NEW YORK, July 3lst. - The
Pubtic, under the heading of "Grain
is King" referring to the fact that
the value of breadstuffs exported
during the eleven months ending
May last was eleven millions great
er than the value exported turing
the entire preceding y ear, says: 1t
was over $32,000,000 greater than
the value of cotton sent abroad this
year 50 far The increase in eX-
ports of breadstuffs lad been more
than $l02, 600, 900 in seven years, or
129 per cent, but during these years
there had been no increase in the
value of cotton exported. 1t is
scarcely an eXaggeration to say
that the American farmer is rapid
iy destroying British agriculture,
and making Great Britain depend
ent upon this country for her sup
plies of food. The recent debate in
Parliament was, in effect, a frank
confession that wheat grown in
Dakota can undersell in England
wheat grown within sight of the
very markets in which it is worsted
in competition.
who C,"srn,s the Oregon strnn-
ship Company?
NEW YORK, July 3l.-The Pub
lie, quoting the denial of the report
that the Union Pacific has obtained
control OF the Oregon Steamship
Campany, says: 1t did not strike
the people as very strange that
Willard and White, who had so re.
Gently closed the sale of the Kan
sas Pacific to Gould, should have
found occasion to interest them
selves in another undertaking with
him, but the Northern Pacific is
entirely certain that the Union
Pacific has absolutely nothing TO
do with the new company. Let 1t
be recorded that if it is not their
intention to secre by the new route
to the Columbia at Wallula, com.
plete line, independent Of the Cen
trail Pacific, the Union Pacific peo-
pie are less shrewd than they are
supposed to be.
Gh.rxss D,shouesty Against The
Chairman of the RepubIican state
Committee What GOrbam
KNOWS.
NEW YORK, July 3l.-A World
Washington special says: The
charges against Chairman Hatton,
of the Republican State Committee
of Iowa, of having used campaign
funds for his own purpose, have
aroused the attention of other local
committees and put them on their
inquiry. Gorham, who is now ac-
cused by the Administration of Op-
posing the Republicans Of Califor-
MIA because he failed TO receive
bureau Office here, testified before
the Wallace Committee to the
amounts of money sent by the
Congressional Committee last year
to different States. This lead to an
investigation of the charges
against Hatton. Now 1t is whis-
pered that other financial irregu.
larities against the brethren have
been discovered, and that all that
has been raised for the advance
ment of Republican principles has
not gone for that purpose, but has
been used to enrich good Republi-
can Chairmen. There is much sad
ness among the good, and much
swearing among the Chambers at
the development.

steam yachts lashed together and
containing pleasure party had
not proceeded more than twenty

Burkelow of Kirk wood and Miss
Hattie Pollock of New York.
