A PARK OUT OF A GRAVEYARD.
Trans formation Scene Taking place
on West side of New York City.

Workmen in the employ of the city
of New York have begun to transform
the famous old ST. Johns burylng
ground ;nto a park. First they dug
large pit and into it they threw more
thar 900 ancient tombs stones. On some
of these stones We're cut names that
were once well known in New York
Five thousand bodies were buried in the
cemetery, that is now il crowded
part of the West side and IS needed for
a pleasure ground for the people of the
district. Trinity corporation fought
hard for the old burying ground, but
Was defeated and obliged to accept
$4,000 for the land. Some of the
bodies were disinterred and removed,
but the others will be undisturbed, the
park grounds being laid out above
them. One New Yorker whose kin
dreds' graves were to be covered by a
walk is said to have obtained a modi-
fication OF tire plans, by which flower
bed will be above the bodies. Until
now the century old tombstones, the
Inscriptions on whose faces had been
almost eifaced by the hand of time,
have been objects Of wonder and inter-
est to strangers, telling of a time when
New York was little community at
| the southern end of Manhattan island.

THE RYE CROP.
1t IL n disappointment ms Indicated
by The Einnl Returns.

A disappointing rye crop is indicated
by final returns to the American Agri-
culturist. Instead of some 2s,0OO,ooO
bushels expected from earlier indaca-
lions, the crop of the United States now
figures out about 25,0oo,0oo bushels
1000 900 more than last year and 2,ooo.-
900 less than in 1895 and 1894. The in
crease is mainly in Pennsylvania the
western crop being quite disappointing.
Latest European crop advices are con-
fir1natory of serious shortages in rye,
especially in Russia. Germany's rye
crop seems to be somewhat larger than
earlier reports indicated, but reduced
estimates for France and other coun-
tries barely offset this. Stocks OF OLD
rye at home and abroad are lower than
for years, and export demand for amer
lean rye continues very active. ES'
cept during the fall of 1895 and 1896, rye
had not been so low as at present
since before 1890.

FIERCE FIRE AND HUMAN

after / o'clock.
It was unfortunate in two re-
spects-in the loss OF property )
consumed and in the tragic result
for one human life was the sac
rifice of the fiery enemy.
1t was an exceedingly fierce tire;
a raging, angry, dangerous con-
fiagration. The buildings de-
stroyed were the hotel OF Mr.. An
drew E. Maloney, on the corner OF
Louisiana and Lake streets, scarce
ly completed, and those OF Mrs.
M. L. Bourquin, hard by to the
northward, and fronting Louisiana
street. These had not yet been
finished.
The buildings were all OF wood
and their recent painting made
them all the more inflammable and
the flames took hold and devoured
them as would a hungry tiger a
Juicy victim III its grasp.
1t is said that an alarm was
sounded from two boxes, IA and
q. the latter being the correct one.
This is said to have caused some
delay in reaching the scene, as
Caddo No. 2 dashed down to IA
instead Of straight out the street to
the scene. This may be hear-say;
we don't know.
Our firemen are skillful, dexter
Gus workers, and they made an
onslaught with their usual vim,
but they were at a terrible disad-
vantage from the beginning.
There was no plug nearer than
a block away and only one at that.
This was utilized, and by this
time the heat was SO intense that
the Union Depot, nearly a hum
dred feet away, was scorched, the
window frames becoming warped
and contorted. Great pillows OF
flame could be seen stretching out
from the terrible furnace and
sweeping the streets.
The fireman now began IHelI
fight, but it was useless. The fire
was too hot, the distance from the
plug too great, and some say the
water pressure was not sufficient
So it could be seen the buildings
were doomed. Thirty barrels OF
whiskey exploding at once in the
Maloney Hotel added to the con-
fusion and intensity of the scene
But the worst is not yet. SO fal
only the serio-comedy has beer

