CORN IS KING IN MEXICO.
Three Hundred Pounds Worth S1f-No
Blockade South OF the Rio Grande.

Three Hundred Pounds Worth s1f-No
Blockade South OF the Rio Grande.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 3.-Senor
Yarba of the City of Mexico is in the
city for the purpose of buying 800 or
1000 cars of corn for Mexican import
ers as soon as the railroads are in
condition to handle it. Senior Yarba
says that there is no blockade at
Laredo, as has been often stated
and that when he passed through there
the other day there was not more
than 200 cars on the track, but that
everywhere this side of Laredo, on the
International and Great Northern and
Missouri, Kansas and Texas roads, there
were cars of corn filling every side
track
Senior Yarba says the Mexican
Central is the only line which can
handle stuff just now. The Mexican
Central has been charging 60 cents
from the border to the City of Mexico,
but Senior Yarbn has advices
that the rate is to be cut to
As cents. He also says it is under
stood that the Mexican National,
which has been making rate of 3l.27
cents, is going to advance its rate. II
this be done it will turn the great rush
from Laredo and give Ell Paso the bulk
Of the business.
Senior Yarba says "La Junta Bena-
ficia" is still distributing corn to the
poor free three times Il week and the
demand is just as great as ever. He
says in the City Of Mexico corn is sell
ing at Sl1 for 300 pounds.
In the opinion Of Senior Yarba the
Mexican government will not restore
the duty on corn on December /, the
date now. set. According to the
present programme, said he, "a
tariff of about 25 per cent OF
the regular tariff will be put on
December l, and the regular
tariff will be put on January /, but
they need the corn therc--they must
have it--and it is my opinion that the
government will decide to give an ex-
tension of time again, probably for
six months"

tIons-CrowtIed Theaters.

inc Death OF Bandmaster Gilmore
TaIr Week and Its Special Attrac.
tIOns-Crowded Theaters.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 3, 1s92.--The death Of
Gilmore was felt like personal be-
reavement by the people of St. Louis.
He was doubtless one of the greatest
bandmasters of the world. No other
musical director has ever tried to take
with him on tour band of the size
he had at the exposition. There are
1o1 men in it, every one of them mu-
sicians who command lapge salaries.
The band will remain with the expo
sition till the close of the season, di-,
rected by Sergeant Charles w. Freud
envoIl, who has been leading with
Gilmore for sixteen years. The organ
ization has been such financial as
well as musical success that it will
probably not break up, and the chances
are that it will supply the exposition
music next year, as contracted for by
the late Col. Gilmore.
The great week of the fall festivities
draws near The city is crowded with
visitors, and the scenes on the streets
on the nights of the illumination are
most interesting. Every Thursday here
after till October 20, the principal streets
will be made brilliant with the long
rows of lights, and the beautiful
pictures in electric flame. Saturday
night, Oct. l, the Yelled Prophet and his
retinue will arrive by boat, and
escorted by the military of the
city will march to the exposi-
ton and parade through the aisles.
The following Tuesday night
the Prophet will appear ON
the streets with his famous tableaux
parade The subject to be illustrated
by a score or more of floats, each one
of which carries generally from FIVE to
dozen figures in costumes, is yet
mystery. 1t is never made known till
the day of the parade. The st Louis
fair, the biggest thing of the kind in
the West, will open Oct. and last till
the end of that week. The Thursday
of this week is always declared a half
holiday in tie city and the gate regis
tiers show invariably that more than
hundred thousand people go out to the
grounds on that day. From now till
the last of October the railroads will
make rates of extraordinary cheapness
into the city.
The seven principal theatres of the
city have suspended their free lists,
and the pass system will not be re-
sumed till about the end of the month.
Every one of them is crowded nightly
from gallery to dress-circle, and in
those where there is some very popu-
lar play the sign "staAding-room
only is hung up before the curtain
rises. There is always a great scram-
BILE among the companies to get booked
in st. Louis for the last week in Sept,
and the first one in Oct, and they arc
willing to offer the theatres high
premiums for the privilege None but
the very best of companies can afford
to pay the theatres the rates they de-
mand for these weeks, and the result
is one much to the advantage of tn,
stranger who drops into town about
that time.
