Statistics from all Parts of tha Country A ' Decreased Acreage, and Considerable Damage th. Gist of the Keports Tha Freseat Hard Winter. . Milwauksb, Feb. 8. S. W. Tallmadge Uln receipt of the following late information aa regards the area, condition and prospects of the winter wheat crop : Virginia Randolph Harrison, commissioner of agriculture, says : "I have official figures from all sections of the state and the acreage is short folly 30 per cent, from last Tear. As regards the condition since my last report to you I have advices from the southwestern portion of the state reporting the wheat as being almost destroyed winter killed. And from ad vices ana wnsi. x nave awn m un ' few days the prospect for wheat is worse tha it has been since 1866. Alternate freeling and thaws, with no snow to protect it, is the principal cause." Maryland The area sown to wheat is fully 25 per cent, short aa compared with last year. Hear, of no serious damage; the condition, however, is not flattering, owing to the haste in sowing, and the sou . not being lolly prepared to receive the seed. t - "s- r Missouri J. W. Sanborn, secretary of the State Board of Agriculture, Bays the area sown to wheat is 10 per cent, short of 1884. I hear of but little damage to the plant as yet. i Illinois The acreage sown to wheat is about 15 per cent, short of last year. Borne damage bat nothing serious was reported in the southern part of the state early. The ground is now covered with a snow, and will not be able to tell much about the conaitjpn oi we gram umu wo snow goes off. Tennessee A. J. McWhirter, commissioner of agriculture, says the crop of Tennessee is folly 20 per cent, less in acreage than last year, and the damage by freeze is all of 10 per cent. - Kansas Area sown to wheat in this state is short about 30 per cent, as compared with last year. Some of the largest wheat-growing counties in the state have reduced their wheat area irom 25 to 50 per cent., owing principally to the ruling low price of wheat daring the past season. Tha condition of the growing wheat is not up to the standard. Some sections report damage by insects in the fall, and owing to the severity of the winter many predict ininrv bv winter-killinjr : however it is too early to tell much about the latter. Kentucky C. E. Bower, commissioner of agriculture says the acreage sown to wheat in. this state is from 10 to 15 per cent less than that of the previous year. The winter has been very unfavorable ; alternate freezing and thaws have lifted the plant to the surface and it is in a badly crippled condition. North Carolina The area sown to wheat is very much less than last year and the condition is not very encouraging on account of the long continued drought of last fall. The winter has been unfavorable and much complaint of winter killing is heard. New York The area sown to wheat is somewhat less than last season. The condition is quite favorable. No damage by winter killing or other causes as heard of. West Virginia John H. Strider, statistical agent, under the date of February 4, ays: "The acreage of West Virginia is short fully 20 per cent, as compared with last year. The condition is very unpromising with the Worst weather, March winds, freezing and thawing yet to pass. The present outlook will not warrant a half crop." -' Georgia The extreme ' drought of the fall extended almost to December, and has caused a large falling off in the area sown to wheat. The condition is very unfavorable, owing to the unreasonable weather duringthe forepart of the winter. Minnesota H. H. Young, statistical agent of Minnesota, says in regard to the spring wheat seeding: "The area sown to wheat will probably be fully 10 per cent, short of last year, or not more than 2,500,-000 acres." Dakota James H. Bains, statistical agent of Dakota, says that not more than one-eighth of the crop in northern Dakota and three-eighths in southern Dakota remain in the farmers'hands, and the elevators are kept well cleaned out. If prices remain low, the area ot wheat will not be increased any this spring. " THI ATFXI gpBD VALMY. The Scans of Devastatloa About Stralts-Ttlls Superintendent Carr Among; the Strikers. Special to th Ohio State Journal. ' Nbw Stsaitsvillb, Feb. 7. The condition of this place now as compared to what it was prior to the strike, is almost incredible to those that are living in distant localities. Early last June could be seen eight extensive coal mines with a daily capacity of 200 ears of lump coal, giving a livelihood to a town of three thousand inhabitants, and business prosperity in the vicinity for miles around ; but today six out of the eight mines are burning fiercely, two of them hopeless, while it will be very expensive to get the remainder in working order, and impossible to make them in as good a condition as they were before. Two more are badly crippled. Of the once large hopper, only a few half-burned logs and a hole in the hill can be seen. It looks as if the last work was done there by our Father Noah and that the next work will be done by the descendants of Melchize-dek. Farther up the hill can be seen the ashes of the once fine house that was erected to accommodate the imported paupers, but before the distinguished gentlemen arrived the incendiary torch was applied. -The only mine that is now in working order is No. 3, on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. The Bristol tunnel must be reopened before that can be put in operation. George R. Carr, superintendent of the Hocking Valley railroad, was here today . for the purpose of seeing some of the miners. He said : "I have got word that an attack will be made on the bridges tonight for the purpose of destroying them, and I have taken this method to see if I can prevent the trouble. An extra force of guards wQl be put on the bridges, and if theattadk is made some one will be hart or killed, and I don't want to be instrumental in killing any one. ' It would not be any benefit to us to kill three or four miners. One life is worth all the bridges. I have had my information pretty straight, and I believe an attack was anticipated, and if I can prevent it in this way it is better than bloodshed." Of course the miners said they did not know anything about it, and that they would do all in their power to prevent any such thing. 5 OVEB THE LINE. Marderoas Bands of Mexicans Coming; Into Texas Several Severe rights. Galveston, Feb. 8. The News's San Antonio special says: The situation at Carrizo Springs is growing serious. The citizens are determined to resist the band of a hundred Mexicans when they arrive. A bloody battle is expected. Citizens of Sevalla and Mavorick counties are joining . their forces with Dnnmit county in combating the marauders and runners have been sent to Cotulla and other points for arms and ammunition. . It is ascertained the Mexicans that crossed the Rio Grande on the ' night of the-; 6th nam-- bored s " fall hundred, -r nd have .divided their forces ' into four bands, who are approaching : Carrizo through unfrequented portions of the country, driving away the herds by details as they advance into the interior. A spirited running fight occurred today between the scouts of the citizens, organization and a detail of the Mexicans.' Two marauders were killed and one American wounded. Sheriff Oglesby of Mavorick county has sent a mounted posse to the scene of ac tion. The frontier troops at uvaiae leu tonight for Carrizo. Another report from the front chronicles another bloody affray in which twelve Mexicans were killed and a number wounded. The American loss, if any, is not reported. These conflicts took place between ranchmen and relays of Mexicans, who were overtaken while driving stock toward the Rio Grande. The Mexicans are being reinforced, their objective points being Carrizo Springs, at which point it is believed they agreed to concentrate their forces, attack the town and release their compatriots confined for stealing cattle. Telegrams from many places along the Bio Grande call on the authorities for troops. sensational comucung reiraincuiiuiiuo to come from Carrizo Springs. All accounts agree that another sharp recon-noitering took place between the Mexicans and the sheriff's posse, in which three more raiders were killed and a division of the raiding band driven back across the Bio Grande. Another fight with thev marauders is expected before the border is cleared. The authorities of Dimmit county have been reinforced by men and arms from the adjoining counties. A heavy posse of ranchmen are scouring the country for other divisions of the raiding bands. NOTES FBOM SPRINGFIELD. ; A Runaway Accident Civil Rights Salt Killed byjta Cars.

