Sun.A, Aug. ao.— Tile liritish forces on the Afghan frontier are being kept in a constant statu of excitement, ow ing to the activity of the rebellious natives, and fight after fight has been reported during the past three day*. The powerful Arakar.i tribe of hiilmcti has joined the rebellion, and with tho Afridls and otiier tribes already out the situation ia decidedly serious. No one would be surprised at news of a disaster to iiritish arras at any mo ment. Over 10,000 firitisli soldiers are now in tile fluid, but this number (hies not appear sufficient to cope successfully with the brave, hardy and wily hill men, and urgent calls for reinforce ments have been sent to other parts of India, while it is possible that troops -----7 y«t have 40 to asked for from Europe. in At me lacna ffovcmiuvuv that the oincer of Afghanlstart lias guilty knowledge <4 the uprising, 1* he )ia» not Inspired it, 1» shown by the fact that a second letter has been sent to him calling for specific answers to certain specific questions and w»»n. ing him to avoid all generalltf'es and protestations. A very serious static of affairs pre vails at Quetta, Beloochlstan. There is little doubt that if the fort there is, attacked the garrison will lie put to death. The fortifications are practi cally worthless and the place is said to be inadequately manned. Another note of alarm, and a rather incomprehensible one In view of the gallant defense made in i lie cases of Forts Ali-Mujid and Lundi Kotul, Comes this morning from .lamrud, from which place a dispatch an nounces that the British military au thorities yesterday deemed it wise to disarm the Khyber rifles, forming a part of the garrison of that place. REBELS MAY HE STARVED OUT. Los pox, Aug. ?,o,—It is probable that pending offensive operations by the government forces in India a blockade will lie enforced against the Afridis and Arakuzls, who aro largely dependent upon India for their food supplies- Tills, it is thought, will tend to compel them to come to terms. The military authorities suggest that after the trities have been punished the occupation of a single fort called China, in the Bazaar valley, would re strain the Afridis forevci, since they would be obliged to puss under the walls of that fort every six months when migrating from tlic valleys to the hills or vice versa.

CHANDLER CONFESSES Tall* (lint* the Kitr* Canadian Daly W»» I mpiHfd. Bostox, Aug. 30. — In a letter to the Herald benator William K. Chandler explains tho construction of the clauso of the new tariff law imposing a ten per eent extra duty on nil foreign products coming through Panada to tho t’nited States. Senator Chandler holds that the legis lation was passed by writing it an new matter into a conference re port, where It was adopted by both houses of congress without lieing noticed by more than those persons engaged In the scheme. Tho senator points out that fhe conference com mittee went beyond its power* when It inserted this important amendment into a clause of the law about only five worm of which the tSenatc and House hud disagreed. The wording so much affects New lCnglnnd's trade, Henstor Chandler says, that each one of her senators and repr sentative* may be fairly called upon to state what, if nnytlting, he knew about it, aud why he did not expose aud try to defeat it. Continu ing. Senator Chandler says: “For myself, I regret to say that 1 did not notice what the conferees had done. Having hail experience with conference reports, which should have warned me to read every word of this report, 1 have no excuse to offer for not doing so. I hope to tic forgiven by my constituents, but I shall never forgive myself.” TO IMPORT MINERS Coal Operator! 4r* Preparing to Me- | Mine Work.

One of the principal reasons for se lecting tiie Wheeling division of the Baltimore & Ohio Is the fact that men can lie brought in and unloaded in close proximity to the pit mouths. Another reason udvunccd U the fact that the mines along this road huve been supplying coal for the locomo tives of the railroad, arid if iroal is not furnished I’nited Ntates mail trains could not be run, and the wheels of the national government would iie In terfered with. Protection would lie forthcoming without any cost imposed upon the operators, as the government would be bound to protect and main tain its properly at its own expense. These plans have all been completed, and the work is well under way.

Wasiiixotox, Aug. 28.—For several weeks the department of agriculture has been busy gathering information concerning the wheat crop of the wo.'itC The results, obtained from both official and unofficial sources, show that, from present indications, the world mutt go hungry or eat something besides flour. The United Staten will be unable to furnish all the wheat that will be needed by foreign countries to eupply the deficit, even though the price jumped to 11.50 a bushel. It simply has not the grain. Kngland will nerd 180.000. 000 bushels of wheat, accord ing to the latest estimates; France, 48.100.000 bushels; Belgium, Holland and Germany, 88,000,000 bushels; Spain and Portugal, 10,000.000 bushels; Italy, 28,000.000 bushels; the West indies, Chluu and Hrn/.ll, .77,000,000 bushels, or a total of 412,000,000 bum els To meet this demand an Increased weekly importation into Kurope of 720.000 bushels over the imports of last year will be required. During the last cereal year the wheat growing countries of the world exported to all countries 45,000,000 bushels less that the estimated requirements for the next eleven months. To supply this increase of 720,000 bushels a week a heavy demand will be made on the United State* and Canada. At least 740.000. 000 bushels will ho called for. Canada can supply the 40,000,000 and the remainder falls to the United States. The crop in this country will, It is thought, bo about 500,000,000 bushels For home consumption and for seed purposes 275,000,000 are re qaii'C'*' This leaves but 125,000,000 bushels to bWWl demand for 200,■ 000,020 busrtiels. The department of agriculture will soon make public Its figures on thl* year’s wheat crop of tho It will say In part that* linking one coun try with another, tlio deficiency, as compared with an average crop, will be very large. Such Importing coun tries as Great Britain, France, Uer •nnny and Austria will have occasion tn Imnast muesli ww.Su ftiun 11*11*1 IV 11 i 1 At the exporting countries, outside of the United States, will lie able to eon tribute much less than their usual supply. Russia. Hungary and the Dan ubiun aud Italkun principalities have alt less than average crops, the deficiency being very large in the principalities named. The Indian crop, harvested last spring, was nearly M per cent below the average, and though high prices may draw away a part of the scanty supply, the eon .ribution from this source must neces sarily be small. The wheat exporting countries of the Southern Hemisphere have less than usual, and their next harvest is several months away. FOREIGNERS BUY AGAIN. European Dunisnd for ITIitat Puts tlis 1'rlces I'p. Chicago, Aug. 2b.—Foreigners were in the markets buying wheat again to-day, and prices advanced about us prickly as they went down yesterday. Hie Chicago December price was up t cent at the opening and advanced 3 ■cuts farther later in the day, sell ing between 01c and Ot '^c. There was a sharp break of 2 cents shortly after noon, but prices turned up again. The close, 03J*e, was 3c higher than yesterday. Nearly all the spec ulation was in December. Foreign markets were lower all around, but the decline there was not as great as the drop In this country yesterday, and the margin for export sales was 2 cents more than it was when wheat was at top prices Satur day. The day’s clearances were very large, amounting to nearly a million bushels. Foreign crop news was bull. ish. Cash prices at Kansas City very quickly followed the Chicago advance. Hard wheat was foilr cents higher than yesterday—in some eases more — and there was an active demand from all sources, (exporters who have been out of the market for some days were buyers. The offerings were largo, and the country movement shows no sign of falling off. _ Mora Vessel* for the North.
