Which AccoanU for tho Pouroally Small Consumption of Corn — Returns From Jfurth and South Dakota. Nebraska and Kansas Show Many Farmers Without Sufficient Drain for Saed or Food. Washington, March 12.—The crop report of the department of agriculture for March consists principally of estimates of the distribution of corn and wheat, the stocks remaining in the hands of farmers, and the proportions of merchantable and unmerchantable. The report is based on county estimates of the percentage of last year's product remaining in first hands. Obvious errors and inconsistencies of statement being corrected and differences harmonized. All grain in the hands of farmers, including amounts remaining over from previous years, are embraced in the esti-
mates given.
The corn on hand, as estimated, aggregates 475,564,450 bushels, or 89.2 per cent of the last crop. This proportion has been exceeded but four times in the last 10 years. The quantity, however, is an unprecedentedly small one. The consumption of corn for eight months is an unusually small one, which fact is explained by the large amo'int of wheat fed to stock. The aggregate sold from farms to go beyond county borders is 162,984,640, or 18.4 per cent of the crop. The proportion merchantable is 999,400,600 bushels, or 82.4 per cent. The values returned for merchantable corn average 44.8, for unmerchantable 28.6, making an aggregate value of $508,713,129, which is $40,000,000 less than the December valuation of the crop and
averages 41.9 ner bushel.
The estimated amount of wheat in farmers’ hands is 75,000,000 bushels, or 16.8 per cent of the last crop and 59,000,000 bushels less than last March. The explanation for this in large measure is to be found in the fact that large quantities have been fed to hogs and other stock. Returns from North and South Dakota, Nebraska and Kansas indicate unprecedented exhaustion of last year’s crop, correspondents in many counties reporting not enough on hand for spring seed and necessary food sup-

Washington, March 12.—Judge Miller, in the police court of the District of Columbia, has decided an important point of international law in the case of Manuel de Almagro, charged with embezzlementof $8,000 from the Argentine minister, resident in this city. The attorneys for de Almagro put in a plea that he was a part of the Argentine legation, being translator and secretary to the minister, and as such was not subject to criminal or other jurisdiction of the United States. After discussing the subject in all its bearings Judge Miller held that the statutes cover the case of de Almagro, and he ordered him discharged and the case against him dismissed.

Washington, March 12.—Cablegrams received at the navy department announce the arrival of the Alert at Panama from San Jose and the Raleigh at Colon from Trinidad.

At Colon there are the Atlanta and Raleigh; at Buena Ventura, on the west coast is the Ranger, and at Panama on the same side is the Alert. It is probable that the Atlanta will

He said: “Kolb has been twice elected governor, bnt although the Alabama legislature refused to allow him a contest law and has deprived him of his seat, he is greater than governor, in the knowledge that he has led a movement in Alabama which is slowly, steadily and surely destroying a corrupt government. He could cause revolution now and get followers to march on the capitol, but we xvill let congress march on Oates and his ballotbox stuffers, and we want public sentiment and outraged justice to rise and bury him and his cohorts. The opposition to us are the anarchists. We are the conservators of peace, and the party attempting to uphold justice. The executive committee will do nothing radi-
cal or revolutionary.”

Indianap -ub, March 12.—Yesterday's session, the dying gasp of the legislature, was devoted partly to the adoption ol resolutions and partly to horse play.

Logansport, Ind., March 12.—Albert Tucker, for years looked upon as one of the wealthiest farmers in northern Indiana, has been overcome with many afflictions.

It had been noised alxmt that the governor would return the bill ousting Custodian Griffin of the statehouse, which had been delivered to him at 11:54 Thursday night, at 11:54 last night. Thus it would be next to impossible to pass the measure through both houses over his
