Was Last December.
CHICAGO, April The winter wheat
area is the smallest in fifteen years,
1000, 600 acres less than in 1885 and
more than mill on less than In 1879.
The price is 10c under anything. ever
heard of until last years panic There
is now the further contingency of win
ter killing from a March of record
breaking extremes. There remain,
however, to restrain response by the
market to these influences toward
higher prices, all the Old circumstances
which brought around such low prices.
Foreign markets are as weak as ever,
although not as glutted with stocks as
they were. Liverpools supply is just
half what it was last December. The
Chicago stock has not begun to increase
very fast. There are reasonable
fears about the quality of some of the
grain The visible supply is still OPP
pressive, although decreasing at a
faster rate than was ever known for
the time of the year, the decrease for
March being 5 100000 against a de-
crease last March of 1850, 900, and a
decree Sc March, 1899, of 10000 There
is approaching a May liquidation which
will quite certainly be wided out and
make it more difficult to prevent de-
crease In the May price.

Laborer and His Hire.

OMAHA, April 2 The American Rail-

explanation or Miss krteg's Attack on DR..
Prescott at Dallas city.
DALLAS Cry, ILL.,, April 9 When Miss
Kate Krieg, one of the popular young
ladies of this place, met DIR. Harry Pres
colt at church a few DAYS ago and
smashed her umbrella on his face, the
gossips of the town were set talking
The incident occurred while the Young
doctor was escorting Miss Carrie Burg
to church. Miss Krieg and DE-. Prescott
had formerly been keeping company,
and jealousy was supposed to be the
cause of the attack. Ii has since devel-
oped that Misunderstanding arose be-
tween them and Prescott told Miss
Krieg something that a mutual friend
had told him. Miss Krieg told Dr..
Prescott she would face this mutual
friend, who proved to be Miss Carrie
Burg.
The opportunity presented itself at
church and the three persons met Miss
Burg denied having made the statement
to Prescott and he denied making it to
Miss Kreig, thereby implying that Miss
Kreig was lar. AT this Miss Kreig
struck Prescott singing blow in the
eye, and Prescott started to leave
church in company with Miss Burg. As
he moved away he made sighting re-
marks about Miss Kreig and the lady

head. The affair caused no little talk
on account of the prominence of the
parties.

EAGER TO WRECK A TRAN.
Repeated Attempts Made Against the

Repeated Attempts Made Against the
Grand Trunk at AipswOrtb, Iud.
VALPARAISO. Ind, April 9.-Some per.
son or persons at Ainsworth seem TO be
determined to wreck a train on the
Chicago and Grand Trunk railway at
that place. The repeated attempts
made pear that town are giving the
railroad men considerable trouble, as
they do not know when the would be
bandits will succeed in their nefarious
work. Two weeks ago a number of
ties were uek into a cattle guard with
the ends up. The engineer of the east
bound limited saw the obstruction in
time TO slow up and save the train,
though the locomotive was thrown
from the track and seriously damaged.
A few nights Ego another attempt was
made at the same place, this time the
woodwork of the cattle guard being
burned our, leaving the rails spanning
the gully without support. The west
oound dashed over the gully, the rails
giving away just af,er the last car had
passed Only the tremendous speed
of the train saved 1t from a wreck. A
man, whose name is unknown, was
seen near the cattle guard about the
time of the fire and the officers has
started a search for him.

1t is now a settled fact that the Jer-
sey Central will be given share of the
traffic from Van Wickle's Coleraine
colliery as soon US the new branch is
finished. The ground for sidings has
already been surveyed at Tresckow,
and as both roads run parallel for
distance and at the same grade there
will be no expense incurred further
than laying few switches and several
hundred feet of track where empty and
loaded cars can be stored. Having the
Jersey Central, the Lehigh Valley and
the Philadelphia and Reading lines to
furnish them with cars and transport
shipments to tidewater, the Coleraine
eolliery can work overtime the year
around. Superintendent Kaerchor
stated recently to Hazleton Standard
reporter that with the contemplated
Improvements consumated, which is
chiefly the opening of four large strip.
pings. the plant will readily send 1900
tonsof coal day to market.
The foundation walls for mammoth
breaker are being constructed near
Llewellyn, Schuylkill county, by the
Albright Coal company. The coIliery
will be q model of perfection when
completed and will have a shipping
capacity of over 2. 900 tons day. Il
r. Griffith. Of the Exeter Machine
works. at Pittston, furnished the de.
signs for the new plant and they are
modern in every way. The site of the
new breaker is at Silvsrton eolliery and
only a short distance from Llewellyp.
The new enterprise will boom that town
and give great number of idle men
employment.
It is only as there is a nearer an
proach to coal consuming weather, saws
Saward, that the anthracite coal trade
can be recorded as in better condition
or likely to be so The production Of
coal dnring the months of June and
July was such as to dissipate all the
possibilities of good trade for the sea-
son of 1894 The restriction which has
been put in force during the month Of
August, and which should be con-
tinued for some time forward-say two
months longer-is hardly sufficient to
enable the producers to keep the price
which has been made, or to attain
thereto. Wherever one goes the supply
of coal in the yards and the usual
places Of deposit is quite large; some Of
the'retailsrs claim that they have made
the;usual delivery. while Others are OF
theopinion that there Is good trade
throughout the winter months. 1t is
to be hoped that the latter are the
