AGAIN FOR ATLANTIC CITY.
The Third Excursion Next Thursday.

The Third Excursion Next Thursday.
The excursion to Atlantic City over
the B. & 0. have proved more popular
than ever this season. The third one
will leave here on Thursday of this
week There will be two excursion
trains that day, one at 5:l5 in the morn
ing and another at o'clock In the even
ing. There will be one or two
extra sleepers on the evening train, and
a parlor car on the morning train. Par
ties desiring accommodations in the
sleepers should secure them at once by
kalling upon Ticket Agent t. G. Burke
at the 3. & 0. depot. There will
doubtless be a large party go on this
excursion, and il would be well to Sc
cure berths without delay. There will
be a fourth and last excursion TO Allan
tic City on the 2jth on the
same conditions. IL is hard to
see where SO could be better invested
in summer recreation. A large degree Of
pleasure is obtained in these jaunts to
the seaside over the Baltimore 81 Ohio
by views of the country en- route, than
which there is none more picturesque
or richer in historical interest.
Tickets will be valid for return
Journey for twelve days from day of sale,
also to stop off at Philadelphia for the
night of August 18th, aud will be good
on all regular trains. On return
Journey they will be good to stop off at
Washington, thus affOrding an oppor-
tunity TO visit the numerous public
buildings, and to take trip down the
Potomac to Mt. Vernon, as well as TO
visit other places of interest in and
near Washington.

THE WHEAT CROP.

The following statistics gathered at
the expense of considerable labor by the
New York Sun are of interest:
The indications now point 70 yield in
Minnesota and the DakOtas aggregatng
anywhere from l00.00O0OO TO l2O,OOO,UOO
bushels, ell depending, however, upon
whether frosts hold OF until the later sown
spring wheat natures the small yield
which is ali that is now possible.
state reports and other credible authorl-
ties show that the winter wheat areas, as d
whole, are not likely to give more than an
average yield; and that the spring wheat
region win produce below the average. AS
suming that the area sown 20 both varieties
EQUALS hat of 1891, the indications are Tor
an aggregate out-turn of about $50, O0O,OOO
bushels, being some 1872 100000 less than
the reported product of 1891, and showing
likewise that the eXportable surplus, IRON
the crop Of 1892, will be about l4O,OOO,OOO
less, as domestic requirements have IN
creased fully 100000 bushels since last
year.
Whatever surplus, beyond the normal re-
serve, may remain from the crop or 1871,
will augment the amount available Tor eX-
port; out this is one of those unknown
quantities which cannot be estimated with
the least degree Of confidence.
The situation abroad presents as great
a change from that of 1891 as does that
in America. The Sun says;
India has a crop about 60,00O,0O0 below
that Of last year; South America and Aus
tralia together, crops that pro0aoiy DO
not differ materially out are rather below
than above those of 1891; while the crop Oh
Asia Minor, Northern Africa, Greece, and
Bulgaria are decidedly inferior to those OF
last year, The harvests also OF Italy,
Hungary, Spain, Portugal are from ten TO
fifteen per cent below the product gather
ed in 1891.
The wheat area in Great Britain is so
much less than last year that the product
will DE from S,000,000 10 10,O0O,OOO bushels
less. Ia Scandinavia the temperature has
been so very low and rains so excessive as
70 cause grave fears as to the rpening OF
all the cereals; while, on the other hand,
draught and unequal distribution OF the
rainfall have brought crop failure over
wide Russian areas, the indication being
that wheat and rye will both be below an
average, although from hve to ten per
cent better than last year.
The promise, summed up, is that
while America will have an average
wheat harvest Europe's harvest will be
below the average.

The building stril,a Broken.

New YORK, August S.-A general strike
of the building trades which was begun
two weeks ago in sympathy for the union
material deiiverers, who had blocked out
by the Building Material Dealers Associ-
alton because they refused 10 deliver sup
plies to the buildings for which the Iron
League held contracts, will probably end
today. The walking delegates have met
defeat in q strike involving nearly 10000
laborers twas rumored that the Board
of Walking Delegates held meeting eth

had decided to call the strike of. This
morning the Trainers Union, comprising
nearly 1900 men, decided TO give up the
struggle and returned to work, and allied
trades are about resumed.

