RECENTLY the sheriff in Berks county,
Pa, sold ten farms at one time at auc-
ton, larger number. it is stated, than
has been known since the panic of 1878.
No other cause was assigned but taxa
ton. 1t would seem that even in that
high tariff state the farmer doesn't get in
among the protected classes, but he
votes right along for the taxation that
gives the sheriff chance to sell his
farm. Possibly the point will be reached
in time when he will not really enjoy
that sort of thing. There are some of
that class of farmers further west than
PENNSYLVANIA.

TIE next general election in Canada
does not come Tor three years, but it is
proposed by the Conservative leaders to
anticipate it with an early special elec-
ton, in order to force the Liberals to
show their hands on the annexation
question. While they are largely in
sympathy with that movement. it is too
new a question to carry the popular
strength. 1t is like truth, however, not
the egg-crushed now, it will come to it's
feet again and eventually get into the

A FREE TRADE ASSEMBLY
The Wheat Growers Don't Want so
Much Protection.
THEY ASK FOR LOWER DUTIES.
A Petition to Congress and the Presi.
dent Asking for Reciprocity Treat-
les In Order to RAISE the Price
of Farm Produce.
Freo Commctoc Asked.

ST LOUIS, Oct. 2t-The Interstate
Wheat Growers convention met again to-
day.
Robert Lindbloom, Chicago wheat spec
ulator, made speech in which he gave the
speculators' side of the wheat question.
He said the monopolists had taught tho
society lesson that would in time make
monopoly an impossibility. That lesson was
the lesson OF cooperation. The lesson taught
by the trusts was cooperation.
There was no foundation for the cry about
over production.
In five years, while the production OF
wheat decreased 2lS per cent, the price de-
creased 2S per cent. Tho speaker then went
on to show that there had been no over pro-
ducton in other countries.
President Colman, ex.commssioner of ag-
riculture, then addressed the convention
from the free trade standpoint. Ho de-
nounced the way the farmers are used by
the present administration and the pro-
tective policy and said tho only way to pro-
tect their interests was to adopt free trade
He assailed the elevator combines, pools,
commission men and spectators as robbers
Of the farmers.
The committee on resolutions then pre-
sented resolution "that the farmers of the
states lying IN the Mississippi and Missouri
river valleys, and of the states of Oregon,
Washington and California, in national con-
vention assembled hereby memorabilia con-
gress and the president of the United States,
and most seriously petition them to make
such reciprocity treaties with those foreign
nations to whom we shy our surplus farm
products as will cause such foreign
nations to remove the customs from our
farm products shipped abroad, thereby caus-
| ing US to receive a higher price upon all that
we sell at home; that we ask that such steps
be taken by our national congress Will
destroy the present existing monopolies and
prevent the formation of others, so that we
may get our farming implements cheaper;
that the present laws be repealed that place
| duty upon farming implements or the raw
materials used in their manufacture"
An animated debate followed, which was
decidedly political in its character.
| The free Traders greatly outnumbered the
protectionists and the resolutions were finally
adopted by q large majority.
During the afternoon perm inent orgaui-
zation to be known as the Interstate Wheat
Growers association was formed with N. j.
Colman as permanent chairman. Among
other resolutions adopted was one request

let him see me. Let mo 60" The request
was complied with, but the curiosity OF tho
visitor being aroused, he started an investi-
cation, bringing to light one OF the most de-
plorable of all stories.
Last week there arrived two girls, one
about eighteen years of age and the other
nineteen or twenty, The older was n blonde
and the younger brunette, and both ex-
ceedingy attractive. They were of a retir-
ing disposition and evidently respectable,and
at once being taken TO the house referred TO
they entered upon life OF shame even while
the blush of modesty mantled their cheeks
at the rude remarks made in their presence.
Both girls came here from Omaha, ard
their stories, which they hesitatingiy tell,
are sad in the extreme. The names gwen,
undoubted fictitious ones, are Maud Sheri-
dan and Arabella Russell Four months ago
young man of estimable family waited on
Maud, showing her every polite attention.
His intentions were, it proved, of the basest
character, however. One night the young
people went to the theatre, afterward taking
supper. The unscrupuous young man
drugged some wine, of which his companion
partook rather freely, and next day she
awake in road house some distance from
the city, q ruined woman. The ruin of the
girl known as Arabela came about in a SIM
liar manner in this instance drug clerk
taking the girl in the country and drugging
her.
A short time ago the two girls ran away,
their sense of shame being two great to bear
among familiar surroundings. The sister of
Maud had known in her girlhood a woman
now residing in Leadville and keeping one of
the most widely known 'resorts" in the city.
Becoming possessed of this fact, the two
girls decided to come to Leadvillc, and did
so, writing the woman they were coming to
visit. The latter met them at the depot, and
stated that she had secured them quarters
at the Hotel Kitchen. They insisted, how
ever, on going 20 the residence of their new
found acquaintance, and were, after much
hesitation, taken there.

