GRAYLING IN,

Government should be wholly relieved
from the responsibility of providing q
credit currency for the people. The no.
tion that the mere possession Of sur
plus In the treasury would prevent with
drawals Of gold, and thus render tho issue
of bonds for the protection Of the reserve
unnecessary, is founded, in his Judgment,
upon an entire misconception Of the
causes that have produced the withdraw

There is, he thinks, but one safe and

of the Treasury to issue from time to

such terms as may be most advantageous
to the Government, or to sell them abroad

advisable TO do so, and to use the gold
thus obtained in redeeming the outstand-

 DES MONIES, Ia., July 6.-Mayor Hills last evening visited one of the most notorious saloon-drug stores in the city and finding men there drink ing beer had the place pulled. For a long time he has been trying to get these places closed, and officers re- ported it impossible. Yesterday he met Edito- Clarkson, of the Register, on the street. Clarkson offered to show him one of the places and they went together to A. NJ. Bilby's store. They walked behind the prescription case and the mayor went up to man who was drinking beer, took the bottle and glass away from him, smelled them and went out again. The two went to the Register office and the mayor ordered the police to at once pull the place. It was done be- fore anybody in the room knew who the recent callers were. Later in the day the mayor ordered other places pulled and the end is likely to be the closing of all places of this kind.

 NEW YORK, July 6.-R. C..

They indicate distinctly better crop prospects than the official or commercial accounts, marked increase in retail distribution Of products, an active demand for goods and a general enlargement of the working force, with some advance in the wages of more than 800, 000 hands. At the same time they show the rapid advance in prices has some- what checked the buying of few classes of products. In some parts of the country the outlook for fall trade is considered bright.
 There is a growing recorder demand for heavyweight woolens, and many new kinds of lightweights have been opened with notable irregularities in prices, some lower and others higher than last year. But the manufacture iS UeUter sustained thus Tar Jnan eX- pected, and the feeling is very hopeful, especially as labor troubles have sub stantially ended. Prices of cotton goods also continue to advance, and the mills are generally well em- ployed. Speculation has depressed wheat cents in spite of estimates that the yield has been materially reduced since June | Every year the crop re- ports are having less influence, and the time is ripe for the radical change in government estimates which the de- partment proposes The year closes with more than 2, 600, 900 bales of Amer ican cotton available here and abroad, and with at least 65.000, ,O00 bushels surplus wheat, although some make the quantity 3O,00o, 600 bushels larger. The crop of oats is certain to be large and the prospects for corn have great ly improved within the last few weeks. There were 6,65O commercial failures in the first half of 1895, against 7,O39 in the first half of 1894, and 6,4Ol for the first half of 1893. These commercial failures involved liabilities of SS3 s30,- 94i this year, against $l01, 730, 305 last year, and SlG8, s6f,4i0 in 1893.

The occa- sion was German Catholic picnic and an interruption by anti Catholics loaded with bad whisky, was the cause of the trouble.

Dr. Lomax is a surgeon, and with two assistants was kept busy from o'clock in the after noon until the next day dressing the wounds of the injured. He related some awful incidents.
 That town is but small hamlet of a half dozen houses, and a Catholic church is in very isolated portion Of the county. The dangerously wounded are all in the church and almost twenty are expected to die, while others are in q critical condition. The local squires have appointed numerous deputies to keep the peace.
