WHEAT CROP PROSPECT 5000
BETTER THAN LAST YEAR BUT
UNDER FIvE-YEAR AVERAGE.
Winter Wheat Shows Some DAMAGE
But Spring Cereal Is 100000
Above Average.

Washington, June 1.-THE prospec-
tive wheat crop Of the United States
this year is forecast by the Depart
ment Of Agriculture at 656,OO0,OOO bu-
shells, combining revised estimate
of the badly damaged winter wheat
crop and the first estimate of the new
spring wheat crop based on June 1
conditions. That compares with 64O,-
100000 bushels harvested last year
and S06,000,OO0 bushels, the average
crop for 1915.
Better Weather Helps.
Improved weather condition during
May increased prospects of winter
wheat and indicated crop Of 373, 0OO,-
600 bushels. The crop began this spring
under adverse conditions, 12,437, 900
acres having to be abandoned because
of severe winter and other causes.
April l conditions indicated pro-
duction of 430,O00,0OO bushels, but dur
ing that month growing conditions
were so poor that the May 1 forecast
was reduced to 366,116Oo0 bushels.
Spring Wheat Above Average.
The increased spring wheat area,
placed at 100000 acres, and the
good start of this crop under excellent
growing conditions indicate produc-
tion Of 2S3,OO0,OOO bushels, compared
with 158,142.OO0 bushels last year,
351,S54,0O0 bushels in 1915 and $780,
$1,000 bushels, the average for the
previous five years.

RUSH FOOD SUPPLIES

sequences Is Statement Made in
British Press.

London, June Sin the House of
Commons Captain Charles Bathurst,
parliamentary secretary to the food
control department, said it was not in
the public interest to give any infor-
nation regarding food supplies, but it
was of the greatest importance to the
success of the Allies cause that food
exports from America should be on
the highest possible scale for the rest
of the war.
Captain Bathurst's statement is
somewhat disquieting to the public and
the press. The Daily Chronicle re.
fers to the delay in the execution by
the Washington administration of the
food plans, owing to the disagreement
in Congress. IF extended further"
the Chronicle says, "the delays might

Pessimism In Some Quarters.
In some quarters it has developed
the most intense pessimism. In 9TH
ers, especially among some members
of the Council of National Defense,
there is feeling of relief that decep-

that the American nation has at last
been permitted to face the cold fact
that the success or failure of the Al

Russia No Longer Factor.
1t Is no longer secret that as an
offensive factor Russia has collapsed,

Nothing but the rise of a Russian

dictatorship can save the Slav situa.

Butte, Mont, June 11.-With 81
known dead and 1911 men missing as
the result of fire which broke out
in the Spectator copper mine, Butte
is facing the worst mining disaster
in its history. The fire broke out in
the lower levels of the mine, start
ing from a broken power cable that
carried electricity to the underground
pumps. Lower levels of the mine
quickly filled with smoke and gas.
Escape Through Other Mines.
There were Ais men on the night
shift. OF these 213 escaped through
levels connecting with other mines.
The gas spread to the Diamond mine
and took further toll of life in that
property.
Helmet men, mine rescue crews and
safety-first squads from all the mines
in Butte undertook to penetrate the
gaslilled workings of the Spectator,
the Diamond and high ore mines, in
the hope of finding the missing miners.
Officials said that if the 1861 missing
miners are not found to have made
their way to the high ore mine work
ings they are doomed.
Missing Men Probably Doomed.
The fire which started on the 2,4OO
foot level spread quickly. cutting off
the escape Of men on lower levels.
Dense smoke retarded rescue work.
Miners from adjoining properties Or
dered up from underground as a pre-
caution, went to work as rescuing
gangs, aiding national guardsmen who
had been called to the scene. They
were able to do little.
Rescue Efforts In Vain.
Their efforts were fruitless After

and smoke proof helmets from Red
