The situation abroad is one of falr as- surance. The English crop prospects are Seasonable weather throughout was of great benefit. Stocks throughout the United Kingdom are com- pletely exhausted. Consumers of all Kinds | must depend upon foreign importation of wheat and flour to carry them into thelr own crop. English farmers scraped their bins dry in order that they might sell during the period of high prices. England will require 480,000 quarters of foreign breadstuffs per week for almost six weeks. Port stocks are now below the level of 1,000,000 quarters. These cond tions exist in the face of the largest im- ports ever known to the British trade. Russla feports drought in the eastern part of the empire. In Southern Russia heavy and continuous rains have fallen, and there are now reports of crop dam- age. Poland crop prospects are good. Re- ports from the Samara and Charkov gov- ernments are very unfavorable, as the crops e suffering from want of rain. wheat In Southwestern Russia has recently improved and now shows better condition than at this time in 1897. French prospects are good. The crop promises from 65,000,000 to 85,000,000 bush- €ls more than 1897.

India reports large shipments of wheat to Europe still continue, and the total of the seagon is close on 3,000,000 quarters. The yleld of the wheat crop in the Bom- bay Presidency is given at 3,560,000 quar- ters, being 1,650,000 quarters larger than last year’'s short crop. The monsoon has set in, and it remains to be seen how long it v;lll last and if it will be well distrib- uted. Argentine—Last year's crop completely sold out. There will be an increased wheat acreage. Sowing of wheat has just commenced. Spain reports wheat conditions very fa- vorable; expecting to have 10,000,000 bush- els for export this year. Sweden—Crop conditions are unfavor- able, on account of cold and unseason- able weather. Turkey reports conditions excellent; a good crop 18 looked for. Bulgaria—Harvest secured. Barley crop very large; wheat acreage greatly de- creased. Greece—Wheat grown, resulting from war causes. Australia—Good rains—the best for five years; prospects bright.

NEARLY ALL FAVORITES IN FEAR NOT, THE ONLY ONE OF THY SHORT ENDERS. | A Rattling Course Yesterday and a | Lively Field Promised for To-day at Both Parks, A fast list of entries furnished excellent sport at Union Coursing Park yesterday, and 'the betting was lively. Favorites reigned supreme during the running, and "tgle talent reaped shekels in abundance. { The shortenders were tempted with odds | ranging from 35 to 4 to 1, and in only one i{xslall('u did fortune smile upon them. Fear Not was played heavily by the latter class, as odds of 4 to 1 were offered that | Terrona would win. The latter dog led | up to the turn, but Fear Not passed him, | and began working the hare, earning the flag and causing joy to those who were aboard. Ot the sixty-four dogs entered but one failed to materialize. The prizes offered for winners in the stake are many and generous, and this accounts for the num- ber competing. Very little delay occurred ‘m deciding the courses, and the card was { Tun off before 5:30 o'clock. The undefeated | dogs that will compete in to-day's meet are a speedy and uncertain lot, and bet- tors should have all kinds of ‘surprises.

Major Winchell, of the Salvation Army, has just returned from the army's col- ony at Fort Romie, near Soledad, and he reports the venture to be a success. There are houses there for seventy fam- flies, but owing to the dry season only half that number of colonists have been allowed to go to the place. The major says that e colony has 2% acres of land under cultivation, of which eighty are in potatoes, fifty in beans, twenty-five Pfl: fruit tfieel. fifty In hay and the rest sugar beets and other products. The Jand is under fine cultivation, having lenty of water from the artesian wells. uth for 100 miles the country is barren. The Salvation Army is so well pleased with this venture that a move is being made to start another colony in Fresno or In Los Angeles County. Colonel Hol- Jand of New York is on his way here to set the project in motion. . ‘Advances made on furniture and planos, with | or without removal. J, Noonan, 1017-1023 Mission. .« 5 T, J.