to go there by important outside inter-

certain outside interests that it may
be that some concerted action may be
taken to postpone the sale of the Union
Pacific property until all the facts are
thoroughly understood"
There is nothing uncertain about my
attitude in this Union Pacific affair"
Mr.. Sage said. 81 think it is due to the
people of this country that the govern
ment should get fair return for What
it gave the Union Pacific, and if it shall
appear later that something different is
right, congress should see that 1t is
done Unless the president is perfectly
clear in his own mind that his legal
advisers are right in their conclusions,
the question would bear postponing IN
til congress meets and can discuss it.
Then the situation will bring out what
is right and what is wrong. In the
meantime do not care to criticize any
other plan. When a conclusion has been
reached as to what is right and what
is wrong. there are capitalists enough

General Samuel Thomas, who was
mentioned as a member of the Sage
syndicate, had this to say:

that an opposition syndicate has been
formed for the purchase of the Union

OUTRAGE At FORT SHERIDAN
TRIAL OF LOWERING, INJURED
SOLDIERS CAPTAIN.
Testimony offered in Proof Of the
Brutal Treatment of Hammond
Admissions Of Accused Officer.

Chicago. Oct. 22-Priyate Charles
Hammond. U. s. A, gaunt and thin,
and showing plainly the effects of his
Ia days confinement on a bread and
water diet in the guard house at Fort
Sheridan, appeared before a court Of
his superior officers today and told
them of the circumstances of his dis
obedience of the orders of Captain
Lowering and of the subsequent drastic
measures taken by that official to en-
force his commands. But few specta-
tors were present to witness the open
ing of the court as the officers were
engaged in the regular drill on the
parade ground.
Two small holes in the back of Ham
nlond's jacket were visible reminders
of the alleged dragging on the morn
ing of Oct. 8. Under oath he testified
as follows:
ION Friday I refused to go to work
and was ordered from the guard room
to my CELL AT $3.50 I was told that I
would have to appear before a sum
mary court. l told the officer of the
guard that if he wanted me ne must
carry me there. Captain Lowering
came there with two members of the
guard. The order was given to the
sentries to step in and drag me out
90 IIldJ my DdCh MOulu SlT1he Oh me
door sill. The sentries took hold of
me and threw me to the floor and as
I was dragged out Sergeant Barnard
tried to hold me down onto the sill so
that my back would be scraDed. I
was dragged to the guard room out
side and as I went through the door,
Captain Lowering put his heel over
my head and threatened to stab me in
the face. Then l was allowed to walk
back to my cell. Later, Captain Low
ering returned to my cell with four
sentries and gave the order so IN and
jerk that man out The door was I'M
locked and two sentries stepped in
and threw me. Captain Lowering
kicked me in the side while I was
down, four times with his foot. and as
L went over the sill again he gave me
a violent kick in the shoulder
Captain Lowering was then called.
| He made no attempt to deny any of
the accusing witness statements He
admitted that by his orders Hammond
had been dragged from the guard
house and he also admitted that he
! had struck the soldier and pricked him
with his sword. None of this treat
ment, Captain Lowering said, had in
jured Hammond in the least, as was
proven by the surgeons report, and
the methods used were in mis- opinion
necessary for discipline.
The court then adjourned Until to-
morrow.

Fifteen Million Dollars Due 1t On

January 1.
San Francisco, Oct. 22-On the first
of the coming January over S15.000.000
of the first mortgage bonds of the Cen
trail Pacific railroad will fall due. and
an effort is now being made by the
company to induce the holders of the
securities to accept an extension on the
bonds for a period of three years. The
banking house of Speyer & Co., of 80
Broad street, New York, has been en-
gagged to handle the entire matter for
the company, and holders of the bonds
are asked to present their holdings for
extension at their Office in the east.
H. r. Huntington, in speaking of the
matter. said that in all probability the
entire issue, or the greater part OF it.
would be extended Those among the
bondholders who insist upon having
their money when it falls due. however,
can have it by deposittng their bonds

is money enough in the company's sink
ing fund for the redemption of first
mortgage bonds to cancel ali bonds that
are offered for redemption. The sink
ing fund now approximate 100000
