Pres ident Debs of the American Railway union Is Issuing orders to strike In almost every section and they seem to be very generally obeyed In every direction. It Is claimed on the part of the railroad companies that the movement will culminate today and that tfic lessening of the trafllc on Sunday will cnablo them to organize their forces more cmclently. On the other hand , Sunday's rest will turn loose thousands of workmen in other lines and there are fears that the action of a few hotheaded men may result in great disorder. The situation nt Chicago Is sensibly worse today. The Rock Island road , which has been frco from disturbance up to this time , Is now completely tied up In all the adjacent territory. The stock yards , 89 far ' as receiving and distributing Interests nro con cerned , ure practically at a standstill , stop ping the movements of dressed meats out ward and live stock Inward. The Plttsburg & Fort Wayne Is crippled In , Its terminals and the Illinois Central suburban service , which carries more people to and from busi ness In Chicago than any other line , Is com pletely tied up. The roads which use the Chicago & Western Indiana railway as a terminal are suffering because of the strike on that line. These roads lire the Uric , the Chicago & Grand Trunk , the Santa Fe nnd the Wnbnsh. The Michigan Central and Michigan Southern are suffering some de lays , because they use the Illinois Central nnd Rock Island tracks for entering the city. The Chicago , .Milwaukee & St. Paul Is having great dltllculty In moving Its trains , arid , like the Wisconsin Central , Is under the ban of the American Railway union. The Chicago & Northwestern reports that It Is receiving and dispatching Its trains with Un usual regularity. A llko condition Is re ported very generally throughout.the west. No lifting of the boycott Is mentioned any where , whllo a number of additions to Its effectiveness .ro chronicled. At St. Louis the Terminal association , which does the switching on all of the roads , Is tied up and business Is blocked. There Is no Improvc'ment In the situation at St. Paul and Minneapolis , whllo mutters nre worse at Denver. The outlook nt Cincin nati Is' threatening. CALLED DOWN AT HAMMOND. The boycott at Hammond was ended nt 3 o'clock by nn order from the Chicago head quarters of the American Railway union to permit all trains to go until further orders. The men were Instructed to commit no act which will call out the mllltla. It develops that the holdups were voluntary on the part of the members of the local unions nnd no order' was ever Issued. The men arc crest- lullen at the turn of affairs , but will obey fully the order to cease hostilities. General Manager W. F. Merrill of the Chicago , nurllngton & Qulncy entered an emphatic denial today to the story that his road U contemplating refusing-'to carry Pullmans until the boycott Is lifted. The Post , summarizing the strike , says : , Vlolenco hns become the feature of the 'American Railway union's strike oji almost oil the roads centering In Chicago. Presi dent Debs , from his headquarters , talks peace , whllo his men nro 'derailing trains , smashing windows and stoning trainmen and passengers. The result Is that there Is a inoro complete tie-up than at any time slnco the strike begun. In ninny Instances no attempt is made to take out trains that are made up and manned , because of'a lack of protection for passengers a'ml cl WB. Hut there has been no weakening on.Uuupart of the General Managers' association ) " ft re alizes that the supreme test of sltcngt'li' fi s come , but It claims that the test Is now be tween the government and the rioters. It is ready to run Us trains when protection Is given them , and that Is u matter for the regularly constituted courts to attend to. It Is no longer n matter of handling the trains , but of preserving the pence , and Sheriff Gilbert and United States Marshal Arnold arc the ones who nre working to day. Doth admit that the situation Is crit ical and both claim to bo doing nil In their pcwer to maintain order. Iloth have sworn In n largo number of deputies , but both nro fearful that they may have to call on others higher In authority for assistance before to morrow morning. Sheriff Gilbert says ho thinks ho hns * - * enough men to preserve order ns matters , t now stand , but admits that the ttltuatlon Is cxtercniely critical and that ho may have to cull for troops If the trouble should epread. Marshal Arnold's Instructions arc that the mall trains must not ba Interfered with , nnd ho nays that It has got past the point whore the government Is.merely Interested in the running' of trains on the roads In the hands of receivers. Uncle Sum has Inter ests Involved In the strike on every one of the roads , and ho proposes to protect these interests at all hazards. Ha