CROP REPORT.
The Outlook Is Not as Bad as Was
Expected.


SACRAMENTO. June 11.-Direetor Bar
wick of the California Weather Service,
in his crop bulletin for the week ending
June IL, summarizes as follows: The con-
tinuati0n Of abnormally cool, cloudy
weather has greatly benefited ali summer
crops, but is retarding very much the
ripening of fruit aud the curing of hay.
The excessive and unprecedented rain
fall in the San Joaquin Valley has injured
considerable hay, and with the wind and
sandstorms has injured somewhat the
fruit by blowing it off the trees.
The fruit crop from one end of the State
to the other will be heavy one, except in
Modoc, Lassen aud portions of Siskiyou
counties, where late frosts killed the buds.
Late grain has made wonderful i'm
provement in the central portions of rhe
State. and in places here ripe for harvest
the ground is too wet TO bear the COM
bined harvesters until dried out by contin-
uous sunshine and northerly winds.
The grape crop Is reported from poor to
fair and good.
The honey crop will be much smaller
than usual in Southern California, the
honey-prodncing section OF the State.
Highest temperature 90. at Huron,
Fresno County, and lowest 3d. at Yreka,
Siskiyou County.

ARMoR THAT is VERY DEFECTIVE
Valuable and Sensational Evidence
From Informers at the Car
negie Works.

WASHINGTON, June II. - The armor
plate investigating committee intends TO
make a new move toward locating weak
spots on warships. II is expected the
Navy Department will be asked TO take off
certain plates of the CUNT boat Machias and
subject them 10 tests. The Machias is now
in the Brooklyn navy-yard. Her condition
is such that it is believed that certain de-
fective plates can be traced by specific
numbers and when located can be put to a
test
Lieutenant Alderman was again before
the committee to-day. He gave the his
tory of the plates with vie " to locating
their present whereabouts. He also gave
additional evidence Of the methods of
work of the Government inspection at the
Carnegie works.
The witness said the Carnegie Company
knew in advance what plates would be
selected from the groups for tests. The
irregular cold water baths secretly given
to plates was disclosed by some of the in
formers, aud would make the plates
strueturally weak and subject to be
cracked by a shot. The evidence of one
of the in formers located such a plate on
the coming tower of the New York.
dence of one of the informsrs. This was to
the effect that he had received the Govern
ment stamp from Lieutenant Wilmer, who
had charge of the stamp. KountZ in
his testimony went on to give numerous
hearsay reports as to witness habits. 1t
was stated that the lieutenant played
cards and drank during the evening at
hotel near the works. a young woman
employed at the ho,el had told the in
former of having helped the officer to his
room on one occasion.
AS TO the armor Of the Terror, Lieu
tenant Alderman said be had visited the
ship and located two plates containing the
defects disclosed by the informers The
plates contained small holes which had
been plugged up. The condition of the
plates was kept from the public in order
that the investigation might proceed and
that possible injustice to the company
might be avoided.
Lieutenant Alderman located a number
of plugged plates in the Monterey. An
other plugged plate was located in both
The Cincinnati and Monterey. Another
defective plate was said TO be in the Ma
chias.
Lieutenant Alderman presented state
ment which was regarded by the commit
tee as very important, as it gave the vaTi-
Gus ships of the navy on which the defec-
tive srmor-plates are located, with the
exact location Of each plate. OF these
plates the defects are of various kinds and
degrees of seriousness.
Lieutenant Alderman believed the su-
perintendent of works responsible for the
irregularities. and while the superin-
tendent was too shrewd to give orders tor
such Irregularities he had indirect infu-
ence in bringing 1t about. This closed
Lieutenant Ackerman's evidence The
committee regards it as the most valuable
vet given.

Eddinger and o. Hampton left Weaver
vile yesterday morning with Jose &
Ellery freight team. When they reached
Browns Mountain Eddingsr commanded
Hampton to hand over the company's
money. about $3.50. The request was CON-
piled with, and the robber told Hampton

DECLARES A BOYCOTT
Western Passenger Association
and the Erie.
Agreements Are Violated and Rate.
Cutting 20 Western Points
Is Resumed.

