YerY close EstImates.

Estimates of Tennessee's wheat and
corn crop for 1889 were made by the
State Commissioner of Agriculture and
published several months ago, the wheat
estimate being given out August 1st
and the corn estimate November 1st. A
short while since the Government Bu-
reau at Washington issued estimates OF
these crops, and the closeness of the
figures of the State Bureaus estimates
is remarkable, especially as to the
wheat crop. Commissioner Hord's esti-
mates were: Wheat, 9,976, $50 bushels I;
corn, 70, 451, ,730 bushels. The Govern
ment's estimates were Wheat, 9, ,965, 600
bushels; corn, so, ,S31, 200 bushels. There
is not quite 1000 bushels difference in
the wheat estimate, and only about
100000 in the corn estimate. Mr..
Hord's estimates being published so
long in advance of the Governments,
the latter were, of course, based on
more complete and accurate informa-
ton but that the State Bureaus sys-
tenn of securing information and com
piling it is first-class one is shown by
the similarity in the estimates noted
above.

Al Divide Asked For.

Counse1lors for Mrs. Elizabeth Min
chin filed bill in the Chancery Court
at Nashville last week against E. NJ.
Wooda1l, Bette Woodall and others.
The complainant in the suit is one of
the sureties on the bond of E. M. Wood
all as public guardian. She charges
that various suits have been brought
upon this bond and Judgment rendered
as to same and executions levied on
her property, which has been sold to
satisfy said executions. Complainant,
as one of Woodall's sureties, seeks by
this bill Judgment over and against
Woodall, and to force other sureties on
the said guardian bond to contribute to
pay the debts for which her property
was sold. Recently the landed estate
of Woodall was sold and the proceeds,
about SIT, ,ooG,l paid into court. There
are several mortgages on this land, and
Mrs. Minchin seeks by this bill to reach
the interest of the various parties in
this fund and have them contribute
toward paying the debt which she
alone has paid. The amount involved
is about S10,000.

A New Trial Granted.

The Supreme Court has reversed the
Stokes was convicted of the murder of
his uncle, Thomas Benton Stokes, in
DeKalb County, and was sentenced to
ten years in the penitentiary. He ap-
pealed in error. One of the assign
ments of error was remark made by
the judge, which appears to have been
mere pleasantly. The defendant relied
on plea Of insanity, and pending the
introduction of expert testimony the
Judge remarked that if much more of
this sort of testimony was introduced
neither be nor any one else would know
anything about the case. The court
thought this not a reversible error.
Another assignment of error was the
argument of the Acknowledgement. He
told the jury that they should convict
the defendant because it would be dan
gerous to turn him loose on the public,
and that he would kill some one else.
He further said that DR.. Jones, intro
duced by the defense, was not an expert,
and asked why the defense had not ex-
amined DR.. Calender, who examined
defendant after conviction, and pledg-
ing himself and the Judge to sign a
petition for pardon if DIR. Calender said
he was insane. The court thought this
extraordinary line of argument was an
error, and upon this the case was re-
versed and remanded for new trial.

STRUGGLE WITH A MANIAC.


WIN IN 11DC0Rctk A@un8SACs
CHIcA GO, March s.-Last evening Mrs.
Mary Peterson, weary from her days
work, sat by the kitchen fire to await
the coming of her husband, when the
front door opened. Supposing Ii to be
her husband, she got up to greet him,
but before she reached the hall door 1t
was thrown violently open and strange
man with ferocious glare in his eyes
confronted her.
For a moment the two stood facing
each other, the woman almost paralyzed
from fear and the madman gloating over
his intended victim with glittering eyes.
Then the maniac drew revolver and
leveling 1t at the woman's head, fred.
With superhuman effort she sprang
to one side, and then, with a bound like
tiger, clutched him by the throat
1t was fight for life, and even the
madman with his awful strength, could
not loosen the woman's grip. In vain
did he strike her with his revolver. He
tried to bring the muzzle in line with
her head that he might blow her brains
out, but she Rugged him so closely that
he could not, and the weapon was again
discharged into the wall.
The woman clinched her hands the
tighter, and the mans eyes began to
start from their sockets, while his face
changed from red to livid purple and
his tongue rolled out as he gasped for
breath. The veins of his forehead
swelled almost to bursting, but she held
on, knowing that her life depended on
her grip.
Back and forth across the room they
struggled. Chairs were overturned and
the table, set for supper, was upset.
The madman had ceased to strike her
and all his efforts were to break her
grasp on his throat. He began to weak
en-. At last the blood spurted from his
nostrils and the sight of this was more
than the poor woman could stand. She
relaxed her hold and fed from the house
to the nearest neighbor's and the police
were called
AS soon as he was freed from Mrs.
Peterson's grasp, the madman skunk to
the attic of the house. In a short time
officers arrived and the maniac was
found in the attic. He had lost his pis-
tol in his struggle with Mrs. Peterson,
but after another contest he was finally
overpowered.
Nothing could be learned from the
man, however, further than that his
name was Albert Jensen and that he
had escaped from Michigan insane
asylum. After closely examining him
he was taken to the detention hospital.

The Missouri State Treasurer Suddenly Ten
ders His Resignation Pending the Investi-
cation of His Books.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, March Sat
four o'clock yesterday afternoon Mr.. E.
L. holland entered the Treasury Depart
ment. Governor Francis was in the
private Office, and walking up to him,
Mr.. holland handed him an envelope.
''Here is my resignation, Governor" he
said, and turning, walked out
To His ExcellencY, DaviI r. Francis, Gov
ernor of Missouri:
JEFFERSON CITY, kfo, March ', lS90.-Sir:
Herewith hand you my resignation as State
Treasurer of the State of Missouri. Very re-
spectfully, K. T. NOLAND.
What led Mr. holland to tender his
resignation can only be surmised as he
declines most positively to talk. He
would only say last night that he was
preparing statement to give the press.
What the nature of this statement will
be can not be foreshadowed at present.
Mr.. holland was engaged last night
upon the statement he will make public
to-day. He counseled with friends and
there is an undercurrent of anxiety
about the capital as to what disclosures
may be forthcoming.
Governor Francis has not accepted the
resignation of Mr.. holland yet He will
move very cautiously in order to avoid
complication.
= The Attorney-General is looking up
all the points bearing upon the case in
order to decide what disposition should
be made of the resignation. Some hold
that it is a constitutional right of
State officer to resign at any time and
under any circumstances, while on the
other hand others contend that while
under suspicion Mr.. Noland's resigna--
tion can not be accepted. 1t is believe
that the action will only serve to COM
plicate matters and involve intricate
lepal questions

ison, of Homewood, Kan.
MERIDEN, Kan, March 6-GreaG ex-
element has prevailed in this little city
ever since the killing last Sunday morn
ing of the Valley Falls bank robber.
The authorities have been keeping his
body from day to day, hoping that some
one would come and identify the body
and give it burial. 1t has been almost
a daily occurrence for some one to ar
rive who thought they could identify it,
but up to yesterday no one had been
able to do so.
Yesterday afternoon A. r. Shaw, Isaac
Shaw and FL. w. Lemon arrived from
Homewood, a small town near Ottawa,
Kan, and each identified the outlaw be-
yond question, his name being Shannon
Robson and his home at Homewood,
