Everything in Readiness for the Great

FORTRESS MONROE, April l7.-Before
3 o'clock this morning Col. Frank, com
mandant of the army post, was informed
by Rear Admiral Gherardi that the Brit
ish vessels expected to take part in the
coming meeting and naval review were
coming from the Capes and that they
would be along in an hour. This was
a notification to stand by to salute the
visitors after they had fired twenty one
guns in honor OF the American colors
and the fort was prompt in doing this.
Many of the hotel visitors were awak-
ened by the terrific bombardment which
en- sued and the reverberation Of the big
guns of the Blake and the answers that
came back quickly from the military
post and the flagship Philadelphia
Hardly had the smoke disappeared from
the muzzle of the guns when the Blake
began series of salutes to the French,
Russian, and italian flags. During these
ceremonies the flags of all the ships
were constantly changing from one
country to that Of another. The appear

LATE SPRING EVERYWHERE.

Government Crop Reports Show that Mon
tana Has Lots of Company This Year.
WASHINGTON, April lS.-The govern
ment weather crop bulletin says "The
week ended April II has been cooler
than usual except in the south Atlantic
states and in the vicinity of the lower
lakes, where slight excess in tempera-
ture was reported. The greater portion
of the wheat belt, which was deficient
in moisture last spring, received during
the week from one to two inches more
than the usual amount of rainfall, and
although some damage is reported from
floods in Tennessee the increased moist
ure is likely to prove favorable in this
region. The spring wheat region also
received about one inch more than the
usual rainfall, but in this section the
moisture was already in excess. Gener-
ally the week was cold and not favorable
for farm work throughout the principal
agricultural states except in the eastern
portion of the cotton region, where the
weather was generally favorable for farm
work, but where rain is needed.
Special telegraphic reports:
Wisconsin-But little farm work has
been done the last week owing to freez-
ing weather. The season is, however,
ten days early; all crops and conditions
are favorable; cranberry vines wintered
well.
Minnesota--Snow on the ground to
the northwest; nothing done and little
progress made elsewhere; soil too wet
and cold; potatoes being planted in
the southern COMMITTEES; weather during
the week has been very unfavorable for
seeding.
Iowa-In the southwest district dry,
cold winds have injured winter wheat +;
seeding practically complete; plowing
iC progress; corn planting begun in
southwest district.
North Dakota Excessive precipita-
ton and low temperature have stopped
all work; seeding will be resumed this
week should the weather be favorable.
South Dakota Seeding and other
farm work retarded by wet, stormy and
freezing weather; bottom land wet.
Nebraska-Small grain mostly sown
but terminating slowly and unevenly.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. has not started
to grow.
Wyoming GRAIN very slow in start
ing; farmers preparing for planting in
most sections.
Idaho-Cold, stormy week: unfavor-
able for farm work and injurious to
crops, blowing and seeding slowing pro-
crossing.

The PEOPLE WIN.
Moved by the Prospect Of lnsurrection
the Belgian Chamber Enacts
Universal Suffrage.
Electrical Effects of This Action ON
the Pe0ple-!lOw the Disor-
der Was Spreading

BRUSSELS, April 1S.-The chamber of
representatives reassembled today after
the preparation of a report on the revis-
ion of the constitution, and by vote of
l19 against II, with fourteen not voting.
adopted universal suffrage, with pro-
vision for plural voting by classes own
ing property according to amount and
situation of property. Cheers within the
chamber were followed by prodigIous
acclamations from the enormous crowd
that awaited the result of the voting
ontside the chamber.
The greatest enthusiasm was displayed
everywhere and the people joined in a
jubilee in honor of the great triumph
which they had achieved. 1t is expected
that the decision in favor Of universal
suffrage will have an allaying effect upon
the popular excitement and agitation
which had been rapidly assuming the di-
mensions of a general insurrection. The
dread OF a terrible uprising of the people
similar to that Of the French revolution
in its resistless rage against privilege
and power had the etfact of bringing the
chamber Of representatives around to
the popular side. There is no doubt in
many minds that had not the chamber
acted promptly there would have been
revolution in Brussels.
In view of the action of the deputies,
the labor leaders res jlved at meeting
held this evening to advise the abandon
ment Of the general strike. At the same
time they decided to issue to the people
manifesto against the Nyssen bill
which proposes a combination of plural
voting and universal suffrage. The lead
ers will urge the people TO follow up
their victory by agitating increasingly
for universal suffrage pure ard simple.
The police and workingmen have had
several encounters this evening and six
rioters have been seriously injured.
Nevertheless the end of the riots is be-
lieved to be near. The decision of the
labor leaders 20 abandon the strike has
has produced general feeling of relief
The police have worked night and day
and are completely exhausted. Were
the strike and riots 10 continue few
days more the preservation of order
would be left entirely to the military, as
the police could not endure the strain
forty eight hours longer. Many arrests

Farmers Disappointed.

ST. PAUL, April ia Pioneer spec
ial from Northcote, Mimi, says: 1t has
been showing necessarily for fifteen
hours and is still at it. The storm will
delay the beginning of seeding till the
last of the nonth. Indications are that
the Red river from Grand Forks to Win
repeg will be higher than in 1882. a
Pioneer Press special from Benson says:
Beginning with this morning it has
showed steadily all day until about six
inches has fallen. 1t will be week at
least before seeding can be resumed an
der most favorable circumstances, and
farmers are feeling quite disappointed
in consequence, not one-quarter of their
work being done.

New YORK, April 1.-THE queerest
railroad train seen in many years drew
out of the Pennsylvania depot at 10
o'clock this morning amid the cheers of
big crowd of curiosity seekers. The
engine is the first railway locomotive
used on this side of the Atlantic. 1t is
called the "John Bull" and started this
morning to puff its way laborIously to
the worlds fair, where it will be an OBJ
ject of wonder to millions. The coaches
look like stage coaches on railway
wheels. The engine driver, A. s. Her
bert, drove the "John Bull' in 1852. j.
W. Sandford, the fireman, was in 1865.
The other railroad men on the train are
equally ancient.
