But there are signs «f substantial improvement in the most im­ portant branches of iudustry. The mone­ tary situation remains undisturbed. Re­ sorts from interior points are generally favorable. Collections are nowhere seriously disturbing. The half-yearly return of failures shews a relatively larger increase in New Eng­ land than in any other fection-- about is par cent., and next iu the trans-Mississippi region, this aide or the Rcckv Mountains, about ssu p.r cent.

WautoiKg, *• T., a 1 r y for Devactatiag Flames. Tax Mocks of the best portion of El- lensburg, W. T., are in ashes, and nearly one hundred families are homeless. The fiameB started on the north side of the oity, with a very strong wind blowing from the northeast. The hie department could do nothing to stop the rapid advance of the conflagration, which within an hour spread to the business center. Help was telegraphed for from the neighboring towns, but long befoie it conld reach the scene the tiames had literally wiped oat the heart of the city and had commenced to spread among the residences on the South Side, it was not until the maiu por­ tion of the food for the tird had been con­ sumed that there were any signs of abate-? ment. It is estimated that the loss will ran up to many hundreds of thousands of dollars. All of the business blocks on Pine and Pearl and Third, Fourth, and fifth streets are cousumed, excepting only the First National Bank building, llloomer & O'Connor's dry-goods house, H. Gotzien's boot and shoe store, one sa- j loon, and one general store. Over one hmidred families are homeless, penniless, sad with nothing leit save the few scant clothes with which they escaped from tto advancing flames.

The fire depart* ment turned out and fought the flames | heroically, but their ettorts for several hours produced little effect, r.nd it was several hours before the fire was quenched. Eight business blocks, which includes all of the principal business portion of the city, were burned, together with three churches and several fine resi­ dences. The best estimates obtainable place the loss at $300,000, but it may reach a higher figure. All the business portion of Hailey, AlturaB County, Idaho, was destroyed,by fire, except the Frieden Block, and that is » fire-proof house. There is left bat one hotel, two livery stables, one lumber­ yard, and one dry-goods store. The fire did not reach the residence portion of the town, and so no suffering exists. The loss is $500,000, with light in s'i ranee.. The-owners will rebuild without delay.

From Minnesota reports show that the crops are improved, but more rain is needed in the Red River Valley country.

Thrashing is in progress in Tennessee, and the damc^c to wheat from excessive rains has been overestimated Reports from the tobacco regions of Kentucky, Tennessee and North Carolina show that the crop is doing well. Favorable rains occurred over the cotton region. In Alabama, Northern Louisiana, Arkansas and South Carolina thecot- ton crop is improved by seasonable weather and well distributed rains. In Mississippi the crop was not injuriously a&'tv.-ted. Iu oouthfirn Louisiana Uie rice and sugar crop3 are un­ proved by abundant raina, but a week's dry weather would still further improve the crops. In the Middle Atlantic States, New linglund and Ohio some injury resulted from continuous rains aud the absence of sunshine, although the crop proRjiects continue gooi*. in thete sections.

Over one hundred persons were injured, most of them being Lu.t iu the bade, caused by falling timbers. Great indig­ nation is expressed at Contractor Aubrey for the unsafe construction of the stand. He is considered largely responsible for the disaster, as he was warned by his workmen that the stand was not securely braced. He paid no attention to the warnings, and told the men to mind their own business. The Falk, Jung A Borchert ^Brewing Company's plant, looated on South Pierce street, between Twenty-fourth and Twen­ ty-fifth avenues, Milwaukee, has been totally destroyed by fire. Not a building, of tho fere at plant was spared, and the total loss is between $700,000 and $800,- 000. The insurauce is about half. The disastrous blaze originated in the malt house, probably from an explosion of dust. At a citizens' meeting at Detroit, Mich., a committee of fifteen was chosen, with Mayor Pridgeon as Chairman, to attend the annual encampment of the' Grand Army of the Republic at Milwaukee for the purpose of securing neit year's en­ campment for Detroit.

