WEATHERFoRD & SWAN,

There was quite a number of NoXu-
bees best farmers in town on Wcdnes-
day to listen to Mr.. Bogle's address on
the subject Of canning vegetables
The meeting was delayed until srch a
lato hour OH account of an invcstiga-
ton going on in the court room, that
many left without hearing him. The
Central Alliance, under whose auspi-
ccs the meeting was held, regret that
any should have been disappointed
All who heard Mr.. Boglo are satisfied
the affairs of the Canning Company
are in competent hands, and that sue
cess is assured il farmers will only
supply the vegetables.

The international Socialist congress
opened in Paris on Monday.
The French Chamber of Deputies has
voted large sum for the building of war
ships.
There was fatal duel Sunday in Mar
settles, Boulangist killing an Oppor-
tunist.
Two members of the French Chamber
of Deputies quarreled in the hall Friday,
one kicking the other severely, and a
bloodless duel was fought.
London has again been greatly startled
by another horrible murder thought to be
committed by the butcher of fallen
women known as "Jack the Ripper"
The body of woman mutilated in the
usual frightful manner was found Tues
day in Castle alley, in the Whitechapel
district. Although the police have used
every means to apprehend the murderer,
no trace of him has yet been found.
The Temps Paris) says that cipher
kilograms have been discovered which
prove that Gen. Boulanger was at the
head of plot to march upon the Elysee
palace, and that several officers of high
rank had promised him their support.
The Temps further says that the charges
of embezzlement against Boulanger re-
late to the purchase of camp bedsteads
and other supplies for the troops and for
the malversation of the funds of the W al
ministry. Among other charges, it says
the general is accused of using the funds
of the war ministry to buy shares in the
military club and of keeping the shares
thus bought in his own possession.
Intelligence has been received at Hong
Kong from kiaving Chand, a prefecture
in the northeast of Kwang Tung. that
early on the morning of the I'd the Chan
Ping and Ping Yeun districts were flood.
ed by the bursting of water-spout OF
tornado, described by the Chinese as a
water dragon, and the level country was
flooded with nearly 80 feet of water.
The villages of Chae Kon and Ha ku
Haul, in the Ping Yuen district, and
Cueong Tan, Hob Lui, Ngai Ku, Sam
Chan Kin and San Pc Hui in the Chan
Ping district, were overlooked, many
houses being wholly swept away, while
others were inundated. Upwards OF
5000 lives were lost.

mon grades of Western and Northern range
from 10 to IL cents, with very little demand.
Beans have been rather slow all the week,
and prices lost strength. Choice mediums
and large pea sold at $40 to s245 per bushel.
Northern small pea may be quoted at $3.50 to
$500, but very few Offering. Improved yell
low eyes hold at 1915 to s3.s5 per bushel, and
red kidneys at s2.75 to 50, with sales in a
small way.
The egg market has been slow and irregu-
lar, with a wide range in prices. Western
shows the effects of hot weather, and run
down to ID and 1917 cents. Fresh Eastern sell
as fast as they come to hand at IL cents and
upward, but very scarce.
The market is well supplied with new pota-
toes which rule principally at sl.5O to - per
barrel. The quality of the receipts has i'm
proved and large yield is reported in all
sections
The hay market is in a depressed condition,
owing to an oversupply OF poor and ordinary
grades. Most of the sales range from ga to
SIG per ton. strictly choice is worth els, but
little of this kind here. Rye straw is quiet at
Sl6 to Sl7 per ton.

MATTERS AL WASHINGTON.


Mrs. Harrison will visit Mrs. Blaine at
Bar Harbor for three days during the
last week in July.
The extra session of Congress will be
opened between the 18th of October and
the first of November.
President Harrison will transact much
of the public business of the nation for
the remainder of July at Deer Park, and
will take three weeks of absolute rest
from public work in August, spending at
least part of the time as the guest of Mr..
Blaine at Bar Harbor.
Secretary Noble refuses to deny or
affirm the rumor that he deslref to have
a new commissioner of pensions in place
of Corporal Tanner. The quarrel be-
tween him and Tanner is due to the lat
ter's extreme liberality to pensioners in
rerating, or making the total disability
pension date back from the beginning.
Postmaster General Wannamaker has
offered the Western Union Telegraph
company one mill per word for all gov
eminent messages, regardless of the dis
lance to be sent. Under the law it is sup
posed that telegraph companies are oblig-
ed to accept whatever the postmaster
general may see fit to offer. 1t is claimed
that one mill per word is less than the ac-
tual cost of the paper on which the mes
sage is sent and the envelope inclosing it.

WALTER A. WOOD
COMPETITORS
IN TROUBLE.

The Walter A. Wood Ma
chimes are causing makers Of
the old styles to take desper-
ate action:
Firstly advertising False
Tables of the Draft of Woop
Mowers in spurious trials"
AS to the draft of the Wood
mower the following is correct:
In a test made June 7, 1889,
on level ground, moving grass
of Ia tons per acre, at ordi-
nary speed, the following draft
record was made
8 it. bar b: Walter A. Wood mower 14e lbs lbs
At d" Il" Z" 125 lbs
This is the lightest draft
reached by any mower ever in
vented. When competitors
attack the Wood on DRAFT
they make one of the greatest
mistakes possible.

At Washburn, Wis, Monday night, an
unknown man, heavily armed, attempted
to rob two quarrymen three miles from
that place. While searching one of the
men, the footpad was shot dead by the
other, the bullet from a heavy revolver
passing through the highwayman's heart.
A coroner's jury on Tuesday returned a
verdict of justifable homicide. There is
no clue to the identity of the dead man.
