Ex-Governor Moody, of Salem, Ore,
went to Portland Saturday to join the
Oregon Convention, which leaves Sum
day and joining the California delegation
at Ogden. The Governor prefers Harri-
son for President, with Hawley or Nor

rest Of the delegation favor Gresham.
A special train carrying the Tammany
Hall delegates from the st. Louis Con-
vention, rolled into the Grand Central
depot at New York Saturday. The
delegates were travel-stained and looked
tired out. Nearly all the delegates and
those who accompanied them wore BAN
danas around their necks or hats.
Nearly all the Massachusetts delegates
to Chicago and several members of the
State Central Committee dined together
in Boston SatvC&ay afternoon and in
formally discYssed the candidates. Eff
forts were R<fde TO unite the delegation
on some IS man, but the attempt failed.
The dSSBates are divided in preferences
between Gresham, Sherman, Harrison

legislation favorably affects all claims OF

WHEAT CROP REPORT.
WAsH1NaroN, June 9.-The following
is the crop report issued by the Depart
ment OF Agriculture: There was some
reduction in the seeding Of the winter
wheat area in some States, though the
average breadth Of all was but slightly
reduced. In the East and South there
was no materialAoss of area from freez-
ing, but in Several Western States it was
considerable. The apparent reduction
Of breadth Of winter wheat, as compared
with that Of last year, is about one and
three-fourths million acres. The per-
centage for the entire winter wheat re-
gion is placed at ~ per cent. 1t is re-
duced IS in Illinois, IA in Ohio, 10 in
Michigan and 9 in Indiana. This
is in comparison with the area
harvested last year. There has been
an increase OF area OF spring
wheat III Dakota and in the Territories
further west, but decrease in Iowa,
Wisconsin and Minnesota, making an
average decrease for the spring wheat re-
gion Of one per cent. The area in wheat
is apparently slightly below thirty-six
million acres. There is q slight local
change in the condition Of winter wheat.
There is some improvement in New York
and Pennsylvania and marked decline
in Missouri and minor changes else
where, making an average Of 1858 against
1871 in the May acreage. Barley is nearly
the same as last year. New York and
Wisconsin are credited with an increase
of one per cent, Minnesota with two,
Dakota ten. Iowa, Missouri and Califor-
mia report small reduction. The condi-
ton Of barley averages SS. It is only SO

BLAINE.
The G. o. P.,s Reluctance to Give
Him up-Whnt il to be Done.

EaIAh up w nut II 10 DC DOnes
AUGUSTA, Me-, June 9.-It may be a
surprise to many, in the light OF Blaine's
two letters of declination, that there is a
well-defned and strong feeling mani
tested among some of Blaine's friends
here that he may yet be the candidate of
the Republican party IN the coming cam
paign. The nomination Of Thurman is
regarded by Republicans here as very
wise one. and as strengthening the party
in the West. 'sWhat is to be done p"
the Blaine men ask. Almost daily re-
ports are received here from different
sections of the country lamenting the
withdrawal of Blaine, and declaring that
itcannot be accepted.
Colonel Allen, a delegate from the
Third Maine district, has Just returned
from the West, and he says that he finds
the Blaine men decidedly set against his
declination and opposing it's acceptance
with determination.
Many Republicans here think that the
only thing to do if the demand for the
Maine man continues, is to nominate
him.
1t is acknowledged that he does not
want the nomination, but it is said by
his supporters that if, after repeated bal
loting the relative strength of the other
candidates does not change materially,
then the convention ought to turn to him
as one man and give him their unani-
NOUS and hearty endorsement.
n such an event. they ask, can he re-
fuse to accept?

