Annual Meeting of the Portland Base
Ball Association.

The annual meeting of the stockholders OF
the Portland Base Ball Association was held
Thursday afternoon at the Falmouth Hotel
Two hundred and thirty shares were repre-
scented. The report of the secretary and
treasurer was presented and accepted. The
report shows that the receipts for the year
were S23,974.17; expenditures, $23,526.15
leaving balance of S44S.02 in the treasury
AS there were at least $500 left over in the
treasury for the year 1885, it would appear
that the actual receipts for the ball year just
ended were $50 less than the expenditures.
The election of officers was postponed to
the third Wednesday in November

Reports From Grain Dealers and Millers
in All Important Districts.
TOLEDO, O, June l8.-C. A. King d
Co, during the past three days have re,
ceived l 500 reports from grain dealers and
millers covering almost every important
wheat county iu the six principal winter
wheat States. Prospects are very fsvors-
BILE except in Kansas and Michigan. Mis-
souri, has excellent prospects, Illinois near
ly as good, while Indiana and Ohio are al
most as favorable. Michigan hts a fair
prospect, but the outlook in Kansas is
poor. Yield and quality promise 10 be
good.
Michigan reports the present prospects
about the same as July |, when the Agrl
cultural Bureau report was gathered. The
other States all show a material improve
ment during the past two weeks, being
greatest in Missouri and Illinois. Harvest
IS in full blast in Kansas and Missouri
Next week it will BE- general in most ol
Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, but not in the
Northern sections until the last Of June
and in Michigan the first part of July
Harvest will average nearly two weeks
earlier than last year.
Nearly two thirds Of the reports say far
mers will be disposed to sell freely immedi-
ately after threshing. Even Michigan re.
oorts that over halt will sell. Many will
be compelled to, owing to the crop failure
of last year, while others say that farmers
are disposed to accept the situation, as
those who have sold early the past two
seasons haye dona boat.
