Final Government Crop Report.
The final crop report of the Agricul-
tural Department, which has recently
appeared, shows such a general falling
off of the grain product of the country
for 1893 that a further fall in prices
seems almost out of the question. .
In wheat there is- a decrease, com-
pared with the net product for 1892, of
nearly 120,000,000 bushels ; in corn the
decrease is purely nominal, being about
9,000,000 bushels, while in cats the de-
crease is in the neighborhood of 23,-
000,000. _ ‘
From these figures it appears evident
that the surplus of our wheat crop avail-
able for export will be comparatively
small, and hence prices for that cem-
modity are likely to appreciate in the
near future. . .
The effects of the grain-carrying
trafic on the gross earnings ‘of the
Western railways is not usually felt
very heavily after the end of January,
and now that a large part of the crop
has been shipped we may look for a
steady diminution in the decreases of
traffic reported by the lines leading out
of Chicago. ,
At anyrate this much is sure, that
the uncertainty relative to the annual
crops of this country every year is
something that railways, farmers and
produce dealers are glad to have be-
hind them, and especially so after a
year of comparatively poor crops, low
prices and business depression.

Annual Meeting.
The annual meeting of the first Con-
gregational church was held last even-
ing and ’the reports showed a healthy
condition in the various branches of
church work. The benevolences have
aggregated over $3,000, of which sum
the Y. M. C. A. received $680, and the
hospital was not forgotten. The follow-.
ing officers were elected for the ensuing
year: Treasurer, Eugene L. Boyer;
‘ Clerk, Arthur .B. Hill; S. s. Supt.,
Charles E. Curtis; Lady Supt., Miss
C. E. Raymond; S. S. Trees, Frank
J. Curtis ; S. S. Secy., J. Wallace Mar-
vin ; S. S. Librarian, Aurelius Meeker;
Parish Missionary, Miss Georgie Tay-
lor. Two deacons whose three years’
term of service had expired were re-
elected, and were Melville E. Mead and
. James E. Wixon. This is the eighth
time Mr.‘Wixon has been re-elected.
The church has entered upon a new
year in a spirit of entire {harmony and
prosperity.
The Tribune Almanac.
A larger volume than ever before,
now numbering over 360 pages, but
sold at the same price as when in the
Forties, it printed only‘60 pages. The
New York Tribune almanac for 1894
comes to us this week, revised, re-ar-
ranged, freshened up to date, and en-'
riched by the addition of new features.
The book contains an almost unlimited
array of statistics on every conceivable
subject which concerns the whole peo-
ple of 'the United States, with much
which interests only the political parties
or other large bodies of men or women.
Some space is given to the Silver
bullion controversy at the last session
of Congress. '

5ch Only a. Short Time.
Gen. William H. Noble, so long one
walk, died at his home in Bridgeport
Thursday afternoon at 12:30 o’clock.
Last week Tuesday he took cold and
ed into broncho-pueumonia, since when
his physician has had little hope. He
died without suffering. His wife, his
daughter Henrietta, and his son, John
F. Noble, were at his bedside. ' A
General William Henry Noble was
born in Newtown, August 18, 1813. He
was educated at the military school of
Captain Alden Partridge, at Middle-
town. He went to Bridgeport in 1834
and soon after entered the law office of.
Judge Joseph Wood, and was admitted
to the bar of Fairfield county in 1836.
He was clerk of the courts in Fair-
field county for several years and in
1839 he married Harriet Jones, daugh-
ter of Benjamin Brooks of Bridgeport.
In 1846 he was appointed the state’s , at-
lorney of this county, and in 1850 he
was nominated for congress from this
district but was defeated.
In 1860, as a Douglass Democrat, he
took a prominent part in the organiza-
tion of the Union party in this state,
the election of Governor Buckingham
and the support of all war measures; In
Connecticut volunteers.
General Noble’s war record is one of
which his iends were always proud.
He receiv his commission on July 22,
1862, and within 30 days 1,000 men were
ready for the front. They were muster-
ed into service in August 28, and left
for the front on September 3. V.The
regiment was severely'taxed by marches
and counter-marches,but finally settled
down into winter quarters at Brooks
Station, Va., until the Chaucellorsville
campaign.
At the‘battle of Uhancellorsville Col-
onel Noble’s regiment. bravely with-
stood the terrible onslaught of Stone-
wall ' Jackson. Colonel Noble was
wounded, having the main artery of his
left arm. cut by a minnic ball, being
struck on the left knee by a fragment
of shell and having his horse shot under
him. , He was led fainting from the
field. the fortunate clogging of the ar-
tery preventing his bleedirg to death,
but circulation having stopped in the
lower arm' he only saved his arm from
immediate amputation at the field hospi:
tal where he was taken, by insisting
upon waiting to see Dr. Hubbard, the
surgeon of his regiment. Dr. Hubbard
said the arm could be saved and the
wounded colonel was given .a furlough
of 20 days. '
His work throughout the war was
marked by valor and perseverence. On
July 4, 1863, he charged with his brig-
ade into the town of GettySburg early
in the morning and recaptured it.-
On December 24, 1864, he was cap-
tured by a band of guerillas and taken
to the prison at Andersonville.
mained in confinement until the middle
of the following April, when he with a
number of other officers was exchanged.
In 1864, for meritorious service, he was
commissioned by congress as brigadier
general by brevet, upon recommenda-
tion of ‘General Grant, and was mus-
tered out of service in J my, 1865.
Since the war, although much re-
duced in health, General Noble has
followed his profession and filled vari-
ous public trusts. _
’AtHartford he was chairman of the
military committeeof the house and a
member of the committee on ceremon-
ies at the unveiling of Governor Buck-
ingham’s statue in the capitol. _
General Noble was energetic, active
and enterprising, and in every walk of
life he was honorable and distinguished
and as a citizen and soldier he bore
himself above reproach. ,In his family
he was the most lovable of men and
only those who know personally of his
domestic life can appreciate his entire
character. - ’ .
Generosity and hospitality were prom-
inent traits of his character. and he
was endeared to a wide'circle of friends.
He cherished the recollections and as;
scciations of the service as sacred mem-
ories to be shared by all who had
known them, and was beloved and ad-
mired by his assOciates of the army. '

