A YEARS HOMICIDES.

Statistics chow that during the
year 1891 there were no less than 6O0O
homicides committed in the United
States. 1t would be impossible, in
the absence Of any reliable informa-
ton on the subject, to form even an
approximate estimate OF tho number
of murders which called for the inn
position Of the death penalty. When
it is known, however, that there were
only lob legal executions, or fraction
moro than one in fifty, it is apparent
that the gallows has been cheated
ont of many victims. 1t is worth
noting that few as were the number
of hangings, they exceeded those of
any previous year during the decade.
In some sections of the country
there seems to be a growing senti-
ment against capital punish ment, or
or an indifference to the enforcement
Of the statutes for the punishment of
those who commit willful and deliber-
ate murder. Of the legal executions
ninety-six took place in the south and
twenty -s0ven in the north. OF these
. fifty two were whites, sixty-five ne
groes, four Indians, one Mexican and
one japanese. There were more per-
sons lynched than were judicially
hanged, the lynching footing up 1875,
of whom were women. or these III
were colored, GO white, Indian, 2
Chinese, and l Mexican. The south
produced 1859 lynchings and the north
26.
Various conclusions may be drawn
from these figures. An obviously
fair inference is that there is fright
full disregard Of the requirements of
the law as regards the crime of
murder, and that throughout
the south and in certain
, parts of the north there Is an irresist-
. ible inclination to visit summary ven
geance upon those guilty or Htrongly
suspected of certain grades OF offen-
ses. Whether society wonld be bet
ter protected by trusting to the
slow but orderly processes of
the law in such cases, espec-
tally in the south is a question
not easily answered. AS regards
the immunity from punishment of
hundreds of those who deserve to be
hung, it affords ground foI the argu-
: ment that capital punishment ought
to be ABOLISHED altogether. This IS
rash conclusion, however, since there
; is no telling to what extent homicides
might Increase in case the death
: penalty was removed.-[Salt Lake

The following report of the Philadelphia
Pig Iron market appears in the Pittsburg Man
ufacturer of the 21st. 1t fairly represents the
general state of the other markets; ''Pig iron
has shown a steady improvement, with con-
sumption now fully on par with production.
The sellers now feel that there is decided adj
| vantage with them, and in no instance are
| they ready to offer concessions nor to accept
| orders at present prices for long time con-
tracts. Rumors of an advance in standard
grades are in circulation, and notwithstanding
they meet with an emphatic denial, there is a
belief abroad that producers are about ready
for a change, and that next month 25 or so
cents advance will be made From the pres
ent outlook, however. no general advance will
be made until after the election, and probably
not until January unless production is sharp
ly contracted, when higher quotations will
certainly prevail. Still consumers do not seem
to appreciate the situation, and hesitate to
anticipate their requirements. As soon as it
is generally believed, however, that prices are
on firm footing and liable to advance, there
is every reason to believe that buyers will
come forward in full force. AS it is, there is
good steady demand for standard iron, with
prices uniformly firm. Southern pig metal is
now coming in more freely, and sellers have
been somewhat more successful in securing
business. Consumers are now inclined to the
opinion that the extreme low price heretofore
asked for all southern iron has about ceased to
exist and are ready to take it more freely at
the advanced figures. Taking the trade alto
gether firmer tone has been impaired to the
industry all around.

COMMERCIAL And FINANCIAL
THE GRAIN TRADE-CROPs. sc.


Moderate rainfall has given some relief in
portions of the West the past week, but not
in general way, and the effect of drought
conditions is still experienced throughout
large proportion of the agricultural districts,
further delaying seeding operations where not
completed, and retarding the development of
the plant where seeding mas been accomplish
ed
AS the season advances, there is an increas-
ing degree of complaint of injury to the wheat
crop by operations of insects, although this
condition has not reached point of unusual
proportions.
Should ample moisture in the near future
be experienced without severe freezing, the
| situation of the wheat crop would be quickly
improved, and become reasonably satisfactory
| in general way.
The weather has continued to favor the dry
| ing process for corn, and cribbing operations
have begun to some extent. Nothing has
developed to essentially change estimates Of
| yield of this grain.
| The past week shows further enlargement
in the marketing of wheat and marks the
highest weekly record in such matters There
are indications, however, that the tendency to
increase in the marketing of wheat has nearly
or quite eliminated, and thai reduction may
be looked for in the near future. There has
already been shown quite decrease in the
movement of winter wheat, and the indca-
tons are that further reduction may reason.
ably be looked for in the near future.
Under continuance of the large marketings
of wheat and the further decided increase OF
warehouse holdings the speculative markets
have ruled easy during most of the week, and
values have suffered some decline. This ten.
dency has been partly due to sentiment re
sulting from reports of rain in winter crop re-
gions.-Ci Cincinnati Price Current.

New York's Registration.

CHAIRMAN HARRITY NIGHTLY PLEAS
ED OVER THE OUTLOOK.
NEW YORK, Oct 20.-Chairman Har-
rity and his associates at national
democratic headquarters are well pleas
ed with the registration in this city and
Brooklyn yesterday. They say that it
is large enough to show that the Demo-
Gratis are fully aroused, and the local
leaders intend to get out full vote of
the national ticket. Chairman Har-
rity says that New York is all right,
and the heavy registration confirms
him in his statement. While both par
ties are making greater efforts in this
State than in any other portion of the
United States, the Democratic mana
gers declare that they are not overlook
ing any part of the battlefield.
Among the callers at headquarters
to-day was Speaker Crisp, of the House
of Representatives. He has been on an
extended tour throughout the South,
and reports everything in that section
in the line of politics, as being highly
encouraging to the Democrats.
At the Republican State headquar-
tiers, Chairman Hackett said he was not
at all alarmed at the result of yester-
days registration. He said the in
creased registration was not at all en-
tirely Democratic, and quoted some
figures to substantiate his statement.
Mr. Cleveland remains in his rooms
at the Victoria Hotel nearly all the
time attending to his correspondence
He sees very few callers. He will make
his next public appearance at tie meet
ing to be held at the Cooper Union or
he night of the 9th instant.
