10 ask the senate to proiong its daily
sessions into the evening, beginning with
to-day.
The state bank tax bill was under dis
cusslon hy the house to-day. The ques-
tlon has been debated until the leaders
are anxious for II vote. But the debate
has shown the state bank men that they
are liable to be defeated by inability to
agree Oh any one of the many plans dis
cusSed. As the state bank principle was
incorporated in the Democratic national
platform the leaders are 10th to see the
bill defeated, so that caucus to-day or

October Returns to the Agricultural De-
 pertinent Indicate a Big Yield.
 WAsHINGToS, Oct. 27.-October re. turns to the department of agriculture make the general condition of corn 64.2, against 6S4 last month. The postponement of frosts has been favor. able to the ripening of areas ordinarily late in maturing. Although there has been some changes in the condition, taking the states individually, the gen. eral condition has not materially diff. fered from that of September, the vari. atlon, however, being for the better, even though slight
 The October condition in the year 1881 was 65 per cent. the lowest up to that date shown by any official record. The yield per acre of that year was ls.6 bushels. The indicated yield per acre for this year from condition of 62. is 1s.4 bushels per acre. The acreage of 1881 was 64, 4,262, ,000. The acreage for this year, which has been reserved for harvest, after an estimated abandon ment, except for fodder, etc, of 15, 5OO,- 900 has been deducted, is 50, 300. .OOO. The indicated crop will therefore be about S2,O0O bushels less than that of 1881, and the lowest production since 1874.
 In most of the southern states the condition of corn has fallen since the last report, but in some of the western states there has been slight gains in condition. The averages of conditions in the large and surplus corn growing states are as follows: Tennessee, sS; Ohio, Fl; Kentucky, 77; Michigan, 56; Indiana, 7s; Illinois, IS; Wisconsin, 54; Minnesota, 30; Iowa, 47; Missouri, 70; Kansas, 45; Nebraska, 14; South Dakota, A; North Dakota, so; California, 94.
