ss A conservative statement OF
pn,Nia, at home and abroad is as fol-
.rs Importing countries require
,oO oOO 600 bushels more than last
In The only countries with exporta-
ID surplus are America and Russia.
qhe latter, according to latest reports,
IN have less than usual for export.
,merica must therefore reap the benefit
A the increased export demand. For
ouately, we have excellent crop pros
scs, promising at present the second
,roest wheat crop ever produced in
his country. In this connection it
Inst be borne in mind that our reserves
.re practically exhausted, and if they
sre to be replenished from the coming
Icrop our exportable surplus will MOI
sbceed that of last year by over 20, OO0,-
400 bushels. Importers are waking up
d the situation, and they have been
hrge and persistent buyers of wheat in
bur markets during the week. The re-
hitting advance, while large and rapid,
il more than fully warranted, and the
pndency of the market is to advance
ail further.
Exports for the week were somewhat
higher than the previous one, wheat
bid -four equalling 1878, 900 bushels,
While the worlds shipments were re-
ported at about 10000 900 bushels. On
ocean passage decreased $50, 900 BUSH
sls and our visible supply showed an
Increase of 70S,0 900 bushels, and now
bals Is, 032, 900 bushels, against A.
|l72OO0 bushels a year ago this time.
There were alarming reports of dam
sge to the Russians greatesJ food and
eereal, the rye crop. An encouraging
bature is the exceedingly light re-
septs of new wheat, the movement
ihus far being very limited and not
amounting to more than one-third of
That of year ago. This indicates that
1bere is very heavy interior demand
fOr new wheat, or else that the new
prop is being held back in anticipation
of higher prices. Gables have advanced
daily and are very strong, bringing
buying orders for both English and
French accounts, mostly future delivery.

a resident of Allentown, Pa. is the COM

a resident of Allentown, Pa. is the COM
plainant, and the defendants are the
Manzana irrigation district, the board of
directors of the Manzana colony, the
board of supervisors of Los Angeles
county and a number of bondholders of
said district
Allegation is made in the complaint
that the irrigation district was organ
lied under the Wright act, and it claims
also that there We're technical irregulari-
ties in the formation of the district.
1t is further alleged that Immediately
after the issuance, in May, 1898, of $4,000
worth of bonds, a contract was made
with George l.. Arnold, whereby he re-
ceived $1,000 worth of bonds as consid-
GRAFTON for conveying to them Lake
Katrina, the head of the water supply.
Another contract was made, according
to the complaint. with j. H. Spires,
George l.. Arnold, c. F. Edison and Leon
F. Moss, for water rights and land in
Kings canyon, in exchange for $4,000
worth of bonds, the rest of the bonds
being placed, says the complaint, in
borrowing money for labor and mate
rials for establishing the water system.
Claims are made of irregularities in
the election of the board of directors
who issued the bonds; that the bonds
were never advertised for sale, nor bids
called for; also that the bondholders
were aware of these irregularities.
Trexler claims that his own property
was sold for taxes and bought in by
the Manzana irrigation district; that
the tax sale clouds his title, and that
the burden on the property holders, HIM
self and others, is doubled by the pres
ence in the district of 1140 acres of pub
lie lands that share the irrigation facili-
ties.
The supervisors of Los Angeles county
are, so it is alleged, now preparing an
assessment roll for the district, and
threaten to lay tax on all lands in the
district to meet the interest on out
standing bonds.
Orator therefore prays that the Wright
act and all of it's supplemental and
amendatory acts be declared void, as
unconstitutional, as violating the four
teenth constitutional amendment, which
prohibits states from depriving persons
of property without due process of law;
that the bonds of the Manzana district
be nullified; that the district be dis
solved; as property owner in said dis
trict he asks that the supervisors be
cited to show cause why they should not
be restrained from making proposed
tax levy on lands of the district, and
that a court adjust the claims of all
the water rights and the lands involved

The preliminary examination of r. j
]. Roche in San Pedro October 6, was
held yesterday afternoon before Justice
H. c. Downing of that place, Deputy
District Attorney Williams appearing
day for the defense.
1t will be remembered that Roche was
shot by Pat Savage, tailor of San Pc
dro, who accused the murdered man of
robbing him of a sum of money. From
some facts alleged to have developed
since the preliminary hearing of Savage,
Golden was arrested in San Francisco
for conspiracy in the crime.
The witnesses examined yesterday
were DR.. Gwatling, Duncan Baxter,
Henry Grimshaw, city marshal; D. A.
Moore, real estate dealer; Walter V.
Haidt and L. j. Roach, father of the
murdered boy.
The testimony given was a repetition
of that at the examination of Savage,
and the most rigid questioning of the
prosecution failed to bring out anything
connecting the defendant with the
crime. Savage had spoken to one of the
witnesses of Golden being his friend
but nothing was developed on the ex-
animation to show that defendant was
near the scene of the shooting.
At the conclusion of the testimony
Attorney Williams announced that it
had been agreed by the people and the
defendant that the case should be con-
tinued until Wednesday, Jan. 5, 1885,
for further examination and the de-
fendant be admitted to bail in the sum
of $500.
The prisoner was remanded to the
custody of the sheriff and was brought
to Los Angeles, where he expects to fur
nish bond for his appearance at the
time stated. The object of the prosecu-
tion was to keep Golden in this part of
the state as a witness in the Savage
trial.

for new trial in the case of Riverside
county VS.. San Bernardino county. The
courts ruling was entirely formal. No
opinion was filed nor findings made. as
the trial was held before Judge Aliens
predecessor, Judge Mckinley. The de-
nial of the motion, Judge Allen said
afterward, was not intended as a mex
preston of his personal view, one way
or the other. but only to pave the way
for an appeal. which will be taken soon.
The litigation arose out of the creation
OF Riverside county from one end of
San Bernardino county, and the subse-
quent attempt to come to an adjust
ment of claims made by the new county
against San Bernardino county.
