CHICAGO, Jan. 2S.-"We believe in
higher beef and pork, and are trim

II. Webster of Armour & Co. to dav.
"Pork and beef have risen during
the last two weeks and will go still
higher. We expected higher prices
during last year than those which
prev allied, but various causes oper.
a,ed to keep off an advance. 1t has
now come. and to stay, and beef and
pork will be higher this year than
last and will be higher in 1891 than
in 1890"
"Why 2"
"The,e is a constantly increasing

care exports increasing ?"
NO, tnc exports OF OeeI ana pork
in 1889 were about the same as the
preceding year. 1t Is home con-
sumption that is increasing. The
population is growing fast, and the
increase is greater in cities and trade
cen,ers than in farming districts,
where some consumers are also pro-

A GREAT OUTPUT.
Icaho CraWlS up to the Third Place In
the Precious Metal Production.

g. F. Mining and Scientific Press
The re, ort OF Vice President Val.
entine Of Wells, Fargo & Co.'s Elk
press for the year 1880 has been
made public, giving the production
OF the precious metals in the States
aud Territories. 1t is no doubt as
near correct as it can be made, and
equally as reliable AS the reports from
the Director of the MINIS, although
they may vary slightly. 1t gives
Idaho the third position, which is
proud advance over former years, and
she will no doubt MAINTAIN this place.
1t would be too much to expect her
to get ahead OF Montana and Colorado
In the near future, but we think she
will give both severe rub IN less
than five years. She would give
Montana close run now on gold,
silver and lead, but Montana's cop
per yield knocks us out. The dis
covery of tn" gold and silver-le lead
mines of Cnur d'Alene has made
Idaho. They are the largest metal
deposits on the continent, if not on
the globe, and in five years from now
the camp will be producing it's full
quota when railroads will thread
every valley.
Idaho will undoubtedly take the
second place, and may even get to
the FIRST place, if the big Haley Gold
Belt can ever be got into hands tinan-
cially able to develop it and build
water power mills on Wood River.

bered Sections.
The case of the Promontory Ranch
Company vs., Houtz & Conant, which
was appealed by the Ranch Company
from the Supreme Court of Utah, has
been decided by the Supreme Court
of the United States. Both compan.
les are stock-raising corporations and
the litigation was over 100000 acres
Of lands used for stock range. The
plaintiffs claimed title to the lands
by purchase of the odd sections from
the Central Pacific Railroad Company
They claimed that as each alternate
even. numbered section is Government
land, as five highways run through
the tract, they cannot fence the al
ternate odd sections which they pur,
chased of the railroad company.
Owing to this the lands are open and
defendants have grazed about 300.
600 sheep upon them, which the
plaintiffs claimed defendants had no
right to do, and further that owing
to the popularity Of sheep grazing
they leave the land unfit for cattle.
The decision of the Court, which is
against the plaintiffs who are the
appellants in the case, will be of in.
terest to stock-rsisers everywhere as
showing their rights on the public
domain. Justice Miile-, who rendered
the decision OF the Court, says tina,
the bill sought by plaintiffs is without
equity as it seeks b declaration that
they by purchasing enc half of a
parcel of land may control the whole
and thereby deprive the general pub
lie of right granted it bv a license
of more than one hundred years of
access to the public domain.

THE GENrILES.
They Achieve . Complete Victory In
Salt Lake Clty.

They Achieve q Complete Victory IN
! Salt Lake City.
Special dispatches received from
Salt Lake City last night and to day
state that the Geu.iles won a com.
plets victory, and elected their entire
ticket by 500 to 800 majority.
The majority is somewhat larger
than the Gen,iles expected, aud is
probably due to the fact that the
aggressive campaign made by the
Gentiles disheartened the Mormons
who. besides, confidently relied upon
their undoubted preponderance If
their followers had voted as they al
ways did heretofore, the Gentil.s
would have stood no show whatever.
But such prominent Mormons as the
Groesbecks, for instance, having IN
dicated their intention to support the
Gentle candidates, several hundred
others doubtless did likewise. This
accounts, to a certain extent, for the
result.
The Mormons will appeal t. the
courts.

