THE ARKEAIUi DILL.
LONDON , August 13 , In the house
of lords to-day , Lord Carlingford : ,
lord of the privy seal , moved the
adoption of the amendments of the
commons to the house of lords amend
ments to the arrears bill.
Salisbury mid the object of his
amendments to the bill was lo pro
vide against Injury to landlords who
had solvent tonanta. Ho believed , ho
said , the bill was a public blunder and
tint it would not bo a final measure.
The bill without a provision requiring
the assent of landlord would bo most
pernicious and an act of simple rob
bery. The peer * , ho atldpd , who as-
sistcd in passing his amendments con
sidered it not advisable to reject the
bill. lie therefore would now chul-
lonpo a division. Salisbury added the
conservative peers at a meeting at his
residence to day , decided by an over
whelming majority , that , in view of
the state of affairs in Ireland and
Egypt , it was not expedient to reject
ths arrears bill. Ho snid ho was not
of that opinion , but ho found himself
in a small majority.
All ro-amondmonU of the commons
to the arrears of rout bill were agreed
to , after Karl of Limerick and the
Marquis of Watortord , conservatives ,
had added their protests.

that nothing would occur to mar their

course the men had adopted and an
nounced that 180,000 will bo imme
diately distributed , n'nd that any griev
ance would bo immediately inquired
into. Hia statement was enthusias
tically received and the men expressed
complete confidence in his assurances.
The grievances of the constabulary
were in reality a demind for an ad
vance of ono shilling a d.iy in pay , in
creased allowances to married men
living out of barracks , and an equali
zation of pensions. The disaffection
was greatest in IMuustcr and Con-
naught , where the constables have soon
pretty severe service during the last

0,000 correspondents , give estimates
covering tlio entire producing nroa of
ever 1,500 principal agricultural ipuu-
tics in the United States upon the
conditions of most of the crops now
growing. The condition of cotton
has improved the past month' , The
general averAge advanced froiiiMM ! to
94. This is higher by three yoiuts
than in August , 1870 , and lowr * by 8
than the August average of 1880) ) also
2 points lower than at this date m
1875 , and 1 lower than in 1878 , but
higher in the five other years since
1872.
1872.Wheat
Wheat returns for August rolivto to
spring variety. Ita condition in higher
tlum : for several VI-IUB. It wag 88 in
1880 ! and 81 in 1870 und 1881. It is
now 97 , against 100 lust month. ll is
somewhat late , but nearly ready for
harvest at the date of returns. There
are some indications of rust and
blight in parts of Minnesota. In
Northern Iowa the crop is hold to bo
tin beat Biuco 1877. .Returns from
Dakota and Nebraska are favorable.
The gbiiorul averages of the principal
status are as follows : Wisconsin , 90 ;
Minnesota , 98 ; Iowa , 03 ; Dakota , 99 ;
Nebraska , 103 ; Colorado , 90. It is
quite probable that the product of
winter and spring wheat , without loss
by sprouting after harvest , will slightly
exceed 500,000,000 bushels , but exTh
truvagant estimates , which assume 15
to 20 per cent , moro , are wild arsunipngi
lions needlessly tending to leduco
wheat in the hauds of farmers.
The special agent at the department
of agriculture , London , cabltji' to-day
that : wheat in England promises an
average crop of good quality ; in I < Yan.i ,
a medium crop , MiglitJy damaged by- "
rain in the blooming period ; in Germany
raimi
many , recent heavy rains have de
teriorated the quality of a fair abund
ance of the product ; llussia and Aus
tria , an avorauo crop , and in Hungary
15 per cent , above the average. The
European outlook is favorable for a
medium product , with some reduction
in quality.
The condition of the corn crop is rep
resented by 83 as against 77 last your.
At this date in ' 81 the eflect ot ihe
drouuht was aeon in the reduction of
13 points in the general condition
during July , followed by greater de-
toriorotion in August. At the prosy
ent time circumstance s are favorable
for farther improvement in most of
the states. The averages of southern
states are nearly above 100 , The surw
plus of producing states averages as
follows : OhicrTT , Michigan 78 , In-
diana 78 , Illinois 59 , Iowa 70 , Misp
oouri 91 , Kansas 100 , Nebraska 98 ;
Now England ranges from 87 m Masni
sachusotls to 90 in Connecticut ; New
York 85 , Pemmylvaniu 90 , Now Jer-

THR DEK was thn first to announce
the rumored alliance of the Union
Pacific and Chicago , Milwaukee it St.
Paul roads , by which the former
would scouro a through Chicago-Den

"Thoro is a minor that an alliance
is to I bo formed between the Union
Pa and Chicago , Milwaukee & St.
Pa , so as to give the former road a
through line from Chicago to Denver
ns a stand-off for the Chicago , Bur
lington Quiiicy's through lino. "
The Tribunes Omaha corrosponnu
dent , who is always posted on railroad
nlFiiirs here from headquarters , says :
"There is well defined
a rumor cur
rent in railroad circles here that the
visit of GoiicrtI Manager Merrill mid
General Superintendent Clark , of the
Chicago , Milwaukee it St. Paal road ,
to this city was occasaionod by nego
tiations between their road and the
Union Pacific looking to an alliance.
If carried out this will give the Union
Pacilio a continuous line from Chicago
to Denver , and enable it to wage a
stiff opposition to the Chicago , Bur
lington & Quinoy. "
Will the railroad editor of the Her
ald continue to deny the alliance
longer ?

