CROP FAILURES.
Decline in The Yield Of Wheat, Corn
and Fruit.

ST. PAUL, Aug. Son account of hot
weather and lack of rain during the last
few weeks, former estimates of 100000, 0O0
bushels as the wheat crop in the Dakotas
will probably be little out Of The
way. In South Dakota and Southern
Minnesota the harvest is nearly over.
The general yield will be fair. The rail-
roads have weekly crop reports on which
they base their estimates OF the wheat yield
TO know how much they are going to draw.
If they are not mistaken the yield will
reach above 100000 bushels.
KANSAS CITY, Aug. s-The total failure
OF the corn crop is reported in nearly all of
the territory in the northern part Of the
State line, and from Larned westward.
Less than third of the average yield is ex-
pected, or about 70. 100000 bushels.
COLUMBUS, Aug. s. According to the
report of the State Board of Agriculture
the present indications show decline of
estimate of July 1st. The result OF thrash.
ing has been disappointment to farmers
in most sections of the State. The yield is
not so great as was anticipated. From the
appearance of growing grain corn is badly
injured. The indications are that only
from 60 to 70 per cent Of the average crop
can be realized. Oats are badly injured by
blight or rust, and apples, peaches and
pears are almost total failure.
OMAHA, Aug. S.-Advices from nearly
every county in this State show the condi-
ton of corn to be far below the average.
Several counties are being entirely ruined
by the hot winds. In the extreme western
counties. where irrigation is tried, wheat
has yielded heavily. In Iowa the indica-
tons are that corn will average about half
the crop compared with last year.
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 8.-Reports to the
State Agricultural Board indicate the
wheat yield to be about IS per cent Of the
average crop, and corn will mature about a
half crop. Fruit is failure.

BATON ROUGE Ia.l. Aug. S.-Tbe Anti
lottery League has issued an address to the
people of the United States reciting at
length the history of the lottery in Louisi-
ana, its rrupt purchase of legislation to
do its will and override the wishes of the
people; the use OF its enormous revenues
greater than all the banking capital of the
State-in every available way calculated to
hold its monopoly; its corruption of the
moral sense OF even good people, and its
utter carrying away Of the ignorant many
who suffer privation or steal to get money
to play the lottery. The aggregate Of the
schemes Of the monthly and semi-annual
drawings is the fabulous sum Of $4,000, 600
per annum, and the aggregate of their daily
drawings is over S20,000,000 more. They
receive annually $1,250,000 from the writ
ten policies sold on numbers of the daily
drawing, apart from the sale of the regular
printed tickets. The schemes of the last
drawings are so arranged that they can
sell 70 per cent Of their tickets, pay 10 per
cent fol, selling them. lose all the prizes
provided for in the schemes. pay S1,000,000
for expenses, and still make $3,000,000
profit per annum. This the address says,
shows the scheme Is fraudulent and unfair
1t pays but 53 per cent of the money re-
ceived, while the licensed lotteries of other
nations require the payment OF 20 per cent.
The address recommends TO Congress
the immediate adoption of an amendment
to the Federal Constitution prohibiting any
State from chartering or licensing any lot
terry or gift prize, abolishing those already
established. and giving Congress the power
to enforce prohibition by appropriate legis-
lation; pending that, that all lottery mat
ter be excluded from the mails and express
companies.
The Anti-Lottery Convention adjourned
sine die to-day. A resolution was adopted
10 boycott The Times Democrat and
Daily States of New Orleans ON account of
their Dro-lottery sentiments. The News
paper Committee reported that $4,000 had
been guaranteed for a newspaper to be pub
lished in New Orleans in opposition to the
rechartering Of the lottery.

NEW YORK, Aug. S.-The opinion gener-
ally expressed at leading Eastern points of
Californa's Exposition on Wheels gives
little fear from the competition of Florlda's
Show on Wheels, should the two happen to

large extent, subOrdinated To that attrac-

Gently threatened to take it, on account of
a controversy with the Asbury Park au-

The interest in prunes has not been as
tame this week as the surface indication
suggested. Several contracts have been
placed for French and number of car
loads of Californians also have been taken,
part by local j0bbers and part at other
points. A Philadelphia firm quietly secured
5000 boxes or more of French, some little
time ago, 1t is said, and have resold the
entire amount at neat market profit. One
thousand cases have since been taken at
81 cents here for sixties to nineties. Car
loads of forties to sixties in boxes sold at
an average of IL cents delivered here, and
three carloads of particularly favored
brand at about cent over that rate.

Bodie Flooded.

HAWTHORNE Nev), Aug. S.-A disas-
trous washOut occurred in the canyon con-
tiguous to Bodis yesterday afternoon.
Rain began falling in torrents at about 2
o'clnck and continued until the streets Of
Bodie were flooded to the depth of several
feet. The greatest volume of water fell in
North Bodie.
NJ. T. Chappell, who arrived from Bodie
to-day, reports that Joseph Thompson, who
left Bodie for Aurora during the storm.
was drowned while attempting to ford
Bode Canyon with his horse and buck
board at GregoTy's ranch.
The bridge at this place has been washed
away, and Mrs Gregory shouted to ThCmp
son not TO attempt to ford, but he paid no
attention to her warning. As soon as the
current struck the buckboar the vehicle
turned over and Thompson was thrown
about until his body was found covered
with q mass Of debris 800 yards below.
The horse was caught in growth of will
lows and was rescued after three hours.
Greal damage was done in the canyon.
All the bridges and culverts were washed
away. The sluices of over twenty miners
were washed out and sent fly ing end over
end down the ravine. Great trees and
huge powders carried each other in the
mad race, and in two hours the hitherto
dry canyon was carrying at least fifteen
feet of a roaring cataract.
The extent Of the damage cannot be es-
