WEEKLY FLOUR OUTPUT.
The Product of tho Minneapolis Mills Las
Week l56.4lO Barrels

The Product of tho Minneapolis Mills Last
Week 156,45O Barrels.
Through the liberal use of steam the
flour output was increased about 10000
barrels last week, says tho Northwestern
Miller. The aggregate production for the
week was l56,450 barrels, averaging 26,075
barrels daily, against 1856, 275 barrels the
previous week, and 102, 240 barrels for the
corresponding time in 1889, aud 164 900
barrels in 1883. The same seventeen mills
were running Wednesday as a week ago,
and they are perhaps making Is, 500 barrels
per twenty hours. The water power
from Friday up to Tuesday was fair, but
To-day the water is very low and steam has
to be used ID order for most of the mills to
get out reasonable amount of -four. It
Is reported that the reservoirs in the north
have been opened, and hope is entertained
of the supply Of water being thus improved
to some extent. The demand for patent
flour during the past seven days
has been very good, but buyers
were prone to accept old offers
made to them, and after wheat had
advanced beyond that basis. Some of the
heavier firms sold quite freely. There are,
however, some of the mills which have
nearly caught up on their orders, and not
selling as much as others they may soon
have TO curtail their output. Prices are
about 35@50c higher than week ago on
account of the advance in wheat. The
direct export shipments last week we're 49,
500 barrels, against 80, 800 barrels the pre-
ceding week.
The Minneapolis mills ground more
-four in July than during any of the three
previous months, and the output was like
wise Heavier in July year ago. Up to
June the greater part of them were with
out water, owing to improvements in prog
ress. and being placed in possession of
their power early in the last named month,
an improved -four market was all that was
needed to stimulate operations in July.
For eleven months of the crop year, the
output this season has been 6, 184, 1865 bar
rels, against 5.237, 1856 barrels q year ago,
6,57O, 43U in 1878. The direct exports of
-four are 538, 800 barrels ahead of last year,
and though in quality not up to those
of 1878, they compare very we'll with
them,

PERU's PRESIDENT.
Col Bermudez Inaugurated Constitutional
Ruler.

Col, Bermudez Inaugurated Constitutional
Ruler.
Advices from Lima via Panama state
that Col. Remigio Morales Bermudez,
president elect, has been inaugurated con-
stitutional president of Peru. Col. Ber-
mudez is As years old, has been project Of
department, ana has done good military
service in the Peruvian army. During the
Chllian war he was promoted to the col
onelcy, and in the struggle for supremacy
between Gen. Iglesias and Gen. Caceres in
1885, Col. Bermudez was firm supporter
of Gen. Caceres, and it was largely owing
to the services of Col. Bermudez that
Gen. Carceres succeeded to the pres
idency. President Carceres, by con-
stitutional provision was ineligible
for reelection, and the influence of
his administration was thrown in favor Of
his old friend Bermudez. The new presi-
dent is bachelor, man of striking per-
sonal appearance, universally popular with
the army, and his military and civil ex-
perience will make him strong man. 1t
is expected that he will carry out faithfully
the policy of President Caceres which in
cludes the celebrated Grace Donoughmere
contract, the extension of the entire rail-
road system of Peru, and the financial re-
Mobilization since the disastrous wer with
Chilli. He will have strong party to back
him in the congress, although the adher-
ents of DR.. Francisco Rosas, the defeated
candidate for the presidency, feel some-
what bitter against the new president, but
it is believed that the administration will
successfully carry out its policy in con-
tinuation Of the various measures started
under President Caceres.

