Prospect for Butter = nd Cheese.

The New England Homestead has some
thing TO say Of an encouraging nature con,
corning the future prospects for butter
and cheese. 1t says prices for butter have
ruled high, when decline in values might
reasonably have been expected. That this
is not the case is not due 10 large guam i
ties having been put in cold storage, a
less than usual has thus been disposed OF.
1t may be there is considerable amount
kept back by local creameries, but this is
not thought probable.
The market cen,ers have been well
cleaned up all stocks offering, and for
weeks it is said there has been Arm conf
dition with an upward tendency.
But there seems 10 be shortage some
where. which, up 10 the middle ofJuly,
amounted TO $50, 900 tubs in the Boston
and New York markets alone. With the
very favorable prices that have prevailed
thus far this summer, it does not seem
probable that there is any great reserve
anywhere outside OF the large market cit
les.
II there is not, with the summer hall
gone, there should be good prospect for
fair prices for the remainder Of the sea
son.
The American Cul'ivsior states that
dealers have been trying hard 10 convince
themselves and purchasers that receipts
will show q marked increase and prices
viii decline rapidly in consequence. But
there seems to be little prospect Of this as
yet. as receipts continue moderate. Spec
ulaiiye buyers have been Withdrawing their
orders, thus hoping TO break down prices.
but have not succeeded TO any extent.
The imports Of Canadian and American
cheese into the United Kingdom have
been heavier this year than last, but light
ter than in 1880 The London marke. is
almost entirely bare Of Of cheese, the only
stock being in the hands Of few direct
importers Owing TO this condition Of aft
airs the English buyers have been acting
cautiously. fearing ,ha. any sign Of ac'iyi,
iy on their part would create marked
advance in values on this side. Prices are
now from IL 10 cent per pound higher

Some Crop Notes.

AS one passes through the country the
unevenness Of the crops becomes apparent
The results Of the long continued season
OF rain are left in diminished crops on
most farms 1t is not only those upon the
streams that have suffered, but upon the
hills also The seeding was not comple'
ted before the rains commenced and they
continued until the the usual time for Gull
tivating the crop had passed
This made it very difficult attending to
the cultivation as it should be done, conf
sequently grass and weeds are prevalent
in too many fields The low spots in fields
where either under water, or so thorough
ly saturated with it and for 80 long, that
the result is either no crop at ell in these
places, or small. unhealthy growth, tina,
is and eye sore to the farmer and viii
amount to very little at harvest time. This
unevenness is noticed in about sll crops
and has been unavoidable under the Girl
cumstsnces.
Since the middle Of July there has been
little rain and this, with hot sun, serves
to dry and bake the soil, making the sur.
face hard and unfavorable for plant
growth. II this had occurred earlier in
the season and been followed with the cul,
tivator in the hoed crop, the effect would
not have been as bad
The fodder corn, especially, appears UNI
even in growth and in many fields small
A good season from now until late will be
necessary for the maturity Of the corn
crop.
OF course not all fields ere Of this desl
cription, but on most farms there are some
failures to note
Generally the hay crop will be large, but
it is phin to see that many fields require
attention to make them what they should
be.
The apple crop is not likely TO fill the
promise at blossoming time. A large am
cunt have fallen while small, SO they do
not appear to be very thick on the trees
II what remains will only be reasonably
perfect fruit, the loss in quantity may be
much more than made up in quality.

EVIDENCE AGAINST PECK.

A Great Mass of Charred Paper, Taken
from the Furnace, Shows COnclusively
That the Original Documents Were
Burned.
New YORK, September 22.-The Herald'S
Albany correspondent says in regard TO
Labor Commissioner Peck's case: The
real reliance of the prosecution is on the
burnt fragments Of paper taken from the
furnace which stenographer Rogers tenn
porarily turned into a creamatory.
Some Of these fragments have been pho
tographed for the Herald, and show clearly
that records Of Mr.. Peck's Office were de-
stroyed by burning. Among these frag-
ments are pieces unburned, OF the exact
color, texture and print of the forms sent
out by Mr.. Peck's bureau to collect infor-
nation for his tariff report appear parts OF
written answers TO his questions.
Some show the words infants wear"
indicating the industry TO which the query
was addressed. Others have the figures
1890 and 1891, showing the years embraced
in the inquiry BY far the most damaging
testimony is furnished by great mass of
the fragments that are too much cnarred
TO permit of photographing.
On these blackened pieces can be dis
tinctly read the names Of New York and
Brooklyn firms engaged in the woolen and
clothing business. At present these frag-
ments are held sacred, and are kept alike
from the air and the public gaze in the big
fIre-proof safe ia the District Attorneys

TIE SOCIAL FEATURE.
a Very Happy Ending OF the Big Gather
ing OF Old Soldiers.


