r. @. w. ulntnh Survey Route.

Washington, Oct. 5-The Rio Grande
Western railroad has applied to the
secretary of the interior for permits
sion to survey a route across the Uin-
tab Indian reservation. Accompany
ing the application was a statement
from Indian Agent Beck, to the effect
that he had consulted the Indians and
that they offered no objection to the
survey.
Secretary Bliss referred the applica-
ton TO the commissioner of Indian af-
fairs and that officer has returned it
with his approval. 1t is regarded as
altogether probable that the secretary
will grant the request of the company,
1T should be understood" said AS
sistant Commissioner OF Indian Affairs
Smith, ''that the Rio Grande Western
company has not asked permission to
build a road. The application is for
the privilege of surveying TO ascertain
the feasibility of line through the
reservation. Neither Agent Beck nor

vorable recommendations have passed

Fire came upon their house in the

were found the next morning. There
were many narrow escapes, and num-
Der of families are homeless and utter

fire ran upon the Canadian Pacific plat

Years Wheat Crop.

Chicago, Oct 4.-The Orange-Judd
Farmer, in its final estimate of the
years crop, says that figures based on
actual threshing returns indicate a
total yield of $50, 900, 900 bushels, OF
which 373, 900, 900 is winter and 215,-
100000 bushels spring wheat. With
the exception of Illinois and Missouri
the winter wheat yield represents the
full capacity of the sort. The spring
wheat yield in Minnesota and the Da-
kotas has proved a disappointment,
the aggregate being only 1919, 900, 600
bushels. The shortage there is in a
measure counterbalancedb by the good
yield in Nebraska, Oregon and Wash
ington.
The report says the corn crop is ex-
ceedingly disappointing, with an out
side estimate of 129, 100000 bushels.
Drought during the past two months
reduced the average condition from
1913, a month ago, to 7S.9 on October 1.
An average oats yield of 2s.7 bushels
per acre suggests a crop of 914, 10000
bushels, 100, 900, 600 bushels more than
last year.

numerous other mines that are as
promising as the American.
