THE YEARS WHEAT CROP.
Three General Esfimstes that Vary
but Little, show Increase over
Last Years Crop.

Washington, Oct. 1.-THE depart
ment of agriculture announces that
the three most important estimates
of the worlds wheat crop of 1901 SO
far made agree that the crop is larger
than that of either of the two pre-
ceeding years. The estimates follow:
Hungarian ministry of agriculture,
2,671 1860, 600 bushels of 60 pounds;
Beerbohm's corn list, Of London, q
I'll ,600, 900 bushels of so pounds, and
Bulletin des Halles, of Paris, $780,
$4,000 Winchester bushels Our de-
partment withholds its opinion as TO
the degree in which the worlds crop
has been approximated in any of
these estimates until considerably
larger number of official returns is
available.
The official Hungarian estimates
say the crop exceeds last years by
20g. .ss1 900 bushels of 90 pounds, or
by 2f2, 10000 Winchester bushels.
According to Beerbohm the excess
over last years crop is 100000, 900
bushels of 60 pounds, and according
to the Bulletin des HaIles, the excess
is 1876, ~, 900 Winchester bushels. The
principal increase is credited tc the
United States, Canada and India,
though various countries are credit
ed with larger crops than they had
| in 1900.

DUKE AND DUCHESS OF YORK.
The Royal Visitors Give Their Loyal
Subjects the slip md Pay
Visit To Niagara Falls.

Niagara-on-the-L Lake, Ont, Oct H.
The duke and duchess OF York passed
a quiet Sunday at the Queens Royal
hotel yesterday. Some disappoint-
ment was caused among the citizens
here who understood that their royal
highnesses would attend divine sery-
Ice. Instead of this, however, the
church service held at their hotel,
over which Rev. Canon Dalton, chap
lain with the royal suite, presided.
After this service was concluded the
duke and duchess, accompanied by
several members of the royal suite
were driven to the pier, where they
went aboard the steamer Corona
and proceeded 10 Queenstown. At
this point the royal party boarded a
special electric ear of the Niagara
Falls Park & River railway, hand
somely fitted up, and they were taken
up past the whirlpool rapids to Mag
ara Falls. The duke wore black
derby hat and gray tweed suit, and
seemed keenly interested In the
splendid scenery along the line of
route. The reception was very quiet
and there was no cheering. A second
car, containing several members of
the suite, followed closely after the
royal car.
Luncheon was partaken of At the
Ioretto convent. After luncheon the
party returned TO the Queens Royal
hotel, where dinner was served. A
quiet evening at the hotel concluded
the day. The royal train leaves Nj
