Drouth Iu France.
Washington, Oct. 14. Reports to tlio
agricultural department show a decline
in the conditions of all the principal
cropg, except cats, rye and barley. The
detailed summary shows a -widespread
reduction in the condition of potatoes,
duelargely to drouth. The mcst serious
complaint of the potato grower this year
is the low price of the product, particu
larly in the northwest. The report
from the department's agent for "Wis
consin and Minnesota represents that in
tke;latter state the tubers "do not pay
for' digging." He states that the yield
is eaormous.
Sweet potatoes have suffered quite
seriously from lack of rain and their
condition lias been- materially reduced
ii niany states. In roveu it has fallen
from 10 to 22 points.
Rye General average condition, 90.3,
a decline of four points, due principally
fcT drouth.
"Hops The product of hops is returned
at 86.9 per cent of a full crop. The
quality is generally very good, except in
"Washington, where the louse and mold
have done material dninage.
V-Smgar Cane There is a very general
falling off in condition, due to drouth.
The effect of the severe winter is seen
iii stubble cano fields. The prospective
crop is much under that of 1894.
".Sorghum This crop seems to have
wffercd but little, but in Virginia low
conditions east of the Blue Ridge re
tfce the general average to 80.
Apife The continued drouth, hot
weather and hot winds cf September,
causing premature ripening and drop
plug, have resulted in a loss of over two
points in the average condition of
apples.
European Crop Itoport.
Washington, Oct. 14. The general
conclusion in the British cereal trade
that the wheat harvest of the world for
1805 is about 100,000 bushels less than
hat of 1804, is announced in the report
'of "the British agent of the agricultural
"department for October. The report
ja&ds: "It is known, however, that a
greatly reduced quantity is being fed to
;gtock, leaving about the same quantity
for humr.il beings."
" The estimate of this season's wheat
crop in the United Kingdom vary from
to 27 bushels an acre. Both in Great
Britain and on the continent the wheat

$3,000,000 bushels. All of the other crops
' ;are suffering from protracted drouth.
, Germany The wheat crop is esti
5ated at 104,000,000 bushels, a rcdnc
' Titfou from last year of nearly 7,000,000
bushels. The potato crop is believed to
be over the average.
Italy The wheat crop is officially es
timated at 103,200,000 bushels against
jll8,400,000 bushels last year. A poor
'medium crop of corn is expected.
Spain The wheat crop is officially re
Sported at 92,000,000 bushels. It is not a
jupring crop.
Bulgaria The continued and persist
ent drouth is reported to have done
great injury to the corn crop, which, in
some districts, is said to have been
totally destroyed.
Hungary Cora crop irregular but sat
isfactory.
Roumania The wheat crop is excep
tionally abundant.
Greece The wheat crop is unexpect
edly short. A decrease of 5J0 per cent is
expected.
Russia An average wheat crop is ex
pected. The rye crop is fine and heavy.
tost 17o Pounds Iu Weight,
Cheyenne, Oct. 14. Annie Grovcr,
who died at Laramie of starvation, had
no nourishment for over two months,
except a glass of water. From 200
'Twunds in weight she wasted to 75
pounds. A most extraordinary circum-
stance in this connection is that the
alimentary canal failed absolutely to
perform its offices for 10 weeks prior to
death. Local physicians regard the
case as one of the most extraordinary in
medical annals. She lest the power of
t speech two weeks ago, and made herself
understood by signs. Sho apparently
suffered no pain. Sho was a half-sister
of Sarah Althea Hill-Sharon.
Vast Falling Off In Cuban Trade.
New York, Oct. 14. Mr. "Way dell, of
"Waydell & Co., steamship owners, in
commenting upon the .vast-falling off of
New York's trade with Cuba and the
consequent -withdrawal of several steam
ships frcm the Cuban trade, said-today:
" We used to ship large quantities of
machinery and provisions especially
canned provisions to Cnba. bnt now
most of the Cuban factories are silent
and there is only a call for machinery
repairs., I may safely say that New
"York's trade AvittiCuba has fallen off
over $1,000,000 a mouth since the insur
- rcctipn bcgan."f

PAB2TEBS HOtDES'G THEIR WHEAT.
Coax re Grain Plethora In the Northwest
ern Market.
Duluth, Oct. 14. There is no doubt
that northwestern farmers are holding
back their wheat on account of low
prices prevailing -and marketing their
coarse grain instead. For several days
past the receipts of wheat in this mar
ket have fallen below those of last year.
Receivers 6ay that offerings are daily
growing lighter, and daily sales here
support the statement. On the other
hand there has been a more than
corresponding increase in coarse grains,
though of course the daily reports of car
inspection do not show as large a total
for all grain receipts.
Of course it is not reasonable to fear
that the wheat movement will continue
relatively small for any length of time.
Farmers who are averse to selling their
wheat for ruling prices, and have coarse
grains to sell, will send the latter to
market now and hold the wheat, for the
reason that ojarse grains command rela
tively much higher values in this mar
ket than wheat. There is the further
reason that flax cannot bo held in tho
stack as wheat can -with safety from
damage by the elements.
Grain men believe that the heavy
movement of coarse grains will be prac
tically over before the loth cf next
month and the early closing of naviga
tion is likely to spur shippers on to
make inducements for a larger move
ment of whea during the first half of
November if the market should demand
it, which is entirely likely.
PLANS OF THE VAXDEtBILTS.
Rumored Move to Secure Control of the
Overland and Central Pacific.
Chicago, Oct.d4. The Tribune says:
Ever since the famous traffic contract
was made between the Union Pacific
and the Chicago and Northwestern rail
roads whereby the former secured the
right to dictate the through rates from
the west to Chicago, and the latter
through rates from Chicago to points on
the Union Pacific west of Oniaha, rn
mors have been current that the Yan
derbilts would sooner or later secure full
control of tho Union Pacific property.
A plan for the reorganization of the
Union Pacific is now in course of prepar
ation, and the preliminary steps already
taken indicate beyond a doubt that when
the Union Pacific gets out of the hands
of receivers it will bo controlled and
operated by the Chicago and North
western, wliich is cue of tho Yanderbilt
reads.
The most startling rumor which has
lately gained currency is J"hat the Yan
derbilts look still further than the acqui
sition of the Union Pacific and the Ore
gon Short Line. Their great aim and
object is raid to be the control of a line
through to San Francisco, and to gain
tliis end it is said they are now negoti
ating with C. P. Huntington with a
view of securing control cf the Central
Pacific.
