Nebraska. AS q natural consequence
the corn crop is suffering. Unless rains
come soon and in abundant supply, the
crop will be a comparative failure.
Spring wheat also is experiencing the
blighting effects of the drouth. The av-
erage condition of that crop at present in
Iowa, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Minnesota
and Dakota is about IS per cent. below
the average. Oats are yielding as we'll
as could be expected considering the adj
verse conditions to which the crop has
been subject in the way of drouth and.
insects. The crop is practically a failure
in Kentucky, as also in many counties of
Illinois, Missouri and Indiana, where the
ravages of the grain plant louise were
most severe. Reports indicate that the
average condition is 80 per cent. lower
than that of last year at harvesting time,
and the average yield 20 per cent. less
than that of 1889. Minnesota and Da-
kota lead this year with oats, and are
harvesting good crops, both as regards
quality and yield.

TIE DWIGHT FARM.
Only a Half Crop Expected by Governor
Miller.

WAHPEroN, N. D., Aug. 5.-W. P.
Adams, who is now engaged in harvest
ing 5000 acres of wheat, was asked to-
day what his wheat would yield. "Not
more than ten bushels per acre" he said.
"Last year I had from % to 30 bushels
to the acre. EARLY in the season we had
no rain, so that the grain did not sprout
and weeds got the start of it. Later the
hot winds and lack of moisture blighted
the grain" Governor Miller Of the
Dwight farm, said he did not expect
more than a half a crop. When asked
for his observation as to what the crop in
Richland county would be, he said: GA
liberal estamate is two-thirds of last
years crop; the southern portion of the
county not above one-half. The entire
crop Of the state is badly damagedby the
dry, hot winds. I think the crop OF
North Dakota is generally overestimated
by all published reports. A gentleman
from Ramsey county said that wheat
there was seriously injured by hot winds
last week. At least one-half Of the acre
age in Sargent county will not be cut"

A scheme to Coloni.e Negroes.

ST. Lou1s, Aug. 81. Milton Turner,
attorney, will leave for New York to-day
to arrange the details Of his plan for col
onizing negroes in Mexico. He says the
plan is being promoted by a firm Of cof-
fee dealers in New York, who have q cap
ital Of ABOUT $5,OOO,OOO. "The purpose
Of the firm" he said, yesterday, "isto put
negroes to raising coffee and sugar.
They own 100000 acres Of land which
will be divided among the colonists. No
rental will be charged for the land, and
the firm will furnish all means Of support
for the negroes till they can get their
ground under cultivation and become
self supporting. They r willing to-
spend $2,OOO,0OO to s ,0OO,OOOin that way.
The details OF the scheme will be settled

a be made very beneficial for the ne
groes. I have already received q large
number Of applications from negroes who

st. Paul in a Stew.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-The citizens
committee from st. Paul had another con-
ference with the secretary of the interior
to-day with reference to the proposed re-
count of the population of that city.
Since the last conference, the committee
has made as careful an examination OF
the charges Of fraud in the enumeration
of st. Paul as time and means at hand
would permit, and to-day presented TO
the secretary their conclusions. The
committee finds that the insurance map,
which was to some extent used as a basis
for the charges, was wholly unreliable
for the purposes for which it has been
used in this connection. It was stated
in the affidavit by its compiler that the
map was not intended to show sections
Of the city, even though thickly popula-
ted, where the character of buildings was
such as to render them uninsurable.
Other important portions OF the city
where buildings were scattering, were
not shown at all, indeed only such por-
tions were shown as were necessary for
insuring purposes. The committee found
a number of errors in the work of
those who had made examinations upon
which the order of the recount was
based, and, while freely admitting that
the work Of enumerating nine of the city
districts had been so carelessly and mac
curately done as to render further in
vestigation and correction of errors nee
essary, they strongly objected to a re-
count Of the whole city as unnecessary
and unjust to it's people. The commit
tee presented two propositions to the
secretary, either of which they believed
would and should be satisfactory to the
secretary and the citizens of st. Paul.
The first was that a full recount Of the
nine districts be had under the direction
of Superintendent Porter, and the Sec
ond was to return the schedules of these
nine districts to st. Paul and there cor
rect and verify them. The secretary,
after questioning the committee on sew.
eral points upon which he was not clear,
stated that his only desire in the matter
was to do full justice to all con-
cerned. He reviewed the history
of the case and also at length commented
upon the work of the bureau, during
which he took occasion to compliment in
the highest terms the work of Superin-
tendent Porter. He said that he Porter)
had conducted the affairs ofthat great bu-
reau with skill and judgment, and the ac-
curacy and efficiency of the work was, in
his opinion, something marvellous. There
fore, he was not prepared to rescind the
order for a recount, but it was his desire
that the work of investigation now inpro-
gress by Porter bepushed to a conclusion,
and when that was donehe would further
consider the question Of the necessity for
q recount.

ST. PAUL, Aug. 6.-Grand Forks spe-
cial to Pioneer Press: The democratic
state convention met at the opera house
in this city to-day. Judge Bennett Of
Bottineau was elected temporary chair
man, and Andrew Bluett of jamestown
temporary secretary. The preliminary
work of the convention was concluded at
the afternoon session. There were no
contests, and the committee on credeu-
tials were only a short time in making a
report. Judge Bennett was made per-
manent chairman and A. B. Gray of Bis
marck, secretary. Resolutions we're
adopted declaring for tariff for
revenue only. ratifying the
national platform of 1883, IA
voring reciprocity or free trade when
ever such policy will open a market for
home productions and favoring a resub-
mission of the prohibition question. The
last plank was the occasion for q very
lively debate between different
factions of the party. The conven-
ton took a recess until
this evening, when additional resolutions
were adopted, opposing the federal cleo
ton law and declaring in favor Of free
coinage Of silver. The following state
ticket was then nominated: For con-

current be applied again. This was
done. The instant the contact was made
there was capillary congestion of the face
and hands, which is regarded as = post
norton appearance, rs though you had
applied a current to a dead body. The
longer the current was kept on after the
period which we call the death period,
this line of congestion gradually sank,
showing that the blood was no longer
propelled to the vessels, but had settled
down to dependent parts as in dead SUBJ
