COLLISION At SEA.
Schooner Rendered Helpless by Stril<-
ing q British steamer.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 3O-Badly shat
tered and with loss of flying jibboom and
bowsprit and otherwise damaged, the three
masted schooner Kate B. Ogden, Captain
Wilbert, bound from Newport News to FAN
River, with a cargo of COAL was towed
into this port for repairs tonight by the
tug Ivanhoe. which picked her up at sea
in a helpless condition. The Ogden sailed
from Newport News on Aug. % and on
the night of Aug. "a, shortly after 10
o'clock, was in collision with the British
ship Morse King, Capt Sanders, which was
skirting the coast on her way from Ant
werp, via Boston, to Baltimore. The COLTS"
ion occurred off Hog island and as the
Ogden, whose identity was not known I'M
til tonight, disappeared it was believed by
those on board the British craft that she
had gone down with all on board. All Cap
tain Wilbert knew is that he was run into
by an unknown steamship and he was very
retcent concerning the accident when queS-
toned. 1t was narrow escape
Captain Sanders, of the Morse King, has
made a report of the accident, III which he
claims that all the blame is attached to
those in charge of the schooner, whose
course, he says, was changed contrary to
all navigation laws, which are emphatic in
their meaning that all sailing vessels must
hold their course and allow the steamer to
clear them

dence, was appointed receiver on June %.

ton fight and at the proper time he would
make a good defense. Mr. Straine had

GAME FINALLY CALLED.
Both Giants and Colts Kicked and
Three of the Latter We're Fined.

NEW YORK, Aug. 30.-Anson spoiled a
clean victory for his Colts this afternoon
by urging Emslie to call the game at the
end of the eighth. Emslie's refusal to COM
ply with Anson's request brought forth a
vile epithet from the big captain. For this
Arson was fined $25 and put out of the
game Then Everitt and Decker commenced
argument with Emslie and he assessed
them $40 each. With Arson out of the
game the Colts were one man short, and
Emsle pulled his watch and called batter
up. Ryan endeavOred to bat but was called
from the plate. One minute having expired
and no man coming up. the man who should
have faced the pitcher was declared out and
play resumed. When the trouble arose the
score was to in favor of the Colts. They
made three more runs in the ninth. When
the New Yorks came to bat in their half
of the ninth, Decker was on first base in
place Of Arson, and Friend covered left
field his form enveloped in a regulation
Chicago club dressing gown, while on his
head was a Chicago cap. The New York
ers raised vigorous objections to the playing
of Friend who, they claimed, was not in
uniform. Two men went out in succession
and Joyce and Gleason began to protest
again. McCreery was instructed not to go
to bat, and Emslie called the game, the
score reverting to the eighth inning Sulli-
van started to pitch, but three home runs
and a two-base hit in two innings caused
ms retirement. Seymour relieved him and
pitched good ball up to the eighth inning.
Grlthth was in good form and fooled the
Giants badly, and to the errors behind him,
at least two of the New Yofk'S runs are
due. The feature of the game was the
batting of Everitt Attendance, $4,000.

PROSPERITY STRIKES THIS BRANCH
OF INDUSTRY.
Interview with j. w. KeOEh, of the
Deering Harvester Company.

What Mr.. J. w. Keogh, of the Deering
Harvester Company says when asked,
what change il any, has taken place In
your business during the year 1897?
To June LIST this year retail dealers in all
parts of the State were backward in placing
orders for goods. After that time to tha
present all dealers we sell have sent US
good orders There is a decided change for
the better in the trade. our trade on all
lines we sell, with the exception of Irvine,
is very good and better than in 1896. The
Irvine trade was not as good In 1897 as in
1896. In the fall Of 1896 an average acreage
of wheat was sown and the usual amount
of Irvine bought by retail dealers through
out the State, all dealers figuring on an
average acreage of wheat for 1897 How
ever, the yield of wheat for 1897 throughout
the State was cut short more or less in
different sections by winter freezing, and
also the very high waters along all streams
in the early spring. When spring set In the
farmers examined their growing wheat,
and about 81 per cent. decided IL would not
pay TO let the wheat stand and each one or
these farmers plowed up about a. per cent
of the wheat they sowed in the fall or 1896.
This greatly reduced the NUMBER OF acres
OF wheat for 1887. as compared with tAe
usual average in Indiana
Wherever winter freezing and high waters
destroyed the growing wheat II greatly af~
fected the Irvine trade, and a very large
number of retail dealers throughout the
State are carrying over into 1878 an un-
usually large amount Of unSold twine which
they had bought for 1897. rms o1tAE true,
il will greatly affect the Irvine trade Ior
1885 and ! ngurs the amount 81 twtne th4L
retail dealers will buy for the year IDS, aS
compared with the average years tn ln-
diana, viii be from one-third 70 one-fouryh
less If the acreage of wheat soWn this
fan is larger than usual the retail dealers
will buy very carefully and make acre the
amount ordered will not be greater than
the amount they will sell next year.
You carry a large amount of famers' pa
per. How are you finding these collections
AS compared with 1895 and 1885, our 1891
collections are e great deal better. All re-
ports from our men travelling In the state
are To the effect that the retail dealers
collections are good. farmers are paying on
old accounts which have been standing for
some time, and our note collections are
decidedly better everywhere,

DECLARED A DRAW.
Twenty-R Ound Fight Between Ever
hardt and Mcfarland.

NEW ORLEANS Aug. 30.-Jack Ever
hardt and Kid Mcfarland fought at catch
weights before the ST. Bernard Athletic
Club tonight. The arena was not properly
constructed to hold the immense crowd
which attended nor was the protection am
pie, for the mob got beyond control and
there was danger of collapse. Twenty
rounds were fought. Mcfarland displayed
the most science, drew blood early, kept
pegging away with his left, Furnishing Ever
hardt and escaping any great damage to
himself but he could not give EVerhardt
enough punishment to put hum out. At the
end of the twentieth round the fight was
declared no contest.
In the nineteenth round Everhardt
landed clean left on the jaw and knocked
Mcfarland down. But he was up like a
fash and fought like a demon. AT the end
of the twentieth round Referee Duffy de-
clared the fight a draw, saying he could
not conscientIously give the hight to either
man. Nevertheless Mcfarland had the
best of the fight throughout. The purse was
so per cent of the gross receipts divided,
three-fourths to the winner. In view of the
decision the money will be equally divided.
The attendance was fully ten thousand.
