Willlams, of Harper county, Kansae, in which Willlams asked Tarnbull to tolegraph bhim a description of 0. C.Beverage, and the amount of re- ward coffered for hls capture. Beverage fs the man from Wahoo, who received $1,000, about ten days ago, from the Cummerclal Natlonal bank of this clty, on a personal check, cla'ming that he had money in the bank at Wahoo, but when the check went there for collection the bank people hers soon learned that they had been literally robbea out of §1,000.

Only last week Frank Noonan, who for the past two years,juntil quite recently, had held the position of clerk in J. McVittie's grocery store at 1101 Faraam street, went one block fur- ther up town and opened an intelligence cffize, or rather an employment agenoy. Cus- tomera commenced to pile in on the young man thick and fast, and it appoears now that a glitering thought of “do them up In fine shape” workad its way into his wicked braln, Every mad who madeap- plication for work was promptly employed put It was nccessary that he should go awsy ont into Idaho forit. On recelpt of §3 cash down feom each man he was glven a card ot ldentification and told to coms back Taesday, when there would ba enough of them to make up a carload and the employer woald have trausporta- tion for the whole lot. At least thirty suckers caught on and bit the bait. Yesterdsy morning they began to congregate av the office, but it was locked. The crowd hung out until noon, but still no one put in an appearance to give them the expected transportation, Then they tumbled to the sltuat on, and such searching through the high- ways and byways of Omuha as was wade for that sgent wes never made be- fore for any man, Bat he could not be found. It was ascertained that Noonan closed up his business about 12 o'clock Monday night, and early yesterday morn- ing slid over to Councll Bluffs, From there it is no telling whero he went to. e —A very severe communication was sent in to the city council lsst evening by Charles Wexman and othars, violently criticising Offi- cors Henche and Buckner for their actions at the Wexman wedding festivities about ten days ago, whon it became necessary to arrest, three or four parties, Officir Henche declares that he had nothing more to do with the affair than to arrest & man by the name of Flannigan, who it was claimed raised the disturbancs, and whoso arrost was demonded by the other parties, Ho thinke that the charge against him is made by mistake. —————— Got Away with the Bank’s Fund, New York, June 2,—Between 11 and 12 o'clock to-night J, P, Baldwin, cashier of the Manhatten company, visited the offices of the newspapers and gave to eacha copy of a statement sent by his bank to the clesrance house this afternoon, The statement was signed by P, C.

Oa March 1, 1885, wheat left in the farmers’ hands was estimated at 160,000 000 bushels, and the visible supply in the United States was 43,000,500 bushels or an aggregate of 212,000,000 bushels, Since that date the ex ports have been 22,000,000 bushels in wheat alone, not including the wheat in flour and home comsumption, KFor the three months intervening, based on the recognized average, that 18 8,000,000 bushels daily the export has been 78,600,000 bushels, loaving 116,400,000 bushels on hand on Juoe 1, 18 Or subtracting the visible supply of 41,000, 000 bushels, this leaves 75,000,00) bushels in the farmers’ hands, ‘The probsble consump: tion to August 1, 1885, will bo 48,80),000 boshels, end estimaling the exports st 1 500,- 000 bushels weekly, or 12,000,00) bushels for the entire period, it will leave £5,6(0,000 bush- cls to bu carried over into the new crop year, 1f the crop for 1885 proves no larger than is at present estimated this surplus, added to the probable 850,000,000 bushels yield, will give o total of 385,600,000 bushels as the stock in hand for the coming year, against an aver- age oi 464,000,000 bushels for the pnst five years, The average bome consumption is 292,000,000 bushels yearly, based oo the cen- sus population of 1880, which would allow 93,000,000 buskels for export, or as the surplus to meet the possibilities of another shert crop, “Thia is a smaller amount than the United States have been accustomed to export in the shape of wheat and {lour yearly during the past fifteen years, snd the eignificance of the thortago in the growing crop can be appre- ciated and understood, Itis alsoto be re- meabered that present estimates of the prob- able yield are based upon good weather for epring wheat until it matures. If any dam- sge should result to that crop in the mean- time the situation would be considered a little short of alarming. ““The full crop statistics presented in the current issue of the Farmers’ Review are be- lieved to ba the most complete and eignificant which have been given to the public in many years. It is useles to longer deny that th lrpmcblng winter wheat harvest will close a greatshortags in the total yield, e A Rapist Lynched.