has brcti drnwn into thu trouble , nnd appearances Indicate that he Is going to take an active hand In the affair. The strike Itself Is spreading with startling rapidity , and Is almost every , hour accompanied by nets of violence. It threatens now to Include the elevated nlty railroads , although there Is no known reason "why the men on thonu roads should go out unless President Debs' Intention U to de clare war on the entire public. ROOK ISLAND MKN CALLIH ) OUT. Thu Ilock'jlaland strike , which wag prom ised yesterday , began this morning , when the local men went out , anu at 11 o'clock 1'rcnldcnt Debs Issued a Rtrlkc order to the witlro RoclT Inland system. This was preceded - ceded by riotous demonstrations at Illue Island last night , when switches were spiked ttud mo , > > ivna from their work , and * t Hnglewood this morning , The tie-up on this road In almost complete At present. The Illinois Central abandoned Its entire suburban > c.ervlco this morning , owing to the nets of violence committed last night. It Issued n notlco to the effect that It would make no attempt to resume until It was assured that Its passengers and trainmen would be adequately protected from riotous attacks. As a result of this move the Il linois Central presented tha spectacle of a road that was only running trains that had Pullman cars attached during n strike against the use of those cars , for many of Its through trains were sent out. The Fort Wayne road was tied up this morning , and the St. Paul will bo again tied up at 0 o'clock tontght. The strikers sny that the latter road has not lived up to Itn agreement to sidetrack Its Pullman cars , but 1s using them on Its air line. All of the switchmen are out at the stock yards , and the packers arc preparing to shut down. The Santa Fe reports that Its condition has not changed since yesterday , and the Ilurllngton Is engaging men to take the places of the strikers , and says It Is not badly crippled. The Haltlmore & Ohio reports that It Is getting all Its trains In and out , but that its engineers are Instructed to be cautious , nnd for that reason the trains do not arrive on time. TROUDLE AT CAIRO. Outnldo of Chicago the greatest trouble In Illinois is at Cairo In addition to the Illinois Central trains held there , the Dig "Four was tied up today , and none of Its trains can get through There hnn been Homo rioting there , -nd Governor Altgeld has expressed his willingness to send troops there as soon ns they nre called for by the proper ofllclals. A still worse state of af fairs exists at Hammond , Ind. , where a nTob Is In control. Troops have been asked for , but Governor Matthews gays he does not consider the situation serious enough to re quire their presence. The heads of both the. opposing forces are straining every nerve In Chicago. Debs has been In consultation with the lioailt of the Federation of Labor trying to got their support , but they have not the authorll > to order a strike even If they desired to. Ho Is confident , but not more so than Mi- . Egan , who represents the managers. Mr. Egan Is doing everything1 In his power teat at range for the movement of trains , the main object at present being to get protection for them. He has applied to Sheriff Gilbert for protection In some instances and to Marshal Arnold in others. The marshal has been called upon for deputies to protect the mail trains on every road In the city , and Is swearing them In and Is 'assigning them to their work as rapidly as possible. Instructions from Washington nre that the mulls must bo protected nnd that Marshal Arnold must see to It. The whole troubla has apparently begun a war of annihilation between the gc/ral managers and the American Railway union. Debs has nn. nounccd that ho Intends to. fight the as. , soclation and will not treat with any roa that remains a member of It. On the otlio hand , the managers , are saying that Deb * is fighting for his existence as a labor leader. That Is the only point at Issue to all appearances. General Superintendent Loreo of the Pan handle road received a dispatch while lr > attendance at the meeting of the General Managers association stating that striker * were tearing up the tracks at One Hundred and Thirtieth street. Ho at once took a special engine to the scene of the riot. . Mr. Loreo insists that the company Is not given adequate police protection at that point. The General Managers association Issued a call to the United States marshal for more deputies. At their meeting this afternoon the general managers considered the ques tion of arresting Debs and prosecuting him under the United States laws relating to the detention of the malls. It was flnall > decided not to arrest him , thus forestalling any claim to martyrdom. The Ann street trouble on the PanhnndK was participated by a brakeman