4 Surprising Discovery by
Members of the PpeSi-
dents Agreement.
Not All the Presidents Have
Signed--The Wisconsin
Central Out.
No Definite Action Yet Re-
garding the c., B. & Ms
Flour Cut.
A. F. Walker to Be Chairman
Of the Presidents Asso-
citation.

CHICAGO, March At has been the
general impression that the presidents
agreement was signed by the presidents
of the various roads parties to the
same. 1t is learned, however, that
of the seventeen signatures, only
nine are by presidents: the other
seven are by vice presidents of various
degrees and general managers. Some
surprise will be caused by the discovery
that the Wisconsin Central is not among
those who signed the document. 1t has
been claimed all along that Gen
eral Manager Mel!en had signed the
agreement for that company. The Wis
consin Central, however, according to a
communication from President Marvin
Hughitt to the presidents of the various
roads, will sign the agreement, and he
says copy of it has been forwarded to
Vice President Abbott for his signature.
He also states that copies have
been forwarded TO the Denver & Rio
Grande and Denver & Rio Grande
Western, with the request that they
become parties to the agreement. Some
of the roads have also signed for lines
which they control OF own. Above the
signatures of the st. Louis e San Fran
cisco appears the following: with
same proviso as previous signature to
this agreement" The ''previous sig
nature is the Atchison, Topeka Il
Santa Fe, but there is nothing to
indicate that it signed the agreement
conditionally. The impression is that
the provis0 means that the Fort Scott d
Gulf and Kansas x Texas roads must
become OartieS ia the anraomant bafora
the signatures of those roads shall be-
come binding. 1t is also observed that
Jay Gould's signature is not attached,
but that Third Vice President Newman
signed Oh his own behalf for the Mis-
souri, Pacific.

A CURIOUS CORNER.
The Terrapin Market Cornered
for Inauguration Day Pur-1

The Terrapin Market Cornered
for Inauguration Day Pur-

NEW YORK, March "A Philadel-
phia special says: The terrapin mar

Baltimore has been ''cornered." When.
early yesterday morning, the stewards
of the various city clubs went to mar

This was an unheard-of calamity.
kilograms were sent to New York and
Baltimore. The answer in both cases
was the same: Market cornered for
ago" George G. Blodt, who will pro-
vide the great supper at the in
auguratiOD, instructed his agent.
Frederick A. Milden, of this
city, some time ago to pur-
chase all the terrapin obtainable in
the market. Mr.. Milden did so. The
prices paid were high, but the demand
had to be supplied. AS a result. LOO
large terrapin and 3,400 small specimens
were contracted for and Immediately
shipped to Philadelphia. AS each ter
rapin arrived in Philadelphia, it was
properly taken care of. In the cellar of
the Bullet building cold vault was
prepared, with running water, sea weeds
and some oatmeal for the entertain
ment of the strangers. The terrapin
lived there until Thursday evening,
when they were taken out, boiled and
picked. The amount made Just $50 gal
Ions, which at the retail price, S. a
quart, makes $1,000 worth of edible lux
ury for Gen. Harrison's admirers. Last
night a special train carried the terra
pin to Washington. TweDty-One cooks

True to His First Love.

George B. Clason, who for the last
five years has been the city ticket
agent for the Milwaukee, has resigned
that position. and will be transferred 10
Milwaukee to position in connection
with the operating department of the
line. Mr.. Clason has been connected
with the road tor thirty years, and in
1881 came to st. Paul as superintendent
of the River division. When the con-
solidation of offices was effected he was
transferred to his present position, and
has since filed it with credit to HIM
self, and satisfaction to the company.
Mr.. Clason had under consideration nu-
merous offers from other lines, but
wisely decided to remain with the Mil

to see his father drop to the ground a
corpse, and with a blOod-curdliDg war
whoop, he sprang on the maniac and a
hand-to-hand fight for the possession of
the rifle followed. Tiger was the su-
periOr in strength, but was at the wrong
end of the gun, and before he could
wrest it from his antagonist he was shot
dead. The maniac then killed two
pappooses Of his sister, and attacked
bucks. Squaws and children indis-
criminately. He was finally cornered
and shot dead. In less than half an
hour eight Indians were killed. =

