WHEAT AND CORN .
The Quantity of Each Crop in the
Hands Of the Producers.

Hands Of the PRODUCERS.
Washington. March lO.-The statisti-
cal returns of the department Of agricul-
ture for March consist principally Of esti-
mates of the distribution OF wheat and
corn, the amounts remaining in farmers
hands the proportion Of merchantable
corn. and the average prices of both the
merchantable and understandable The
report is based upon returns of a corps of
correspondents in each county Of the sew
eral states and territories, and also by an
independent corps equal in number re
porting to the statistician through the
state agents of the department All grain

surplus of the previous year, is embraced
IN the estimates given.
The returns of the cores pOudents of
the department throughout the great
wheat surplus states indicate new

stock a fact due. as declared, to the uu-
precedeutedly low prices the claim being

WHAT THE FARMERS HOLD.
The returns also Indicate that very
In the farmers hands comes from crops
prior to that of 1893, and especially from
the crops of 1892. Such stores have
been held principally by large growers.
Some damage to such stores is reported
from Michigan and Washington. The
indicated stock OF wheat IN
farmers hands is 1l4,O6O, 900 bushels,
or 288 per cent. of the volume
of the crop of 1898 This is
nearly q 900 600 bushels less than the
estimate for March last year, and nearly
O,000, 900 less than the average Of the
past eight years The amount remaining
in the farmers hands in the eleven prin-
cipal wheat growing states is about
$4,000, 900 bushels or SO S per cent. of the
amount in producers hands in the country
at large. The average weight Of the crop
of 1898 per measured bushel, as calculat-
cd from correspondents and millers and
state agents is SO pounds, making the
estimated product little over 3Sl,500,O00
commercial bushels as against 1906, 10000
measured bushels as heretofore reported.
THE CORN HELD BY GROWERS.
The corn in the producers hands as es-
timated, aggregates $50, OO0, 900 bushels,
or 1854 per cent. OF the crop of 1898. This
proportion is less than for any year in the
past FIVE, except that of 1891.
The aggregate of the corn in the far
mers' hands in the surplus states Of Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois, iowa, Missouri, Kansas
and Nebraska is 81. i per cent of that in
farmers hands in the entire country,
being in quantity 300, 600, 600 bushels.
The proportion of merchantable corn is
1856 per cent. of a present average value
of S4.9 cents a bushel. The unmerchant-
able averages 1922 cents per bushel
The official and commercial estimstes
of the worlds wheat crop for 1893 makes
so, 100000 bushels less than last year.
The final estimates will probably still
further reduce the total for 1898, as the
preliminary estimates for Russia and
Germany are generally reduced by the
final estimates

D. A. ]. Sullivan Withdraws and the
Race Left to Stokes and Izlar.
Charleston, S. c., March 10-The race
for congress from this district has mar
rowed down now to a combat between
Ocalaism and pure democracy.
D. A. J. Sullivan, who had entered the
race at the instigation of Senator Irby,
to-day Withdrew. Here is his letter:
To the Citizens Of Charleston and the First
Congressional District. Having announced
myself as candidate for congress TO repre-
sent the First congress iOnal district, I felt
that / was not transPressing any rights not
accorded to any citizen. l have ALWAYS as
sured my friends that 1 was not in the race
for the purpose Of assisting IN the election of
Mr.. stokes. out on the contrary was assured
by some friends of Mr. Stokes that he
would withdraw from the contest. After
waiting reasonable time for him to fulfill
that promise, and feeling satisfied that he
will not withdraw and not wishing to be the
cause of any discOrd or unpleasant feelings
existing between my friends ana supporters
as to what my motives We're I desire to state
that Mr.. Stokes, or no other man will ever
use me IN any triangular contest
OF this character when the same is
10 be construed into lending aid to any
person not III sympathy with my people NV
regard for harmony and unanimity among
my fellowcitizens is OF more importance to
me than any benefit from any public once
cHu III otutI ludt no lufLner QlSCOrd shall
exist among my fellowcitlzens on account OF
my aspirations, hereby announce my with
drawal from the candidacy for congress from
the First congressional district and urge my
friends to cast their vote and give their sup
port to the Hon. J. f Izlar.
ID. A. j. SULLIVAN
The story Of Mr.. Sullivan's race for con
gress is a curious one. 1t is understood
that Senator Irby sent for him and told
him to run, promising that j. w. Stokes,
the alliance candidate, would not enter
the field. Senator Irby appears not to
have been able to deliver the goods.
Mr.. Sullivan has strong following in
Charleston, as is evinced by the fact that
he was elected at tile head of the demo-
cratic legislature ticket, in spite Of the
fact that he voted for Senator Irby
against Wade Hampton for the United
states Senate. But with Stokes in the
held, he was unable to control his vote
Izlar will now probably secure the cleo
ton by a large majority unless he is
counted out by the reformers.
