'I he assertion is made that wheat will bo )l 00 and possibly a review of the Knropenn shortage baitig made the baais of this claim. (ieorge M. Miller, editor of the 'i.'i'e, in speaking uf this n iw address to the fariiH r ny: "We still believe that a lart'e uuiount of praiii will be held back: that the rurh is practically over. Our advices from thousands of corres-pondents are to this effect. These early sales wtre by those disiressd for money and those not connected with tho alliance." Tho circular savs: "Tho farmer needs honest advisers; he lias now too many of the other kind." It sharply raps the elevator men and millers', the grain dealers aud speculator, and "thoso newspaper men who go to them for their information about tbe condi-tion of tho market, and lay it as a valu-able truth before the public 'Two months af;j all these advisers predicted low prices ou account of the enormous crops in the United States, and ndvised the farmers to sed as soon as thev had a chance." Thev admit now." says the circular, "when tbe question has been ventilated, that an immense shortage exists in Europe which no surplus in our country can offset; but still they try to tempt tbe fanners into sacrificing their crops by different trick. The press, for in-stance, is overflowing with nrticles congratulating the fanners on tho im-mense crops. "The srticles are suspicious, for," say the circular, "we hope few news-pnpo- r men are so ignorant that they (lou't know that a large crop is of itself no pruurid for cougra'.ulalion. It is the farm value ot the crop, and this dons not deoend upd. its s ze. Tho newspapers, now, enlighten the farm-ers that Kurope will need all they have raised and mote, but ihat they cannot buy it at the exorbitant rates." The circular stales that the fiirures of the Vienna congress shew that F.orope has raisei' 0oi), 0o buslifla oi wheat and T.aUsin.ndO bushe's of rye lcs than last year. ' Last year it co,!sum,)d all its own w heat aud .VJ OOii.uiKi of re-serves, lOll.OUO.O'KJ from America, all th.--.t other countries coi ld supply, and all lis own rye crop. This year it will have from America J'.'O.OOO.OOO bushels. If the cxJrume figures on our crop are taken it will liavo an aggrrg-tt- BiiortHge of bushels iu its own crop, and oO.OU-J.OO- bushels less to be drawn from thj reserve. In short, it w ill have J20,00').Oo() hushels from America to make up a total de!icieucy"j of I'.'HiOllO.OCO bushels arvl must, con-- 1 seque .tly, eat (:,0o0,0w ktisi.i-l- lesA gram. "It beiug admitted," says tha circu-lar, "that the shortaao in Kurope.-.- ti crops is by fur the worse ever known in history, it would bo natural for Ku- - ropeans to evpect h'h prices. The 'advisers' of the American farmer tell him it per bushel in Ciii-cair-is iinoiit the highest the Kuropenn will stjuid, and that ihcy would raiher ep.t oihir tilings than pny more for wheat." The circular says this assertion is ri-diculous.

These high prices did not, so far as the' recollec-tion of the writer goes, cliang i the diet of tho Europeans to any great extent. "The shortage in Kurope bein four times as great ns the American sur-plus," says tho circular, "there is no ilonlit but. that tho nriee of wlie-i- t wi:l reach the highest figure ever known, before this year is up, and exceed it by far before tho new crops come in. " The talk that one-dolla- wheat in Chicago is higher under the present circumstances is," it says, "absolutely ridiculous. Of course if the farmers should insist on offering more wheat than there is money to buy, they could kecp.thn prices down a little, but, "says tho circular, "the warning came in good season to the spring wheat farm-ers, and they held buck better than the speculators expected. There never was any good reason for having tho wheat price so low it is today. Those who ai'rt forced by aluoluto necessity to sell, or who aro too idiotic to under-stand thn situation, are not so numer-ous that their action can keep down the prices any length of lime, am) ns soou ss the fools are out of tho market the intelligent farmers will get prices ade-quate to the circumstances.

Says Chairman Eaine!. on Thace Linea The Peopls Wsary of Piatt- - Sauatooa. N. Y Sept. 15. The deuiocratio state convention was called to order at noon. George Haines of Rochester was chosen temporary chair-man and iuda au address, lie said: "Tho campaign whi-'- h now draws upon us is to be fought upon the rsc-ord- s of the parties iu ti.e state adminis-tration. It will assure the coulider.ee of tho pooplu in their actual leader-ship. Plutlism stalks iu midday for popular yiew and judgment. "The most conspcuous plauk in the republican platform," he said, "is a precise acknowledgement of recip-rocity in trade with foreign people a.) advantageous to all our industries, and points w ith pride to the growing com-merce of our country and the recip rocity with our American neighbors inducod by the matchless foresight of Secretary lilaine. "That foresight so conimonded," continued tho speaker, "dates from February, 1810, and was very hateful to the republican con- - gresi. It cams too late to stop the movement of the pcoplo in every stale to retire that republican congress. The foresight of the people had been exercised at a much earlier period and hud been kept active by the wilful determination of congress to give such reduction in the tariff as would make it competitive, aud not prohib-itory. "It is along the lines of state affairs that this contest must wage most keenly. The people are weary of a dictator of legislation not charged by the people with office. Thoy realize that Piatt's whim has been as the breath in the nostrils of Senator Fas-set- t during his whole career. Fassett's leadership has been forced upon his associates by evory appliance of machine politics. lie bas held by the throat the largest interests of the state until they gave up a bribe of place or sutwervance to the ambition of Piatt." The speaker dwelt at length upon state matters. Speaking of tha last census the speaker Maid that tbe state by it bad been robbed of its equal right to the ballot box. lie scored the republican legislature for it failures to do various things for the good of tha state and tha people. In closing he eulogized Hill, and hoped the mantle of succession in the high office of governor would fall upon a brave and skillful leader an J as true a democrat as the governor-senator- . Wbeu Haines referred to Governor Hill he was enthusiastically cheered. After roll call a short recess was takon. After the recess Voorhees protested on behalf of the New York democracy against the Tammany delegations iu every assembly district in New York. Jackson presented the protest of the county democracy . After the convention reassembled the usual committees were appointed, and the convention took a recess until to-morrow morning. Mora Than a Mil a atlaata. JJnFFALO, N. Y.. Sept. 15.

