MINNEAPOLIS, March 1.-The Northwest
ern Miller today says: "Both ice and low
water hindered the mills during all OF last
week. and although there were fourteen
running part of the time the flour output
fell off somewhat. The aggregate produc-
ton was $500 barrels, averaging 14,459
barrels daily, against $3.50 barrels the
week before and 12S, 100 barrels for the
corresponding week in 1883. With
the prevalence of warm, spring-like
weather the supply OF water has
been rather improved. but, with the dis
position to more generally use 1t; the head
is still kept down pretty well. Ten mills
running todsy are producing at the rate
OF about 1900 barrels daily. Three
others. with an output of 800 barrels, are
expected TO start up within few hours.
This would make the daily manufacture
nearly 2o.0e0 barrels, though the daily
average for the week will be less. Six OF
the ten mills ip operation are using steam
in part for power, and the three about to
start up will be similarly situated. The
heavy decline in wheat has affScted
the f1aur market unfaverably and the
mills previous to Saturday has been cut
off. Prices of -four have been reduced zoe
per barrel, but apparently without any
effect toward inducing buyers to take hold.
In fact. millers disposed to treat the sub
ject frankly say they never saw duller
market. The direct exports OF flour for
the week were 1880 barrels, against TO-
740 barrels for the preceding week. Quo

THE>H1YTIAN WAR.

NEW YORK, March THE steamer
Andes arrived from Haytian ports this
morning. The purser, Frank Darinis
says the Andes was at Port-au-Prince on
February 4. The day before there had
been a grand review of Legitime's troops
and much jolliication because of the
recent victories over Hippolyte's rebels.
The Legitime forces had won signal vic
tories in the provinces of the north and
had driven the rebels back all along the
line. AT Grand Salene there was battle
fought and Gen. Jene Miscree was taken
prisoner, but was released on parole.
There were no executions because Legi-
time did not wish to ALLEVIATE any of his
countrymen by harsh measures. The Hip
polyte forces were driven back through
The Marmelade district as far as EMERY,
and HinChe was taken, as were St.
Michael, Valliere and st. Suzanne.
Il wish to deny" said the pnrser. "the
report that the commander of the Legitime
warship Belize had been poisoned. l saw
him alive and well in command of the
ship. The report to that effect was sent
by Rippolyte over the cable at Nicholas
Mole. So also, was the story about the
massacre of Leeitlme's generals and
soldiers, Legitime has all the navy and
the larger part of the country. No United
States men of-war were seen during the
VOYAGE"

TISZA'S ARMY BILL.

LONDON. March THE Hungarian pre-
mier has borne up bravely under the storm
of indignation and misrepresentation
which has been raised by his army bill
His political antagonists have not had
much trouble in persuading the hot-head-
ed Hungarian youth that Herr TisZa's
measure is but the beginning of a series of
edicts intended TO Germanize the Mayors
and destroy their individuality of charac-
ter and language. They have no
special liking for Russia and the
Russians, but it may be safely said that
they detest them less than they do the
Germans and everything German. The
mere hint of absorption is an incentive to
the most frantic demonstrations, and the
students do not have much trouble to con-
vince the mob that their nationality Is IN
danger whenever they wish to indulge Ia
Tisza's health is said to be failing,
and his physicians have recommended
a respite from political duties, but
there is hardly any one to take
his place. The journal in the French
tongue which has recently made its ap-
pearance in Pesth seems to have solid f.
nancial support Its political leaders are
very mildly written as yet, and the Jealous
watch kept upon it has not yet been re-
warded by the discovery OF any offensive
articles. Its circulation is, of course, linn
tied to the upper classes, but it is matter
worthy of remark that there should be
deemed an opening in Hungary for such
sheet. Evidently the paper is intended to
be medium for the correction of mis-
statements concerning France which may
appear in the journals of any dialect in
the Austrian empire and, so much as 1t
dares to increase the existing Hungarian
irritation against the triple alliance.
Probably it would not object to little
persecution as attending to attract atten-
ton to its merits and increase its prestige.
Herr TisZa'5 brother premier, Sig.
Crispi, will be compelled, in case of form
ing another cabinet, tn give a larger rep
resentation TO the left. His late utter
ances concerning the pope, and the
temporal power of the Holy See did not
produce much comment here, for his
actions had long since discounted any
language of his and he already had
against him the clericals and all others
who could be influenced by his words.
There is not much doubt that several
acts appropriating church property, which
have been long in contemplation, will be
passed at no distant date, for ouher sources
Of revenue do not seem to be available,
and the people are revolving Against the
enormous taxation to which they have so
long been subjected.

