Just been received from Arlee, the prln-
cipal town on Flat Head Reservation,

The Wheat ProspPct.

A dispatch of the Goth from st. Paul
says: The ram last night and this
morning covered about one-half of the
Northwest territory. Reports from
along the different lines of railroads
show that it was local in its character.
A better feeling now prevails
among the wheat raisers and
grain men, and the outlook points
to good crop. Conservative esti-
mates made on Change placed the
wheat crop for Minnesota and Dakota
at from 10000, ,0O0 TO 100, ,G0C, 900 bushels.
The grain men say now that all danger
is over, and although some parts Of the
wheat-growing country might dry out if
no more rain fell, the crisis has been
passed. Should everything prove favor
able crop of at least 100000, 600 bush
els can he safely expected, while
should unfavorable weather set
in from now OH the outlook
IS good for an increase over last
year of at least $4,000 coo or
20,p0l,000 bushels in the Northwest.
While the rain has greatly benefited
crops, 1t has had very little effect on the
lumber interests. The long drouth has
dried up the swamps and marshes, and
the rain SO far has not been heavy
enough to start the logs down. At the
lumber exchange, this morning, 1t was
stated that two or three crews bad been
sent out to look after the logs, but no
considerable benefit was looked for at

WHICH VICTORIA?
A Mystery of the Sea Develops on the

BosToN, Mass, June 25.-The mystery
attending the wreckage which is COM