Pertaining to Juries For County Cou

Pertaining to Juries For County Courts.
The following is the opinion by the at
torney- general pertaining to juries for
county courts:
once OF the attorney general, Pierre S. D.
Nouhty Judge: Dear Sir-Responding to your
request for the opinion of this office as to
whether or not a county judge has power. in q
criminal case to issue @ venire for jury of
twelve men at any time, would say that sec
ton L., chapter rs, laws of 1890, provides that
unless the court shall otherwise order the jury
for the law terms of the court shall be drawn
and summoned in the manner as is now or may
hereafter be provided by law for the drawing
andlsummoning of juries for the terms Of the
circuit court. And when O jury is not sum-
moned as above provided, it is made the duty
OF said court, on the first day of each term
thereof. to ascertain whether july shall be
required. If a jury shall be demanded by
elther party to any suit pending by any de-
PENDANT, or the states attorney in any criminal
action the court must thereupon set such case
or cases for trial and direct the clerk OF said
court TIC issue venire for twelve competent
Jurors, and deliver the same to he sheriff, who
shall summon such jurors from the body of the
county to be and appear before said court at
the term set for the return of said venire. The
manner of pounding jurors for the Ia " terms Of
the county courts Is clearly set forth in the
above provision and in my opinion precludes
the summoning of jury of twelve Or more in
any other way or upon any other conditions,
and that a jury Of twelve men cannot be legally
ordered either by tho county court or its judge
at any time for the trial of actions coming
within the range of it's concurrent jurisdiction
with the circuit court. Respectfully, etc.

on Hazeo de 10 Reforma, where there had
been erected two Aztec pavilions. Three
batallions of infantry formed double
line through which President Diaz and his
cabinet passed to the Aztec temple where
the governor of the federal district, city
council, military men and others
were received. Addresses were de-
liyered in the Aztec languages,
and poems were read. Indians for
miles around came, bearing feather
worked standards and attired in costumes,
such az were worn previous to the fall Of
the Aztec emperor. There were native
bands by tho scores, and it is estimated
that including the military bands there
were at least 400 military musicians pres.

wreath on the statute of Cuanhtemoc, the
Indians nearly buried the base with flow.

"A Pennsylvania Italians Prelnonition of
Death.

"A Pennsylvania Italians Premonitlon OF
Death.
A strange story comes from Glen Lyon,
little mining village below Pittston, Pa,
concerning the death of an italian laborer.
The night before his death he was at
Wikesbarre, and when ne arrived at home
at a late hour, he was convulsed with fear,
his whole frame trembling like leaf. He
told wierd story of seeing man lying
across his path, with his eyes bullying from
his head and his arms extending heaven.
ward.
The Italian said that after passing the
object he ran home. Here the mans fam
lily made much sport of his fright, and
finally induced him to 20 to bed. In the
morning, as usual, he was called for break
fast in time to 60 to work, but he refused
to leave his bed, saying that he would be
killed if he did. After much persuasion
he was induced to go to work rolling logs
down skidway for some lumbermen.
Before 10 o'clock he was caught between
two logs and killed. When his body was
released he fell upon his back, and, with
uplifted hands and eyeballs forced from
their sockets, he presented exactly the pic
ture which he had described the night pre-
vious. When his mother and sister saw
the body they grew frantic, and it was
with difficulty that they were restrained
from doing themselves bodily harm.

THE cRoNlN MURDERERs.
The Case of the State Against Their Ar
peal to Re Heard Som

The Case of the State Against Their APP
peal to BE Heard Soon.
When the Illinois supreme court meets
next month for the fall term the case of
the state as against the appeal Of the con-
vlcted murderers Of DR.. Cronin will be
personally argued by Attorney General
Hunt, who has been furnished with a copy
of the voluminous record, which in bulk
nearly exceeds that of the anarchist case.
He proposes to devote considerable of his
attention to it during the next few weeks.
Recent developments show that nearly all
the important witnesses for the state, who
testified upon the trial of Coughlin and
his associates, are either dead or have
mysteriously disappeared, and that as
consequence the state could hardly pro-
coed with the second trial in the
event of the verdict being set aside
by the supreme court, has quick
ened the energies and once more
aroused the activity of the thousands of
friends and countrymen of the murdered
physician, through whose fundamentally
three of the murderers now languish in
Joliet and who propose sooner or later
that the king bee of the conspiracy and
the crime, and who now walks the streets
of Chicago free man, shall have his guilt
brought home to his door. The near
possibility that unless the case were
strongly presented some flaw might be
found in the record which would justify
the supreme court in remanding the case,
has put these men on their metal, and
were it necessary, thousands Of dollars
would be forthcoming in twinkling for
the employment of the best council OBJ
tainable to plead in opposition to the ap-
peal. With the entrance of Attorney
General Hunt into the case, however, there
will be no need for outside assistance, and
the opinion is confidently expressed that
after his dissection of the record the ap.
peal will be dismissed.