WASHINGTON, ID. c., September 22.-The
leading social event of the week in honor
Of the Grand Army was the reception TO
the members Of the national encampment
given by the citizens of Washington, this
evening, in the spacious court Of the PEN
sion office building.
The committee having the reception in
charge had wisely restricted the invita-
tious 70 q limited number of citizens and to
the officers and Encampment. The crowd,
therefore, while large, was at no time nn-
comfortably so, and lOcOmOtiOn was easy.
The prominent officials and some OF the
other persons invited 10 attend the recep-
ton Assem- bled in the room of the COmmis-
siouer, and when the band played "Hau to
the Chief.n they marched down stairs and
took seats on the platform.
Vice-President Morton, who took the
Presidents place, was escorted by Mr.
JOhu.JOy Edison, chairman Of the Citizens
Committee, followed Oy eX-Presldent
HAYES, Secretary John W. Foster Post
naster-G General Wanamaker, Gen. John
Palmer, District Commissioner Douglas
and Private Secretary Halford.
After taking their places on the platform
Commissioner Douglas introduced Vice
President Morton, who delivered the
sDeech of welcome. When the applause
following his speech had subsidized Gen.
John Palmer responded at considerable
length.
When Gen. Palmer had finished his
speech there were loud calls for eX-Presi-
dent HAYES, Postmaster General Wana-
maker and Secretary Foster, each OF whom
responded briefly and happily. Refresh
mebts were served, followed later by a

THE sHREvE WRECK.
The List of Killed Was Correct-So Expla-
nation of How 1t Occurred.


PITTsBURG, PA, September %. -
The wreck at Shreve, Ohio, on the Fort
Wayne road yesterday was caused by a
blunder, but who was responsible for 1t
has not yet developed. Superintendent
Starr said this morning:
There was no confusion OF orders, as
there were no orders"
No one knows where the freight
pulled out, but the suppostion is that q
fast freight running between the limited
east and No. went by and the freight
crew mistook 1t for No. s. How such a
mistake should occur. Mr.. Starr does not
know, as he has not seen either the en-
gineer or conductor OF the freight train.
The list OF dead as reported yester-
day is correct. There were twelve
killed and as many more injured.
The fire completely wiped out all
trace OF baggage, express matter, mail,
and even some OF the bodies Of those
killed. There is not remnant or bone
TO be found OF one OF the postal clerks,
the express messenger, or the two ladies
going from Bucyrus TO Espeyville.
The financial loss ty the wreck can
not be estimated. 1t is reported that in
the mail burned there was about $780,
600. This is only what was in register
ed packages, since what was in letters
not registered nothing is known. The
express matter was all burned except
thirty-six silver bricks. worth at least
S75, 900. These were taken out OF the
fire yesterday afternoon. Probably fifty
or sixty pieces of baggage were detroy-
ed but what their value was the COM
pany as yet do not know.
A temporary track has been con-
structed. which enables trains TO pro-
ceed around the wreck. The bodies Of
those recovered were prepared for
burial by the company's undertaken at
Alliance. Not one of the bodies is
recognizable except by some marks or
articles found about where the remains
were thought to be.

Posses Securing the Country for tho Men
Who Wrecked the Santa Fe Express.

TOPEKA, KANSAS, September 22.-
Armed posses are now securing the
country In every direction for the mis-
creants who wrecked the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe express near Usage
City yesterday.
Further evidence has been secured
showing conclusively that the wreck
was well planned. Two through
freights had passed over the track with
in half hour OF the ill-fated passen-
ger train, the last one having preceded
the express train within five minutes.
In this short time the fish plates and
spikes had been removed.
The robbery theory Is undoubtedly
the correct one. II is impossible TO get
a statement from either the company
er the Wells Fargo people as to exactly
how much money was In the express
car.
The wounded passengers are rapidly
recovering this morning, except Mrs.
Mary Lyman, OF Bloomington, H., who
IL is feared will die.
