The Receat Chill Refluée: Its Condition Several Points in the Of- cial Record, Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska the Only States Showing An Inorease. The Wheat Harvest 17 Per Cent Less Than Last Year—The ¥ vest Generally. Wastxaros, Septomber 10—Tho Sep- temberreturnsof the Department of Agri- ndicate a lower condition of corn igust, in every section of the country and in_nearly every state. The only gains in the West are in Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska in which a light improvement is indicated, Minnesota stands as in August; Arkansas makes gain of one poitn; Georyia and Alabama remain as in_August, and all the other cotton states show a heavy decline. . The figures are also much_reduced for each of the middle states and corn surplus states show changes as follows: Ohio, a redu tion from 89 to 82; Michigan, 68 to 6 Indiana, 95 to 80; lllinois, 86 to 8 lowa, 85 to 80. The inc in Missouri is 80 to 84; Kansas, 99 to 101; Nebraska,[84 to 87. The decline injNew York is 90 to 77, and Pennsylvania 99 to 89. The general average condition on the 1st of September was 84 per cent, a decrease of D per cent during the last month. The cause of this reducticn, so nearly universal, is drought, which is re- ported from nearly every state of the Atlantic coast, Gulf coast, and the Ohio valloy, and from the Mississippi to the crest of the divide between that river and the Missouri. Between the Ohio river and the lakes the distribution ef rain has been unequal, in a fow places in excess, while the deficiency is general. The crop is nearly everywhero late requiring one to two weeks longer to mature. Where Kansas and Missouri seed was planted in more northern terri- tory, the crop is still later, causing much apprehension as to ripening where plant- ing was later and early season too wet. The average temperature of the summer has been low, making full yield an im- possibility. Telegraphic communication with the state agents up to 3 o'clock this afternoon, shows that the recent frosts damaged corn north of the 40th parallel. The Ohio agent places the injurp at 2 per cent. The Indiana agent estimntes the loss at 10 to 20 per cent. in the north- ern belt, and b5 per cent. in the middle belt. The loss . is heavy in Wisconsin and Minnesota. There is also some injury in New York and Pennsylvania, while the damage can- not yet be clearly determined. It is cer- tain that frosts have already reduced the general average below 80 though much of the heavigst corn of the west is beyond gerious injury. Bimoondition f whiat wilbré harvist. as reported in the return averages 83, which indicatos a product of 17 per cent. less than the yield of last year, or loss of 8,600,000 bushels. The crop of oats will be large, the general average being 99, 3 The promise for potatoes is good, rep- resented by 95, three points higher than the reported average of September, 1882 The Damage by the Frost. Curcaco, September 11.—The Far- mers’ Review, from very extended ad- vices, will publish in to-morrow's issue, the following comment on the injury to corn crops: Recent frosts of greater or less severity have neen throughout Minunesota, Wisconsin, North- ern and nor hwestern lowa, northern 1llinois and Indiana, and the entire state of Michigan, causing serious injury to late corn. The extent of this injury is imposible at this _writing accurately to determine. In all the territory visited by the frosts some fields were 8o fully matured a8 to receive no damage. In many parts corn on high ground escaped injury, whilo that on low ground was severely cut. 1t will bo mafe, we think, to estimate the njury in the territory named at 25 per cont of the os- timated crops. It may exceed this esti- mate. Throughout the same territory where minor crops, such as tobacco, hops, tomatoes, and other tender garden vege- tables, as well as grapes, were groatly in- jured or utterly ruined. In Kansas, Nebraska, southern and western Iowa, southern Illinois and Indiana andall other portions of the corn-producing country no material injury is reported. The Collapso tn Corn. CH10AGO, September 11.—The boom which the corn market experienced yes- terday suffered a reaction to-day. The heavy speculation indulged in by outside customers in anticipation of a sharp rise in prices, has apparently resulted disas- trously for them, ~ The market displayed sigus of weakness from the opening and outside buying orders having fallen off, prices fell back verygenerally whero they stood Saturday. Oats were steadier as compared with corn, though they were shaded off slightly. Wheat also showed a decline under yesterday's quotations. The Harvest in Now England, Bosrox, September 11,—Crop roturns from Maine, New Hampshire and Ver- mont, shows a fair condition. The yield in Maine: V heat will yield 712,508 bush- els; oats, 761,713; barley, 203,377; buck. wheat, 300,000; rye, 30,000, In Vermont grain of all kind looks fine. The estimuted yield of the princi- pal crops is: Potatoes, 35,000,000 bush els 00; wheat, 312,000; corn, 2,056,000; barly, 173,600; buckwheat, 470,000, Th on has been favorable for the production of butter and cheese Wool will probably fall below tho aver- age. In New Hampshire the returns indi- catoa large yield of coreals and potatos The following is an estimate: Corn, 1, 326,126, oats, 1,072,641; barley, 77,287; wheat, 'l74.rsuu, rye, 35 i potatoes, 3,480,000, — The Bpikers' Progress to Portland Porrraxp, Ore., September 11,—Vil- lard’s party reached Portland during the night. All are enthusiastic over their trip, which has been full of interesting incidents, but free from any serious acci- dents. Portland is preparing to give her visitors & grand reception.

L — THE JAMES GANG, The Confesslon of a Dead Member Made Puablic for the First Time, Kaxsas Crry, September 11.—In consequence of the recent publication of Dick Liddill's statement regarding the | history of the Jumes gang, Police Com- missioner Craig of this city has given out the confession of Clarance Hite, made to officials at Jefferson and which is published to-d weo Hito, the youngest of the was captured in Kentucky shortly after Liddill's surren- der, being confronted by evidence of his | complicity in Winston and Blue Cut train rohberies.

The account of the movements of the gang during Hite's connection with it corresponds in all essentinl particulars with Liddill's gtory, and curm‘mrnwl in detail Li(ldll]" testimony at Gallatin, implicating Frank James in the Winston robbery. It also accounts for Frank's participation in the Blue Cut robbery, a8 told by Liddill, and for which James is yot to be tried. Charles Ford took part in the Blue Cut robbery and is ex- pected to testify, as also will Liddill when the case is to be heard. e — SPORTING NOTES. THE COWBOYS AND THE BILLIARDISTS. Catcaco, Septomber 11.—Several ru- mors are atloat here to-day, one of which found its way into print, regarding the billised players, Jacob Schaeter, the world's champion, Wm. Sexton and Thos.

Sunday was a day off and all wont to Agate station, on the Kansas Pacific road, and falling in with companions, opened the festivities with soveral drinks. Then they rode to a neighboring ranch, where they obtained a supply of liquor, and startedjiome, On the way two, named Rossited and Me- Koever, engaged in an angry dispute over a trivial matter and all repaired to the herders’ quarters to sottle the difficulty. As 800n as inside the men clinched and both fell to the ground, fighting desper- ately, their companions urging them on, Tables and benches were removed and in a ring improvised the men beat and tore each other with the ferocity of tigers. Onlookers, in their excitement, bawled, danced about, brandishing revolvers, en- couraging their favorite in the fight. It was a weird, blood curdling sight. While the orgie was at its highest an _ oil lamp was knocked from its place and the room was in durkngss. The madmen now ran upon each other, and in & minute after the light had been extinguished the melee was general. The door was locked and there being no means of ogress, it was each man for him- self. Amid the resounding blows and curses a pistol shot rang out and the death cry of the victim paralyzed what- ever of reason was lett in the party.