Old Plunkett Wins in a Hurricane Finish Over Hijo del Diablo. Notes of the Race Track. There was racing galore at Oakland yesterday and of the real old-fashionea sort—hammer and tongs from start to finish, and favorites ofttimes dethroned, only one landing. At noon the Golden Gate Club members had the track for a sweekstakes at $25 a corner, five in it. Farmer Bunch acted as starter and had the spectators in doubt | as to whether it were a vaudeville show | or a horse trot. No pools were =old, so it all went. Berry won it with Haviland off the reel, best time 2:27, although in fun | the timers hung it out 2:14%. Prior to the start Haverly reared and his sulky “ran under,” ungeating Mead, the driver, but fortunately doing no reat harm. In the opening heat it was right close, but thereafter old Haviland had it cinched under Berry's capable reinsman- ship. He beat Dandy Pat a special heat for the refreshments later along, and was decidedly in it. The regular racing card started with one of the match races between two daugh- ters of Nutwood Wilkes—Where 1s She and Central Girl. The latter won it in 22%;, 2:28%, after the long named filly | ad landed the opening heat in 2:25 flat. No pools. Then the no-record pacers took - the track and it was Primrose at 1 to 2, but she was unsteady, and finally Resort won in 2:15%, Donathan driving a race. 1 Direct was close up, both ping” badly. The quarter was :3L 1:06, and little wonder each tired. Resort | was at 5 to 1, and his party gave an ex- ultant yell as Donathan’s bronze colors flashed by the wire in the van. Peanuts, refusing to score, was left, but Williams jogged out the mile. The favorite took down the show money, but was clearly not on her best behavior. His last out Resort played the rogue and wouid not 8core. So the pacers go. In the very next race Inferno was the choice, and laid up the initial heat for Beachwood, but when it came to a ques- tion of money-hunting the colt's harness broke and Murray stopped him, returning to the stand the reverse way of the course. Nothing to It but Beachwood in 2: 5%, Butcher Boy a capital sec- ond each trip, and the gallant filly Direc- tress near at hand under the gad all the way from the head of the stretch. She's steady miss going away, but races like a Trojan coming to the wire whers they pay off. The talent got a great | dump, as Inferno won so easily his last | out it looked all over but the shouting. | Another dump came in the open to all trotters, where Zambro. the hitherto un- beaten, was a 3 to 5 shot, but landed— | minus his driver—last in the bunch owing | to a collision with Aster at the five fu long ground. - Teggles came on at his case and won {n 213 5 to 1 over Ethel Downs. The half 1:03% cooked the black ma goose as she {8 none too ame, and_carried away fast will cambro and Aster were placed, but be- hind the monex. Donathan was unhurt end Zambro readily captured at the gate of his stable. Aster’s sulky was minus a tire_and that is all the damage—except to the wise guessers who fancied Zambro and never thought he could be behind at the far turn, He did not score as steadily as was his wont and a few took their o money off. Monterey would not go in n trot, so was only third. He will yet have his day. The 2:14 vace went to Little Thorn in | 2:14%, after breaking to a standstill go- | ing away. He simply outclassed the rest i ds and the suppusedly fast hop- pled pacer, Arthur W, stopped short on the stretch in the punishing finish he got. Thorn was 1 to 2, and the sole favorite to_land the stuff throughout the day. The veteran Plunkett, after finishing last this race, came out and won the speclal event in 2:18 at 3 to 2, beating Hijo del Diablo in the stretch handily. | F W showed a world of speed and Rex Alto was too unsteady to any more than reprimand. The winner has now two cap- ital finishes well handled by Mizner, and | don’t forget old Dan when passing the medals for good driving. He always gives | the money an honest, consistent drive, and, too, hasn’t the cracks of the meeting on his staff with which to go out and lis- ten to the jingle of the bookmaker's coin. His horses go the route and look like the feed bills are at all times paid. SUMMARIES: FIRST RA Epecial match race, one¢ mile, heats, 2 in 3: Central Girl, b. m. by Nutwood Wilkes (R. Ables) ..

Novel and Attractive Features Being Arranged for the Visitors During Its Continuance. The visitor to the great Irish Falr and Industrial Exposition at Mechanies’ Pavilion will view a most remarkable spectacle if a glimpse Into the interlor of the annex at the Pavilion now is any criterfon. Many scenic artists, sign paint- ers and decorators are working on huge traveling paint frames and on scaffolds, transferring to canvas pictures of Ire- land, famous structures and scenery. To make the illusion of visitors more com- plete many of the exhibits of firms will partake of the Irish scenery character, and the young ladies and gentlemen who will participate in charge of the varlous boothe will be dressed in costumes of a handsome and appropriate material. A very beautiful booth will be the flow- er booth in charge of T. C. Butterworth, as chairman, and Miss Margaret Davis, Miss Annfe Lonergan, Miss Stasia Feath- erston and other young ladies. They will be attired in lavender and white cos- tumes, and no doubt the booth will be an attraction that will merit all the atten- tion bestowed upon it. An {nteresting test was made yesterday of a solution for rendering cheese cloth, bunting, muslin, paintings, wood, etc., absolutely fireproof in the annex of the Pavilion, and so satisfactory was it that the Irish Fair management has ordered a large quantity, and all goods and ma- terials used in the booths will be thor- oughly saturated with it. The‘represent- atives of the Fire Department were pres- ent and indorsed it, and stated that with the many wide aisl the fact that nearly every booth stood by itself, and that all the general drapings in the interior would be dipped in this, it would be the safest exposition or fair ever held in this city, and would render their wa At the last meeting of the executiv committee a committee consisting of Messrs.

It was decided to invite a delegation from the Knights of the Red Branch to act as an escort, and to ask that at the meeting ‘Wednesday night a committee or delega- tion be invited to assist in the reception and parade, and to provide carriages for them. Delegates from the various sections | of the Celtic Union, together with the members of the executive committee and management, wiil participate in the pa- rade, convey the soil in s up Market street, escorted by Bennett's band.

Frank Conklin, who obtained a con- tract to do “whitening” from the School Department, and who was referred to in the expose of Director Burns’ methods in vesterday's Call, disclaims being a spec- ulator, and in defense of his position in the matter yesterday produced a direc- tory of 1882, In which his name appears and his occupation is given as a carpet cleaner and whitener. Mr. Conklin he is a whitener and thoroughly un stands the business, and has done consid- erable work of that character. So fat as his connection with the contract is con- cerneC, he says, it was perfectly stralght. He has no apologies to make to Mr. Burns or any one connected with the School Board. Thomas Donahue, also mentioned as an Interested party in the coniract, makes affidavit to prove his right to accept such work. He says he is a practical painter and whitener, having served a regular apprenticeship. He admits being em- ployed by Mr. Conklin in the capacity of foreman and as such is overseeing the work of whitening in the School Depart- ment. e — Will of Edward H. Parker. The will of Edward H.