FLOUR RATES,
The c., B. & n. Cut Discussed by
the Western Freight Associa-
ton

Inc u, Ii. a. ". cut discussed Hy
the Western Freight Associa-
ton.
CHICAGO, March 2.-The Western &
Northwestern divisions of the Western
Freight association closed a two days
session this evening. Discussion of
the proposed reduction in flour
rates, by the c., B. & n, took up a
considerable portion of to-day's session,
but no conclusion was reached as to
what course the association would pur-
sue. 1t was generally admitted that a
FeadjuStment of rates would be neces-
sary on wheat and its products from
points east from Minneapolis and
st. Paul. What concerns the Chi
cagO lines more than this is a report
that the management of the Manitoba is
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of milling
in-transit rates on wheat from Dakota
points to Duluth, via MINNEAPOLIS.
Should such step be taken. it would
complicate matters considerably.
Another question before the meet
ing and which failed of solution,
was whether there shall be a
reduction in lumber rates from Mime
sofa and Wisconsin to Iowa points.
The rates will probably be reduced I'M
less the railroads succeed in obtaining
an advance of the Iowa rates, and of
that there seems to be but little hope.
The matter of adjusting interstate rates
on Iowa business is left to the general
managers of the roads, who will meet

The intensely warm weather which

continued hot spell with the thermo-
meter rolicking in the nineties visits
this latitude. To make matters worse the
nights are also uncomfortably warm,
making sleep unrefreshing, if one can
manage to drop asleep. But we are
fortunate compared to other localities,
for while almost daily reading of cases
of exhaustion from heat in some of the

Weather Crop Bulletin.
FOR THE WEEK ENDING SATURDAY JULY
30, 1889.

There has been but little rainfall in
the State since the 18th inst, and in
Guiding this date the average for the
northern section is but IA of an inch,
whilst the southern section received .65
of an inch, computed from the amounts
reported by observers.
The temperature has been about the
normal for the week in the northern
portion of the State, and an average
excess of one degree daily in the south
ern portion. There has been an excess
in the amount OF sunshine received
ranging from to Is per cent. above the
normal for the season.
The above conditions, after the pro-
tracted rains, have been very favorable
in their effect on the growing crops and
have given farmers lin opportunity to
clear their fields Of grass. The cotton
IN particular was reported very grassy
during the early part Of the week, but
has been exactly what was necessary to
brighten the prospects for good crop
of this staple. There are no worms re-
ported from any of the parishes.
In the central parishes the farmers
will finish the last blowing of the cot
ton this week. The corn crop is made
and is abundant, and the rice is reported
as doing well.
The reports from the sugar region
show that the weather conditions were
very favorable to the cane crop, and
there is also noted wonderful improve
ment in the corn crop. A few local |
showers fell during the week, but none
were at all general. At the Sugar. Ex-
pertinent Station the sorghum is grow
ing very rapidly, and some varieties are
approaching maturity. The laying by
Of the cane crop will be completed in a
few days, and great many planters
have already finished this work. The
rice is looking well, and in the extreme
southern parishes some is already re-
ported in ear. The late plant of rice is
growing rapidly.

The sad intelligence reached this place a few

ways lived at Chieot up to the time Of her mar
riage to Mr.. j. r. Martin, on the 18th of Sep
tember last, when she removed with her hus-
band to the neighborhood of Lake Charles.
Only few weeks ago she visited her former

for her aged mother compelled her to spend
some time at her bedside. She returned to her
home apparently unaffected by. the disease,
but unfortunately the germ had entered her
system and soon developed. Medical effort
failed to arrest its progress and Mrs. MARTIN
died on the 9th inst. She was only % years of
age, and had been the lifelong companion of
the young people at Chicot, and was deservedly
popular with all who knew her, and Mr.. and
Mrs. Scott share the universal sympathy of the
