THE PTTTSBiniG DISPATCH. .'WEDNESDAY JUNE 15, 189a THE BUSINESS WORLD. Tanners All Over Michigan, Iowa and Canada Are Smiling Now OYER BETTER CROP PROSPECTS. One Eebellions Labor Han Causes an Iron Strike In Kew lork. FJEES, FAILUBES AKD BAILWAI KEWS Dkteoit, June 14. The weekly i report of the Michigan "Weather Service, Issued to-day, indicates that the weather has been generally favorable for crops. Continued tram weather and occasional showers are needed to insure a good yield. Cut worms are doing considerable damage in some of the northern counties. Potatoes and corn are not all planted, especially on low ground where the water still stands. Wheat, corn, oats and barley are in good condition, while meadows and pastures are heavy. Cherries, peas, plums and apples to a certain extent hare been blighted in the central counties. Iowa weather crop bulletin says: This has been a very favorable week for farm operations and for all crops. The daily average temperature was about 3 above normal, with more tbau the usual amount or sunshine, and the rainfall was generally sufficient to keep the soil in good condition ior vegetation. uorn pinnnnp is very uimrj j completed, and cultivation Is in progress. The stand is about as Rood as in ordinary seasons, and not more than the usual amount of replanting is necessitated be cause of poor seed and unseasonable weath er. The acreage is materially decreased, bnt with seasonable weather a lair crop mav be produced. Small grain, meadows and pasture are doinz well. The Ontario Government crop report, Just issued) states that present conditions point to a first-class crop of fall wheat. An extra good crop may be expected should the bright; warm weather continue. The pros pects of spring wheat are up to the averase, bnt success is dependent upon warm weather. The condition of barley is fair, but backward, with the prospect of a very much decreased total yield, unless the weather soon becomes and continues more favorable. The acreage is still decreasing. More than an average crop of oats jnav be expected should the weather be favorable for the next few weeks. The indications over almost the entire province are that there will be an extra line crop of peas. A heavy field of hay is assured. The following is from the bulletin issued from the Weather Bureau at Washington: Over the greater portion of the principal agricultural districts of the country the week has been warmer than usual, and in the cential valleys and the lake lesions, ex cept Western Lake Superior, the temper atures have averaged from 3 to 7 above the normal, the region of sreateit excess of tem- eratnre extending irom Kansas north to ake Huron. The rain has been less than usual over much of the creater part of the XTnlted States. A marked deficiency is shown in the Lower Ohio, Lower Missouri and Central Mississippi valleys, where very little rain has fallen, and the deficiencies at numerous stations amount to one inch or more. Over an extensive area extending from the Upper Missouri Valley southwestward to the Mexi can border there was a total absence of rain during the week. Vorv heavy rains fell in extreme Southern Florida, where from four to five inches nre reported, and there is an excess in the Upper Mississippi Valley, Upper Ohio Vallev, and ih portions ot the Middle and South Atlantlo States. Unusually heavy rains also occurred over portions of Central Montana, and there was, in general, a Might excess over Wyoming and Utah, and thence westward to the Pacific coast . The weather crop bulletin of Missouri pars: This has been the most favorable week of the season for agricultural pursuits and interests, and the report of little rain, warmth and plenty or sunshine is too uni versal to admit of much comment. Summar ized the conditions are as follows: Corn planting and replanting has been rushed through. The ground is still wet in many places, but planting will be finished by the 18th. Though the heat and sunlight are malt ing wonderful imnrovementln its condition. the corn is generally of poor color, and some damage by ants is reported. Wheat is im proving rapidly in condition and color, but there is some damage by rust, and the low land crop is seriously injured. IE0H MEH SHUT OTJt AT HEW Y0BK.

The eleotions for members of the Constitutional Assembly, composed of Senators and Representatives, sitting together to settle upon the changes to be made in the Constitution, have com menced in Belgium. In several 'of the manufacturing districts, work has been entirely suspended and the workingmen are devoting all their energies to securing the return of their candidates, all of whom are in favor of so changing the Constitution as to bring about manhood suffrage. Other questions are also to be discussed by the assembly, including the question of choosing Senators by a different set of electors from those returning the Repre sentative Chamber, and of empowering the King to submit great national questions, if such should arise, to the direct vote of the people, as in Switzerland. On this latter proposal great difference of opinion prevails and party feeling runs very high. The Clerical or Catholic party supports the electoral system, based npon habitation and occupation, which has been formulated by the Government, and Liberals advocate uni versal or manhood suffrage. Returns alreadjr received from Kamur show that the Clerical candidates, who were members of the last Parliament, have been re elected. Catholics have re-elected their candidates by large majorities in Bruges, Louvain and several other towns. Minis ters Beernaert, De Bruyn and De Burlet and all the party leaders are re-elected. The Liberals have lost three seats in Charleroi. Great excitement prevails in Liege, where rival demonstrations led to disturb ances. In Brussels the streets were crowded and several free fights occurred, but without serious result. The disorders at Ath continue. The Catholic club has been wreeked.