Mr. Devwell says he asked for the pie politely and was twice refused by the attendants. The attendants say they have no animus in the matter, but have to take this course to orotect their customers. This morning while" S. Kemler and his son and daughter of Greene township was driving down Limestone street, his horse became frightened by the cars. He got out to hold the horse, but was thrown down and run over. The wheels ran across his chest and head. When picked up he was senseless; tie was carried into Dr. Myers's office. No bones broken.

When the train arrived at Yonk- ers Cleveland and Manning: were received at the depot by Mr. Tilden's private secretary, Mr. Smith.

When con fronted by the corpse she said: "We quarreled, and I borrowed a pistol of the hired man, Julius Ebel, and shot him and then the hired man and my son helped me bury him." The woman admits she is enciente by the hired man. All are in jail, and narrowly escaped being lynched. Anarchists in Cleveland. Cleveland, Feb. 8. F. K.

If ha has neglected his duties or violated law he can be complained against and the complaint will be investigated, but he will not be removed simply to. make a place lor some otner man wuo happens to be a Democrat." Cleveland's sentiments on this subject are not thoroughly enjoyed by Democrats, especially those who are on a wild, hunt for spoils in the way of offices for themselves or their mends. Personal. B.

A soldier on guard last night saw a man advancing and commanded him to halt and give the countersign. The stranger neither halted nor replied, and attempted to walk past the guard line. Tho sentinel thereupon plunged his bayonet into the man's body, killing hira almost instantly. ' me occur rence in London was exaggerated into a sensational report that the dynamiters had made an attack on the arsenal. An investigation shows the man attempting to ran the guard was also a soldier and a comrade of the sentinel, whom he had tried to annov bv a practical toke. The news from Gabat is that the rebels are actually preparing for another encounter. Loop-holes are making in the houses in Metemneh and the rebel videttes maintain an active lookout, fear ing a British, attack on the town.

Remarkable Bill Which a Young- Physician Tendered a Fair Patient's Father. A romantic little story reached the ears of a reporter for the Inter Ocean yesterday. It touches on sickness, pills, and love. A certain charming young Jady liying in one of the southern suburbs was taken seriously ill a few weeks ago. Her parents, who are quite wealthy, employed the best medical talent obtainable, but the worthy disciples of medicine who examined her pronounced her case to be incurable, and said that she was be yond human aid. The parents were in despair. By some accident the father heard of a young doctor who had but jrery recently located in the village, and wnose ust oi patients was not at ail large, but who had ever given satisfaction when called upon, lie was asked to see the sick girl. He called, looked at the patient steadily, then turned to the anxious parents and said, firmly and decisively : "l can save your daughter v "Do you think so ?" was the excited query. "inow so r was the positive answer. "Save my daughter and name your price for your services." exclaimed the loving father. "ihen l mast have entire charge ot the case,? said the young doctor. As the other doctors had given no en couragement whatever for her recovery the case was readily placed in the young physician's bands. He went -to work, patiently, earnestly ; took entire charge of his fair patient ; watched ever her day and night. In a week she began to improve ; two weeks found her out of danger ; in three weeks she could sit up, and at the end of four weeks 6he was well and could take long drives with her devoted doctor. lie had indeed redeemed his pledge had saved his charge. One dav. after the complete recovery of the .young lady was positively assured, the father called the young doctor into his library. Taking him by the hand, he said.; "Young man, you have saved my daughter. I told you that if vou did so you would be compensated at whatever price you chose to nx your services. 1 am now ready to carry out my part of the agreement, aa you have so nobly done your work." . Do you reaay wish to pay me my own price ?" asked the young doctor ,anxiously. "indeed l do, sir. "Then I ask you to give your daughter to me in marriage' was the unexpected request. The old gentleman was naturally a little astonished at the nature of the answer. Ha hesitated a moment, then touched a bell. A servant answered. 'Tell Hattie to step here," was the command. in a minute the daughter entered the room. The father and the young doctor stood facing one another. Hattie. said the old gentleman, do you feel that you have fully recovered?" "1 am as well as ever, father." "Do you imagine what your doctor wishes in compensation for his services in saving your life?" was the sternly-put question. -' ' -iso." said the girl anxiously, "but i am sure he deserves anything reasonable." "Uut I consider his charge extortion ate," was the emphatic rejoinder. "What is it. father? I feel sure that Dr.' would not be unreasonable." 'Not unreasonable ! Why, Hattie, he asks that I consent to his making you his wife ; what have yon to Bay to that ?" flattie blushed violently for a minute ; her little foot Dlaved with the rng on the floor, then looking up archly, first at her father and next to the young doctor, who had meantime uttered no word, she said : " I on say. father, when 1 was Bick all the other doctors gave me up and assured me nothing but death ?" "ies. my daughter. if And Doctor took my case under tiosjs;. Circumstances, told you he would save .me, and nursed me back to health and life?" "Yes." "Then, father, it strikes me that if I was an auditing committee and had to pass upon this bill, I'd argue that the one who brought me back to my health irom apparent death would be pretty safe for me to be intrusted to when health was fully regained.

