THE AREA OF SPRING WHEAT.
NepOrts Indicate That 1t is About the
Same as Last Year.

The report OF the department of agricul.
ture makes the area of spring wheat nearly
the same as last year-about 10000. 600
ceres. There is an increase OF one-sixth of
last years breadth in Dakota, a decrease
In Nebraska and small reduction in Min
nesota and Wisconsin. The winter wheat
districts show a small advance. The ex-
tensive acreage in Dakota is due mainly To
settlement and necessity OF ready money
Tor improvements and somewhat to last
years unsatisfactory flax production in
southern Dakota. The effect of the low
prices OF wheat has been counteracted bv
the superior rate of yield in recent wears.
the condition OF spring wheat averaging
9S12 against 81 last year-Wisconsin 81,
Minnesota SO. Iowa 100, Nebraska 81,
Dakota 90, Washington 100. Winter
wheat Is not quite so promising as on the
LIST OF May. A slight decline in
condition is expected in the
southern crop is more reduced, yet the av-
erage is only reduced two points, from "a. 9
to 92.7. 1t is still from average to high in
the great wheat producing states. In New
York 1T is not lttering as in years of strong
root growth. 1t is very promising in Mary
land and Virginia except in wet lands. In
the south it has been effected by rust.
Shrivelling grain harvested there has been
injured from drouth in Texas, rain and
floods in Ohio and hail storms in Missouri.
The prospect is good for a small fraction
above twelve bushels per acre. Rye also
declined from the general average of 95.7
to 94.4 during the last month. The bar
ley acreage is increased per cent and the
condition averaged 100; last year in June
80, the large acreage of oats in 1885 has
not been extensively increased. Ithas been
slightly reduced in Kentucy and Ohio.

arrange matters in order that the powder
might be burnt at st. Ouen, where the races
were to come off. But it was near a miss
after all-the other fellows bullet sang so
close along by the tip of his left ear as to

THE GREAT BAIT QUESTION.
American Fishermen Not at the uIercy
of Dominion Restrictions.

Washington special: While all proper
means viii be taken to urge upon the Cana
dian and English governments the inexpe-
diency OF depriving our fishing vessels of
ordinary commercial rights, yet at the
worst it is clear that the Gloucester men
will not be driven into accepting another
reciprocity treaty merely because they are
forbidden to visit Canadian ports for bait
To begin with, they are now evidently
establishing a system of procuring bait by
having it brought to them beyond the
three-mi limit. case in which two
American vessels adopted this device was
reported the other day from Cape Breton.
There is no doubt that many other Ameri-
can schooners have been supplied in this
way with fresh bats in harbors west Of
Halifax. Several vessels, also, including
the Garfield, Gerring and Greenleaf, have
procured bait and ice in Bras Or lake or
at Canso and Fox islands. Some of the
Gloucester fishermen say that they can
always get all the bait they want by avoid
ing the dominion protection vessels, and
consider that the seizure of the Adams was
due wholly to her own carelessness.
1t is evident that these confident views
are based on the desire of many of the peo-
pie to sell bait, and this is safe reliance,
since it is known that hundreds of men,
women, and children depend for living on
the quid they catch and sell. There is
reason to believe that if the restrictions
against the selling of bait are enforced
against the inhabitants, they will raise an
cutlery which will prove more efficient for
the American fisherman than the latter
could raise for themselves.
Besides, there are other sources OF bait
supply. The vessels of some owners have
been expressly ordered not to attempt to
take bait from the closed Canadian ports.
1t is perfectly possible to establish stations
for bait at the Magdalen Islands on that
portion of the Newfoundland coast which
is open under the treaty. Then Eastport
is not far away, and bait may be carried
from far more distant ports and kept with
ice. The great changes due to seine fishing
over the days when al mackerel were
hauled in by hook or line must be con-
sidered.
All these points increase the conviction
that the Canadians have not so potent
leverage in the bait controversy for secur-
ing another reciprocity treaty as they
imagine. And OF course all this presup-
poses a submission to the view that the
American fishermen are excluded by the
treaty from the commercial transaction
OF buying bait, which has not yet been con-
coded.

wagon. She was bleeding from several cuts
on her face and one of her legs was broken.

picked up unconscious. Both are seriously
but not fatally injured. An operative was

tooth in the machine struck button and
a spark shot into the air and fell into the
midst of combustible material. The loss
s estimated at 100000.

THE CASTLE CAPTURED.


Munich Dispatch Ludwig's deposition
has thrown gloom over the Bavarian me-
tropoIis Business is partially suspended
and many evidences are presenting of the
deep attachment OF the people for the I'M
fortunate king. The ministerial deputa-
ton to secure the release Of Count Holstein
had the utmost difficulty in gaining access
to the castle, which was surrounded by
armed guards in great numbers. The oun-
tain peasantry were also much excited and
threatened to kill the deputation, but after
an explanation Of their harmless mission
they were permitted to enter. They re-
placed the kings servants. placed a strong
military Gordon around the castle and left
TWO physicians to guard the king, who will
be removed to Berg Castle. The Catholic
clergy appreciate the gain to them in Lud-
wigs deposition. They will undoubtedly
exert more influence over Luitpold. The
pope has sent congratulations and ordered
the nuncio at Munich court to establish
more cordial relations between the regency
and the vatican. At Berlin the deposition
Is regarded with supreme indifference.
hIng Ludwig to-day took his departure
lor Berg Castle, on Lake Starnberg. The
scenes along the route Of the Journey were
very affecting Peasants knelt in road
ways weeping. The king responded to their
greetings mournfully but kindly. Helooked
pale and weary. The utmost precautions
nave been taken to prevent him from COM
raitting suicide.
