WsinvoTOX , July 13. A report on the
harvest prospects iu Franco and Europe has
been received at the state department from
Commercial Agent Grifllu of Limoges ,
Franco. The National Millers' association
of Franco , says the report , has just Issued an
estimate of the probable wheat harvest for
Ib'Jl. The necessary supply of wheat for the
year's consumption In Franco is 1 3,000,000
hectolitres. The estimated yield Is SV'o.OOO
hectolitres. This is 31 per cent loss than last
year's yield.
ItuSsiu , Tunis , Egypt , Uoumanla and some
Danublan provinces will hive fair harvests ;
In Hungary It will bo below the average this
year. Estimates given by millers are
optimistic. They deslro to create the Im
pression that there is n bettor supply than
really exists because they want to buy grain
ns cheaply as possible In those countries that
have abundance to export. In IS'JO ' , 17,037.737
acres wore sown witl. wheat and the average
yield was li.7 ( hectolitres per acre. In con
clusion the report says that not only Franco
but all Europe is looking to the who it fields
of the United States. Last year many hoped
that south America would help supply tha
deficit , especially the Argentine republic ,
but today no mention Is inndo of those
countries ; nil hope is built on the United
States' harvest. The fact Is that the broad of
Europe must come from America.

Bourbjn ( bnvontlon ,
CAMP3EITS ENEMIES AFTER HIS SCALP.
Lawyer Klltto ofClorol md Thought to
Uo a Mtroiij ; Candidate Ar
rival of Many of the
O. , July ia. Tno delegates to
the Ohio domoornUu convention nro rapidly
congregating from all sections of the state ,
and ns the decisive day draws ncaror Interest
In the event deepens with every parsing hour.
It is now conceded by all the neutral nnd un
prejudiced that Governor James E. Campbell
will bo ronomlnated for governor on the first
ballot. His opponents' Lawrence T. Neal
of Chlllicotho and Virgil P. Kline of Clove-
land. Up to this tlmo Neal has been his prin
cipal competitor , the only apparent following
of Kline being the Cuynhogo county delega
tion , which was instructed for the Cleveland
lawyer largely ns it matter of county nnd city
prido. But the leaven of politics works queer
results and the Kline boom In a few brief
hours has assumed n proportion Which makes
that gentleman apparently the only formid
able opponent of Governor Campbell.
The logic of the situation lias compelled the
nti-Campuoll men to combine under the
'banner of "Anything to boat Campbell , " nnd
the question with them is no longer which of
the governor's competitors has the moit
votes , but which is the most nvnllablo candi
date , the mo it likely to succeed ns a dark
hone. To this query there is little division
of sentiment. Klliio is absent on his way to
Europe , too far away to give pledges nnd
promises , and his pronounced low tariff con
victions nnd eminent campaigning qualities
mark him ns the most available candidate of
the opposition since the fond engendered be
tween the IMcal and Campbo'l ' lactlons gives
thu former llttlo hope of increasing his
strength in the convention.
Mr. Kline bus managed his campaign with
consurnato diplomacy. When his homo
county instructed for him ho received the
news jocularly and gave no evidences of
being an earnest aspirant for gubernatorial
honors. On the contrary ho was on terms of
the firmest friendship with both Campbell
and Neil , the leading competitors , and ono of
the most ! > erious charges which the absence
of the Cuyahoga candidate makes it Impos
sible for him to answer is that he recently on
boparato occasions pledged his support to
both Campbell nnd Noal. Ho has left a
letter , however , with Major W. W. Arm-
btrong of Cleveland , which will bo reau in
the convention Wednesday , declaring his
willingness to servo his party if selected by
the convention as the candidate for governor.
It now looks as though the antl-Campbell-
itos , when nominations are declared in order
on Wednesday , will ask for an informal bal
lot , but that the governor's friends will op
pose this and demand business and a formal
ballot. In this ovcnt Cambell will bo found
before the roll is closed to have three-fifths
of the votes of the convention. But the re
sult will not bo announced without many
changes. The Ncal men , It Is understood ,
will , , with the consent of. tneir loader , desert
their candidate nnd go solidly to Kline In the
hope of creating a stampcdo of lukewarm
Cnmpbell delegates to the Cuyahoga county
candidate and Insuring his nomination. If
the logic of iho situation docs not lumpen to
suggest Mr. Kllno as the most available can
didate the strength of the opposition may bo
thrown to either Goiiorul John A. McMahon
of Dayton or Hon. Thomas L. Johnson , the
Irto trade congressman of Cleveland. De
spite all these clever political manoeuvres ,
however , the indications are that the Camp
bell phalanx will remain practically un-
hrokeii and that tbo governor will bo nomin
ated on the first ballot.
"In my opinion , " said Chairman Norton of
the democratic state central committee to
night , "Campbell will bo nominated on the
lint ballot. Thq opposition will endeavor to
combine ou Kllno or McMahon or some other
dark horse and try to force a stampede , but
they will bo unsuccessful. The people have
hpokon and Campbell nhcady has the dele
gates , and the result of this convention Is
now a simple question of addition and not of
enthusiasm. "
There are candidates for various state of
fices to bo nominated , out the chief Interest
nnturallv centers in the governorship. If
LieutonantGovornor M. V. Marquis of Logan
coanty expresses himself as not desiring n
ronomination tjie result may be the placing
of the tariff reformer , practical farmer and
ox-congressman , John Quincy Smith of Clin
ton county , on the ticket for second honors.
Mr. Marquis could , it is probable , have a
rcnomlnatlon without opposition , but having
had the honors there Is some doubt whether
lie will seek the rcnominatlon. Financially
iho place Is not to bo considered worthy of u
contest nnd the honor therefore Is the only
allurement for the ambitious gontlcmcm of
the state.
For attorney general John W. Canary of
Wood county nnd State Senator Corcoran nro
the principal candidates. The former has
been considered ns n prominent candidate
for several weeks , while the latter was only
recently sprung for the placo. Today John
P. Bailey of Putnam county arrived and tak
ing up quarters at the Hollonden also an
nounced himself as n candidate for attorney
general , so that the contest for the office
promises to bo a very lively ono. Ex-County
Auditors T. B. Pocklnbaugh of Wayne , Dan
iel Kunsnt of Detianco and Hon. W. M.
Muiso of Franklin county nro mentioned for
nomination for auditor of state , and others
nro likely to come out within the next twen
ty-four hours.
' G. S. Ackorman of Mansttold seems to bo
the lavorito for the treasurorshlp since the
declination of Hon. W. W. Armstrong of
this city , but It \inllnoly that ho may
find several gentlemen contesting for the
plnco before the time nrrives for his nnmo to
bo presented to the convention.
Prof. C. C. Miller , the present commis
sioner of common schools , Is ono of the men
having n sure thing. Ills nomlnntlon by ac-
clalmatlon is conceded b.r nil ,
Bosides.thoso mentioned above , candidates
are to bo nominated for supreme judge , mem
ber of the board of public wonts , and food
and dairy commissioner.
The platform upon which the coming battle
will bo waged is the subject of much discus
sion , and Chairman Norton of the state cen
tral committee nnd other prominent politicians
of the state have held several conferences ou
the subject. It has been decided that the
party will stand by its position of a year ago
on nil loading issues. The Campbell admin
istration will bo commended and the Harri
son national administration and the Fifty-
first congress danounccd for profligacy and
extravagance. The tariff plunk , it is under
stood , will bens follows :
Wmlemitnd the reduction of tariff taxes
and will continue to battle for tariff reform
until thu oauie of the iivoplo la triumphant.

