Two Warships Sent TO venexuela.

BROOKLYN, Aug. 3L-The United States
cruiser Concord will arrive at the navy
yard today and will have her coal bunkers
refilled as soon as possible, The Concord
has been ordered to Venezuela to protect
the rights of American citizens and to en-
force redress, if necessary. for the recent
taking of political refugees from the
decks of an American passenger steamer.
NEW YORK, Aug. 30.-WEen the United
States warship Kearsage was about to sail
from this port the people were given to
understand that the old vessel was bound
for Honduras. Instead Of going there,
however, she went to Port-au-Prince. A
Washington City dispatch now says the
vessel has been ordered instead to proceed
from Port-au-Prince to Sar. Domingo and
thence to La Guayra, Venezuela So far
as the navy department is advised she 10
to make this trip for the purpose Of con-
veying Minister Durham on his usual
semi-oceasional visits of inspection to San
Domingo. 1t is rumored.s however, that
the present movement of Minister Dur
ham to San Domingo is to close negotia-
tions for the purchase of Samana bay as a
coaling station. The president, it will be
remembered, has at his disposal $3.50, 900
for procuring coaling stations, and it is
thought not unlikely that part of this
may be expended on Ssmaha bay and the
remainder on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.

Moro Smallpox Cases at Victoria.

PORT TOWNSEND. Aug. 30.-[Special. l.
Reliable information from rep
utable authority was received to-
day from Victoria stating that
two cases of smallpox were discovered in
the vicinity of Government and Cora
mount streets, Victoria, last Satur-
day afternoon. The patients were re-
moved to the pesthouse. The Victoria
papers made no mention of the fact, and
it was apparent that the authorities
were trying to suppress the matter.
Some of the Victorians, according to
the report, were incensed because the
health officers did not officially report the
cases. Victoria is very apprehensive lest
quarantine again be declared by the
Puget sound cities.
At last accounts there were twenty-one
cases Of smallpox at Victoria, and two at
Snohomish.
VICTORIA, Aug. 3d.. +. Jenns. who
was quarantined almost two weeks ago by
Vancouver authorities, threatens to bring
suit for 81, 500.
Fumigation of mails for the Sound
ceases tomorrow unless orders to the con-
trary are received.

Need Of Rain for Late Crops and Cattle
Ranges-Aphis In Spokane County.
OLYMPIA, Aug. 30.-Following is the
weather crop bulletin tor the week ending
Monday, August %:
In Western Washington the tempera-
ture this week has been somewhat above
the average. The nights have, however,
been cool with fogs nearly all the week.
Light rains fell in the northern Sec
tions and on the Coast on the 23d
and oath. A general need of rain is
felt for the growth of all late vegetables.
grains, young fruit trees and the second
hay crop, though the second crop of
clover is maturing fairly we'll in
many sections and promises a good
yield. Potatoes continue to be affected
in increasing numbers by the blight in
much of the northern portion and in Che
halls and Wahkiakum counties, and in
these portions of the state the crop will
be short. Grains in all sections are re-
turning a good yield, and in many
the yield is very heavy, especially of oats.
Hops have improved generally in the last
ten days, and the prospects for good
yield are very good. both in quantity and
quality. Picking will begin on Wednes-
day or Thursday of the present week.
In Eastern Washington-The weather
in this portion of the state has been much
the same as that of the preceding week,
warm days and cool nights with heavy
dews. Light local showers fell in
many sections on the 23d and oath,
delaying the harvest but not seriously.
The rain was Of benefit to all fruit and
vegetable crops. Cutting and threshing
of grain goes rapidly on with, in most
cases. more favorable results than were ex-
pected up to the beginning Of har-
vest. The wheat, though in some cases
shrunken. is generally of excellent quail
ity. Fruit is doing fairly we'll in the
southeast quarter of the state. In Spokane
county considerable damage has been done
by the aphis. In Whitman county and
the other southeastern counties. while
this has done some damage to fruit in the
forepart of the season, it is now disappear
ing TO great extent. Corn promises very
good yield wherever planted. The ranges
are getting dry and stock cattle are becom-
ing thin. f. B. OLSEY,
