THE WORLDS WHEAT CROP.

Some interesting and important fig
urlng is being done now on the worlds
wheat crop OF 1892. In this country the
latest government estimate places the
crop at rather more than OO,000,00O
bushels. This is falling off of over
l00,000,000 bushels from last years crop,
or nearly One-half the total amount of
wheat we exported last year. Yet, not
outstanding this big reduction in the
crop, and i'll the face of the fact that
Europe Will require greater amount of
wheat from US this year than last year,
the price Of wheat in this country is
lower now by Is cents per bushel than
1t was year ago. Various explara-
uonS OF this circumstance are offered,
the most plausible being that their
disastrous experience of last year
has made buyers cautions about
loading up in expectation of scarcity
and consequent advance in prices.
In recent issue of the New York Sun
the following summary OF the foreign
crop Is given: India. a falling Off of
60,OC0.oO0 bushels from last years crop:
Australia and South America, Slight
falling Off; Great Britain. 100000
bushels less than lastyear; Italy. Spain,
Portugal and Hungary, Is per cent less
than last year; Northern Africa. Asia
Minor and areas skirting the Medter-
ranean, decided falling Off; Russia, to
10 per cent increase over last year;
Scandinavia, crops III great danger ow-
ing TO low temperatures. 1t will be OBJ
served that in Russia alone of all these
regions is there an increase over last
years crop, and even with this increase
Russia's crop will be below her aver
age. 1t is certain that Europe will make
heavy demands on US for wheat, and,
leaving unhealthfui speculative values
out or consideration, there should be an
advance in the price of wheat along the
line of the laws of supply and demand.

an example of one of the representative
men of the district to whom Mr.. Gable
owed his political honors, and who had
not been suitably rewarded for his labore
A dispatch from Monmouth tells of this
exploit or the part of Beaumont.
A sensation al occurrence took place in
this city this evening, occasioned by an
unwarrsntable attack on the person OF J
Ross Carpenter by Walter Beaumont. a
well known local republican politician.
Mr. Carpenter is the editor of a weekly
paper called Truth. an anii-saloon advo-
cate. Truth mad published several COM
municatiCns CT late that reflected against
Mayor Taylor, Beaumont and other cele-
brities. This evening Beaumont resolved
to wreak a wholesale revenge in the most
public part Of the city. He met Mr. Car
penter and Immediately drew a rawhide
and proceeded to severely punish him.
But the plucky editor not only resented
the attempt. but proved himself well
versed in the science of pugilism, as with
in few seconds his assailapt was dis
armed and severely chsstised. regardless
of Qneensberry rules.

~ through the lesfless limbs of the giant
trees of Spencer square, corpulent, fa-
millar figure, wrapped in great coat,
might have been seen silently vending
its way along Third avenue in the direc-

attached to this melancholy form, as with
measured stride it plodded on, but had
the observer cautiously peered beneath
the broad brim of the large sleuch hat
pulled low upon the head, face of il.
describable sadness would have been
seen. Hard lines OF care and
anxiety marked the once fair
and innocent features, while the
shadow of the hat rim together with the
gloom Of the gathering shadows of night
made the face picture of hollow mock>

the biting wintry wind the figure moved
along until it reached point opposite q
little old stone building on Third avenue,
about which clustered so many pleasant
memories of the lost and distant past.
Gathering his futtering rsiment about
his shivering form he stood, as the shades
of deepening gloom closed in about him
surveying the scene before him. The
low moan Of the ruthless March wind
sent SILVER through his very soul and

the locks Of long brown curly hair he
stood there the picture OF sadness.

Justice Slower Holds Peculiar Views Re-
Karding the Naturalization of Aliens.

BALLsToN, n. Y, October IS Justice
Slower, holding the Circuit Court here,
refuses naturalization TO aliens who can
not read and write the English language
and has rejected six applicants. One OF
the applicants, a native Of County Kent,
England, is more than 90 years OF age and
has been a resident of this county for %
years. In denying the application OF John
Griggs for naturalization, the sixth denied
at this term, Justice Slower said:
1T is no use 10 make such application.
I will not admit TO citizenship in courts
where preside,applicants who cannot read
and write the English language. Every
citizen should be able to read and write.
An alien asking naturalization must have
these qualifications before l will grant to
him a certificate Of citizenship. he should
be able to read the Constitution OF the
United States before he Is asked or allow
ed 10 take the oatn Of citizenship, and in
tend 70 adhere 70 this rule, whether, as in
this case, the applicant speaks the English
language as his mother tongue or whether
he is a subject Of one of the continental
nations, ignorant of our language, our Gus
toms, or our situation and our laws.
