Lings would forgive him,
and that he desired Maynard to prevent
the burial of any of the Milliots near La
chume's virtuous wife. The letter in
closed a deed to Lachume's burial plot,
and was postmarked East Hampton, April
7, at 6 O'Clock. Lachume had lived sew
eral years in Yonkers, and was an hon
ored resident until about ten years ago,
when he was sued by his son-in-law, Mil
hot, in the city court before Judge Baird.
James p. Sanders. the well known Odd
Fellow, was attorney for Milliot, and dur
ing the trial Lachume became so enraged
at Sanders that he shot him. For this
Lachume was sentenced to five years in
state prison, and served a portion of the
term in Elmira reformatory. At the ex
p%iration of the term, Lachume, who was
a landscape gardener, was hired by the
state to lay out the grounds there, and
since then had been in business in East
Hampton, Mass. He was about 65 years
old.

A Jealous Husbands Crime.

DENVER, April l0.-An Omaha special
TO the NepS says: Sunday night Peter
Bergo. q mechanic aged At, living on
Twenty-third street between Cummings
and Burt, cut his wife's throat from ear
10 ear with a razor, and then attempted
suicide with the same weapon. Mrs.
Bergo's wound is thought to be fatal, but
the husband will probably recover. The
couple have been married nine years and
have two children. Mrs. Bergo is several
years younger than her husband and is
quite pretty. For some time he has been
very jealous of her and accused her of
being unduly intimate with other men.
Sunday night about $50 he again accused
her of infdelity in the presence of their
two little children. She maintained her
innocence. A violent quarrel followed,
and Bergo, rushing into their bedroom,
returned with a razor. Selling his wife
by the hair, be said "Nettie, d you,
I'm going to kill you" After a struggle
be succeeded in tripping her over a foot
stool and throwing her on n sofa. He
then bent her head back by the hair, and
putting his knee on her chest cut her
throat from ear to ear. Bergo then bid
his children goodbye aud cut his wi
throat, The screams of the children
brought in the police. who took Bergo to
the central station where his wound,
which was found to be only an ugly cut,
was dressed.
AT 80 a. m. Mrs. Conkling stated hat
her husband was better than he had been
at any time in forty-eight hours.

Mayor Hewitt's Message.

New York, April I0.-Mayor Hewitt
to day transmitted to the common council
a message disappearing the resolution
taking from the mayor the power of d.
recting what flags shall be displayed upon
the city buildings il it. He shows that
while the Irish born population amounts
to 1915 per cent, 81 per cent of the board
of aldermen are Irish, more that one and
one half times the normal ratio of the
representation, and that the same ratio of
representation prevails in all departments
except the police, where %. 10 are Irish
born. nearly double the normal percent
age. This, he declares, is at the expense
of the German element. He gives a tab
ulated account of the national representa-
tives in Office and in charitable institu-
tions. He states that he does not pub.
lish the tables to invoke comment, but
declares that under our free government
and boundless resources, Irish-National-
lists should exhibit a modest restraint in
claiming new privileges not known to law
and not desired by the more conservative
portion of the nationality in whose favor
the exception is demanded. He advises
the board of aldermen to adopt a measure
whereby the vexed question may be made
squarely an issue before the people.

OFFICIAL RETURNS.
The County Lost to the Demo
 crats by a Small Majority.

St. Francis county has always
 been a democratic county. 1t has
 been estimated that thirteen six tconth of tho white citizens of this county voted the straight demo cratic ticket m this election. The negro population has been increas
 ing rapidly. In fact 1t is thought they have a majority of perhaps 150 voters. A negro paper has been
 issued to them from this town
 during the past two years, and has used all it's influence against every measure, and every man, except those who were willing to sacrifice thelr dignity, and tho dignity of race, by supporting a number of negroes for office, or, as they term if, "Fusing." THE TIMES comedies to them the right 10 free action in this matter, but at the same time feels that, to elect tho negro, is an insult to the intelligence of tbe county. The local govern ment is the foundation upon which the prosperity of nation is build- ed. Nothing but the very best material should Do used in its con- struction. TIE TIMEs is willing tc admit that there were some men on the Union Labor or fusion ticket who stood we'll soclslly and
 personally. and until this campaign
 have been consistent in political affairs. But notwithstanding this
 fact. it is generally known now,
 that all former political stands
 have been knocked into spllnters, and every thing sacrificed to the greed for office. In other words tho politics of this ticket is of the most uncertain quality. It is a mixture which no political chemist has ever bcen able to analyze. In days gone by one could put his finger upon these men, and they weress there. To-day, put your finger upon them and you cannot find them. They belong to no party. They have no politics, and
 but ono platform-OFFICE. The prejudices of the farmer has been aroused against the people who
 liae in town in order to draw his attention from party afliliation. THE idea that the town people are
 working against the country people and a great many other equally
 foolish. and ridiculous points, have been so diligently urged, that the minds of the people were in such state as to defeat, as for as the county goes, platform and set ol principles directly to their inter- ests. For this reason, and it was encouraged by the wheel and negro papers, a great deal of feeling was worked up. TEE TINES soaring above and in better air, saw these things, and en- deavored, by reason, to point out a path, which if followed would | lead to happy results tor all citizens. In this labor tho editor was subjected to much vile abuse, and TIE TIMES was boycottod 10 somo extent. And tho people | were told not to believe anything | they might chance to read in a democratic newspaper. That there they would find nothing but lies. Right here let us say THE TIMEs has never made an assertion in this which has been success fully eontradicted. Not one. We have run the race with clean hands and head erect, and feel that we have done our duty. The above returns show the result of the l election. Proud St. Francis now has three negro county officials.