She is usually very talkative and familiar, and when an idea strikes her she seems to hesitate a moment and squint her eyes slightly, as if compressing the thought into the briefest and choicest language. Some ladies call her 'queer." She is no more so than a middle- aged lady of a literary torn of mind ought to be to give her individuality. Writing of low house rents in Arabia, a Drench traveler mentions his taking s comfortable dwelling at Bereydah, consist ing of two large rooms on the ground floor and three smaller ones, besides a spacious court-yard surrounded by high walls, for all of which he paid bo cents per month. ARRESTED AT IXDIANAPOLI8. he Sequel to a Columbus Sensation, William Woods, an employe at the Union depot, was arrested Saturday night at Indianapolis at the instance of Eli D. Miner, conductor on the Pittsburg, Cincin nati and St. Louis railroad, for seduction, Miner's wife being the victim. Miner says that his wife left Columbus some days ago, saying she was going on a visit to her mother at Osceola, Io. About the same time Woods disappeared from the depot, where he acted as train caller for the Panhandle, and rumors of intimacy between the pair soon reached Miner's ears. He visited Osceola and found that his wife had not made the proposed visit to her mother. He has been engaged in searching for the missing pair lor several days. Late Friday evening he chanced to step into the x armers hotel, Indianapolis, where he saw a trunk which he recognized as be longing to his wife. Consulting the regis ter he found that his wife and Woods were registered as man and wife, and had been occupying the same room at the hotel for several days. Woods was ar rested and taken to the station-house, but refused to be interviewed, though he did not deny the intimacy. He wall be brought to Columbus today if he consents to come without a requisition. Miner s wite is said to be well con nected here, and Woods has relatives living at Knightstown, Ind., where his wife now is. Miner declares that he will not live with his unfaithful sDouse. who has disappeared, but her husband believes sue is sun in maianapons. CAM) TO THE PUBLIC, In Reply to an Unwarranted and Malicious Attack oy the Sewer Organ. One week ago the Sunday Capital made a malicious attack on Rev. W. J. Shuey and others connected with the People'i Mutual Benefit association at Westerville, the characters of all of whom are above reproach. The following card to the pub lic is issued by those who are associated with Mr. obuey: Having read in the Columbus. O.. Sun day Tribune and Capital of Sunday. Feb ruary 1, 18S5, an article purporting to come from one whom the editor styles ''disgruntled skv-pilot" (bv which phrase it is supposed he means a member, and possibly a minister, of the United Breth ren church), reflecting severely on United Brethren ministers in central Ohio, and upon Rev. W. J. Shuey, publishing agent ot the united .Brethren printing estab lishment in particular, the undersigned members of the board of trustees of said printing establishment, deem it a matter of simple justice to make the following statement to the public : We have been intimatelv acauainted. both personally and officially, with Mr. Shuey tor more than a quarter oi a century, and hereby declare that he is widely known throughout our church, and esoeciallv so in Davton and the Miami valley, and is everywhere regarded as a man ot personal piety and integrity, and thoroughly honest, capable and faithful as a public servant in charge of large nnanciai ana otner interests. He was elected .to his position by the General conference of the United Brethren church in 1S65, and four successive times since that date, with increasing majorities. Meantime, under his administration, the printing establishment, from being heavily in debt, has paid all its liabilities, bought realty and otherwise greatly enlarged its facilities for usefulness, distributed large sums for, benevolent purposes, and more than tripled its aggregate value. Neither of the five different boards of trustees which have served during Mr. Shuey's incumbency, from different sections of the church in the United States, has ever known him to be capable of other than straightforward, honest and trustworthy service in the responsible work to which he has devoted the longest period and the best energies of his life. . We. therefore, unqualifiedly denounce the statements of the Sunday Capital in regard to Mr. Shuey as being false in general and in every particular, and malicious and slanderous to the last degree, , L. DAVIS, William McKke, . ' D. L. Rikk, G. Fritz, Resident Trustees. Dayton, O., Feb. 6, 1885. - . Having for many years served as a trus tee of the U. B. Publishing House, I fully concur in the above testimonial. James ArrLEGATE. A Climax to a Sensation. Last night at 12;05 the patrol wagon started on its sixth run. This time it was nuts" to all concerned. The call was from the corner of Third and Long streets. There have been slurs and mean insinua tions cast on Patrolman Trogus, but he has been biding his time, and last night swept down like a wolf on the fold. S. B. Johnson, who keeps a saloon at 51 East Long street, was the hrst one pulled, lie was found in bed in a one-story frame on Elm alley. He seemed to be a heavy sleeper, but was finally induced to put on his raiment and take a midnight ride at the city's expense. He offered no resistance, but an ugly looking bowie-knife and a double-action Smith and Wes son revolver were found in bis belong ings. The police then hastened around to the saloon on Long street and rushed in. The saloon was crowded with colored and white men and girls. Two women were screaming in the rear part of the saloon that a "man had gone up stairs." The "man" had skipped by the light of a kerosene lamps through an open window. The saloon was cleared and the two women were taken to the wagon. They fought and yelled, but to no purpose. It required the strength of four men to hold the two women in the wagon. They made sweet music as the wagon sped down to the prison. Everybody in the vicinity was attracted to the street, and what must have added to the excitement was a shot Bred near the river short time before. ; The trio registered as S. B. Johnson, Mrs. S. B. Johnson and Lillie Cassidy. The women are sisters and the elder is the man's wife. Johnson, it is Btated, is not exact in his domestic relations, and his wife has sued for divorce. The. charge against Johnson is keeping a disorderly house and that against the women is being inmates of the establishment, j High Street Railroad Crossing;. "Northender" writes regarding one of the most ingenious plans yet proposed for the relief of the railroad crossing on High street. He has a plan that will not break the long view along the street and cost the property owners little or nothing, He would get the railroads to move their freight yards to the western and eastern limits, and especially those of the Penn sylvania Company to their large Bhops, and then have the breaking and shifting of the heavy express trains done at the east end of the Union depot. It requires some space fully to describe the plan, and the author of it should present it to the board ot trade committee. Bound and Gagged. Officer Boyle yesterday morning took George Stevens to the city prison for safe keeping. The officer found him on La fayette alley with his hands bound behind him, blindfolded and gagged. Stevens says that he had been in this condition since Thursday, and that on that night as he was going home five men jumped on him and bound him. He