Increased ncroaiw. la the eastern and cen

The ncroa.ir < . of wheat was larger
than usual. The yield , with few exceptions ,
Is nouriy up to ihu avoriiKO and thuquallty IM
excellent. This is nlso trim of rye , llnx and

and His doubtful If vnoiijili potatoes will lie
mlscil to supply the eoiiEumptloa. It is doubt
ful if much griiin is shipped out , the general
expression of opinion bolni ? to ship in stock
from less fuvoivil eoniinuiitticsuiid to dispose

A ) : : reporter called last ovciitni-at Kllov's

street and saw Mrs. Kilov with reference to
the disappearance of dor husband. She
stated tlmt she could not Imagine what was
the matter. When lu-r husliainl wontawav
bo told hot- that
a letter would reach him at -
No. ( H Clark street , but she had written
there several times
ami ivceiveil no answer
It was learned that HI ley w.ii tieeoiiniaaiud
on his trip by John Kinds , who resides nt
llllll South Fifteenth street. Wnen Uilwr
failed to return on Thursday , as lie iii-
tended , Mrs. Kiley called mi'Mrs. . EtinLi
to learn if Ktmls hud returned linnc. :
Mra. tennis hnd received a letter from her
husband stating that they had arrived in Chi-
( ago nnd we.ro stopping at111 West Aliidison
street.
Airs. Ulloy nt once wrote to the latter ad.
dress , and also sent several telegrams tln-iv ,
but all fulled to elicit an answer. His mud
andsoveral telegrams that had been wi-ived
for him were all forwiuik-d toChir.igo.
Mrs Ulloy stated that sinthoucht herhi't-
band's business was all right , as bo always
seemed .satislled with it , hut never talki-liif
it. When hofalli * ! to return she si-id baelc
therontrnct for the pavilion , and it hail been
rolet to the next lowest bidder. Jler
brother stated that ho knew tlmt.
111 ley was not on A drank , as ho
was a mini who could n t drink. I to was
troubled with catarrh anil dv.spep n , and his
stomach was in such eondlt ion t hat whenever
hedrauka gla s of beer he would be confined
to his bed fora wbiilo d.iy. Tor thin nusnn
he eonlil not fiot drunk If be wanted to. Uil.-y
had about 15 in bis pneket , und out
of this ho bought a round-trip ticket. . . _
to Chicago. Byrnes saw the ticket. ,
Ulloy went home togeta change of innler-
clothiiig in a small valise just before slur. ,
inn , 'and told IJjrnes to have Kosen berry
il uro on tlio pavilion plans for the mill work.
Byrnes did so and forwarded the Did
to Cliie.njo. Itiloy had been intnulli , ) ;
to go to Cliicapo , before ho heard of
his .sister's death , us ho thoiiKliL
IIP could do bettor on the iron work for the v \
pavillion than bu could here , lluwus sick all JL
day the Sunday hcforo lie loft and was hardly
able to bn out. on Mninlnr
Mrs. lilloy ir of the impression that ho must
bo sick if there is any tiling at all the matter ,
but she thinks that bho will hear from him
very shortly anil looks forhiin lioinoovcry nay.
Hhusnj's it isbls nature to Jcoap overvthln
to himself , and would not write until he got
ready. She is hoBinniin : to get uneasy , however -
over , and will leave for Chic'ipo in a few days
unless sonic word Is received from him.
Jt is not believed that ho was financially
embarrassed , an he had drawn no inoromoney
on the Yatcs Job than was necessary to pay
the workmen.
It Is regarded by Hiley's friends as very
str.uiffothat no vrrd is revolved own if lie
is sick , and they tire at a loss to account for
his continued absence ] mid silence , and an at-
mosphoi'o of mystery SIIITOUIILS tlio wliolo
