GOLDSBORO MESSENGER, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1886. THE CONDITION OF CROPS. October Report of the Depart ment of Agriculture Washington. at I Correspondence of the Messenger. Washington, October 21. In ad dition to the synopsis furnisihed by the Associated Press, the following extended extracts from the October report of the Statistician of he De partment of Agriculture, issued to day, will be perused with interest : cotton. The cotton season has been ;too va riable in temperature and precipita tion for the best development and largest fruitage. It was too! dry in September on the Atlantic coast, re sulting in further shedding of bolls. The boll-worm has wrought local in iury in the Gulf States, and the cater- Eillar in less degree. The weather has een comparatively favorable for picking, except for excessive heat and for rains in the Mississippi Valley and Texas. The season is late, and the risks of early frost are therefore greater, than usual, and liable to dis count the present apparent condi tion. The Georgia and Alabama! condition- is reported the same as last month. Tennessee makes a slight improvement. The Carolinas, Missis sippi, Louisiana, Texas and Arkansas show a small reduction . The averages are: Virginia, 72; North Carolina, 75; South Caroliija, 74; Georgia, 81; Florida, 85; Alabama, 80; Mississippi, 70. T 70. TVo 71. ArVon i , J-ivsuiaiauci, l J y J. dicta, 17, niaau- ss, 86; Tennessee, 9G. The average of condition is 79.3, against 82 last jmonth, and 78 in October of last year. It is six points below the October aver age of the crop of 1879. Local estimates of yield per acre, in fractions of a bale, are made by cor respondents, subject to the vicissi tudes of the later season, and espe cially the lateness of killing frost. They must not, therefore be cited as official predictions of the result of the harvest. The State averages! are as follows : Virginia, 32; North Caro lina, 32; South Carolina, 31; Geoigia, 30; Florida, 27; Alabama, 29, Missis sippi, 40; Louisiana, 49; Texas, 37; Arkansas, 52; Tennessee, 35. General average, 30. As a summary of the situation, the average of condition is a point higher than last year, the area is One per cent, more, and the season is later. The difference between a long and short season may easity be a half mil lion bales. corn. The area of corn has increased twenty per cent, since 1879, with very little stimulus from exportation, which has been but about three per cent, of the quantity produced. It still occu pies more than half of the area in cereals, and produces greater value than any other crop except grasses for hay and pasture. The increase is more rapid in the West, and the crop is most productive and profitable between the parallels of 30 deg. and 40 deg. ; , rThisyear there was a slight decline in area in several of the Atlantic coast States, with some increase in other States of the South, and a larger advance, as for many years pafet, west of the Mississippi. The preparation for the crop in the corn growing States was delayed somewhat by spring rains. In the Gulf States planting was later than usual, while on the Atlantic coast it was generally earlier. The temperature of the Ohio Valley in planting time was normal, and high in the Missouri Valley;! in the Southern Atlantic States it was low in April and nearly average in May ; while on the Gulf States it was gen erally near an average during the season of corn planting. July tern- perature was low in an tne corn- growing region except the Missouri Valley and. the Northern Pacific coast region. At the first of September the con dition of corn was low, from defi ciency of heat in the Northeast, from excess or irregularity of rainfall in the Atlantic coast States and those of the Gulf coast, with deficiency of moisture west of the Mississippi and some excess ot heat, causing an inju rious drought, which also affected some districts east of the Mississippi. The effect of these injurious! condi tions was to reduce the general aver age from 95 in July to 81 on the 1st of August, and to u on the 1st oi Sep tember. The high temperature of September, however, with the ab sence of injurious frosts, made a very material improvement in maturing the crop, and brought the general average up to SO. The difference be tween this season and that of 1885 is quite fairly indicated by the October average of condition, which was 95 last year, the same as the average for July this year. It means a reduction of f ourroushels or more per acre for the entire area equivalent to about 300,000,000 bushels. The Aucrust decline was uneaual. and in the Carolinas, Georgia, Mis sissippi and Louisiana, there was some improvement, with less moisture and more sunshine. In Texas drought caused a decline of two points. The Upper Ohio region also made some improvement, while Illinois arid the States west or tne .Mississippi sunerea heavy reductions during August, in consequence of the prevalence of drought. The final averages of condition of the seven States which produce seven tenths of the crop are : Ohio, ! an in crease from 89 to 9Q ; Indiana, from 92 to 93; Illinois, from 72 to74i Iowa, from 67 to 78; Missouri, from 62 to 73. While the improvement was quite marked, it is possible that a small part of the depression in the August ng ures comes from the uneliminated "panic,'' which is an element in bad returns that always causes trouble in scientific consolidation. Condition is high in New England, from 92 to 98, and nearly as high in New York and Pennsylvania, and ranges from 80 to 90 m the Southern States east of the Mississippi, is still higher in Arkansas and Louisiana, and falls to 75 in Texas in consequence of drought. TOBACCO. 