BUFFALO. March 20.-The fate of Clar-

step by step, and brought the murder to
their door by their own confessions. He
closed his address to the jury shortly be-
fore noon. Judge. Hatch then arose to
charge the jury. The charge was very long
and circumstantial, occupying nearly two
hours in delivery. During the delivery of

JUGGLED THE FIGURES.
Wheat stock Estimates of the Gov
ernment Sfatfstician Criticised.

CHICAGO, March 20-The Orange Judd
Farmer this week, in discussing wheat re-
serves and comparing it's estimate of 15i,-
100000 bushels with the government esti-
mate of 100000 bushels, will declare that
the government estimate is without author
ity of law or statistical experience, and
arbitrarily reduced the returns of his corre-
spondents by from fifty to sixty million
bushels. In proof of this it declares that
its returns and the government returns
come from the same class of people, subject
to the same influences. and their figures
of percentage of wheat on farms is but lit
tie more than half that returned to this
paper. The statistician Of the Orange Judd
Farmer was formerly assistant statistician
of the Department of Agriculture, and is
consequently familiar with the workings of
that office. If this charge Is true the gov
ernment correspondence the Farmer will
say, must have reported 1880 600 to $780,
100000 bushels in farmers hands March 1
instead Of 100000 bushels, as declared by
the bureau.

General McNu1ta Says.

CHICAGO, March 20.--Negotiations were
completed to-day which effect a combination
of all the whisky interests in the country
and practically assures the Spirits Distilling
Association, of which Receiver McNulta, of
the trust is chairman, absolute control of
the spirits output of the United States.
There was the receivers of the trust claim,

an Eastern concern with which satisfac-
tory settlement was reached The executive
committee of the Spirits Distilling Company
was in session to-day and in communication
with representatives Of the Eastern con-
Germ, VINO were meeting in New York. At
the conclusion of the meeting here General
McNulta, as chairman announced that
satisfactory settlement of differences had
been completed and that only the official
ratification of the opposing interests was
necessary to settle the affair. This, the
receivers claim, will effectualiy silence the
opposition to the distillfng association from
Cincinnati and the East and places the
whisky interests on firm and paying basis.
In an interview General McNulta said:
"The Spirits Distilling Association Is not a

prevent the enormous losses which have

SHOT BY A BURGLAR.
A Young Man Who WOuldn't Keep
Still Wounded by Robbers.

OBERLIN, o., March 20.-This evening, at
about half-past o'clock, Morton Waite,
son of George w. Waite, superintendent of
the public schools, was shot by burglar.
1t seems that the young man heard a noise
in the Kitchen and ON entering it he found
four men there bent on robbing the house.
One of them presented pistol to the
young mans breast and told him to keep
still. With quick movement he pushed
the pistol downward and It was discharged.
After shooting young Waite the burglar
threw his weapon at him, striking him
the eye, infiicting severe cut and knock
ing him down. The burglars then ran out
of the house. The injured mans wounds,
though very painful, are not OF dangerous
nature. When they made their escape the
burglars took the Lake Shore train, No. 81,
going west. Marshal Burge telegraphed
ahead to Norwalk to have them appre-
hended When the authorities tried to cap
ture them all attempted to escape and one
of the burglars was shot. The other three
are at large. The affalr has created great
excitement here.
