the yield for 1891, but every one
knows that the latter was phenorn

the crop reached rs much as 500,-
100000 bushels, from which one
gets an idea OF the magnitude Of
the late years yield.
In estimating the effect Of this
extraordinary yield upon prices,
| it must be borne in mind, says the
0regohian, that an unusually large
surplus was carried over from the
great crop. Of the previous year,
EThere are no absolute statistics
for this surplus, but its relative
Quantity may be estimated from
The visible supply, Of which the
New I York produce exchange re-
lported the total early i'll January
to be 81. 1.294,0a0 bushels, against
45,G6S,075 bushels the previous
1.year, and bat 25,847,0 ,07a bushels
two years ago. In view }of the
surplus from the 1891 crop, it is
desirable to combine the tWo.years

riods. This comparison shows
totals for 1887 and 1883 Of S72,-
t197. 600 bushels; for 1889. and 1896
of 889, $4,000 bushels; and for
1891 and 1892 of 1,127,729,ooG
bushels. That is to say, the ex
cess for the last two years over the
two years before is 237, ,937, ,0oC
bushels, while the excess of those
two years over The two before
! themtis only 17,G25,900. Here is
over 200,0Oo,900 in excess OF the
natural increase for two years.
The extraordinary foreign de

excess, but it cannot account fol
all of it. There is undoubtedly 8

ever reported. In 1891 the aver
age was $50 cents, under the in

vailing.
The conclusion from this is a
simple and obvious as the explain
alton of the occurrence of lop

Special to THE MORNING CALL.

SANTA BARBARA, Honduras, March 15.-
Policarpo Bonilla. with an army of 1000
reyOlutOnists. is now encamped at Tarng a.
Around the town are intrenched the forces
commanded by General Vasquez. General
Bonilla's position is a strong one, and
although the beseging army under General
Vasquez is reported to contain $500 men,
more than three times the number of
Bonilia's army, the revolutionary general
stubb0rnly refuses TO surrender A rumor
has just reached here that a division of
Gonilla's army attempted to cut its way
through the lines of tAe besiegers. A hot
skirmish was the result Of the attack. but
it is not known how many we're killed and
injured OF which side was successful.
FasqueZ is making great efforts to secure
the moral support of General BOgran, eX-
President of Honduras. who has also been
requested to act in the interest of the other
side. Bogran has so far refused to have
anything to do with either faction. except it
be on the basis of an immediate cessation
OF hostiliues on each side and the agree
ment by both that the lives, liberties and
property Of all shall be safely guarded from
moleStation Of any kind. II this condition
be rejected Bogran viii leave Honduras and

throughout the country that BogrRn again
become President. The interests of for

PANAMA, March IS. - The Colombo an
authorities are endeavoring to arrest Gen.
eral Ruiz Sandoval, who was captured by
General Vasquez In Honduras and expelled
from that country. Sandoval was on his
way TO Tegucigalpa 10 join tine revolution
airy forces under Bonilla. He sought refuge
here in the house of a Colombian liberal
leader, but when informed that he was to
be arrested he sought an asylum In the
Venezuelan legation.
He says he intends to sail for La Guayra
on the first steamer if safe conduct is
granted him.
Late tonight word was received here an

HE CLOSED THE CASE
Made a Terrible Arraignment OF
Charles de Lesseps.
The Panama Director Threw Dust in
the Eyes of the People Of
France.
Special to THE MoRNINe CALL