Large and excited crowds gathered this evening in all the towns of Belgium to offer congratulations to the successful can didates. Forty-four Clericals and 30 Liberals have been elected to the Senate. In addition, the the Clericals head the poll, in ten districts where supplementary ballots are neces sary, and the Liberals in only one. The Clericals already have a majority ot 40 in the Chamber of Representatives. The Liberal press is exultant over the tesult of the contest in Brussels, claiming that it will effectually prevent a Conservative majority of two tenths, which is necessary for effecting a re vision of the constitution. The Catholic papers, on the other hand, are elated over the success of the Clerical candidates in the provinces. A TRUST MAGNETS CLOSE CALL.

Sparrow Hughes' Remains Found, but Bis Diamond Is Gone and HIS POCKETS TURNED INSIDE OUT. The Coroner and District ittornej Investigate Thoroughly. Will ILL THE PASSENGERS SUBP(EXAED The body of William Hughes, better known as "Sparrow," who was drowned from the steamer City of Pittsburg on the night of the excursion down the Ohio river, was recovered at Aliquinpa on Monday evening and brought to Alle gheny yesterday afternoon. The body was frightfully swollen from being in the water. There is a contusion on the head that looks as if it might have been inflicted by a black jack, and the Coroner has ordered a post mortem examination to learn whether death resulted from drowning or from injury received before the body entered the water. There are two suspicious circumstances in connection with the case. Hughes was par ticularly careful at all times as to his dress and always wore in his cravat a diamond pin valued at 5125. When William Brown, a former business partner of the deceased, first saw the body at Aliquippa yesterday morning he noticed that the collar, cravat ana aiamono. were missing, ana, wniie me other clothing was on the body, the pockets were turned inside out and everything had been removed from them except a bunch of keys and a small memorandum book. It is positively asserted that Hughe wore his cravat, collar and diamond on the night of his death. The body was found by a river man. He received from Hughes friends a reward of (50 which had been offered. Coroner Mc Dowell will be assisted by District Attorney Burleigh in ferreting out the cause of death. The body was viewed on its arrival in Allegheny yesterday by a jury composed of ex-Mavor Brush, foreman; 8. Paisley, Sr., George W. Burt, John T. Hartigan, Dominec Gallagher and H. Grant Miller. The Coroner placed subpeenas in the hands of the police to have every person who was on the boat appear at the inquest in the Coroner's office Saturday morning. A police officer told the Coroner he knew every person ' on the boat that night and could produce them when desired. The investigation will be thoroughly made. The remains of Hughes-will be buried from the Roman Catholic Church at Woods' Run to-day. He leaves a mother and two sisters who have the sympathy of a large circle of mends. Inspector Whitehouse was suspended from the police force yesterday by Superin tendent O'Mara. A hearing will be given to Whitehouse, Detective McTighe and Officer Manion on Chiet Brown's return to day or to-morrow as to their presence on the boat THEY PLUNGED ON JINGLE BELLS. An Amusing Little Story on Thought Trans ference and Horse Racing. New York Tribune. J "I suppose you would like a little story about thought transference, wouldn't you?" said the "psychological fiend's" friend. "At any rate, I'm going to tell it to you. It's such a good example of what I believe that I ought to tell it to yon. "I went to the races the other day. I don't know a good horse from a bad one. I don't know enough about racing to tell you the difference between the post and the stretch, bnt I made up my mind that as I was at the races I would take in the whole thing and bet on every race. I picked out a name In the first race that I liked and bet on it It didn't will. I did the same thing in the second and third,races and I didn't win. I was just about to loot oyer the card for a horse in the fourth race whose name would please my ear, when I saw Stevens coming my way. " 'Hallo, Stevens,' I said, 'what are you doing? " 'Playing the races, says Stevens. " 'Won anything?' " 'Jfop.' " 'Know anything about these horses?' "'Nop. " " 'Know anything about racing?" "'Nop. " 'Well, neither do L What are you going to play this time?' " 'Don't know; let's take a look. "we started to run over the list of horses when we both cried out in the same breath, 'Jingle Belli' That settles it,' I said; 'here is as clear case of thought transfer ence. We'll have to play Jingle Bells. Think I'll plunge a little on Jingle Bells. I believe that is the proper thing to do at the races. " Til go you on a plunge,' said Stevens. "So we bet on Jingle Bells. Well, Jingle Bells was about last at the start. He wasn't much better when they had been going it for some time, and Stevens and I didn't think much of our plunge. But the first thing we knew we saw Jingle Bells coming along like a streak of lightning. I never saw anything go so fast as that horse. He just flashed past every other horse in the race as if the rest were cows. " 'Stevens, old man I' I cried, excitedly, 'that's the easiest money I ever made in my life. Look at that horse run!' and we just stood there in breathless amazement and watched them finish." ' "How much did you make on the race?" some one asked. , "Ob.Ve didn't make anything. Ton see Jingle Bells stopped running before the finish." FAIIIHGS OF THE GREATEST OF MEH, Tho World Has Been Lenient In Its Judg ment ot Illustrious Sinners. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. 