the ground was dry. Central and east
ern Kansas is reported to have escaped
without serious loss. Opinions on the
Minnesota crop are contradictory, but
it is likely to suffer IL the cold weather
is followed by a sudden thaw. Some
farmers think that In the absence OF
alternate freezing and thawing the
wheat has escaped damage. II 10
thought the Ohio crop was not far
enough advanced 10 be injured. In
eastern and central Nebraska wheat is
believed to have suffered severely, but
further north and west the recent now
fall has protected the growing plants.
It is feared that Indiana wheat has suf-
fered considerably, but il the cold has
not reached the roots, as is hoped, the
damage may not be as serious as feared.
A report from Sparta, ILL.,, says the crop
is badly damaged in one locality TO the
extent Of 90 per cent. 1t is thought
Michigan has escaped without serious
injury. North and South Dakota are
not in the winter wheat belt. In the
latter the melting now will benefit
spring, wheat. In the former planting Is
backward and the acreage OF spring
wheat will be one.third less than last

ture Immediately collapsed. There

ing close by. and many OF them, with
some OF the workmen, were hurled q
distance of half . block by the force of
the water. Frank Hogan, aged ia. was
instantly killed, and several others sus-
tanned injuries which may result
fatally. Three OF the water company
men were badly hurt, while two others
are missed and presumed to be under
the wreck. Two houses were
wrecked by the force Of the water.
while . half dozen others were blown
from their foundations and badly dam
aged. Barns and other small structures
were smashed to kindling wood. The
best obtainable total list OF casualties
footed up ave dead and o dozen injured.
The accident caused the widest excite
ment throughout the city, and the place
was soon thronged with sightseers. The
work Of rescue was being carried on by
the police and ambulance crews and fire
department.

20 feet in diameter. built of steel plate
t~hree-fourths OF an inch thick, and was
supplied from q 80, 600, 000-galion reser-
voir three miles back on the bluff, Civ
ing it q tremendous pressure. The re-
cent cold snap and subsequent thaw had
sprung the plates and caused leaks.
When the tower burst the spectators
were hurled from their feet and carried
along with the rush of water. Many Of

cradle distance escaped unhnrt. The

An explanation OF the premium on
wheat in the Duluth market over that
at Chicago is given by Duluth grain
men, based on the discovery in the
wheat store on the steamer j. Emory
Owen, Of Chicago, OF weevil. It was
claimed that the damage was slight, but
Duluth men claim to know that much
Of the cargo vas wormy, and that there
is reason to believe that OF the 100000
or more bushels OF wheat in store at
Chicago a very considerable portion has
been seriously damaged, and that it is
the fear of this which has caused the I'M
usual split in the prices on the Duluth
and Chicago boards.

that the secretary Of agriculture is to
appropriate 100000 among the
