ADVANCE IN PRICES.
Binder Twine Market Rises Half Cent and
Is Still on the Up Grade.


Confirming predictions in our former
comments on Binding Twine, prices
have advanced one-half cent per pound
on all grades. This advance is made
on the strong position of the fiber
market, and indications are that pres
ent prices will be maintained, although
even higher prices may prevail in the
very near future.
Consumption will be larger than an
ticipated as, from farm papers of the
Mississippi valley, larger amount of
twine than usual will be required for
the oat harvest, an increase of at least
25 per cent by most conservative esti-
mate. Wheat straw is large and grain
lodged, thus demanding more twine
where only an average was looked for
q few weeks since. This means a
shortage OF twine in the East.
A careful canvass of the Northwest
indicates that home manufacturers are
we'll prepared to take care of the market
of this section, and native pride would
dictate that, other things being equal,
home products should be given prefer
ence. Brands with no superior in
quality, and an excellence such as pos
sessed by the Cover Leaf Brand with
lower cost per l 200 feet, also a market
near at hand, dealers should not hesi-
tate in making up their orders. At
present, however, heavy shipments are
being made, and orders should be placed
at once as better attention can be given
to early orders than where punched so
near harvest time.

SAVED BY AN INDIAN.
How Bloody Revolt of Negro Slaves
In New Jersey Was Avcrted.

How a Bloody Revolt of Negro Slaves
In New Jersey Was Avcrted.
A bloody and desperate revolt was
once threatened by the negro slaves Of
the AcQuackanonck district OF New
Jersey, and were 1t not for drunken
Indian there would have been an awful
slaughter Of the whites.
Shortly after the Revolution the
slaves demanded their emancipation.
Some OF the New York farmers had
freed their slaves, most Of whom went
to the Ramapo mountains, where they
found unoccupied land. Stragglers ap-
peared among the New Jersey slaves
and had little trouble spreading dissen-
sion. The Dutch farmers were not yet
ready to abolish slavery and refused
the demands made upon them. The
slaves became inSolent and hard to
manage. They even went so far as TO
threaten dire vengeance, but little at
tention was paid to their mutterings.
The negroes formed a secret society.
and held meetings in the woods and in
deserted houses. At last their plans
were about complete for general re-
volt. A meeting was called In an old
distillery which used to stand near Pas
sale. Negroes came from every dlrec-
| ton, and by midnight nearly a hundred
were gathered there, The leaders made
excited speeches advocating the slaugh.
ter Of all the men In the community.
They were eager for revolt and were
to be informed just when to strike,
The slaves Of each family were to take
| care Of their own masters. What was
| to become Of them afterward was not
considered, nor were there any plans Of
escaping the punishment which would
surely be inflicted on them. They were
| for blood, regardless Of consequences.
An old Indian had spent the day at
the distillery, and the man in charge OF
the vats had amused himself by getting
the redSkIn drunk. He fell just outside
the door, and lay there in a drunken
stupor. He was awakened about mid
night by the loud voices of the excited
slaves, and after time realized the
purpose of the meeting. He knew that
the farmers would reward him with
whisky and tobacco IL he carried them
the news, and lost no time in doing so.
He went to several farm houses before
he could find any one who would be-
lieve the story, for no one thought that
the slaves really intended to make trou-
BILE. Investigation showed that he was
telling the truth, and the farmers sur
rounded the distillery. The leaders were
arrested and carried to Newark in
chains. Many of the slaves were lash
ed by their owners until all thought Of
rUolt was beaten out of them.

BLOWING UP OF THE MAINE.
Gen. Fitzhugh Lees Theory of the
Destruction of the Vessel.

zen. EttZhuRh Lees Theory OF the
Destruction of the Vessel.
In his interesting address In this city
Monday evening General Fitzhugh Lee
gave his theory regarding the destruc-
ton of the battleship Maine, says the
Indianapolis Journal. After relating
the circumstances of the explosion and
describing the scene of fire and car
mage he witnessed on visiting the local
ity few minutes after the event, he
said:
"My theory is that it was done by
young officers who had been attached
to Weyler. After the catastrophe they
disappeared. Young officers of the
Spanish army did not take the trouble
to hide their pleasure over the horrible
affair. Many of them dropped their u.s.
ual potations Of red wine and opened
bottles of champagne in the cafes.
The government of Cuba Immediately
tried to forestall European opinion by
sending a dispatch which stated that
the explosion had been caused by the
SdlClCoolGSS VI NIC LACLl
selves. AS to that | want to say that
the keys to the magazine of every
American man-of-war are brought to
the captain and are hung on hooks at
know where they are all the time.
When the divers went to work on the
Maine Captain Sigsbee said to them:
go into my cabin and see If the keys
to the magazine are hanging where
they ought to be- The divers came up
with the keys. They had found them
hanging by the side Of the captains
bed. Furthermore, the investigation
brought out that the plates of the fore
part Of the ship were bent upward,
showing clearly that the force of the
explosion had been directed from the
bottom. The court Of inquiry heard
plenty of testimony which showed that
there had been two explosions; one
when the torpedo went off and tore Its
way to the ships magazine, and the
other when the magazine itself ex-
ploded with roar"
The real cause of the destruction of
the Maine Is still a mystery, though
there is strong reason for accepting
General Lees view. The report of the
United States court Of inquiry sus.
tained the theory of an outside ex.
plosion, but said 1.-The court has been
unable to obtain any evidence fixing
the responsibility for the destruction
Of the Maine upon any person or per
sons" The solution of such mysteries
come in time, when those who are In
possession of the secret think the right
time has come.
