FOREIGN NEWS. 
Saturday. Nov. 10,1887. 
Across the Atlantic there's the same old 
story of rebellious discontent and fierce coer¬ 
cion in Ireland. A great number of incidents 
of local importance occur every day, and are 
cabled under the Atlantic to fill up space; but 
who here remembers them a week or even a day 
afterwards? In England hungry' mobs are 
still turbulent in London, clamoring, not for 
charity, but for work, Last Sunday over 
150.000 assembled in Trafalgar Square in 
spite of the prohibition of the police authori¬ 
ties; but. the crowd was dispersed, after a sav¬ 
age fight, by 0.000 policemen, aided by the 
horse and foot guards—the (iuest body of 
troops in the English army, always kept in 
London, except in cases of extreme emergency. 
A large crowd is expected there to morrow 
although the uulhoritie* have forbidden any 
meeting: and 20,000 special constables have 
been enrolled to help to disperse it and sup¬ 
press any rioting. The police arc armed, and 
exten ammunition has been served out to the 
troops. The masses’, backed up by many 
proniiueut men. insist that such meetings are 
legal. The impression grows strouger every 
day that England is greatly overpopulated.

Crops & fttarluls. 
Saturday, Nov. 19,1887. 
From Ohio to Kansas. Kansas to Minnesota. 
Minnesota to Wisconsin, anil Wisconsin to 
the Ohio River, complaints of drought are 
nearly universal. Lust year the drought at 
the same time was severe; but this year it is 
even worse. Winter grain is, in most locali¬ 
ties, in a critical condition, ami will require a 
heavy rainfall or a thick coat of snow to save 
it from disaster. lu Central aud Southern 
Illinois there are grave fears of a water fam- 
iue. The railroads through most of Illinois 
are bringing water from distant points to re¬ 
lieve local distress Live stock are suffering 
seriously for want of water; aud where there 
is any for them, except in rivers, it is gen¬ 
erally muddy and unwholesome. Through 
the Northwest the marketing of wheat is still 
continued, and although the price ranges as 
low as from 50 to 55 cents a bushel, there is 
less grumbling than usual. Things farmers 
have to buy ure correspondingly cheap. Ag¬ 
ricultural implements, for instance, can be 
bought at 30 to 40percent, loss thau in former 
j'ears. There is u heavy inter State trade in 
corn at good figures all over the Northwest, 
and indeed the West generally. Illinois to¬ 
day is an importer of corn, so are Ohio, Indi¬ 
ana, aud Kansas. 
The movement of hogs is lively and prices 
arc satisfactory. The weather has been per¬ 
fect for fattening them, and the general scar¬ 
city of corn all over the country is the strong¬ 
est inducement to get. them into the market, as 
soon as possible. The hogs of the country 
continue healthy. Of course we have here 
and there reports of sickness mid disease, but 
not. however, lu au epidemic form. 
At Chicago hogs are selling freely at about 
$t per 100 pounds higher than a year ago and 
$5 cents to $1 higher than t wo years ago, but 
$1.25 to $1,75 less than three years ago. 
The demand comes chiefly from citv packers, 
and light, weights are neglected, as Eastern or¬ 
ders are filled ut. Buffalo, Pittsburg and East. 
Liberty, where light hogs have been plenty 
and cheaper. 
At Chicago, St. Louis, Kausas City and 
other chief Western markets cattle are still un¬ 
precedentedly low; though owing to the fall¬ 
ing off in the arrival of range cattle, the fig¬ 
ures for the past week have advanced a trifle. 
At Chicago veal calves have been selling re¬ 
markably low ol late. Now the season’s calf 
trade may be regarded as at an end; except¬ 
ing a few loads of Texans, none were offered. 
Or Eastern stock calves not to exceed 30 car- 
loads have arrived during the entire sea¬ 
son since Amr. 1. In former seasons as many 
have arrived In a single week. 
The Savannah News says the Florida orange 
crop wiiii be a large one, but it will lie all re¬ 
quired to supply the demand, which is heavier 
than usual. Fancy sorts are said to bo scarce 
and return a large profit to the growers. The 
1880-87 crop amounted to l,5U0.0tH) boxes, not ¬ 
withstanding “the freeze” of 1880, Previous 
to 1880 87 the largest, crop gathered did not 
exceed 1,250,000 boxes. 
Prof. J. W. Sanborn, Secretary of the 
Mo. State Board of Agriculture, issued his 
monthly report Thursday for November 8, 
and reports the corn crop at 22.8 bushels per 
acre, or 140,21X1,235 bushels for the State. 
Only 78 per cent, of tho ucrotige of wheat is 
sown this year compared with last year. Its 
condition is only 89. Suffering from the 
severe drought, the plant is not promising. 
Potatoes are 05 per cent, of a crop; apples. 42; 
pastures, 70; tobacco yield, 7,819.800 pounds. 
Stock water Is scarce and cattle are not 
thriving ns usual. 
Lute rains have wonderfully improved the 
crops of potatoes mid roots in England, so 
that all are now fair crops. A few weeks ago 
tho cables told us potatoes were from 25 to 40 
>ov cent, higher in London than at the same 
inie last year; now prices arc about on a 
level. The Scotch potato crop is excellent. 
Brndstrcct’s summary for the week says 
there has been nn exceptional advance iu 
prices of most staples in which there are any 
speculative dealings: Indian corn 4c., wheat 
2 l .jC., cotton proving mi exception, with a de¬ 
cline of 1-1(4,-. oer pound. The gains in wheat 
and corn (which stimulated flour considerably) 
are duo mainly t«» the 21 005.000 aud 7,000,000 
bushels lighter visible stoeks. respectively, at 
I bis time than a year ago.- Wheat receipts at 
the West have declined. Canal shipments end 
practically to-day. and rail grain carriage has 
been advanced. Exports of wheat (and flour) 
for the current week, contrary to expecta¬ 
tions, are 2, 175,000 bushels, bot h coasts—more 
than double last, week’s total. Exports wheat 
aud (lour, both eoasts. twenty weeks, to No 
vember 17, aggregate til,203.190 million bush¬ 
els. The week’s wheat reports are tho heaviest 
since September (Pacific coast shipping 727,000 
bud)els). and Torn exports (410.000 bushels, 
against 683.000 bushels last week, are ahead of 
lute records. Speculation in wheat aggregates 
95,000,000 bushels for t he week, the heaviest 
week’s total this year, with some reaction iu 
price Friday.
