The corn in Audubon county will
average fifty bushels to the acre, as we
are informed by persons who are in po-
sition to know. The spring was damp
and backward and the people subjected
themselves to great deal of worriment
but the seasons have been tempered to
our needs, as they always are, and the
most favorable fall season has been
youchsafed to Iowa, permitting back
ward crops to rlpen and attain complete
maturity. 1t is idle to worry over crops
well planted and cultivated in Iowa.

The Sullivan-Mitchell Fight.

LONDON, March 9.-The Sullivan Mitchell
fight has been postponed on account of a
squabble. 1t will probably take place on
Monday.
ALIENS. FRANCE, March 9.-Both Sullivan
and Mitchell are here, but the gems d'arms
and English detectives are watching their
movements closely. Plenty of wrangling
has marked the proceedings so far, and the
announcement that the fight was postponed
caused no surprise. There seems to be
general feeling that some squabble will come
up and that there will be no fight at all.
Sullivans friends say that Mitchell is in
wretched condition and would stand no
show.
PARIS, March 9.-Kilrain and number of
American and English sports, arrived in
Boulougne yesterday. They went to-day to
Amions and thence to Hotteville, near
Rouen. The fight between Mitchell and
Sullivan was arranged for to-day. No news
of the result is expected until 10 o'clock.

reduced to mass of ruins. scarcely house

reported to have been killed by falling
buildings. Many of them were buried un-
der the ruins, while the number of injured
is too large for computation. Yamen was
destroyed, the magistrate ecaping with
slight injury. At the prefectural city Of
Lamon the effects of the earth
quake were scarcely less destructive.
In this place, when the shock was being felt,
an enormous chasm opened in the earth and
water was thrown out from the depths. At

been caused in the appearance of the coun-

An Order Issued Calling for Another cleo
ton.
LEoTI. KANSAS, March IA con
spiracy was developed here to-day, which
causes considerable excitement, as well as
derision on the part of Leoti
people. Two of the county
commissioners and the clerk of the county
made an order calling an election for
county seat of Wichita county, holding
an utter disregard for the election held
in February, 1887, which located the
county seat permanently at Leoti.
To say that the people of the county are in
dignent does not express it. The farmers
protective alliance, which elected these Off
GERS under pledge that no revival of coun-
ty seat troubles should occur, held an
indignation meeting to-day at the court
house and denounced the action. Much in
dignation is expressed from every part of
the county towards them. The farmers
organ published at Coronado, will denounce
this step in unmeasured terms. There is no
law or punishment for such action, as the
law recognizes the county seat at Leoti for
five years.

WIN Not Handle burlington Freight,


CHICAGO, March Sit appears that the
eastern roads which have announced their
Willingness to handle Burlington cars and
trouble in doing so. A train of Burlington
cars. thirty five in number, was run on the
Fort Wayne tracks yesterday and delivered
to that company to be transported to the
east The Fort Wayne yardmaster endeav-
ored to get the cars switched, but after q
half dozeh engineers had refused to touch
them he gave it up and the cars were left
where the Burlington switch engine first
showed them.
Another train of Burlington cars was run
into the Michigan Central Yards at the foot
OF Lake street to be switched to various
points, he switching engineers re-
fused positively to assist in moving the cars
No further attempt was made by the Off
clals in the matter and the cars have not
been moved an inch. The Lake Shore road
here to-day delivered to the Burlington one
hundred and eight car loads of freight, or
six train loads and experienced
no trouble. Neither the Chicago l.
Grand Trunk nor tho Baltimore
q Ohio is receiving any Burlington freight,
but this is owing to the fact that deliveries
are made to them over the Belt line and the
it. So far as can be learned the Illinois
Central is the only western company which
will continue to interchange freight with
the Burlington. Outside of the willingness
of the management to pursue that course,
the interchange Is imperative unless the
company would forfeit its charter, as that
instrument provides that it shall receive
from and deliver freight to connecting Illi-
nois roads.