5 The tobacco average of condition is nearly 87; Kentucky, 92; Tennessee, 90; North Carolina, 80; Virginia, 77; Maryland, 75; cigar tobacco averages high except in Wisconsin. SWEET POTATOES. The area devoted to this crop was largely increased m those States where it is a material part of the agricul tural production, and condition on July 1 was high. The wet weather in the South during that month was not conducive to good growth, and there was a slight falling off in the average of the larger States. This decline was continuing and more marked during August, and the figures of condition on September 1 gave evidence of local injuries from supersaturation in some sections and drought in others. There has been a further reduction during the past month, mainly from drought, in portions of South Caro lina, Georgia, Mississippi and Louis iana. Condition in principal States is: North Carolina, 93; Georgia, 90; Alabama 92; Mississippi, 92; Tennes see, 95, and South Carolina, 94. NORTH CAROLINA STATE AGENT'S RE PORT. j The recent frosts have materially damaged tobacco standing in the fields, especially in the lowlands, which will considerably reduce the yield, but precisely how much cannot yet be stated. In the middle portion of the State about two-thirds of the crop had been housed, and the impres sion is that one-third or the remainder has been killed. The weather has been favorable for work and consider able progress was made in cutting, much being cut in a green state in an ticipation of frost. C. W. H. INTER-STATE COMMERCE. An Important Decision by the United States Supreme Court. Washington, D. C, October 26. The Supreme Court of the Unfted States rendered a decision to-day in in the case of the Wabash, St. Louis and Pacific Railroad Company, against the people of the State of Illinois, brought up on writ of error from the Supreme Court of the State of Illi nois. Thequestion presented in this case as it came to the Supreme Court, was the general subject of the power of the State Legislature to regulate fares and pools for pas sengers and freights over railroads within their limits. The specific charge was that the railroad company charged parties in Gilman, 111., 25 cents per hundred pounds to transport goods from that place to New York city, and charged other parties in Peoria, 111., 86 miles further from New York city, only 15 cents per hundred pounds to carry their goods to New York city. The case was tried in several Illinois courts, with varying results, until finally the Supreme Court of the State held that this discrimination was in violation of State laws, and rendered judgment against the railroad com pany. The decision of the Supreme Court to-day is in effect that the State law regulating freight charges cannot apply to inter-State traffic, as such application would trench upon the constitutional powers of Congress, and be a damaging restriction of the free dom of traffic. Justice Miller, who delivered the opinion of the court, says on this point : FOf the justice or propriety of the principle which lies at the foundation of the Illinois Statute it is now the province of this court to speak. As restricted to a transportation which begins and ends within the limits of the State it may be very just and equitable, and it certainly is the pro vince of the State Legislature to de termine the question. But when it attempted to apply to transportation through an entire series of States a principle of this kind, and each one of States, or of half-a-dozen States, shall attempt to establish its own rates of transportation, its own methods to prevent discrimination in rates or to permit it, the deletrious influence upon the freedom of commerce among the States and upon the transportation of goods through these States Court be over-estimated. That this species of legislation is one which must be, if established at all, of a general and national character, and cannot be safely and wisely remitted to local rules and local regulations, we think, is clear from what has already been said. And if it be a regulation of commerce, as we think we have de monstrated that it is, and the Illinois Court concedes it to be, it must be of that national character, and the reg ulation can only appropriately be gen eral rules and principles, which de mand that it should be done by the Congress of the United States under the commerce clause of the constitu tion. The judgment of the Supreme Court of Illinois is, therefore, reversed, and the case remanded to that court for further proceedings in conformity with this opinion." Chief -Justice Waite, Justices Gray and Bradley dissent from the opinion of the court, holding that Congress, not having legislated to preyent un just discrimination in railroad charges, the State of Illinois, has the power to do so. The dissenting judges think the effect of the present decision of the court will be to surrender and give over the just powers of the States to the railroad corporations which they have created, and which depend for all their powers upon the grants re ceived from the States.

