Washington, May 21.-The weather bu-
reaus weekly summary of the crop con-
ditions is as follows:
Although frosts occurred In the lake
region. upper Ohio valley and northern
portion of the Middle Atlantic states on
ly slight damage resulted and as a whole
the temperature conditions throughout
country were very favorable. Drought
has been largely relieved In the Southern
states, but continues in Western and
Southern Texas, Southern Louisiana and
portions of Alabama and Florida.
In the states of the lower Missouri and
upper Mississippi and Ohio valleys corn
planting has progressed rapidly and is
nearing completion in these districts. In
the Southern States the crop has been
materially improved by recent rains.
Oats have been damagd by dry weather
in the Central valleys and in the South
ern states the conditions of the crop Is
not promising, although 1t Is materially
improved in Georgia.
An Improvement In the condition of cot
ton is reported from the Carolinas, Geor-
gia, Florida, Alabama and portions of
Texas. The stands are as yet generally
poor but much of the replanted is not
up.
Transplanting of tobacco has begun In
Maryland and Virginia and will begin

plants are nearly ready to set. In South

POOR PEOPLE SUFFER.
Effect of the Export Tax on Coal In
London.

New York, May N.-Eamilton Smith,
president and General manager OF the
Stoke-on-T Trent Colliery Company Limited,
of Manchester, England, has arrived here
on his way to Pittsburg on business.
Speaking of the recently imposed export
tax of a shilling ton on British coal. he
said:
1.-THE tax is a retrogressive action, and
one which will in a short time dislocate
trade and act as detriment on CONNER
clal activity. The British government is
under the impression that the foreign
consumer will pay. That, however, is al
ready proving to be commercial fallacy.
The foreign consumer is not going to pay
such a tax for his coal. He buys his coal
in the cheapest market The Americans,
too. since the immense developments OF
their coal trade, previous to any ques-
ton of this export tax on the British
product, were making a very bold bid
to Dust us from the markets, and now the
imposition of this tax ~ the golden OPP

for.