A St. Paul dispatch gives the following resume of the crop situation made since the recent rains, and from reports of more than 500 correspondents: In general terms the crops are in much better condition in Minnosota than in either of the two Dakotss, and notwithstanding tfce general drought there are still large tracts throughout the wheat areas where there is protr ise efj an excellent yield. Along the main lines of the Manitoba in Minnesota, westward almost to Tintah and Barnesvillo, there is a vast area including nearly a dozen of the chief wheat growing counties of the State, within which the grain for the most part looks well, and in some sections never gave finer promise at this stage of growth. It has a strong and healthy appearance, is of good stand and is heading out finely. A good cropfis looked for in this section. Otter Tail county promises an average crop. Along the Manitoba & Sioux Falls line from Wilmar to Marshall the wheat also appears for the mott part to be in good shape for several miles on both sides of the line. In the lower Red River val­ ley the crop is poor and thin without a doubt, and it is too late for it to receive much improvement. A large area around Grand Forks, including Grand Forks county and a part of Trail, and extending as far west as Larimore, has a very promising look. Near Kelso and Burton, in Trail county, there are fields that wrli yield eighteen to twenty-two bushels to the acre, according to present prospects. In Walsh and Pembina counties, along the | river, the prospect is about the same as at I Grand Forks.

Tbe same picture was also iden­ tified as that of a man who had been seen around the rooms at 117 Clark street when the flat at that number was occupied by the furniture afterward found in the Carl­ son cottage. Kunze had been in trouble before he became acquainted with Cough- lin, and the detective protected him and made him a ready tool in his murderous schemes. There was considerable surprise ex­ pressed over the failu e of the grand jury to include the name of Alexander Sullivan in the list of indictments, but despite the most earnest efforts the jurors were una­ ble to secure any evidence of a nature that would justify the return of a t ue bill. What was • heard was damning in implication, and some of the jurors were anxious to base an indictment on it. State's Attorney Longenecker claimed not to feel disconcerted over the escape of Sullivan. There was time to take up his case yet. he Faidt At tbe same time he admitted that it would hardly be possible to show that the lawver was a party to tbe conspiracy unleas there should come a "squeal." Having returned the indictments the grand jury was discharged after receiving the thanks of the court for their patient and earnest inquiry. The term of the jury expired by limitation, and much work was left undone, enoush. indeed, to keep the next grand iury busy for itn full term. The men will be called to trial some time during the July term and it is not likely that there will be any postponement unless the police fail to get Burke back from Manitoba. There is a possibility of the prisoner making such a fi<rht as will secure several months' delay in his extradition, but Chief Hubbard feels certain that he will eventually h«V^ the man back. • •-* In the rrieantim? search is being made high and low for Cooney, but so far the "Fox" has not even allowed the police to get a clew as to his whereabouts.

New York, July 1.--Dr. John Mc- Ineray, one of the four men who are al­ leged to have been doomed to death by the inner circle of the Clan-na-G'ael, is missing. His friends claim that he was killed before Cronin was. Shortly before he was last! seen in the middle of April, he received at the Catholic Protector a telegram from Omaha offering him a good position if he would come there immediately to take it. It is assumed that he started for Omaha in .time to have arrive 1 m Chicago en route on April 21. Hia fr ends in New York have written to Omaha to inquire about the telegram and the alleged position awaiting him, and have received replies that after diligeut inquiry no one could be fouiM who was interested in Mclnerny's going to Omaha, nor had he been seen there. John Devoy, who was Mclnerny's associate in the Irish Nation, believes Mclnerny was lured to bis death by the telegram. All agree tn ie there is just as good ground for believing that Mclnerny was assassinated as for the assertion that Cronin was slain by the in­ ner circlo of the Clan n i-Gnel, which had doomed Cronin, Mclnerny, Devoy and Dr. j McC'ahey, of Philadelphia, to death. There is evidence to show that traps were laid for McCahey, just like those that at first fai'ed with Cronin. Devoy has been ojenly threatened, rnd men have watched -his movements, not knowing that their. I jECvsmints r.vre also watched. I Since Mclnerny disappeared from this city on April 6 a lettfer t as awaited him at his address here in wh:ch a young mar* j ried woman teems to hint at an intrigue wit'i the missing man His friends here believe that he was m rdered in the Carl­ son cottage before C.-011 in, aud t at the arrangements made for th > disposal of the letter's body, but interrupted, were ; carried out in Mclnerny's case, i Dr. M'.

