California Farmers VIII Lose Many
Thousands of Dollars.
Stockton, Cal, May 5.-The farmers
of San Joaquin and adjoining counties
in the great wheat belt of California
are finding cause for complaint on ac-
count of the ravages Of new grain
destroyer. The work is said to be that
of the aphis, an insect belonging to the
hemipe ra family. A good many hun
dreG acres of 'late-sown wheat are af-
fected, and the crop will be shortened
TO that extent. The ap1is attacks the
roots Of the growing plant and leaves
a web or sort of film about each sep
arate root, killing it and destroying
the plant.
After the aphis has attacked a field,
the grain ceases growing and the
blades ta4ke on a color and appearance
very similar to the rust. The reports
from Stanislaus county indicate that
the farmers there are worse sufferers
than those in San Joaquin county Mr..
Fox, who has annually several thous-
and acres in grain, sends word that
at least 300 acres Of wheat are in pos
session of the aphis. There was much
late-sown grain, and only a percent
age Of it has escaped.

Join the Rebels.


Join the Rebels.
Madrid, May 5.-General Calleja, for
merly captain general of Cuba, has ar
river here from Havana. In an inter-
view he stated he was aware of the be-
ginning of the rising in Cuba, and was
informed as to the movements of the
filibusterers in the United States, and
the separatists in Cuba. He was, how
ever, powerless to prevent the rising in
the eastern end of the island owing to
the want of organized troops, and the
scarcity of war material. He had only
5000 soldiers and 1000 raw recruits,
force not adequate to garrison the towns,
let alone to take the field against the
rebels. Though he was aware that fill
clustering expeditions were being organ
lied in Eayti. Tampa, Key West and
Costa Rica and elsewhere. he had only
seven inferior gunboats to watch 400
leagues of coast line. General Calleja
added that he believed Marshal de Cam
pos would speedily pacify the island.
The poverty privilege in Cuba, he de-
clared, had forced many starving men to
