P;BLISHED EVERY THURSDAY AT NEW BERR Y, S. C. A BIG SCHEME. The Farmers' Alliance Ask the Wheat Growers to Hold Back the New Crop Till Prices Are Booming. CHICAGO, July 7.-A great scheme has been devised by somebody within the Farmers' Alliance. It is proposed to withold this year's wheat crop from market until the farmers can get their: own price, or at least a price consider ably above the average. The plan is unfolded in a circular of advice through accredited official chan nels to all members of farmers' organi zations in the United States. It suggests a great combination of the 6,000,000 members of farmers' organizations, and has the relative importance and force ofan official order for a strike among the 1,000,000 members of the Federa tion of Labor or the 500,000 members of the Knights of Labor. The circular, which is presumed to be a secret docu ment, is now ready for mailing, and it will be sent to the 2,000,000 members of the Farmers' Alliance and Industrial Union, the 1,000,000 members of the colored National Farmers' Alliance, the 1,000,000 members. If the National Farmers' Alliance of the North, the 800,000 members of the Farmers' Mu tual Benevolent Associatiuon, the 600, 000 members of the Patrons of Husban dry, the Patrons of Industry, and the 150,000 members of the Farmers' League. The circular is in part as follows: "The Farmers' Alliances demand unanimously that the speculation for future deliveries of cereals shall be pro hibited. The greatest competitor of the farmer is the speculator. The specula tor sells for delivery in any month of the year, and, therefore, makes it un cessary for the actual consumer to lay in such stocks as he may consider reasonably sufficient for his require ments. The farmer comes in with actual grain and finds most of his cus tomers supplied by the speculator who I promised to deliver. He has no choice but to sell to the elevator man at a lower price. "It.is competition between grain and wind, in which the wind had the ad vantage, as the wind crop is never short. This manipulation has robbed _ the farmer of this country of $300.000. 000 in the last three years. This year seems especially designed by Provi dence to help our farming interest. Our wheat crop promises to be good. The European crops are worse than they ever have been, and the reserves are exhausted. Under such circumistances it is certain that the true value of wheat was greater than ever before, and it is astonishing that speculators should dare to bet on low prices. This how ever, explains itself for the following -reasons: During the four years from 1884 to crops being in excess ot the demand and during the last three years this same speculation has been carried on by cheek, and did not result in disaster only because there were resources to draw upon. This success for seven years has made the speculators think that they have discovered the philoso pher's stone, and that betting on low prices can always be made to earn them money. "There is no doubt that they wvould ruin themselves by persisting in that policy during the year, as the condi tions are entirely reversed; but if our crop rushes into the market right after harvest, there Is the danger that most of it will have been sacrificed before the specuiation for low prices is broken. There is, however, a remedy, simple, efrective and entirely within your con trol. The stocks of wheat and fiour are hardly large enough to supply the wants of this country until the new< crop comes in. If for some reason the rush of new wheat should not come as early as anticipated the market for 1 this crop would start in with double the price you have obtained during the last few years. Could you not act as if early harvest had been prevented, and couldI.you not I for once avoid undue haste in supply ing the speculator with the means of keeping down your prices? Resolve, for instance, that in view of the condi tion of the wvorld's crop a minimum price of $1.35 for wheat in New York is moderate and conservative, and that members of your organization pledge themselves not to market their wheat at lowver prices unless they are under contract, and that they will use their a best efi'orts with friends and neighbors I outside of the organization also to act o. your resolution. Resolve, also that the~ 3tate Alliance form a committee whi: shall keel) itself posted about the ' state of the world's market, and from time to time notify the farmers of s changes taking place, and advise them upon the minimum prices that they ' may reasonably insist upon." The circular gives lots of figures and statistics to prove that this scheme would be feasible, and dilates upon the f money made on the transactions in futures by speculators. Farmers are told to hold back even when better prices than those suggested are offered they are warned that when the circular is made public speculators will answer by floods of news from all parts of the .. wvorld, alleging improvement in crops, declining markets and abundant sup-. plies.I EThe State Board of the Alliance, the farmers are told, wvill keep them in- 9 formed with reliable news. Thue circular '2 continues: "This action would be similar to a strike, but with this difference: the workingnan loses money every day a the strilke lasts, while you do not lose anything, and if some should be inconi veniencedl for a feW weeks for ready cash, they wvill surely~ not be poorer by The authors of the circular says ther tl feel confident that most farmers w:l. heed their advice and then witLi on;, with the assertion that the minimum . drice they s":gest is not at all unreason able, and that the speculator would[ certainly want 32 if he had the say. By holding ofiand marketing gradually the farmers are assured they will soon SUICIDE IN BATTLE. The Peculiar Story Told by a Veteran of Gettysburg, [From the Atlanta Constitution.