EBENBURG, CAMBRIA CO., PA. fill DA Y. MAY 3rt. ISU3. CoStiKKjifMA.N KlUiOKK, Of TeXHS, U3 credited wilh saying that President Cleveland told him in reply to an in quiry made with a view ofdeeiding some domestic arrangments that he might expect0 extra tsion of Congress be tween the lt and loth of September. The tlootld of last week throughout Northern Idaho and the western part of Minnesota reached the highest point known to the oldest residents and the damage done amounts to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Several of the largest bridges on the Union Pacific and Northern Pacific roads were washed away. Pkinckss Ki laue of Spain arrived in Wici.incrtiin Kriilav evenincr and was met at the depot by Secretary Gresham, as tlie representative of the president, and escorted to the Arlington Hotel. Four companies of cavalry from Fort Myer preceded the president's carnage, which was sent for the use of the In fanta. Skcretaky Caklj6LE has announced his intention of proceeding in the de portation of the Chinese until the ap propriation is exhausted. But 116,000 is now available, though $50,000 more will be ready by July 1. He intends be ginning with those who are here in vio lation of the law of 1884, those having violated the Geary law coming next. The government of Nicaraugua has notified the Pacific Mail Steamship Company that their vessels must not stop at San Juan while that port is in the hands of the revolutionists, but may land passengers, mail and freight at Cor into. No movements of importance are being attempted by the revolutionsits, as thev are waiting for more arms and amunition. Secretary Carlisle has informed congressmen that he intends to discharge every Republican in the treasury depart ment who is not protected by the civil service law. He says that he has given the otticials of the department to under stand that this will be his policy and that they will not be dismissed on any charges, but solely for the reason that thes are Republicans and that the places are wanted for Democrats. The process of liquidation, or squeez ing the water or inflated stocks, is costly one, but the country at large does not suffer very much from it. Legiti mate business, after the flurry, rather profits. Since January the New York World figures up that the decline in the price of stocks of the nine leading "in dustries," including cotton oil, sugar, whisky, electric, cordage, etc., has been tUtt.SSO.OOO. Rut this collapse forced the sale of other stocks U'tween January and May is put at 2S7,(HM,000. This is a tremendous showing, and yet the country still lives. The bill for the first week s loard of the duke of Yerugua at the Auditorium hotel, Chicago, with carriage hire in eluded, has just come to hand at the slate department, and it amounts to the pretty figure of $2,500. Under these circumstances the State department has hoped and expected that the cities which the duke was to visit, like New York and Chicago, would do something handsome in the way of helping to bear the expense. Secretary Gresham paid he would pay all bills presented on ac count of the entertainment of the in fanta and theduke according to the instruction of Congress At 3:50 p. m. last Saturday, in dark ness like midnight, a hailstorm broke loose over Pittsburg, exceeding in its fury and damages any before known in western Pennsylvania. Several run aways occurred, many persons were in jured and the loss of property caused ty the storm will exceed a million dollars. The hailstones were about the size of English walnuts. The storm lasted scarcely ten minutes. Two funeral pro, cessions were wrecked the horses run ning away, with shocking results. A heavy rainstorm succeeded the hail, and increased the damages. The storm ex tended up the Allegheny river as far as Tarentum. The friendly mediation of the United States, exercised through Secretary Gresham, has averted a serious rupture between the governments of Japan and Corea. These governments were on the verge of war, because of Corea refusing to compensate Japanese merchants for losses sustained through Corea suddenly prohibiting certain exports (in view of apprehended famine) in which Japanese traders were largely interested. The Corean government has finally agreed to pay the Japanese government an in demnity of $110,000 in settlement of the claims of the Japanese merchants, the sum being a compromise between the sum originally demanded by Japan and that offered by Corea. The total immigration for ten months of the fiscal year ending April 30 was 334,825 a decline of 120,000 from the ten corresponding months of the previ ous year. The arrivals from Russia and Poland show the greatest falling off, the reduction being from 94,(00 to 34, 0(H). The Italian immigration shows no abatement. This ig the work of the padrones. There was a very slight de cline in the arrivals from great Britain and Ireland. The new coiiimiioner of immigration, Mr. Stump, of Maryland, proposes that the laws shall be rigidly enforced, and if that is done the country will be amply protected against the un desirable, atllietetl and criminal class; that is about as well it can Itu protect ed toh oil of absolute exclusion. The last issue of BradMreH' contains the results of a systematic inquirj m. .. - ; iL. I condition of rural roads all over u,e country and the effect of the interrup- tion of trade br bad roads on the farm- er And the merchant. The information on both points is valuable, but on the latter is perhaps the most conclusive showing yet made. Th ir.miirv shows a fair amount of - - - -1 j improved roadways in Southern ew England. Eastern Massachusetts being the sectiou making the best showing, but secon in all probability to New Jer sey or the part of it lying between Phila delphia and New York, where the best and most rapidly extending system of i mi. roved country roads is found. The southeastern parts of New York and - i - - Pennsylvania are in the favorable list. and some of the Maryland roads are classified as g.xxl highways. Outside of these sections the general prevalence of dirt roads remains unbroken. As to the effect of bad country roads on business the returns amount very nearly to absolute demonstration. From Maine to Tex as and from Georgia to Minnesota prices oi larm prouueus have been advanced unduly because of delays to interior wagon traffic by heavy roads," and of course the farmers can get no benefit from these high prices, the bad roads being the barrier between producers and consumers. The unfav orable effect from the same cause on mercantile collections, loans to fanners and interest is abundantly testified to. while a multitude of replies show an ad vance in farm values where roads have been improved varying from 10 to 100 percent, and averaging 15 per cent. The conclusion of the journal making these inquries is the pregnant one that the loss to the country by bad country roads is more than double the annual expendi ture for road repairing, and would in two years cpme near the cost of grid ironing the districts east of the Missouri river with the best class of roads. Such facts as these render indisputa ble proof of what has heretofore ttcen as serted. In collecting them Unuhtreti' has rendered a distinct public service. Thf greatest banking and financial greatest naniting ana nnanciai authority in the world, perhaps, is the Right Hon. William Linderdale, who was governor of the bank of England last year and now is a director in that won derful institution. He last week talked freely with a New York World corre spondent on the financial situation, and made two especially notable observations. 1. That America has not enough curren cy for its people's needs, i. e., for the business of the country, and 2, that in all probability "the United States will pull gold from us. (England) in the au tumn," i. e.. the current of gold will by fall be changed from flowing to Eu rone to coming from Europe. The cor rectness of the first statement is realized daily by the great body of tradesmen all over the country, and this fact has had much to do with bringing about the ex- isting powerful sentiment in favor of the free coinage ef silver. The second state ment, tieing purely prophetic, we can only hope it may prove to be equally correct. Two convicts in the western peniten tiary engaged in a desperate fight with knives on Wednesday afternoon. Roth were seriously but not dangerously hurt. A third convict, who attempted to sep arate the combatants, was seriously cut in the breast. Two of the fighters were removed to the hospital department of I the prison. The fight occurred in the I broom making department of the insti tution. The desperate battle was the result of an old fend between the two prisoners. Several times recently they have had a wordy fight and both were being closely watched by their keepers. When they came together both fought viciously. It required the keeper and several convicts to separate them. In the struggle both prisoners fell to the floor and both slashed and cut at the other. The penitentiary authorities refused to give out any information about the case. The fight will be reported to the prison board when it meets. On Friday the Governor sent a message to the Legislature annonncing his ap proval of the following bills: Requiring school directors to furnish books and other school supplies free of cost, known at the Farr free text book bill; to estab lish a medical council and three State boards of medical examiners; extending the power of the courts to appoint elec tion ofticers in certain cases; providing for the immediate printing and distribu tion of unbound copies of the state laws as they are enacted; to establish boards of arbitration to settle matters of variance between capital and labor; to empower courts to fix the place of hold ing the general election; providing that I voters shall cast their ballots at polling places inside the election district in which they are domiciled; directing . . .... county commissioners to bind and pre- serve weekly newspapers published in their counties. The Mint officials have received word that counterfeits of the World's Fair souvenir half-dollars are in the market aleeady and as they are made of coin silver, they are not easy to detect. It is 6aid that they area trifle light in weight and a shade smaller in circumference than the genuine, which, however, only appears when they are stacked up to gether. In the words "Columbian Half Dollar" the V is not quite perfect, and the medallion head of Columbus leans a little to the right. As it takes about 30 cents' worth of silver to make one, and their market value is a dollar, their man manufacture leaves a good margin of profit. As the coin bears no mint mark, it is comparatively easy to counterfeit. The report of the department of agri culture for May renders it reasonably certain that the wheat crop this year will tie below the average of the years be tween 1880 and 18'JO, or less than 450, M)O,O0O bushela.

