Two students were recently expelled -and' fonrteen indefinitely suspended from the state college of Pennsylvania for indulging in the pleasurable amuse ment of hazing.' This relic of barbarism will probably cease after freshmen who ' enter make of themselves first-class thumpers and, in self-defence, lay ont 'their tormentors. ' Sbcbetabt Moston has made the thrilling discovery that the packers con trol the price of meat to consumers and -the price of cattle from, farmers. He is late finding it out, but that he has found ifout'at all- is encouraging! Now will the astute 'secretary, more skilled in 'railroading than in agriculture, an nounce the discovery that railroad dis criminations built up and support the packing-house combine? (The Cul tivator. ThlBkerit. We have another evidence of the fact that thk'adminktration is thoroughly devoted to English ideas and to English ' interests instead of American interests . when the two come in conflict. Another blow is to be struck to silver as an inte gral part of our money. It is said that Secretary Carlisle has ordered that no more silver dollars be coined at all, and that the United States mint at New Orleans" be closed entirely and the employes indefinitely f urloughed without pay. It is given out from the -inner circles of the English syndicate which domi nates the Cleveland administration, that no more silver is to be coined by our present bosses unless congress ehall order it, and that the government mints at Philadelphia and San Francisco will coin gold only, unless a stop is put to this and other foolishnesses by the peo ple through their representatives at Washington. Thus goes on the contraction of the currency in the direct and palpable interest of bond syndicates and specula 'tive trafficers in the welfare of the gen eral public. People who think alike must -act together in the accomplishment of their purposes. - The men who are managing your affairs for the benefit of your enemies must be put ont of place and power, and it will have to be done through the , enlightenment of education; by the dic--tation-of the ballot; by invoking the law through the courts, or, these failing, at the point of the bayonet. -The English "nobility" didn't accom plish the downfall of this government during the late rebellion. Now, through the insidious power of money, they seem .to be having greater success in their nefarious schemes. The American people are patient to the verge of national disaster and ruin, but when fully aroused to the situation of affairs they go clear to the root of the evil that menaces them and make a finish of it What Thry Say. News from everywhere indicates that the republicans have carried the whole earth except Platte and Greeley counties in Nebraska. Columbus Telegram, dem. Secretary Morton, of Cleveland's cabi net, thinks that the election will teach delegates to the democratic national convention next year that the platform mast state political and economic doc trines unevasively, unequivocally and truthfully, with 'terseness and courage; that 'it' must 'declare or a currency de pending upon gold, for its ultimate redemption. The reelection of Judge Marshall is a matter of congratulation for all republicans.- He' has served as judge of this district for- a- number of years -and his decisions have been uniformly fair and impartial and in accord with the law and facta, Judge Marshall, by his fairness and honesty, has won the confidence and respect of fair-minded people of all par- ' tiea.-jFulierton News.

New York, Nov. 12: The commis aionerB of accounts who have been in vestigating transactions of 'the dock hoard for some time have taken up the investigation covered by the Lexow committee and brought forward testi mony which for the first time implicates Thomas Byrnes, the noted ex-superintendent of police, in the blackmailing scandals, The accusing witness was, Christian W. Schaeffer, an old man, Who testified that he kept gambling houses in this city since 1857 and had known Byrnes for a quarter of a cen tury. Shortly after the latter was ap pointed captain of the Fifteenth precinct about 1872 or 1873, Captain Byrnes sent for him. He begged Byrnes not 'to trouble him that night. .Byrnes replied that he was long in that precinct and that the witness had presumed greatly in running gambling houses there. .Byrnes consented to wait until the next day before taking any action! . The witness went to see Sydney Nichols, the police commissioner, and informed him of Byrnes' threat. Nichols saw Byrnes and told him that if he closed the witness' place he would have to close the other gaming places in his precinct. The witness' place was not disturbed. Afterwards he saw Byrnes again and said to him: "While we are making money .we are willing that others should." He made this proposi tion to Byrnes: That the latter should receive one-fourth share of the profits of the business which was keno. It was accepted. Thereafter witness regularly paid Byrnes personally' each --month a fourth share of the profits. The part nership continued for ten months, dur ing which time he paid not less than 2.000. THIRTY-SEVEN BODIES RECOVERED. Victims of the Kxploaloa la tko Joaraal Building at Detroit. Deteoit, Nov. 9. The dead body of James B. Thomas was taken from the wreckage of the Journal building. This is the 87th body recovered and accord ing to the list of the missing was the last body left in the wreck. Thompson, engineer of the building, has been arrested. Negligent care of the boilers was the cause of the accident. Official inspect ors and competent engineers examined portions of the wrecked boilers and pro nounced the cause as low water, caus ing a superheated condition of the flues, which was followed by the dangerous injection of cold water. Engineer Thompson's carelessness is strongly condemned. The engineer of The Free Press building states that he has warned Thompson against leaving his boilers without having any assistant to watch them. Some occupants of the building give similar testimony. Thompson in sists that he saw the boilers 10 minutes before the explosion and that they con tained plenty of water and 65 pounds pressure of steam. , Mayor Pingree scolds the fire depart ment for being slow in extinguishing the fire and for primitive methods in clearing out the ruins. He says the en tire Journal building must come down and criticises the owners regarding the construction of the wrecked portion. OTOE EVICTIONS HELD OP.

