VERY SMALL CROP
Grain Inspector CiauSSen Talks
About the Prospects For
Wheat.
Red River Valley Will Not Like
Iy Produce More Than 30
to 40 Per Cent
Of the Crop of Last Year--SO
Wet the Seed Could Not
Re PM In

ST. PAUL, May 9,-State Grain In.
spector \. G. Clausen, on Icing asked
as to the present condition and pros.
poets of spring wheat seeding in the
Red River valley, said:
"At this date, during the last seven
wears with the exception Of 1892 and
1893. wheat seeding in the Red River
valley proper, was practically com.
pleted. Even i'll the two years men.
toned it was about half done at this
season Of the year. To-day in an area
of country which produced last year
between so, Coz, 900 and 80, OOO, 900 of
bushels Of hard spring wheat, not to
exceed 10 per cent Of the total blowing
area has been sown. Almost constant
rains in this territory for the past 80
days have precluded the possibility of
completing the wheat sowing even
under the most favorable circumstances
until about May 20.
Small Acreage of Fall Flowing.
The acreage plowed in the valley last
fall does not exceed 80 per cent Of that
of the previous season. The present
wet condition Of the soil renders it i'm.
possible to increase the wheat area by
spring blowing. The yield Of wheat
in this territory last season was about
"a bushels per acre, as against an aver.
age yield of 10 bushels in former sea.
sons. Taking these facts into consider.
alton, which any one conversant with
the situation would concede to be cor.
rect, it is plainly evident that the Red
River valley proper cannot produce this
season under the most favorable condi.
tions to exceed 80 or 40 per cent of the
wheat crop of last year. With the
very reasonable prospect of q reduced
yield per acre from the unprecedented
yield Of the last crop and the imminent
danger from frosts as before pointed
out the prospects are still farther re.
dated.
\ Even in Central and Southern Min.
nesota and other portions of the North.
west a repetition of the enormous yield
of the last season could hardly be ex.
pected. 1t, therefore, seems safe and
reasonable to conclude that the produc.
ton of hard spring wheat the present
season in Minnesota and the Dakotas
will not exceed to any extent the
natural demand of Northwestern mill.
ers, and that the quantity left for ex.
port will be comparatively limited"

European residents were panicstricken
and sought shelter on the high lands.
The Miatogatwa overflowed its banks at
midnight and the waters inundated
streets and fields, sweeping away 300
houses and drowning 200 persons at
Kobe. After IL hours work the broken
embankments were repaired by sand
bags. To make the fate of Kobe worse
a fire broke out and, famed by the

Well Authenticated Stories of Slaughter
Of Innocent People.


KEY WEST, Sept. 23-The SpaniardI
continue their barbarious deeds in Cuba
according TO well authenticated stories
received here.
As Colonel Aguillera, with 800 Span
ish troops, was proceeding TOWARD
Vegas, he was fired on from ambusl
and ten of his men killed.
After one volley the Cubans fed
pursued by Spaniards. In the chase the
Spaniards came across the Pablo Dia;
colony, composed of % persons, men
women and children. Colonel Aguil
lera asked if they had seen any rebel,
in the neighborhood. On receiving 6
negative answer, he ordered genera
slaughter Of everybody, including chill
dren from to 10 years old.
A young man begged to be killed, in
stead of his mother, but he Was hllet
with machete and bayonet in the pres
ence of the mother. Then they trans
fixed the mother upon a bayonet, after
which they disembowled her with Q
machete The little children were tor
tured with the end of the bayonet ant
then finished with the machete.
OF the 90 human beings present in
that colony 10 were butchered and siz
made their escape, hiding themselves
in the cane.
Besides truthful witnesses, the troop.
boasted of what they had done wher
they went back to Vegas, about two
miles from the colony.
Three days after the slaughter, 0
traveller passed by the spot of the mur.
der and was Mortified to see carrion
crows devouring the bodies. None haC
been buried.
Colonel Aguillera started with his
troops from NuevSPaz toward the
sugar estate Cuerv0. Near q place
called Cuzch, he saw house, went tc
it and found only three children in It.
He asked where the parents were, they
answered that they had gone after some
fuel to prepare their breakfast and
would soon return. The colonel ordered
the three childTen-10 to Ia years old
to be locked up in the house, and after
this was done. he ordered the troops ts
set fire to the horse.
The troops, Mortified, disobeyed al
first, but under the threats of Aguillera
they acted and the house was burnt
down with the children in it, On their
return to Nueva.Paz, the troops tolC
the people what had been done. This
information is from Spanish source.
After that house was burned, Aguil
lera went on and met q man 20 years
old, carrying vegetables, who was ac.
companied by two colored men. He
was asked where he was going; he an
swered that he was taking the vege
tables home to Nueva-Paz. The colo
mel ordered them to be killed with the
machete. The body of the old mar
was thrown into well nearby, where
he was found two days afterward
traced by his hat found near the we'll
The other bodies were chopped to pieces
and thrown into cave, where they
were found All this was related by 8
