Terrible Crime of Two Disrsputable
Characters.
wnKEsBARRE, Pa, April 2S.-A house
of Questionable character at Beach Haven
was the scene of a terrible tragedy last
night. The house was occupied by three
young women, named Annie Nsgle, Kittie
Durkin and Jennie Snyder.
In the early part of the evening two Wis
itors, named Wesley Probst and DOC
Hess, called and were entertained by the
women. About midnight, two disreputa-
bic characters, Bill Bitter and Harry Mey-
ers, raped at the door for admission.
They were refused admittance, and then
broke in the door. Probst and He's came
to the rescue Of the women and Meyers
and Bitter were elected from the house.
Probst and Hess then retired for the
night. They we've aroused from their
slumbers about 4 o'clock this morning by
the cry Of fire. The house was enyeloped
in flames and soon burned to the ground.
The two men had all they could do to get
out.
The Nasle and Snyder girls jumped from
upper windows and escaped, but the other
girl, Katie Durkin, who slept in a room In
the attic, was suffOcated. The Coroner is
now investigating the affair. The suppo-
siricn is that Bitter and Meyers set lire to
the building after they were elected from
the house. Meyers served six years in the
p~enitentiary for m~anslaughter.

Reports From Six states Which Furnish a
Third OF ths Wheat Crop.
TOLEDO, o, April 2S.-Ddring the past
four dsys C. A. King & Co. have received
$500 crop reports from the grain dealers
and millers of the six principal winter
wheat States, which raise over a third oil
the wheat crop of the United States.
Ksnsas reports excellent prospects-bet'
ter than any year since 1884, when they
raised IS, COZ, 900 bushels on IN acreage Of
oyer two millions, while the acreage this
wear ia only about three qusrters OF a mil
lion. Weather has been favorable there,
and reports are nearly all better than when
the April Agricultural Bureau report was
gathered, the amount plowed MP being
yery small. Farmers there will be com
pelied 10 sell, causing a free movement
early.
Missouri has fair prospects,, a trile bet
ter than three weeks ago but sOmswhst
worse than q year ago, when they had q
very large crop. Tribe larger amount thar
usual has been plcwed up
In the other Ststes the season is back
ward, nearly q third Of the report saying
there has not been enough growing weather
to show the actual condition oil the grow
ing crop, but the msjOrity seem to think
that warm rains soon would improve the
appearance. ,
iudisna reports that nearly q quarter OF
TIE acreage has or will be plowed up; Hi
nos about q fifth; Ohio about one-eighth,
wtile it is too early to tell abons Mich'-
ga. The present prospect ia for about
| twp.thirds Of q crop in Michigan, nearly
thu in Ohio snd Illinois, while Indiana
seems to be the poorest. The condition Is
wosa in all four OF the States than 1t was
thru weeks ago. The weather has been
coldand dry and the crop has suffered,
wan rains being badly needed:
Asw Of the counties in Indiana, OHIO
and illinois say prospects are better than
a yea ago, but they are exceptions, as q
very large majority report them much
