Washington, Aug. 31.-Th+ Post will
tomorrow print lengthy Interview with
Gov. Charles It. O'Ferral, of Virginia,
who last fall declined to support the
nominees and platform of the Chicago
convention and who is the recognized
head of ths gold democrats in, Virginia.
Gov. o'Ferral talks with plainness as
to his present position and his future
action. He anrounces his determfna- 5
tion not to support, under present condi-
tions, the democratic state tickst recently
nominated at Roanoke and gives his rea-
sons for reaching this decision.
He criticses in emphatic language the
tone of the lsaders at that convention,
indorsng the Chicago platform, and also
pays his respects to the free silver DEM
ocrats who have made him target of
abuse, claiming that they have taken
advantage of his position, knowing that
he could not answer them, and charging
them with attempting to seek notoriety
through hurling epithets at him.
He rei=rates his charge that Bryan
had made every arrangement to enter the
state in 1893 and make speeches in be-
half of the populst who was running
for governor against him and gives adj
ditional evidence to substantiate his as
sertion. He speaks of Senator Daniel
as having supported in the senate a res
olution indorsing Cleveiands s action as re-
CARDS the Chicago strike and yet voted in
the committee ON resolutions In Chicago
denouncing Cleveland for the very act
which the ssnator had previously COM
mended.

that she was on a long Journey, and

ALABAMA'S CROPS.
A Splendid Showing For All the Farm and
Orchard Products.

Special to The Age-Herald.
Montgomery, Ala, Aug. 31.--Commis-
sioner of Agriculture Culver gav= out
tonight some official facts as to this
years crops In Alabama. He says the
cotton crop this year as compared with
last is now S5 per cent. with the average
failing daily on account of rust, too much
rain and boil worms.
Cotton is opening rapidly and being
gathered promptly but littl- is being
marketed.
The best crop of wheat known for years
has just been harvested.
Spring oats were a failure but the fall
sowing is very promising. There is good
promise for thu tobacco crop and the
hay crop is excellent. the average this
year being a fourth larger than ever
before and the yield being sufficient to
supply all local demands.
The Irish potato crop is the best in
years and the corn crop is 1O2 per cent.
with a decrease in acreage of per cent.
Sweet potatoes are about an av4rage
The sugarcane and sorghum crops are
10 per cent. above last year. Labor is
reported plentiful and contented. Stock
is doing exceptionally well this year.
The fruit crop has been good except
ing as to pears which are generally re-
ported as suffering from blight

DUE TO CROPS.
New york's Leading Banks Shipping Millions
to Move the Farm Products.
Ia Fl. G.

New York, Aug. 31.--A canvass of the
leading banks in this city shows that
large sums of mon=y are being shipped
daily to help move the crops. One of
the deposit institutions here has sent
100000 since the middle of last week and
orders ars still coming in. The sub
treasury at this city has not had as
many currency orders as was usual but
this is ascribed to the lateness of the
crops in the southwest.
Altogether it is estimated that fully
s5,OOO,OOO of crop money has bsen shipped
from this city the past fortnight. The
southern creditors are in better shape
just now than they have been in several
years and th+ general outlook in that
section and the southwest as viewed
from here is unusually bright

lhcLAURlN WONH
The Senatorial Contest Resulted in Victory
fer the Present Representative.

Columbia. S. C.,sAug. S1.-A light vote
was polled in the senatorial primary in
South Carolina today, probably not ex-
ceeding 10000. Last year in the contest
between Judge Earle and Gov. Evans,
$4,000 votes wer+ polled.
Senator McLaurin, ex-Gov. Evans and
ex-senator Irby were the candidates to-
day. They had canyassed the state and
the public has been made thoroughly
conv. rsant with their views The lat
est returns covering all accessible points
give McLaurin 1882; Evans $3.50; Irby,
$3.50, a majority for McLaurin of 10,252.
This may not be materially increased,
but it is too great to be possibly absorbed
by any returns from the back districts
yet to come.

WEAVING THE FATAL WEB
Witnesses Give Strong Testimony
Against Luetgert.
HIS DOMESTIC TROUBLES
Told to Neighbor Are Repeated From the
Stand-Night Watchman Biak De-
tails His Movements.

Chicago, Aug. 31.-Three witnesses
were placed on the stand by the
day. Probably the most important wit
ness of the three was Frank Bialk, nigh
watchman at the Luetgert sausage fac
tory. Bialk, who is a German, AZ years
of age, was a trusted employe of the
defendant, for whom he worked several
years. His testimony, which he gave in
German, bore directly on the movement
of the defendant during the night of May
l. He also reported how two bottles,
which he called caustic potash, We're
stored on one of the upper floors of the
factory and were shortly before May l
taken to the basement, where the bottles
were emptied ito the vat and dissolved
by steam.
The other witnesses were Charles l..

ard Mrs. Agatha Tosch, the wife of a.
saloonkeeper, Mrs. Tosch was frequent
ly in charge of her husbands saloon, and
had several conversations with Luetgert
regarding the disappearance of his wife.
She had been regarded as one of the
states strongest witnesses. being one of
the few who saw smoke issuing from
the factory the night Mrs. Luetgert dis
appeared She swore that Luetgert had
urged her to say nothing about the
smoke, as it might get him in trouble.
The witness detailed that Luetgert
had related his domestic unhappiness,
and had told her ot the contempt with
which he regarded his wife. He had,

he could crush her. Witness also told
that I.uetgert, on May 1, and on another
occasion, had told her that he fe3t like
killing himself, and would do so If it
were not for leaving his little children.
Before taking of testimony began to-
day attorneys for the defense asked the
court to compel the state to set forth by
what means. according to the theory of
the prosecution, the life of Mrs. Luetgert
was taken before her body was placed
in the vat. The indictment contained
twelve counts, but did not state the man.

decided that the state was not bound to
specify the means of death.

Unofficial advices reached the postof-
flee department that the British govern
ment is contemplating another postal
route into the Kioudyke region from the
coast to be almost wholly within the Brit
ish territory The entrance from the
coast Is to be effected, according to the
new plan by means Of the Stinilze river,
which has it's mouth on THE United States
side of the line, but passage through
which is free to all. This scheme as 1t
is beirg projected is for the British mail

Wrangle, CROSS overland about $50 miles

Sllalenberger and other officials were
busy today going over the details of the
new mail route from Dyea to Dawson
City, made by ag reement between this
country and Canada, and perfecting ar
rangements for the exchange scheme on
the part of the United States.
Reports have reached here that per-
sons acquainted with the Alaskan gold
situation generally believe that she Cop
per river valley will be the scene of great
activity very soon. This news comes
in personal way from postal authorities
who have had an opportunity to inquire
into the matter. 1t is based not only on
the reported productiveness of the val
ley, but largely on the prcscriptive mas
ures the Canadian government is about
to establish, taking every alternate claim
and demanding 20 per cent. of tha profits.