Postmaster icneral Jisseli has had to devote so niucli time to me selection of postmasters that he hasn't made very many changes in his depart ment, but he will, as will Attorney Gen eral Olney and Secretaries luooiit and Herltert. Judge Lochrcn believes he will kill one of the principal roots of the jicnsion evil by making the Medical ISoards which examine applicants for tensions entirely Iteniocratif, instead of allowing one he- publican on each board of three as has been done. Speaking of this change he is quoted as saying: "One of the things the Itemocrats have committed them-, selves to do is to sift as far as possible the rubish which has been drifting into this pension cesspool. The parly 1ms committed itself to reform in this mat ter, and there is no better, way to make a start than by having only Democrats on these Itourds." 1 liu not state it asa fact that President Cleveland has ap proved this action of Judge Iochren, but it is hardly probable that such a rad ical change would have Iteeu announced by him unless it had Iteen previously ap proved by the President. Much more or less silly talk has Iteen indulged in this week altoiit the proba bility of a war with China Itecause of the Supreme Court having declared the Geary law constitutional. Needlss to say neither the President nor Scretary Gresham have the remotest idea that there will be any serious trouble with China. The Chinese, minister told Sec retary Gresham that his government would not take any retaliatory Steps, and that it would, as far as possible, protect Americans in China from any attack ...t.:..i. .1... : ... ...;..;.

