The London Standard Predicts a
Shortage in the Crop.
LONDON, April 6.-The Standard to-day
publishes long and careful review of the
agricultural outlook, in the course of which
1t says that the steady riss In wheat revives
the hopes of the English farmers, adding
that wheat will probably reach the high-
est price in many years, the princi-
pal cause Of the rise being the failure
Of foreign crops. The wheat crops OF France
aud Russia, according to the Standard. are
much below the average, and the same
paper says the deficiency will be at least
70 900 quarters, adding that it is expected
destroyed the French crops.
PEssIMIsTIo REPORTS.
Germany, Holland and Belgium all fur
nish pessimistic reports. Ia Roumania
there ia a decreased wheat area, aud in
India there has been a bad wheat season.
The only exception is Hungary, where
there are better prospects; but il is almost
certain that the worlds wheat consumption
will exceed the production computed,
Whatever the magnitude Of Americas crop
may be it will not be sufficient TO cover the
European deficit, thus compelling an ex-
tensive draft upon the reserves for the
third year in succession.
CONSIDERED GOOD FOR ENGLAND.
The Standard, in conclusion, says: "In-
creased home consumption, decreased wheat
area, owing to the spread Of population, and
recourse to scientific tillage in order to re-
pair the waste OF the first settlers, thus in
creasing the cost OF production, must inevi-
tably remove the American farmers for
midable competitor in the European market
and allow English farmers to look forward
to prosperous future"

Then Tanning was sworn and told his
story. He explained his possession Of
the amount of money in question and his
presence in the city as they have already
been explained in this story. and assured
the court that he could easily be identi-
fed in New York.
AS against this the prosecution pro-
duced the three policemen already men,
toned and the warden of the Illinois
state prison, who all swore positively
that the prisoner was John Corkins be-
yond the possibility of a doubt. The
warden presented the detailed written
description of John Corkins taken down
when he had previously been sent to
prison for similar crime, and it Tailed
exactly with Fannings appearance, even
to the location of small mole. on his

To do Playfair justice once more he
fought hard for his client on TECHNICAL

was mistaken one; but the proof
was too conclusive. Judge and jury
alike believed that Fanning's story was
bold and by no means an ingenious
lie. He was found guilty and sentenced
to ten years of hard labor in the state
prison.
