CONDITION OF CROPS.
Weather of Past Week Causes Encour-
 aging Growth.

1 weather or Fast Weeh IduSeS LnCOuf-
 aging Growth.
 | The weekly crop bulletin of the Unit
 states that the weather of the past week
 will be of great value to the crops
 With slight exceptions. crops have 1 improved in all parts of the district The high temperature of the first part
 of the week, combined with the show
 CTS which followed during the latter
 part, furnished ideal condition for the
 rapid advancement of all vegetation,
 Corn, potatoes and vine crops have | been especially improved and bene- | fitted by the favorable weather. In a 1 few localities grass, which had been cut and not secured, was damaged. In others corn, grass grain and tobacco were blown down and lodged by the high winds, of local origin principally in parts of Connecticut. There are general complaints of bugs, beetles and other destructive insects, and in some cases these pests have wrought serious damage, but in the main, the injury has been to garden truck and to minor crops.
 The harvesting of hay has continued, generally under favorable circumstan ces, in the southern states, and the work is beginning in all sections of the northern part of the district With very slight exceptions, all reports are favorable to a large crop of hay, above In ero of nII f6 secured in fine condition. Pasturage is good, and in lowlands and localities favored with timely showers the grass is luxuriant. Preceding the recent | showers high lands with southern slopes were becoming brown from lack of water.
 Cereal crops of all kinds are reported in favorable condition Corn is inn proved and growing rapidly. In a few | of the most advanced plantings 1t has | begun tasselling The crop generally | is late, but very promising of a good | yield. Rye and wheat have headed [ and filled we'll and are now becoming ready for the harvest. Rust has in jured oats, but the damage is not general Barley is mostly in, good condition, with promise of an average crop. Buckwheat is being sown.
 The apple crop will fall much below the average, and especially the winter varieties In some orchards the fruit Is dropping badly, and in others it has been blown off by high winds Berries of all kinds promise good yields of ex- cellent quality; particularly, raspber- ries and blackberries. Plums, pears and grapes will be plentiful and in some sections peaches will be fair crop.
 Generally speaking potatoes are i'm proved and the outlook is promising to an average crop. The dry weather has affected garden vegetables, and in some sections insects have com pletely destroyed squash and cucumber vines. The latter situation is however, the exception rather than the rule. Like the more staple products, garden vegetables are much improved by the recent rains, and growers of the same Ire at present encouraged with the general outlook.

 EAST BRIDGEPORT PEOPLE.

Want City to Get Old Railroad Structure.
 The commencement of operations by
 the N r., N. H. & H. R. R. Co, at the
 eastern approach to the railroad bridge and the Aggression of public traffic
 from that direction to Congress street, will probably revive interest in the offer of the railroad company previous to the concluding agreement between the company and the city regarding the Improvements.
 It may be remembered that previous to the signing of the present agree ment and the discussion of the so called Bridgeport Problem" in it's in fancy, the officials of the railroad stated that in all probability the rail- road bridge would be given outright to the city. It would be cheaper to make a gift of the structure to the city than to tear it down. This would leave a direct route to the vicinity of the pres ent depot and when the new one was erected would lead direct to it's en- trance It was conceded by many that such condition would be acceptable in view of the fact that when the Housa tonic tracks were elevated the western approach to the Congress street bridge would be under a via duct. Since the signing of the present agreement, however, this promise on the part of the road has been lost sight of and as the present city officers had no hand in the discussion it is probable that the matter will be permitted to drop. The railroad is in no wise bound to make a deed of gift of the present bridge to the city but 1t might make a deed if the resquest was made in time An effort might be made to in- duce the railroad company to permit the present structure to stand for the of the people of East Post

 Spier-Second base.
 Callon--Third base.
 May-Short stop.
 Miller-Right field. Fitzpa field.
 Gallagher-Left field. The Gamble Desmonds led from the first and won with comparative ease. but the game was close at many points and errors, though costly, were not confined to one side. 4 The girls were wild with enthusiasm as the last inning was called and the winners were show cred with congratulations when the last man had been declared out
 The first contest Whetted the appe- tites of the crowd for more, and when the Malley and Read teams went out on the diamond there was big uproar and much horn blowing, The Malley girls in the grand stand waved a pro- fusion of small blue flags bearing a white "M," while the visiting Reads were by no means deserted, big crowd of Howe & Stetson and Gamble Des- mond girls gathering in a bunch and yelling encouragement at every play. The teams lined up as follows:
 EDWARD VALLEY COMPANY.
 Carberry-Pitch.
 Terrell--Catch
 Crown-First base
 McCaffery-S Second base. '.
 Foster-Thrd base.

 Fitzpatrick--Left field.
 Meeker-Right field.
 O'Brien-Center field~
 The game was rattling fight from the very start The Reads are strong combination, we'll up in team work and full of tricks which are unexpected and puzzling to their opponents. It was freely predicted that they would win, and they certainly got a good start, the score standing 5 to in their favor at the end of the fourth inning. At this point. however, the Malleys took a beautiful brace and, aided by an er- TOT or two made by the Bridgeport boys, they soon had things going their way In the fifth innig they tied the score and then gradually forged ahead. They were greatly encouraged by the cheering of their fair friends in the grand stand, and the game end- ed mid much excitement. The Bridge port boys regretted that they did not have a chance to play the ninth in- ming, but accepted their disappoint- ment good naturedly. The Reads recently beat the Gamble Desmond team by a score of 8 to z, and have a long list of victories to their credit. They are a gentlemanly set of fellows and their reappearance here will be welcomed

Order to Stockholders of Seventh Nf

Washington July 12.-Comptroller oi the Currency Dawes this afternoon or dered an assessment of 100 per cent. up- on the capital stock of the Seventh Ma tional bank of New York. The capital stock is $500000.
 The preliminary report of the receiver of the bank estimates that the assets, including the assessments on the share holders, will return 80 per cent. to the depositors. But as the valuation of the Marquand collateral is less than the fig ures set by the directors of the bank the recovery may be larger than this ap- proximate estimate.
