Crop Prospects.

The publication of the April l cOndi-
ton of the winter wheat and rye crops
by the department of agriculture was
of marked reassuring effect, owing TO
the high percentage of condition re
ported for the winter wheat crop and
the large crop indicated on the basis of
that condition.
Weather reports during the week en-
Courased continued confidence in the
progress of the crops The many
chances of deterioration before maturi-
ty are fully recognized, but the vantage
point Of the present high promise
against future unavoidable contingen-
cies is a substantial point in favor of
keeping up confidence i'm the outlook.
The years crop yields are looked upon
as q vital element in the Improvement
of the depression into which business
has been thrown and the course of the
growth and harvest will be followed

Deal of Much Importance.

The fact of the recent completion of
a Hartman link to the Atlantic sea-
board in the south through the Illinois
Central and the Central of Georgia
points the argument that control of
the Erie is intended for another such
link to the northern seabOaTd. The
present mixed control of the Erie i'm
community with that of other trunk
lines and anthracite carriers would
make such a project of consequence to
the balance of power in the whole rail-
road world. The object is thus invest

TREND TOWARD
HIGHER PRICES
Developments OF Past Week in
Favor of Value of
Securities.
SURPRISE OVER THE ERIE
SETTLEMENT EXPECTED. BUT
NOT BY Mr.. HARTMAN.

New York, April 12.-Developments
last week were in favor of values OF
securities, and prices responded but
in sluggish and irregular fashion.
Great interest conferred in the working
out of the Erie financial settlement
and while underlying sentiment was
general that the settlement would be
effected, the manner of its accomplish
ment came as a surprise and afforded
abundant food for wide conjecture over
the motives and plans underlying the
action followed.
E. II. Harriman's advance of funds
to the Erie was most interesting in tbs
light of his faT-reaChing interests in the
railroad systems of the whole cOun-
try and the possible bearing of the
Erie transaction on the relations OF
those interests is canvassed with keen
interest.

DEAD IN CABIN
Chief Surgeon of American Liner St Louis Shot Himself
 To-Day
NO CAUSE IS KNOWN

New York, June 19.-Dr Thomas w. Small, chief surgeon of the American line steamer St Louis com mitted suicide in his cabin on the steamer early to-day by shooting. No cause for the act is known. He had been absent from the ship all night. When he returned this morning hs appeared to be in a cheerful frame of mind and after chatting pleasantly for time with one of the officers on duty retired to his state room. A moment later the report of a shot was heard and when the door of the doctors cabin was opened he was found dying from a bullet wound in his temple.
 His right hand clutched the re- volver from which the shoe was fired. Dr Small died before an ann bulance surgeon who was immedi- ately summoned reached the ship. Dr Small had been in the employ of the American line nine years and had an extensive acquaintance among ocean travellers. When ashore he lived with his wife in this city.

TIGER ATTACKS MAN

 With Pitchiork.

Los Angeles, Cal, June 19.-Her- mon Gerson, head animal keeper in the East Lake park zoo, was seized by both arms by big male tiger while washing its cage yesterday. The ti- ger stripped both arms of flesh from the elbows down and almost pulled his arms from the sockets. His wife came to the rescue and by tanning the beast in the eyes and breast with a pitchfork pried it's teeth and claws open.
 As the tigers jaws closed on Ger sons arm the keeper, who was hold ing small hose, turned the nozzle ia the animals face The tiger placed a huge paw on Gerson's other arm and the keeper began to call to his wife who was in the Gerson residence near the zoo. The roar of the tiger had created a pandemonium among the animals, and as Mrs Gerson sank pitchfork into the tiger again and again the snarls and yells from the tigers cage redoubled. The fight be- tween the woman and the man-eater lasted several minutes ending only when Mrs Gerson directed the tines Of .he fork against the animals eyes With his arms released. Gerson sa lk to the ground and was later removed to the hospital. Mayor Harper or deTed the bars of the tigers cage strengthened

BATTLE AT DAYBREAK.
The Blue and the Brown Struggling
 for the Bridge.

Pine Camp, N. Y., June 19.-The battle of Pine Plains between the Blue Army the enemy under com mand of Colonel Hatfield of the regu- lar army with 5000 troops, regulars and militia and the brown army con sisting of approximately the same number under command of Brigadier General Clark of the Massachusetts militia, began at daybreak and ragged unabated throughout the morning, the din of musketry and the roar of cannon being distinctly heard in camp. The point at issue is for the brown army to hold pontoon bridge over Black river and force the blues to retreat. The troops are expected in camp this afternoon. They left yesterday afternoon and bivouacked during the night at their respective stations on the plains several miles from camp. The solution of the "problem" will not be prepared for several days.

Taft Late This Morning.

Washington, June l9.-usually an early riser, Secretary Taft was lit- tie late in taking up the business of the day. and it was after 3 o'clock to-day before he came down to breakfast. The principal lower rooms of the K street residence of the secretary were still hlled with magnificent punches of cut flowers, and telegrams of congratuiation were piled high upon sideboard.
 The fatigues and excitement of last night apparently made little im- pression upon Mrs Taft aud other members of the secretary's family and even before the usual breakfast hour all of them were down stairs and deeply engrossed in the morning newspapers, every one of which dis played more or less pleasing like. nesses of the war secretary and can didate on the first pages.
 A sign of the change that has taken place in the official status of Secretary Taft was the appearance of a blue coated policeman at an early hour. who took station at the curb directly in front of the Taft residence. where he or one of his mates will remain constantly on duty, day and night, whenever the candidate is in Washington.
 When the secretary descended from. his bedroom this morning and entered the drawing room he found his first caller in the person of Lieu tenant-General Henry c. Corbln, not only known to the secretary in that capacity. but also in his Incumbeney of the governor generalship of the Philippines. warm personal friend. and last but not least. as an Ohio man. He extended his con gratuIaiions and they were grate- fully received A telegram received over night from a member of his family in the west determgLed Secre- tary Taft to leave Washington this afternoon for Cincinnati. He ex- poets to take the 2 o'clock ttain and stopping in Cincinnati tomorrow. will leave that city in time io reach New Haven Monday to participate fin the reunion of his class of 1878
