WEATHER CROP BULLETIN
Issued From the U. S. Department of
Agriculture for March.
The mean temperature for the month
of March differs but slightly from the
normal throughout all agricultural dis
tricts east of the Rocky mountains, ex
cept in the spring wheat regions of Min
nessota and the Dakotas, In the gulf
states, the southern portion of the At
lantic states, and in Missouri and Kansas
the average temperature for the month
was about two degress below’ the normal,
while in the northen states, east of the
Mississippi, the departure was about one
degree, there being a slight excess in
the Virginia and upper Ohio valley,
where they correspond in deficiency in
New England.
Over the spring wheat region the aver
age temperature was from five to ten de
grees below the normal. On the north
Pacific coast the timperature for the
month was from three to six degrees
lower than usual, while in northern Mon
tana the deficiency amounted to from
ten to twelve degrees per day.
The weeks ending March 6th and 20th
were decidedly colder than usual
throughout the centr.d valleys, includ
ing the winter and spring wheat regions
and the gulf states, while the week end
ing March 13th was decidedly warmer
than usual over the region named, show
ing that the winter wheat has been sub
jected to trying conditions of freeing
and thawing, the effect of which it wHI
not be possible to determine until the
crop is further advanced. The week
ending March 27th was relatively warm
throughout the southern and middle At
lantic states and Ohio valley, and colder
throughout the northwest.
The month of March was relatively dry
throughout all districts east of the Mis
sissippi, except in Wisconsin and Florida.
There was also less rain than usual in the
southwest and as far north as Kansas and
Missouri.
Throughout the cotton region the de
ficiency in rainfall ranged from two to
four inches, except in Texas and west
ern Arkansas, where the rainfall was
from one to two inches less than usual.
The rainfall throughout the Ohio valley,
middle Atlantic and New England
states was from one to two inches below
the normal except over portions of the
immediate New England coast, where
there was a slight increase. Unusually
heavy rains occurred in Florida,
where the excess ranges from one to
five inches. More than the usual
amount of rain is also reported from the
stabs of the upper Missouri valley and
the Dakotas, and the eastern portion of
South Dakota, amounting to one inch.
Excessive rains also occurred in southern
and northern California and the central
portion of the state received almost an
inch more than the usual amount. Ore
gon received from two to three inches
less rain than usual for the month of
March, and the state of Washington re
ports a slight excess. Throughout the
<rreater portion of the R’-cky mountain
districts and over the central plateau re
gion there was a general deficiency in
rainfall, but reports from Arizona indi
cate a slight excess in that region.
DECISION AGAINST STRIKES.
Merchants Affected are Entitled to In
junctions and Other Relief.
Judge Biliings, in the United States
court, at New Orleans, Saturday, ren
dered an opinion in the suit of the gov
ernment sgainst’the Amalgamated council
and the new officers of the various labor
organizations which ordered the general
strike in November last. An injunction
against the organizations was asked for
under the act of congress prohibiting
combinations in restraint of trade.
In an elaborate opinion, the court sets
aside every daim of the defendants and
declares tnat the acts of the Amalga
mated council and the officers of the
union were unlawful in ordering a gen
eral strike, and that the merchants are
entitled to injunctions and other relief.
The decision diseusses fully the right of
labor unions, and is far-reaching in its
tnects. Asa result of the decision crim
inal prosecution against the defendants
would probably lie, but it is not yet
kniwn whether the Uoited States au
thorities will proceed further against the
alleged labor leaders.