Terrible Fate of a Party on Lake

KINGSTON, Ont, Oct A.-TSpecial Tele-
gram TO The BEE. The steamer Quinte

Mrs. Christie, mother of the captain.
Cyrus Christie, the captains son.

The origin OF the fire ID unknown. The

aster show that the fire originated in the

limb out OF the engine room, though not
htil he had been severely burned. The
rescued man is unable to talk. 1t is supposed
that Captain Christie and his brother were
burned TO death while trying to save their
mother, who was an invalid, and the lady's
maid and boy. Although it was early,
hardly later than 8 o'clock, the mother,

PARIS, Oct. 24-lNew York Herald Cab
Special to The BEE.l-The fifteen OF
portunist and radical journals which criti-
cised and protested against the declarations
of Leon Say have with as uuch energy
applauded and approved the discourse au-
nouhced by Ribot on Sunday at Saint Omen.
Leon Say had declared himself in favor of a
resolute moderate policy, which, according
TO his idea, would be of such a nature as
rally of certain number of conservative
members of the right. He declared himself
an adversary Of any further concessions to
radcalism, but he did not give as his
opinion that the wisdom of the
radicals must not be counted uDon to sus-
tain moderate cabinet. Ribot, on the con-
trary, was in favor of republican conccn-
tration. He rejected the idea OF any conces-
sion to the right, especially IN concentration,
with scholastic and military laws. He
states that the future cabinet must rely
upon q united republican majority, and he
expressed confidence that the radicals would
temporarily recounce the political portion OF
their reforms and give adhesion to busi-
ness programme upon which all the repuDli-
cans could agree
Ribot's speech is an exact expression OF
the luea wnlcn actually dominates tne up
portunist party. This party desires to
continue the policy of concentration-tha is
to say, the policy of the old chamber. He
only hopes that the radicals, whose number
will be diminished, will be less exigent than
in times gone by; that they will make the
life of ministeries somewhat less hard, and
that they will no longer unite with the right
In order to overthrow successively all
cabinets.
This hope in the conversion of the radicals
to moderate policy has always oeen the
chimera of the opportunists and all the
faults committed have not had any other
origin. Another trial will probably be made
ofthis same policy. 1t is to be doubted
whether Ribo5, If he forms part of the next
ministerial combination, will succeed better
in his attempt than Jules Ferry or De Frey
clnet The late elections were very signii-
cant demonstrations in favor of a moderate
and conservative policy. The question is
whether cabinet composed of moderates
even would be able to follow conservative
policy and seek favors of the Barodet. Gle
menceau and Camille factions.

LONDON. Oct. 4.-The Parnell commits
sion resumed its sittings to-day. Joseph
Biggar. member of parliament, VINO ap-
peared in his own behalf, addressed the
commission. Davitt addressed the commits
sion at the close of Biggar's speech, and was
followed by counsel for the London Times.
Michaei Davitt, in his speech, declared
that although no longer Fenian, If the
condition of Ireland was the same as it was
twenty-five years ago, he would be Fenian
again. Some of the aims of the Fenians, he
said, had been fulfilled already. The land
league based on the same patriotic spirit
was fast removing the barriers which pre-
vented Great Britain from giving justice to
Ireland. No agency, ho declared, had done
more to keep alive the national antipathy of
the Irish in America than the brutal lam
guage made use of by the London Times
with regard to the determination of the
people of Ireland resulting from the great
famine.
Davitt said he had not endorsed Ford's
dynamatic views and he believed that he had
converted Ford to consttu tional methods.
He denied the Times allegation that he had
started the league with money subscribed
in America for purposes of crime aud out
rage. He read letters from Germans, from
Frenchmen, Americans and Englishmen en-
closing funds and urging him to continue
the fight on the land question.

Inspector Of steam vesscIs Keport.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-The annual report
of the supervising inspector of steam vessels
shows that during the fifteen years past the
number of steam vessels in the United
States has increased from 1855 in 1875 to
6,725 in 1885, and the gain in the license OF
officers in the same period is l4,751 to 32,622.
During the past fiscal year there were
thirty-two accidents TO steamers resulting in
the loss of 30l lives, of which ninety-two
were passengers and 200 employees. General
Dumont calls attention to the great
inequalities of salaries paid to officers,
and saws the law should be remedied
either by paying all salaries alike or in pro-
portion TO the number OF steamers
inspected. He renews the previous recon-
mendatons for u change in the manner of ap-
pointing local inspectors as now provided by
law, and says If the matter is not soon
remeded by proper legislation public inter-
ests will sooner or later be seriously jeopar-
died. He would have the nomination of in
spectors made by the supervising inspector
alone and the latter would then be solely re-
sponsiDle If unsuitable appointments were
made.
Calling attention to the class of vessels
using naDhtha gas, as a motive power, and
the appalling accidents which have befallen
some of them, he recommends that all ves-
sells using such and other dangerous motors
be brought within the provisions Of the law
governing steam vessels.
