Another Claim for Damages Against
Spain.
Alexander Porter Morse appeared at the
State Department, and as counsel for Gustav
Richlieu preferred claim for go, 900 against
the Spanish Government for illegal arrest
and Imprisonment ltichlieu and Bolton,
claiming TO lie American sailors, were picked
up of the Cuban port OF Guantanamo several
months ago by a Spanish patrol. They were
In u small boat, and claimed that they had
come all the way over from Haiti hunting for
turtles. They were arrested on suspicion OF
being concerned In q fllibusterlng movement,
but the American consular agent at Guam
tanamo secured their release after few days
detention.
They then made their way to Santiago,
whore they were again arrested on a charge
OF coming away from Gnantanmo without
passports. They were thrown into jail at
Santiago, and. In spite Of the efforts Of Con-
sui Hyatt, they were kept imprisoned for
several weeks, meanwhile suffering from
fever. The department probably will call
upon our consular officers for "a full state
ment OF the facts before presenting the claim.

CROPS OF THE WORLD.
The Wheat Yield in America and India
Below an Average.

The Wheat Yield in America and India
Below an Average.
Consul General Max Judd, of Vienna, has
forwarded TO the Department OF State re-
port on the grain crop Of the world for 1895,
compiled from the report OF the annual inter
national grain fair. The abstract furnished
by Mr.. Judd shows that the wheat, rye, bar
ley and ont crops OF Europe are somewhat
below the average, while corn 10 exceedingly
promising, and II Is expected that the yield
will be one-half again as large this year ,.s 1t
has been on an average for tev years. Canada
shows an increase OF about G, ,000. 900 In wheat.
while India shows loss OF about donble that
quantity. both as compared with 1894. Most
OF ihe Russian provinces indicate an increase
In wheat and rye. Tho Austria Hungary
wheat Is poor In quality. and less In quantity
than usual A lighter wheat crop is also in
dicated In the United States. The French
wheat crop estimated at SO per cent; rye at
los, and oats at 95 per cen. OF the average.
The wheat crop OF Great Britain and Ireland
Is put down as poor, and is estimated at from
40 to 50 per cent OF the average. The English
barley crop will be better than the wheat
crop, but the quality will be poor Egypt
will export considerable wheat.
IL is anticipated that the loss on wheat In
lndia and the United States will be compen-
sated for by the gain In Canada and Russia
snd that, taking this crop throughout the
world, the result for the year will DO about
equal 10 the average season.

CHOLERA VICTIMS
The Plague in Honolulu Now Under
Control.

The Plague in Honolulu Now Under
Control.
The first authentic advices from Honolulu
received for two weeks was brought by the
barkentne Wilder. Tho Wilder sailed on
September IL.
Seyenty-two people have been attacked
with choiara since the plague broke out. OF
that number 81 have died, but two white peo-
pie were among tho victims. During the last
iorty-eight hours but one new case had de-
veloped. ii 10 believed that the disease is
now under check, aud II Is only "a matter Of
few weeks when It will DO totally eradicated.
The citizens sanitary movement already
shows good results. A house to house inspec-
tion is made twice IA day, and all suspicious
cases are sent TO the hospital. The natives
will not report cases OF sickness; they appear
to be afraid OF white doctors, VINO they claim
will kill them.
AS II result OF almost suspended business
many Hawaiians are out of work, aud there
appears TO be real distress among them. A
relief station has been opened up, at which
all natives may secure supplies OF food and
Iaiment.
Tho sale OF fish from the harbor has been
prohibited. A quarantine by other islands
Is still maintained against Honolulu. Pro-
visions are growing short outside Of the city,
and 1t is believed that a steamer will be chart
cred at San Francisco, TO load for Hio on
Hawaii. or Kahuluoa on Maui.

career In the Army OF the Potomac, aud took
part in every engagement, except one. up 70
Lees surrender at ,AppopaitoS. GENERAL
Miles distinguished himself In particular at
Spottsylvania- Attacking the bloody angle
~ right, he broke the fnemy's line,
roGeo him and captured Lieutenant Gen
eral Bushrod johnson and his division. At
Five Forks Miles saved the day by coming TO
the rescue Of Sheridans cavalry and Warren's
Fifth corps.
General Miles's promotion was marked by
somewhat exceptional rapidity, only about a
year elapsing before he was made lieutenant
colonel oi the SiNty-ilrst New York infantry,
and month later. September 20, 1863. he
was maze colonel Of the same regiment In
1864 he attained the rank OF brigadier-gen-
eral OF volunteers aud early in the following
year obtained his commission rs majoT-gen-
eral Of volunteers In 1866 he was mustered
out Of the volunteer service, and placed In
command Of the Fourth United States in
fantry, In which he remained until 1869,
wnen be was transferred 10 the Fifth in
iantry.
Altogether the new commander had a
varied military career. Since the war he has
been best known ~ an Indian Fighter. l.e
d!d gne work at the head OF the Indian terri
tory expedition in 1873. Ia 1874 he drove
Sitting Bull over the Canadian line, captured
number OF noted warriors, and also sue
ceedel IN making prisoners Of Chief Joseph
and tho Ne2 Perccs. In 1878 he defeated and
captured u band OF Bannocks in Yellowstone
park Not long after this, he succeeded In
bringing in sitting Bull, aud thus was more u
factor than any other man in the settlement
ot Montana and North and South Dakota. In
1856 he captured Geronomo and his baud OF
apaches ia Arizona.
In appearance General Miles is one Of the
most stalwart and soldery men in tho ser
vice. lie is over six feet tall and does not

Says the Indiana Farmer: Men OF


every vocation go -nn-'rad ~ nab.
- -'..tlC.A ~ interuependent people
like ours, TO mould such a social fabric
as ours, and build up such incompara.
BILE free institutions as we have. Agri-
culture, however, is the foundation of
oil these. 1t is the solid foundation
OF them all, We may say. In times of
depression the world can easily get on
with half the things usually consumed,
which are produced by manufacture
ers, miners, and others, but not on
FL rOtions Of fQQd. One aIlt Of
clothes under hard.timo conditions
will 60 as far as two and three used in
prosperous times. Doctors and law.
yers incomes fall Off one-half in times
OF depression, and the merchants in
all branches suffer in very large num-
bers' 1t is painfully interesting to
study the statistics of failure during
the past two years. Business men of
every class have gone to the wall in
very large numbers, including bankers
and merchants and manufacturers. In
cldent to this have occurred the suf.
fering of millions who have depended
upon their daily wage in factory and
mercantile pursuits. The farmer has
come in for his share of the hardships
incident to poor markets and low
prices. But his bank-the soil Of his
farm-has yielded him food, of which
hundreds of thousands of others have
been deprived unless helped to it by
others, for their daily wage failed
them. The farm may partly suspend
payment in short crop, or in low prices
of horses, sheep, wool, and cattle. But
1t Is only part suspension. The prime
article of food is always produced,
although profits fall of. With other
classes even food fails, because there
is complete suspension of business
and wages, and nothing to buy with.
With the farm there is never utter
failure of crops, as there is utter
failure of all resources and wages of
other classes. There is always either
a fair wheat or fruit or other kind of
crop, or fair conditions and prices for
either horses, or cattle, or hogs, or
sheep, or wool, or poultry. The eggs
Of the farmer are not all in one basket,
as with the merchant or the worker.
When business reverses come, as in
the panic OF the past two years, every
phase of resource goes TO pieces in
business and labor pursuits. And SO
the statistics show thousands of failures
in business to very few in farm circles.
In tho past two years this failure and
hardship have driven thousands, with
rapidly vanishing resources, to the
pursuits OF farming.