1 Ihe foremost statesmen and soldiers of our country have all done things of an ir regular and offensive kind, but we never think of denouncing them for suoh actions. We grant them a certain freedom of per sonal remissness that we deny to men who have not accomplished important, results. "Washington has been idealized to such an extent that he stands as a model of all the virtues, and yet the fact is well attested that he was by no means perfect He flirted with handsome women and bet money on horse races and swore vigorously when his purposes were crossed. His bear ing was always lofty and supercilious, and he frequently made enemies by his ar bitrary and dictatorial method of dealing with fiis subordinates and with the public. But bis large and shining deeds obscure his faults in tbe historical records, and we cherish his memory as that of a supreme patriot who naa tne rignt to disdain com mon rules of personal behavior. Like charity is extended to other great men of that period. Franklin was not an exemplary citizen in all particulars, but his trespasses are for given because of his exceptional ability and his effective devotion to the interests of his country Hamilton's intrigue with Mrs. Reynolds was an unworthy proceeding, but we think of the offense only to admire his courageous and manly acknowledgment ot his guilt to save bis name from the deeper stain that bis detractors were trying to put upon it In all of these cases the privilege of genius to do wrong from time to time is commonly and cheerfully recognized. It is well understood that Lincoln often told stories that were unfit for the drawing room, and that be sometimes failed to pay due deference to visitors ot high standing in their respective professions, but he had a right to suit himself in such respects. He was greater than any of his cotemporaries, and if he cared to be undignified at times as a relaxation from the terrible strain of his office, tbat was his privilege. BARKIS IS WILLIN'. v Brlee'a Lieutenants Working Tip the Rural Districts He Quietly Lays Wires to Capture- the President! Nomination Delegates Expected to Tote for Him. CiNCDfXATi, June 14. Special A confidant of Senator Calvin S. Brice who has been closely watching the situation in Ohio in the selections of delegates to the National Convention, admitted that the Senator had stooped down and written on the inside of the wagon bed "Barkis is Willin'." Of course it has been asserted from time to time that the Senator was a candidate and that he was quietly working his boom, especially through the "rooral deestricts," but this is the first official declaration that has been made as coming from headquarters, and the information is straight - On Sunday two of his trusted lieutenants, Walter Ritchie aud John K. Brice, of Lima, were here in consultation with the local political leaders, Bernard Dalton, Reemelin aud -others! The latter were in formed that the doughty little Senator was s candidate and that if the' State Convention could not instruct for him, it must allow the delegates to Chicago to go uninstrncted. This was agreed to. "Senator Brice has made himself a mil lionaire bv looking after the little points," said a well-posted politician. He is a busi ness man all over and he is after the Presi dencv in a business way. He Is not so fool ish as to believe that it will come to him unsought, and so he has his literary bureau, his lieutenants at work. The country news papers are being worked by his bureau and if the country delegates who go to Chicago don't know all about Brice and his wonder ful shoot into prosperity it will not be his fault The order has gone forth for the Brice club at Lima, his alleged home, to make a big impression at Chicago. Every person who will join the club is to have a new uni form and nis expenses to Chicago paid. The Brice club will make such a big show that Brice himself will come into notice, and the delegates will be impressed. No man was more tickled than Brice when. Hill winged himself bv having that Mid-day Winter Convention called in New Tork. Brice stands very close to Foster and other Re publican leaders, having had the most inti mate business relations with them ior many years, and it is alleged that they will not seriously oppose his candidacy. Brice is very close to Wall street too, and in Wall street a campaign iund can be easily raised. Italy Wilt Attend the Conference. Rome, June 14. The Government has notified Mr. Porter, the American Minister, that Italy accepts the ''invitation to take part in the International Monetary Con ference. A LADY ADVISES LADIES. A Few Secrets From Her Own Experience Which Can Be Profitably Adopted by Others. 1 know a charming lady who knows more beautiful and attractive women than any other lady in this olty. In conversation re cently she said. "I often feel very sorry when I see so many beautitul women so deli cate, aud suffering so much, and I have often asked myself what the reason isT I think ladies do not exercise the proper care. They do not eat nourishing food, tnty are careless of tbeir feet, their necks, their ohests. In tills way they open the door for diseases and those thousands of troubles which so often affllot womankind, but worse than all thoy allow their life and strength to run down to a low ebb. How many women we see con stantly In this condition. They need help they need something to depend upon, some thing that will assist them, some friend in need. 1 know this, largely, irom my own ex perience, for I was once in the same condi tion myself. I thought the matterovercare fully, and decided what I would do. I knew 1 needed a gentle, constant stimulant, some thing; that would assist my vital forces, keep my blood throbbing and act as a tonic. I decided to try Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey, and Its effect has been simply wonderful. I do not know what pains, sickness or weak ness are and I am satisfied ladies generally could be In the same happy condition -by a proper use of the same means." This lady's remarks nre'ntltled to the greatest consideration, for tbey are an Indi cation of what hundreds or ladles have found to be a necessity. It should he borne in mind, however, that it is only puie whiskey which should ever be used, and that Duffy's Pure Malt is the onlyone whioh receives the endorsement or scientists and the recommendations of pbysiolans.
