Several months ago while out in the

road bridge at Wolferton while a
freight train was crossing it. When
the picture was printed the princess
observed a slight curve in the bridge.
She went to the place from which she
had taken it, and carefully inspected
the structure. There was no such
curve in it perceptible.

The condition Of the winter wheat
crop, according to the system of per-
centages Oh which the government
makes its forecasts, is better than for
seven years, and is twelve per cent in
advance CT that Of last year. The
spring wheat crop is not beyond the
influence Of adverse weather condi-
lions; but the June estimate was
higher than for fifteen years, and elev-
en- per cent. in advance of June last
year. Later private reports were less
favorable than this.
Foreign crop prospects are not yet
sufficiently defined to afford a basis for
estimates. 1t is not probable that the
deficiency of last year and the year
preceding will be repeated; but the
worlds supplies have recently run so
low that, even with a good crop in
other wheat-producing countries, there
is likely to be an active demand for
the surplus from Jul wheat fields.

AMERICA DEMANDS PHILIPPINES.

Our Commissioners Will Take the Whole
Group, and no Unnecessary Debt.
A Paris dispatch of Monday night
gives the latest phase of the peace
negotiations as follows:
The American commissioners pre-
sented written expression OF the
purpose of the United States to take
the entire group of Philippine islands
and to assume such proportion of the
Philippine debt as has been spent for
the benefit of the islands or their in-
habitants, in public works, improve
ments and permanent betterments.
It was also set forth that the United
States would not assume any part OF
the Philippine debt which had been
incurred by Spain for the furtherance
of military or naval operations to quell
instructions of the natives.
The session was adjourned until
Friday in order to give the Spaniards
time to prepare reply.
After the conference was dissolved
the Spanish commissioners expressed
the opinion that the American de-
mands would create in Spain, As they
had upon her commissioners, an ex-
ceedingly grave impression. Were the
Spanish commissioners pushed to Il
final determination tonight, they would
reject the American demands, but the
changing tone of the Spanish press re-
Gently urges the consummation OF d
treaty of peace, however rigorous, the
argument being that, although the
Spaniards bow to the American de-
mands, the commissioners do not
acknowledge the justice or admit the
legality of them.
Tonight the Spanish commissioners
feel that the United States, to all in
tents and purposes, have not offered
any financial inducement to Spain to
cede by treaty any part of the Philip
pines.

sells will escort the Teresa most of the
way to Norfolk. The Cincinnati also
started with the Teresa, but she was

II is probable that with fair weather
the Teresa will reach Hampton Roads
about Tuesday of next week. There
she will be surveyed by the naval
board, which will report to the depart
ment the probable cost of putting her
into condition for naval service. The
advices so far received at the depart
ment indicate that this is going to be
an expensive undertaking, but never
theless it will be carried forward as
much from sentimental as practicable
considerations.

Death of Edward Moore.
Chester correspondence of the Col

Moore, son of Mr.. and Mrs. J. Leon
idas Moore, died this morning at 9
o'clock, aged II years. About three
months ago he was taken seriously i'll
with a violent cold, and for the past
seven weeks has been confined to his
bed. He was the third son of Mr.. and
Mrs. J. Leonidas Moore, formerly OF
York county, and came to Chester
about four years ago, where he was
employed by Messrs. S. M. Jones & Co.
up to the time of his illness. The re-
mains will be inferred at Bethesda
churchyard, York county, tomorrow
at noon.
More Testimony.
Mr.. w. c. Hutchison, mayor of
Rock Hill, is farmer on quite large
scale. He pursues principally the
Tenant and cropper system but runs
a five- horse farm with wage hands.
He was in Yorkville on Monday, and
in conversation with reporter the
subject of harvesting corn by the
whole stalk was sprung. 1t developed
that Mr.. Hutchison has been pursuing
this plan for several years and that be
is delighted with it. He has not yet
purchased a shredder for the reason
he was afraid it would not pay. The
first year he cut and shocked his corn
while in the roasting ear stage. Luck
lily he had good weather and the re-
suit was entirely satisfactory. The
next year he waited until a little
later-until after the fodder had thor
oughly ripened-an again he was de-
lighted with the results. There was
no damage on account of the method
of harvesting. This year he has bar
vested after the same plan, and has
no more damaged corn in proportion
than other people. Mr.. Hutchison
says his stock eats corn, fodder, shucks
and the stalks up to the butts. AS
the result of his experience he is done
with fodder pulling.