A hospital has been erected at Baldwin ville, Mass. , and dedicated to the treatment of epileptic children. It is the only institu tion of the kind in the world. An Unprecedented Accident. One would have thought it impossible that there should be an unprecedented accident; but it is said that the catastrophe on Loch Fyne, by which 7 persons lost their lives recently, had never occurred before. It has been the custom of the bailies of Glasgow to attend the annual "monster blasts" in the great Crarae quarries on that loch, and this year the custom was observed. Seven tons of powder were fired at once, dislodging, it is believed, some 80,000 tons of granite, and after the stone had fallen the visitors strolled into the quarries to see the result. fcSome GOO ladies and gentlemen were stand ing about talking, when one after another was observed to fall apparently dead, till nearly a hundred bodies were stretched on the stone. They were at once carried out by the quarrymen; but it was found that 7 were dead, and that 30 more were more or less in jured, a few severely. The visitors had been asphyxiated by the sulphurous vapor caused by the blast, the shortest among them feeling it first and most severely. One witness, who fainted but recovered, testified that the sen sation was "rather pleasant than painful." No blame attaches to any one, the vapor having been retained longer than usual by the horseshoe shape of the quarry, which stops the breeze on three sides. London Spec tator. Property That Goes Cheap. "You don't catch me paying full price for furniture and carpets," observed a thin man, who wore crape on his hat, as he stood in, with a crowd at a'down-town resort in Chi cago, last evening. "I've get a better thing, and as my house is nearly all furnished I don't mind giving the scheme away. Perhaps j ou have noticed that every now and then a murder or a suicide occurs in a hotel here. Well, that's just my persimmons. Such things are more dreadful to the average hotel keeper than the day of judgement. The room where the tragedy occured is always ripped up im mediately, and thfe carpet, furniture, bedding and everything carted out and new stuff put in. I have just kept track of these sad oc currences, and by presenting myself at the office early I have made a low bid and taken the property at my own figure. What's a few spots on things when you can furnish your house elegantly for nothing almost? There's only one thing that I need now, and I can get along without that, of course, but still I would like to have it. I have a parlor where a murder was committed, a dining room where a man shot him6elf, and three suicide bedrooms, one of tbem a cut-throat, but I have no library. If some gentlemen will kindly spoil a hotel reading room for me I'll be pretty well fixed." Ghicago Herald. Largest Woman in the World. Winnie Johnson, who is on exhibition in Cincinnati, is probably the largest woman in the world. She is five feet eight and a half inches in height, measures three feet around the upper arm, four feet five inches around the thigh, eight feet nine inches aroufid the bust, and is said to weigh 733 pounds. Winnie is a black woman. Bitten by a Cottonmouth. Rosa Fenton, an Arkansas girl, was bitten in the forefinger by a cottonmouth spake.

She is all right now. Mrs. Mark Hopkins. The wealthiest woman in California is Mrs. Mark Hopkins, the widow of one of the four original founders of the Central Pacific rail road. Her fortune is estimated at $40,000, 000. She dividas her time between San Fran cisco and Great Barrington, Mass. New York Graphic. Broke Up the Party. A citizen of Holyoke, Mass., was drinking at a bar the other day with three companions, when his wife came in, joined the drinkers, and ordered drinks for all hands. It is said that no more effectual way of breaking up a drinking party was ever known in that sec tion. 1 - -- i i A Cool-Headed Girl. Recently a New York girl of 13, who had taken lessons in "Fist Aid to the Injured," was in Fallsburg, N. Y., when a boy was thrown from a wagon and his leg broken. She at once put her knowledge into use, set the leg, and he is recovering fast. New York Bun. Delayed by Fallen Leaves. Railroad trains running through woods are more or less delayed at this season of the year by leaves that are drawn to the track by the suction of the trains.