PARIS. March 10. - There was a small
attendance to-day at the trial of Charles de
Lesseps and his fellOw-defendants. The
public interest appeared to have waned with
the close Of the testimony. Counsel re-
sumed their addresses. Legasse contended
that the Government had shrunk from pro =
ceedings against all the offenders concerned
in the case, and argued vehemently that the
scandal would not cease until the whole
truth was revealed. Rousselle spoke III q
similar tore.
The Advocate General delivered an earn
est address in behalf of the prosecution.
He maintained that the Government had
done the best it could to bring everything to
light, and denounced Charles de Lesseps as
having used articles to throw dust in the
eyes of the jury, in a similar manner to his
use of artitce TO obtain subscribers 10 the
Panama lottery bonds. He contended that
the evidence confirmed the guilt of defend
ants.
Continuing, the Advocate General made
somewhat extended reference to Frey
cinet, Floquet and Clemenceau and their
connection with the scandal, defending the
course they pursued and justilying the ad-
vice they gave Charles de Lesseps TO COM
ply with the demands made upon him rather
than become involved in lawsuit with
Baron de Reinach. The speaker then turned
his attention TO FOntaue aid Blondin, both
of whom he denounced in str0n g terms. He
then declared that the explanation made by
Sans-Leroy, that lie had reinvested 200, 900
francs Of his wfe's dowry at Just the time
lie was charged with having accepted that
SUN from the canal company for changing
his vote on the Panama lottery bonds bill,
would not hold water. The Advocate Gen
eral demanded that the defendants, Deputy
Dugue de LafaucOnnerie and ex-Deputy
Gorbon, should have the same punishment
meted out to them as would be imposed
upon Charles de Lesseps.
The Advocate General closed his address
with a graphic description of the poverty.
misery and general ruin which the Panama
failure had worked throughout France.
The court then adjourned.
Yielding to the urgent pressure on the
part of his colleagues Bourgeois will reas-
sumo the Office of Minister OF Justice.

President Cleveland Holds Out Hope
at Last

at ldSl.
WASHINGTON. March 15.-The California
delegation will meet tomorrow morning to
consider recommendations for Federal
Offices In California as ii Is understood that
the President has intimated desire to have
the delegation make suggestions. The dele
CATION has thus far maintained dignifed
attitude toward the President and the fact
that there has been complete harmony has,
no doubt, given it more influence than it
would otherwise possess. 1t Is Mr.. Can't
netti's idea that the delegation should 90
beyond recommendations for federal Offices
local to California, as California has not a
member Of the Cabinet nor an assistant
secretary, and not even the head of single
bureau or division, Notwithstanding the
fact that in many matters California. owing
to its varied resources. furnishes conditions
which, to great extent, make some of the
divisions necessary His idea Is to urge the
appointment of Californians to some of
these places, not only for the purpose of
securing official recognition, but for the
more important one of having friends at
court" as it were. when Cafornia's inter-
ests may be affected. Said he:
"1f California had an Assistant Secretary
of Agriculture our great fruit interests
would be guarded, or if we had such an Of
fcer In the Interior Department oar mining
and publc-land interests would be looked
after. The same would be true in any of
the subordinate places mentioned"
The President has accepted the resigna-
tion OF Governor n. NJ. Stone of Iowa,
Commissioner of the General Land Office,
to take effect the oath inst.
Among the applications for positions in
the service of the Treasury Department,
these have been filed: Collector of Customs,

How President Cleveland An
swered the Bishops.
Four of Them Went to the White
House, Not to the Profit of
the Chinese.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

WASHINGTON, March 15.-A very digni-
fed delegation was introduced to the Presi-
dent to-day by Bancroft Davis, Recorder of
the Supreme Court. 1t was composed of
four Bishops of the Episcopal church, Right
Reyerends Paret of Missouri, Potter Of
New York. Whitaker of Pennsylvania, and
Hare Of South Dakota. The object OF the
visit was to discuss with Cleveland the
Chinese exclusion law with relation to its
bearing on American interests in China.
They said that the strict enforcement of the
law would be apt to endaDger the property
and lives Of Americans. They told the
President that they came to him, not as
representatives of the church. but as citi-
zens, and that they had no suggestions to
make, but had simply come to confer with
him. and President Cleveland said in reply
that he had to enforce this as well as the
other laws of the country. The Bishops
admitted this but suggested that it might
be possible to mitigate in some degree the
seventies of the laws operations. The
President told them he would do what he
could, and the interview closed.
As If to re-enforce his statement TO the
Bishops. the President said 20 Mr.. Geary
to-day that the administration would enforce
the Geary law.