Xaw York, New Jenejr aad Marylaad Havt eea IVeet to Desaecraey Drake I lava's CeTeraer Maxwell Beaten h Merral ia Nebraska. The Republicans carried New. York state by 86,000 plurality; New Jersey by over 2,000; Maryland by 10,000, and have also captured ' Kentucky. Be sides swinging these states over into the Republican column, they increased their usual nuqorities in Massachusetts, Ohio, Iowa and all other states where elections were held. It is a Democratic Waterloo. Tammany elected her local .ticket by about 17,000. majority, and New York city went Democratic fox secretary of state by 20,000, but the Re publicans came down to the Harlem with over 86,000 votes to spare. Amos J. Gummings was elected tc songress in the Tenth New- York dis teict. Senator Gorman met his Waterloo, Lloyd Lowndes being elected governor of Maryland by a majority of 10,000. Pingree was re-elected mayor of De troit for fourth term. Bushnell (Rep.) captured Ohio by 100,000 majority. Ohio legislature - will stand about as follows: - Senate, 27 Republicans and 10 Democrats; house, 77 Republicans and 85 Democrats. David Martin is elected chief justice of Kansas, about 40.000. .PiUJS54aio valky, Oaafswiia-and New Mex - Nerval comes out away ahead for su preme judge in Nebraska, defeating Maxwell by a plurality of 7,189. Utah starts into statehood by electing a Republican ticket Wells for governor and Allen for congress. Virginia had a most apathetic cam-: paign and the election was very quiet, it going Democratic with but few anti Democratic legislators elected. ' Kentucky. elects Bradley, (Rep.) for governor by 8,000 to 12,000 majority,and lower branch of the legislature is Re publican by 5 or 6 votes. This means a Republican United States senator from the Blue Grass state. Massachusetts elected Greenhalge gov ernor by about 63,000 plurality, and the legislative department is solidly Repub lican. Illinois was carried by the Republi cans by pluralities of about 84,000. New Jersey was lost by the Demo crats, Candidate Griggs, having been elected governor by a surprisingly large plurality of about 26,000. Troable With His M etber-Ia-Law. San Francisco, Nov. 11. A local paper says that Lord Sholto Douglass, the son of the Marquis of Queenebury,' who married a variety actress a few months ago, is to be horsewhipped .by Mrs. Addis, .bis mother-in-law. Mrs. Addis has announced that she will start for Los Angeles this week for the pur pose of teaching her son-in-law some American manners. The disagreement is said to have resulted from the inter ference of Mrs. Addis in the manage ment of the Douglass household. Lord Sholto took exception to the action of his mother-in-law .and in a letter in formed her that when he married Mrs. Addis, he did not marry the whole family, and that he would be pleased if his mother-in-law would permit him to manage his own domestio affairs. Mrs. Addis says she will publicly horsewhip her son-in-law. Denver, Nov. 8. The election in this (Arapahoe) county was very hotly contested and wfll undoubtedly result in one orcnore legal fights. The only material opposition to the Republican ticket was a nonpartisan or "tax-payers" ticket, whose supporters charged the Republicans with extravagance and jobbery. The Republicans elected all their candidates except for assessor and treasurer. The ballot bases are now in the courtaouamtwaiting the official can vass, with nine watchers from each side on guard. Everything is quiet, but friends of each side say the case wfll be contested in court if the count is against them.

LARGEST CORN CROP ON RECORD. Meveatber Retaras te 4 he Departawat of Arrlcaltare Record the' Fact. ' Washington, Nov. 12. The Novem ber returns to the department of agri culture make the corn crop the largest in volume on record, with t'te rate of yield, however, somewhat less that in dicated by the returns, for October, being 26.2 bushels per acre. This must be regarded as preliminary .and not final estimate of the yield. The rates of yield of the principal corn states are as follows: New York, 86.6; Pennsylvania, 88.5; Ohio, 32.6; Michigan, &8; Indi ana, 82.8; Illinois, 87.4; Wisconsin, 81.8; Minnesota, 18.2; Iowa, 85.1; Missouri, 86; Kansas, 24.3; Nebraska, 16.1. In tfaie' Atlantic states, except those about middle latitude, the yield appears tobelargejandof high quality! In the Virginias and the Carolinas, some' coun ties of Pennsylvania and Maryland, the neater nart of tha immt lalrps unit rlia ico reports are conflicting owing to the different action of the universal drouth upon different soils. The whole Missouri basin reports a great falling eff from earlier estimates, the extreme dry weather has converted a fair promise into a comparative fail ure in Nebraska and . adjoining states, while considerable -damage is -ascribed to untimely frosts near the Rocky mountains and along the northern borders. There are many reports of chinch bugs and army worms, while the rotting of ears by soaking summer rains has made a large part of the- crop un merchantable in some interior states. The average yield of potatoes is 100.7 bushels per acre; tobacco, 743 pounds, and hay, 1.06 tons. The crop of apples is reported as 71.1 per cent of a full crop. lOMAHA RATE CASE TAKEN UP. Iatentate Cfemtaerce Cfeaunkefea Hearlaa Two (featplaiats. y . Washington, Nov. 9. The interstate commerce commission today heard argu ments in the cases brought by the Com mercial club of Omaha, Neb., charging the railroads centering in that city with discriminating against the place. The first of the complaints is directed against the roads crossing the railroad bndge to Council Bluffs, la., and charged that the rates between Omaha and points in Iowa are so excessive as to prejudice the interests of Omaha in favor of Council Bluffs. The other case involves rates principally on cattle between Omaha and southwestern points. It is charged that the rate schedules are so arranged as to operate in the interest of Chicago, St. Louis,' Kansas City, St. Joseph and other points to the prejudice of Omaha. Mr. McHugh appeared for the Omaha organization. Most of the railroads in volved were represented by special at torneys. Ex-Senator Manderson made an argument in defense of the Chicago and Burlington road, of which he is general solicitor. KANSAS TO EXHIBIT APPLES Omm aTaadred aad Fifty Rarrels to CMcaa Tacaiajr.
