THE WHEAT CROP.
Estimates as to the Aggregate
Crop tn California.

SAN FRANCISCO, December 27.-The
quantity of the wheat in California that
will be available for export on January
LIST is shown as follows: 1t may be said
that the estimates of this years crop,
which six months ago were as high as
sixty millions bushels and over, still
widely differ, some asserting that it will
be forty millions, while others, equally
competent authorities, are positive it
will not exceed thirty million bushels.
As the closest calculators lean toward
the lower figures, the estimate
of this seasons crop is placed at
thirty four million bushels. The old
crop on hand July first, two million six
hundred thousand bushes, this years
crop thirty.four million; total, thirty-six
million six hundred thousand bushels.
Deduct the shipments to Europe and
other countries between July first AMI
December fifteenth, fourteen million
bushels, the quantity that will be ship
ped between December 18th and 3lst,
one million five hundred thousand, re.
quired for home consumption, seed and
carry over eleven million five hundred
thousand, total, twenty.seven million,
the balance available for export will be
nine million six hundred thousand bush.
els. The continent this year has taken
% per cent. of our European shipments
unheard of before. Last
year during the same period it took only
5000 bushels. Our shipments to Europe
are considered large because they are
with last years, which were
small. This accounts for the
impression still prevailing that Califor-
MIA had such large wheat crop this
y ear.
Mr.. John Tenbosh, the we'll informed |
grain broker, whose opinion with OBJ
servations was asked, said that fact
worthy of notice was that California |
mas, like other great exporting eenters,
'uch as India, Chill and the Atlantic |
ports, parted this year with larger |
of her surplus in the early |
part of the season than usual, as com.
,ared with the shipments of previous

For the Admission of the Terri
tories.

WASHINGTON, December 27.-Repre-
sentative Springer says he intends to
secure, if possible, the passage by the
present Congress his bill to provide an
enabling act for the admission of Dako
ia, Montana, New Mexico and Washing
ton Territories. He says it will prob.
ably not be possible to get the Com.
mittee on Territories to report on the
bill. but that they will try to have it
substituted by the House for some other
territorial admission bill when the latter
comes up for consideration. He thinks
the idea of admitting all at once will
prevent opposition on party grounds, as
they will be equally divided politically,
and as new States will have no voice in
the Presidential election in 1888.

wheat iRn Australia.

SAN FRANCISCO, December 27.--The
New Zealand Loan and Mercantile As
surance Company, of Melbourne, in a
circular of the crop prospects in Austria
liza, says the recent hot weather, though
it has had forcing influence on the
growing crops, has not been favorable to
the filling out of the wheat heads, and
in some districts in the north the ac-
counts to hand of wheat on the plains
are far from favorable. On irrigated
lands the yield will be large, but the av-
erage computed in the latter is small.
The difference of four bushels to the
acre on dry land to thirty.five and
forty on irrigated, indicates what
can be done. Some symptoms of rust
has appeared, but they have been main-
ly confined to the poor soils or over
worked lands. The grasshoppers are
numerous, but the crops are too far ad-
vanced as a rule to suffer much from
this inhic!ion. From South Australia
the accounts promise {, six bushel aver
age. The Queenland wheat crop is
complete failure, the rust having de-
stroyed all hopes of yield, and the
farmers are now cutting their crops for
hay.
