lining the crop situation in the northwest
Planting and seeding have been delayed
by the l~ateness of the season from two TO
three weeks and very important changes
are taking place in the area devoted to the
various crops. Farmers in practically
every section of the northwest, outside
the confines of the great Red river yalley,
which is one vast wheat field, are paving
attention TO the raising of coarse grains
and less to wheat than usual. The effect
of this will be to diminish the spring
wheat and may be an important market
factor in view of the danger that threatens
the winter wheat crop Of the western and

delay in planting and seeding the Times

NEW YORK, April 20.-R.G. Dun g. Co,
In their Weekly Trade Review say: There
are higher prices in speculation but the
business outlook is distinctly less favor
able. Stocks are stronger and breadstuffs
rising with oil and provisions; but the
purchases for consumption are so restrict
ed that almost every important branch of
manufacture feels the check. The vol
ume of business recorded in bank clear
ings outside of New York is smaller by 6
per cent than at the same time last year.
With a decline of over 2h per cent at
New York the prices of manufactured
products and chief materials tend down
ward so that in spite of q material ad-
vance in speculative prices since January
1st and in vegetables, the average of all
prices is a shade lower than at the opening
of the year. Reports Cf injury
to wheat evidence that the backward
spring has limited sowing, and the belief
that the death Of the German emperor
will lead to war-all influence the bread
stuffs market TO higher prices. Wheat
has risen two and a half cents, corn two
cents, pork fifty cents per barrel, and lard
nearly a quarter of a cent, hogs thirty-twO
cents per hundred pounds and oil seven
cents. Crushed sugar has been advanced
a quarter. Weaker prices for wool, es-
pecially for the grades most largely con-
sumed, indicate no Improvement in man
ufacture. Cotton is weak. The iron
trade does not change materially. Re
ports from interior points with scarcely an
exception represent the money market as

swer a Charge of Conspiracy
NEW YoRK, April 20.-The court room
was crowded this afternoon when Miss
Ann Odellia Diss Debar, her husband,
General Diss Debar, Frank Lawrence, ST.,
and Frank Lawrence, Jr., were rear
raigned for examination on the charge OF
conspiring to defraud old millionaire
Luther Marsh by means Of bogus spirit
nal manifestations. Carl Hertz, a CON
iurer. with the assistance of his wife,
showed the court that it was possible to
make writing appear on an apparently
blank piece of paper when folded TO-
gether and held on his wife's forehead,
the trick being really one of substitution.
Madam Diss Debar, however, took him
somewhat back by daring him to try ii
with o on her forehead and when he
consented marking the sreal blank sheet
by tearing a corner off it. The opposing
counsel, however, neatly shifted the joke
upon her by remarking that she was evi-
IDENTIFY well acquainted with the TRICK.
Mai. John Randolph, who secured her
confidence and engaged her TO appear In
public and then exposed her, went over
the story of his negotiation, lie also said
she made love To him and told him how
pretty he was. The reasons for his regard
for the madame were of such a nature
that he was unwilling to explain them in
open court, so he whispered in Judge
Rilbreath's ear. The court decided the
statement was unfit to come out in court.
Gen, Diss Debar frOwned and
said. "Oh, you scoundrel." Lawyer
Marsh, the deluded victim, then enter
tanned the spectators With selections from
q note book filled with communications
from spirits. one message from Peter
the Apostle of sixteen pages was written,
MIR. Marsh said, in two minutes. 1t took
fifteen minutes to read it and was a fairly
GOOD sermon. St. Anthony, of Padua,
was also heard from. Mr.. Marsh de-
clared his belief that the communications
really came from the ancient worthless
whose names they bore, through Nine.
DiSs Debar, as did the portraits Of Shakes
peare and Claudius, the Roman emperor.
Adelaide Nelson, the actress, notified
him in advance through the medium that
he would receive Shakespeare's portrait,
Carl Hertz, the magician, was recalled to
show Ii the writing could be made to APP
pear on a blank pad. 1t was done by
changing the blank pad for n written

not see him make the change. Frank
