BAILEY ASSAULTS BgveRlDoE


Senator Joseph W. Bailey of Texas
treated the Senate to a pugilistic scene
just after adjournment Monday, when
be sprang upon Senator Beveridge of In
diana and choked him as he sat in his
chair in the chamber. Had not several
Senator's and attendants rushed to the
aid of the Indiana man and pulled off Bal
ley the result might have been more seri-
Gus. A slight shaking and torn neck
tie were the only injuries sustained by
Mr.. Beyeridge In the scuffie his desk,
which was screwed to the floor, was part
" turned over by the onset of the massive
Texan.
The sensational attack by Bailey was
the result of a remark made by Senator
Beyeridge. The Texas statesman made
an attack on the officials of the State De-
partment, saying they were either gross
ly incompetent or willfulIy negligent be-
cause they had not secured the release of
citizen of Texas who is confined in Q
Mexican prison and had failed to furnish
Senator Bailey with the papers relating
to the case.
Senator Beveridge defended the depart
ment and said the statements made by
Senator Bailey were ''uhwarranted." This
remark incensed the Texan, who, immedi-
ately after the session ended, walked to
where Senator Beveridge was sitting, and
demanded peremptorily that the Indian

FARMERS FACE RUIN.
CROPS IN DANGER FROM BLIGHT
ING RAIN.
Fields of the Whole West Damaged
by the Incessant Downpour The
Wettest June in Thirty Years-Many
States Are Deluged.

Ruin threatens the farmers of the land
If the rain continues a few days longer
the damage TO the crops throughout the
middle Western and Western States and
the loss TO the farmers will be beyond
calculation. 1t was raining Sunday l'rac-
tically all over the country. and many al
ready flooded States were visited by an
inch or more of rain in twenty-four hours.
The farming communities of Illinois and
surrounding States are face 10 face with
the gEavest kind of a situation. Contin-
ued rain will result in wrecked crops.
Reports show that there were heavy
rains in Illinois, Missouri, Indiana, Iowa,
Ohio. Kansas, Nebraska, New York,
Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Arkansas.
The reports from the Dakotas and Min
nesota indicate that rain in those States
was light, but the great stretches of
wheat land in the Northwest have been
soaked so thoroughly during the month
Of June that the farms are in such bad
shape that very light, continued showers
viii serve to bring the ruin threatened.
Illinois is one of the chief sufferers.
All through the interior as far south as
the Chic river the farms are flooded with
water. Corn fields, wheat fields, mead
ows, pastures and gardens have been
turned into lakes and ponds. Only the
most favorable kind of weather will save
the agricultural communities from heavy
loss, and short continuation of the rains
will mean big losses for hundreds of farm
owners and farm renters.
A low estimate placed on the damage
wrought within a radius of 80 miles of
Alton, H., by the storm of wind and rain
that prevailed Saturday night and Sun
day is 81 100000. While the farmers are
the heaviest losers, the railroads also suf-
,fered severely.
Added to the unreasonable rains there
has been un-June like weather. Il has
been worse than q cool month. The Their
nometer has kept distressingly low. Chi
cago has passed through the most dis
agreeable June it has known in thirty
years with the exception of June, 1892,
which was slightly worse. There have
been nineteen rainy days in the month.
In June, 1892, there were twenty-one
The rainfall for the month was greater
chan that Of any other June except in
1892, when the total was 1888. The
average for the juno of thirty years, with
the exception of 1892, is title more than
Eve inches.
If the rain continues the population Of
the middle West will need whales or
arks for transportation like Jonah Of old
and Noah the patriarch.
