Hot weather prevails over the greater
portion Of the United States, according
TO reports received at the weather bu-
reau at Washington. Apparently there
Is no immediate relief in sight except
through local thunder storm In several
scattered sections. Throughout the
west the reports indicate increasing
hot weather. The humidity IL high all
over the Atlantic coast from New Eng.
land TO Florida, and the prospect IL
that 1t will continue ~ two or three
days with northeast 20 south winds.
In Washington. d. c., Wednesday
the maximum temperature was IS de-
grees. There were q number Of heat
prOstratiOus there but 90 far a. reported
none Of them has resulted fatally.
Undiminiahed heat and humidity
marked the fifth day OF the torrid wave
that has afflicted New York, and to-
night there Is no immediate prospect
Of relief. Ten deaths and nearly three
score cases OF prostration was the re-
cord for Wednesday. Some Of the VIC
tins Of the heat were rendered insane
by their suffering. In Brooklyn Daniel
Mccarthy sought relief by drinking
carbolic acid and died Immediately.

ANOTHER SCANDAL LIKELY.
Department Of Agriculture L. Under

Department Of Agriculture ls Under
Fra.
II the scandal In the department Of
agriculture. involving the integrity Of
the crop reports, should develop into
such gigantic an affair as il now init
mated may be possible It would far
.overshadow the postofice departments
troubles.
Originally it was merely charged
that there had been a leakage, by
which advance information reached
spectators concerning the report on
the cotton crop. This caused the sus-
pension Of Edwin s. Holmes, assistant
statistician of the department Then
came the more serious charge that the
figures OF the crop conditions had
been tempered with and the public had
been given a dishonest report. while
favored spectators had been permit
ted to know Tue truth.
On the heels Of this report Of the
manipulation Of the figures came the
intimation. from Secretary Cheatham
Of the Southern Cotton association,
that before he was done he would raise
serious question as to the honesty Of
all the crop reports. This brings the
matter up close to the northern and
western farmer, as it has already been
brought to the southern planter.
The allegation involves the reports
on corn, wheat, oats. fruits. hay and
every agricultural staple. The gov
eminent reports have been supposed
the most reliable.
