White Cap whipping in Indiana.

CHICAGO, ILL, June aO.-A dispatch
from New Albany, Ind, says there was
another brutal whipping by white caps
in crawford county Sunday morning IN
which young woman of eighteen
years was one Of the victims. William
Mcclure and his eighteen year old step
daughter live near LeaTenworth, the
county seat of Crawford county. They
were reported to be living in adultery
but there was nc proof OF this charge.
About o'clock Sunday morning twen-
ty masked white caps, all armed with
revoIyerS went to McGuire's residence,
broke down the door and seiZlng Nc
Guire, who is about fifty years old. and
his step-daughter dragged them to
the woods and tied them face foremost
to trees. Then the clothing of both
victims was lowered to the hips and the
white caps commenced the cruel work
of whipping them on their bare backs,
tlaying them from the shoulders to the
hips. The young woman shrleked for
mercy at every blow, but her appeals
were in vain until she sunk fainting
from pain. She received over fifty
lashes. Her shoulders, rack and hips
are frightfully larcerated. Old man
Mcclure was given about seventy-five
lashes. He also fell fainting under the
savage punishment. After the whip
ping the white caps notified them If
they were found in the county twenty
days later they would be hung UP by
their necks and left for the buzzards to
pick. This Infamous whipping of a
helpless girl has created the most in
tense excitement in Leavenworth and
the neighborhood of that town and is
denounced with great bitterness.

1.-The Chinese Must Co."

WASHINGTON, June 24.-Actlng
Secretary Spaulding rendered a decision
today In regard to China that will be.
widespread IN its application. Three
Cinnamon yesterday came to Dehoit
from Canada, and the commissioner in-
timated that Canada was the country
from whence they came and to which
they should be returned. Acting Secre-
tary Spaulding directed that they be re-
turned to China, and in discussing the
points raised by the United States Com.
missioner at Detroit, sent the following
telegram to the Collector there: 1.-THE
act Of September Is, 1888, is notin force,
as the treaty named in Section Nc. /
not ratified. The act Of August l3, 1890,
makes appropriation specifically for re-
turnlno to China all Chinese persons IL
legally in the United States. It is nae-
less to return them to Canada to cone
back tomorrow. The above act was ex-
pressly made 10 meet the difficulty. I'm
der it we return unquestioned to China,
as the country whence they came, Chi
nese coming from Mexico and British
Columbia, as they make the contiguous
foreign countries the avenue for reach
ing the United States. The Attorney
General gives the opinion that this action
is directly in the line Of carrying out the
expulsion act for which the appropriation
was made. It is the practice on the
Pacific coast, when the court finds Chi
namen illegally in the country, for the
marshal to turn them over to the collec.
tor at San Francisco for deportation to
China. The department sees no occasion

ing Saturday, is as follows, and is very
encouraging to farmers.
The rainfall for the past week has
been below the normal and badly dis
tributed. The temperature has been
above the average with very much OF
sunshine, all of which has been very
beneficial to all crops.
The cotton has improved very much
where it has been properly cultivated
but there are many gaps or missing
places which give it a ragged appear
ance, and that portion of the crop is
growing very rapidly and is now cov-
cred with blooms. A considerable por.
tion of the crop has been and still is
very grassy, and farmers are making
every effort to clean it this hot and dry
weather, Tut labor is very scarce. The
yield of an ordinary crop will, to great
extent, depend upon the success in get
ting rid of the grass in the next few
days.
The corn crop is now fair average,
but if drought should now set in,
which present appearances indicate, it
will be seriously injured.
There can be no doubt but that the
cotton crop is three weeks late, and it
will require good seasons from now on
to produce an average crop.
The rice crop. whilst but one half of
it was planted early, all of it is now
growing finely, and good stands have
been obtained.