drawing i. revolver when strikers undertook to Inter fere with him. The fellow was badly handled before ho was rescued by the police. General Superintendent' Loree , on his arrival at One Hundred and Thirtieth street , tele , graphed that the mob drove the station agent of Riverside from his olTlce Just na ho had summoned Loree by telegraph and then began n general demolition of the tracks. The station agent barely escaped with Ma life. life.The The Santa Fe ofllclals ireported today thai no trains are moving through Las Vegas or Raton. The management started n pas. senger train west from La Junta yesterday , but at Trinidad It was taken In charge b > n mob , the engineer taken up town nnd threatened. The fireman escaped by jumpIng - Ing from the engine before the train readied "the station. At La Junta u train , eastbound from Denver , encountered a misplaced switch ut tlo | , wcBt erd of the yard , with the switch staff tampered with so that the lamp showed white. Very little damage was dente to the train. At Chicago today switchmen and flrcmem refused to work with a yard brakeman hired to take a striker's place. Passenger trains are running practically on tlmo between Ln Junta and Chicago. The Southern California has not turned a wheel. The yard men employed In the Michigan Central freight yards at Kensington , with the cnglnerra of the switch engines , num bering about fifty men , struck at C o'clock. They refused to handle Illinois Central cars. The Michigan Central uics no Pullman cars. SEI55ED A PANHANDLE TRAIN. Superintendent Loree of the Panhandle wired from Rlverdale at 9 o'clock tonight that a mob has seized freight No. 70 , chased the engineer and fireman oft the engine , took the crew away from the train nnd put nil of them under guard. The mob then ran the train onto n sidetrack , cut off the engine and caboose and put the engineer nnd llrcmnn back on the engine , the crow In the cub nnd ordered them to pull out tiey | did not cara where , but to "get out of thcro , " saying they would kill any man that cama down there and wanted to run any trains whllo thu strike was on. River- dale Is practically In the hands of a mob without protection from the authorities. The Piinhnndlu fast trains from Cincinnati , New York and Louisville and Indianapolis are all In the hands of a mob. A special train has been made up to carry thirty deputy sheriffs to the scone , and It will reach Rlverdulc at ubout 11 o'clock. Serious trouble Is ex pected. The situation tonight Is worse than at : < ny tlmo since the strike began , and as a climax to U all , Chicago Is threatened with .1 tie up of nil the trades unions in tliw city. President M , II. Madden of the Stats Federation of Labor , nn organization to which practically ovcry labor organlzatlou In the city belongs , having fully 100,000 mem bers , uald tonight : "We nro In heartj. sympathy with the American Railway union and will help It In every way we can. " Th present program , as outlined by Maddeh , | s to c | l nut all met * on the elevated roads and employes of the street car companies U the strike U not iettl i yfllUln , K f > days. If It IB not fettled within a week tin Federation of Lnbor will go on a. strike. The American Railway union has had cmls. sarlcs nt work among the street cnr men for come tlmo nnd claim to be nblc to tl up the whole city. When nskcd what earthly object bricklayers , beer brewers nnd similar trades could have In striking , Madden replied : "Simply to bring more pressure to bear on the railroads. The general managers have combined nnd we must do the sama thing. " GENERAL MANAGERS' STATEMENT. The situation on the various roads re ported tonight by the General Managers as sociation Is as follows : Chicago , Uurllngton li Qulncy The freight engineers and fire men In Chicago held a meeting this after noon nnd sent n committee to the master mechanic and advised him that they had decided to go on a strike. Since then , how ever , 2f per cent of the men have advised the master mechanic personally that thuy will not strike , but will return to work. All passenger trains have moved with full pas- Esingcr equipments. Panhandle Route Mobs gathered nt Ada street and Curtis utrect and , nbused nnd stoned the men working the five switch engines nt that point. At 3 p. in. they as saulted and badly bruised Tom Kuhman on the passenger shifter. In trouble at River- dale. Wisconsin Central Outelde of Chicago there have been no defections to amount to anything outside of Chlppewa Falls and at points west. The total number of men now out Is In the vicinity of fifty , Including flro- men , brnkemcn , coal handlers and half of the Chlppewa Falls station force. Lake Shore & Michigan Southern A large number of Lake Shore & Michigan Southern switchmen arc on n strike , and n commit tee Is now endeavoring to secure