Nov. lO.-The November returns to the Department of Agriculture of the rate of yield per acre make the average of corn 19.7, which Is about 1H bushel above the yield Indicated by the condition figures in October. This Is the lowest rate of yield that has occurred since 18SI, when U stood at 18.6 bushels per acre. Last year the yield was 22.5 bushels upon a much larger harvested acreage. The rates for the years 1556, 1SS7 and lsSo. which were years of comparatively low yield, were respectively 22, 20.1 ana 20.7 bushels. The yield for the present year, which must be regarded as a preliminary and not a final estimate, is less than the average for the ten years, 1870 to 1879, by 7.4 bushels, less than the average for the succeeding decade. 18S0 to 1SS3, by 4.4 bushels and less than the average for the four years, 1800 to 1833, by 8.7 buhel3; quality, 70.4. The result Is In harmony with reported Indications during the growing season. The rates of yield of the principal corn States are as follows: New York, 28.2; Pennsylvania, 32; Ohio. 26.3; Michigan, 23.2; Indiana, 23.9; Illinois, 28.8; Iowa, 15; Mississippi, 22; Kansas, 11.2; Nebraska. 6.0. . The average yield of buckwheat Is 16.1 bushels per acre. The average yield in 1893 was 14.7 and In 1892, 14.1. The average quality Is JK.3, 1C0 being tne standard. The average yield per acre of potatoes Is returned as 62. In 1W2 the yield was 1.32, and 1892. 1.17 tons. The quality 13 high, as shown by the percentage of M.S. The crop of apples is reported as 41.7 per cent, of an average product. The returns relative to me feeding of wheat to stock are not sufficient to justify a report at this date, 'ine department hopes to be able to make a special report on this subject in the near future.

JIIL CLEVELAND DETERMINED OX ANOTHER ISSUE OF DO.DS. He Seen No Other "Vny of Recouping tlie Treasury for the Louses Cauaed by the New Tariff Lmr. RECEIPTS GROWING LESS AND HEAVY WITHDRAWALS' OI" GOLD EXPECTED IN THE SPRING. Carlisle Reported a a Differing- Tilth the President Patronasrc That Will Go to Republicans. WASHINGTON. Nov. 10. Ther are strong Indications that another lisue of bonds will be made during the coming week. For some time past the conviction has been growing upon the Fresldent that an issue of another $CO,000,OCO would soon be necessary, and on his return from Fluzzard's Cay he expressed to the members of hi3 Cabinet his belief that the Issue could not be long delayed, and that the sooner it was made the better. He saw the treasury receipts constantly growing: les with no immediate prospect of any favorable change. Already the gold reserve has reached a point of $4,000,000 below the lowest point touched previous to the last Issue, with the probabilities strongly in favor of still further and larger withdrawals for export aa soon as the usual spring outflow sets In. For th la,st several years the spring withdrawals for export have ranged in amount from $20,000,000 to $30,000,000, and even more, and it was not good business Judgment, in the opinion of the President, to wait tintll the gold reserve was In fact wiped out before measures should be taken to replenish Lit, Secretary Carlisle, It Is understood, took a. more noperui view or tne situation. lie argued that the receipts from internal revenue and customs must of necessity soon show a marked increase. The supply of whisky which was withdrawn from bond Just prior to the passage of the new tariff act, to avoid the payment of the additional 20 cents per gallon, would very soon be exhausted and the demands of trade would result In largely Increased revenues from this source, and what was true of the internal revenue was equally true of the customs. Just before the tariff act went into operation the withdrawal from bond of goods of every character was abnormally large. This supply had now been exhausted or nearly so, and It was ths confident expectation of the Secretary tb it the present steady revival of trade would soon remove, any nocesalty for another issue of bonds. Tip to this time there had been no slgn3 of any Important withdrawals of gold for export, and it was his opinion that the emergency might be passed successfully without increasing the public debt. He argued, too, that his experiences In placing f tho last Issue taught him that tha Issue of another 550,000.000 roigtit fall far short of recouping the gold reserve by that amount It wa3 cn easy matter to deposit lal tenders at the sub-treasuries and demand gold "with w'aich to pay for the bonds. ..This evasion of the spirit of the law authorizing the issue Vf the bonds was several times detected during the settlements for the last Issue, and he feared it might be rrac:Iced HgJln. The President, however, after concIdcriLs: all these things, preferred not lo win until Congress reassembled In December, when measures might ba taken to obstruct the Issue. In his opinion, th2 sit'iitlon derr anded the issue, and there chniM 02 no unnecessary delay in 'he nav.T. At the request of the President Secretary Carlisle Joined him sit WooJley this af teuton, and at a late hour had not returned 10 the city. Tersons In a rosttlon to know believe that this' Issue will !.e ofTlrlally announced before the close of ths co.n'ng week. The cash balance in the treasury to-day was $104,7G0,4SS; gold reserve. $51,915,101. The receipts from all sources so far this month amount to $3,640,115, making the total receipts since July 1 lart. $123.C27,523. The disbursements during the ten days of the present month amount to $11,727,000, and since July 1 to $123.04o,233. leaving a deficit of $3,087,783 during the last ten days, and $19,440,741 since July 1 last, as compared with Feb. 1. 1S94. when the last bond issue was made. There is an increase in 'the casn balance of over $20,500,000. The geld reserve has, however, decreased about $1,000,000. SrOILS FOR VICTOUS. ratronuire That Will Go to Ilepubltcnnn of the Ilouwe.

