agriculture issued yesterday says: Dur

the weather was much more favora BILE

Wheat is recovering slowly and looks

sown wheat suffered most from the
freezing weather in March. In few
instances winter wheat has been
plowed up and the ground prepared
for corn.
The greater portion of the oats sown
early in March has been killed and re-
sown or the ground plowed for corn.
Late sown oats are growing slowly. In
the northern portion of the state farm

pairing corn ground, and some have
commenced planting. In the coal and
southern counties planting is we'll in

Not q Wheel Turning In the Yards at
Seattle.
SEATTLE, Wash, April 1.-THE
Great Northern railway yards were as
quiet as a graveyard yesterday, not a
wheel turning nor any freight being
hauled.
An offer was made by the strikers to
take out the mail cars, but the offer
was declined. Local officers made no
attempt to get men to take the strik-
ers' places and apparently none will
be made until after conference in St.
Paul with the chiefs of the railway
employees unions. There is small
landslide on the coast line, but
Superintendent Copeland could not get
crew to go out and clear it away.
At a general meeting of railway en-
ployes on all the lines it was deter
mined to uphold and sustain the Great
Northern men in their strike. 1t is
confidently expected here that gen.
eral strike on the transcontincntal
lines except the Union Pacific will be
ordered before the end of the week I'M

What 1t VIII Cost to Look After the We'll
fare OF the Indians.
WASHINGTON, April 17.-Although
the committee on Indian affairs, for
the first time, yesterday morning sub
mitted the general Indian appropria-
tion bill to the full committee, no
.efinite action was taken upon it and
the bill has been variously described
and summarized heretofore. The to-
tai amount carried by it is s6, 455, S66
This is a material reduction, not only
from the amount of the current appro-
priation bill, but also from the esti-
nste of the secretary of the interior,
as to the amount needed Secretary
Smiths estimate asks for Sc, 993, 1856
The appropriations now current amount
to 81, 125, 596.
There are several interesting features
in the bill which have not been gener-
ally discussed. For instance, the sum
of $780, is appropriated to pay the ex-
penses attendant upon the purchase of
supplies for the Indian service. Here
tofore this amount has always been
$50, 900. There is in connection with
this item a clause in the bill which
provides that the principal depot for
purchasing supplies shall be located at
Chicago. The bids shall be opened
there The bill abolishes the office of
superintendent of Indian schools, re-
duces the number of special agents
from five to three and the inspectors
from five to two.

WASHINGTON, April 16-Foreman
Charles r Cole, of the civil court jury,
at 4:45 o'clock Saturday afternoon
announced a verdict for the plaintiff,
Madeline Pollard, for $4,000 damages

speaking of this discussion afterward,
Col
displayed fully as great a familiarity
with the points of the testimony as had
been evidenced by the lawyers in their
arguments. They laid the case fully
before the obdurate juryman, called
for the grounds on which he based his
belief, and were finally able to over.
come him by sheer force of logic.
The next question to be settled was
the figure at which the damages should
be rated and upon this matter there
was the widest possible difference.

amount sued for $50, OOO) should be
awarded. Foreman Cole said that
verdict of 81 would vindicate Miss Pol

GENTLY, and he thought it was unnec-
essary to impose any great financial
punishment upon him. Discussion of
this matter followed until the usual
course was adopted, each juror writing
the amount he considered just upon a
slip of paper and a balance being struck.
The amounts ranged from 81 to $50, 900,
and S15, 600 the average.
The jury returned their verdict for
the latter amount and the defendant
gave notice that he would move for a
new trial.

bettered by the result of the case is
not probable, because it is we'll under

Trouble In the Coke Regions.
CONNELLsvILLE, Pa, April 1a-The
scenes around the Wheeler and Nor
fell works last night revived memories
OF the riotous proceedings when the
strike was inaugurated. Mobs OF
strikers marched up and down
the roads between the two plants
and those who went to work
yesterday were besieged by hordes
of Hungarians and Slavs. Fires
were built and kept up all night The
besieged workmen were frightened al
most to death. Many of them offered
to surrender and join the strikers, but
their wives and families dissuaded
them from this action. A large body
of deputies arrived yesterday and will
guard the works as long as there is
danger. Engineer Simmons and
Charger Joseph Ashton, who were
brutally beaten yesterday, are
now, in critical con-
dition. Their assailants will be ar
rested. Despite the disorder at the
Wheeler and Morrell plants the strike
is over and next Saturday will see the
entire region at work under the Frick
scale. The leaders say the order for q
general strike next Saturday will not
be observed in the coke region, as no
aid was given the cokers in their late
strike

protection, but between capitalism and
