ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. Nh

Without an efficient cooperation on
the part of others, the labors of this
Office would have fallen much short of
the success which il has attained. II
is only an act of justice to place ut the
head of these instrumentalities the i'm
pulse you have given in your official
action as Governor Of the State to it,
movements for carrying out the OBJ
Jects of the law, and the Judgment
with which you have directed it's meth
ods. The act establishing il places it's
operations more Immediately under
the control and supervision of the Ex-
ecutive than those of any other bureau
OF the government, and all its proceed
ings and expenditures are by his direct
authority. Whether il is successful or
otherwise, therefore, depends upon the
governor, and in carrying out its de-
tails your minute Knowledge of the af-
fairs and characteristics of the State.
and profound appreciation of it's pos.
sibilities, have been an efficient and
unfailing support.

occupied by Moses Rosenberg. His wife,
with himself and four st%ep-children,
We're asleep on the upper floors, and
were at once imprisoned by the

window, followed by two OF the children,
who were caught safely by some men below.
The cries of the other children being heard
within, the father was told to rescue them
and throw them out, but it is said he refused
to make the attempt, and at once sprung to
the ground himself, leaving Rosa. aged four
teen. and David, aged four, to perish in the
names. The adjoining grocery store of

ments also We're destroyed. The alarm was
not promptly given, and the fire was under

A Shortage Of $4,000, 900 Bushels in
the Estimated Wheat Crop.
H Nav II.

WASHINGTON, May II.
Following is a brief synopsis Of the Agri-
cultural Department crop report as to spring
and Winter wheat:
The May returns for spring wheat are low
er as compared with those Of April. This is
owing to frosts and a backward season. The
average as compared with April is II for
New York; Michigan, So; Ohio, 81, and Hi
nois, &c. There is a further loss from
the plowing-up Of large areas.
The reduction in Missouri is from SO
to so; Indiana, rs; New Jersey, 1o1-about
the same as April. All the remaining
Northern States show an improvement since
April. This is true of the Pacific Coast and
OF nearly all the Southern States-Connecti-
cut, 80; Pennsylvania, 95; Delaware, So;
Maryland, 80; Virginia, 81: North Caro-
lima, 96; South Carolina, 90; Georgia, 81;
Alabama, IS; Mississippi, 90; Texas, 81;
Arkansas, Sc; Tennessee, IS; West Vir-
ginia. 80; Kentucky, 81; Kansas, Oh; Cali
fornia, n; Oregon, II. This is an im-
provement Of fifteen points for California
and of seventeen for Oregon.
The average condition of winter wheat is
S31a, against so. The breadth of the pres
cuI acreage is ~ per cent. less, representing
a loss of $1,000, 600 bushels. Reports from
London agents show some improvement in
last month. A smaller acreage was sown in
England. In France and Germany rain and
higher temperature are wanted. There are
prospects of a reduced crop on the Continent
owing to frost and a reduced acreage. In
Austria Hungary there is a prospect of a
medium crop.
There was intense interest here to obtain
the crop report from the Agricultural De-
partment early in the day, but all attempts
to do this proved unsuccessful. The Com
missioner of Agriculture was able to prevent
any premature publication of the results,
and it certainly can not be charged
against the Department that it had any
completely in sto%ck-jobbing. The ex-
traordinarily backward season, the heavy
trosts, and the long-continued SHOWS had
created all impression that the acreage and
yield of spring and winter wheat would be
much less than it was last year. Some Of
the leading experts had placed the loss of
wheat at 100, 600, 600 bushels. While
the result is not so unfavorable as
these more discouraging estimates, still
the crop report shows a loss in win
ter wheat of n, 000, 600 bushels, and a cor
responding reduction in spring wheat. 1t is
to be noted, however, that the decrease is
not uniform; that on the Pacific Coast, for
instance, there is a gain of fifteen points in
California and seventeen points in Oregon,
but OF the whole the Agricultural De-
partment report seems to confirm the gloomy
views which have been entertained by
many.
