These resolutions were being secretly Is

yield of Gold Must BE Immense to Affect
It's Price. sE,
WASHINGTON, July 20.-Quite mum
Der of statesmen were asked what
would be the effect of the Alaskan gold
discoveries on the silver question. Most
of them were inclined to the belief that
the possible production of the new gold
country had been greatly exaggerated
for the benefit of the transportation
companies and local supply companies.
Senator Allison, when asked about the
situation, said:
'tIf the product Of gold in Alaska is
really enormous, it would, Of course,
tend to approximate the value of gold
and silver, but the yield would have to
be unprecedented to have much effect,
for our supply Of gold isvery large. you

Notwithstanding VARIOUS Drrwbacks It

ST. PAUL, July 10. Throughout the
Northwest the weather has been all
that was desired. In Minnesota the ex-
cessive rains Of 10 days ago have been
followed by clear, warm meather, with
only occasional local showers that did
no damage, and, except to wheat lying
on low land which is still suffering
from an excess Of moisture, were favor.
able to growth. In the eastern half Of
South Dakota, on the other hand, where
hot winds threatened to do damage,
heavy rains and cooler weather in
spired hopes OF q good crop. Even
North Dakota, the reports from which
were not very bright, records change
for the better. Damage by hail in the
last named state during the previous
week is estimated at 1OO,0 600 acres,
with Is, 600 acres totally destroyed. It
{ is doubtful if the damage in Min
nesota to the wheat acreage ex-
sceeded the North Dakota fig
8ures. In North Dakota the greatest
damage was wrought in Foster, Barnes,
Cass and Pembina counties, the latter
county losing at least 10000 acres.
In Blue Earth chinch bugs are re-
ported numerous and busy, but are con-
fined to the section bordering on the
Blue Earth river, and are just at pres
emit paying nearly all their attention to
barley. The cool weather that has gem
orally prevailed has given strength to
the plants to resist ordinary storms, and
the complaints Of rust are only scatter
ing. Little damage from this source is
looked for. The weevil is reported in
Brown county, S. D.
Making Up Lost Time.
From all over Minnesota come re-
ports Of wheat heading splendidly.
Even in the Red river valley, where 50
late a crop was expected that there were
fears Of damage by early frosts, matur.
ing has gone on SO rapidly that it is ex-
pected that harvest will commence as
early as in 1895.
The hot moist weather of week ago
brought on rust in many sections in
Iowa, but the cooler spell that followed
has checked it's progress. Spring wheat
will not yield heavily. ..5.+.,-..
In Wisconsin wheat conditions are re.
ported favorable.
In Montana, continued favorable
weather throughout the Gallatin and
Bitter Root valleys makes the prospect
of heavy crop excellent. In Idaho,
Washington and Oregon conditions are
also favorable. - - 3ps
In Manitoba, a hack of moisture is
complained of, too little rain having
fallen. No definite complaint of dam.
age has been made vet.
