CROP REPORTS UNRELIABLE.
Yield Much Larger Than Farmers
Will Admit.

YANKTON, S. D., Aug. 23.-If the
Orange Judd Farmer is no better in
formed upon the yield of wheat in
other counties of South Dakota than it
IS upon Yankton and adjoining coun-
tise, its estimates are of no value what
ever. This authority omits Yankton.
Bon Homme, Turner, Lincoln and
CHARLES Mix counties from it's calcu-
ladons of heavy yields. The time for
guessing the yield of every county in
this state has passed. In the southern
part of the state we know what the
yield of wheat is. In counties where
the yield Of wheat has gone as high as
55 bushels per acre the average cannot
be very low. That dozens of fields
have exceeded so bushels we have SUBJ
stantlal evidence. The actual yield
can never be known. but where we
have witnessed the dressings we
know that the yield is large. The
farmers have become imbued with the
idea that if they can only get the spec
ulators to believe that the yield is
light, prices will advance. Many of
these farmers are government crop re-
porters and reporters for the Orange
Judd Farmer. A government crop re-,
porter in this county had one field of
wheat that Weighed out 81 Bushels per
acre. He admitted t6 the Writer that
the average for YanBton county would
not be less than q bushels, but that.in.
his report to the government he had
estimated the county at IL bushels.

AMBASSADOR EUSTIS GRANTEES
PERMISSION TO VISIT
WALLER.
A VERY SLOW BUSINESS.
DELAYS CAUSED by THE AB-
SENCE OF THE FRENCH FOR
EIGN MINISTER.
CAsTINE AFFAIR BROUGHT UP.
to Be Recognized by Uncle
Sam.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-Oficials
of the state department We're graft
fed to learn today that Ambassador
Eustis had made move in the mat
ter of Waller and had carried out
portion of the instructions which
have been sent him. The depart
ment has felt that it's efforts in this
case have not been as ably seconded
at Paris as they might have been,
and Ambassador Eustis explains in
his dispatch that the delay has been
due ito the absence of the minister of
foreign affairs. The department be-
lieves that within a few days the
French government will make some
response to the request for the pa
pers in the case. 1t is recognized
that the French government is not
pie are inclined to be nettled at the
course pursued by the ambassador,
as shown in the resentment felt be-
cause the commander of the Castine
had failed to salute the French at
Tamatave. 1t is thought that much
may be made of this incident by the
French, in order still further to de-
lay the settlement of the Waller case,
but it is probable that the United
States authorities will not allow the
two things to be coupled, but will
insist that the Waller case must be
considered solely on its own merits.
The United States has not recog-
nized the French protectorate over
Madagascar, nor has it refused rec
ognition. Consul Wetter, who is at
Tamatave, is only acting consul in
one sense, as the United States has
never applied for nor received an
eXequatur from him. In advising
the commander of the Castine not to
recognize or salute the French the
department presumes that Mr.. Wet
ter has taken the right course and
knows what he is about, and will
act upon that assumption until
something to the contrary is learned
The effect this position of the consul
and the commander of the Castina
may have on the Waller claim is
altogether speculative. If French
control is not recognized in the
island, and in fact should be denied
by the United States government. it
would define clearly the issue and
make the claim of Waller indisputa-
bic from an American view point
but it is said that such a position
by the United States is not neces-
sary to the; establishment of the
Waller claim if Mr.. Waller received
his concession from de faoto gov
eminent.

NEW WAY OF PAYING THE ARMY
Money to Be Expressed From De-
Dartmenf HeadunDrtarS

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23-The new
army regulations will make some I'M
portant changes in the method of pay
ment of troops, and probably will be
found Objectionable to all officers who
command posts or companies Instead
OF sending paymasters to the various
posts throughout the country the rolls
will be made up at the Headquarters
OF the army department or at posts
where there is now located a pay head
quarters. These rolls will be accom-
panied by envelopes containing the
money due each officer and soldier, and
will be-sent to the eemmandant of each
pcs by express The commandant will
distribute the rolls and money to the
company commanders, and they will
pay the troops and make the return.
The object of the change is to save the
expense of mileage paid to paymasters
and their clerks, who under the pres
ent system travel from post to post to
make the payments. Hereafter paw
masters will remain at Headquarters.
ana perhaps in some instances nav
headquarters in the different depart
ments will be abandoned and consol-
ldated at the department headquarters.