THE SOCIAL MAZE.
What Is Going on in Festive Circles About

There was another jolly affair at the
home of Miss Rose Lukens, on the

young gentlemen conceived the idea OF
making their party calls simultane-
ously, and when the situation was dis
covered number of young ladies were
invited in, and the ball was soon rolling.
One of the young ladies agitated the
worries, and made excellent dance music.
Miss Lukens re-established her reputa

Lieutenant Terrell Has a Lively Chase
After q Thief


While the athletic sports were In
progress at st. Alphonsen's picnic on the
State Fair grounds yesterday afternoon
fellow slyly walked up TO a man by
the name of Charles Zimmerfelt, and
snatched the watch from his vest,
swapping the chain at the same time.
The thing was done so quickly that
10 one seemed to realize the situation
until the thief had started to run of.
Lieutenant Terrill happened to be near
the scene, and was quickly apprised OF
the theft He saw the fellow about 200
yards off, on the dead run, and quickly
made for him, followed by half hun
dred other persons. He ran toward the
grand stand, and suddenly darted
through the board fence just
back of the grand stand, pre-
sumably to make for the Ohio
shore. But as soon as Lieut.. Terrill
got on the other Sideyof the fence there
was neither hide nor hair to be seen or
the thief, and no clue Of him was OBJ
tanned, despite the search through past
ures, woods and corn-tields By fully a
hundred devoted followers. But the
shrewd rascal successfully eiuded them.
Upon the return to the Fair grounds
the report was started that the thief
had again got into the grounds and was
Just then out near the refreshment
stands. Lieut.. Terrill then made anoth-
er break in that direction. Improved to
be the thief, but how he got back into
the fair grounds was mystery. He
dashed across the grounds and jumped
over the board fence just back Of the
agricultural building, climbed down
over the reQks, and ran like deer along
the shore and then diSaddeared. Lieut..
Terrell followed over the fence,
and crowds after him, but
again the fellow eluded the crowd.
This time 1t was given up, although
quite a search was made along the
water. Lieut.. Terrill was reeking with
perspiratlon when he got through He
made gallant fight for his game, and
worked with great persistency, but the
fellow was too tieet-footed. 1t was
rumored that another watch was stolen
and also one Of the money drawers con-
tanning $40, but no cleW TO the thieves
was obtained,

The National Convention of the Carpen-
ier's brotherhood Demand that the Fair
BE Opened on Sunday.

BE Opened on Sunday.
ST. LOUIS, Mo, August s.-The
Brotherhood Of Carpenters and Joiners,
in national convention here, to-day
adopted q resolution in regard 10 the
Worlds Fair at Chicago, demanding OF
Congress the repeal of the clause OF the
act recently passed closing the Fair on
Sunday; also calling upon the Worlds
Columbian Exposition Directory at Chi
cago TO use all means in its power to
keep said exposition opon, thereby keep
ing faith with the people from whom
they have solicited and received sub
scriptions, and calling upon all labor
unions Of the craft to use every honor
able means in their power to compel
their representatives. in the House OF
Congress to vote for the opening OF said
Worlds Columbian Exposition.
1t was further resolved that in the
opinion of the convention it will be
wiser, from a moral standpoint, that the
exposition should be open on Sunday
than that strangers visiting the city OF
Chicago should be compelled to run the
gauntlet OF the numerous saloons, con-
fidence games, brothels and gambling
bells, which already, in anticipation OF
q large harvest, are establishing them
selves in that city.

The West Virginia Republicans have

Governor, named Davis. Stephen b.
Elkius positively declined TO run, show
ing he has no faith in his prediction,
that the State will go Republican in
November. West Virginia was very
close in 1888; but since then it
has profted by the splendid Guberna-
torial management of Gov. A. B..
Fleming, and also by excellent and pro-
gressive Democratic legislation, to which
Governor Fleming contributed no little
by his influence; to which influence and
his fine administrative talent, the Dem
ocracy at large owes a debt Of gratitude;
for these have made Republican success
there impossible.

A Vexea OaestIon.

Repre- sentatives Of the Laughlln and
Junction Iron Company and commit
tee OF workmen will have conference
to-day over the question of whether
there shall be twelve hours shifts or
eight hours shifts on the steel plant.
The question for the conference to de-
eide involves the throwing out OF en-
ployment thirty men. In case eight
hour shifts are adopted, it means the
employment Of nearly 100 additional
men; IL twelve hour shifts, then ii
means shat thirty men will have TO quit.
This state of affairs has been brought
about by new labor saving ma
chinery which displaces labor. This
question has been agitating the
men for some time, and they have been
trying to arrange so none will have TO
Quit work. In case eight-hour shafts
are the rule it means the cutting down
of the wages earned by the men. Ev-
erything is ready in the nail depart
ment to start next Monday, and If the
scale is signed to-day the nail depart
ment will start The rolls and steel
works can be gotten ready in week
One furnace is out of repair, but part 1
the rolls can be shut down until the fur
mace is fixed up. Neither men nor Off
Gals anticipate any trouble over the
scale except touching on the questions
mentioned.