further says that these men took him to the Hams- burg bridge and had kept hira there since Thursday night. Officer Boyle says that the man is subject. to epileptic fits, but does not know how he got in the position in wnicn ne was iouna. The Hocking Valley. As a result of the rumored distribution of arms to the miners of the Hocki val ley, reports of an attack on the guard at Nelsonville, Murray , City, Buchtel and points below, before midnight Saturday, produced considerable uneasiness in this citv yesterday. Fears were entertained of a preconcerted plan to destroy the property in exposed positions, but there being no further disturbance during the day, the impression gains ground that the nature of the attack has been exaggerated, and that nothing more has been done than to waste gunpowder, and that to no purpose. An Old Claim. Mrs. Mary E. Hefjher of Findlay, whose father was once the owner of a large tract of land lying north of State street, has been in the city the past week on business concerning the property. It seems that she still has or thinks she has some claim on part of the property. A compromise has been effected with all parties concerned except Messrs. H. T. Chittenden and Hayden, against whom she has brought Buit. Her property has become very valuable and therefore the suit involves a large sum of money. . - ' "A Valuable Sulphur Well. In sinking a well for the use of his paper-mill on West Main street, Mr. Yeat-man Anderson struck water at a depth of 100 feet, and now has an artesian well flowing a . two-inch stream of perfectly pure water. Unluckily it is so impregnated with sulphur as to be useless for manufacturing purposes, but the people in the neighborhood carry it off in jugs and buckets for medicinal purposes. A Seventh Street Bow. Mamie Chambers and McClellan Hans-borough (colored) engaged in a row at Eipp's saloon on the corner of Lard alley and Seventh last night, and the Chambers woman was pretty badly bruised up, having a bad gash cut in the back of her head. She was taken to the city prison. Hansborough escaped for the time being, but was soon after caught by Office; 8 Bur-caw and Collier and landed at the city prison. Both were rather drunk. The Polo Club. The Columbus Polo club left yesteiday afternoon via the Pittsburg, Chicago and St Louis railroad to play the return games at Louisville, and will return by way of Indianapolis, where they have an engagement. These wiH be the first games the Columbus boys play outside the city, and they hope to make a record. James Hagerty went along to witness the amusement ' THAT "MASS MEETING" Held Under a Hat to Consider the Myers Reorganization Bill. ' There was considerable putting together of heads among the local Democrats yesterday, which culminated in the afternoon in a meeting in one of the committee rooms at the State-house, which was attended by a very small number of local politicians. Among them were Allen O. Myers, George B. Okey, T. J. Dundon, E. Clay Briggs, Peter Baker, William Trevitt, Barney Bergin, Con. Lyons, A. B. Coit, Fred. Krumm, Barrister Evans, ex-Chief Heinmiller, Auditor of State Kiesewetter and others. The purpose of .the meeting was to consider the bill recently introduced by Mr. Myers and now in the hands of the House judiciary committee to redistrict the city of Columbus and to reorganise the city de- Eartmenta. The meeting was said to be armonious, the enthusiasts going so far as to claim that some Republicans were present, and were loud in their commendations of the bill, but this is in keeping with their methods. None were there. The fact is that the author met Major Donaldson just after the meeting, and that gentleman . expressed , himself as in favor of putting the taxing power altogether in the hands of the council, and abolishing the school board. He, thought the schools ought to be curtailed a little, any way. At tne meeting there was considerable informal talk, most of it being car ried on by the author of the bill, and those present were unanimous in their support of .it. The general opinion seemed to be that the city departments the police, fire department, street cleaning, etc., should all be provided for first and the schools should be given what was left. If they didn't want that they couldn't have any. There was no formal action taken, however, as W. J. Elliott had written over seven columns of solid minion the night before and was too tired to get up in time for the meeting. Moreover, he had the only copy of the bill at the disposal of the "mass" meeting. The problem will be considered again when enough citiEens attend to make two min ute speeches all the way around take up at least half an hour. It will be observed that it is ih no wise a citizens' movement, but it is pressed by a clique of office hunters who want more pluces made and do not care for taxes. The fact that meetings are held clandestinely to set up the pins to put the bill through shows that it will not bear the light of full and free consideration. No Democrats are in favor of the bill, ex cept a few, except those holding or want- ing iu iiuiu uuiue. .At is a luing wiiicu Democratic citizens generally condemn. The meeting on Sunday to urge its passage win certainly not commend it to any one as in the public interest. THE CIItCTJIT COURT. The Legislation Now All Completed for It, and tho Judges to Meet Here Tomorrow to Arrange for Business. f The twenty-one judges-elect of the Circuit court will meet here tomorrow to organ- ) for their work. The bill conferring jurisdiction on this court is now a law, and everything is in readiness for the new court to proceed. The House had another big row over the Circuit court bill last Saturday, but after all the bluster it was found that it was already a statute and regularly made such. All the work and bluster of Saturday was unnecessary, but it shows that iu all the net-work of red tape and legal forms of law-making, it is easy to become confused. The bill passed the House, went to the senate and was amended there bv substi tuting a new bill. The House refused to concur in the Senate substitute. The Sen ate insisted and asked for a committee of conference. The conference committee recommended that the House concur in the Senate substitute with certain amend ments. Mr. Jones of Jackson demanded a division of the question and a separate vote upon one of the amendments, recommended by the conference com mittee, which " amendment was to strike out certain words in the Senate substitute. The House refused to strike oat those words, hence they remained in the Senate substitute, whieh substitute was agreed to with the other amendments recommended by the conference committee. The Senate in the meantime, improperly, as is claimed, acted upon the conference committee's report in advance oi tne action oi the House, and by agree ing to the report entire, struck out of 'their own substitute the words which the 'House had refused to strike out. When informed by message of the action of the House the Senate receded from its action in striking -out the words, thus leaving them a part of the substitute, which thereby became the law by the concurrent action of both houses. Death of Jacob Fislier. Jacob Fisher, who was born in this county July 2, 1808, died at his residence in this city yesterday morning at 4:20 o'clock. Mr. Fisher was but 4 years of age when Columbus was located, and has been an eye-witness of the growth of the city, from a settlement in which pale faces were lew and Indians predominated, to the present time, and maintained an active interest in its.affairs to the last.