business, leaving Stella in sole charge
Shortly afterwards the shrieks of a child
attracted the attention of Pat" Roch.
and to his horror and surprise, he saw
Stella rush out into the rear yard, her
clothes a mass of flames
Not moment was TO be lost, and in
the twinkling of an eye Mr.. Roch was on
the scene. He bounded to her side and
in another instant was rolling her in the
gutter in front of the house. The flames
were thus extinguished and the little
ones life saved. A moment later and she
would have been a charred mass.
The child's cries brought crowd of
neighbors to the street. and while several
started for the nearest physician, Stella
was taken in the house. DIR. Renwick
arrived in few minutes, and after dress
ing the little ones burns. had her taken
to the City Hospital in AN ambulance.
The unfortunate child was very badly
burned on the left side and on the arms.
Her face also was badly singed. Her

MISS wENDpS TWO LOVERS.

She Married One of Them and Now She
is Sorry For 1t.
This morning a pretty seventeen year.
old girl entered the Office of Judge Sey-
mour in Hoboken and asked for warrant
for the arrest of her husband.
The Judge remembered having married
the girl about four months ago. When
questioned she told remarkable story.
My maiden name was Lulu Grewe; I for.
merly lived at No. Second street. -Four
months ago married Henry Wendt.who
is employed as bookkeeper for Francis,
the lumber dealer.
Ever since my marriage have been
subjected to the most cruel treatment by
my husband. He is insanely jealous, and
l believe is out of his mind. About two
weeks after our marriage he tried to cut
his throat, but was prevented by my
mother About week later he tried ia
hang himself from pole in the yard. He
was cut down before he succeeded in his
purpose.
Every night before retiring he hangs q
razor over his bed and does lots of strange
things. Last night he came home and
beat me numerically. Now Judge,
want him arrested for assault and bat
terry"
Wendt was arrested while at work in
the lumber yard. He told an entirely
different story. If what he says is true
he is more sinned against than SHINING.
He said that his wife was very extravi-
giant, and spent his evenings on dress.
He also said that on the night of their
marriage Spaniard, who had called at
the residence of the bride about half an
hour after the marriage had been per
formed, said that he came TO marry the
girl
The husband states that when the
Spaniard who had been paying attention
to his wife arrived she burst into q fit of
crying and said she was sorry that she
ever married him (Wendt). Wendt ad-
mits that he loved the girl to distraction
and ever since that declaration of his
wife he has reason to doubt her fidelity.
Wendt also stated that his marriage
with the girl incurred the displeasure of
his parents in Germany. and that they
had dlsowned him. If he had not married
the girl he would have fallen heir to $50,

ion was the reception of the Confession of
Faith as it now stands, as containing the
system of doctrines taught in the Holy
Scripture" leads to fears that changes in
the present Confession of Faith may pro
duce compile tions which will not be
easily settled
"a. And, finally, granting that the con
fession may be amended in points which
do not affect the system of doctrine, we
can see no natural necessity for such
amendment as far as subscription is con-
cerned, inasmuch as the terms OF sub
scription bind no mans conscience be-
yond the system of doctrine.
THEREFORE SAY NO"
For these reasons the committee
would recommend that the Presbytery
of Jersey City would answer mo" to the
first question of the General Assembly s
oyertures While returning this answer
to the first question, the Presbytery of
Jersey City would avail themselves of
the opportunity of the second question of
the oyertures, to send to the General AS
sembiy the following ov ertureS:-
The Presbytery of Jersey City respectfully
overture the General Assembly TO prepare end
to issue brief popular definition Of The system
OF doctrine taught in the Holy Scriptures as
contain in the Confession of Faith, and accept
ance OF which is required by the terms of sub
scrption, and in order that other churches hold
ing TO the Westminster Confession of Faith may
unite in this very important undertaking the Pres
bytsry would overture the General Assembly to
enter into correspondence with those churches to
secure such desirable cooperation, all of which
is respectfully submitted.
OTHER BUSINESS.
The Presbytery transacted other bust
ness of Importance. 1t was decided to
soon publish the history of the Presby-
terry, which for soiSss etis,e has hean in the
hands of the Rev. DR.. Buckley and the
Rev. o. A. Kingsbury for preparation.
The history will contain sketches of all
the churches and biographies of each
member Of the Presbytery.
The report of the Board of Foreign
Missions was also ordered printed for dis
tribution. The Rev. j. d. Sentz's pastor
ate of the Norwood Presbyterian Church
was dissolved Mr. Sentz Will supply the
