For State Senator.

The Democracy of this comfy will
present the name of w. w. Sutton,
Esq, as one of the candidates for the
nomination for State Senator at the
coming Senatorial Convention to be
held at Napoleon on. the 10th of Sept.
Mr.. Sutton is young man of fine abil-
ity, strict integrity and sound Democ-
racv, three qualifications that should
certainly commend, him to the support
of the Democracy and people of the en-
tire district. He'is we'll and favorably
known, for young man, throughout
the entire district, and will no doubt re-
ceive a handsome vote from nearly all
the counties composing the district.
He is an able speaker and an active and
energetic worker, and if nominated will
do his full share of the work toward
having the district send two Democrats
to the State Senate, thus aiding in Sc
curing Democratic majority on joint
ballot in the General Assembly, which
will be very important matter as the
coming Legislature elects a United
States Senator and redistricts the State
for Congressional purposes. Putnam
county will give Mr.. Sutton its solid
vote in the Convention, and if made
one of the nominees will give him 1000
majority at the November election

GRAHAM'S SHORTAGE.
THE STEALING OF WARREN COUN-
TVS AUDITOR DAILY IN
CREASING.
Now Estimated To be Nearly $500, 900
- Treasurer Coleman Arrested =
Others Implicated.

LEBANON, O., July 20.-This place
has been in whirl of excitement since
Saturday last, when AL. Graham, the
county auditor, disappeared. About
the middle of last week it became
known that Auditor Graham had over
drawn his account S., 900. 1t occasioned
little surprise and no alarm, as it was
supposed to be merely a technical af-
fair. Graham asked for an investiga-
ton, hired a band, serenaded his
friends, and borrowing $100 from his
brother, disappeared. The investiga-
ton has progressed far enough to show
that Graham's speculations may reach
$50 900, not counting the possibilities OF
a number of county bonds, which he
may have disposed ofin the east. Dur
ing the investigation it became appar-
ent that the treasurer was very negli-
gent of his.duties in paying such sums
without investigation or was in collu-
sion with Graham.
The committee Thursday night de-
cided it was the latter and just after
midnight g. f. Coleman, county treas
urer, was arrested, charged with the en-
bezzlement of $4,000. He was released
on $25,000 bond. 1t is quite sure that
others are guilty or cognizant of what
was going on and will be arrested. A
competent authority says no one will
be surprised if, when the bottom is
reached, it is found that the county has
been robbed of $25O,000. The treasurer's
office is closed and no taxes are being
received or bills paid. Graham has
been one of the most popular men in
in this section of the State, and a plen.
tiful supply of money was accounted fol
by the success of patent medicine he
extensively advertised and which he
claimed was making his fortune.
A nice legal question has already
arisen as>to whether the bondsmen Of
Graham or Coleman are responsible fol
the losses. Coleman's bond is $3.50, 900
Graham's only $1,000.

GOOD; FOR CHANGERS.
THE OLD WORLDS LOSS WILL
PROBABLY PROVE THEIR
GAIN. .,
Europe's Short Wheat Crop Will Put
Money in American Farmers Pock-
ets

WASHINGTON. July 18.-Statistician
Dodge of the agricultural department
has about completed the June report
which is the most important OF, the
year as showing the general condition
of crops the world over. The foreign
agents of the department report pros
poets for large shortage In the wheat
supply of Europe and India, which will
insure to the benefit of the American
grower by creating an increased de-
mand for his wheat. The Russian win
ter wheat has been failure on account
of the extreme cold weather and the
report of the spring wheat based upon
information from over 1000 correspon-
dents Is extremely gloomy. In Aus
tralia-Hungary the same discouraging
outlook exists. A well informed Vien-
ma correspondent anticipates reversal
of last years crops in the principal
wheat growing countries of the world;
that the comparatively poor crops of
1888 in the United States, Great Brit
ain, France and Germany will be aug
mented this year and that Austria Hun
gary and Russia, well favored in 1888,
will fall below the average in 1SS9-a
compensation of nature which will
work no good to Austrian and Russian
finance. In India the crop has been
harvested and Ia about 10000, 900 BUSH
els short. AS Russia and Austria Hun
gary furnish most of the surplus wheat
for Europe, and as the crop in India
has been unusually small, the agricul-
tural department is of the opinion that
there will be an unusually large de-
mand for American wheat this year.
Mr.. Dodge says from the present pros
poets the United States will be able to
supply any shortness that may exist in
crops abroad. Winter wheat has been
made in this country and reports are
gratifying. The prospects for spring
wheat are not so good, but thus early in
the year no reliable estimate can be
placed upon it. The reports from the
middle States, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois
and Michigan is that wheat is much
better than last year, the average being
about 80. Spring wheat is still liable to
great many contingencies. In Da-
kota, the great wheat growing country
of the west, the returns are very un-
favorable on account of drought, the
prospect having fallen of from 8S to 81
during the last month, or about one
third, Mr.. Dodge concludes from the
shortness abroad and poor reports from
Dakota that the farmers of the middle
States are liable to reap very material
benefit from the increased price.

