N. o. City Item The fertile section of
Southwestern Louisiana does not find much
favor with the U. 5. Engineer Department.
Recently Capt. Fisk had a preliminary sur
vey made of Bayou Teche from st. Martins
Vile to the Gulf, and he recommended $4,000
to be appropriated for a detailed survey of
this stretch. But Gen. Comstock reported
that Bayou Teche was not worth improving,
as he has also done in the cases of Bayous
Lafourche and Terrebonne. The Chief of
Engineers has approved these unfavorable
reports, and there is little chance for the i'm
provements of these bayous within a reason
able future. Still the sections of land travers-
ed By them are of the most fertile on the face of
the globe. and if thus properly drained and
put into permanent communication with their
market, would soon blossom like a rose and
Department is unhappily of a different
opinion. 1t might be added so are the rail

The election of men like Pfeffer of Kansas,
and Kyle of South Dakota, to the United
States Senate is, after all, proof of an inn
proved political morality in the West. These
men are cranks undoubtedly, but up to date
their honesty has not been disputed. The
country will be better off to have
them in the Senate than it would
be if their seats were occupied
by some men who bought them. A few years
ago Western Legislatures sent to the Senate
men who bought their way. Pfeffer and Kyle
cannot be accused of doing that. They are
both poor men. 1t is possible that as Repre-
sentatiVes of q class hitherto without repre-
sentation they may induce their colleagues to
consider the needs of this class.-Troy Press.

dodgers IS young man named Joaquin
Lovey, whom Johnson, the keeper of the
house, claims is altogether too familiar with
Mrs. johnson. There have been several rows
between them, and couple of days ago
johnson undertook to throw his rival out OF
the house. The result Ut his efforts is still
evidenced by his swollen nose and eyes in
mourning After the battle with Johnson
Lovey left the house and did not return
until noon yesterday, when the landlord
again found the destroyer of his peace in
his wlfe'ss bondoir. He did not try to throw
him out, but called in policeman and had

Bulletin Issued by the Census Bureau, Civ
ing Some Interesting Figures.
WASHINGTON, May l2.-The Census Bu-
reau has issued bulletin upon the debts Of
the world. As far as can be ascertained the
debt of foreign nations in 1890, less the sink
ing fund, was SO. 636. 90 600, an increase
over 1850 Of s., I54, sos, G55, The debt of the
United States for the same time shows a de-
crease OF SI,O07, 455, 900, or more than half
the amount Of the debt IN 1880. The de-
crease in the debt Of the States and Terrific
Ties for ten years to 1890 is SS7.2l9. 600. In
the same time the debt of the counties in
creased ST., $40, 000. Il latiYely the burden
of debt falls far heavier upon the inhabit-
ants Of the principal foreign countries, ex-
cept those Of Germany. than upon those Of
TINS country. While the individual fluetua-
tons in the amounts Of Indebtedness in sew
enty-niue foreign nations reported have been
considerable during the decade, the aggre-
gated Indebtedness shows relatively but lit
tie change, especially if compared with the
increase of population. The aggregating OF
the national State and county Indebtedness
per capita shows a decrease from $40 % in
1880 10 $50 46 in 1890 An aggregate sur
plus Of receipts for another decade like. the
one just passed would relieve the country
from nearly all national, State and county
indebtedness, could they be distributed for
the purpose.

The Struggle for the Possession of Mrs.
SIiiIer's Estate.
The trial of the case of George Miller
against j. c. Bates, administrators of the
estate of his dead wife, came to an end in
Judge Hoge's court yesterday and the mat
ter was taken under adylsement.
Mrs. Miller died three years ago leaving
valuable property in the neighborhood of
Pacific and Mason street. The property
was bequeathed to her daughter, Oracle
Porter. but it appears that after she had
written the will she decided the prop
erty to her husband. The girls guardian
maintained that this deed was obtained by
fraud and for that reason brought suit to
have it set aside.
Bates ward is the daughter of Mrs. Mil
Ter by her first husband, William Porter,
for many years foreman of the Evening Elk.
aminer 1t is alleged that her marriage
to Miller was union that produced much
misery. They quarreled frequently and
finally separated. Ever since her death he
has been struggling to obtain possession of
the property, which is said TO be worth
