REPORTS to the state department
from India and Russia show first.
that in India the final estimate of
the wheat crop for the current year
is 6,690,000 tons, or l,750,000 | tons
more than in the previous year
The estimated area of the acreage
under wheat for the year is %
100000 acres, being about 5000.
600 acres more than the previous
year, and about 100000 acres
less than the general average for
the preceding ten years There
are two wheat growing seasons in

crop, is sowed in June, OF Just be

gets its start from the moisture
held in the soil from the monsoon,
and is nourished either by irriga-
ton or by winter rains. From
Russia the report shows that there
are good reasons to believe that
the wheat harvest of 1901 will be
better than that of 1900. The
spring has been favorable. The
heavy rains during May, which
were gen ,ral in all parts of the
empire, are believed to have been
sufficient to secure a regular
growth of the crop. As a whole,
the spring wheat is more promis-
ing than the winter crop, which
has suffered heavily in some pro-
vinces from the absence of snow
during the winter; in others, from
drought, while the greater part in
the Vistula region was killed by
frost.

FOUR BRIGANDS ARE CAUGHT
Bulgarian Government Puts Miss
Stone in Peril.
HARD TO PAY THE RANSOM,
Tho sincerity of the Police In Making
the Arrests II Doubted Both Women
Together aud in Good ucaith--Dieltin-
son's Position.

Sofia. Nov. 1.-Two Dulgarians
were arrested In the Turkish village
OF Djuma. near the border Two 9th
crs were arrested at Dubnitza. on the
Bulgarian side The four men are
charged with being implicated In the
abduction OF Miss Stone. The evil
dence OF their completely has not. how
ever. been made public. and the sin
certify OF the police In making the ar
rests Is doubted. IL Is believed that
the action OF the government Is In
tended 10 intimidate the brigands and
prevent them from accepting payment
OF the Ransom on Bulgarian territory.
The government is determined 10
evade all responsibility and protect the
Macedonian revolutionlsts. The cap
ture. according TO the Bulgarian gov
eminent. took place on Turkish ter
ritory. and therefore the release must
also be made there. As United states
Consul General Dickinson insists on
the release OF Miss Stone before pay
mcnt OF the ransom Is made, nego-
tiations will probably be prolonged.
Further assurance was received here
TO the effect that both women are to-
gother and In good health.

uidinE Along Frontier

Sofia. Nov. 12.-lnformation has
been received here from Doubnitza
that the band OF brigands holding
cartlye Miss Ellen NJ. stone. the Amer
lean missionary. called about fort
night ago at tho village OF Smetchevo
and subsequently proceeded 10 the
monastery OF Rio. but the movements
OF the troops compelled the brigands
20 fee toward the frontier. where they
arc now In hiding. II Is also asserted
that the brigands have recently been
treating Miss Stone with more severity
in order 10 exercise pressure and 10
compel a more ready acceptance OF
their conditions. Consul General Dick
lnson Is inflexible. He insists that
the surrender OF Miss Stone must
precede or be simultaneous with the
payment OF the ransom. His attitude
Is justified by the known determine
ton OF some members OF the band, par
ticularly the captain. Yanne Sandan-
sky. TO Kill Miss Stone and her COM
panion as soon as the ransom is re-
ceivcd owing 20 the fact that the
captivcs have now acquired informa-
ton concerning the secret committees.

NO MONEY FOR THE WIDOWS.
Legislature Numbered In Making It's
100000 ApprOpriatfon-Must
WHIT Until This Fall.

Atlanta, March 1.-THE Legislature at
its last session seems to have made
quite a blunder in appropriating 100000
for the payment of pensions of $50 each
10 the INDECENT Confederate widows OF
Georgia without providing the money for
that purpose.
Il now develops that there is no funo
from which this money can be taken
and, In fact. that there will be no money
on hand with which to pay these pensions
before next December.
The Legislature failed to make any
special levy for the purpose, but calcu-
lated that the increase in general taxes
would be sufficient to provide for these
pensions This may be true, but these
taxes will not be collected before De
cember next, hence the widows must do
without their money for fully nine
months longer than the Legislature con-
teu1Dlsted.
