A MOKRMO PRODIGA He Wastes 818,000 on & Week's De- bauch in New York, New Yong, Sept Special Tele, toTne Bep A ¢ man from the grent west came to grief again through ‘New York rum. This time it was asonof a distin- guished Mormon family who paid dearly for his experience. Seventeen thousand four hund dollars is a good deal of money to pay for a wook's pleasura, but this is what Alonso K. Hyde, of Salt Lake City, claims to have gone through since he arrived here a week ago Yesterday afternoon a policeman saw a well dressed man, about forty-five years of age, wildly in- toxicated, and almost throwing mouey awa in Pickett's hotel. He locked him up, after taking a trifle over $600 out of his pockets. When the man recovered somewhat he de scribed himself as Alonso K. | a cloth- ing merchant of Salt Lake, He said he be- belonged to a celebrated Mormon family of that name, and stopping with "his wife at Smith & McNell's hotel in Green wich strect, He had boon drinking heav) and the moncy found in his possession was the remains of $13,000 which he brought with him a woeck Before he was ar- raigned in police court to-day u dispatch was ed from Superintendent Murray . ask- ng that he be he'd until the 1 of Mrs. Hyde, Later Mrs. Hyde arrived at court aud was much affected on discovering her husband in sue't a position, Justice Murra gave the man s wood advice and allowed him to go a with his wife.

Weather prophets are not only prog- nosticating anothor severe winter, but all the signs point o an advance, and mayhap a scarcity in the coal market, Now, it scems, is the golien opportunity. The market is full of ¢ and all dealers are more than fairly well supplied. How long this condi- tion of things will continue there is no tell- ing, and it is ble that before the severe weather of winter sets in there will be an- other advance on the prices, The price now is, hard coal, $1025 to $10.50, retail, delivered, and soft coal, Western 7 and [linois 6 cents, just about the same as 1t was last this time, although the price to dealers is fifty conts ‘more per ton than it was last year. This additional levy has been made by the operators and jobbers at both the castern and western supply points on account of an increase in the freight rate: A e inthe price in the local market may be looked for at any moment, owi probable inadequate transportation fa ; I"rom this on to the opening of winter all the roads ave busy hauling grain, which pays better and the voads are not apt to put themselves much out of the way to accommodate the coal dealers. From Octo- ber on until spring it is always a dificult matter to get coal through, and alr tice hus been sent out from Chi an imminent advan of fifty or the present pric are to goup 50 cents on aton. The main shippiniz centers of the east are also report- g a shortage of stock already, and what this portends the people can conclude for themselves. The city of Omaha consumes a vast quan- tity of coal, both anthracite and bituminous, but dealers claim that it would be t to impossible to cstimate the quantity neces- sary to run the city through a severe winter. The difficulty lies in the task of figuring out the consumption front the shipments. The hard coal in this market comes principally from Buffalo, Scranton, Wilkesbarre and Lackawanna, and the soft coal from Towa, Iilinois, Kunsas, Colorado and Wpyo- ming. The western soft coal is said t0o be far superior to that of the the Ohio, Hocking Valley, Susquehanna or other eastern coals. The Kansas coul is inferior to other western coals. Itis a fine steam, but poor domestic coal, but that of Rock Springs, Canyon Valley, Boulder and Deer Creek has no superior anywhere, They are all preferable to the castern coal for either cleanliness or free burning. In this city the hard coal is used exeu- sively for heating purposes, and the soft for cooking and other domestic pursuits. Some few castern families here use hard coal ex- clusively. On the Ist of October there will be anadvance in price at all the soft coal mines, and as a natural consequence the fig- ures will goup here, and while the Union ic, the Northwestern, Rock Island and B. & M. railways say they will have an abundance of carsall through the winter months, the dealers doubt 1t. Experience has been a lesson to them, and they sce no reason for such a desirable change of accom- modations for the present season. the republicans will n states W ORDINANCES.

It was granted, and he began a tirade against the nominee because he had not been a soldicr, claiming that the conven- tion had no right to nominate anyone except him, as he (Brewster) was the only old sol- dier in the race.

Boston Herald: Although the new emperor of Germany is young, mental as well as in years, his énorgy and pucity for hard work are marvellous, and but for his supply of self-sufliciency might in time overcome even his men- tal narrowness and really make of him almost as great a man as he imagines himself. He is constantly giving proofs of a marvellous indifference to fatigue. Thursday morning at daybreak he was deer stalking at Potsdam. Then came a hard day's work on state papers. Then, without sleep, he started with a suit of officials for military meneuvers at Drombrowska, away off in Posen where he arrived in the morning at 5 o'clock. Ho held a reception of digni- taries at that hour, rode off to the ma- neuve and never left his horse till 9: then back to Drombrowska, gave a breakfast to twenty in his saloon car- riage, and then stavted back to Pots- dam and worked at state business until late at night, That is the sortof thing he is doing all the time, and which cli- cits the admirations even of those who must appreciate the danger of having his hotheaded self for a ruler, with only Bismarck to curb him, —_——— Your Money st over the CHICAGO TERN Ry. to any point wely low rates, NO MATTER ¥ what class ticket you get.

From “Fifty Years Ago™: The devay of the great agricultural interest isa calamity which has heen coming upon us slowly, though with a continually ac- erated movement. This is the son, 1 suppose, why the country re- ards it with so strange an apathy. Tt the landlords are’ rap- ing rain the farm- all their capital, and that ily turned out of work 0 1y to the great towns the very existence of the country towns is threatened; the investments which depend on rent and estates are threatened; colleges and charities are losing their endow ments; worst of all, the rustic, the bac bone and support of the country, who has always supplied all our armics with all our soldiers, is fastd ppearing from the land. I confess that, if some- thing does not happen to stay the ruin of agriculture in th islands, I think the cmd of their g tness will not be far off. Perhaps I think and speak asa fool; but it seoms to me that a cheap loaf is dearly bought if, among other blessings, it deprives the countryside of its village fol and healthy, and the empire of wt soldiers.

Thurman concluded by saying that knew well that the late war was the abolition of slaver, said that if the union could be pro- served without frecing the slaves it would be preserved that way. The speaker knew that Line 1said 80, and he also knew that in the brain of the radical leaders it was thought that by emancipating the slave and wiving bim this suffrage the south might bo made a solid, radical south. In a word, he sald that party interests governed political action. After'a cordial handshake the dele- gation departed. Mills In Indiana. Ricnyoxn, Ind, .—Hon. Roger Q.