Sentumber llh, says: IJalinaceda has escaped from the clutches of his enemies and is now safe on the high seas under the protneion of the U'Lited States flag. All the time the soldiers of the juota were guarding the passes of the Andes to prevent bis getting into the Argentine Pepu'iilic, and tbe police of the new ptovisional government were search-ing the monasteries in and around Santiago for the fugitive be was in biding in Ibis city. Ho was more apt to escape detection bore than anywhe-- e else, for his opponents never dreamed that he would dare return to Valparaiso, they being assured he hal lied from it. Ualmacada chose his refuge wisely, for he was enabled to throw himself upon the mercy of Admiral llrown of thb United States flagship San Fran Cisco, and beg to be saved from the re-venge bo feared from bis foes. Admiral Lrowo did what other foreign adirirale would have dono under similar ciicum-stance- He stepped in to sava possi-bly a humau lifo. In the name of hu-manity he consented to afford lialma-c- r da tbe shelter of his ship aud the pro-tection of the stars and stripes. To effect the ex president's escape it was de.'idnd to have Kalmaceda dis-guise himself as a drunken United Sti-.te- sailor. Clothing was seut ashore in a market boat last night, by order of Admiral Prowu. It wbji smuggled by one uf Halmaeeda's faithful adherents into the bouse nora tbo ox presi-dent was in biding, lio carefully douu-e-it and after a close inspection of his new and strange altire to see that there was nothing about its gut-u- which would arouse suspicion, he stole out by the rear entrance imo the streets. .Nightfall! favored his disguise and he liadTKtidrtid his part so well that Le feigned the drunken inr to perlection. tin his way toward the waterfront be rolled bv many men whi would have been riefighteil to have had a chance to sie.e aud turn him over to the police atuhonties. In ti"io ho reached the spot in hailior arranifed upon.. There he found a boat awaking him. It was manned by sturdy United Siits men. lialmaceda. still maintaining bis disguise, made a linal drunken stumble and fell into tho boat. It pushed oil' at once, and iu a slmrt time the all signs ol in-ebriety at an cud, climbed swift'y up the ropes and was saved, lie went at once to one of tho cabins aft of l!:e S;iu Francisco and did not again slu .v himself above. This part of the vessel was reserved solely forits prominent guest. Nobody was allowed inside the cabin. TI19 of-ficers of the Ssu Francisco were ques-tioned about the matter but resolutely refused to discusss it. The San Fran-cisco left Valparaiso this evening lor Calao, thence it will sail for California. Halmacoda may elect to land at Caliao, where many of his leading partisans tiave already been taken hy foreign ships, on board which they sought refuiro after the fall of Valparaiso. Admiral Brown's action will uudoubt edly for a time at least, increase the bitter feeling hero toward the l'uild Males government, although admirals of other foreign vessels have taken prominent Halmacedists aboard. The Hi rulii'n Peru cablegram under date of September -', fays: The Chil-ean junta's warship Truman, which ar-r- i pit here a few days ago to take back to Vaipaialao the torpedo boat v'ondell and the, transport Impcrialo, late of Halmacctla's licet, sailed today for that port with them. Several prominent members of Balmaeoda's government, who took rer iMou the foreign warships iu the hai l. Hi' of Valparaiso, ai'ter that city v?s captured by the junta's troops, arrived here today. Among them was Vicuna, who during tho ascendancy of Balmaceda was elected as his successor to the presidency of Chile; Sennr Do-mingo Codoy, of slate and foreign all'mrs and Halmaeeda's brother are also of tho party. The Ih rnhV." cable from Valparaiso today svys: J'ho I'nited Stales war ship llaltimiire returned hero today lrom Call-a- where it landed the refu-gees. Ollicials have been despatched by the Junta to Kurope to bring over the new Chilean warships Pint ) and Knaztii'i7,. Some adherauts of the congressional party while returning trom MoiitelrJeo on the British steamer J; hn Elder, were upon tl.e:r arrival at Punts Arenas threatened with arrest by Balmaeeda's governor there. Ho had' not yet beard tno news of Balmaceda's downfall. 1 he British captaiu refused to deliver the persons up and they arrirud here safely today. A Twltt I.hcklua. St'MKKSET, Ky., Sept. 15.

It is now stated that the Mitylens scare has arisea from the fact that a party of British naval officers Saturday last picnicked on a desert islet off Cape Sigri, and that they tha same evening on board their vessel and sailed away Monday. Vienna, Sept. 15. The Political of this cily in explanation of the reported occupatioa of Mitylene by tho Hntish fleet says a reaction oc-curred in the sultan's mind that he rec-ognized that he bad been "The victim of a shameless intrigue."

In lifteen minutes the llames were bayond con-trol. There were many people in the building and some of them bad to slide down tbe lire escape through dense smoke. It is believed all escaped. From the first it was seen that noth-ing could save the building and atten-tion was directed to saving the adjoining property. There were numerous nar-row escapes. John Gibbs who was on the second lloor came down the tiro escape so rapidly that his clothes were torn and his hair singed. There was considerable scarcity of water at the commencement of tbe lire. At 10:20 o'clock the fire was under control.