a LEATHER MEDAL
DakotanS Elegant Tribute to Congressman
Springers Work. :,

HURON, S. OAK. March IA number
of gentlemen have forwarded to
William N. Springer a souvenir in the
shape of leather medal six inches in di-
ameter on which is the following inscrip-
ton in gold letters: "To William
Springer, who, having been so instructed
by the house of representatives, rather
than be in contempt, sacrificed his own
principles and maganimously opened the
pathway TO statehood to South Dakota.
Fiat justitia. Ruant principa."
The medal was sent to Hon. Sunset Cox,
with request that he present it to Mr..
Springer with the following letter:
To the Hon. VIM. NJ. Springer. u. c.. Washington
d. c.:
A few of the host of your Dakota friends,
approaching thoroughly your truly noble
and thoroughly disinterested services in
behalf of South Dakota, desire to present
to you this testimonial of their esteem.
We remember with what poignant anxiety
OF grief you gave up the cherished plans of
your heart. How many sleepless nights
you passed as nobly and alone you fought
for all those vital issues without which
hope would have been lost and
Dakota dream. How single
handed you fought the five enemies
of Dakota in conference committee and
said: Live or die, Survive or perish Tor
words to that effect, though l give up
everything, still will cling to the cher
ished object of my heart. Dakota shall
again vote for the temporary capital or
she shall forever remain a territory No
blest OF thy race! whenever the return
ing sun shall again bring round the birth

statesmanlike character of him whose

of the crew. He reports that at
o'clock on the morning of February q by
the sea breaking over the vessel and ter
ribly raging of the waves from the south
east the crew was compelled to lash them
selves in the rigging to prevent being
washed overheard The heavy sea pre-
vented the men from lowering the boats as
each was dashed when launched. Two
seamen attempted 10 swim ashore with
lines but were lost. The vessel grounded
100 fathoms from the shore. Officers and
crew remained in the rigging all morning
waiting for the sea TO subside. The after
house was torn away and made into RATS

The vessel had rope secure to the shore
and tried to get the men ashore BY
night everybody except Captain Gibbs,
who remained on the wreck for thirty-siX
hours, had got ashore. No clothing or pro-
visions were saved. An Indian village

MINNESOTA AND DAKOTA WHEAT

ST. PAUL, MINI, March THE move
ment of wheat from farmers granaries in
Minnesota and Dakota is materially less
than few days ago. During the first
half of February there was very little
moving, but in the last half the move
ment was the largest of the winter. There
is a large stretch of country in Minnesota
west of Minneapolis, extending from the
Northwestern road on the south TO the
main line of the Northern Pacific
on the north, where the bulk of the
selling was done. There was activity
in localities outside of that as
there were places within where there was
very small movement. Most lines report a
sharp falling off in receipts. Whether
there is to be another squirt will depend on
the weather. The late spring DAYS have
called farmers TO prepare for seeding in
some spots, and ut several places it is said
little wheat has goue into the ground. II
the weather should continue favorable for
a week or TWO considerable might be done
IN some localities. 1t is expected that a
larger area viii be seeded 10 wheat than
last year. owing 10 the TemUneratlve
prices received for the last crop, especially
if the weather should permit it to go in
early, reducing frost probabilities to the
minimum
