Weekly Crop Report.

The weekly crop bulletin, issued July
25th, says that generally the weather
conditions of the past week have been
very favorable for harvest work, and
the advancement of corn, oats, pota-
toes and beans. Dryer weather in
most parts of the southern and central
counties has allowed farmers to secure
wheat and rye and the balance of the
hay crop. Generally wheat has been
secured in good condition and thrash
ing has become quite general in the
southern counties; the yields are very
light as a rule, but the quality is good.
Oats have ripened fast and cutting has
been quite generally begun in the
southern counties; reports indicate
that the oat crop will be very good and
in many cases exceptionally so. Corn,
beans and late potatoes have continued
to make fine progress. and are in very
promising condition. Corn is tasseling
quite generally, and is setting for ears.
Sugar beet thinning is about finished
in the more northerly counties, and re-
ports from all sections say that the
crop has made good progress and is in
promising condition. Apples have
been falling badly during the past few
weeks and prospects for a good crop
materially decreased.

Arc Guarding Property and suppressing
Riots During the Cleveland Strike.
About 1900 troops are now acting in
cooperation with the regular force of
Cleveland, under direction of the
mayor and the head of military power
of the state in preserving order and
pro Getting the property of the street
railway company. Although thu cars
are run at regular intervals it is a
noticeable fact that most of them are
either empty or carry very few passen-
gers. The company has announc d
that they will take back $50 of the old
men, provided they would apply indi-
vidually. The men insist that every
man must be taken back, and above all,
that the union must be recognized by
the company. 1t is estimated that the
company is losing thousands of dollars
every day and will sooner or later con-
cede the demands Of the strikers.

Mrs. maybrIok VIII Not be Pardoned.

The friends of Mrs Florence May
brick, the alleged murderer of her hus-
band, have for some time past been
trying to obtain her release from the
English prison, but all efforts have
been blasted. 1t will be remembered
that 10 years ago the woman was con.
victed of the crime on no evidence of
guilt and sentenced to death by an
English jury. Upon a petition signed
by 5000 persons, mostly American
men and women, her sentence was
committed from death to life imprison-
ment. During her 10 years confine.
ment in Jail her friends have several
times tried to secure her release. Wig
orous efforts were recently made by
Joseph Chonte, the American ambassa-
dor in London, to secure her release,
but the decision in the house of COM
mons on the cath, in which it was
held that there was no reason for elem
ency in Mrs May bricks case, seems TO
be a final blow to her friends. Mrs.
MAVERICK is now 81 years old, and her
native home is Mobile. Ala.

WAR NOTES.


Regarding the duty to which Adj
miral Dewey may be assigned upon
his arrival at Washington IL is safe To
say that the post has not as yet been
selected. There is apparently no doubt,
however, that the admiral will &c sta
toned in Washington at the head of n
strong board, possibly the board of in
snection and survey, whose duties will
be enlarged so as TO take in questions
of policy relating to ship construction.
Should board of admirals be the re-
suit of the reorganization of the me-
chanical bureaus OF the department, as
promised by those who favor such So
luton next to the retention of the pres
ent system, in case the secretary is de-
termined to modify it, then there is lit
tie doubt that the admiral will be made
the head of the board.
A recent meeting of veterans of the
Cuban war of independence is causing
considerable comment. Mayla Roderi-
guez presided at the meeting, at which
the organization declared itself to be
the only legal representative of the
Cuban revolution. A resolution was
adopted demanding that the United
States make formal declaration of its
intentions and supposed rights, based
upon the resolution passed by congress
in April, 1898. The Cuban census
commissioners, recently appointed,
were criticised, papers saying they
were nonentities and unknown men,
whose work would be unacceptable to
the Cubans. Gen. Andrade said the
United States was fast sucking Cuba
dry.
