A ConsuI's Indiscreti0n.

Washington, Aug. 29.-Consul Edward
Bedloe, who has been stationed at Can
ton, China, during the administration Of
President Mckinley, has been suspended
by the state department and granted
permission to return to the United
States. His suspension was not due to
charges of giving aid to the Filipinos,
but arose, in part, out of the certificate
Of American ownership, said to have
been granted by him to the steamer
Abbey. The Abbey was seized by the
gunboat McCulloch at Batangas, where
she had landed cargo of arms and am
munition. The authorities feel that DR..
Bedloe is innocent of any Intentional
wrong.

CROPS GREATLY INJURED.
Severlty.of The Drought Felt In the, Greater
Portion OF New England.

Following Is a statement of the wealth
er and crop conditions Of New England,
compiled from the reports Of correspond
ents throughout the section, for the
week ending Aug. %:
General showers fell during the early
part of the week in coast sections of the
district, and were also fairly well dis
tr1buted over the interior section Of
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Con-
necticut. The amounts, in numerous in
stances, were copious, thoroughly wet
ting the surface of the ground, filling
streams and temporarily breaking the
drought. Scattered showers also oc-
CURED in parts of Vermont. For the
remaining parts of New England the
weather was fair, though with more or
less cloudiness and fog. The showers
and moist weather have improved crops,
though with few exceptions the drought
continues severe and Is injuring corn
and late vegetables.
The average rainfall for the week was
.43 Of an inch. 1t was, however, very
unevenly distributed. While plenteous
showers occurred in many sections of
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Con-
necticut, there were numerous localities
in the northern portion of the district
where there was no rain. The heaviest
rainfall of the week was In the vicinity
of Boston and occurred chiefly on the
afternoon or night of the 22nd. Rain is
still needed in all sections Of New Eng
land, and for the greater portion of it
drought fc
unusually severe.
With slight exceptions crops remain
at standstill in Maine, due to con-
tinuation of the dry weather. The same
conditions obtain for large portion Of
New Hampshire and Vermont. All
crops, in territory mentioned, are suf-
fering and many are permanently in
jured, past recovery, and, in few in
stances, have been destroyed. The in
jury Is greatest to late corn, meadows,
pastures, garden vegetables, beans,
vines, berries, and to fruit generally.
Rain, If it comes soon, will save many
crops, and greatly improve others that
will otherwise prove total loss In the
southern parts of the district, where
general showers occurred the early part
of the week, followed by several days of
moist, cloudy weather, with dense fogs
in coast sections, crops are greatly i'm
proved, grass and vegetation generally
being refreshed and again making
rapid growth. More rain is much needed
here and would be very beneficial to all
late crops, especially to grass. Yet crops
will mature without great loss, even If
the dry weather continues, unless dam
aged by early frost. In addition to in
juring crops the dry weather is also de-
laying fall blowing and seeding.

PRICES SOARING UPWARD.
Many Strong Features In the Trade Situation.
Scarcity OF Beef Cattle.

Strength of prices and steadiness of de-
mand are still the salient features of the
trade situation. Iron, steel and other
metals, most bf the cereals, leather and
cotton goods manifest upward tenden-
cies as to prices. Other staples, with
the exception Of sugar and anthracite
coal, retain all their old firmness Fall
demand Is expanding at most markets,
particularly good reports being received
from the northwest, and that portion
of the corn growing country which this
year seems likely to be notable for sur
plus production. Current railway earn
ings maintain the promise of earlier
weeks. Aggressive strength is noted in
iron and steel. Consideration Of next
years needs now seems to be the most
prominent feature of the trade, aside
from complaints Of slow deliveries on
nearby orders.
Wheat has been quite firm all the
week, partly owing to the whiting
down of northwestern estimates, but
also due to steady demand for the cash
article, alike on foreign and domestic
account.
Additionally strong features In the
general trade situation are the active
demand for lumber at most markets
at steady prices, and the firmness in the
higher grades of wool, Notwithstanding
less active buying. A supporting fea-
ture in this latter case, however, is the
active demand reported alike for mems
and womens wear woolens.
Conditions of supply and demand
seem to be at the bottom of the recent
rise in beef prices. This advance has
attracted increased receipts Of grass
fed cattle, and some shading Of quota
tions Is noted.

AFFAIRS In FRANCE.

Dreyfus replied vigorously to his
enemies in Wednesdays proceedings,
calling the charges against his charac ter
tittle-tattle, and demanding that facts
be given. Esterhazy's Matchmaking let
ter to the President Of France, in which
he threatened to appeal to the kaiser,
was read. Labori made the prosecution
vince by showing that Esterhazy was
shielded by the general staff.
Thursday was another field day for
Labor. He showed up Mercier In very
bad light the latter admitting that he
did not follow the Esterhazy trial. Col
onel Maurel, president Of the former
court-martial, on the stand confessed
that one document of the secret dosser
convinced him of Dreyfus' guilt, Drey-
fus denied making a confession.
Friday was apparently a good day in
the prisoners cause. Bertillon, the
anti-Dreyfus handwriting expert, &C.
cupied almost the entire session in ex-
pounding his theories. Colbert stated
clearly that Dreyfus was not guilty, and
told how he was harshly treated because
Of that opinion. Obscure physicians
say De Clam Is sick.
M. Bertillon resumed his testimony
this morning regarding the handwriting
of Dreyfus and his reasons for believing
the artillery officer guilty.
Saturdays testimony showed that the
army chiefs are trying to hide the truth
behind dead men. The villany OF
MERCER and his gang was exposed by
Captain Freystaetter. who declared that
Mercier and Maurel have deliberately
lied about examining the secret dossier
