Weather Crop Bulletin, agi

'. S Department of Agriculture weather crop bulletin No. 3 of the Arizona Weather Service, for the week ending April Both. 1894:
 The weather of the past week has been characterized by abnormally low temperatures oyer large portion oi the territory
 There has been the usual percentage of clear weather, which was almost continuous.
 No rainfall has been reported from any section.
 The weather has apparently been favorable in gratifying degree to all irrigated crops, and nearly all reports are of a decidedly encouraging character.
 The following extracts selected from reports of correspondents and from the local papers show the conditions in separate localities.
 Yuma County, Yuma: The weather has been beneficial to crops of all kinds, and to fruit. The growth of all kinds of fruit, grain.  grass and vegetables has been wonder ful. Grapes in the valley are as large as peas, figs are full grown and turning ripe;oliveand lime trees never before hung so full of fruit.
 Early hay already cut yielded two and half tons per acre; alfalfa yield ed from one to two tons per acre. Crops promise to be the best that have been produced for years.
 Palomas: Farmers are all busy cutting barley and alfalfa; crop very good, seldom or never better. Corn, beans, potatoes and all garden crops growing finely during the last week. Some damage was done by high winds the last three days to barley and wheat where the ground was wet from irirgating. There is plenty of water as yet, but if drouth continues much longer some crops will suffer.
 Yavapai county, Prescott: Weather remains warm and dry; the first of the week previous did more damage than was at first supposed. Rain IS badly needed, though wheat on low lands looks well without irrigation Ranchmen are blowing for corn, and planting potatoes.
 Maricopa county, Phoenix: The cutting of alfalfa IS in active progress. The grain crop is rapidly maturing; most of it will need no further irrigat- ing; the crop IS better than last year. Oranges of the Arizona Improvement Company are now as large as marbles and the blossoms are all gone, staying but few days The trees were late in blossoming, but have since made up for the delay in the rapidity with which the fruit IS forming. The crop will be phenmoenal inquantity, Olive trees throughout the valley are heavily ladeu with blossoms.
 This will be one of the most pros porous years for the fruit industry that this section has ever known.

NEW YORK, March l9-New York 5
crack battery. Rusie and Farrell, are on
strike. They have made exorbitant de-
mands in the way OF salary, and threaten
to quit the diamond unless they are
granted. The New York club officials.
however, say they can't be bluffed, and
have taken determined stand. Last year
Rusie received salary of S2.4OO, which
was as much as any other league pitcher
received. When Ward sent him con-
tract some time ago Offering the same
terms as last year he failed to reply.
Ward wrote him again last week,
asking him why he did not sign. aud to-
day an answer came saying that he would
not play bail unless the club paid him a
salary the amount of which was so large
that it took Wards breath away.
Farrell received s.. 600 for his services in
Washington last year. In a letter 10
Ward, Farrell says he should be we'll re-
munerated tor coming to strong club,
and winds up by offering to put his name
to a contract for n salary larger than any
of the New York players will receive, to-
gether with request for 81, 900 oil the pur-
chase money paid to Wagner for his
release.
After a conference with Treasurer Tai
colt today Ward wrote letters TO the re-
fractory players. He informed Rusie that
his offer TO him would be final, ana that
he could accept 10 or not, as he might see
fit. He sent word to Farrell that the club
would pay him as much money as he re-
ceived in Washington, but that he would
have TO settle the s, 900 question with the
Wagners.
For every day after April Farrell and
Rusie will be docked, as their contracts
take effect on that date.

Mr.. Hainer of Nebraska criticised Sc
verely the work of the Missouri river COM
mission. or the a, OOO, 600 SO far appro-
priated. 81 500, 900 had been used Tor the
same reach of fourteen miles as JeHer-
son City: At the present rate IL woula
Sioux City. The Missouri river commits
sion proposed to expend over S6oO,ooo OF
the sum carried by this paragraph on the
first reach above Kansas City. NOT one
dollar was to be used at Omaha, Atchi-
son, Leavenworrh and the other cities up
the river where the missouri was maAins
great entertainments.
Mr. Picker Is ID advocated an amend
ment to divert 100000 of the appropria.
ton for the Missouri to the stretch OF
$500 miles above Sioux City.
Mr.. Heard (Mo.) defended the Missouri
river commission and the money expended
at Jefferson City.
Mr.. Mercer (Neb.) advocated his amend
ment to set aside $50, 900 OF the Missouri
appropriation for the removal OF snags
and distractions above Sioux City, ana
s150, 900 for the construction, repair anG
maintenance of revetments, clkes anu
water works between the south line Oh
Nebraska and Sioux City.
After few closing words by Mr. CaOcn-
irgs, warning the house against deInor9i-
iZing the Syste matte work done by the
commission by parccliiug out portions OF

pending amendments. The first was Mt.

graph in the bill was that relating TO
soldiers homes, against two clauses OF
which (placing the disburslng ofhcers OF
the homes under;bond, and requiring an
annual report of the conditions CT the
homes to the secretary OF war;.
Mr.. Black had raised point of order.
Mr.. Black of Illinois, one OF the mem
bers of the board of managers OF national
homes. opposed the two clauses referred
to. Congress. he said. had dealt munifi-
Gently with this board. Over $4,000
900 had been appropriated; not one
dollar had been lost. Suits for
recovery were pending against General But
ter's estate in Massachusetts,, and recent
treasurer in Wisconsin. Some 3,OUO old
soldiers were maintained at these homes.

WASHINGTON, March 19-The American
fleet at Rio, the largest assembled in a
foreign port since the war, will be thing
of the past in day or two and the ships
will be scattered north and south, The
San Francisco was the first to get away
and she sailed yesterday for Bluefelds
with Admiral Benham on board.
She will stop at ST. Lucia, near
Barbados, for coal 1t was the in
tention Of the navy department TO
keep the remaining vessels at Rio for
a week or two longer until it was certain
no further trouble was to be apprehendec,
but the program was abandoned this after
noon upon the receipt Of the following
cableeram from Captain Phillips of the
New York, the commanding officer OF the
feet after Admiral Benham's departure:
Rio DE JANEIRO, March 10.
Secretary Navy. Washington.
Rio harbor is clear of foreign men OF
war, except the New York and the Char
lesion, The Detroit will sail for Hampton
Roads The Portuguese vessel was the
last to leaye. It is reported here that Da-
Cana was a passenger on her.
The fever is increasing In violence and
has reached the epidemic state, SO that the
British steamers coming northward Will
not touch Rio It does not appear there
is any further necessity Tor Keeping an
American man-of-war here as the instr
rection has been put down, and a longer
stay of the vessels would be injudicious.
[Signedl PHILLIPS.
Immediately upon the receipt of this
dispatch, Secretary Herbert sent orders to
the New York to proceed north to the
West Indies. She will probably touch at
St. Nicholas mole. or some other
cable port and receive further or
ders. The Charleston was directed 10
go to Montevideo, where she will probably
get orders to proceed to the Pacific station.
The New ark, now at Montevideo, will re-
main there as the flagship of the station,
supported by the Yantic.
