Washington. Dec. '3o.-AIthough the
final results Of the crop Of 1906 In
Russia VIII not be determined for some
time, enough is known to make II
clear to government experts here that
the Russian peasant Is facing one Of
the worst famlnes Russia has known
during the last twenty years.
According 10 the preliminary report
OF the central statistical committee,
the entire crop OF winter wheat equals
23s.eo0,0 600 bushels, and OF spring
wheat 29s,ooo.oo The rye crop is
se3, 900. 900 bushels. This makes the
wheat crop l00,0 O0, 900 bushels short
of the previous years crop and more
than $780, 900 600 bushels short Of the
crop of 1904. The wheat crop OF 1906
IN the smallest Russia has had since
1897.

Discussing the Russian grain short

farmer In this situation In not only
an sltruistic one. for it's effects upon
the International grain market will be
important, Already the unusual situa-
ton liz met with that kronstadt. from
OF rye have been shipped In previous
years, has recorded during this autumn
bic imports OF rye from Ger
many and Denmark. But II IN upon

will be most felt an more than 80
per cent OF the net wheat crop OF Rus

During recynt years the production
Of durum wffat IN the United States
has rapidly increased, having reached
now an estimated total of SO, 600 600
bushels, OF which the domestic market
may not absorb more than 10000, 600
bushels. and the remainder is avail
able for European markets. primarily
those OF the Mediterranean ports. where
the demand for durum wheat is strong
est. 1t was In these that Russia knew
almost 10 competitors.
The present shortage strikes with,
greatest severity just those regions
whore durum wheat, which Is n spring
wheat In Russia, is raised. whatever
spring wheat has been gathered Is
recognized TO he of n very inferior

TABULATED STANDING. Waterbury Broke Even On Wins and Losses During the Week.

Holyoke is still the leader and has increased her advantage over her nearest competitor, being now over 100 points ahead of Hartford, who has taken the second place away from Springfield. The latter team had sad week, winning only two of the seven games played, dropping down in close proximity to Water bury and Norwich. who are tied for the fourth position. Bridgeport won four out of the seven played and is to be reckoned with during the com ing weeks. Norwich won four out of seven and deserves to hold better position, New Haven. like Holyoke, had four wins and two losses while New London managed to get one vic tory, that one in this city yesterday. There are four teams tied with the greatest number of victories over any onefteam, Holyoke having nine over Norwich. Hartford the same number over Bridgeport, Waterbury with nine from New London and New Ha- ven with a like number over the Whalers. New London has yet to de- feat Springfield one game, while all the others have broken each others states. The following is the stand ing, including yesterdays games in this city and in Bridgeport:

Of three innings was indulged In, were settled without further comment when the second game Of New Ha- ven and New London had been com- pleted. New Haven outdistanced the others, leading Bridgeport by three runs and allowing Holyoke the eleven runs made in the fiasco, which some pools did allow, but which the great majority, including the Democrat pools, did not, she would still be in the lead by one run. Run making was pretty scarce article last week. Bridgeport in her six games played, made the most hits, whiIe Hartford, who hammered the ball for an extra ordinary number of hits the week be- fore fell the lowest in the list The batting was weak all around, the low est team of the week before nearly equaling the highest team of the past week.

ing claim to the pennant for the past few weeks. Such wretched exhibi- tion was given behind Farley that 1t was enough to make even the most settled twirler nervous but through 1t all our premier pitcher came out with flying colors and when in desperate position because of the misplays be- hind him he smilingly struck out the batsman. Eleven strike outs and against the team that has been going through the league like house on fire, is doing pretty well. Hartford made desperate stab to win in the ninth inning but Farley by his watchfulness struck out the man that was to kill the ball, while that worthy, Rothfuss, was asleep at the switch. It was an exciting game to watch and interesting, aside from the errors, both sides being very much guilty. The score:

WARD IS THE

Still Over the Three Hundred Mark Records of Teams and the ... Players.

Little Ward still holds premier hon. ors in the batting line. and with rec ord of one point less than last week he is the only man to pass the 300 mark. Bronkie, who is second, fell off five points from his record of the week previous. Lachance, while dropping ten points, still holds the third position, and Mike McAndrews, who probably took some pride in his new position as captain, came up the line with rush and stands close to Candy" The others hold relatively the same positions and practically the same percentages. with Rice and Ryan being the exceptions. Rice gain ed nineteen points, while Ryan jump ed ahead with the big record Of forty-one points of a gain. It was light batting week and no remarkable stunts were performed.

Waterbury Falls by the Wayside for
 the First Time.

For the first time this season the local team has had to take back seat to the teams that opposed her both in fielding and batting While we in- creased our points in hitting by six. those who opposed us seemed to take a liking to the ball still better. and we were left in the shade by four points. In fielding we have the remarkable coincidence that the locals dropped thirty points. while those who were against us gained just thirty. That Springfield game in which we tried to see how many misplays we could make. and finally did manage to get ten. sent us down the line with a rush.
