ASSA ULTED n BICTCLIST.
Two Italians Attack n Wheelman Near the
Washington Arch.

Henry Lamont, 81 years old. left his home at
70 Macdougal street yesterday morning at l
o'clock for a ride on hls bicycle. He went up
Fifth avenue, and on passing the Washington
Arch he noticed two men directly In his path.
He turned to get out of their way, but he says
they followed and dragged him from his wheel
and kicked him. He managed to get on his feet
again and began to fight back. when one of the
men struck him on the right arm and the other
on tho left wrist. Here policeman appeared
and arrested the two men. Lamont went to st.
Vincents Hospital and had his wounds dressed.
At the station house the prisoners said they
were James Con of 227 East Fifty y-ninth street
and Louis Bartengate Of 10 Park row. They
are prosperous looking Italians, and had more
than 500 between them. They were taken to
the Jefferson Market Police Court, where they
said that they were crossing the avenue when
Lamont came along on his wheel. They were
walking slowly, and the bicyclist, seeing that
they did not hurry when he rang his bell, called
them names. They resented this and fight fol-
lowed. The prisoners were held until Lamont
is able to appear against them.

MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH.
Chicago Change.

Chicago, July 27-The tide changed in wheat today. For two days the bears had were. disposed to rashly presume that they had hammered the market into such con dition that it was helpless and without abil- ity to revive. They discovered their mis- take, and to their sorrow this morning. Arguments against prices were useless and the market at one time today sold Sc over the final figures of yesterday. The short lines, which had increased on the previously descending market had been rather unc considerable difficulty, accompanied by a more or less anxiety. Some one posted a newspaper clipping, which, upon the au- thority of the London Times, reported an extraordinary deficiency in the English crop and stated that 1t would deyolve on Amerl- ca to make the shortage good. A private prospects poor, and New York wired that the shipments from that country last week aggregated but 100000 bushels. A dispatch from San Francisco stated that the yleld for California would not exceed 10o0oO tons. The above information attracted more at tention and exerted greater influence Tn from both coasts for the week, I265 OO0 bushels, and the enlarged winter wheat movement. Before the close, however. lc was taken from the best quotations of the day, mainly through realizing through those who had been benefited by the rise. An important factor in the early strength was days decline in American markets. Closing continental cables were lower. September wheat opened rom fU14 to fU9Sc, tuf dISeu to 726sc, receded to and closed at 71Ss471%c, 2121sc higher than yesterday Cash wheat was firm and 2Ql2l2c per bushel higher.
 Corn-The opening in corn was steady, but prices very early began to sag off, and that, in the presence of the iirmness in wheat, eventually, however, they became me responsive to a slight extent with the stronger tone of the finer grain, but the ral- ly which took place was at the best but a feeble one. When the buying inclination ap- pears in corn glowing prospects looms up to discourage it. September corn opened at about 431sc, sold between 43ls and 4212c, closing at 43Ac, 1sc higher than yesterday: Cash corn was weak and 12c per bushel lower, closing steady.
 Oats-Activity was not known in the oat market. The movement of prices was so slow as to scarcely receive notice. The motive came from the corn market. With the close September was 1sc higher than yesterday. Casl1oats were about steady.
 Provisions-The stiffness in products were oppressive. So little business was trans acted that the brokers were lamenting their being present at all Lower hogs had no effect on the tone. of prices, the strength of wheat serving as steadying factor: At Nthe close September pork was 2l2c lower than yesterday. and September lard and ribs each 21ac higher.
 The domestic markets were quiet and steady and Liverpool unchanged.
 The leading futures ranged as follows.

 prospects for the next crop are not for as large a crop as was figured on in the Tall of 1892. Then, again, referring to the fore going table, showing the crop and the con sumption for the past three years, you will observe that in 1S92-93 the consumption was 7600,0o0, and the crop was 7,020,0OOi ln 1S93-94 the consumption was 7,S00Oo0 bales, and the crop was 7.500.00O bales; in lS9l-95 the consumption was 8.300,000 bales, and the crop was 9,750000 bales. Now, within the past three years we have raised 150,0OO bales more of cotton than we have con sumed. We have been through the greatest financial panic during the same period that we have ever experienced in the United States. We have the fact staring us in the face that this years crop will not exceed 100000 bales under the most favorable con ditions; while with an early frost, continued drought, or the devastation of eaterpillars or boil worms the crop may be cut down 100000 or 100000 bales below that amount; hence our advice to the farmers to hold their cotton.
 Below we give you> some statistics from the agricultural bureau, showing the condl- tion of the crop in the months of June and July of the years 1892, 1893, 1894 and 1855: -

! THE COTTON CROP.
Crowe& Co. Estimate Falling Off in Produc- tion With Promise of Corresponding Adyaace in Price.

AsAJuly draws to a close, there being so many conflicting statements and rumors afoat as to the amount of the growing cot ton crop, we desire to give our opinion upon this subject. After carefully considering all information gathered by us, both from private correspondents and over our private wires I've are led to believe that the present growing crop will be the smallest raised by the south in many years and in the follow ing lihes will try to set forth our req sonssf0r looking for a small crop.
 Inthe first place our acreage is 15 per cent less than last year. The amount of fertilizer uSedis4 40 per cent less. The condition of the growing crop is fully 10 per cent below that threesweeks late. The seasons we have so far had this year for growing crops have beeIrdecidedly the poorest for years Texas Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkansas have been Afflicted with too much cool weather too much rain, too much grass, and too lit tie work. The stand is very poor, the weed Is small and the fruit on it is as sorry as can be to make a crop. The price of cotton today is below the cost of production. The estimated amount required for consumption for the world at the present rate of con- sumption will be about 900 bales more thanAwe will have on hand after this year S cropds marketed.
 Now, in view of the foregoing facts we wouId advise all farmers to hold back their crops as long as practicable. that they can sell the same at the highest possible figures If they do not rush into the market at the earliest moment possible we are con- receive from to 10 cents per pound for their cotton thus disposing of their crop at a decided profit.
 BeIpW we give some statistics that will be or use to cotton students. The table showsIhe highest and lowest prices in New Yorksfor spot middling upland cotton from January 1 to December 31, in each year named, since 1880:

Suns Cotton Review.

New York, July 27.-The Suns cotton re- view says: Cotton declined to points, then rallied slightly and closed quiet at a net decline of to 3 points, with sales of only 21,000 bales. Private letters to commits sion houses here report an improvement in the crop prospects Liverpool declined 1 to 1@ points for future delivery. Spot sales were 5000 bales at easier prices. The Chroni- cles report on the whole was favorable Rather too much moisture is reported in some few points in the gulf sections Needed Texas. The worlds visible supply shows a loss for the week of 15l 900 bales, including 116, 900 bales of American. New Orleans de- clined points. Spot cotton was quiet and unchanged at Savannah for middling up- lands, with sales of 419 bales for spinning Houston received ten bales. none of which were new, whereas a year ago today it's receipts 7S bales, including 13 new bales.
 Today's features: There was very little business and naturally the fluctuations were confined to very narrow limits The news on the whole was bearish and prices de- clned slightly The crop news in the main ported In few localities of western Texas and Graham in that state reported com paints of sharp shooting" while the Texas state report says the crop is two or three weeks late, though the week ended July 9 was generally favorable, and the plant was fruiting nicely. Heavy rains fell in the southwest but they had no effect. The continent bought little and there was some local covering, but dullness and de- pression in Liverpool and favorable crop reports dominated the market and caused a weaker tone, though there was slight recovery before the close.
