struck the Swede over the head with the
handle of pitchfork. He struck him twice,

the head and the second being on the lower
part Of the back Of the head, q little to the
left. The last blow knocked the Swede in
sensible and he was carried into the loft

flies gathering around and on his bleeding
head, which no one even washed of. He
lay there all day Saturday without attend
ance until some Of the neighbors, hearing
Of the affair. went over and took

very indignant over the treatment accorded

tween Guatemala and San Salvador was

ans have received reinforcements, and will
return to the charge soon. Honduras is
allied with Guatemala. while Nicaragua and
Costa Rica, for prudential reasons, have al
lied themselves with Salvador. Mexico,

Guatemalan frontier, in tho state of Chea-
has, and orders have been given the

DULUTH, Minn., July N.-Thousands of
spectators were present at this, the first day

we're in perfect condition. In the junior
bingles the contestants were Nettleton, Of
Minnesota; Henderson. of the ChicaRo Cat

Nettleton won by two lengths in 10:49.
Thompson second, Henderson third. The
|iunior four-oared race resulted: Winni-
pegs first, Duluth second, Minnesota third,
(Lurlines fourth, st. Paul fifth. The
Judges boat unfortunately ran too
close and the St. Paul crew had to back
water. This delayed them several seconds
bust after the turn and this, added to the fact
that the Lurlines and Duluths fouled caused
the judges to decide that the race must be
rowed again. The junior doubles was very

Minnesotas second. During the last half

Kay were nearest the shore, Teemer and
Hosmer next, Hanlon and Wise next. and
|Hamm and Ten Eycke last. There was some
delay in giving the signals, but when the
shot was finally heard all the men dipped
their oars with wonderful unanimity. The
stroke of Gaudaur and Mckay soon told
and they forged ahead of Teemer
and Hosmer, first quarter, then
la half, and then full length. The crews
followed one another quite closely In their
order from the shore, Gaudaur and Mckay
pulling forty-two strokes minute, the
others thirty six. GaudRur and Mckay
were first to make the turn, but they were
quickly followed by Hosmer and Teemer,
then Hamm and TenEycke, and finally
Hanlan and Wise. Half way to the finish
the press boat was passed, when Gaudaur
and Mckay lead Teemer and Hoemer by
three lengths. The latter kept three fourths
of length ahead of Hamm and TenEycke,
who kept the same distance ahead of the
Toronto crew. Gaudaur's crew shot across
the line amid wild cheering and whistlinQ
about four lengths ahead. The efforts of the
last two crews TO pass Hosmer and Teemel
we're unavailing, although there was but q
quarter of q length between Teemer and
Hamm and also between Hamm and Han

better had he not lost both oars for SEQ

Mexico that war had broken out between
Guatemala and San Salvador says, the tele-

been declared and that no Guatemalian
troops had crossed the frontier of San Sal
vador. In the minister's opinion the fight
ing referred to in the dispatches must have
occurred in the interior of San Salvador be-
tween factions of that country.

preventing down town pool selling, to enlist
the services of detectives and inaugurate
systematic raids. If pool sellers are con-
track owners will of course be increased.

luotantly after being urged to head the

ins hape to admit of my absence from the
state without sacrifice. In 1889 our demo-
cratic brethren consolidated and presented
such formidable combination that many
Of the republican leaders feared defeat.
Under these circumstances did not feel at
liberty 70 shrink from what seemed plain
duty to the party, and besides, had praoti-
callv agreed to serve two years, and my

to an Interpolation in regard to negotia-

secure from the United States government
a moderate application of the provisions oi

English Grain Marketa

LONDON, July 21.-The Mark Lane Ex-
press says the expectations Of the acreage
Of 1889 have lsssened one million quarters
as regards wheat, although oats and barley
are uncertain. Engliah wheat in London
advanced %. Sd. in fortnight. Trade in
foreign wheat is disappointing, although
the tone of Fridays market was somewhat
encouraging. Spring corn trade is in favor
of the sellers. The immense quantity of
maize afloat prevents any advance. Barley
is slightly dearer. At to- days market there
was an extremely reduced supply of Eng
lish wheat, and fancy prices were de-
manded, outside being 4Os. Foreign wheat
irregular; California Sd. dearer. Flour
favors holders. Maize steady.