CHICAGO, June 1.-THE Western Pas
senger Association has practically decided
to declare boycott against the Lake Erie
and Western road unless that line consents
to withdraw its rate of S24 rs for the round
trip between Indianapolis and Denver for
the meetings of The league of Republican
clubs which will be held in Denver the
latter part of this month.
The rate in connection with the Chicago
and Alton and the Union Pacific and those
two lines after the summer excursion
agreement WAS made between the associa-
ton declared that they were unable 10
carry out their portion of the contract
Notwithstanding this notice the Lske Erie
and Western has continued to announce
that the rate is still in effect. The asso-
citation lines have now informed it that
unless it promptly issues notice that the
rate has been Cancelled no line of the
Western Passenger Association will honor
any ticket of the Lake Erie and Western,
no matter for what issued. The Lake
Erie and Western has as yet made no
answer to the notice.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 1.-THE SIS
round trip rate from Kansas City to Colo
RADIO points announced some weeks ago
will stand. The Western Passenger Asso-
citation has approved it. The Central
Traffic Association has made rate of one
fare for the round trip from all Eastern
points to the Missouri River for those Who
buy through tickets. A rate of S24 20 from
Indianapolis to Denver and return is being
made by the Erie in connection with the
Chicago and Alton and Union Pacific
lines. The Vandalia, in connection with
the Burlington, has made the same rate
for July on account of the Shriners meet
ing in Denver in July. The rate is made
by charging S14 between indianapolis
and Kansas City, and $40 70 between
Kansas City and Denver. There will be
many chances to visit Denver or other
Colorado points this summer at rate of
SO for the round trip.
OMAHA. June u.-Associate Justice
Brewer arrived in the city this evening and
on Wednesday he and Judge Dundy will
begin the hearing of the maximum freight
rate bill. The constitutionality of the bill
is attacked by the railroad as being un-
just, unreasonable and could not be en-
forced. The case grows out of the at
tempted enforcement of the Newberry
freight-rste bill. The brief in the case
covers 100 printed pages.

PHOENIX, AriZ., June 1.-The grand
water-storage proposition on the Rio Verde
has at last assumed tangible shape. A
1900. 600 contract has been let at Indian
apOlis, Ind. to construct storage and
diversion dams and 100 miles of canal by
January l, 1896.
The storage damsite is located between
60 and 20 miles northeast of Phoenix. This
dam will raise water $50 feet. The base
will be 260 feet and the breadth across the
stream will be 800 feet. The material used
will be rock, laid by hand. with the upper
face cemented with asphalt sufficient to
be impervious TO the wear and teal of
floods. This structure is intended TO inn
pound flood waters.
Below 1t some fifteen or twenty miles on
the same liver q dam is to be built To
divert the water into the canal. which will
follow down the Verde some thirty miles,
and crosses the Mcdowell divide quarter

westerly along the east flank of the White
Tank Mountains to the southeast corner
of that range.
The country lying between these moun-
tans and the Aqua Frio, or Excelsior

MR.. QUAY WAS RlLED.
Denounced a Lying" Newspaper
Dispatch.
He Denied That He Was Seeking to
Get Control of Washing.
ton Railroads.

WASHINGTON, June 11.-Mergau was
granted the privilege of addressing the
Senate at the opening of the session to-day
in support of his amendment to the naval
appropriation bill authorizing the appoint
ment OF the Superintendent of the United
States Naval Observatory from civil life at
a salary of $1,000 and providing for the re-
organization Of the observatory.
Quay rose to question of privilege and
sent to the clerks desk what he charac-
terized Lying statement. for which
Senator Chandler is given as authority"
1t proved to be a Washington dispatch
to New York paper that alleged Phila.
deiphia syndicate, in which Quay was an
active agent, was seeking to get control
Of the surface roads of Washington
through Congressional legislation" The
dispatch stated the scheme was as NAL
odorous as the sugar trust scandal.
The statements contained in the article
Quay said. were absolutely false. The
facts we're that certain citizens of Phila-
delphis had corporate interests in cert ain
railroads in the District of Columbia and
were seeking an enlargement of the scope
of their frab chises. At the request of
Thomas Dolan he introduced Philadeip hia
gentlemen to Mcmillan aud Faulkner. of
the District of Columbia Committee. so
they could present their case. Last Fri
day. being informed the bill affecting the
interests OF this corporation would be un-
der consideration in the House to-day. he
asked some of the members of the delega.
tion from Pennsylvania to be present to
help constitute quorum. That was the
extent of his connection with the matter.
Quay said he had departed from the Gus
tom of treating with silent contempt
100000 newspaper lies about him, because
the article was evidently written with the
purpose Of affecting legislation to-day and
because Chandler had been given as
authority for the statements contained
therein.
Chandler said he had heard of this syn
dicate, perhaps discussed the matter with
newspaper men. but knew little about it.
Certainly he ha0 made no remarks attrib-
uting motive or relations to any Senator.
Quay suggested, with broad smile, that
this newspaper fabrication be referred to
the Scandal Committee" of which Gray
was chairman. 1t was so referred.
The tariff bill was then taken up.

United States and that if it was agreeable
he would send Tor him. That man was
