CORN Is A POOR CROP.
The Average Reported the Small
est Since 1881.

GSU SkEkCG 1901
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1O.-The Novem-
Der returns to the department of agrl-
culture of rates of yield per acre make
the average for corn 1919 bushels; pota-
toes, SIS bushels; buckwheat, las
bushels; hay, 1920 tons; tobacco 71S
pounds. The corn crop makes the
smallest yield reported excepting that
of 1881. which was 1876 bushels. That
of 1887 was 2O.1 bushels. 1t is IS per
cent of the average of the last ten years,
a period which included four unusually
poor years and only 73 per cent of last
years crop. The indications of recent
returns have been so uniform that the
estimate for permanent record will not
be likely to change these figures unless
by slight fraction. The decline of the
last decade is not due to impairment of
fertility, but to unfavorable meteorolog-
ical influences. The highest rates are
in New England, as usual. New York
averages 25.9; Pennsylvania, 27.5; Ohio,
20.7; Michigan. 26.7; Indiana, 24.3; Illi-
nOiS, 25; Iowa, 26: Missouri, 25.S; Kan
pal decline is in the corn surplus states.
The average rate of yield of potatoes is
57.5 bushels. The condition of the crop
in October was lower than in any re-
ported previous crop except In 1887,
being 61.7 against 61.5, when the rate of
yield was 56.9 bushels per acre.
1t imports scarcity and warrants high
prices. The lowest yields of principal
states are as follows. New YORK, 62

To sell out. 1t is this that brought us an
almost constant stream of stocks from

exchange. however, in this market now
do not show that any large amount of

appear that London has been so much
Depleted of American Stocks
that there cannot be many more to

large remittanceS for stocks sold on
London account, and the presumption is
at least admissible that there has benn
less real selling by London than is cur
rently reported. The panic seems to
continue from its own effects, by the
continual exhaustion of the margins of
successive sets of spectators in an eX-
tremely narrow market, where the
whole number of speculatOrS is
very much smaller than ever
before. Every one admits that
stocks look extraordinarily cheap,
but the very fact that they have de
cllned so much sets everybody looking
for failures as the result, and in view
OF this and continued high rates for

as he makes little loss. Nobody can
give any more tangible reasons iOr the

armed early in 1891 with the new maya
zine rifle. The experiments that had
been made with this new weapon, he
said, had been in every way satisfac-
tory. Lord Salisbury replied to the
toast 'rhe Government" He said he
regarded as a good omen of peace
throughout the world and of general
entente among nations the fact that
the cZarewitch was about to visit
India as the guest of the Queen.
He felt that this visit represented
the growth of friendly ideas in Russia
with reference to India-ideas that were
pregnant with benefit to both countries.
and that afforded additional security for
the peace of Europe. Touching the
African agreements made with France
and Germany, he said they tended to
cement the relations of England with
those countries, while the negotiations
with Italy were making progress toward
a successful issue. Although the dis
pute with Portugal had not been so
happily arranged, still the position did
not justify any sinister apprehensions.
Referring to the trade with America
Lord Salisbury said that the Mckinley
tariff law would certainly affect some
portion of British commerce. Free
traders could rejoice over the recent
electoral victories as a protest against
eXtravagant and utterly selfish protec-
ton. But they must not draw con-
clusions too rashly. They must still
face the prospect of prohibitive tariffs,
England had no retaliatory systems, as
she had reduced her own tariff to the
lowest point, Referring to relations
between labor and capital, the
premier said that if they had an eight
hours bill forbidding men to exercise
their strength and skill an hour or two
more, thus imposing hindrances on pro-
duction, they must be prepared to meet
as a natural result the victorious COM
petition Of other countries where labor
is not SO embarrassed. The govern
ment, he declared, would not interfere
at all il disputes between capital and
labor. State interference would do
more harm than good, and the differ
ences would in course of time adi;sst
themselves. unwlse theorists and in
terested politicians might mislead some
workmen, but the heart and mind of the
country would remain patriotic and true
to economic commercial traditions. The
premier said he believed that the Me-
klnley tariff was due to the idea that

Jay Gould Points Out How to Make

Fortune.
NEW YORK, Nov. 10.-Jay Gould was
asked this afternoon to give his views
in regard to the great fall of prices in
Wall street. Mr. Gould said:
There is, of course. as any one can see by
looking at the prices, very great depression
but there is no doubt the market would have
rlghted itself if the trouble in London had
not come up. How much farther things will
go, do not know. only know that any one
who has the courage to buy now and the
patience to wait, will make a fortune. SO
far as know anything about the different
proIerties-especIaIly those that l am in
iereSted i'll, they are all right and there is no
reason for the present lower prices. l SUD-
pose six months from now we shall look back
upon these prices and, comparing them with
the prices then. will say how ridiculously
low they were. History repeats itself have
seen within the last few days very good eyi-
dence of the amount of money that has been
going into Wall street, 10 buy stocks princi-
pally. not on margin. but outright This
amount is likely to increase, and when IL
gets so that the buyers are more numerous
than the sellers the market will turn. The
railroads are all doing very well. The large
movement of freight now gong on is heing
carried at better rates. and all the roads have
better understanding with each other than
