BIG BREAK IN WHEAT.
Drop of Five Cents Makes Money M
PIungers.

PIungers.
CHICAGO, April 1.-The latter par<
of to-day's session on the board of trade
saw some of the widest times wit
messed on the floor in many months
There was break of nearly cents in
May wheat, and instead of Partridge
getting squeezed he pushed
the crowd hard and tcomes out
more than half million dol
lars better off =. than when wheat
was at the high notch (s5 5-S) of the
session. Just before close the price
had touched so 5-s, making a slump of
ga cents.
There was a rumor afloat that Par
bridge had lost 100000 oy buying
early in the day, but it was without
foundation and he has scalped the
crowd that went cunning for his hide.
He has sold more to-day than he
bought and asserts that his only fear
is that the crowd will not have enough
money left to buy his short line.

Value of Fertiliza rs

Plenty of manure is ESSENTIAL to all
crops, but there never was a time, on any
farm, when it did not pay, and pay well,
TO use fertilizers, also. Fertilizers that
are purchased bring something to the
farm and add to its fertility. They also
hasten crops, owing to the greater soiu-
bility Of the ditferen, elements composing
them.

Oats are slow at first, while Canada

+ lrly Beets.

For early beets plant the seed in the
ground as soon as it can be done, on light
soil which is deep and rich. The drills
should not be over an inch deep, as the
seed is slow to terminate, and requires
only slight covering. Soaking the seed
"A hours, and then rolling in plaster, will
hasten termination.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, August 6.-The
official count of the vote of the State be-
gan at noon to-day at the county seats of
the various counties. Contests were
entered in number of counties. Owing
to this fact little will be known as to the
official count to-day. The contests are
made over candidates for representatives
and the exact standing of the next legis-
lature will not be known until the count,
which began to-day, is finished. Serious
trouble is feared in several counties,
where the Kolb men are gathered in large
numbers to demand fair count.
MONTGOMERY, ALA, August 6.--The
result of the official count will not be
definitely known before Monday or Tues
day. From counties so far heard from
the returns in nearly every instance vary
slightly from the vote as originally an
nounced. Governor Jones' official ma
jority in this, his home, is 6,253, thu
largest in any county for either candi
date. The official count, when com
pleted, will, it is thought, conform to th'
estimate of ten thousand majority TO
Jones.

The Situation at Homestead /.

HOMESTEAD, Pa, August 6.-The day
is uneventful. Cash contributions from
all parts of the United Stetes and Can
ada continue to pour in. To-day COM
mittees left for the coal and coke regions
to solicit aid for the locked out men.
At the Office of the Carnegie steel COM
pany, Treasurer Curry said: cover 25
tons of first-class steel plate were turned
out yesterday in exactly the same time ii
would have taken our former employees
to do the work We are working on
twelve inch beams this morning, and
with the exception of the Bessemer OF
converting mill the twenty-eight inch
and new beam mill, our entire plant i:
in operation. There are now five rolling
mills in operation, both open hearth fur
naces are on, with one furnace in one anC
four in another, while six additional fur
naces will.be;charged Monday night. Th'
work being done in all departments has
thus far been wonderfully satisfactor!
and there is no longer any doubt abou
our ability to operate the entire plan
satisfactory with our new men. Thi
morning Mr.. Potter received Telegram
from Mr.. Morrison, of the Duquesn
mill, stating that all the men employees
in the mechanical department had re
turned to work and that on Monda
nearly all the old men in every depart
ment will be at work. He does not an

Mr. Oates in his report Blames both
Frfck and the wOrkmen.
By Telegraph to the State Chronielce.
WASHINGTON, August 6.-Mr Oates
report on the Homestead troubles which
were suppressed by the full committee
on the ground that it did not cover all
the ground of investigation says that had
Mr.. Frick stated the bottom facts to
the committee they would have agreed
that the proposition to reduce wages
were justiiable; but they took issue
with him in his conclusion that the tariff
did not cause the decline in prices Mr.
Oates finds further that the conduct of
the company towards its employees was
kind In many respects. 1t loaned them
money at low rates of interest to build
them houses and never foreclosed mort
gage, but in the negotiations the officers
did not exercise patience, indulgence and
solicitude, and Mr.. Frick, accord
ing to Mr.. Oates opinion, was
too stern, brusque and somewhat auto
cratic. Mr.. Oates is persuaded that if
Mr.. Frick had appealed to the reason of
the employees and shown the state of the
company's affairs, the reduction might
have been made and no trouble would
have followed. The Pennsylvania law
contains nothing to prevent Mr. Frick
employing Pinkertons as watchmen at
Homestead, but, says Mr.. Oates, condemns
their employment under the circum-
stances. He did not appeal to the coun-
ty or State authority in the first
instance for protection. He agrees that
sheriff McClary was a very inefficient
officer, but says that had Mr. Frick
aided and joined in his appeal to the
governor instead of employing Pinker-
tons, the State would have furnished
sufficient forces to have protected the
property. Mr.. Oates condemns as un-
lawful the acts of the workmen in turn
ing away the sheriff and in hanging in
effigy Messrs. Frick and Potter. He
says 1t was the purpose of the Amalga-
mated Association to prevent the en-
plOyment of non-uuion men. He de-
clares that no organization has a right tc
enforce its wishes by a strong hand in
defiance of law. The men had no lega
right to resist the coming of the Pinker
tons and are answerable to the Pennsyl
vania courts.
In conclusion Mr. Oates finds thai
Congress has no power over the question!
involved. The enactment of satisfac
, tory arbitration law is we'll nigh impossi
, BILE. AS to whether Congress has tn,
, power to regulate or suppress Pinkertons
Mr.. Oates says he has no conclusion t.
express until the completion of the inves
tigation next session.
