Appeal Will Be Taken.
The case of W. F. Meader, the grain
commission man who was indicted for
selling 5000 bushels of wheat belonging
to the National Bank of Commerce
which had been stored in his elevator at
Mortified, was given to the jury yes
terday afternoon about o'clock. The
jury after being out little less than
one hour rendered verdict OF guilty.
A stay of sentence was asked for by
Meader's attorney and granted, and
the case will probably be appealed
to the supreme court. The PEN
atty for selling property received
for storage is imprisonment i'll the
county jail for a term not exceeding
one year, or fine not exceeding 81 900,
OF both fine and Imprisonment. This
case has been on trial for the past ten
days. and has attracted considerable
attention in grain circles, both on ac-
count OF this being the first trial of the
kind ever tried III this county, and also
on account of the prominence OF the
defendant, who is the senior member OF
the firm of W. F. Meader q Co., which
firm has been for number OF years
past prominently identified with the
grain trade of the Northwest.

Officials and heir Assistants VINO
Are to Come and Go.
There is some conflict of authority as
TO the time when the newly-eiected
county officers are to assume the duties
of the offices to which they have been
elected. The time for their Inaugural
ton, as given by the Whiteman law,
being the first Tuesday in January, and
according to the state constitution the
first Monday in January. The general
opinion is, however, in favor OF the time
set by the constitution. and on that date
the newly elected officials will take the
oath of Office and assume the duties
which the people have entrusted TO
them. Willis A. James, LanneS A.
Condit. John A. Peterson and Frederick

son. and Judges William Lochren and
Henry G.. Hicks will go through the
formalitv of becoming their own sue
ceSSOrS.
Except in the offices Of the clerk OF,
court and sheriff, it is not thought that
there will be many changes among the
subordinates, for in most OF the oifces
the present incumbentS succeed them
selves. Almost a new deal is expected,
however. in the sheriff's office, and out
of the dozen OF more deputies ana TURN
KEYS who are at present connected with
this office not more than two have any
hope of being retained. These two
are Jacob Rauen and Lewis G. Shep-
lev. Among the new men who Will
probably be appointed are John Peter
son, a prominent Scandinavian poiltl-
elan from the South side: James HyneS.
of Hassan township; John ward, OF
Dayton township; Henry LerouX, a
prominent politician among the French
element. George Baxter, who has the
reputation of carrying the Republican
vote of the Third ward in his vest
pocket, and Charles &. Hunt, an old
soldier and noted Fourth wa;d hust-
Ter. In the clerk of courts office, Court
land n. Dickey will take his place at
the chief deputy's desk and George

A FARMERS ..UCKY FIND.
Spanish Silver Coin Hidden in a
Hollow Beech Tree.

LA PORTE. Ind, Jan. IA few days
ago George France. a farmer living in
the south part of this county, made
lucky find under rather peculiar circum-
stances. He, in company with his son,
went out into the woods near his resi-
dence to chop some stove wood. and
commenced operations Oh an old hollow
beech tree. After it was felIed Mr..
France Glanced to look into the stump,
when he discovered a peculiarly looking
earthen jar. 1t was at once secured,
and on removing the lid the jar was
found to be filled with silver coin. The
money was of Spanish mint, andsits
date of coinage was more than 200 years
ago. A jeweler OF this city estimates
the value of the find to be near $500.
How it came to be secreted in such an
unlooked-for place and by whom will
doubtless forever remain mystery.

AN EXPLANATION.
The New Society Not a Revival of
the Liberal League.

To the Editor OF the GLOBE.
Will you pardon me for correcting an
error of your reporter in regard to the
conference meeting held at ITO Wash
ington avenue south, last Sunday even
ing? That meeting had no connection
whatever with the movement now on
foot to revive the old Liberal league,
under its new name of the American
Secular union. The meeting was called
by a few persons especially interested in
the study of economic questions from
the standpoint of the working classes.
Their object was to form society whose
sin lie purpose should be to hold regular
public meetings on Sunday evenings
for the discussion of such questions. 1t
was desired that every phase of the
labor movement-the trades-union
phase, the local cooperative phase. the
socialistic phase, the anarchlstic phase.
and every other phase of the subject
might be represented and intelligently
presented by its best available advo-
Gates. Itwas not intended by those who

to Say on the Subject.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-The following
is weather crop bulletin, issued by the
signal Office, Washington City, Jan. l,
1889. Temperature-The month OF De
cember, 1888, has been slightly warmer
throughout the Northern states, Mis-
souri,, the northern portions of Texas
and Arkansas and on the Pacific coast:
it has been slightly colder than usual in
the Southern states. The greatest de-
partures from the normal occurred in
Florida. Georgia and South Caro-
lima, where the mean tempera-
ture for the month ranged from
three degrees to five degrees
below the normal and in the Missouri
valley. Minnesota and Dakota. where 1T
was from 5 deg. to 9 deg. above the
normal. The line of killing frost has
extended southwark over the northern
portions of Florida, the first killing
frost being reported from Jacksonville
and Cedar Keys Dec. /. Precipitation
Less than the usual amount of rainfall
over the greater portion of the Central
valleys and the Southern states during
the month. Slight excuses were re-
ported in Iowa, Wisconsin, New Eli
gland and in portions of Virginia.
Georgia and Texas. Large excuses
were reported in Southern California.
and slight excuses in Northern Cali
fornia, while on the North Pacific
coast only about two-thirds of the usual
amount of rainfall was reported. in
Tennessee and the Ohio valley only
one-fourth to one-half of the usual
amount of rainfall. General Remarks
During the month of December the
weather has been Aunfavorable in the
winter wheat section owing to the small
amount of rain and snow. At the close
of the year the entire winter wheat sec
ton was in need of moisture, and bare,
except in Northern Iowa, where the
ground was covered with six inches of
snow. From six to twelve inches of
snow was reported OH the ground at the
end of the month in Wisconsin and
Northern Michigan, and from one to
two inches in Minnesota and Dakota.