a tlcup of nil the switchmen In Chicago nnd Cook county. The road Is unable to handle per ishable freight In Chicago. This Is a Wag ner line. Baltimore & Ohio The passenger trains of this railroad arc running with full com plement of equipment , including Pullman sleepers , without delay. Chicago & Northern Pacific Terminal Sys tem S. R. Alnsley , general manager of the Chicago & Northern Pacific says everything Is In good shape. Passengers and freight trains nre being handled promptly and with no Interruption. Chicago & Alton All passengers trains ol this road are moving with their regular equipment ! ! , Including Pullman cars , nearly on their regular time. Freight trafllc Is practically abandoned for the time. Atchlson , Topcka & Santa Fe This after noon the Chicago station freight handlers went out on a strike , although twenty-five of the men concluded to remain at work. They will ask Mr. Egan to give them forty freight handlers for service Monday morn ing and will get thirty additional deputy United States marshals assigned to the duty of guarding the freight house and protect ing the men employed. The following was received from Albu querque , N. M. : "Strike here on Atlantic & Pacific Is broken. The firemen all agree to go to work. " ROCK ISLAND TRAIN DITCHED. The Chicago , Reck Island & Pacific train No. 19 , outbound , after picking Its way suc cessfully over ihe city tracks this evening , was ditched by a striker at Dlue Island about 6:30 : p. m. Trouble has been feared at Blue Island all afternoon. The train was ma.le up with a Pullman car next the engine. As the engine approached the station at Dlue Island , James Murvtn , n striking switchman , rushed forward and threw the switch. There was no tlmo to stop the train , and the en gine and Pullman were thrown off the track. Deputy Sheriff Nlckerson at once placed Murvln under arrest. No one was Injured. About 2 o'clock this afternoon a numbei- of men In the employ of the Belt Llm > railway at Durnslde , where the road crosse\ the Illinois Central , turned the gates ncros. % the track nnd struck. The crossing la nn Important one and many trains pass each way every hour and before word could bo sent to the > Belt Line offices an Immense blockade was established at this point , while the gatemen stood by and refused to liberate - ate the accumulating trains. The blockade was finally raised by Trainmaster Warn > with some detectives and Captain Powers with a number of police officers. The mob was ugly , but offered no open violence. The Illinois Central Diamond special fok St. Louis , that left Chicago at 9 o'clock , liab been derailed at Grand Crossing by a'mob.

The South ern Pacific company scored Us first point over the strlkeis shortly after 1 o'clock this afteinoon , when Its southern overland tran , the New Orleans express , was successfully taken out of the Oakland yards. The train , which Included six mall cars , two Pullmans and several ordinary coaches , had been made up by General Superintendent Fillmore - more , Superintendent Wilder and ether division olllclals. The United States mnrshil and ten deputies were on board as guards. G. D. Clark , a. brotherhood engineer , and Thomas Fox , a nonunion steamboat fire man , moved the train , which passed down the yard and southward unmolested by the strikers. This temporary victory seemed to encourage the company ofllclals , who soon began to talk again ubout regular trains. However , the superintendents appeared ' ( . have exhausted their resources In moving the overland. During the day the com- I'uny maintained only an Irregular suburbat ecivlcc- . Trains came In and went out , but there wcro EO many desertions that no man could bo depended upon. U Is declared that the company has been ofrenng bonuses of $1,000 and promises of life employment to engineers who would remain loyal , but even this Inducement has failed. Such men as could be secured were sure to bo pulled down by the union , und , except for the one overland dispatched this afternoon , the blockade this evening Is as complete at all points as It was twenty-four hours ago. So far there has been no violence. In this city , however , 100 policemen are on duty In the yards of the coast divisions , and 100 more blue coats are In readiness to move nt police headquarters. The yards In Oak land are patrolled by deputy sheriffs. A rumor current hero this afternoon that General Manager Towno has asked the gov ernor to send state troops to Oakland to preserve the pcaco cannot be verified. To night the Chamber of Commerce of Oaklind and other commercial organizations of this city are endeavoring to arrange n conference between the American Railway union leaders and the Southern Pacific management. They hope to effect such a settlement ot the trou ble us may result In the moving of malls and freight.

