All OF the appropriation bills except the
General Deficiency and the Forti6Catior
bills have passed both Houses, and ID
these the Senate will devote its earliest
attention. The River and Harbor and
Legislative bills still linger In conference
and the Sundry Civil bill will doubtless
be made subject Of conference to-
morrow. All the other appropriation
bills have gone to the President.
Beyond q few leading features, which
may be stated as probabilities, the future
proceedings in both houses are likely to be
characterized by struggles for precedence

CHICAGO, July 25.-Tne following crop
summary will appear in this weeks issue
Of the Farmers Review:
The prolonged drouth which Is almost
unprecedented in its length aud severity,
is beginning TO have very serious effect
upon all late crops. The spring wheat
outlook has been in no wise improved
and the average condition OF the crop has
declined since July l. when the Farmers
Review indicated that the probable total
wheat yield Of the United States would
not exceed q round total OF four hundred
and twenty million bushels. The tenor Of
the reports indicate that the estimate will
have 10 be reduced by from ten To fifteen
million bushels. The reports from Ne.
braska, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota and
Dakota do not indicate an average yield OF
six To ten bushels TO the acre, with many
fields entirely ruined.
Corn is reported uneven In Michigan,
Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa and Nebraska,
and while looking clean 10 In need OF rain
and shortage in the yield 10 threatened.
In Minnesota corn is looking well, but II

drouth.
The oats crop will fall short with a
promise Of not to exceed one.hali an av.
erage yield In Wisconsin and Minnesota,
and three.fourths Of an average yield In
Illinois, Michigan and Iowa.
With the exception Of Minnesota the
potato crop is threatened with a failure,
few Of the reports indicating more than
one-hali q yield and In many sections a
complete failure. The pastures In all the
Northwestern States are reported as short

WASHINGTON, D. o., July 25,-Com.
Missioner Miller has Issued his preliminary
report, and it shows the Internal Revenue
establishment to be in good condition.
1t shows that the total collections for the
year were $l1G,9O2, ,s45 81, which amount
has been properly accounted for and
covered into the Treasury OF the United
States. The total collections for the fiscal
year ended June 80, 1885, were $ll2, ,42l,-
l2l OF, the increase for the fiscal year just
closed being 81 ,4Sl ,724 AS.
The cost Of collection for the fiscal year
ended June 80, 1856, was about 81 800, 900,
being 8 81 percent OF the amount collected,
and Sl55, 900 less than the cost for the
year ended June 80, 1885.
The collections In West Virginia during
the past year were $488, ,062 IS.
The Commissioner informed me to-day
that the only reply he had to make TO the
ReOiSier'S recent attack upon him because
he asked for an increase Of appropriation,
was that the business Of the office will
greatly increase and he wanted to provide
Tor this emergency. The collections this
month have already been nearly million
dollars more than the corresponding
month laA. wear.

Dave Leonard and O. O. Watts are both
in the city, The matter will probably be
settled this week, as Judge Fllck's term
will expire August 2, It is impossible to
predict who will be the successful appli-
cant, as both Mr., Camden and Mr.. Kenna

all their power. No Ill feeling Is likely to
be engendered between the two Senators,
as the contest 80 far has been conducted
in q friendly spirit, Whichever candi-
date Ia successful, am assured by their
friends, the other will quietly acquiesce
in the choice, In this respect the fight
will differ from the contest over the COL

A Democrat said to me to-day that 1t is
not impossible that Wood Daley will be
appointed as compromise, The claims
ol both Watts and Leonard have been
submitted TO the President and strongly
urged by the Senators, Daley has also
made application, and as he is a friend Of
both Senators the President will probably
select him and settle the deadlock.

Others opposed this, and said the Re.

that they would not support him nor be

loudly over his defeat for the Speakership,
and the methods, as he claimed, used by
the Sherman managers to defeat him.
The prevailing sentiment OF the caucus
being anything to beat Sherman, a caucus
