Richard Proctor Insane.

There is much excitement in st. Joseph
over the strange actions of Richard Proc
ror, the only son Of the late famous as
tronomer. Proctor, who is q young man
of 81, about two months ago began to act
strangely and took delight in wandering
abroad at night and hurting stones through
the windows Of private residences. At his
wi home he would frequently chop the
furniture to pieces and toss the debris into
the street. He believes that he is very
wealthy and owns all the real estate in st.
Joseph. He contracts large debts, which
are with difficulty paid by his mother and
sisters, who are poor. II has been decided
to have him committed to an insane asy-
lum. He has been prominent in society.

The Flour Output Declines-Water Now
Going to Waste.
There a quitea heavy decline in the
-four output last week, saysthe Northwest-
err Miller. Only twelve mills ran, and
their aggregate production was 11l,640
Notwithstanding 1867 barrels daily
against 137,45O barrels the week before,
and $3.50 barrels for the corresponding
time in 1889. About the same number Of
mills and the same capacity are in opera
ton this week, the daily output being not
far from 1850 barrels. Several Of the
mills are down pending the completion
of work on races running underneath
them, and the date on which they will re-
sumo is uncertain. The river is now at a
fair stage, and considerable water is rum
ming to waste. This makes the millers
impatient to cut off steam, and there is
talk Of the water being let into the West
Side canal about May 1. The advance in
wheat has infused considerable strength
into the domestic market and there has
been an increased demand. The export
market is wholly devoid Of Life. The Min
neapolis mills made more -four during
March than in February, by over 10000
barrels. The figures also exceeded those
Of March for two years past.

Stevenson Archer. the defaultiue state

have been preferred against him, and u de-

treasurer to appear b. fors him and answer

other duty to perform. He will remain at
Hazel Dell aud see that Archer does not go
away without leaving the address Of bis
destination. ':h:s step was decided upon
after IL session of tue legis' ntive investigat-
ing. committee. OF the th'ea witnesses
examined, enc was (instavus ODER, q
banker and broker. who had sold some
bonds for Archer. Another Was John W.
M,ddendorf, of M%iidentorf, Oliver Il Co.,
which finn had performed q similar service
for him. and the third Benjamin Wright,
chief clerk of the colnptrollcr's
office. The testimony of Mr.. M,dd, ndcrf
established the fact that Archer
had given the firm orders to sell $25,O JO
worth Of bonds in the state sinking
fund. but had made returns for only %l6,-
900 having pocketed the difference. III.

II Startling condition of affairs in the state

almost unlimited. The accounts lad not

troller's department was not even in pos

possible to learn which are missing, only
the mount of the shortage being known.
There was no record kept of the bonds
cancelled, the amount withdrawn being
cLa,ged up to tie treasurer. In order to
make the books balance that official had
simply to enter Il false account. White
exhibited gross ignorance regarding the
laws which govern the Offices of comp
t.oller and treasurer. Archer is still very
ill.
Archer has been arrested by Detective
Humphrey on a bcuch warrant sworn out
by Police Marshal Frey before Judgs Dem
mis-. of the city circuit court. Tbs warrant
Was issued in Baltimore, because the
fraudulent transactions have been for the
most part committed there. HI its report
the investigating committee charges Archer
with m%isapprop hating Sis, 900 in bonds

oner will remain ut Hazel Deli uutil he is
