TO what extent this buying power will
be enhanced by the production from the
soil IS matter of conjecture, but ac-
cepting the governments estimates on
the value OF the crops based on the con-
ditions at this season of the year, a fairly
accurate idea of the new wealth created
from this source can be obtained and

These estimates indicate an increase
in the value OF total crop production al

ss17 900. 600 OF this amount S365,2OO.oOP'
or more than half comes from ten crops

What weather conditions will produce IN
the remaining weeks Of the season it Is
impossible to say. but nature has smiled
benefcently on this country, and as a re-
suit of the bountiful precipitation in the
early part OF the year has stored moist

Revival in the Steel Industry.

steel industry, and the most striking feat
ure Of the development since the hrst
Of the year In the iron and steel trade is
the tremendous tonnage and the high per
centage Of operation, induced, no DOUBT
by the low prices for finished products.
Last fall. and in fact during the greater
part OF last year. steel operations were
at low ebb, and the railroads, as result
Of their enforced retrenchment, postponed
buying for other than immediate require
ments. The outcome of this policy was
an accumulation OF needs that forced
them into the market in the early part
II the present year. and in fact over
vhelmed the steel mills and taxed the
furnaces 20 their full capacity.
Even in face Of the tremendously in
creased steel producing capacity OF tho
last few years the mills have found them
selves so congested with orders that even
With the inducements of a premium, they
are unable to promise delivery on new
orders within the present year. lhls

Railroad Problem Difficult to Solve.
AT the same time. unless there is some

Removal of Mud and Sediment
Revenue Cutter in Port.

of her boiler at her headquarters at
the engineers wharf on Potomac Park
the United States engineers tug Castle
has been lying at the lighthouse serv-
ice pier, foot of 0 street southwest,
for the past three days. giving her big
steam maker a thorough washing out.
to remove the mud and sediment left
by the water that has been converted
into steam. Cleaning is as neces-
sary to the welfare of the boilers
as thorough bathing is to human be-
ings. and Capt. Bell is taking ad-
vantage of a short period of idleness
for his vessel to do this necessary
work. The Castle will probably be
ready to return to service this after
noon.
Paying one of her periodical visits to
this city, the United States revenue
cutter Apache. Capt. Carmine. arrived
here yesterday and is lying at the
Naval Battalion wharf in the lower
end of the harbor. While here it Is
probable that the officers of the cut
ter will visit the vessels in the harbor to
see that they are complying with the
navigation laws, and the power boats
will also be given an inspection.
The Apache will probably remain In
port here for several days.

WEEPS WHEN BILL FAILS.
Mrs. Catherine Macdonald Breaks
Down in House Gallery

The failure Of the House yesterday aft
ernoon to pass over the Presidents veto
the bin recently repassed in the Senate
to pay claims of those who furnished la
Dor and materials i'm building the Cor
bett tunnel, Shoshone irrigation project,
caused the breakdown of the most ear
nest supporter of the measure, a little
woman dressed in black, who watched
with breathless interest the proceedings
in the House. When the vote was an
nounced. 49, to as. six short Of the neces-
sary two-thirds. she wept bitterly Rep
resentative Mondell of Wyoming, one of
those who tried to pass the bill over the
veto. hurried to the gallery and led her
away.
She was Mrs. Katherine Macdonald of
Butte. Mon, the principal beneficiary
under the bill. She and her husband ran
a mercantile store in connection with the
irrigation project. They advanced to the
contractors about $4,000 worth of goods
Through no fault OF the MacDonalds the
concern went into bankruptcy.
For more than year Mrs. Macdonald
has urged Congress to pass the bill. and
yesterday she was confident that the bill
would pass over the veto, as it had done
in the Senate. She declared that the fail
ure of its passage meant ruin for herself
and her husband
