The wheat harvest Of l890-91 is estimated 30 be
worth $50 900, 600. one half of which sum would
represent its export value. A large portion Of
the crop will be brought to Rosario for ship
ment by the recently completed railroad to

the statement that Secretary Blaine has
consented to be candidate for the
presidency should he be the unquestioned
choice of the Republican convention.
The Maine man is quoted as follows:
II attended q conference held at Port

tors Hale and Frye and Joe Manley, at
which the subject of Mr.. Blafne's candi-
dacy was discussed. Mr.. Manley an
nounced that he was authorized to say
for Blaine that he would accept the
nomination if it was rendered him with
unanimity. 1t was then and there
agreed that Maine should send Blaine
delegation to the convention, and these
results were communicated to a number
of Mr.. Rlaine's friends in other states.
''Mr. Blaine will be nominated. Mark
my prediction; not even President Har-
rison, with all the power of officeholders
at his back, could wrest the Nomination
from him, were he so disposed. There
will be but one name before the con-
vention-the magical name of Blaine
and he will be elected, too, whether the
Democrats run against him his former
competitor, Grover Cleveland, or an en-
tirely new man."

NEW YORK, Sept. S.-The World SAYS
the Western Union Telegraph company
and the American Bell Telephone COM
pany are about to engage in legal bat
tie IN which millions of dollars are in.
Eolved. By an agreement between the
corporations the telegraph company was
fc receive 70 per cent. of the receipts Of
tile telephone company for certain con-
cessions. In 1883 the Western Union
discovered that certain receipts were not
subjected to the 20 per cent, deduction
and began an action for an accounting,
involving Several million dollars. The
SUIT by the Western Union was begun in
the United States district court in the
District of Massachusetts,. John Lowell
made his report O few months ago. He
decided that the Western Union is not
entitled to the accounting asked for.
Slnce that report was made, the Western
Unlon experts have searched the records
OF fhe Bell patents and the previous de-
cislons of Judge Lowell in Bell Tele-
phpne cases. Now the comany will
mqye to reopen the case ON the ground
ofInewly discovered evidence. Should
this motion be disallowed they will
meve to set aside Judge Lowelrs report
report, ON the ground that a surprising
number of his near relatives hold large
amounts of Bell Telephone stock. The
Western Union will make it's first mo-
ton some time this month,
Ex-Judge Lowell is cousin of the
late James Russell Lowell, and has the
blue blood of Boston in his veins. He is
very eminent in his profession and has
written two volumes on bankruptcy
which have become standard authority.