NO SITE SELECTED.
Lutheran Synod Puts Matter Over
to a Later Date.

Special to the Globe.
RED WING, Mimi, Aug. 23.-The
church council of the Norwegian Luz
theran synod and the committee APP
pointed to select a site for Robbins
dale Lutheran seminary held a
meeting in this city to consider the
matter yesterday and today. Vari-
Gus views were expressed about the
location of the seminary and, after
the discussion Of the subject, 1T was
decided to do nothing at the present
time and to hold another meeting
in the near future, subject to the
call Of the president. A number of
the committee were opposed to re-
moving the seminary from Robbins
dale, unless Mr.. Robbins, who had
donated the site at that place, should
be paid for the land he had donated
to the seminary, although there is
no agreemnt with Mr.. Robbins which
would make this necessary. The
committee thought that the moral
obligation rested upon the synod to
pay him if the institution were taken
away. The Midway district had sew
! eral advocates, and La Crosse, Wis /;
Sioux Falls, S. D., and other sites
| were, Ito a certain extent, favored.
One reason for not deciding the mat
ter at the present time was to give
| the committee time to receive propo-
sitions from the cities that want the
institution and to see which would
very doubtful if a site can be select
ed even ait the next meeting, because
| a four-f1fths vote is necessary and
at present the committee seems
hopelessly divided. In that case the
matter will be referred to the annual
conference of the synod.

Manitoba Will Answer the Do
miniOn Government Today.
Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, Man., Aug. 23.-Rumor
is still rife regarding proposals for
compromise on the Manitoba school
question. The latest and silliest is that
the federal cabinet offers a bonus to
the Lake Dauphin railway, in which
certain local ministers and politicians
are interested, If Greenway makes a
certain concession to the Roman Cath
olics. 1t is pretty safe to say that no
such deal will be effected, unless the
parties to it mean to retire forever
from political life in this province.
Certain it is, the Manitoba legislature
will not ratify any such bargain. Pre-
mier Greenway knows too well that
long term of office is assured him if
he but stands firm in his present atti-
tude on the school question, and he is
not foolish enough to barter away his
future prospects for mere temporary
gain to himself and a few friends. The
cabinet meets tomorrow to draft
formal reply to the federal govern
ment's query as to how far Manitoba
will go in the way of compromise. 1t
is understood the reply will be to the
effect that the government cannot see
it's way clear at this juncture to make
any proposals in this direction.

Ex-senator Sanders Makes Sem
sational Address in N. p. Cases.
SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 23.-The
feature of today's proceedings ii. the
Northern Pacific receivership case
was a two hours address made by
ex-United States Senator Sanders,
of Montana, counsel for the COM
pany. While only the question of
jurisdiction has thus far been raised
in the case, Senator Sanders went
into the history of Wizards regime
and made sensational references to
the men who had been connected'
with the roads management. Other
arguments were made by Senator
John H. Mitchell, of Oregon, and ex-
Senator John B. Allen, of Washing
ton, both for the Farmers Loan &,
Trust company; by J. D. Crowley,
Of Tacoma, and ex-senator John G..
Spooner, of Wisconsin, both for the
receivers; and by Col. Silas w. Pet
tilt, who will close for the railroad
company tomorrow at noon. The adj
dresses of Senator Mitchell, eX-Sena-
tor Allen and Mr.. Crowley were di-
rected to the legality of the juris-
diction Of the Wisconsin court, and
the points they presented We're along
the Lines Of the argument made yes
terday by Counsel c. w. Bum, the
main point they endeavored to es-
talbish being that Judge Jenkins
court, having taken Jurisdiction
even under a defective creditors
bill, and that Jurisdiction having
been assented to by the defendant,
could not now be subjected to coll
lateral attack.
Ex-senator Spooner was allotted
only fifteen minutes, and he dwelt
on the main point emphasized by
his colleagues. Col. Petit began his
address at 80 and in his argument
was unsparing in characterizing as
collusfve the methods by which the
present management of the road
gained control. He declared that
the receivers and their adherents
mad misrepresented the facts to the
court and thereby succeeded in Sc
curing appointments here. Argu-
menf will be resumed at $50 tomor-
row.

SHUMAN HAD A KNIFE.
Reckless Use OF 1t Nearly Caused
a LynchinG.


