—The stable of Mr. Elies Ilesselgesser, of

origin of the fire is not known but is suppos

—The Philadelphia Timet, in speaking of
the Ancient Order of United Workmen, says:

the largest number possible—!lß plus 35-70 th»

The best location in Butler, or in the county,

Wheat Crop Prospects.
WASHINGTON, May lo—Tbe re
j port of the Department of Agricul
! ture for May relates to tbe condition
of winter grain, progress of spring
I plowing and proportion of the pro
! posed cotton already planted. It in-
I dicates a decline in tho condition of
wheat <if" two points since April I, the
general average for the whole coun
try being 80 against 05 at the same
date in 18H<>, 70 in 1885 ami 04 in
j 188-i. In tho winter wheat regiou.
; sorjie States show an increase, the ma
jority a slight decline and a few heavy
falling off. The States of tho Middle
Atlantic coast, from Pennsylvania to
North Carolina, show some improve
ment, reasonable weather haying aid
ed tho plant iu repoyering more than
was expected for tho iujury done by
the trying season, during February
aud March. Drought has reduced
tho average somewhat in the Eastern
(julf States aud has wrought very
serious damage in 'JV-vas and Arkan
sas, lowering the condition during tho
month 10 aud 10 points respectively.
| The prospect in Tennessee, West Vir
ginia aud *£&ntu<;ky iu bettor than it
has averaged in May for the past five
years. The most serious reduction of
the month is in Ohio, where there is
a falling off of 8 points sineo the first
of April, due to tiio continued evil ef
fects of the alternate freezing and
thawing and to the cold weather dur
ing the greater pait of April. A fa
j vorable season after April 1 might
have, in a great measure, repaired tho
injury (iotyo up t(, I};*L tjtp.e. b;jt the
continued unfavorable conditions have

BURGLAKSUPIN FOREST CO.
A. Desperate and Fatal AiTray in
Which Young Wagner Killed
Ono of the Ruffians and Shot
Another.
CLARION, May G —The storv of
the attempted burglary and killirg of
oue man aiid wounding another, as
partly described in the Pittsburg JJlS
patch this morning, challenges ro
mance as the particulars come out,
the actors being well-known charac
ters in this section of the State. A
corrected version is as follows: On
Tuesday eveniug last lour men ap
proached the residence of Jacob Wag
ner iu Forest county, just over the
Clarion county line. They found
Mrs. V.'agutr going to the spring
house. Oue of the number covered
her with his revolver, telling her to
keep quiet. The other three kicked
in the door of the dwelling and at
tempted to subdue the old man Wag
ner and his two sons. A desperate
battle ensued, in which clubs, chairs
and finally firearms were used. The
Wagners were knocked down fre
quently, but kept tip the fight. At
last the burglars drew their revolvers
and began firing. One of the Wagner
boys was wounded and ran up stairs
for a gun. As he did this he was
fired at again but missed, \oung
Wagner got the riHe and the burglars
ran out of the house, the Wagners fol
lowing to the veranda, where the
youngster fired at one of the burglars
who fell dead. Another one was
wounded,but the three made their es
cape, leaving their (lead comrade.
The interior of the house shows a
desperate struggle, there being scarce
ly a whole piece of furniture in it—
uad 11 builet holes mark the walls.
The dead burglar's face was photo
graphed and copies sent over the
country—one came to Edenburg, this
county, and was recognized by Laue
McCleary, Jr., a? his son Will, who
wan but 18 years of age, and left
home a week ago, Ooteiioibly to hunt
work. The father aud a friend start
ed to day for the corpse. The other
three burglars laid in the woods until
Wednesday evening, when one of
their number, Sam Shell, came to
Turkey City, where McCleary's par
ents live, and another, Tom Hugertv,
came to EdeuLurg for a rig to con
vey their wouuded comrade, who
proved to be Shell Wilson, to the
railroad station at Elk City. IJagerty
aud Wilson have been captured.
When Ilagerty retu.ned with a ve
hicle for Wilson be was suspected
and followed. He caine near to the
Wagner settlement, turned into the
woods near a ravine and then whist
led. The signal was answered and Lo
soon had Wilson in the buggy. They
were followed and llagartv was ar
rested when he returned the buggy to
Edenburg, and Wilson was taken
from the traio there also. lie was
suffering from a bail in his hip aud
evidently had abandoned the buggy
because he could not stand the jolt
ing.
AN EXPERIENCED CONVICT.
Sheli Wilson eor?cd one term In
the penitentiary from this county and
one from Hutler county for burglary.
Last tall he was under indictment at
Liverpool, 0., but escaped conviction
He is the "artist" of tbe gang which
is supposed to have committed the
burglary of John Sherry's house, near
Edenburg, of so,oou, and of Klias
Ritt'a house, at St Petersburg, in
which $1,200 was taken. Wilson
and Ilagerty both have respectable
parents living near Cnllensburg.
Sam Shell was released from jail two
months ajjo. The are
the terrors of their neighborhood aud
have been in tho meshes of the law
frequently, and mere frequently sus
pected of crimes that could not be
proven. Their latest exploit was the
recent disturbance of a religious meet
ing at Turkey City, and for which
offense Pittsburg detectives came to
arrest them but failed.
Wilson and Hagerty have been
taken to Forest county jail, and one
other man, yet uukuowu, but prob
ably a familiarly-known "crook," is
still ut large. Shell was captured
last night and tho other unknown
man proves to bo Scott McCleary,
and he was captured this morning.
He is a brother of the killed burglar.