BRYAN, O., July 1.-The most hor
rible tragedy ever reported from vii
liams county took place near Edgerton
o., about O'Clock this morning. Fol
vindictiveness and atroclty, it has but
few parallels in the annals Of crime, anC
has caused thrill of horror throughout
the community.
Hiram HoadIey of Edon murdered
his wife and his father-in-law, Mr.
Newman, after which he attempted the
murder Of two other members of the
Newman family, but who were for
tunate enough to escape from the
clutches of the frenzied man.
Mr.. Newman then committed sui
eide by shooting himself through the
head, and the bloody tragedy was com
plete. s... ....
Mr.. Hoadley had secured three re-
volvers with which he evidently in
tended to kill the entire Newman
family.
He leaves a family of four children
by former wife. Domestic trouble il
supposed to be the cause of the hellisf
deed. ,.
ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS.
The Bryan correspondent to the
Cleveland Leader gives the following
version of the thrilling crime:
A terrible tragedy was enacted al
Edgerton, this county, to-day. About
three years ago Hiram Hoadley, jr.
married Miss s. E. Newman, daughter
of farmer living near Edgerton. Dur
ing the lapse of about two years some
unpleaeantness grew up between Mr.
Hoadley and his wife, which led tx
temporary separation, but last Septem
ber they again began to live together a
husband and wife. and the suppOsitior
was that their difference had been re
conciled. At the last term of common
pleas court of Williams county Mrs
Hoadley applied for divorce and ali
money, and in the meantime had lef
her husband and returned to her faith
er's house near Edgerton.
This morning at about 6 o'clocl
Hoadley secreted himself near tn,
premises of Mr.. Newman, and the yer,
first one to fall a victim to his plot wa
the wife, who was in the act of goinj
out to milk the cows. Hoadley seizet
her with his left hand: and with hi
right fired three shots into her breast ant
left her for dead.
4 Mr.. Newman heard the reports of tn
4 shots and started in the direction of tn
barn, when he met Hoadley, who a
once shot the old man three times il
the breast, one llpassing through tn
heart. Hoadley then pursued tn
mother and younger sister of Mr.,
Hoadley, and but for immediate ali
would have killed them also.
4 Hoadley then returned to the plac
where his wife fell. He found her still
living and locking his arm in her
emptied two more chambers of his re
volver, one in the forehead and the 9th
er in the mouth, and then shot himself
infiicting wound from which he die
at IL o'clock to-day.
| Hoadley had three revolvers on hi
person and it is thought he intended
kill the entire Newman family. HI
leaves four children by former wife

ried to hill sides. Stock of all kinds
were driven to the high ground, and
household goods were being carried out.
The tracks on the Straitsville branch of
the G. II. V. and T. Railroad are badly
washed, stopping all trains. At IL
o'clock the hillsides are covered with
people and goods of all description wait
ing for the food, but so far it has failed
to appear.
GREAT STORM AT LOGAN.
LOGAN, o., July 1S.-The hardest
storm of thunder; lightning and rain
for years, ragged here for more than four
hours this evening. 1t is feared much
damage will result to crops on the low
lands in the valley.

ELECTRIC STORM AT MARYsvILLE.
MARYsvILLE, o., July 1S.-An cleo
trio storm accompanied by remarka-
BILE fall of rain, passed over Marysville at
s O'Clock tonight, and left great dam

off its steel ornaments, instantly put
7 ting out the lights of town. The switch
board of the Western Union Telegraph
Company was burnt out also.
LANCASTER, O., July 22.-Saturday
one of the most disastrous storms ever
known in the Hooking valley culmin-
ated in the breaking of Sharp's dam at
Sugar Grove, on the Hooking canal.
The dam held in store large body of
water that supplied the lower levels of
canal. The heavy rains had filled the
reservoir to the banks, when suddenly
the dam gave way, and with mighty
roar the sea of water went out through
the valley, taking with it every NOV
able object; For twenty miles the soil
kis ploughed up, trees, fences, crops and
hundreds of head of live stock have been
swept away. No lives were lost, be-
cause the people had taken warning,
and because the houses were situated
on the bluff that overlooks the valley.
