facturers had been served. Lawyer
Fromme had not been engaged until II
o'clock and was utterly unprepared for
the case He intimated that he would

When Mr.. Charles +. Rechers, who was
present. heard what the lawyer was going
TO do, he called him into the hall and
after n few minutes Lawyer Fr0mme
decided to ask 10 have the application for
an Injunction refused.

the plaintiffs which include nearly all the
leading clothing firms i'm New York. after
reviewing the general history Of the trou-
bles. asked that an injunction be issued

Weather Crop Bulletin.

LYNCHBURG, VA, March 29-The
following is weather crop bulletin No.
!. for the week ending Monday, March
-, 1893. issued from the central Office
Lynchburg Va. March rs 1S93:
During the month Of March. thus far
there has been only about one-third the
average amount Of rainfall during the
past seven days there has been generally
little or no rainfall, except towards the
southwest sections, where there has been
about half inch Of rainfall, ending with
light snow on Monday. Thus far the
temperature for March has averaged
about the normal; the coolest periods
were on the 4th TO 9th. and the 18th to
20th since the latter date the tempera
ture has been above the average for the
season.
Reports show that early sown winter
wheat has generally come through the
winter in fairly good condition, while the
late sown wheat was in rather bad con-
dition; both have improved considerably
during the past two or three weeks. The
comparatively dry weather during March
has permitted following to be prosecuted
generally, and some gardening has been
done even in the central counties. In
Roanoke county. above the average
amount of ground is being prepared for
spring oats and for corn. and in Surry
county the oat and potato crops have
been seeded.
The grass is beginning to come out rap
idly, and the buds are swelling The
continued cold. or comparatively cool,
temperature during the entire season
since the middle of November has no
doubt proved beneficial to the fruit buds,
and there is now reasonable good pros
pect for a good fruit crop of every kind.
1t is thought that every planter has been
enabled TO prepare and seed his
plant-beds. but all Of our correspond
ents failed to state the condition and
prospects for that crop; it is expected
that full report can be made on the
same next Week