( Copyright 1S94 by the Associated Press. ) BERLIN , June 30. The tragedy at Lyons by which France was thrown Into mourning for her chief magistrate still absorbs the at tention of the public and Is the main subject commented upon In the- newspapers through out Germany. The attitude of Germany to wards France under these exceptional Con ditions has been the subject of much Inter est. It was at llrst Intended to send a member of the Hohenzollcrn family to rep resent Emperor William at the funeral. Hut certain questions o'f precedence could not be settled to the satisfaction of the court here , hence Count Von Minister , the German ambassador at Paris , was Instructed to lay a wreath upon the casket containing the re mains of the late'president. . Then um brage was taken In some quarters at the fact that the ( own council of Berlin went out of Us way In order to express sympathy with Franco In her bereavement. The fault finders especially reared In their com plaints at this action upon the part of the municipal authorities to the neglect of the municipal authorities of Paris to take any action upon the deaths of the late emperors , William and Frederick. . The report that the government had drawn the attention of the government of France to the fact that the safety of Germans In Franco was Imperiled by the anti-foreigner feeling aroused by the fact , that the assassin of President Carnet ws\s \ a foreigner Is un true. On the contrary Count Von Munster was Instructed to express } , entire confidence In the energy and lability of the French government to avert , any excesses. The conservative pr ss Is agitating the revival of exceptional -anti-socialist laws. In this connection the Nriiste Nachrichtcn lias unearthed a , letter wrtten | by Prince Bis marck In 1ST8 to a subordinate olllclnl complaining ' plaining that the niu'-Boclallst bill , which was then about to ,1:0' : Introduced Into the Ilclchstafi , fell far shnritlihisAvvlfliej. . hij. prlnco added that he tvould 'dismiss them from public adieu w'ithqut a pension and In addition he would deprive socialists of all political rights. Such drastic measures are Impossible nowadays , but the publication of this letter shows the drift of opinion in cer tain quarters. GERMAN ANARCHISTS SENTENCED. The two anarchists , Shohr and Doering , were today sentence.d each to a year's im prisonment for delivering Ipccndlary speeches In this city on May day. In connection with the anarchist move ment a startling rumor has reached here from St. Petersburg. It says that the czar recently found upon his table a document which set forth that sentence of death had been pronounced upon hl'm , and that the" sentence would be carried out within twenty- four hours. This document was signed : "Tho society for the liberation of Russians ) " The czar found upon\fio dressing table In his dressing room a sltuil with the word "Alexander" Inscribed ujion the frontal bone. Up to the present time nil the resources of the Russian police have proved Ineffectual to discover how the document and the skull were Introduced Into the palace , or to find any clew to the persons , connected with this attempt to alarm the czar. General Tschererevln , who was'In charge of the Im perial palaces , and who .was responsible for the safety of the czar , has since been dis missed from his post. , It is stated all the Imperial servants since the discovery of the "sentence of death" and the skull have been replaced by old soldiers" . As time passes the , mysterious story sad ! to be nt the bottom of , the arrest of Count von Kotze , the masUrj of ceremonies , who was suspected of writing the long series of anonymous letters whch ( have ca'uscd so much disturbance and annoyance In the most aristocratic circles for the past four years , Increases In liitcre.it. Since Von Kotze's ar rest anonymous letters'of a nature similar to those which caused suspicion to fall upon him have been received by members of the court circles. The rewlpt of these venomous communications has been Increased , and It is beginning to be btlleyed Von Kotze Is the v'ctlm of a mean Intrigue. lie has rejected the offer of liberation ) which was made him , and Inslstb upon , , .remaining under arrest until tbo scandal Is completely cleared up. WILLIAM ST RTVS MONDAY. Emperor William , according to program , will leave Kell carlj ; on Monday and will arrive at Stavonge'r , Norway , on Tuesday. He will not leave Norway until the -end of the month , when he ( will go to England , In order to act as spontscKyfor "IJaby York" and to attend the Cawqsf regatta. All the Berlin Jjctjr houses except fifty- eight have now Beenboycotted. , , There Is no sign of a compjromjso' between the brew ers and the socialists. Prince Bismarck's \ Jicalth Is now better , and he has promised-to receive a deputation from the provinces' ' upon his arrival at Varseln , his summer Jtuiue , at the beginning of July. .