public. .
:‘There is no possibility of the queen
being restored,” said he, “that matter" is
settled for good.”
He scouted the idea of Canadians taking
up the cause of Lilioukalani.
Members of Thurston’s party said that
Minister Willis and his wife Were avoided
by many at the islands. Their acquaint-
ances were but few, and the leading
families had ostracized them entirely.
“Had the United States government at-
tempted to land troops and restore the
queen,” said one of the party, “there cer-
tainly would have been bloodshed; Liliou-
kalanf would have been shot.” '
.Mr. Thurston was asked if the queen
was revengeful.
“She is an old savage, with a. venus of
civilization,” he exclaimed. ‘,‘Mr. Willis,
I believe, has stated that she refused to
grant amnesty”,
“Is the provisional government a stable
one?” was asked. "
“Yes sir, the , government is there to
stay until a stronger power drives it out,
that can do it. There are about 1,500 men
in the army. Mr. \Villis laughed at the
idea of the Japanese and Chinese resi-
dents of the islands being a bar to annex—

that Mr..Willis was about to return to
this country on the Corwin.
Mr. Thurston thinks that the United
take possession of the islands without
meeting armed resistance. The desire
for annexation. he says, is growing
stronger every day.
While Mr. and Mrs. Willis were unpop-
ularly received on the islands, continued
Mr. Thurston, it is not because he is a
representative of the American govern-
ment but because his mission to Hawaii
is an unfortunate one, his demand for the
restoration of the queen being‘ antagnostic
to the political views of the people.
“They are as anxious for annexation
today as ever but they will not endure
seeing the queen restored. I do not think
there is any question, however, but what
the United States marines would have
been fired upon had they attempted a
landing after the announcement of Mr.
\Villis of the intention of the government
to restore the queen.
“Mr. ‘Villis realizes his unpopularity
and will probably ask to be recalled if
the government does not do so of its own
accord.”
“The restoration of: the queen is an im—
possibility. The next line of succession
is her niece, Princess Kaiuinni and after
her, Prince David.”

Rumor That Witness Muller Bee

NEW YORK, Jan. 19.——If a report :circu-
lating through thegeneral sessions build-
ing be true, New York will he treated to
It is possible the public
will soon heal-the last of the Meyer case.
Carl Muller, alias August Wimmers, the
informer, who was the principal witness
for the prosecution in the trial of Dr. H.
C. F. Meyer, for the murder of Ludwig
Brandt, ~ alias G'. H. M. J. Baum, has
grown tired of his long term of imprison-
ment in the house of detention, and with
a view to securing his release’has‘ entered
into negotiations with the prisoner’s
counsel. ‘ That Muller has entered into
correspondence with Dr. “'illiam J.
O’Sullivan, hue of the lawyers for the de-
fense, is certain. This much is admitted
by the doctor himself. Dr. O’Sullivan is
in possession of a large number of letters
and other documents from Muller, which
may be made public. Although Dr.
O’Sullivan would not enter into the de-
tails of these communications, the Tribune
says it may be safely inferred from his
manner that Muller’s information ap-
pears to be such as to put an end to the
trial and make Meyer a free man, as far
as the charge of murder is concerned.
According to the story it seems that
Muller has completely retracted from all
his former stories, and is \villing'to admit
that théy Were false, and that they were’
concocted partly for the sake of his own
preservation and partly from motives of
revenge. Mere than this. however, cannot
be known until Dr. U’Sllllivan publishes
the correspondence. '
Fighting for Her Children.
PARIS, Jan. 19.—The hearing of the
action of Princess Colonlla, step-daughter
of John W. Mackay, the American mil-

Maitre Dabuit, the advocate for the
princess, was absent, and his junior asked
the court to grant, a further adjournment.
The solicitor for the princess handed to
the court papers supplementary to her
previous demand. She now asks, if the
court admits Prince Colonna’s plea that
it has no jurisdiction in the case, for an
order giving her provisional charge of the
children, the order to be maintained until
a. definite judgment shall be given.
Did Mrs. Maybrlcl; Attempt Suicide? .
WASHINGTON,‘ J an. l9.-—-Unoflicial in-

with the imprisonment of Mrs. Maybrlck,

husband, in Liverpool. The report comes
from government sources in London, but
appears to have been carefully concealed
from publicity there. The story as re-
ceived here has it that Mrs. Maybrick was
discovered bleeding profusely and that
she claimed to have had a. hemorrhage.
The prison officials, however, reported to
the government that she had deliberately
cut herseg internally with glass.
Rumors About Sicily.
ROME, Jan. Ills—Rumors that were cur-

fect calm prevails now throughout Sicily.
