NEw YORK, Jan. l2.-Charles r. Flint
will next week, it is reliably reported,
close a deal for the formation OF trust
in plows and cultiyators, whereby plows
will be advanced in price not
less than ten per cent. The negotiations
have lasted over two years. Ex.Judge
William A. Vincent has secured sixty
written options on the largest plow and
cultivating concerns in Illinois, Indiana,
Ohio, New York, Michigan, and Wis.
consin. These concerns control the plow
business today. However, there have
been many bitter wars in cutting prices
and complications have come to the
front in exporting goods to Mexico and
European countries. Agents have led a
merry war OF cutting prices with the
Mexican trade until the profit has been
wiped ont.

Definition of Mugwump-

The late Secretary Evarts liked fun, and
there was dry wit in his public utter
ances at times that nearly convulsed those
who clearly understood his meaning 1t
was almost impossible for him to avoid
being deep, even in humor, and many a
good fling al political opponents was lost
because he talked above the heads of his
audience, or because his sentences were
too involved. At the time when the Mug
wumps were just beginning to show their
teeth he delivered one of his long political
speeches from the stage of the Grand
marked that he believed the Republican
party need not fear the Mugwumps, as the
latter were only a lot of ''marSupials.''
Some $500 men heard the word, and after
the meeting groups got together to discuss
the meaning of it and its application.
Some went home to look in their diction-
aries, while others called on Mr.. Evarts
for an explanation. ''Marsupials," said
he, ARE born extremely small, imperfect
and quite helpless and have to be carried
in pouches on the bellies of their moth
