 12,3 Last Year.

Washington, Jan. 10.-The statistician of the Department of Agriculture esti- mates the average yield per acre of wheat in the United States in 1901 at 14.S bushels as compared with 12.3 bushels in 1900, 12.3 bushels in 1898, 15.3 bushels in 1898, and 13.3 bushels the mean of the averages of the last ten years.
 The newly-seeded area of winter wheat is provisionally estimated at 32.O0O, 900 acres, an increase of 5.6 per cent upon the area estimated to have been sown in the fall of 1900

 The department has no reports as to the condition of winter wheat later than December 1. At that date it was S6.7 per cent of the normal, as compared with 97.1 in 1900 97.1 in 1899, and 92.6 in 1898.
 The department will not issue any fur ther estimate of the total production of any product of the soil. nor of the num- Der of farm animals until 1t has made such adjustments of it's estimates for the last two years as may seem to be requir- ed by the reports of the census, based on an actual farm to farm visitation, now in course of publication.

CABLE ACROSS PACIFIC.
House Committee Considers the
 Subject.

Washington, Jan. 1o.-The House Com mittee on Commerce today took up the subject of d Pacific cable. The main question is whether the cable shall be constructed by the government or by private parties. The hearing today was devoted to an explanation by George w. Ward. Vice-President of the Commercial Pacific Cable Company of the plans of that organization. He stated that con- tracts had been made for the manufac- ture and laying of q cable to Honolulu by November 1 next, and the company intended to extend the cable to Manila within two years from next November. The manufacture of the cable was now proceeding. he stated. at the rate of 24O miles per month. and this rate would be increased to 6So miles per month. He gave the cost of the project as between $i0, ,O0o, 900 and $12,000,000 The cross-ques- tioning by Chairman Hepburn and Messrs. Corliss and Mann tended to de- velop the question whether or not the company, by having an exclusive field, would maintain high rates. MT. Ward gave the expected rate to Manila at M and Honolulu & cents to 50 cents a word. The hearing will continue tomorrow.

REPRESENTATIVE AT VATICAN.
satolli's Party Favoring This Idea
 Increasing in Numbers.

New York, Jan 10.-Although prelates well acquainted with American fnstitu- tions always have declared to be absurd the idea of having an American repre- sentative at the Vatican and as against the spirit of the American Constitution, says the Rome correspondent of The Tri- bune. the party favorable to this project, headed by Cardinal Satolli, is increasing in numbers. It Is now insisting, that the Vatican take advantage of the compli- cated Philippine question to have Wash agent to treat with the Vatican, which should give it's pledge to maintain se- crecy on occasions for avoiding acknowl- edging him officially. as was done on former occasions for the defining of special questions: otherwise. the agent would be repudiatcd at Washington.

 He has very little faith in the professed friendship of the Filipinos. He believes their apparent acceptance of the new of affairs is dictated largely by and that at heart they have very little sympathy with the Americans. Strict military rule will be necessary for some time to come. he thinks.

TARIFF BILL IN DANGER.
It May Have to Be Abandoned b.
 the German Government.

Cue 0eTmah GuVoihASAr
 Berlin, Jan. 1e.--The impression is gathering force among the supporters of the tariff bill in the Reichstag and is amounting to almost Q certainty, that the bill cannot be passed in its present form. even if the minimum grain duties be stricken out, and that the Government may have to drop the measure altogether, although this. of course. would be done only after the long sequestration of the bill with the committee, where 1t now rests.
 The opposition to the tarin bill Is talk ing the form of a proposal that a commits sion shall be appointed to investigate German agriculture to determine wheth- CT distress really exists and whether it is to be found among the great land owners or the peasants. The proposal to appoint an investigating committee is supported by the bureau for the prepara- ton of commercial treaties, many com- mercial bodies and nono-plitical societies.

mand of the Squadron.
 Washington. Jan. 10.-It. is probable that Admiral Higginson. with his flagship Kearsarge and other vessels of the North Atlantic squadron. will shortly repair to Venezuelan waters, making his headquar- ters at LaGuyra. The ships which Ad- miral Higginson will take with him on this cruise will have an unusually large complement of marinl aboard. These pree autions are taken, not with any of- fensive intent toward Venezuela. but merely to guard against an outbreak of anarchy and rioting in the event that the revolutionists should prevail over Cas- tro's forces in she field. Owing to Ad- miral Higginsons rank he naturally would command any joint operations that might be incident to the landing of na- val forces of various nationalities.