Statistics from all Parts of tha Country A ' Decreased Acreage, and Considerable Damage th. Gist of the Keports Tha Freseat Hard Winter. . Milwauksb, Feb. 8. S. W. Tallmadge Uln receipt of the following late information aa regards the area, condition and prospects of the winter wheat crop : Virginia Randolph Harrison, commissioner of agriculture, says : "I have official figures from all sections of the state and the acreage is short folly 30 per cent, from last Tear. As regards the condition since my last report to you I have advices from the southwestern portion of the state reporting the wheat as being almost destroyed winter killed. And from ad vices ana wnsi. x nave awn m un ' few days the prospect for wheat is worse tha it has been since 1866. Alternate freeling and thaws, with no snow to protect it, is the principal cause." Maryland The area sown to wheat is fully 25 per cent, short aa compared with last year. Hear, of no serious damage; the condition, however, is not flattering, owing to the haste in sowing, and the sou . not being lolly prepared to receive the seed. t - "s- r Missouri J. W. Sanborn, secretary of the State Board of Agriculture, Bays the area sown to wheat is 10 per cent, short of 1884. I hear of but little damage to the plant as yet. i Illinois The acreage sown to wheat is about 15 per cent, short of last year. Borne damage bat nothing serious was reported in the southern part of the state early. The ground is now covered with a snow, and will not be able to tell much about the conaitjpn oi we gram umu wo snow goes off. Tennessee A. J. McWhirter, commissioner of agriculture, says the crop of Tennessee is folly 20 per cent, less in acreage than last year, and the damage by freeze is all of 10 per cent. - Kansas Area sown to wheat in this state is short about 30 per cent, as compared with last year. Some of the largest wheat-growing counties in the state have reduced their wheat area irom 25 to 50 per cent., owing principally to the ruling low price of wheat daring the past season. Tha condition of the growing wheat is not up to the standard. Some sections report damage by insects in the fall, and owing to the severity of the winter many predict ininrv bv winter-killinjr : however it is too early to tell much about the latter. Kentucky C. E. Bower, commissioner of agriculture says the acreage sown to wheat in. this state is from 10 to 15 per cent less than that of the previous year. The winter has been very unfavorable ; alternate freezing and thaws have lifted the plant to the surface and it is in a badly crippled condition. North Carolina The area sown to wheat is very much less than last year and the condition is not very encouraging on account of the long continued drought of last fall. The winter has been unfavorable and much complaint of winter killing is heard. New York The area sown to wheat is somewhat less than last season. The condition is quite favorable. No damage by winter killing or other causes as heard of. West Virginia John H. Strider, statistical agent, under the date of February 4, ays: "The acreage of West Virginia is short fully 20 per cent, as compared with last year. The condition is very unpromising with the Worst weather, March winds, freezing and thawing yet to pass. The present outlook will not warrant a half crop." -' Georgia The extreme ' drought of the fall extended almost to December, and has caused a large falling off in the area sown to wheat. The condition is very unfavorable, owing to the unreasonable weather duringthe forepart of the winter. Minnesota H. H. Young, statistical agent of Minnesota, says in regard to the spring wheat seeding: "The area sown to wheat will probably be fully 10 per cent, short of last year, or not more than 2,500,-000 acres." Dakota James H. Bains, statistical agent of Dakota, says that not more than one-eighth of the crop in northern Dakota and three-eighths in southern Dakota remain in the farmers'hands, and the elevators are kept well cleaned out. If prices remain low, the area ot wheat will not be increased any this spring. " THI ATFXI gpBD VALMY. The Scans of Devastatloa About Stralts-Ttlls Superintendent Carr Among; the Strikers. Special to th Ohio State Journal. ' Nbw Stsaitsvillb, Feb. 7. The condition of this place now as compared to what it was prior to the strike, is almost incredible to those that are living in distant localities. Early last June could be seen eight extensive coal mines with a daily capacity of 200 ears of lump coal, giving a livelihood to a town of three thousand inhabitants, and business prosperity in the vicinity for miles around ; but today six out of the eight mines are burning fiercely, two of them hopeless, while it will be very expensive to get the remainder in working order, and impossible to make them in as good a condition as they were before. Two more are badly crippled. Of the once large hopper, only a few half-burned logs and a hole in the hill can be seen. It looks as if the last work was done there by our Father Noah and that the next work will be done by the descendants of Melchize-dek. Farther up the hill can be seen the ashes of the once fine house that was erected to accommodate the imported paupers, but before the distinguished gentlemen arrived the incendiary torch was applied. -The only mine that is now in working order is No. 3, on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. The Bristol tunnel must be reopened before that can be put in operation. George R. Carr, superintendent of the Hocking Valley railroad, was here today . for the purpose of seeing some of the miners. He said : "I have got word that an attack will be made on the bridges tonight for the purpose of destroying them, and I have taken this method to see if I can prevent the trouble. An extra force of guards wQl be put on the bridges, and if theattadk is made some one will be hart or killed, and I don't want to be instrumental in killing any one. ' It would not be any benefit to us to kill three or four miners. One life is worth all the bridges. I have had my information pretty straight, and I believe an attack was anticipated, and if I can prevent it in this way it is better than bloodshed." Of course the miners said they did not know anything about it, and that they would do all in their power to prevent any such thing. 5 OVEB THE LINE. Marderoas Bands of Mexicans Coming; Into Texas Several Severe rights. Galveston, Feb. 8. The News's San Antonio special says: The situation at Carrizo Springs is growing serious. The citizens are determined to resist the band of a hundred Mexicans when they arrive. A bloody battle is expected. Citizens of Sevalla and Mavorick counties are joining . their forces with Dnnmit county in combating the marauders and runners have been sent to Cotulla and other points for arms and ammunition. . It is ascertained the Mexicans that crossed the Rio Grande on the ' night of the-; 6th nam-- bored s " fall hundred, -r nd have .divided their forces ' into four bands, who are approaching : Carrizo through unfrequented portions of the country, driving away the herds by details as they advance into the interior. A spirited running fight occurred today between the scouts of the citizens, organization and a detail of the Mexicans.' Two marauders were killed and one American wounded. Sheriff Oglesby of Mavorick county has sent a mounted posse to the scene of ac tion. The frontier troops at uvaiae leu tonight for Carrizo. Another report from the front chronicles another bloody affray in which twelve Mexicans were killed and a number wounded. The American loss, if any, is not reported. These conflicts took place between ranchmen and relays of Mexicans, who were overtaken while driving stock toward the Rio Grande.