Mclnernv was the go-between for : the triangle com Warren, and in a portion of Kittson coun ty. a very good crop will be harvested. In Northern Dakota, west of Larimore and in the Devils Lake region, the yield will be very small, although the prospects have been somewhat imj roved by the late rains. In - the Turtle mountain region, however, the crop is in good shape. Of the North Dakota crop outside of these areas it is to be said that it is generally poor, but is spotted by areas of greater or less extent which will turn out a good yield. The wheat on the Missouri 6loDe is in better shape than in other sections, though it was injured by the hot weather a week ago. In southern Dakota the crop is in very poor plight, only a small area north of Aberdeen, in Marshall and Brown counties and portions of Day and Clark counties, giving promise of anything like a fair crop. Practically, the whole State of South Dakota had succumbed to the drou b t, and although there is prospect that the grain will be of good quality it will probably not average over half a crop. Beturning to Minnesota, the north­ er counties, north of the region along the Manitoba main line already described, will fare poorly, th'ough rain will probably help tbem but a good deal. The grain has an old, stunted look, and tbe hot winds have stripped off all the green leaves, burn ilia; itp the plants, root and stallc. Wheat and oat fields head out at four to six inches high. It is in central nnd southern Minnesota that the wheat crop seems to be at its best. In half a do en counties of the southeast­ ern portion it is in r oor ootid i tion, but with this exception, the outlook is very good, especially in southeastern Minnesota, the Minnesota river valley and in m^st of the counties co'» posing the southern tier. Even in this section the crop is peculiarly spotted, adjoining townships and even ad­ joining fields, displaying very diverse re­ sults. On the whole, however, the yield in soother nMinnesota wJli lie good,' far a bo vie the average for that part of the State, if the conditions continue favorable. Filmore and Freeborn counties senit in excellent re­ ports. Oats may be a little short, but all other crops in southern Minnesota are do­ ing well. Corn and flax have been lack- ward, but are catching up, and vegetables are in a flourishing condition. Southern Minnesota wi'l, therefore;* taking all kinds, turn out as large and as fine a crop in the. aggregate as has been harvested there for years. Northern Iowa advices are, to the effect that it is too dry for small grain, but corn is doing well. Beports from over the Ne­ braska division of the Omaha railroad represent the corn crop as in excellent shape, and all others as doing well. Va . Eastern Division ; J." C.

[SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.) • The pennant race between the teams of the National League becomes more in­ teresting as the half-mile post in the run is neared. Boston has met with a sore set-back upon the present Western trip, while New York and Chicago have begun to picK up ana play the ball of which they are capable. New York is iti hard luck with Kee'e absent, Crane and Ward disabled, Rnd Welch sick; but it coh- tinues to win just tbe same. The Cleve- lands are still plxying excellent ball, and seem to be in as strong form as at any time. Philadelphia for some reason is slow­ ing down in sneed, aad unless it braces up pretty quickly will tfc> well down in the list of competitors. The Phillies started in this year confident of winning the flag, and in looking back over their record it will be seen that they had good grounds upon which to base strong hopes of success. In 1887 the Phillies landed a good second, and had the season lasted two months longer they would undoubt­ edly nave finished ahead of Detroit. Last year they 1 sd calculated on winning, but the death of Ferguson, and the accidents to Fogartv, Mulvey ana B^stian again in- Cict«>.......".j'. terfeed wit !i their plans.

