Monthly Crop Reports.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-There has been
good deal of cross-firing for some time
past between Mr.. l.. II. Seamans, secretary
of the NIillers' National association. and
Mr.. j. r. Dodge, the statstician of the ag-
ricultural department. Mr.. Seamans objects
to the statement of any estimate of the
probable crop yield III the monthly reports
of the agricultural department. which, he
says, should give simply ''the percentage
of the crops as compared with former years.''
In an interview telegraphed from Milwau-
kee to New York paper, the secretary of
the Millers' association is quoted as saving
on yesterday that there is no question that
the actual crop of wheat in 1884 largely
exceeded the government estimate, and
Ill other ways endeavOrS to throw discredit
on the government figures. Mr.. Dodge
being questioned about the matter to-day
stated that the estimate he had made of
last years crop had been very generally aC-
cepted by those who are supposed to be the
best judges of accuracy in such matters. 1t
was adopted by BradStreetS and other pub
locations of like reputation. The latest eS-
innate of the agricultural department puts
the probable crop this year at 357, 900, 600
bushels, and the people who agree with
Mr.. SeamanS estimate it at $50, 600. 900.
Mr.. Dodge says that one fruitful source OF
error on the part of those who find the esti-
mates of the agricultural department too
large is the basis ON which private calcula-
tons rest. They take the acreage as re-
ported by the state assessors, and it is
found by careful inquiries made for the
agricultural department that the assessor
returns generally vary from to
IL per cent. under the actual acreage. This
was shown by the census returns of 1880,
and is confirmed by other information. a
considerable part of the next monthly re-
port of the agricultural department will be
devoted to Il review of the evidence that this
returns Of assessors are not trustworthy.
Commissioner COlman of the agricultural
department is to deliver the annual address
at the Wisconsin state fair at Madison on
Sept. or Sept. 10 and II. He will attend
the meeting of the American Pathological
society, which is held in Wisconsin this
year at Grand Rapids. Sept. Is lie is to
speak at great Virginia fair at Falls
Church near Alexandria. Fitzhugh Lee and
John 4. Logan being ether features of the
program the same day. Sept. % he will
attend the forestry congress at Boston, and
on Oct. he expects to be in st. Louis to
remain through the fair week.

an Alarming Scourge.


WHEELING, w. Va, Aug. SO.-A tele-
gram from Sycamore, Clay county, says
every hour brings the sad intelligence of
more victims OF a fatal scourge that is rag
ing on Sycamore creek. Over twenty deaths
have occurred out Of thirty-five or forty at
tackled and the disease is rapidly spreading.
At first il was thought TO be flux. but il
is ROW believed TO be another and more
fatal malady. A vague. horrible fear has
begun TO fill the breasts of some stbe
symptoms are alleged 10 be very much like
cholera. Justice Lie Moore has buried
three sons, and three more are reported dv-
ing. The reports from the region attacked
are meagre. but most alarming.
