Four Months From March to July

Washington, July 20.--In answer to
the criticism made against the bu.
reau OF statistics Of the department
Of agriculture because of the alleged
inaccuracy of its report in March last
on the amount of wheat on farms, a
statement was issued by the bureau
In defense OF its estimate.
The bureau estimated that there
were about 144.00000O bushels of
wheat on farms March /. 1902 This
estimate was challenged as being
much too large. The statement is in
part as follows:
"ln considering this question. ac
count must be taken of the apparent
supply and distribution of wheat dur.
ing the four months from March l to
July /. 1909. To this date II is nee.
essary TO assume as approximately
correct estimates which have been
generally accepted without serious
question and TO ascertain, first. the
average monthly domestic consump.
tton OF wheat exclusive of seed re.
quirements, and second. the approx
mate total quantity OF wheat In all
positions In the United States on
March /, 1909.
Assuming that about 40,000,000
bushels per month were consumed,
exclusive Of seed. the apparent sup
ply and distribution of wheat during
the four months from March / TO
July /, 1909. was as follows:
Domestic consumption. estimated,
160,000.000 bushels; spring wheat
requirements. estimated, $4,000 900;
exports, including -four, 100000;
commercial stocks July /, 1909 In.
cluding -four. 2S,OO0,OO0: farm stocks
July |, 1909. estimated. 100000;
quantity in United States on March
]. 1909. 244,000.000.
'Of these 244,000,000 bushels about
74,000,000 bushels are accounted for
by an accepted commercial statement
Of reported stocks in second hands
tmills and elevatorsl, including tbs
wheat equivalent Of flour on March l,
1869. The remainder. l7O,OOo,OOO
bushels! must have been on farms
and in upreported stocks in second
hands on the date named. The esti.
mate OF wheat on farms on March
(about 144,000,000 busncls) would
leave about 26,OO0,0 900 bushels as the
unreported amount in second hands
on that date But this is more than
the amount estimated as having been
so held. such amount being approx
mated as 20 per cent OF the total
quantity, reported and unreported,
then in second hands. the reported
stocks being regarded as embracing
about so per cent of the total. Twen-
~ per cent Of the total stocks would
have been about 100000 bushels
unreported, which indicates that the
quantity of wheat on farms on March
], 1909, was more likely to have been
underestimate than overestimated
by the bureau Of statistics"
The statement. which has the ap-
proval of Secretary Wilson. says in
conclusion that the widely published
attack upon the estimate was in.
spired solely by the desire of specu.
lators to gain personal financial prof.

In a terrific gale that ragged Friday
owe the British Isles the steamer
Thistlemor went to her doom off APP
pledere ip Barnstable bay. It is be-
lieved her entire crew of thirty men
persisted. -Four bodies from the steam
er already have been washed ashore.
The Thistlemor was in command of
Capt. Yeo and was bound from Liver
pool for an American port.
Small vessels everywhere were at
the mercy Of the elements, and Lloyds
reports eight Of them have beer driv-
en- ashore at various points. Their
crews, however, all escaped.
The British steamer Congress, which
arrived at Falmouth Friday, reports
that during the storm her captain, the
mate and one seaman were washed

seaman was picked up, but the cap
tain and mate persisted.

caught the gale half way up Biddle-

other vessel vas in distress in the
same vicinity, but proceeded OF her
way, and it is hoped that she may
have saved some of the crew of the

safe at Barry.
It is feared that another disaster
occurred in the Irish channel. The

FIGHT GOES TO SAN FRANCISCO
Jeffries and johnson Will Battle fol
Purse of Over $780, 900.

The worlds championship fight be-
tween James j. Jeffries and Jack
Johnson will be held in San Francisco
before a club organized by "Tex''
Richard, of Ely, New, and Jack Glea-
son, the fight to take place probably
on July 4, 1910. The bid made by
Richard and Gleason of a purse of
100000 and the contestants to take
sc 2-3 per cen of the moving picture
receipts was accepted by representa-
tives of Johnson and Jeffries Thursday
afternoon.
The-successful bid provides that the
fight shall take place in California,
Utah or Nevada on a date to be set
later, but it was stated that without
doubt the contest would take place in
San Francisco. In view of the fact
that James Coffroth, of the
Sunshine Athletic club, of Colma. Cal.
controls certain patents on moving
pictures, it was thought Richard and
Gleason would likely enter into some
arrangements with him whereby they
could have the fight take place in the
Colma arena.
TEX Richard said: my bid was
for Utah, Nevada or California, but in
Utah it is not at all certain that we
can hold the fight. In Nevada, where
the laws will permit it, we cannot get
a crowd large enough to pay the guar
anteed purse, so that leaves San Fran
cisco with practically a clear field"
Other bids were considered better
by some, particularly that of tom"
McCarey, of Los Angles, but the con-
troll of the moving picture patents by
