R. Dodge, statistican of the department of agriculture, in an article entitled “Products and Prices of Wheat,” says: The official record of im- ports of wheat into_the United Kingdon of Great Britain for the first half of the present year shows a large increase In the propor- tion furnished by the United States—68 per cent agalnst 54 per cent In the first six months of 1886 and 1885. Counting flour as ‘wheat the proportion 13 78.5 per cent against 60.8 in the simllar perlod of 1886, and 60.6 in 1885, There fe a great reduction in the re- ceipts from Russia, a decrease from India of 20 por cent as compared with the irst half of last year, and a decrease from Australia. The ?uantlll(‘s of wheat imported from Jan- uary to June inclusive, with the value and average price expressod in measures of this country, are as follows: Valug Country. Bushels, Pper ne. Russla. . . 2,782,608 § 2847811 $1.02 German 1,113,620 110 United Ste 82,713,276 L07 Chil. . 1,063,011 .04 India 6,725,790 9 Other 660,170 8,720,848 1.02 Total. 48,063,484 $50,442,723 $1.05 The value of wheat from this country 1s 8 cents per bushel more than from India, and 5 cents more than Russlan wheat, It is higher than that of any non-European country, and yet the quantity furnished is twice as much as that su‘pphad by all other ocountries, wnw India is the principal competitor of the United States in the world’s market, her importance as a competitor is greatly over- rated. South America has greater possibili- ties as a competitor,though its area in wheat issmall as yet. The present indications point to more than an average in European crops this year, The Indian crop, harvested a few months ago will be 20,000,000 bushels less than the preceeding, say 538,000,000 bush- els. Australia will pnxfm probably 15,000, 000 bushels more than in 1883-86, or 87,000, bushels. The product of the world promises tobe quite as much as for each of the two preceding harvests. Not Much Ol ged After AIL ‘WASHINGTON, August 11.—[Special Tele- gram to the Beg.]—Now that the new eclvil service rules governing promotions in the de- partments have been applied to the war de- partment and the results have been made known, the question that is agitating clerical circles Is: “What is it all about?”’ * Those who have been examined were greatly worried until they had passed through the ordeal, but clerks In other de- partments now await their turn with some- what less apprehension, being reassured by the small percentage of those who were vn- able to pass the examination and fell by the wayside. Now that the smoke after the battle has disap and the results of the first ement can be ascertained, the clerks have looked into the matter closely and come to the conclusion that the new rules for pro- motion do not change the former system of making promotions, except that the Lead of the bureau, or rather the secretary of the de- men gnvsnled from promoting a clerk who has fatled toie o percentage of 75 in his a}-mlnn}on‘.m 'l ele‘rlm whg “er:ll are very few—only about one in eve n examined—the secre! has umonrflw same wer as formerly. Tobesure he1s compelled r:zet his list of eligibles from the civil ser- vice commission, butas the commissioners In their turn are compelled to include in the list all clerks who ined & percentage of 75 or over it would appear that the head of the department 1s allowed nearly the same lattitude of discretion in his selection a8 before the new rules were enforced. clerk who barely 18 just as eligible for promotion as oue who passed over ninety, nm&hen is nothing to prevent the head of his burean from recommanding him and the secreiary from approving the recommenda- tion, According to the new rules tha clerk who has failed is compelled to undergo an- other examinasion, and, in case of a second failure, *he may be reduced or dismissed,” by the secretary. 1t would appear from this, that dismissal Is not compulsory and clerks tand nearly as good a chance of promotion as formerly. Having secured the requisite percentage there is nothing to prevent the exorcise of favoritism or the recognition of efliciency just as was the case formerly. Pensions Granted.

Officers Andrew Crawford, of the patrol wagon, and Thomas J. Ormsby, the desk sergeant, stated jointly that the girl had behaved as though drunk and confessed to them thit .sho had taken morphine hypodmn\cull{. They telated then how deceased had fought with her white cell-mate, Maley, and Ormshy stated clearly that he saw Rose knock down Georgiana and leap from the bench with both feet vh)h-nllg planted in the faillen woman's breast. They jointly swore that they had no taunts to provoke the women to fight and that 1n separating them the entlest monsures were employed. Ormshy knew that Georgiana was alive a8 late as 4 o’clock in the morning, ns she was then standing at the bars crooning softly and in incoherent fashion, Her death was first discovered when the of- ficer attempted to arouse her to appear in_court. Drs. Ayers and Ginn, and the colored physician, Dr. Ricketts, who conducted the autopsy, testitied to the apparent print of boot heels on her breast, tho sev- eral bruises elsewhere on her body, and the congested appearance of her throat and ungs. They thought that no dissipation in whisky and drugs such as were ascribed to Georgiana could induce the undue quantity of serum found in the lung cav- ity, and gave it as their united opinion that the contusion resembling a_boot heel mark ubove cited was the direct cause of her death. Lee Harkman, Carl Schmidt and Ben Fischer, who were in the jail at the time of the fight 1n the cell, swore that they saw Officer Crawford slap her once with his open hand as he endeavored to re- strain_her. Harkman also testified that he saw Rose Maloy jump on Georgiana as Urmsby stated, used John "P. Norwood, a prisoner in another cell, averred that he heard an officer say to Rose Maley as Georgiana was locked up,’ “Bi, Rose, you've got to sleep with a nigger to-night,” a remark which pro- voked the quarrel. This witness also claimed to have seen Officer Crawford drag Georgiana from the cell, throw her violently against the stairs and pitch her headlong into another cell where she lay without making any fuarther noise. “‘Shakespeare’’ Friedling, the girl's white lover, told his oft repeated story of Georgiana's brutal treatment at ‘the hands of the police as he saw it, to the effect that the girl was dragged along the sidewalk to the patrol box, and was kicked by Ormsby as he transferred her from Rose Maley’s cell. He described his Saturday night fight with the girl as \hourh he had merely administered her a few love taps, and swore that she nover used morphine to his knowledge. A number of corrovorative witnesses for both sides followed with their knowledge of small details and the case was given to the jury. In less than a half hour the following verdict was found: *‘Deceased came to her death from the eftects of alcoholic stimulants and morphine and injuries received externally, inflicted by whom or what means the jury knows not.” Friedling and Rose” Maley who had beon held in custody during the deliber- ations of the jury were at once released. It is evident that the verdict leaves the cnse in about the same condition as be- fore. The fact stands, however, that the coroner has put himself to great effort and expense to reach the truth, The body of Goorgiana Clark was in- terred at Laurel Hill yesterday afternoon in the presence of a large number of her colored friends. THREE WOUNDS. A Ruffiian Stabs a Neighbor and Re- sista the Police, Ed Warner, who lives at No. 1121 South Tenth street, is in the habit of coming home drunk and abusing, with tongue and fists, his wife and six children.

The physician who was summoned to attend Spidel found three wounds— one on the chin, another in the right breast, and the third on the left side of the abdomen. The wounds are serious and Spidel’s life was further jeopardized by great loss of blood, but the surgeon in attendance announce that the injuries are not necessarily fatal.

I am of the opinion that the Mayflower is ten minutes fastor than the Galatea over a forty mile course in such weather as the last race was sailed. In light weather 1f the Galatea was canvassed to the extentshe can carry since the bad keel was put right, the difference might not be so much. I think the Amer 8 are_still ahead of us in the mattor of sails, and I am not sure If the material they use has not something to do with it. Thave had a look atthe new Volunteer and, as far as I can ipdzfl (forshe is not yet down to her load ine), she ought to bea very powerful and fast vessel, She s decper than the May- flower, and I think will bo faster, and will therefore zive the Thistle a good race.
