Hard hitting won yesterdays game with
the Rochesters. Nineteen base-hits for
Washington and only for the visitors de-
cided the contest. Shaw's curves were de-
ceptiye and the Rochester boys were unable
to do anything with them. Eight errors were
made by each side. There we're no passed
balls. Start made his first appearance with
the home nine and put out ten men, but
the sold Reliable" did not score his usual
errorless record. Up to the sixth inning the
game was interesting but then the Wash

The Chicago Inter Ocean estimates that
fully one-fourth OF the buildings which
were in prospect in that city this season
will not be erected owing to the uncertain
condition Of labor and says that builders
and laborers who are not out Of work before
the season is half over will be fortunate.
The Journal Of the same city notices a
phase In the building situation there that is
worth attention. 1t says that a number Of
men proposing to build houses came to the
conclusion that they would either have to
abandon their projects or buy land at a
price low enough TO make the entire invest
ment no greater than originally estimated.
They made lower offers for land upon which
to build, but they were not accepted, the
owners saying that strikes would not affect
them, because men cannot strike against
the soil.

FROM THE dispatches in this morn
ing's HERALD we learn that the wheat
yield for 1886 is likely, on the whole. to
exceed that Of 1885 by some seventy
eight million bushels, while the yield oil
oats will be some twenty-nine million
bushels less than it was last year.
There will be some eighty-three mill
lion bushels more winter wheat than
was raised last year, and about five mil
lions less spring wheat, the latter hav-
ing suffered considerably from drought.
The corn crop is very promising. Tell

THE PRESIDENTS vEroEs.

President Cleveland's free use of the
veto preroga:ive will make him terror
to the special pension workers. Up to
date he has vetoed ninety Of these spe-
cial pension bills. and as the vetoes of
all former Presidents aggregate but 100
the probability is that the present ad-
ministration will &c down in history as
the great veto administration. And
yet 565 of these special pension bills
have become laws, so that it would ap-
pear that Cleveland is not unwilling
that old soldiers who, in his judgement,
are justly entitled to pension shall be
denied one. Representatives. ckson from
Pennsylvania yesterday accused the
President of being in sympathy with
the party opposed to pensioning the
Union soldiers who exposed their lives
to save the life of the Union; but that
charge will not hold good upon an ex-
animation of the cases in which the
President has interposed his veto to
their passage. And from the fact that
565 of these special pension bills have
become law, it would appear that the
Presidents po;icy-as the Florida Times
Union puts it's millions for the gen.
uine disabled soldiers of the Republic.
but not one cent for perjured swindlers
who are trying to get on the pension
list through fraud"
