August increased condition may be MAIN
tanned though the chances are confessedly
against it. Making same allowance for this
probability a judicious and reasonable
Interpretation of the July report of winter
and spring wheat would show prospect for
an increase of about S0,O00,000 bushels above
the official estimate for 1885. Results of
threshing of winter wheat and the metoro-
logical conditions OF the next two months may
easily add 10,000,000 to the figures, or sub
stract quite as large an amount. The winter
wheat area ready assures nearly enough for
home consumption and seed. The average
expectation of wheat and flour for the past
five years has been 100000 bushels. The
present expectation favors product nearly
if not quite sufficient for this rate of exporta-
ton in addition to consumption. The eX-
ports of the past year are some million
bushels less than this average. The surplus
will probably be ample, therefore, for any
foreign demand likely to arise. The distribu-
ton of the past year is as follows: Estimated
consumption of food 271, 900, 600, seed 51,474,-
900; exports from preliminary statement, 93,-
500 020; total 6,071 $50; crop of 1885, $751; liz,
600; drawn from crop of 1884, 5S, 1853, $50. The
visible supply has been decreased during the
year about 5000, coo bushels, leaving about
46, 100000 bushels to come from the surplus
IN the hands of the farmers. In view Of the
present surplus visible and invisible which is
still fair average, the last year official eSti-
mate is verified and the $4,000, 600 lower esti-
mates so strenuously insisted on by ambitious
crop StatlstlcianS is d1scredited with marked
emphasis. The condition of oats is lower than
in any former July report since 1879, when
the yield averaged twenty-five bushels per
acre. The present condition is SS.S against
81 in July of that year. The average for rye
is 95.6 against 81 last year. 1t is nearly the
same as in 1881. The condition of barley is
somewhat lower at the present date than at
the first of July in any recent year, yet the
difference is not sufficient to reduce greatly
the prospective yield. 1t averages S9.7
against 90 last July, and SO in July of the pre-
ViouS year.

For Three Wheelsmen.
Special to the Globe.
BosToN, Mass, July 2O.-Herbert
Fisher and Arthur McCullom, young Milk
street bankers, accompanied by Edward
Foster, who is in the brokerage business,
all three expert bicyclist. went out for run
on the Brighton road yesterday They
were some distance apart when near
Brighton, and the first overlook a boy
leading a bull. No sooner had he passed the
bovine than, hearing a noise behind him, he
turned and saw the enraged animal rushing
toward him Taking in the situation at a
glance, he put on full steam and shot far
ahead. Then the bull went for the next
rider, who escaped by running toward a
high fence and leaving his machine, vault
ing over just before the bull reached him.
Being enraged by both failures, the animal
turned and went for the last rider, the
broker. Seeing how his friends
escaped, the young man did his
level best, and SO did the bull.
1t was getting so exciting that the man de-
cided that his only chance was to make for
a thick hawthorne hedge by the roadside,
which he reached and mounted in such
haste as to catch his brooches in way that
tore them and left a generous portion on
the hedge, which the bull caught
on its horns and then stamped
upon. Finally the boy came
up, and, after considerable persuasion, he
got hold of the rope and led the animal
away. The three bicyclists came together
and compared notes. They decided that it
would be wise and prudent as we'll as de-
cent. to defer their return to the city until
the shades of night had settled down.
Later they all arrived at their homes,

IOWA AND ILLINOIS MEMBERS
THE sssURPLUs,, RESOLUTION.
Arguments Against Hts Adoption by
EairchiId and Jordan.

WASHINGTON, July 20.-Acting Secre-
tary Fairchild and Treasurer Jordan were
before the senate committee on finance this
morning to oppose the adoption of the Nor
rison surplus resolution. In the absence of
formal action by the committee no official
statement of the proceedings can be given
OUT for publication in the press. The fol-
lowing is gathered from various but ell
tirely trustworthy sources as to the SUBJ
stance of the proceedings:
Mr.. Fairchild said the resolution was an eff
fort on the part of the legislative branch of
the government to impose new restriction
upon the executive branch not heretofore
thought necessary, and in this view repre-
sentatives OF the administration were hardly
at liberty to discuss the merits of the prop
oSition. He spoke on the assumption that
the administration was fully committed to
and in sympathy with the policy of applying
the surplus to the redemption of the interest
bearing debt cand retiring such debt as
repeatedly as prudent administration and
sound policy permitted. This being assumed
the treasury department could not see a single
argument in favor of the resolution, while it
could see numerous and serious objections,
and ill-effectS and embarrassments which are
likely to arise from such arbitrary legislation.
1t was, IN his opinion, impossible for any
human being to look so far into the condition
OF the future as to tell in what amounts and
at what intervals bonds should be called and
redeemed during the next year. Mr.. Fair
child responded to a number of questions by
members of the committee as to the effects of
the resolution, his statements indicating the
belief OF the treasury that the department
would be greatly embarrassed and its obliga-
lions violated Treasurer Jordan submitted
a series of tabulated statements and written
replies to question previously propounded by
members of the committee, mainly of stats
teal and technical nature.

The Freight Agents.

Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, July 20.-The general freight
agents interested in the Western associa-
ton resumed their labors to-day and sue
ceeded in satisfactorily arranging all the
details necessary to put that organization
in active working order. The session was
devoted to the consideration of the newly
formed lumber pool, which the managers
agreed last week should be instituted. The
main point for discussion was, what was
competitive business and what local to the
lines, each road being DESTROYS
to retain as much control of the traffic as
possible. These points were finally settled
and the commissioner instructed to issue
the necessary tariffs. The arbitration of
percentages had been left to Commissioner
j. W. Midgley of the Southwestern Rail-
way ASSOCIATION, who will decide the matter
after hearing the arguments of the man
ayers and sitting and weighing the statis-
tics. All of the rates of the
old organization have been restored,
and lumber rates fixed on a basis Of II
cents from Chicago. The Northwestern
Freight association representatives came to-
gether in the afternoon to consider details
regarding competitive business in the
Northwest. They took up West-bound
rates to begin with. and fixed the following
taking affect at once:
First-class, 40 cents; second-class, 80 cents;
third-class, 20 cents; fourth-class, 10 cents;
fifth-class, 10 cents.
East-bound rates will be taken up to-
morrow:
