POOR MISSOURI CROPS.

Reports show Agricultural Conditions to
Be Below the Average in the State.
ST. LOUIS, July THE Missouri state
board of agriculture has just issued a
report on the crop prospects to date,
and the report seems to indicate that
the crop will be considerably below the
average. The prospect is favorable for
securing the wheat crop in excellent
condition. Never in the history of the
state has there been so poor an oat crop
harvested as the present one. Much Of
the corn in that section was not planted
until late in the season and will prove a
very light crop. Clover will yield fair
crop generally, but timothy is short and
light. The effect of the late spring
frosts is seen in the condition of apples
and peaches. Complaints are frequent
that apples are dropping badly: Grapes ,:

Millions of Dollars Mt Elizabeth, N. j.,
In Ashes.
The Singer Sewing Machine Factory,
at Elizabeth, N. j., was found to be on
fire at II o'clock on the night of the 9th.
The flames were first seen on the third
floor, having broken out in the main Of
fee. At midnight the main building,
which covers acres of ground, was en-
veloped in flames.
Says the dispatch: All the en-
gines In the city have been working
on the flames, including five tugs.
The main building at midnight was
burned down, and the fire was then
spreading to the others. The walls are
I'll falling down, and there have been
many narrow escapes from death.
Much Of the stock and the books and
records Of the company were saved.
About 1000 men were employed in the
building which is now destroyed. 1t is
likely that the entire factory will be
burned which will make the loss amount
to several million dollars. Great excite
ment prevails in the city, and thou
sands of people are viewing the fire.
The amounts of the loss and insurance
cannot be exactly estimated. A repor-
ter saw L. b. Miller. superintendent of
the company, who is at the scene work
ing hard, but he could not learn any
thing about the insurance. The fire, it
Is learned, started in the machinery
shop on the third floor.