Special to- the Globe.
WINONA, Aug. 23-Reports have
reached here of a serious stabbing
ARRAY that took place at Galesville,
near here, last night about 9 o'clock.
The result is that Harry Remondino
is in a very critical condition, and that
Galesville came near being the scene
of a lynching.
Harry Remondino and Edward Shu-
man have been poor friends for a long
time. Last night Ed went into a sa-
loon where Harry works and COM
menced using insulting words. He was
ordered out of the place. On reaching
the street he crashed a brick through
the front window. Harry Immediately
went out in pursuit, and found Shuman
standing under an electric light He
Immediately commenced administering
a whipping. Then Shuman pulled out
a long knife and gave Harry a slash
in the right thigh, making deep cut
some seven or eight inches long. Harry
fell and Shuman ran. A crowd, which
soon reached the size of a, small mob,
started in pursuit, and if Shuman had
been captured he would have met with
sudden end. Harry is reported today
as being very weak from loss of blood
and in a serious condition.

Can weld Copper and Steel.

ABERDEEN, S. D., Aug. 23.-The
dispatch from Pittsburg, Pa, which
has been running through the press of
the country, that one of the most
valuable discoveries of the age, that
of welding copper to steel, has been
made by three ironworkers of that
city, is of peculiar interest and con-
Germ to Two citizens of Aberdeen, John
T. Ronayne, a mail agent, and J. w.
they have been in possession of a pro-
cess whereby the metals above men,
toned have been repeatedly welded:
Any thickness of copper can be welded
to any thickness of iron or steel by
this method, which is further said to
be inexpensive and always sure, being
a weld and not coating. Samples of
the work have been and are now on
exhibition in several offices of the city.

NOTHING SERIOUS ABOUT 1T.
ChicaGo,s Drainage Canal Will
Not Hurt the Lakes

ChicaEo,s Drainage Canal Will
Not Hurt the Lakes.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-The report
of the board OF army engineers APP
pointed by the secretary of war to re-
port upon the effect the Chicago drain
age canal would have upon the waters
of Lake Michigan has been received
at the war department. Very little
can be learned as to the contents of
the report, although it is understood
that the board finds that the canal
probably would reduce the average
level of Lake Michigan about six
inches, and possibly Lake Huron the
same. This lower level no doubt would
be Objectionable to the shipping in
terests, but from the fact that the
lake has varied from one cause or an
other, such as a lack of rainfall or I'M
usual evaporation, more than one foot
in different years, ships have been built
with a view to accommodating them
selves to this reduced level. 1t is I'M
derstood that the position taken by the
board is that the former variations
are such as not to make this reduction
of six inches of very great Importance.
1t is therefore probable that the build
ing of the canal will not be stopped
by the government, though certain re-
strictionS may been determined upon so
as to not create any great waste of
water.

CHICAGO, Aug. 23.-George W.

Answer to the Canadian Govern
ment to Be Formulated
Today,

FARGO, N. D., Aug. 23.-One of
the most direful calamities which
has yet occurred since the wheat
harvest began this year in the
Northwest was the explosion of a
threshing engine, which alarmed the
residents of Hickson, a few miles
south of this city, this afternoon.
AS a result James Comfy, of SIT. Paul,
lies close to deaths door. The acct
dent is attributed to the inefficiency
of the engineer and his fireman,
Johnson, also of ST. Paul, who is also
seriously injured. Comfy lad three
ribs broken, his jaw bone was frac-
tured and he was badly scalded.
The engine was broken into a thous-

NON-UNIoNIsTs In HARD LUCK.
Thrown Out by Settlement of the
Superior Strike.

DULUTH, Mimi, Aug. 23.-Yester-
day afternoon forty men, who had
been laboring on the Superior docks
of the Northwestern Fuel company,
and had been brought from Milwaukee
by that company, came over here be-
cause the Superior authorities would
not feed or shelter them. Last night
they slept in the Duluth police sta
ton. The settlement Of the strike at
Superior has thrown them out of work
and they have no money with which
to return home. The company, they
claim, got them here on the state
ment that a large number of the men
had quit the docks to work in the Da-
kota harvest fields, at the same time
denying hat they were wanted to fill
the places of strikers. The company
refuses to pay their fares home. The
county and city officials will try this
afternoon to induce the company to
send the men home.
