say. The rains have been OF the
greatest benefit to spring sown wheat
and oats. The spring grain was sown
from Ap!il lst to May 18th, and up to
within the past fifteen days little or
no rain fell on it; the result was, that
there was little growth and very poor
prospects This all now has been
chsnged. The spring grain will make
a good crop, as good as was ever OBJ
tained.
The rain delayed laying and some
hay was injured by the rain. the
amount, however, was small. Glover
and alfalfa that were cut early, have
made good growth for the second crop.
Late hay has been greatly benefited
Dy the rains. The hay crop will not
be be an average one. but it will be
vastly better than was expected two
weeks ago. Haying continues. The
weather has been most favorable to
hops, and also for the development of
the hop louise. Potatoes are now
making big crop. Early potatoes
are over their bloom, and late potatoes
are growing rapidly. Corn shows
most marked improvement since the
rains fell. Garden produce of all kinds
is making phenomenal growth.
The fruit prospects are ImoroYed.
Apricots and peaches are showing
color and Will soon be ripe. Some
varieties of prunes continue to drop,
but the general prune crop will be
good. Apples and pears will be

and berries are ripening, with heavy
crops. Cherries continue to be plenti.

varieties, but so far little injury has
been done.
The showers were general and were
of the greatest possible benefit. The
farmers have renewed hopes and the
most fattering prospects for enor-
nous crops. In Jackson and jose
phine counties the rain was heavier
than in Multnomah county, and cor
responding benefits result.

at an Indiana Health Resort.

TOPEKA, Kan, July S.-Col. James
r. Hallowell, formerly of Kansas, is
diving of diabetes at health resort in
Indiana, where he recently went ac'
companied by Mrs. Hallowell.
Mr. Hnlowel moved to Chicago from Wichi-
ia nearly two years ago He succeeded to Il
lucrative law practice, and had Just begun to
achieve s0Ge local fame whel he was over
taken by the malady which now has brought
him to death door.
Col Hallowell beginning in Kansas was at
Columbus. in Cherokee comfy, In 1870 he
represented that county in the state senate
and afteward succeeded George X Peck as
United States district attorney. This position
he held until he was succeeded by W. c. Perry,

where he at once took high rank at the bar
In 1890 he became the republican nominee for
congress in the Seventh district He was
known as Prince Hail." a title given him dur
ing The war on account Of his princely bearing
as an officer and superb act Of bravery in
planting the flag OF the union upon the enemys
defenses
In the war Col Hallowell sustained wounds
from which he never recovered. pension
was granted to him several times while he
lived in Kansas but he uniformly declined to
accept it. He adhered strictly to that opinion
until misfortune compelled him to change his
views. Only yesterday the announcement was
made from Washington that Mr. Halowell had
been awarded pension Of $50 per month with
back pay of about 81 900 which will be a boon

KANSAS CITY'S POPULATION.
Big Increase In Numerical and Commercial
Strength the Past Year.

Strength the PaBt rear
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July l2.-The
work of compiling the Kansas City'di-
rectory for 1897 has been completed
and the new volume will be out in a
few days. There are 7S,49s names in
the directory this year, of which 5,Sl4
are churches, schools, firms, hotels,
corporations, removals, ETC., leaving
an actual bona fde list of 67,6s4 names,
which makes the population Of Kansas
City, Mo-, 1859, 9lO, an increase OF l2,s4S
over 1896, and 22,07S over 1895. There
are 1881 names in the Kansas City,
Kan, division of the directory and the
population of that city is found to be
43, AIS. The combined population of
the two Kansas Citys is 2ls,6S5.
Bank clearings last year almost
doubled those of Cincinnati, whose
population is 100000 more than that of
Kansas City; they were greater than
the bank clearings of Buffalo, Mime
apolis, Detroit or Milwaukee and three
times as great as those of Omaha. The
live stock receipts and packing-houses
have broken records during the year,
the total number of cattle, hogs and
sheep slaughtered being in excess OF
any other city of the country with the
exception Of Chicago, and more than
double the slaughter at either st.
Louis or Omaha.

