Not a Bumper Crop.

Further statistics from the wheat
feds OF th, state go to show that this
years. cop, while larger than last
years ai.ta fair average crop, is not
t,e bumps: crop that has been pro-
claimed 50 the world. Commissioner
of Agriculture Thomas states that he
is inclined to reduce his estimate cf
the total crop of the state from fifty to
forty-fve million bushels of wheat.
In the Office of the commissioner have
just been compiled figures giving tie
total wheat yield last year as reported.
by the farmers to the assessors this
spring. These figures show the total
yield last year was 35, 758 ,346 acres.
With an increase pf only3 300 600 acres
of wheat this year. MI. Thomas does
not believe that the crop this year
will exceed that of last year by more
than eight or nine million bushels.
The total dax acreage this year has
also been compiled by the commits
sioner and shows 800 300 acres of fax
in the state. Last yearsthe acreage
WAS 526l,, 90 and the yield l,956,2l5
bushels. The yield will be proportion
ataly larger this year as the average
last season was very low.

Chicago, Feb. 23.-Wheat was heavy all
day and at the close showed declines of
s4c. in the May option and 11sc. in July.
The market was affected principally by
the decline in the English markets. The
disposition among wheat traders to leave
that market for the coarser grain pits
caused a decided decrease in the volume
of wheat trading. Corn was heavy and
declined Ac. Oats-were firm after early
weakness and closed a shade higher. Pro-
visions were irregular pork declining

much. The cash quotations were as fol-

riot act to several men, men who had
just told me the McAdoo men had
agreed to remain on strike until their
demands were granted. Between Sept.
6 and 10 we tried several times to get
the breaker started, but each time the
men who wanted to work were driven
back by the strikers and threatened
with DEATH"
The cross-examination did not break
down the testimony at all.
THREATENED WITH DEATH.
W. II. Snyder, master mechanic and
assistant superintendent of the Silver
Brook Coal company, said that q few
days before the Lattimer shooting the
McAdoo strikers marched there and
told them to stop hosting. They did
80 and then the strikers pulled out the
fires, chased out the firemen and said
If there was any more work, every
body would be killed and the breaker
torn down. They then smashed every
window In the blacksmith shop. A few
days before, while driving, a striker
shot at him. Snyder returned the fire
and there was an exchange of shots,
neither was hit and the striker ran
away.
This closed the testimony of the day.

THE MARKETS.
Wall street Reviow.

New York, Feb. 23.-Today's further de-
cline In stocks undoubtedly reflected a
condition OF real apprehension in the
minds of holders of securities as to the
developments in the Cuban question.
Commission house orders to sell were in
large volumes even at the opening and
these soon swept away the advances over
Mondays level which had been elabor-
ately arranged by the use of the cable to
establish higher range of prices in Lon
don over the holiday. There was profess
sional buying here at the opening de-
signed to the same end but not even the
first quotations were UP to the London
parity. Gains were speedily wiped out
by the slump which followed the aban-
donment of the professional attempt to
sustain prices. The uncovering of mar
gins and selling orders to stop losses
brought flood of stocks on the market.

Pantry Thieving.
THE GUILTY PARTIES YET AT LARGE,

THE GUILTY PARTIES YET AT LARGE.
Newtown Street and vicinity has been
enjoying an epidemic of pantry thievinR.
1t began last week Friday night when
the houses of j. Fl. Costello and Patrick
Cannon were visited. At the former
place they took bread and other edibles,
and at Mr. GannOn's they helped them
selves to eatables and carried off eggs,
two bottles of Scotch ale and a bottle of
whiskey. The latter was for an invalid
member of his family and was a gift.
On Tuesday night, presumably the
same parties, attempted to enter the
houses OF George W. Stuart, Mrs John
Judson, Mrs Sarah c. Judson, Arthur j.
Smith, Mrs S. C. Glover and George P.
Sanford. At Mr. Stuart's they took some
meat from the pantry and at MIR San
lords they drank milk and got some pro.
visions, but were APPARENTLY frightened
away, PROBABLY by the dog. At the 9th
er houses they could not get in or were
