CROP CONDITIONS.
Weekly Summary Issued by the Wealth. CT Bureau.

Washington. July 1S.-The weekly bulletin of the weather bureau sum- marizes crop conditions as follows:
 Favorable temperatures prevailed during the week ending July IT.. throughout the country. Heavy rains interfered with work in the Ohio valley and over a large part of the South Atlantic and East Gulf States. but a very general absence of rain in the west gulf districts with only light showers over much of the Mis- souri and upper Mississippi valleys. af- forded favorable opportunity for much needed cultivation. Rain would be of great benefit in the southern plateau region.
 ' Corn has made splendid progress throughout nearly the whole of the corn belt and Is decidedly improved in the States of the Missouri valley. While the general outlook for this crop Is very promising, 1t has sustained some injury on low land in Missouri and in portions of the South Atlantic and East Gulf States. Further reports of injury to harvested winter wheat are received from the central Mississippi and ohio valleys. the middle Atlantic States, Texas and Oklahoma and h. dian Territoy, but no complaints of the character are received from Kan sas and Nebraska. Harvesting where not finished in the more northerly dis tricts, is well advanced. Spring wheat has experienced a week of fav- orabIe weather and continues in prom ising condition. In the central Missis- sippi and Ohio valleys and in portions of the middle Atlantic States oats harvest has been interrupted and con- siderable damage to both harvested and standing oats has resulted from wet weather Harvesting Is largely finish ed except in the more northerly dis- tricts where good yields are promised.
 Too rapid growth of cotton and light fruiting are generally reported throughout the cotton belt. an improve ment is indicated in many districts. The crop continues to suner rom lack of cultivation, especially in the central and western portions of the belt where, however, the weather for the past week has been favorable for cleaning the fields, a work which has been pushed vigorously In Mississippi. Arkansas and Louisiana reports of abandoned fields continue.
 Damages by boil weevils in Texas Is generally not great though consider able in localities
 Too much rain caused injury to to- bacco in Kentucky, Virginia and Mary land where the crop has suffered rom lack of cultivation, but notwithstand- ing these conditions the outlook In Kentucky is promising. marked inn provement is noted in Ohio. Pennsyl- vania and New York, and the crop is doing well in New England and Wis consin Curing is progressing In the Carolinas, where the yield IS below the average. Much hay has been damaged in the Central Mississippi and ono val Ieys and Middle Atlantic States, but In New England and the Missouri and up- per Mississippi valleys hay has pro gressed under favorable conditions. Nearly all reports indicate an inferior annie crOu

Tn Rebuild DepOt.

Louisville. Ky, July 18.-The Louis vile and Nashville Railroad Company arranged today to use the train sheds in the rear of their depot which was burned last night and trains were sent out on schedule time. Neither the Pennsylvania nor the Monon roads. which also use the union station. suf- fered any delay A temporary ticket office and quarters for the train dis patchers are being erected.
 The depot was totally destroyed. The loss is about $300.oO0. The Louis vilIe and Nashville carries it's own in- surance on all buildings and rolling stock. and no insurance company. therefore. is concerned in the loss. All records for twenty years and Islps and plans of the engineering department were destroyed. Only one person was tniured-a Mrs. Broadbent, of Pensa- cola, Fla. who was slightly cut by falling glass. The depot will be re built at once

THE RATE PROBLEM.
Speech by Congressman Townsend as
 Toledo, Ohio.

Speech by Congressman Townsend aS
 Toledo, Ohio.
 Toledo. O., July 1S.-"The welfare of the railroads and the welfare of the people of this country depends on an early and fair and just settlement of the rate problem. There may be a compromise, but there cannot be compromise of principle. The law calls for a fair and just rate to all and that is the only settlement upon which the people will make an agree ment." T.:
 So spoke Congressman Charles E.. Townsend of Michigan to the members of the National Hay Association in con- vention in this city this afternoon, Here is a case that came before us last year." he went on. Tt Is possible to ship 100 pounds of cotton goods from Chicago to Boston for $1.25. A shipment of the same fromChicago to Salt Lake City cost $2.50. Here is the would save money by sending his goods from Boston to San Francisco and then to Salt Lake City. He could do it cheaper.
 ITO give facts that you will under stand even better. If you shipped goods from Toledo to New York for exporta- ton to foreign country. the rate would be from one-third to one-half under the charge that would be made If the goods were to be consumed in New York. :
 There are two parties to the freight rate contract. the railroads and the people. The trouble in the past has been that judges held the individual and the corporation as equals. This is wrong in my opinion. The railroads have the power to condemn property for their right of way. to fore you to sell out, they have been given land. They have the better of the individual in almost every way. How can any man say they are equal before the law?
 The one sure way to make the rail- roads and other big public service corr porations live np to their contracts is through the courts and before an hon. est and efficient tribunal. People will say that I am an anarchist. or at least that those are anarchistic utterances. but I know different. l am merely asking for what Is. to use the lam ruaRe of President Roosevelt, square deal'"