If ha has neglected his duties or violated law he can be complained against and the complaint will be investigated, but he will not be removed simply to. make a place lor some otner man wuo happens to be a Democrat."

A soldier on guard last night saw a man advancing and commanded him to halt and give the countersign. The stranger neither halted nor replied, and attempted to walk past the guard line. Tho sentinel thereupon plunged his bayonet into the man's body, killing hira almost instantly. ' me occur rence in London was exaggerated into a sensational report that the dynamiters had made an attack on the arsenal. An investigation shows the man attempting to ran the guard was also a soldier and a comrade of the sentinel, whom he had tried to annov bv a practical toke. The news from Gabat is that the rebels are actually preparing for another encounter. Loop-holes are making in the houses in Metemneh and the rebel videttes maintain an active lookout, fear ing a British, attack on the town.

The railroad committee of the Indian apolis board of trade was not called upon during the entire past year to exercise its influence in settlement of differences between the shippers of that city and the railroads. This speaks well for the com panies. Superintendent Ewan, of the Indian apolis division of the Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and Indianapolis railroad, has moved his headquarters to Union City daring the present rush of business, in order to be with the train dispatcher, who is located at that point. Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and Indianapolis freight men on the Indian apolis and St. Louis divisions seem unable to dispose ot the business awaiting them, Uver 700 cars were in on yard at one time Saturday for Eastern and Western points, and a number of their lecomotives are unfit for the work assigned them, The meeting of the Bee Line stock holders March 17, is looked forward to with interest, as it is rumored an enort will be made to secure two or three more Vanderbilt men places on the board of di rectors.

Nearly 150 clerks have been discharged from the service of the trunk line pool commission, and this, with the granting of a vacation to Commissioner Fink after rejecting his resignation on Friday last, would indicate that the pool system is to be abandoned.

Remarkable Bill Which a Young- Physician Tendered a Fair Patient's Father. A romantic little story reached the ears of a reporter for the Inter Ocean yesterday. It touches on sickness, pills, and love. A certain charming young Jady liying in one of the southern suburbs was taken seriously ill a few weeks ago. Her parents, who are quite wealthy, employed the best medical talent obtainable, but the worthy disciples of medicine who examined her pronounced her case to be incurable, and said that she was be yond human aid. The parents were in despair. By some accident the father heard of a young doctor who had but jrery recently located in the village, and wnose ust oi patients was not at ail large, but who had ever given satisfaction when called upon, lie was asked to see the sick girl. He called, looked at the patient steadily, then turned to the anxious parents and said, firmly and decisively : "l can save your daughter v "Do you think so ?" was the excited query. "inow so r was the positive answer. "Save my daughter and name your price for your services." exclaimed the loving father. "ihen l mast have entire charge ot the case,? said the young doctor. As the other doctors had given no en couragement whatever for her recovery the case was readily placed in the young physician's bands. He went -to work, patiently, earnestly ; took entire charge of his fair patient ; watched ever her day and night. In a week she began to improve ; two weeks found her out of danger ; in three weeks she could sit up, and at the end of four weeks 6he was well and could take long drives with her devoted doctor. lie had indeed redeemed his pledge had saved his charge. One dav. after the complete recovery of the .young lady was positively assured, the father called the young doctor into his library. Taking him by the hand, he said.; "Young man, you have saved my daughter. I told you that if vou did so you would be compensated at whatever price you chose to nx your services. 1 am now ready to carry out my part of the agreement, aa you have so nobly done your work." . Do you reaay wish to pay me my own price ?" asked the young doctor ,anxiously. "indeed l do, sir. "Then I ask you to give your daughter to me in marriage' was the unexpected request. The old gentleman was naturally a little astonished at the nature of the answer. Ha hesitated a moment, then touched a bell. A servant answered. 'Tell Hattie to step here," was the command. in a minute the daughter entered the room. The father and the young doctor stood facing one another. Hattie. said the old gentleman, do you feel that you have fully recovered?" "1 am as well as ever, father." "Do you imagine what your doctor wishes in compensation for his services in saving your life?" was the sternly-put question. -' ' -iso." said the girl anxiously, "but i am sure he deserves anything reasonable." "Uut I consider his charge extortion ate," was the emphatic rejoinder. "What is it. father? I feel sure that Dr.' would not be unreasonable." 'Not unreasonable ! Why, Hattie, he asks that I consent to his making you his wife ; what have yon to Bay to that ?" flattie blushed violently for a minute ; her little foot Dlaved with the rng on the floor, then looking up archly, first at her father and next to the young doctor, who had meantime uttered no word, she said : " I on say. father, when 1 was Bick all the other doctors gave me up and assured me nothing but death ?" "ies. my daughter. if And Doctor took my case under tiosjs;. Circumstances, told you he would save .me, and nursed me back to health and life?" "Yes." "Then, father, it strikes me that if I was an auditing committee and had to pass upon this bill, I'd argue that the one who brought me back to my health irom apparent death would be pretty safe for me to be intrusted to when health was fully regained. I would check his bill O. K.. and say nothing about extortionate charges. The wedding will be duly celebrated in a very short time. . Gail Hamilton. Lewis tows Journal. In person. Miss Dodge is quite tall, with a very good figure, but not a very pretty face, in repose she has rather a frigid look ; but when in conversation her face lights up with an intelligent smile that is pleasing and inviting. She is usually very talkative and familiar, and when an idea strikes her she seems to hesitate a moment and squint her eyes slightly, as if compressing the thought into the briefest and choicest language. Some ladies call her 'queer." She is no more so than a middle- aged lady of a literary torn of mind ought to be to give her individuality.