Another Pension Decision,

WASHINGTON, July IA decision
of some novelty and Importance was
rendered by Assistant Secretary Davis
recently in an application for pen
sion made by Mrs. Theodore Shreve,
formerly Of Missouri, who asked pen
sion for an illegitimate child. The
evidence showed that the soldier,
Shreve, was not legally married to the
claimant, although ceremony was
performed. He had been previously
married. Under the Missouri laws,
however, the secretary finds that
where a woman marries under such
circumstances the offspring is legiti-
matized and accordingly he decides
that pension, as the child of the SOL
der, can. be allowed.

CABINET MEETING.



on the Currency to Congress.
WASHINGTON. July S.-President Nc.
Kinley last night called special meet
ing of the cabinet for yesterday. The
regular meeting would not have oc.
Cured until Friday, and there was
some matters it was desired to give
early consideration. 1t is understood
that one matter under consideration
was the sending of message to con-
gress on the currency question and an
other the tariff bill and the advisable
ity of recommending any changes in it
before it passes the conference stage.
After discussion lasting over an
hour the cabinet to-day decided
that the president should send
to congress message recommend
ing legislation providing for a
commission to adjust the currency
questions of the country. 1t was re.
solved that this message should be
sent to congress tomorrow, providing
that the tariff bill is by that time
passed by the senate. 1t is the expec-
tation of the president that the sub.
iect will receive the attention of con-
gress during the present extra session.
The message itself is written and is
short Its principal feature is quota
ton from the presidents inaugural ad'
dress on the financial subject. The
tariff bill was not considered at the
meeting to-day except in its bearing
on the currency commission PROPOSE

FATAL FAMILY QUARREL.

ST. LOUIS, July S.-Herbert Corn
wall was shot and killed by his
brother, DR.. Richard Cornwall, be-
tween eight and nine o'clock this
morning at the tonic beer depot OF
their father, DR.. John c. Cornwall,
1909 North Broadway. 1t appears that
Herbert Cornwall was very dissolute
young man and his father chided him
this morning for persisting in his bad
habits. This enraged Herbert and he
assaulted his father, who is old and
feeble. Dr. Richard Cornwall inter-
fered in behalf Of his father and a
fight ensued between him and Her.
bert, in which the latter was shot five
times and had his head and face badly
mashed by being beaten with heavy
stone jug. He died in very few mo-
ments. DR.. Cornwall surrendered to
the police and was locked up. lie is a

Gang Near Arkansas City, Kan.
ARKANSAS Cry, Kan, July 1O.-On
the farm of Christian Herroder, four
miles east Of here, terrible fight oc-
Cured in which three men were more
or less seriously injured, one perhaps
fatally. While thrashing wheat Chris
Herroder, a grandson Of Christian Her
roder, became angry at the manner in
which young man by the name of
Baker was showing the wheat at him
to be fed into the machine. He re-
monstrated to the latter, who there
upon made movement as If to throw
young Herroder ipto the thrasher.
Herroder quickly jumped to the
ground, and, picking up heavy stick,
brought it down upon young Bakers
head stunning him. At this, Bakers
father took a hand, and, grabbing
pitchfork, threw it at young Herroder.
One tine passed through the heshy
part of Herroder's cheek, and another
entered his left chest, passing between
the ribs, and penetrated deep into the
left lung Young Herroder coolly
pulled the fork from his own body and
made savage charge upon his oppo-
nents, severely wounding each. He
soon grew faint and was carried to the
house, while Baker and his son got
into their wagon and made good their
escape. They are still at large The
Herroders are very prominent and
well-to-do farmers. Young Herroder
is % years old, and was recently mar.

the negro who criminally assaulted
Annie Foerbing near Union. Mo-, one
week ago, was taken from the Jail at
Union at 1880 a. m. Saturday and hanged

Forty or 80 mounted men rode into

four abreast until they were within
one block Of the Jail, where they di-
vided into two squads. One squad
rode north and the other rode south,
completely surrounding the houses OF
the sheriff and jailer At each house
they placed strong guard. The bal
ance rode quickly to the Jail and at
tackled the iron doors with sledge ham
mers and cold chisels. The noise
awakened many Of the villagers and
they hurried to the Jail with the avowed
purpose of preventing lynching.