The League staff of umpires is going to get a shaking up at an early dav; and two of the present staff will walk the plank. It is not a difficult matter to euess who they are, forBarnnm and Fessenden have hardly given satisfaction in any l>f the League cities. They no donbt mean well. but they do tot appear to be gifted with the qualities that go to make up puocess- ful umpires. Barnum is gentlemanly and goes »bout his work with great care and tries to do what is right, i ut ho is of a nervous temperament, and lacks judgment at critical points. Fessenden has weak­ nesses which are apparent to every one who has watched his work; hence he will have to go. President Young would have been pleased to have kept his staff of umpires intact throughout the season, but there was a general complaint againr ^ Burnum and Fessenden that could not be ignored. Wesley Curry will be pro­ moted to be a regular, and Phil Powers, of the International Association, for­ merly an old league player and after­ ward an umpire, will be appointed to fill the vacancy. Mr. Young has over fifty applications for the position of substi­ tute, but has not deeiced whom he will select. latter seven years for burglary. --The reports to the Illinois Board of Agricu'ttire, on which th# esti­ mates of the «rea devoted to com this season and the condition of the growing plant are based, have been received from all counties of the State with the excep­ tion of Grundy and Hardin, says a Springfield dispatch. In the Northern division tho area planted g| estimated at 2.980,000 acres, which is only m shade less than the con: area of last season in this division, as returned by the assestprs. The early spring was favorable for planting, aud corn made its Qrst apiiearance above ground much earlier than usual. There ha& been too much rain during .Tune for the Sroper cultivation of the crop, aud its 00n-ition Is considerably below on average. In the Central fH vision the corn area la about tbe same as last, season, when the assessor! re­ turned an art a of 2,996,063 acres. Up to theiat of June the condition was better than usual for that date. The plant had a good healthy color, was growing rapidiy. and the ground was free from weeds, when the recent excessive raina set in'aud very materially changed the condition, suspending the further cultivation and inun­ dating thou Bands of acre9 in the bottom lands of the Mississippi, Illinois, and SangamonBtv- er6, where the larger portion of the bottom lands in cultivation lie, destroying many thou­ sands of acres. In the southern (UvMKm J&e arfea" devoted to corn tiiis season is estlhwedat-- about one million one hundred thousand two hundred and forty acres, a slight increase over tho area of 18S8. Like the centra! division section has suffered from the heavy ndntell ail along the Mississippi, Wabash, Embarrass, and Okaw Hirers, -where immense fields of corn have been entirely destroyed. A11 estimate of tbe damage cannot be made at this time. * 'V- K > W.-^j : .V1 --In an editorial on the debts of 11 li- New York lovers of tbe game are just nois municipalities, the Chicago Tribune >w in good spirits over the club's ar-1 rpmnrW •. si-remarks: A brief dispatch stated laBt week that' one of' the townships of Stark County had issued 000,- 0;K> in C per cent, bonds to refund the name amount of indebtedness which had been paying: 10 per cent., aud that another township had' re­ funded its old 10 per cent, debt at 5 per osnt.. These things are nappenirg almost daily and are lessening the burden of local taxation In t his State materially. Most of the bonds issued rangements for new grounds. The grounds across the buy at Stat en Island where the team has been playing since it was compelled to leave the polo grounds have been given up, and a piece of prop­ erty secured on Manhattan Island, which it is hoped will be ready for the team when they return to - New York, July 8, for their next home season. The new park will extend 410 feet on One Hundred and Fifty-fifth street and will have a front line of 310 feet on Eighth avenue. Its shape will be a segment of a circle with straight sides not unlike a horseshoe, but broader. The average depth will be fifty feet on the main floor and thirty-one feet on the bal­ cony. It will seat 5,500 neople, which, with the bleacheries, wiltattord accom­ modations for 15,000 people.

It is easier of access than the old grounds, the en­ trance being within a few yards of the steps of the elevated railro id. Of course it is further up town, but the difference in time was used up by the ten- minute walk necessary to reach the old polo grounds, which is now avoided. SMALL TALK. Pitcher George was released- by Now York last week and will no cloubt sign with the Columbus. He is in good trim and would make a good m>m for them. There is a general disposition on the part of all clubs to insist that umpires shall not do their work behind the pitchers. They miss sharp hits near the foul lines and batsmen declare that they interfere with their sight of tho ball. The betting here against the Giants taking the pennant has been 25 to 1. Now the odds are 5 to 1, and not many takers at that. Gotlam's most conservative cranks figure out that Chicago will end the sea­ son either third or fourth - the former, if their pitchers get into shape. --Exehantre. Chicago's pitchers are in shape, and the by counties, cities, towns and townships ate registered,with the Auditor of State, ana ii is therefore possible to form some idea as to the amount both of the principal and yearly inter­ est.. The indebtedness of neither Cook County nor of any of its subdivisions is included in the figures given by the Auditor, which apply almost exclusively to railroad aid and drainage bonds. There was due at the close of last year 818,405.000, nearly all of it for money givea-to- help railways. Had it not beeu for the Consti­ tution Of 1870, which put a summary stow to- blanket mortgaging, the indebtedness on this account would have been nearer forty millions. It did get up to about twenty-four millions, but a quarter of It has been paid off. In 1887 it- toak $1,475,000 to pay the interest on these bonds."" The folio-wing year it took but $1,305,000, I'lda what with payments made on the prind- id the reductions iu the rate of interest, it will be fully a hundred thousand collars iess than in 1888.
