The an nual report of the secretary of agri culture deah at length with certain plan for thorough organization of the department anol suggests several new features in the interest of the devel opment of agriculture.

A striking contrast is arawn ue tween this amount and the apporpria tions for agriculture made by those countries, which, the report says, "are the most active competitors of the American fanners in the world's market." A comparison shows that Greai Britain appropriates for agri culture $1,150,000, Germany Si.hjO, 000. Brazil S2.000.Ci ). for agriculture and mines. France SS.000,000. and Austri i more than SC.000,000. The problem of getting the results of work done by the department more nronuitlv before the uconle has been solved bv the establishment of a new division, which furnishes promptly to the agricultural and commercial press a synopsis cf the main points of every bulletin ana report pulilisnea. .Sheep and wool icceive special con sideratiou iu the report.

Fort Ci'ster, Nov. 3. General Brisbane is having the exact spot on which each of Gusters men lell marked with a stake driven deeply into the ground. Yesterday iu set- tin? the stakes the men came upon the skeletons of four of Cutter's who had never been buried. Scout Campbell first discovered them. To day lour officers were sent up with orders to decently bury the men on the exact spot where they fell, and mark their craves. Captain French's company, tiow at Cutters battle held, erecting tomb stones over the uen massacred a at Fort Phil Kearney, in 18C7, will bury the Custer men with the honors of war, thus giving them do-ject in ttm.ent at last, alter thirteen years Cronp Can Be frcvrnleil. We v;iiit eveiy mother to know that croup con he pieventcd. There is no question aliotit this ; as it has been done in thousands of cases, and you may depend upon it that when a c.iild takes the ctdud it is wholly owm to the ncn'ijzence of 'its parents. True court never appears without due and timely warning; a few hours or a day or two before the attack, the child be comes hoarse. This hoarseness is the first indication of troup, and is a sure sin that croup is to follow, unless promptly and prop? i ly treated. The free ue of Chamberlain's 'ouh Remedv as directed with each bottle, under the heading ''To prevent croup," will d;cpel all symptoms of the dis ease. This first sign of coup, boat so ess, may be overlooked by jouuc moihers or those not familiar with the disease. Under such circum etarces, or when not properly treated, the hoarseness becomes more marked, and the child shows shows symptoms of bavin? taken cold, then a peculiar. rruh outrh is developed. Even at this stae Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy will preveut the croup, but after the couh has developed the crei p is liable to appear at iDy moment. The proper way is lo keep a bottle oi this remedy ai. hand, it costs but 50 ctnts, and only a few dosws, or at most not over a third of a bottle, is required to dispct sU symptoms of the disease. Ch you afford to risk 6o much for so little? There is not the least danger in giving: this remedy in large and fiequtnt doses, w4iieu are always re quired, as it contains no injurious substance. As proof of this fact we rfcr to John L. Olson, of Des Moines, whose 18 months-old uoy drank the entie contents of a 50 cent belt1 of Chamberlain's cough remedy without the least injury. Certainly it made the baby vomit very freely; but after takiair a nap he would have been glad to have d:ank another bottle of the remedy, as he liked it. A similar in stance occurred neai Valley Springs, Dakott. Mrs, Mattie Johnson's two-year-old daughter, Annie, drank a iu'l bottle of the remedy without injury. This remedy has been tke sole re liance of thousands ef mothers for crcap, and especially as a preventive lor nianv ycarss, and has never been known to fail. It is also invaluable for colds and whooping-cough. For sale by Foshay & Mason. Woodle'e Riverside Addition.

KXPENSKS FOlt ' THE YKAIi A Colored Man as Scond Auditor-League Havy Yard - Noble and Conrad - Kaval Vessel Contracts- Special Corrcs)oinlcnce. I Washington, uct. i ne resi dent made the first draft of his mes sage to Congress at the last Cabinet meeting, anil several hours were de voted to a discussion of it. There is no disagreement betwten the Presi dent and his advisers as to tne matters to be discussed in the message, but of course each of the Cabinet has ideas as to the best manner of piesenting certain things. It is probable that several other cabinet meetings will be devoted to the consideration ot the message before tba'. important docu ment is completed. Xnat it win De an able document cannot bo doubted. Secretary Blaine has completed his estimate of the funds needed to run the Department of State far the fiscal year beginning July I, 1890, It aggregates about $3 ,0tJ.CC i. Secretary TVindom nas appointed M. M. Holland, a colored lawyer, chief of a division in the Second Auditor's office: Secretary Tracy has received the report of the board of naval officers appointed to consider plans for the development ot tne .League island Navy yard, should Congress decide to have it re-opened. The report strongly favors the equipment of this yard with modern facilities lor build ing, fitting and repairing vessels, and submits plans for the purpose, with an estimate of the cost, $14,565,4S0. It recommends that the appropriation for the first year be 1,500,000. The desirability of a tint class navy yard on the Pacific Coast, is conceded by everyone familiar with the subject. Secretary Noble resents the impli cation that he removed C. F. Conrad, a special agent of the General Land office, who investigated the Benson land survey frauds in California, to please the men who has defrauded the Government. The man was removed because of charges made against him, Speaking of the removal, Mr. Noble said: "In a report made to the de partment he h.id charged Secretaries Teller, Schurz, and others, with com plicity in the land frauds, alleged that the active fieli partners in the great swindle were the surveyor gen erals of Dakota, Wyoming, New Mexico, Colorado and other states. In August last, Conrad called on mo and asked to be sent back to Califor nia as the land cases were to be called September 13. I told him then that I had no confidence iu him, and that I had no further use for him, as the United States attorney, who has charge of the land cases, had sufficient evidence to proceed with the cases, and his (Conrad's) testimony was not t.eeded. I also told him that his sus picion had become so large and uni versal that he had better hire a hall and exhibit it." If one may be allowed to judge from the number of bidders and the figures submitted at the opening of proposals for building three cruisers cn baturday last at the Navy depart ment, it looks very much like the charge made of combination among shipbuilders when bids were opened several months ago for the but. ding of these same cruisers, was trne. The first time there were only two bids. - one $175,000 in excess of the money appropriated for each of the cruisers, and the other aO.OOU in excess. 1 his time there are five bidders, all within the appropriation. The contracts have not yet been awarded, but it is expected that the work will be divided, one of the cruisers being built by each of the three lowest bid ders. Secretary Blaine's family will this week take possession of the historic old mansion opposite the White House which has been entirely refi ted since Mr. Blain leased it last spring. By the way, this seems a good place to say that the sensational accounts of trouble between Mrs. Blaine and Mrs. Harrison, which have several times recently been sent out from Washington, have not the slightest foundation. The two ladies are, and have been on the very best of terms for years. The new Pension Commissioner is not making much noise, but he is quietly and industriously striving to obtain a necessary knowledge of the workings of his office. He has done nothing toward deciding what is to be done with the men in the office who are charged with having had their pensions illegally rerated, but when he takes up that matter he will sift it thoroughly, and the guilty, if there be any such, will not escape.