Many Congressmen who voted for the Geary act have an nounced their willingness to vote for an amendment to allow the Chinese now here to stay, in preference to appropria ting the money necessary to send them to China.

"Prove that the man you name has been an offensive partisan," said he to a Senator and several Repre sentatives who had called to ask for the removal of a Republican official," and I will remove him as soon as I can find a good Democratic successsr." m. Terrific Wind at Cleveland. Cleveland, May 23. A terrific wind Struck this city at W o'clock this morn ing. Four men were instantly killed and many injured iu the numerous cas- ualities, A scaffold, blown from lt- fastenings by the high wind, seriously, and in one case fatally, injured four men employed by the Cleveland Gas, Light and Coke company. It had been found necessary to elevate a brick chimney on top of the IJrady block, at the corner of Superior and Erie Street, and for this purjiose a scaffold had Iteen built up twenty feet above the 6ix-6tory building. Seeing the storm coming the men working on it ran for shelter. The wind was soon upon it, and, with a tearing of timlters, the whole mass was broken loose. 1 1 dropped straight down the side of the building until the second floor was reached. Here it was caught by another I gust of -vind and hurled with terrific force toward the gully where, it lauded with a crash that was heard for bloc ks around. Twenty men under rorenian Jaetson, of the gas company, were at work in the gully. They were working hard to get the ditch just dug covered up so as not to block the sewer when the rain fell. The huge mass of heavy tim bers fell right ia their midst. They were all thrown off their feet by the crash, and all but four of their number imme diately sprang up. The men could not arise, as they were pinioned down by heavy timlter. A general alarm was sent throughout the city. They responded promptly and j the work of rescue began. As soon as the men were extricated they were hus tled away to the Lakeside hospital. Solid 0lI Found. Spokane Falls, Wash., May 24.

Oppressed by poverty and weary of the struggle for existence a mother and daughter ended their lives with poison last night at their home near here. Mrs. Agnes Burton and her daughter lived at North Wales and was very poor. The daughter earned $5 working in a web factory and this was the main supjtortof the two women. Worn out by their effort to make a liv ing they determined to die. From the meagre evidence before the coroner it seems the mother first gave strychnine to her daughter and then took the poi son herself and both were dead iu a short time.

Cave to the World the Chilled Plow. into OLIVER CHILLED PLOWS MADE ONLY BV THE Oliver Chilled Plow Works, South Bend, Indiana, ARE THE BEST GENERAL PURPOSE PLOWS IN THE WORLD. A strong statement but a true one, for these plows are better known, have reached a larger sale, have had a longer run, have proved more popular and given better satisfaction than any other plows oa the face of the globe. We mean the GENUINE OLIVER, and not the imitations claim ing to be the Oliver, or equally as good. Such imitations are on the market, placed there by unscrupulous manufacturers who seek to trade on the good name of the Oliver. Look out for imitations, buy only the genuine Oliver plows and repairs, and be sure you are right before you take the plow home. JtaOnce more Beware of "bogus" Oliver plows and repairs, and take none but the genuine, made by the Oliver Chilled Plow Wokks, South Bend, Indiana.
