COLD AND DROUGHT.
Very Much Damage fias Been Done
TO the Wheat Crop.

WASHINGTON, d. g., May II. = The
May report of the Statistician of the
Agricultural Department. just issued,
after consolidating the returns, places the
conditions of wheat at S1.4. as against
sc the previous month. In 1893 at the
same date The condition was 1858, little
over two points lower than the previous
month. The averages for the principal
States are: Ohio. 90; Michigan. S5; In
diana. 90; Illinois. s5; Missouri. S3; Kan
sas, 75; Nebraska. SO. and California, 80.
While the improvement during the most
of April has been considerable in most of
the States. the result Of the cold weather
in March is shown to have been more than
was reported at that time. Advices from
Kansas and Nebraska indicate that the
damage from the cold weather has been
augmented by drought and high winds,
and much of the area has been abandoned
and plowed up and put in other grain. In
California the long-contnued drought,
accompanied a great portion of the time
by high winds, has proven very disastrous.
In other States the plant is doing very
well. considering the setback caused by
the cold weather.

Talks About the Carnegie Armor-

VIEWS ON THE sILvER:QUEsTIoN
He Saws the Presidents Policy Is
the Most Practical and
Conservative.

LovELocK, New May 10.-Secretary OF
the Navy Herbert, his private secretary.
his wife and daughter. in the private car
Mystic" passed here this afternoon en-
route to the coast. The Secretary is
affable, and appeared in excellent health.
He talked freely of the Carnegie frauds
ana the silver question. He had not OBJ
served the reports sent out that the com-
miltee Of investigation of the armor-plate
frauds would whitewash the Carnegie
Steel Company of any intention to de-
fraud, but said this matter would COM
mand his personal attention upon return
ing East. and incidentally alluded to the
fines imposed by the first expose.
Discussing the silver question and re-
ferring to the dislike exhibited toward
President Cleveland by people of the
silver States, he justified the executives
course by stating that in his opinion silver
can only be rehabilitated by International
agreement.
Would it not be feasible to have inter-
national bimetallsm without England's
cooperation ?" was asked.
NO." said the Secretary. England Is
the financial center of the commercial
world. Therefore such policy would be
impracticable."
He was of the opinion that when the
people of the West recovered from their
mad spell they would look upon the Presi-
dents silver policy as the most practical
and CONSERVATIVE.

WATERED THE STOCK.
How Willard Made One of His
Millions.
He Bought a Little Road and Sold 1t
for a Pretty Big
Price.

New YORK, May 10-The Investigation
into the affairs of the Northern Pacific
road was continued to-day before Special
Master Carey. NJ. d. Searle. vlce-presi-
dent of the Farmers Loan and Trust
Company, took the stand and placed in
evidence quantity of stocks and bonds
OF the various roads controlled by the
Northern Pacific. which had been de-
posted with the company as trustees for
the bondholders Of the Northern Pacific.
The only point of interest brought out
was the remark by witness in regard to
the certificates that $4,000, 900 of stock had
been issued bv the Rocky Fork and Cook
City railroad, when the capital stock of
the road was only $4,000. Mr.. Searles
had noticed this, but did not know how it
came about.
Alter recess the witness produced GER
tificates for 10000 shares of $1,000 each of
the capital stock of the Rocky Fork and
Cook City Railroad Conn any. for which
the trust company had not paid over
81, 100000 of Northern Pacific bonds,
placed in their hands for that purpose.
The object of this testimony is to help
show that Mr.. Willard and his associate
owners of the Rocky Fork aud Cook
County road stock. first increased it from
$3.50, 900 10 So. 100000 and then sold it to
the Northern Pacific for S1.402,000 in
bonds, which they at once sold in New
York and elsewhere at 80. thus getting
about S., 10000 IN cool cash for $40, 600
stock of small road.
E. Edes, secretary and treasurer of the
Rocky Fork and Cook City Company. was
called. He had no idea what had
become of the books of the old company.
He thought they were useless. and after

at the expense of the chairman OF the
Finance Committee when VOORHEES, inter-
Iupted him.

patience, "that the Senator from New
Hampshire is responsible for this un-
founded statement about stopping this

facts before he comes in here with state

other statements, they are beneath my
contempt"
Chandler complained with some temper
that be was entitled to courteous treat
ment. up to this time." said he with
emphasis, Il have always respected the
Senator from Indiana"
VOORHEES, made no reply, and the vote
was then taken on Allison's modified
amendments. 1t was lost. 1t was noticed
that Hill of New York, although present,
did not vote.
Jones Of Arkansas offered the first OF

the rate on boracic acid from 20 per cent

of California offered an amendment to
this amendment to make the duty cents

be said, was the pioneer State in the de-
velopment of the boracic industry. Over
5000 families were supported by the In
dustry. Under a protective tariff the
price had fallen from 25 to cents per
pound. A reduction of the duty to cents
would paralyze the industry.

statements that the amendments recently

half of the Democratic members of the

Strong Evidence Against the Assail-

Los ANGELES, May 10.-There is little
doubt now in the minds of the authorities
that Mrs. Silveria Luenas. who. was found
dead in her house at Wilmington on the
morning of April II. died from the effects
of beating received three days before at
the hands Of John Smith. against whom a
com plant will probably be filed to-mor-
row, charging him with manslaughter.
In looking around for evidence. three per-
sons have been found who saw Smith en-
ter the house on the evening that the
woman was so horribly beaten. There are
witnesses who will swear that they heard
the woman cry out, "Smith, let Inc up;
you are killing me-" Sheriff Cline has also
unearthed two persons who were ap-
preached by Smith who proposed the rob-
berry of John Hawkins, the aged baker.
