Rusk to the Farmers.

WARRINGTON. April 22.-Secre-
tary Rusk 10 reply to hundreds of
communications from different sec.
tions of the country, appealing to him
for an expression of opinion respect
ing the present condition of agricul-
tural depression, its causes and rem,
edies, has issued long address to the
farmers of the country. The present
agricultural depression. universally
admitted, and of which there can be
no doubt. the Secretary says. can be
traced to combination of causes, 80
MANY that probably no one can
enumerate them all.-ThOse causes
which to the Secretay seem more
directly responsible for this severe
depression may be divided into two
classes-those inherent to farmers
themselves, and for which they alone
can provide possible remedy, and
those over which the farmer himself
has no direct control, and the remedy
for which must be provided by law.
In the first class of causes indicat.
ed he attributes depreciation of the
productive power of land TO variety
of causes-to careless culture, want of
business.like methods. lack of study
of supply and demand and market
prices. and to the ownership of more
land by many than they can properly
care for. After abiding briefly to
the discOuraging effects of farm mort.
cages, the difficulties of the transpor.
tation question. gambling in farm
products. combinations, and the de.
pressing feet of the increase of mid.
dlemen on the result of the farmers
honest toll, Secretary Rusk advances
an argument in favor of higher duties
on agricultural products. One of the
gravest causes for the present agricul-
tural depression. in the opinion OF
the Secretary, is lack of protection
for the farmer. Few people, he says,
realize that our imports of agricul-
tural products estimated at prices
paid by the consumer. are about
equal to our agricultural exports esti.
mated at prices paid to the farmer,
yet such is the case. Our imports of
products sold in competition with
those actually produced on our own
soil amount to nearly $l15,O00,000
and as much more could be produced
on our own soil under favorable con.
ditions.-Our imports of agricultural
products for the fiscal year ended
June 80. 1889, aggregated $500. OO0..
900, the far greater part of which.

Lord Hartington's Departure

Earl Dunraven Inaugurates a
Crusade Against the

France Is Pledged to Continue

LONDON, Jan. 2s.-The DOW certain
absence of the Marquis of Harrington
from the opening of the coming session
of parliament, enforced upon him by his
recent illness and departure for the con-
tinent to recuperate. is productive of ill
results, which threaten more serious
consequences than the mere loss of its
leader at critical time would naturally
entail upon political party. 1t had no
sooner become an absolute certainty
that Lord Harrington could not be pres
ent at the opening of the house than the
factions OF the Unionist party, headed
respectively by Sir Henry James and
Joseph Chamberlain. began a contention
which has since developed into down.
right fight to determine which of the
two was entitled to the interim leader
ship of the disSident party. The I'm
ionist party, by reason of its setbacks
at the bye-elections and the diversity of
views held by its principal members on
questions of vital importance, is none
too cohesive at the best, and the Con-
servatives view with feelings of alarm
the present squabble for the leadership,
fearing split which will give the
more lukewarm of Unionists the oppor-
tunity they have long sought to creep
back into the GladStonian fold.

THE CARTEL COALITION.
1t Will Not Be Dropped During
the German Elections.

BERLIN, Jan. 2S.-Owing to the total
failure of the Cartel coalition to come
to the rescue of the government in the
recent crisis made by the socialist bill,
there has been some wonder as to
whether that combination must hence
forth be looked upon as merely piece
of past political history. The truth is
now plainly admitted that the bond
of the Cartel com binatiOn was some
what platonic when an issue was
made that was of really vital inter-
est, considered from the standpoint of
old party lines. The Cartel leaders
have consequently agreed that as the
advantages of the coalition are sub
Stantial for general legislation, it is not
desirable that it should be dropped dur
ing the elections; but as the parties to
it differ radically in their opinions upon
the socialist bill, that bill will not be
considered as included in the pur-
poses for which the coalition is main
tanned, and members will be at
liberty to act on it according to
their own convictions, without thereby
violating any obligation as CarteIers.
1t is now expected that Prince Bismarck
will make at an early day, in the Prus-
sian chamber of deputies, declaration
on the subject of socialism and the So
ciaiistlc law which shall be accepted as
presenting the platform of the govern
ment. in lieu of the speech it was eX-
pected he would make in the reichstag
on the last day of the session.

Twenty PERSONS injured by an
Oxygen Explosion.
BLOOMINGTON, ILL.,, Jan. 2S.-Tweuty
persons were Injured at 2 o'clock this
afternoon, in the high school at Lexing-
ton, this county, by terrific explosion,
' which was heard all over the city.
While Prof. Jess, surrounded by pupils
and teachers, was conducting an
experiment in chemistry, in which
oxygen was being generated in
a retOrt composed wholly or in
part of iron, with iron pipe connections,
the retort suddenly flew to pieces and
nearly thirty persons were hurled in all
directions, and twenty Of them more or
less mangled. To add 10 the horror of
the scene, a can of gasoline, through
which a piece of hot iron had been
blown, took fire, and for a few moments
it looked as though the building and
some of the wounded victims might be
consumed. The burning gasoline spread
rapidly over the floor and seats, but the
flames were eXtinguished after hard
fight, IN which several of the students
were slightly ScOrched. The most dam
gerously injured by the explosion are
as follows:

PLEDGED TO PROTECTION.
France Will Make New CONNER
ciaI Treaties Next Year.

cIaI treaties Next u ear.
PARIS, Jan. 2S.-M. Ribot, Republican
deputy from the Pas de Calais, spoke
before the customs tariff committee on
the projected renewal of the CONNER
cial treaties. He said the question be
fore them was whether France should,
when the commercial treaties expired
III 1892, resume complete freedom from
tariffs, or should conclude new treaties
in 1891. The majority of the deputies
had already pronounced in favor of the
renewal eff the treaties at that time.
The points at which this subject touched
most forcibly the mind of the people
were as it regarded the convenience of
frequent changes in the tariff and the
danger of exposing the French export
trade to rigorous measures of intended
retaliation OH the part of other countries.
France should know that she is
bound to the commercial policy of pro-
lection. She is not in the same position
as Great Britain and Belgium. which
have superabundance of industrial
production. All the conditions of her
political, social and economic order
make it imperative that wide and
efficient protection should be accorded
to French manufactures and agricult-
IRE.

near the value of the road, he would
have no hesitancy in ordering the road
abandoned and the track torn up and
sold for old iron. He was becoming
impatient at the conduct of those who
were mostly interested in the road, yet
were attempting to purchase it a figure
too low to even pay court expenses. 1t
is said that Fort Madison people are
afraid that the road will eventually be
abandoned, as no one appears anxious
