LINER REPORTED LOST.

Some Large Boat Struck an iceberg IL
the Straits of Belle Isle.
ST. joins. n. F., Aug. 6. The mai
steamer Virginia Lake arrived at Til,
Cove on West Bay, $50 miles from here
at daylight, bringing certain corrobor'
alton of the reported loss of an ocean
liner in the straits Of Belle Isle. 4
fisherman at Noddy bay reported tina,
he saw a steamer collide with an ice
berg and sink soon after. The report
is generally believed, but nothing reli
able is obtaipable.
The fisherman said that the steamer
looked like a passenger ship, and he
could see the people trying to launch
boats, but she sank before they could
do anything.
The strait of Belle Isle lies between
Newfoundland and Labrador, and i:
the most northern of two channel:
which connect the Gulf of St. Law
enc with the Atlantic ocean,. It is i:
miles wide. and navigation in it is re
patsd to be unsafe. This is not the
route taken by passenger steamers
usually. Austin Baldwin & Co., the
New York agents of the Allan Line q
steamers, said that they were sure i,
was not one of their steamers which
was lost. While they did not positively
know the route taken by their steam
ers, it is known they never went by tn,
straits of Belle Isle. The only othe,
Montreal line Of steamers they knew
Of was the Donaldson line. They be
lieved that passenger liners never wen
by that route, and that it could no
have been a passenger liner, as re
ported.

the day before asking for a 5000 per
mile assessment, but which the republi.
can members had scotfed at. The petit
tons came from fifteen different counties
Of the state. The record of the session
then continues.
After dinner the governor introduced
a resolution reciting that the Milwaukee
company had voluntarily increased it's
valuation in its 1898 report to the state
auditor by more than 100000, that it
enjoyed valuable franchises in the state
from which the state could receive no
compensation except through reduced
rates or increased teXes, that the road
Iefused to put the schedule OF rates into
operation asked by the commissioners.
that they had appealed from the valua-
ton placed upon their property by Judge
Garland. aud had gone TO the United
States supreme court on their old con-
tention that their property was worth
ST. 900 per mile and he therefore moved
that the valuation on which they were
assessed a year ago be added to the ST.
100000 addition which they reported this
year and which they have been withhold
ing TO deceive the board heretofore.
This would nave made their assess
ment $500 per mile in round numbers.
This was voted down, likewise Mayhew's
motion to assess $4,000 per mile.
Mayhem then moved a 10 per cent
raise and a 5 per cent raise These were
defeated, the governor and Mayhem vot.
ing yes. Finally he proposed a l per
cent raise. This carried, being voted for
by the governor, Mayhem, Grlgsby and
Philips; Roddle, Crane and Lockhart
voting no.
4. raise Of 500 per mile was also made
on the Northwestern and the raise on the
two roads amounts to about $4,000.
Great surprise was plainly evident on
the faces Of the road men and other re.
publican members OF the board when
Phillips broke away and voted for the
800 per mile increase, but it was getting
too hot and he laid down his hand.
The governor voted for the resolutions
increasing the valuations but on the
final vote by divisions voted no. Caus-
Ing the record 10 show tina. be voted 10
the negative because he did not consider
the raise sufficient. However he is very
happy to think that rs the result Of the
fight commenced a year ago the people
are going to get ever the small benefit
achieved TO. day 10 the 500 per mile in

The crop editor Of the Minneapolis
journal, H. Y. Jones has made his tour OF
the western portion Of this state and
says:
The James river valley north of
Woousocket has the same old story to
tell on wheat yield. There are here and
there touches Of generosity in yield, but
from Woorsocket north to the state
boundary, including Sanborn, Jerauld,
Sphinx. Bsadle, Brown, Mcpherson and
the other adjoining counties, the usual
acreage of SIX bushels per acre has been
realized.
DAY and Marshall counties have done
better than last year, and but for their
help the average in the section named
would probably fall far below six
bushels.
Mcpherson county has suffered in an
unusual way this year, an average yield
OF " bushels being the claim for that
county, for a large acreage will not be
cut. Disaster came earlyl in the sea-
SOD together with unfavorable weather
conditions. Brown county has the usual
range Of yield from acreage abandoned to
twenty-five bushels. Wheat in a large
part of the counties named Is barely
high enough for the header to catch in
cutting. The above general condition
in the counties named is admitted to be
the fact by Postmaster Jumper. who re-
ceives special reports on these counties"