ARRESTED AT IXDIANAPOLI8. he Sequel to a Columbus Sensation, William Woods, an employe at the Union depot, was arrested Saturday night at Indianapolis at the instance of Eli D. Miner, conductor on the Pittsburg, Cincin nati and St. Louis railroad, for seduction, Miner's wife being the victim. Miner says that his wife left Columbus some days ago, saying she was going on a visit to her mother at Osceola, Io. About the same time Woods disappeared from the depot, where he acted as train caller for the Panhandle, and rumors of intimacy between the pair soon reached Miner's ears. He visited Osceola and found that his wife had not made the proposed visit to her mother. He has been engaged in searching for the missing pair lor several days. Late Friday evening he chanced to step into the x armers hotel, Indianapolis, where he saw a trunk which he recognized as be longing to his wife. Consulting the regis ter he found that his wife and Woods were registered as man and wife, and had been occupying the same room at the hotel for several days. Woods was ar rested and taken to the station-house, but refused to be interviewed, though he did not deny the intimacy. He wall be brought to Columbus today if he consents to come without a requisition. Miner s wite is said to be well con nected here, and Woods has relatives living at Knightstown, Ind., where his wife now is. Miner declares that he will not live with his unfaithful sDouse. who has disappeared, but her husband believes sue is sun in maianapons. CAM) TO THE PUBLIC, In Reply to an Unwarranted and Malicious Attack oy the Sewer Organ. One week ago the Sunday Capital made a malicious attack on Rev. W. J. Shuey and others connected with the People'i Mutual Benefit association at Westerville, the characters of all of whom are above reproach. The following card to the pub lic is issued by those who are associated with Mr. obuey: Having read in the Columbus. O.. Sun day Tribune and Capital of Sunday. Feb ruary 1, 18S5, an article purporting to come from one whom the editor styles ''disgruntled skv-pilot" (bv which phrase it is supposed he means a member, and possibly a minister, of the United Breth ren church), reflecting severely on United Brethren ministers in central Ohio, and upon Rev. W. J. Shuey, publishing agent ot the united .Brethren printing estab lishment in particular, the undersigned members of the board of trustees of said printing establishment, deem it a matter of simple justice to make the following statement to the public : We have been intimatelv acauainted. both personally and officially, with Mr. Shuey tor more than a quarter oi a century, and hereby declare that he is widely known throughout our church, and esoeciallv so in Davton and the Miami valley, and is everywhere regarded as a man ot personal piety and integrity, and thoroughly honest, capable and faithful as a public servant in charge of large nnanciai ana otner interests. He was elected .to his position by the General conference of the United Brethren church in 1S65, and four successive times since that date, with increasing majorities. Meantime, under his administration, the printing establishment, from being heavily in debt, has paid all its liabilities, bought realty and otherwise greatly enlarged its facilities for usefulness, distributed large sums for, benevolent purposes, and more than tripled its aggregate value. Neither of the five different boards of trustees which have served during Mr. Shuey's incumbency, from different sections of the church in the United States, has ever known him to be capable of other than straightforward, honest and trustworthy service in the responsible work to which he has devoted the longest period and the best energies of his life. . We. therefore, unqualifiedly denounce the statements of the Sunday Capital in regard to Mr. Shuey as being false in general and in every particular, and malicious and slanderous to the last degree, , L. DAVIS, William McKke, . ' D. L. Rikk, G. Fritz, Resident Trustees. Dayton, O., Feb. 6, 1885. - . Having for many years served as a trus tee of the U. B.