TODAY'S DKMONHTUATION AT PARIS Will Fhoir , on n Magnificent Seute , llmv tlio Nntloit Mourn * ! aill-C rmit' Ucittlt PARIS , June 30. Throughout the city nnd nil over France preparations arc about com pleted to demonstrate tomorrow thd affec tion and repect which the people of al classes had for the late President Carnot. It Is believed that the outpouring of the people , the decorations and the floral trib utes which will be seen tomorrow when the remains of the assasilnatcd president are carried to the cathedral of Notre Dame and from tlicncc to the Pantheon , will be greater and more elaborate than have ever before been witnessed here. In fact , li would seam that the people have determine ! to make the funeral of M. Carnet n dem onstration against anarchy as well as n tr.buto of deep respect to the dead chlcl magistrate. These demonstration ? , how ever , are entirely calm , but are the more effective for they show that France really mourns her loss and Is deeply Incensed nl the outrage on the part of the blood-stained dUclplcs of anarchy. So far as the political situation Is con cerned , It seeing to be finally determined that M. nurdeau , who was offered the premiership and who persisted In declining that honor , has decided to accept the pres idency of the Chamber of Deputies. It Is also asserted onJAf. Burdeau's behalf that he was obliged , ( ij the advice of his physi cian' , to reilmiulsfr the task cf forming n cabinet. On the. other hand , M. Dupuy , after con sulting with his colleagues , Informed Cas- Imlr-Perler this morning that he had con sented to remain premier. It Is believed , however , that the cabinet will be reorgan ized. ized.M. M. Goron , the chief of the detective force , has resigned , and his resignation Is said to bu due to the fact that he has been severely criticised for not keeping a better guard over the late pre'ldent and for not having obtained some track of the anarchist con spiracy which resulted In the murder of M. Carnot. That the assassination was a deep laid plot which had long been dis cussed and planned by the anarchist con spirators there U no longer a question cf doubt. In addition to the facts already cabled to the Associated press showing that the actual murderer had accomplices , a dl-patch from Marseilles announces that a soldier detained In the military prison at that placJ , upon hearing of the a sasslnatlon of the president , gave the authorities full deta'ls concerlng the plot which was hatched at Cette , and also furnished the names of seven anarchists , who , after the executions of Valllant and Henri , drew lots In order to decide which of them was to kill Sadl- Carnot. The lot fell to Santo Caesarlo. which now seems to bo the real name of the a-sassln. Caesarlo Is described as having betn "wild with Joy" when he found that he hwl been selected to commit the murder. HAWAII'S I OUIITII OL'.IU , Y. Thnt rny.WIHL'In.u K < JrcitMilestone In thu HONOLULU , June 23 ( via steamship Aus tralia to San FranclSco , June 30) ) . The con stitutional convention has been meeting for the last few weeks and has made a num ber of changes In the constitution as pro posed by the executive council. One of the most Important of these changes Is that the property qualification of senators has been reduced from $3,000 to $1,500 and , the Income qualification from $000 to $ COO. The more radical members of the convention objected seriously to this , claiming It will permit Kanakas to become members of the upper house. It has been decided to declare the provisional president , S. B. Dole , president of the new republic without the formality of a vote. It Is claimed that If this Is not done the royallbts would take almost any oath In order to obtain the right to vote for the president In the hope of electing their candidate. The ex-queen ha become fearful at last that the United States does not In tend to reinstate her. She sent yesterday protests to all foreign diplomats hero re questing them not to recognize the new re public , claiming she was the only lawful ruler of Hawaii. All of the foreign repre sentatives liavo returned the protests un noticed to her , with the exception of J. II. Wodehousc , the English minister. He , It Is said , will probably recognize her claim , as ho is said to be an ardent royalist. The new constitution will probably bo adopted on the Fourth of July. Preparations are now being made to make that day 0110 uf the greatest In tha Hawaiian calendar of holi days. A few days ago the crew of the United Slates steamer Philadelphia was brought ashore for battalion drill. The next day the captain of the English man-of-war Champion asked for the same prlvllnge and It was re fused him. No reason was given for the refusal and the government officials refuse to talk of the matter , but It Is generally supposed that alleged discourteous treatment of the British minister , Wodehousi > , toward this government Is at the bottom of the affair. .

