The Ontario department CT agriculture
has issued another bulletin from the bu-
reau of Industries. 1t reports the re-
markedly gratifying contrast In the tenor
of information about the fail of wheat as
compared with that of the spring Of 1888.
There are prospects of an extraordinary
crop of winter rye. From the province
as the whole reports regarding the clover
crop are bad, the early spring having been

ADVICE FROM MARTIN.
He Calls Down the Roughers and Catcher
and Tells Them What 10 Do.

He Calls Down the Roughers and Cntchers
and Tells Them What 10 Do.
Secretary Martin, of the Amalgamated
Association, has at last declared himself on
the important subject of wages now being
discussed by the roughers and catchers. He
says that mistaken impression has got
abroad through statements made by some of
the men and published in this paper that
President Weihe has ruled that "no mem
ber of the Amalgamated Association, who
is not directly employed and paid by the
firm was eligible as delegate to the annual
convention"
> He says that no member will believe any
such nonsense and saws:
If the guide mill roughers intended to ask
for revision In the guide mill scale, so as to
get an increase in wages, they should have
submitted the question to convention through
the programme as the Amalgamated Associa-
tion rules provide. Every question of import
ance, especially on wages intended TO be
brought mp in convention must be submitted
through the programme. This is done in order
to protect the association and prevent members
from springtng questions for advances in wages
without the knowledge and consent of the
membership. AS further protection to the
organization of the wage question, the
laws were changed last convention making
1t obligatory on a member or MEM
bers anticipating ap advance in wages to first
demand it of the company for which he or
they work before it can be taken up in conven-
ton, and failure to do this precludes the pos
sibility of its consideration by convention.
This refers to individual cases only and not to
the general scale. AS we view it the claim of
the guide mill roughers will come under this
rule, so that should it fail of consideration by
the convention the fault rests with themselves.
Every safeguard has been thrown around the
wages question by the Amalgamated Associa-
on questions not known to and sanctioned by
the general organization.

NEW TROUBLES ARISE.

The BOndsmeu of Some Well Known Sa.
loon Keepers Are Rejected by Judge
EwinE-His Utterances About Licenses.
Judge Ewing reopened the License Court
yesterday for the purpose of inspecting the
bonds of the liquor dealers who had been
granted license. 1t was anticipated that
some appeals would be made from the de-
cision of Judge White, and quite large
crowd was on hand when the court was
opened, but nothing of that kind occurred.
Judge Ewing said:
will not entertain any applications for re-
hearing. 1 simply speak for myself. will not
en- tertain any petition for rehearing or a re-
consideration. would as soon think of inter
fering in or rehearing desertion or surety of
the peace case that Judge White had dis
posed of.
Judge Ewing positively refused to allow
one man to be on NOR than two bonds, and
quite number in the rejected list lost on
this account. The Court also refused 10 ap-
prove the bonds of Messrs John O'Neill,
W. j. Rhulandt NJ. C. Dwyer and James
Getty, Jr., until thev furnished certificate
showing that they had resigned their seats
in Councils The following is the list of
the dealers whose bondsmen were refused:
George Reineman, First ward, one bonds
man insufficient
Fred Saunders First ward, one of his bonds
men, Daniel Weigel. on too many bonds.
LEM & Kleinsmith, Third ward, bond not
correct, both signatures on one line. and the
bond wholesale one.
E. ReIneman, Third ward, John W. O'Brien,
bis bOndsman. on too many bonds
Daniel Haggerty, Tenth ward, H. Omert, his
bondsman, on too many bonds.
Felix Mcknight, Fourteenth ward, one
bondsman's property moTtgaged.
Timothy Barrett. Nineteenth ward, one
bondsman's property worth 5000 and mort
gagged for SO, 900.
A. C. Darrah, Third ward, Allegheny. Mary
Klein not accepted as a bondsman.
William Burdette, John S. SNYDER Charles
Wolfendale and Mrs. K. Weber, Fourth ward,
Allegheny, bonds refused because Peter Wal
ter. Jr., uow deceased, named as one of the
bondsmen.
James Tarphy Fifth ward. Allegheny SAM
uel Sholes not accepted as bondsman.
James Boyle, Taylor Lloyd, Roger p. Evans,
Owen Murphy and Michael Ward, Homestead,

Robert c. CarOthers, Mckeesport, one bonds
man insufficient.
William Franey, Baldwin township, one
Dondsman insufficient.
James Briggs and William Thropp, Miffiin
township, bondsmen insufficient
Judge Ewing stated that both judge Ma
gee and himself would go over the bonds of
the wholesale dealers at such time as they
could find in the clerk Of courts Office.

RETAILERS HOPELESS.

A General Meeting Called for To-Day
Lawyers Are Afraid They Have No
show for a RehearinE- Some Incl
dents.
Secretary Kimmick, of the Retail Liquor
Dealers Association, has issued call for a
general meeting of saloon keepers, at $50
A. M. to-day, in G. A. R. Hall, No. Is
Fourth avenue, to discuss matter of great
importance OF course this is the wholesale
refusal of their licenses.
Holding this circular in his hand yester-
day, James Delaney, the well-known saloon
keeper on Market street, who was refused
license, said: 81 am not going to the meet
ing. What is the use? We can do moth
ing. Therefore, why keep up the excite
ment?"
Samuel Bing, the owner of a well-known
resort on Sixth street, said: 81 was refused
license, but 1 am not meeting with the
other men. I accept the result. 1 take my
dose gracefully and will obey the law"
Major A. NJ. Brown, who is attorney for
some of the wholesale dealers, was asked
yesterday by reporter if retailers might
get rehearing also. He did not appear
hopeful, and said the retailers were more
subject to the searching examinations and
whim of the Court than the wholesalers.
Charles c. Montooth and number of other
attorneys who had large number of appli-
cations stated yesterday that they would
make no appeal, as they did not see how an
appeal for retailers could stand.
Controller Brown, of Allegheny, says that
by the decrease in the number of liquor
licenses granted, the city would lose 81, 800.
Before the Brooks license law went into
effect there were 420 saloons.
Perhaps one of the greatest surprises in
the whole affair was the granting of but one
license to the Seventeenth ward. There were
26 applicants. The ward is the most popu-
lous in the city. 1t never had a bad reputa-
tion, that is for rowdyism or outlawry as a
result of too many saloons. Some parts of
the Eighteenth, Fifteenth and First wards,
for instance, had far worse records in police
courts. Yet each of these were granted
two. three and five licenses each, while the
Seventeenth ward was given but one saloon.
