latter was an underestimate. Both OF
these European crop computers agree
in the statement that Great Britain
and France will have a much smaller
yield of wheat than in 1894; and the in
ference is fair that the import require
ments of these countries will be mater
tally increased.
Taken in connection with an ac-
knowledged decrease in the production
of exporting countries like India, Ar
gentina and Australia, the probability
Of a larger demand from France and
England would seem to favor an ex-
pansion of the export trade of the
United States; but the hOpefulness Of
the situation is modified by the report
ed increase Of 100000 bushels in the
Russian crop. However. it would no.
be safe to bank heavily on any crop
data concerning wheat that are yet
available.

As will be seen by the above. the Sis
tersville field leads in the number of
wells drilled and dry holes. while the
production has not increased as much
as the Warrington field. Outside OF the
Warrington and Sistersville fields,
there was very little to attract atten-
ton during the month. The total num-
Der of wells drilled in the State during
the month was 100 OF this number
there were 81 dry holes and SO produc
ing wells, with a production of 5,999
barrels day, or an average of about 81
barrels day for each we'll.
There was considerable new work un-
der way in the different fields during
the last week of the month, but on ac-
count of the bad luck of the operators
in getting so many dry holes, quite
number of the wells have been shut
down since The following table gives

is pointed out that if other estimates
from the same sources be no nearer
the facts than these the world grain
operators had better not place reliance
on them. The Hungarian estimates of
the American wheat crop for 1894 was
4OS. OOO.0 900 bushels; and in making
comparisons this season the Budapes-

figures. disregarding the fact thar the

CLEVELAND woRsHIPPERs.'


The esteemed Independent Boston
Herald, in answer to the chatter which
designates that portion of the public
press that upholds the action of Grover
Cleveland in the Presidency as Cleve-
land worshippers, which, it believes,

press" it says, Gin giving President
Cleveland credit for craftsmanship
speaks the sentiment of the best repre-
sentative Americans. Aside from

imous in his favor II is simply i'm
possible to find one man of intelligence,
not influenced by party feelings, who
does not respect and admire him, and
pay warm tribute to his services TO the
country. 1t is to the credit of many
Republicans that they join in this JUS
tice to a man not of their party. Mr..
Clevelands worst foes are the cheaper
politicians of the country, and he finds
not a few of them in his own party.
Aside from this class, his defamers are

George Washington himself if he had

BANKRUPT SPAIN.

On the 18th of the present month
Spain has promised to pay the Mora
claim OF $1,5OO00O, which she an
nounces will be forthcoming in Spanish
gold dollars. In the present state Of
SPANS finances it void be interesting
TO know where this sum is to come
from. According TO the Madrid
Gazette, which has recently published
statistical results of the financial year
ended June 80, 1895, Spain is on the
verge of bankruptcy, if not altogether
in that unhappy condition. The reve-
nue. actually collected during the twelve
months ended with that date was S14O,-
500. 795-a falling of Of s1.06O,O2O COM
pared with the figures of the financial
year 1S93-1S94 On the other hand, the
expenditures amounted to S150,472 1865.
In order to cover the deficiencies Of
revenue during the past fiscal year the
Bank Of Spain advanced the Minister
Of Finance several large sums; but
when the time for settlement came the
treasury could not meet its obligations
by over SS,25O,OOO For this the bank
received treasury bonds in its favor,
bearing interest at the rate of Az per
cent.
But this is by no means the worst
of it. The Minister of Finance expects
that the budget for the present fiscal
year will show a far larger deficit ow-
ing to the continued decrease in reve-
nue.. as we'll as to the immense expendi-
ture incurred through the Cuban revolt.
This latter has already cost Spain
vast sum. SPANS floating debt, it is
said, has assumed such extravagant
proportions that the government will
before long be compelled to consolidate
it. Before the Cuban trouble arose
this debt was upward S92 500, OOO-a
decidedly formidable sum for a coun-
try in the distressing condition in
which Spain now finds herself, with
her revenues diminishing on all sides
and her expenditures increasing in in
verse proportion.
Spain has been trying the Bourses
and fnanciers of Europe for another
loan; but she has not yet succeeded,
nor does there. indeed. seem to be

cess. She is certainly in a bad fnan-
cial plight. Her government in prom

business were damaged and asks for 3d.

state where they can live in that way.
We ask them sometimes how they can