The telegraph informs us that there
is to bu another turn of the screws in
ilt
the freight extortion from which wo
have so long been suffering Freights
by Panama have hitherto been lower -
than by rail , but an edict has been in-
eued that all goods sent by the Pacific i
Mail shall hereafter come by the over
land roadt ) . The news which receive
ceive is to the effect that the last
steamer which loft Now York for the
Isthmus took little fruight for China
and no domestics. The contracts with
traiiBcontinol shippers includes all
freights to San Francisco and beyond ,
and in view of possible inteiruntiou i of
tralllc by the SUCK zanal the railroads ,
wo are informed , havocnnoludod tliuy
must pay u higher rate , and have ,
therefore , advanced the tariff from
SIB to $18 per ton by steamer to15
by rail. Naturally , Now York mer
chants are indignant , nud are canting
about for moaua of relief.
Thin action could originate only
with the ownera of the Central Pacific
railroad in this city. They control the
freight tnulio from Panama to Son
Francisco by steamer , and own both
the nloaiuihip Hues from this port to
China. Nothing could bo done with
out their co-operation , and very littiu
in the way of overland freight ex
tortion is done unless at their
mujgcstion. It is Homotimoa veno
out from the ollices at the corner n
Fourth and Townsend that the kno
of magnates who there register the !
edicts are innocent Jamba led to the
slaughter by a terrible ogre known aa
E.Ur P. Vining , frcighl agent of the
Union Pacific. They nrer that they
would gladly brine frciffht at n low
rate to San Francisco morehants , but
Vining forbids. As for the infamous
contract system , they would never
have attempted it except for Vininp.
Vining evolved this plausible chemo
of invitation inlo the railroad par
lor from his inner consciousness
,
and the trembling Stubbs
, repro-
Bonding thodcopnbasomcntof Messrs ,
Iluntinplon , Stanford and Crocker ,
was obliged to accept it. Even now
they would give it up , but Vining for
bids. All now freight schedules , in
tended to crush out merchants who
have a woxknosfl for shipping around
Capo Horn , are fratrroa by Vining ,
whoso fiendish fertility in that kind of
Invention , we are given to understand ,
is without parallel in thn history of
railroad management , Tilling is the
ine.xoriablo Jerkins , who sits in some
inaccessible back ofiico , refusing to bo
placated and of ad adamadtino nature
that never yields.
To anyone who knows the- methods
of the gentlemen who manage the
Central Pacific all this is tie purest
invention. It is a tale for marines ,
and not for San Hancisco merchants.
Beyond the fact ttat Mr. E. if Yin-
ing is n gontlomnn of insinuating
manners who labors under tha hallu
cination that Hairvlut
was not n
woman , and that Shakespeare knew it
all the time , there is not the slightest
reason for the iiuput-ition. ThoUn
ion Pacific could not jregulnto freights
to San Francisco if it desired.
It never dictates to < the Central
Pacific. The giant monopoly of Cali
fornia would not suffer luch distatiou
for a moment. Purhupn now and then
the more gentlemanly portion of1 its
has intervals of moral distress , during
which it is apologetic. At other timoa-
it is wont to boast , throu/jh / C. P. Ilun-
tington , its chief mouthpiece , that it
controls $300,005,000 ot capital , and-
that ityill either control the North
ern Pacific or break it. AHthoohanjo
in rates made by the four lines which
connect Chicago with Omaha are
made by Mr , Stubbs under a general
order from his masters It was <
Stubbs who , under a Chicago alias ,
raised the rate on hardware
from that city to San Francisco , last
May fiO pur cent , in order to dragoon
certain dealers in hajdwaro and agri
cultural implements in this cily into
making , contracts. And ho succeeded ,
for , of the half-dozen firms then ship
ping around the Horn , not one to-day
darus to bring a pound of freight to
San Francisco except by rail. They
are ( not compdlled to enter into a con
tract , says Mr. MopliistopholoaStubbp.
QJ , no ! There is no compulsion about
jt. But when n man who must now
and then replenish his stock speedily
by rail to- keep his custom finds that
his . neighbor is getting the same a <
ticlos nt ono-fourth the rate , and
that as much is charged for hi'a-
small shipments as the shipment cf
his , entire otook would cost under con
tract , ho knows ho is in danger-of
ruin and is obliged to yield. If a
highwayman puts a pistol to a trav-
owr's head and says , "Your money or
your life , " the traveler is not obliged
tj , put his hand Into his pocket and
dfraw out his puraa and other valua-
bws. Ir toniU > f doing this vojjmtarj-
nJ it ho can give his life. There is no
compulsion about it. So with-tho
San Francisco merchant. He need
not sign a contract ; ' lie can bo ruinod.
It is perfectly simple and exquisitely
logical. There is no tyranny in the
case , but thn most admirable forbear
ance i and the amplest liberty of
action I
ucot As n alight relief from thia mon
otonous raising of freights , wo have
from Chicago a faint intimation that
tlM Chicago , Burlington and Quinoy
railroad company contemplates build
ing west from Denver to the Pacific
count. The plan ia not n now one , ,
and there in uomo possibility that it
may some day bo realized. It ia an
organia.ition : quite , ts powerful as the
Central Pacific , and h the only ono
on , the continent that the latton-
fears. The merchants of Dnn-
vor have for many years ,
been Buffering from the extortion of
the t Union Pacific what those of San
Francisco are now enduring from the >
Central Pacific. No sooner hud the
Chicago , Burlington it Qaincy reached )
that city than , without solicitation ,
and as ono man , the injured shippers ,
took their business from the company
from which they h.id endured so much , .
and gave it to the new comer. It was
o simple act of justice from which our
own Monopoly might learn a useful
lesson. 1