[ A group of old soldiers gathered in the rotu -da of the Kimball House yes terday v:ere telling stories of field and camp during the war, when one of the number gave the following graphic ac count of the suicide of a Federal officer on the field at Gettysburg. "It was there," said he, "I saw a Federal officer, chagrined becaume nothing would stay the retreat of his men, raise his pistol to his head and blow out his brains. It happened on the second day's fight. Gen. Longstreet had just come up with part of his corps from Chambersburg, Pa., and vigorous ly assailed Sickles' corps, which he was driving back in great disorder. Sickles halted and formed his men in line to receive Longstreet's onslaught. "It was one of the few times I ever saw corps commanders at the front line. Sickles, with his staff, was riding among his men, encouraging them to withstand the Confederate assault, while Longstreet, with his staff, and Col. Freemantle, an English officer and correspondent of the London Times, were cheering our boys to the charge. "We advanced and gave the Federals a terrific volley at close range. They staggered under the galling fire, when Longstreet ordered us to give them the bayonets. As the men wavered and broke to run, an officer stepped to the front, and with his sword, sigr .lled them to come back. Again and ,gain he waved to his men, but by this time they were in full run, and the officer, in his angry mortification, raised a pistol to his head and fired. When Gen. Long street and Col. Freemantle rode up, they looked down at the brave Union officer, but the tide of battle swept us on."r A SIMILAR CASE. To the Editor of the Press: Your item in Sunday's Press headed "Sui cide in Battle" reminds me of a suicide I witnessed at the first battle of Frederitksburg-it was at Franklin's crossing, below the city. We had the pontoon bridge nearly across when a line of the enemy's skirmishers drove us from our work, and were themselves in turn driven away by our artillery po-ted on the high bank behind us. Just then an officer on the other side rode down into a garden near the river, and our men commenced to fire at him. He waved his hat and commanded: "Stop that firing!" Every one from th:.t supposed he was a Federal officer, who had made his way down from the column, which we supposed had crossed above, so we waited breathlessly to bear the news. Except for the rattle ar.d boom a mile above you could have heard a pin drop; then he waived his bat around his head and shouted: 'Hurrah! hurrah! .hurrah! for Jeff Davis!" I should think a thousand idies cracked at him, but he roce di etly round in front of us (the river is very narrow at that point) and up over he rise then back around again,. mak r g tbree circuits, but , as i rcdedfr Lp the rise, he had "fi-om his saddle to the horse's 1aunches. When we got across we bund him dead-a Confederate captain UNITED STArTES ENGINEER. New York, July 6. Feeling His Way. [From the Chicago Tribune.] "Nellie," he said, with a kind of ex ermental, immature, early home ;roiwn smile on his anxious face, "I-I -ay count on you as--as a friend, may "Certainly, Alfred," she replied. "As-as a good friend?" "To be sure." "You have no objection to looking m me as-as a distant relative, per 1aps?" "No, I have no objection to thb t." "Second cousin as it were?" "I am willing to be your second ~ousin?" "Or first cousin once removed?" he >ersisted, mopping his forehead with a rembling handkerchief. "And I might as well be a first cousin nightn't I?" "Yes, I suppose so." "Do you feel, Nellie," he went on, astily swallowing something large nd buoyant, "as if you could be-a-be -sister to me?" "No, Alfred." * * * * ** * * The invitations are out.

A Pen Picture of One Who Represents a Species of Queer and Quaint Philoso phers and Shrewd Critics. [From the Palestine (Tex.) Advocate.] He walked silently in. We knew him the moment we raised our eyes and saw him standing there. In fact, we had been expecting him; he nearly always comes when we are in just such a strait and needivg him. He always wears the same style of clothes, coat of one kind and pants of another ; he hasn't any vest; bis shoes are worn out and run down at the heels and his hat is battered and dusty. There are spots over his waistband and his new paper collar is the only fresh, white thing about him and it looks as though he had just put it on with soiled fiu gers. He is pale, weak-eyed and pre maturely gray-haired; he looks as though he had never known regular hours, either for eating or sleeping and he must have come thousands of miles and been coming ever since he was a boy. His starting point was so far away and so long ago that he has almost for gotten when or where it was; but we an idea that it must have been when his mother buttoned his little blue shirthand around his white, boyish throat, put on his little white hat, and sent him to work in the printing office. How proud he was when he went home that first night and showed his new brass rule, and tells mother he had learned all the boxes, and has a free ticket to the circus next week, and the editor gave him a big piece of wed ding cake, a part of which he had brought home for the baby, and if he sets up a column in one day next week he can go fishing on Saturday. Yes, somewhere about there was the com mencement of his long journey, and here he is now, perhaps two-thirds on the way. He asks: "What's the show for a sit ?" We give him a case, and by and by he says he feels faint, and asks if we can't lend him a quar ter, he hasn't had any breakfast yet. We know his weakness, and, as we need his work, we go down him with him and order some breakfast for him at the nearest restaurant. When he conies back he looks hap. pier and better able to work. In the evening, when he goes to distributing his case, he reconuts the history of his late places of employment. He knows the circulation and amount of business of ,very paper in the State, and just why the Dispatch suspended, and why the Advocate sold out to the Courier. He is well acquainted with the un known editor of the Thunderer, and has friends on the editorial force of all the leading journals of the country. By and by he whistles low an air from the Italian opera, and in reply to a question he answers with a Latin quo tation. He stays j.Au4-week, and aiow"tb~1il e him more and more every day. He has read everything from Shakespeare and Rluskin to Mark Twain and Bill Arp. He knows more about our laws, National and State, than the best lawyers in the city. He if well acquainted with the life of every eminent person of his age, and is a per fet encyclopedia of enurren t events. But we cannot afford to keep him any longer, so we may pay him off, and again he starts on that long road that leads-not to home, for he has none ; not to the society of intelligent people like himself, for outside of the printing ffice he is unknown ; maybe back to ight work, on some city daily, or, if too worn and old for that, a rapid de scent from one country office to ano ther, with whiskey and laudanum for ompanior.s, to an unmarked grave by ome lonely wayside.
