PREDICTIONS OF WAR.
Claimed Japan and Russia Are Both
Preparing.

London, Dec. 21.-Lloyd's UNDER
writer's are insuring against an out
break of war between Russia and
Japan in 1907 at guineas or 5.25
per cent.
It is generally recognized that the
time for the renewal of hostilities Is
not yet. but there are clear signs
that only for the financial condition
of both Russia and Japan hostilities
would have been declared long ere
this. Russia's naval strength in the
east is being strengthened daily and
Japan will soon have eight battle
ships of the Dreadnaught type, while
the continued increase of her fight
ing strength ashore is remarkable.
For a time Japan increased her
army only by the four divisions rais-
ed during the war; but it is now an
nounced that 1t will be increased by
increased daily and the most improv-
ed machine guns are being attached
to every infantry regiment. The
railway troops, and balloon corps are
being greatly increased as are also
the fortress artillery. In the mean
time Russia is improving her condi-
ton as she has 1877 batallions now,
while she had only IS before the last
war Altogether in West Siberia,
Trans-Baikal and the maritime prov
ince Russia has nine divisions of RI
files and one of foot, with three re-
serve brigades of foot. The latter are
twice as strong as they were before
the war.
Thus Russia has 15 field and re-
serve divisions, not including the
force at Hardin, which must be evac-
uated next April. each of 16 batal-
lions, totaling 256 batallions as COM
pared with only 1876 mobile batallions
at the beginning of 1905. Her cav
airy strength is about the same as II
was before. Her field artillery has
been increased from 16 to 63 bat
teries each of so horses, forming 90
batteries of nine guns each In war.
Mountain batteries have been formed
and all ports in the east manned
while communication with European
Russia is now shorter and less liable
to interruption.

Chattel Mortgage Claims TO Sheer

s. s. Williams and I. S. Goodwin,
respondents, vs. First National Bank
Of Ontario, ct al, appellants, from
Grant county, George E. Davis, Judge,
affirmed; opinion by Justice HALEY.
This was an action to recover pos
session of 2316 sheep mortgaged to
plaintiffs by L. S. Wickersham, the
owner. who afterward mortgaged
them to defendant bank, which
claims a right to their possession un-
der its mortgage. Prior to the time
the defendant bank took its mortgage
the plaintiffs had left their note with
the bank for collection, at the same
time informing the cashier that they
held a mortgage on wickersham's
sheep.
The supreme court holds that this
was notice to the bank of the prior
mortgage and the banks was not a
mortgage in good faith. The judg-
ment in favor OF plaintiffs is there
fore affirmed.-Ontario Democrat.

MEXICAN MARKET FOR AMERICAN WHEAT

The duty on imported wheat was
removed entirely during the first six
months of this year, and during this
period the importation was much
larger than any previous year. The
importation Of American wheat into
Mexico during the last 12' months
amounted to 100000 gold, demon
strating that this is the nearest avail
able market for American wheat.
The supply here is never equal to
the demand. and this will prove a
profitable field for American wheat
exporters. The railroads entering
Mexico are all of the standard gauge
and are fully equipped for the hand
ling and prompt delivery without
change to points of delivery.

mexican market for american wheat
Consul Victor L. Duhaime OF Sal
tillo, states that Coahuila holds the
third place among the states produce
ing the largest amount Of wheat in
Mexico. He writes:
In this consular district alone the
crop for this year is estimated to be
about 100000 bushels The yield
generally averages from 10 to Is
bushels to the acre. Winter red
wheat is sown in October and the crop
gathered the following May or June.
The quality compares /favorably with
United States wheat.
The price ranges from $3.50 to SO
per bushel Mexican currency ($1.25
to $1.50 United States currency. J..
About one-third of this crop is grown
by irrigation. The wages paid to
workmen for harvesting ranges from
75 cents to 81 day Mexican curren-
cy (37k to so cents United States
currency.
This branch of agriculture is yet
entirely in the hands OF Mexican
of modern agricultural implements
the area is being increased each year.
The large steam plows, cultivators
threshers and engines, and almost
every kind of improved farming ma
chinery now aid In the preparation
of a greater amount of virgin soil,
not undertaken before owing to the
crude facilities.
This improved system OF economic
cultivation by labor-saving machin-
cry has proved to be so profitable and
attractive that land owners are now
directing their attention to this
branch Of agriculture with much
more energy and activity. Conse-
quently the value Of agricultural land
is advancing appreciably and the
farming sections are becoming more
thickly settled and prosperous. Trav-
cling modern steam threshing ma
chimes are in general use.
In this vicinity there are six mod
ern rolling mills running by steam
and nine stone mills operated by wa
ter power. The flour they produce is
OF an excellent quality and finds sale
in all parts of the republic. so much
so that a large amount of wheat is
imported here from the United States,
keeping these mills in constant oper-
alton day and night to supply the de-
mand for the fine grade of flour
which this locality has acquired a
reputation for. It is shipped in bur-
lap sacks. two bags containing about
200 pounds. or one barrel of flour, the
demand usually exceeding the sup
ply.
Wheat straw furnishes the princi-
pal food for the animals. there being
no hay raised here. Owing to some
popularity of the soil It contains suf-
ficient nutritive element to replace
hay in feeding stock, on which they
thrive and keep in good healthy con-
dition. The price of wheat straw
ranges from SO to $50 Mexican cur
rency (35 to $40 United States cur
rency) per ton. owing to its abund-
ance and proximity to market.