Tomm , Kan.'July lt ! , [ Special Telegram
to TUB BKI.-.J A mass meeting of the preach
ers of the city was held this afternoon and
stops taken to arouse the people to the en
forcement of the prohibitory law. The
pinachors have awakened to u realization of
the fact that Topeka H now the only city lit
the state which makes oven n pretense of en
forcing the prohibitory law , and the Investi
gations of the Women's Christian Tompor-
nnco union have shown that oven iuthis city ,
the drug stores have In n largo measure
taken the place of the saloon.
The ministers had before them n
number of affidavits filed with the
probate jndgo which show liquors
have boon "signed for" under the Kansas
law. It was discovered that a half-dozen
men had procured either beer or whisky
every day in the year.
Ono witness had strangely enough alter
nated the complaint for wnlch ho doslrod
whisky and beer. Ono day It would bo for
fever and the day lollowing for n bad cold.
Resolutions were adopted calling upon
Judge Elliott for his resignation. The com
plaint against Elliott was that when ono of
the ministers appnviebed him to remonstrate
ngamst Issuing license to so many drug
stores ho was told that the ministers had
bettor attend to their own business.
The resolution declared that several blocks
in the city were devoted to drug stores
which were nothing short of saloons. .

ST. Louis , July ID. The Baumun-Massn

watch trust had gene to pieces under the
action of the Illinois anti-trust law. The
watch trust was thn jobbers' association of
manufacturers of American watches and
comprised every large watch case manufac
turing concern In the country. The dissolu
tion was caused by the withdrawal of the
Elgin company , which , being an Illinois cor
poration , was amenable to the new law.
This was followed by the withdrawal of
others until the trust crumbled out of ox-
Utcnco , The dissolution was also hastened
by the withdrawal and suit of the Joseph
Fahy watch company recently , which suit
exposed the Inside workings of the trust.

Putis , July 13 , There was considerable
uxcltumont throughout Paris caused by the
report that President Curnot had been shot.
This rumor proved upon investigation to bo
untrue , but there was foundation for the re
port. The president was juvuont today nt
the ceremonies at the ofllclal opening of a

Suddenly n man , wild-eyed and making In-
anne gestures , forced his way through die
crowd and brushed past the soldiers on duty
about the spot where the ceremonies were
taking place. This man walked up to the
carriage In which the president had driven
up to the new avenue and fired n pistol nt M.
Curnot. Just ns hu did so the man shouted ,
" 1 will see that there will bo no moro bastilos

President Unroot was undoubtedly alarmed

his life , but ho wns unhurt nnd soon
