them for digging three "dry holes"
under contract whereby they were
to dig a well at certain price per
foot and half price for "dry hole. {"

TEST OF ENDURANCE
BOTH SIDES IN PAck,NohoUsE
STRIKE SETTLE DOWN ron
LONG STRUGGLE.

Chicago, Aug. 3.-The strike Of the
stock yards butchers and allied trades
has settled into test of endurance
Both sides are quite emphatic in
expressions of satisfaction with the
situation and each asserts that victory
is in sight.
Despite the claims of the strikers
that the packers must shortly give in
there is no question but that the plants
are now working up to so per cent
capacity and that the forces are be.
ing steadily augmented.
The packers during the day applied
Gor police protection for their dis.
tributihg plants at Sixteenth and State
streets and George street and Lincoln
avenue. The branch houses Of the
packers were surrounded by union
pickets, who turned back all the retail
butchers with wagons after supplies
Of meat. Police were dispatched to
prevent further interference with the
retailers.
The first eviction resulting from the
strike was made during the day. A
crowd Of strike sympathizers stoned
two constables who put Mrs. Mary
Anderson out Of her home in Forty.
fourth street for non.payment Of rent
Mrs. Anderson's husband, . striker,
had left Chicago in search of work.
The wife was i'll in bed when carried
out by constables. Mrs. Anderson was
cared for by neighbors. A patrol
wagon of police stopped the stone
thrcwers.
Before the arrival of the police,
however, the crowd had wrecked the
cottage from which the woman had
been evicted. Nothing was left for
any other tenant except bare walls.
Windows doors. shelves, plumbing,
etc, were smashed beyond all repair.
The allied trades announced during
the afternoon that mandamus proceed
ings will be instituted against City
Building Commissioner Williams to
compel him to take action against the
packers for alleged violation of the
city ordinances in housing strike
breakers in the stock yards.

RUST IN R. R. Valley
WHEAT YIELD GREATLY OVER
ESTIMTED FOR THE COUN-
TRY. NORTH DAKOTA IN
BEST SHAPE.

Reports Of rust In graiL are be-
coming common in the southeastern
part of the state but so far no tr0u-
ble has been found in the James
river or western part Of the state.
Every thing depends on the weather
OF the next few weeks as to the e1-
tent OF rust damages. H. v. Jones,
the Minneapolis expert has been
been making trip around the north
western states and gives his con.
clusions as to the crop and the great
ly overestimated prospect as a whole.
He says; s'The northwest wheat
crop will be very Disappointing to
those who have pinned their faith t.
the extravagant claims issued recent
ly by the government and northwest
estimators, who work from their
Offices rather than from the field.
Except in North Dakota the promise
has not been high for wheat at any
time. The promise in North Dakota
ranged from fair to bumper, accord
lug to localities, but serious loss of
yield is threatened by the black rust
In that state that may force a wheat
calamity or simply result in loss IN
yield, depending on whether the rust
moves over the state and attacks late
wheat at the time Of going into the
dough.
There are threatening indications
as the rust has done more or less
serious work over South Dakota and
in the south half of Minnesota and
is advancing apparently. into North
Dakota, the southern counties being
infected.
Much of this kind Of wheat will be
mere chat or screenings.
Some that promised twenty bushels
will not De cut, so badly infected is
1t.
South Dakota has not moderate