SPRING TRADE.
Bradstreet’s Report of Business for
the Post week.
Bradstreet’s repoit for the past week
says: Cool and clear weather generally
bas improved the prospect for spring
trade, but without an increase in distri
bution. In the central western states a
fair movement of merchandise is reported,
although prospects are improved north
west business continues retarded. The
south remains quiet ns heretofore. Re
ports of improving trade characterize
advices from western centers, where
there are numerous arrivals of country
buyers and orders for spring goods. In
no previous spring have reports of the
effect on general trade of bad roads
southwest and northwest been so con
spicous as recently. Collections are only
fair, with no serious complaints. Ex
ports of wheat from the United States
for the week, both coasts, flour included,
equal 2,875,122 bushels against 2,766,22
bushels the week before; 2,379,330 bush
els in the week a year ago and smaller
quantities in like weeks in preceding
years. The close of the month brings a
falling off in volume of merchandise dis
tributed from New Orleans, where cot
ton and rye markets are depressed while
sugar is pressed and bouyant. The pros
pect is still for a larger cotton acreage,
but a reduced rece acreage is promised,
The recent firmness of the market has
developed into a decided tendency in
prices to creep up in the face of narrow
and inactive speculation. This address,
much to the confusion of the bearish
section of the professional traders, who
rely upon the possibility of gold ship
ments or of a squeeze in money in the
withdrawals of the money for the apt
settlements throughout the country dis
tricts had created a considerable short
interest
Arrested for Forgery,
A Louisville, Ky„ special says: A. R.
Button and his confidential bookkeeper,
William M. Beecher, were arrested Fri
day* afternoon, each on tea charges of
forgery. Thus the climax in the cele
brated whisky forgery case of A. R. Sut
ton & Cos. was reached and a court of
justice will say whether the two men are
guilty. The’ Farmers’ and Drovers’
bank, which was caught for $15,000,
swore out the warrants, and other tanks
have signified their intention of assist
ing the prosecution.
NEW SOUTHERN INDUSTRIES.
The Chattanooga Tradesman Gives
Some Interesting Statistics.
The quarterly statement of southern
industries prepared by the Tradesman, of
Tennessee, shows that for the first quar
ter of 1893 the new industries establish
ed exceed those < f the first quarter of
1892 by 198, while for the first quarter
of this year only 8 developed companies
have been incorporated; during the same
period for last year 27 were formed.
The quarter just ended also shows 76
cotton and woolen mills established, 59
fi >ur and grist mills, 29 canning facto
ries, 40 oil mills and the building of 32
waterworks plants. That the extensive
timber interests of the south are not only
ittracting attention, but capital, is shown
y the fact that 195 new woodworking
plants have been established during the
pa t quarter as against 122 in 1892 and
141 in the first quarter of 1841. Ten
nessee heads the list with 33 new indus*
ries in this line to her credit. Georgiy
nd North Carolina are close rivals with
24 and 28 respectively. All the southern
dates, however, are well represented in
thi3 developuent, Mississippi with 7, be
ing the smallest number.
Seventy-six textile industries were es
ablished in the quarter as against 28 in
he first quarter of 1892 and 45 in the
same period of 1891; and the very gen
eral character of this development is
shown by the fact that only 3 spates—
Arkansas, Kentucky and West Virginia,
are not represented in this total. Ala
bama leads the list with 22; North Caro
lina, 16; Georgia, 13; South Carolina,
8, and Virginia, 5; Mississippi, 4, and
Tennessee and Texas 3 each, and Florida
nd Louisiana 1 each.
This quurter shows 58 flour and grist
mills established as against 29 for the
same quarter of 1892. The increasing
demand for cotton seed oil and its pro
ducts, together with the advance in prices
which has recently taken place, accounts
for the large number of new oil mills or
ganized during the quarter; a total of
40 is shown as against 10 in 1892 and
8 in the same quarter of 1891, over half
of the total number being located m
Texas, and the remainder scattered
throughout the other cotton growing
states. Twelve brick and tile plants are
reported, 22 cotton compresses, 21 elec
tric light plants, 22 foundries and ma
chine shops, 7 ice factories, 33 water
works plants and 98 other miscellaneous
industries.
PUBLIC DEBT STATEMENT
Showing Treasury Transactions During
the Month of March.
A Washington special says: The state
ment of the public debt for the month of
Merch issued Saturday afternoon, shows
h net decrease in the debt of $1,956,172.
Of this, $453,532 is the amount of the
reduction of the bonded indebtedness of
the government and $1,502,640 is the in
crease of the cash in the treasury during
the month. The interest bearing debt
shows no change; debt on which interest
has ceased since maturity, decreased
$33,715 and the debt bearing no in
ti rest $419,818. The aggregate increase
and non-interest bearing debt March
81, was $962,828,219; on February 28th,
it was $963,281,752. The certifica'es
and treasury notes offsett by an equal
amount of cash in the treasury, outstand
ing at the end of the month, was $597,-
428,091, a decrease of $4,400,255. The
total cash in the treasury was $762,768,-
427 against which liabilities were out
standing, including the $100,000,000
greet back cold reserve, to the amount
of $737,137,699, leaving an avail
able surplus of $25,630,728. Of this
$6,892,223 was gold. Of the surplus
$15,954,641 was in national bank depos
itories against $15,681,503 at the end of
the previous month.
The receipts for the month of March
were $34,437,844, and expenditures
$32,327,997. In February the receipts
were $30,009,892, and expenditures
$31,677,454. Customs receipts increased
from $16,136,395 to $19,644,874.
Secretary Carlisle will change the form
of the debt statement before May Ist.
The changes will be of a radical charac
ter and will simplify the statement.

BATTLE BETWEEN INDIANS.
Clierokee Factions Fight and Ten Men

A special from Fort Smith, Aik., says:
A battle wss fought Tuesday at Antlers,
I. TANARUS., between Indian factions. One
hundred and fifty men were on each side.
Ten were killed and fifteen wounded.
One side represented the Choctaw gov
ernment, termed the military, and the
others are followers of V. M. Locke, who
resists arrest, fearing he will be killed
instead of given a trial by law. United
States officers arrested nineteen of tha
leaders of the militia at 6 o’clock p. m.
and took them to Paris, Tix. All is
quiet at present.
In the Choctow elections last summer,