Little Dullness Will Tie Transacted The "Frfc" H1U. WASHINGTON. Nov. lO.-The approaching seslon of Congress, which will convene on the 6.h of December, is not expected by those familiar with congreslonal methods to be one of great activity or productive of much legislation. The fact that It will continue for only three months; that it will be the last session of the Congress and that It so closely follows a general election are all considered as indications that but comparatively little real work will be attempted and still less accomplished. The greater part of the session will, in all probability, be consumed in an exchange of chaffing over the results of election and the session will be memorable more on account of talk than work. It Is probable that next to nothing will be done before the Christmas holidays and predictions aret freely made that it will be difacuit to maintain or obtain a quorum previous to Christmas. After the holidays there will be but two months left for work and speech making. It will, of coursi, bf necessary to pass the usual apprcprlatioa bills. These bills touch a variety of interests and while, upon occasion, they can be disposed of with considerable celerity, they can always be so manipulated as to kill much time when there is any considerable element which desires to bo use them. When the last session adjourned the measures attracting most attention were the supplemental tariff or free raw material bills. They had passed the House and had been favorably reported, with material amendments, by the Senate committee on finance, to the Senate. While a majority of. the Democratic Senators appeared friendly to those bills there was a considerable element In that party opposed to their consideration, as were practice lly all th Kepublican Senators. This element was able to prevent the Senate taking up the bills previous to adjournment. It remains to be seen whether the friends of the bills will persist in this policy at the forthcoming session and whetner if they do manifest this disposition they will succeed In, the face of opposition of a few Democrats and the almost solid Republican side of the Senate, wriich does not desire at this time "iurther legislation in the direction of tariff reduction. Representatives of the latter class do not hesitate to declare that whatever the policy of the Democratic majority they will be able to prevent serious consideration of these bills because of the short session. They also claim if a vote on themehould te reached there will be a majority against them. It should be stated, however, that there is a division of opinion among the opponents of the free augar bill and th?.t some Republicans and some conservative Democrats have exEresed a willingness to allow this bill to ecome a law; bui the best indications are that the fate of the bill will be d. termlned by that of the other of the same class. There are also those who predict thero will be a renewal or the agitation of the financial question on propositions looking to the free coinage of sliver and for another bond issue. The starting of the bond question would depend upon the administration and there appears now no reason for the sugestlon that it will be revived except in the imaginations of those who would orpose the measure if it should be brought In. There is little doubt that the silver question will be raised in some formbut the probabilities are tnat there will be no serious united effort on the part of any considerable element to push silver to the front. The more general opinion is that silver will be reserved for the long session of Congress so as to make it an issue In the presidential campaign of 1S36. BRAZIL'S CELERUATIO.V. Fetes In Honor of the Inauguration of a Xetv President. WASHINGTON, Nov. lO.-Mlnlsrter Mendnca, of Brazil, has received the official programme of the fetes and festivals which begin to-lay throughout Brazil in honor of the Inauguration of a new President on Thursday next. The occasion is much like the quadrennial inauguration of a President of the United States, except that the festivities extend over five days and conclude with the formal swearing in of the new chief executive. In view of reports of riot and revolution in Brazil Senor Mendonca gives an interesting outline of tha ceremonies, as showing the tranquillity of the country and its interest in republican Institutions. The present inauguration has special significance, as it is the first induction of a President elected by the people since Brazil put aside monarchy and became a republic. The first President after Doro Tedro's abdication was chosen by Congress, and on his death the Vice President, Pelxoto. succeeded to the presidency and has administered the off.ee up to this time. There have been critics of Uracil's departure from monarchy to republicanism who have prophesied that she will follow tha course of the other southern republics in perpetuating the Presidents. But this has not been realized. On the contrary, an election was held last March at a time when Brazil was convulsed with the revolution led by Admirals Da Gama and De Melio. The candidate of the republican party was Senator Moreas. who was elected with little opposition. Moreas is a type of the new republicanism of Brazil, as he was president of the constitutional convention which gave the republic its Constitution. The inauguration ceremony began at Rio de Janeiro to-day with a grand military review and the reception of special envoys from Uruguay and Argentine. The Uruguayan official bring medals and decoi .lions to be conferred in consequence of the war with Paraguay. During the remaining days the city is to be given over to military and naval reviews, processions, etc. Elaborate preparations have been made and tht Brazilian capital is in gala attire, similar to the appearance of Washington on lnaug, uration day. The Brazilian Congress has granted ample appropriations for the event. Speaking of the reported movement to prevent the inauguration of Moreas and proclaim Pelxoto dictator. Minister Mendonc says it is entirely unwarranted, as the celebration beginning to-day Indicates President Pelxoto will continue to hold his position as a general of the army. Senor Mendonca S3ys the rebellious element in southern Brazil has recently been counseled by its leader to abandon the fruitless struggle. In any event, the Minister says, the rebellion is of small consequence, the strength and resources of IJrazll being loyally given to the constitutional and republican government.
