not sufficient depth of water inside the reef
encircing the island to float any but
small ship, and the entrance through the

Peace Negotiations Arranged.

Peace negotiations between Guatemala
and Salvador are being arranged today by
President Roosevelt and Acting Secretary
OF State Bacon at Sycamore Hill The
question not yet settled is whether Ion
duras will become a party to the 'negotia-

1t would hardly be fair to compel Guate-
mala to face two former foes in peace
conference at one time. Honduras will prob
ably agree to the settlement arranged by
the two states primarily involved.
The negotiations. ii is stated, will doubt

A SDIcnIil Wheat CrOD.

The annual crop and business report
of the Commercial National Bank of
Chicago, covering the Mississippi Val
ley, and a few of the more important
States of the Pacific coast, says, in
part:
The wheat crop Of 1906 will be
among the largest and best ever pro
duced. The yield not only will be
great. but the weight and quality will
be far beyond the ordinary. In these
respects it may be considered nearly
perfect. The period Of uncertainty is
closing rapidly and the crop may now
be called practically out Of danger.
The yield Of soft winter wheat is large.
quality the finest and movement free.
I%nasmuch as this movement has begun
early and all grains are now nearly or
quite on an export basis (with the ten
dency Of prices downward), a large ex-
port business may be expected
