QUANTITY, QUAIL
ITY AND PRICE"
THE THREE ESSENTIALS THAT
ARE GIVING WESTERN CANADA
Greater Impulse Than Ever This Year.

The reports from the grain fields of
Central Canada, (Which comprises the
Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta) are to hand. The year
1909 has not only kept pace with pre-
vious years in proving that this por-
ton of the Continent is capable of
producing a splendidi yield Of all the
smaller grains, but it has thoroughly
outstripped previous seasons. There
is quantity, quality and price and from
all parts of an area of about 32O,0OO
square miles there .comes the strong
refrain of content1hent and satisfac-
ton. In the distribution of the con-
ditions causing it no district has been
overlooked.
Various estimates of the total yield
of wheat for the country have been
made, but it is not the vast total that
influences the general reader so much
as what has been done individually
The grand total-say $50 million bush
elS-may have its effect on the grain
price of the world; it may be interest
ing to know that in the worlds mar
kets the wheat crop of Canada has
suddenly broken upon the trading
boards, and with the Argentine, and
with Russia and India, is now a fac
tor in the making of prices If so to-
day, what will be its effect five or ten
years from now, when, instead of
there being seven million acres under
crop with a total yield of 125 or 100
million bushels, there will be from II
to 80 million acres in wheat with a
yield of from 1926 to 600 million bush
largest yield in the United States but
slightly exceeded 700 million bushels,
the greatness of these figures may be
understood. Well, such is safe fore
cast, for Canada has the land and it
has the soil. Even today the Prov
ince of Saskatchewan, one of the three
great wheat growing provinces of Can
ada, with 100000 acres under wheat,
produces nearly 80 million bushels, or
upwards of one-tenth of the greatest
yield of the United States. And Sas-
katchewan is yet only in the begin
ming of it's development. AS Lord
Grey recently pointed out in speaking
on this very subject, this years crop
does not represent one-tenth of the
soil equally fertile that is yet to be
brought under the plough.
Individually. reports are to hand
of yields of twenty-five, thirty and
thirty-five bushels to the acre. Scores
of yields are reported of forty and
some as high as sixty bushels. The
farmer, who takes care of his soil,
who gets his seed-bed ready early, is
certain of a splendid crop.
The news of the magnificent crop
yield throughout the Canadian West
will be pleasing to the friends of the
thousands of Americans who are resi-
dents in that country and who are
vastly instrumental in the assistance
they are rendering to let the world
know its capabilities.

REILLY CHARGED WITH HAVING
WICkERSHAM LETTER
PUBLISHED.
OTHER LETTERS ABSTRiCTED
Was Special Investigator for Inter
State Commerce Commission
News Causes Sensation at
Federal Building.

New York, y. Y.-Thomas p. Reilly,
special investigator for the interstate
commerce commission, was arrested
here, charged with the theft of let
ter from George W. WickeTsham,
United States attorney general, to
Henry A. Wise, United States district
attorney, from Mr. Wise's office in the
New York federal building. The let
ter subsequently appeared in the Cos
mopolitan Magazine, and it was known
that the long search had at last re-
suited in the return of an Indictment
by the federal grand jury. Whether
other indictments would follow Mr..
Wise would not say, but they are ex-
pected.
The specific charges against Reilly
in the indictment is the taking and
publishing of letters and private pa
pers without authority" in violation
of the United States revised statutes
and of the New York penal law. The
acts complained of are said to have
been committed on July l, 1909, when
Mr.. Wise was abroad.
Abstracted Other Letters.
In addition to the Wickersham let,
ter there were also distracted from
the files of the district attorneys Of
flee two letters from G. r. Heike, Sec
rotary of the American Sugar Refining
company, to John E. Parsons, council
for the company, and the minutes of
the board of directors of the company
for the meeting held at the house of
the late Theodore Havemeyer, De-
cember, 1900
Abel l. Smith, the assistant United
States district attorney, who worked
up the case against Reilly, said that
when the publication of Mr.. Wicker
sham's letter first greeted the eyes of
Mr.. Wise, shortly after his return
from Europe, he Immediately institut-
ed a search for the original The
Wickersham letter he had left in his
desk. 1t was found, finally, in the
"W'' file. A copy had evidently been
taken for publication. The Heike-
Parsons letter had also been copied,
for the originals were recovered in the
office file, but the minutes of the com
pany's board Of directors have appar-
emily disappeared for good.
News Creates Sensation.
News of the arrest caused a sensa-
tion in the federal building, where
Reilly was known as a protege of
Henry I. Stimson, now special counsel
for the government in it's prosecution
of the sugar cases and formerly Unit
ed States district attorney 1t was
upon information furnished by Reilly
to Mr.. Stimson that the government
prosecuted with success the New
York Central, Rock Island, Chicago.
Milwaukee and ST. Paul, Central Yer
mont, Western Transit company. and
other railroad and transit companies
for giving rebates on sugar shipments
in violation of the Hepburn law The
railroads on pleas of guilty were all
heavily fined. George Van MASSEY,
business manager of the magazine.
and Psrrigon Maxwell, managing edi-
tor, have both testified before the
grand jury as to the price they paid
for the Wickersham letter as it ap-
pears in the Cosmopolitan Magazine,
but this information has not been made
public.