This time it was nuts" to all concerned. The call was from the corner of Third and Long streets. There have been slurs and mean insinua tions cast on Patrolman Trogus, but he has been biding his time, and last night swept down like a wolf on the fold. S. B. Johnson, who keeps a saloon at 51 East Long street, was the hrst one pulled, lie was found in bed in a one-story frame on Elm alley. He seemed to be a heavy sleeper, but was finally induced to put on his raiment and take a midnight ride at the city's expense. He offered no resistance, but an ugly looking bowie-knife and a double-action Smith and Wes son revolver were found in bis belong ings. The police then hastened around to the saloon on Long street and rushed in. The saloon was crowded with colored and white men and girls. Two women were screaming in the rear part of the saloon that a "man had gone up stairs." The "man" had skipped by the light of a kerosene lamps through an open window. The saloon was cleared and the two women were taken to the wagon. They fought and yelled, but to no purpose. It required the strength of four men to hold the two women in the wagon. They made sweet music as the wagon sped down to the prison. Everybody in the vicinity was attracted to the street, and what must have added to the excitement was a shot Bred near the river short time before. ; The trio registered as S. B. Johnson, Mrs. S. B. Johnson and Lillie Cassidy. The women are sisters and the elder is the man's wife. Johnson, it is Btated, is not exact in his domestic relations, and his wife has sued for divorce. The. charge against Johnson is keeping a disorderly house and that against the women is being inmates of the establishment, j High Street Railroad Crossing;. "Northender" writes regarding one of the most ingenious plans yet proposed for the relief of the railroad crossing on High street. He has a plan that will not break the long view along the street and cost the property owners little or nothing, He would get the railroads to move their freight yards to the western and eastern limits, and especially those of the Penn sylvania Company to their large Bhops, and then have the breaking and shifting of the heavy express trains done at the east end of the Union depot. It requires some space fully to describe the plan, and the author of it should present it to the board ot trade committee. Bound and Gagged. Officer Boyle yesterday morning took George Stevens to the city prison for safe keeping. The officer found him on La fayette alley with his hands bound behind him, blindfolded and gagged. Stevens says that he had been in this condition since Thursday, and that on that night as he was going home five men jumped on him and bound him. He further says that these men took him to the Hams- burg bridge and had kept hira there since Thursday night. Officer Boyle says that the man is subject. to epileptic fits, but does not know how he got in the position in wnicn ne was iouna. The Hocking Valley. As a result of the rumored distribution of arms to the miners of the Hocki val ley, reports of an attack on the guard at Nelsonville, Murray , City, Buchtel and points below, before midnight Saturday, produced considerable uneasiness in this citv yesterday. Fears were entertained of a preconcerted plan to destroy the property in exposed positions, but there being no further disturbance during the day, the impression gains ground that the nature of the attack has been exaggerated, and that nothing more has been done than to waste gunpowder, and that to no purpose. An Old Claim. Mrs. Mary E. Hefjher of Findlay, whose father was once the owner of a large tract of land lying north of State street, has been in the city the past week on business concerning the property. It seems that she still has or thinks she has some claim on part of the property. A compromise has been effected with all parties concerned except Messrs. H. T. Chittenden and Hayden, against whom she has brought Buit. Her property has become very valuable and therefore the suit involves a large sum of money. . - ' "A Valuable Sulphur Well. In sinking a well for the use of his paper-mill on West Main street, Mr. Yeat-man Anderson struck water at a depth of 100 feet, and now has an artesian well flowing a . two-inch stream of perfectly pure water. Unluckily it is so impregnated with sulphur as to be useless for manufacturing purposes, but the people in the neighborhood carry it off in jugs and buckets for medicinal purposes. A Seventh Street Bow. Mamie Chambers and McClellan Hans-borough (colored) engaged in a row at Eipp's saloon on the corner of Lard alley and Seventh last night, and the Chambers woman was pretty badly bruised up, having a bad gash cut in the back of her head. She was taken to the city prison. Hansborough escaped for the time being, but was soon after caught by Office; 8 Bur-caw and Collier and landed at the city prison. Both were rather drunk.

The Columbus Polo club left yesteiday afternoon via the Pittsburg, Chicago and St Louis railroad to play the return games at Louisville, and will return by way of Indianapolis, where they have an engagement. These wiH be the first games the Columbus boys play outside the city, and they hope to make a record. James Hagerty went along to witness the amusement ' THAT "MASS MEETING" Held Under a Hat to Consider the Myers Reorganization Bill. ' There was considerable putting together of heads among the local Democrats yesterday, which culminated in the afternoon in a meeting in one of the committee rooms at the State-house, which was attended by a very small number of local politicians. Among them were Allen O. Myers, George B. Okey, T. J. Dundon, E. Clay Briggs, Peter Baker, William Trevitt, Barney Bergin, Con. Lyons, A. B. Coit, Fred. Krumm, Barrister Evans, ex-Chief Heinmiller, Auditor of State Kiesewetter and others. The purpose of .the meeting was to consider the bill recently introduced by Mr. Myers and now in the hands of the House judiciary committee to redistrict the city of Columbus and to reorganise the city de- Eartmenta. The meeting was said to be armonious, the enthusiasts going so far as to claim that some Republicans were present, and were loud in their commendations of the bill, but this is in keeping with their methods. None were there. The fact is that the author met Major Donaldson just after the meeting, and that gentleman . expressed , himself as in favor of putting the taxing power altogether in the hands of the council, and abolishing the school board. He, thought the schools ought to be curtailed a little, any way. At tne meeting there was considerable informal talk, most of it being car ried on by the author of the bill, and those present were unanimous in their support of .it. The general opinion seemed to be that the city departments the police, fire department, street cleaning, etc., should all be provided for first and the schools should be given what was left. If they didn't want that they couldn't have any. There was no formal action taken, however, as W. J. Elliott had written over seven columns of solid minion the night before and was too tired to get up in time for the meeting. Moreover, he had the only copy of the bill at the disposal of the "mass" meeting. The problem will be considered again when enough citiEens attend to make two min ute speeches all the way around take up at least half an hour. It will be observed that it is ih no wise a citizens' movement, but it is pressed by a clique of office hunters who want more pluces made and do not care for taxes. The fact that meetings are held clandestinely to set up the pins to put the bill through shows that it will not bear the light of full and free consideration. No Democrats are in favor of the bill, ex cept a few, except those holding or want- ing iu iiuiu uuiue. .At is a luing wiiicu Democratic citizens generally condemn. The meeting on Sunday to urge its passage win certainly not commend it to any one as in the public interest. THE CIItCTJIT COURT. The Legislation Now All Completed for It, and tho Judges to Meet Here Tomorrow to Arrange for Business. f The twenty-one judges-elect of the Circuit court will meet here tomorrow to organ- ) for their work. The bill conferring jurisdiction on this court is now a law, and everything is in readiness for the new court to proceed. The House had another big row over the Circuit court bill last Saturday, but after all the bluster it was found that it was already a statute and regularly made such. All the work and bluster of Saturday was unnecessary, but it shows that iu all the net-work of red tape and legal forms of law-making, it is easy to become confused. The bill passed the House, went to the senate and was amended there bv substi tuting a new bill. The House refused to concur in the Senate substitute. The Sen ate insisted and asked for a committee of conference. The conference committee recommended that the House concur in the Senate substitute with certain amend ments. Mr. Jones of Jackson demanded a division of the question and a separate vote upon one of the amendments, recommended by the conference com mittee, which " amendment was to strike out certain words in the Senate substitute. The House refused to strike oat those words, hence they remained in the Senate substitute, whieh substitute was agreed to with the other amendments recommended by the conference committee. The Senate in the meantime, improperly, as is claimed, acted upon the conference committee's report in advance oi tne action oi the House, and by agree ing to the report entire, struck out of 'their own substitute the words which the 'House had refused to strike out. When informed by message of the action of the House the Senate receded from its action in striking -out the words, thus leaving them a part of the substitute, which thereby became the law by the concurrent action of both houses.