LOUISVILLE, KY, June S.-The Demo-
cratic clubs, headed by band Of music,
and followed by concourse Of citizens,
serenaded Henry Watterson at his home
in this city this evening on his return
from st. Louis. He spoke, reviewing
the work of the Convention, platform,
ticket and SO on. He said: 81
went to the st. Louis Convention
with single purpose-to urge
that the line OF battle should be drawn
on the message of the President and the
position of our friends in Congress-. /
met there formidable array in favor OF
limiting our plan OF campaign to sim
pie re-affirmation Of the platform of 1884,
and general Endorsement of the Admin
istration. There was from first to last
no other issue raised. 1t is true l
helped to make the platform Of 1884. 1t
is true that l spoke for it in the National
Convention OF that year. 1t is true that
for three years have put upon it a con-
struction which thought to be justified
by the plain letter of its meaning, but
it is also true that the country ac-
cepted it as straddle, and that
this Interpretation is the stereotypted
belief on the public mind. Merely to re-
iterate it there, was to lose all we have
since gained. could not consent to
this. 1t is not true proposed any
advance; on the contrary, l agreed to
take the platform submitted by
Scott and German, word for
word if they would agree to
strike out the first clause, which, with
out any qualificationwhatever, reaffirmed
the platform OF 1884. There was no
other difference between us. None at
all and when We finally reached the
conclusion, embodied by the platform as
perfected, we stood as one man, and not
as three men.

ON THE HIP.
Barker,s Grip ON the Russian Court
A Financial sensation.


PHILADELPHIA, June 9-Filings Of the
papers in the suit of Count Mitkiewitcz,
against Wharton Barker, caused a sensa-
ton in financial circles in this city
to-day. Barker refused to see news
paper men. One of the subscribers
to the 100000 blind pool said
to-day: Barker hasee the Count
on the hip. Barker has receipts from
him for all the money he spent in China.
We never agreed to give what he claims.
He was to get nothing except cash con-
sideration for his servicesy and small
interest in the companies We ara still
at work, but of course Mitkiewitcz is not
with us, and until we are quite through
we cannot tell the public just where the
concessions stand. You can say, how
ever, that we expect to pnt the scheme
through. l don't know what Mr.. Barker
intends to do about the Counts suit. /
don't suppose he will pay much attention
to it"
A prominent business man, also one of
the ten who forced the blind pool, said
that the Chinese Government refused
some time ago to have anything to do
with Americans unless they parted COM
pany with Mitkiewitcz. Argument was
of no avail, and finally Wharton Barker
proposed that the members of the
syndicate sign paper, transferring their
interests to him, so that he could start
afresh, and secure concessions from the
Chinese. This was agreed to, but the
Count fatty refused to enter into such
an agreement, and placed every obstacle
he could in the way of its consummation,
and finding Barker could not be caJoled
or frightened into acceding to his terms,
he began suit against him. The busi-
ness man alluded to above, also said the
concessions were all right at'present. He
continued
We have not succeeded yet in freezing
the Count out. but think we will.
After we get rid of him, Barker will go
ahead and get concessions irrevocably
granted to us. There Is something wise
back of all this, and it concerns the
Chinese Minister. l cannot tell you
Just what it is, but when it comes out
there will be seneation. tell you the
Count has raised an awful row, and we
are sorry we did not know him before we
took him in with us. You will hear
something more in short time.

THE SUGAR TRUST.
Capacities OF the RefinerIcs In and
Out OF the Combination.


Out OF the Combination.
PnILADELPHIA, June S.-Claus Spreck-
els to-day, in the course of a conversa-
ton regarding the sugar industry, when
asked to give some information about re-
fineries in and out of the trust, said 4
''There are twenty refineries in the. ere. I
trust. They have already been -.l1e-
rated. As to those out of the trust and
their capacity, l can tell you something
which may interest your readers. There
is in California the sugar refinery Of San
Francisco, with daily capacity Of |, ,30O,-
600 pounds. Then there is Harrison 4
Frazier, with capacity of about
1900, 900 wounds; E. O.. Knight &
Co., said I'd produce about 400 900 pounds
day. The new refinery here will pro-
duce 1900, 900 pounds day, making
5000, 900 or 5,200, 900 tons per day pro-
duced by the refneries out Of the Trust.
The consumption of sugar in the United
States Is 1,300,000 tons year. The re-
fineries out Of the Trust, including the
new refinery, will produce, providing the
capacity OF the other rehneries here given
is correct, 100000 pounds daily, or
100000 tons peryear. This leaves only
6700 900 tons year for the refneries in
the Trust, or much less than half. You
see, therefore, that the four re6neries out
Of the Trust have a greater capacity than
the twenty in the Trust, and have moth
ing TO fear from Them"
