The Gale OF Unlimited Tickets From
the West to be Resumed.
CHICAGO, Jan. 24.-An agreement entered
into few weeks ago at Chicago by the
Ohio river roads to sell only continuous
tickets from Chicago, Pittsburg. Detroit
and Indianapolis to Chattanooga and other
southern points has already been broken.
The reason for the agreement was that the
practice of selling Florida tickets with
unlimited stop-over privileges at one
point on southern routes enabled the
scalpers to manipulate the tickets and ds-
fnoralize rates. The new order Of things
was to have taken effect Jan. 90, but it is
claimed that the Monon route did not OBJ
serve il. General Passenger Agent Ford of
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, In
consequence of the Monon's action, has
given notice that the agreement Is abrogated
SO far as his company Is concerned. and
that he has resumed the sale of unlimited
tickets.

CROP REPORT.
A Coed Yield Of Hops in Northern
California Some Hot Spells.

SACRAMENTO, Aug. 22.-The following
report issued by the State Agricultural So
ciety in cooperation with the United States
Weather Bureau was telegraphed East to-
dag by Observer Barwick: Northern CALI
fornia is now in the middle of hop picking
and the yield is better than anticipated, both
in quality and quantity. Bean prospects are
below the average on account of numerous
hot waves. The wheat yield is about
the average. Grape prospects are most
excellent. The weather is good for
fruit-drying, aud there are great Quanti-
ties being dried. In Southern Cali
bean crop from good soil but slightly burned
on aikali lands MuScat and Zinfandel
grapes have been marketed. The Chino
sugar-beet factory is in operation. There
are favorable prospects for large raisin
crop. Last night, according to the weather
bureaus report, was the waTmest since the
2lst of July, at which time the lowest tenn
perature was only 69o. the same as last
night. Up to the present date there have
been forty days this year upon which the
temperature reached above 90o The high
est was 106' on the 30th of June, July LIST
and 21st, with twelve days upon which
the temperature reached 1909 and above.
The average number of days with the tenn
perdture above 90o. as deduced from the
record oil thirteen years past, is thirty-nine.

The average by one day, and must pass
through the usual heated spells of Septem-
Der. The least number of hot days were in
1880, when there were but sixteen days with
the temperature above SO. the greatest num-
Der being filty-eight days in 1888. The
highest and lowest temperatures in this city