Outlook Now U fur u Vluhl Alio\o the Av- enirre. TOLEDO , June 20. During the past four days C. A. King & Co. have received replies from 3,5Sfl reliable grain dealers and millers. They coxer almost every Important wheat county In the six principal winter wheat states , which generally produce about ( two- thirds of .the winter wheat crop and nearly half of the total wheat crop of the United States. Two thousand , four hundred and fifty reports cover 272 of the larger wheat producing counties , while 1,130 are from the less Important. The outlook now Is for n yield above the average. Ohio has the best and almost an excellent prospect. Out of 720 reports from there only twenty-two report the outlook far below an average. Illinois , Michigan and Missouri each have a good prospect. Reports from Kansas are very Irregular , and the crop there will be below on average. Some bay the prospect Is the best In years , while others say , | t Is a. total failure. Out of 127 which say the outlook Is for only half a crop or JiSsslOti .are from Kansas. < > ' the total reports , 958' say the prospect f ' excellent ; 1.6SG ( jood ; sixty , nn average crop ; 186 , a trifle below , and 109 , n poor crop. Each of the six statss promises better than a year ago. Illinois and Kansas have an Increased neVeage , and will have materi ally more than the short crap of last year. Missouri has recently shown an Improve ment , and but for the small acreage would have as good a crop as In 1892. Quite a number of counties In each of the states say the prospects are the best In several years , and some say It was never better. Only 136 reports say the prospect Is any worse than a year ago ; 1,062 say It Is about the same ; 1,196 a trifle better , and S62 much better than n jenr ago. Quality will be excellent If the crop Is secured as It now looks. All of the states say that It promises to bo better than a year ago , except Michigan , where many say It Is too early to Judge. Illinois , Missouri and Kansas had only an average quality last year. Mlscotirl shows the greatest Improve ment. Of the total rcpr.'s only 28 say the quality will bo much worse than a year ago ; 195 say a trifle worse ; 1,133 about tha same ; l,2f > ! > a trifle better , and 7CS much better. New wheat will not commence , to move much earlier than last > car. One hundrcJ and four say the last of June , hut most of these come from southern Kansas and Mis souri. Five'hundred nnd thirty-eight say the first weak of July ; 1,129 the second week ; 913 the third week ; .155 the last week , and 474 In August. Receipts of new wheat here before the middle of July \\I11 be small. Fully as many fanners are disposed to sell freely early as a year agj ; 1,481 say they will sell freely ; 400 say they are com pelled to sell ; 71S fay about half will sell , while SSti'pay they will not sell at present prlcei. There is more disposition" to sell In Illinois , Indiana and Missouri than In Kan sas or Ohio. There is somewhat less old wheat left In the Intel lor than a year ngo. Only 262 report a trifle more , nnd 98 of these arc ! n Ohio. One thousand and thirty-six cay thcro In about the bnmo amount nn a year ago. Thrro hundred and twenty-seven say an eighth less now ; 432 a quarter less , 170 n thlid less ; G15 a half less , and 072 none left. Clover beed now promises to bo about an average rrop. Lost year It was a larger one. especially In Ohio. A quarter of the reports fay It Is too early to Judge , as much Icpends upon the weather In the near future.
