NEW YORK, Aug z2.-The Wall street
with the leading bullion brokers of this
city today the silver question in con-
nection with the war between China and
Japan. The drift of opinion is that up to
the present time the demand for silver has
come from speculat tors. They profess to
know of no direct buying for China. and
say that in making prices they entirely
follow the London market.
A prominent bullion broker said today's
rise in silver was probably assisted by the
introduction yesterday by Mr.. Johnson. of
North Dakota, of bill for the unlimited
coinage Of silver. The demand has not
been very heavy during the past few days.
and there was a disposition the part of
London to deal in futures silver, from
which it is concluded that the purchasing
was not for immediate shipment on buying
orders from China, but rather in expecta-
ton of an advance.
AT the New York agency of the Hong
Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation
1t was said that after the rise following the
outbreak of the China-Japan war; the hold
ers of silver in this country did not dis
play any anxiety to sell, and that the Of
feringS by the smelterS was very light UNI
til today, when the offerings became very
large
There had BEEN it said, some small
buying for China, but the great bulk of the
purchases were undoubtedly speculative
The volume of business not heavy in
the ordinary channels of business and
hence 1t was certainty that a source of
supply was open to the London buyers, Of
which the general business public was not
aware. The recent Chinese loan of 0,00e. 900
taels, equal to $4,000 of our money was q
silver loan, but if large war loan We're
issued it would likely be in gold. The
uses to which the money would be put
the purchase of war material, the fitting
out of war vessels and the payment of
debts contracted out of China for war
purposes-inclined the agency to the be-
lief that gold would be demanded and that
therefore a Chinese loan should not neces-
Sariy result in advancing the price of sill
Yer. The agency was not heavy buyer
of silver just now and diG not look for
any great additional rise. 1t had large
offerings today and thought that perhaps
the shelters had held their product too
long.

SPREAD OF THE THISTLE.
Its Appearance i'm Idaho Considered

Its Appearance in Idaho Considered
Very Serious Matter.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 22.--The di-
vision of botany in the United States de-
partment of agriculture is in receipt of
authentic advices on the appearance of the
Russian thistle in various new localities.
Bulletin No. 10 of that division contains
oolored maps showing the territory in
which it has been found to the close of
1893. 1t has since been reported from the
following places:
Hammond, Lake county, Ind; Cannon
Lyon county, Mimi; Northwestern Jeffer-
son county, Neb.; Blue Hill, Webster coun-
ty, Neb.; Stockville, Frontier county. Neb:
Parks, Dundy county, Neb; La Sale, Void
county, Col; Nampa, Ada county, Idaho;
and Manitoba, Canada.
In almost all these localities 1t has ap-
peared only along the line of railroads and,
with the exception of Nampa, Idaho, is
now officially reported for the first time.
The occurrence of the Russian thistle in
Idaho is regarded by the botanist of the
he urges its immediate and complete eradi-
cation from that state. The region already
infested by the Russian thistle lies in the
plains east of the Rocky mountains and is,
therefore, separated by this great natural
barrier from the wheat raising areas of
Utah. The only way in which it can enter
this area is by introduction in impure
seed and by transportation through the
passes of the Rocky mountains. especially
along railroads. Every endeavor should be
used by the farmers and civil authorities
OF this region to eXterminate it along the
railroads, and to use only the cleanest and
best seed wheat Obtainable. If the Russian
thistle once infests this region it's next step
will be to cross the Sierra Nevada into the
wheat areas of central California. The i'm
portance. therefore, of precautionary meas
ures along the great mountain chains is
clearly apparent.
From about the 18th of August to the 1st
of September the Russian thistle begins to
produce it's seed, and, being an animal the
effectual method of checking it's progress
Is to kill the plant by cutting blowing and
narrowing during or before this time. In
the case of wheat fields which are already
infested the grain should be harvested as
early as possible, the stuhble left long, the
whole field moved close to the ground, and
after few days drying burned over. Fields
thicky infested may require in addition
blowing and thorough narrowing.

Charleston, S. c., June l6.-A delega-
ton of the Augusta German Guards
came TO Charleston this week, to invite
the German Fusileers TO go to Augusta
and participate in the festival to be given
by that company on June ~. The Fusi-
leers wish to accept the invitation, but
they are in the predicament of not know
ing whether they are at liberty to do so.
Their captain s name is mentioned in the
report of the military court of inquiry on
the conduct OF the Fourth brigade in the
Darlington affair, in connection with the
recommendation for ensure and repri-
mand.
This report is still held in allegiance by
Gov. Tillman, who is supposed TO be con
sidering the question OF ordering a court
martial, ana consequently the invitation
of the German Guards to their Charles
ton brother soldiers is likewise held in
allegiance.

The Drought Severe, but Field Crops

Sandersvilie, Ga, June 16.-The pro-
tracted drought in this section has been
broken by few local showers. Expert
enced farmers assert that the field crops
have not been injured, and it is their
opinion that if the drought does not last
too long there will be no serious conse-
quences. Rain that is now withheld will
probably be precipltated at time when
the crops need it most Gardens. how
ever. have been parched to n crisp, and
but few vegetables are available.
There has been an unusual demand for
field peas Many farmers of Washington
county turn their hogs into their pea
fields in the fall TO fatten, and do not save
enough SEED for planting. George Gil
more of Warthen, has solved this prob
lem by raising variety of field peas that
require no second planting after they are
allowed to mature. Enough will drop
from the hulls to insure crop the next
year, or they can be planted in the fall
when oats are sown, and will come up
after the oat crop is cut in the following
spring.
