AN INTERESTING REPORT. Tto* Shortage to the Austria-Hungary Wheat Crop—To be a Purchaser lu Puture. Thus Keiuovius Another Couipepit« of the lotted States la the World's Uraia Marts — The Hour Trade with Brasil. ^0T* 1.—Secretary WilBon of the department C5 PJfriculture Iras just issued a report prepaid u“~ der his direction by Frank H. Hitch- j cock, chief of the section of foreign | markets^ that gives some interesting facts relative to the present w shortage in Austria-Huugary had the consequent importation into that country of American grain. According to the United States consul at Keicheuberg, an Importation of 400 carloads of American wheat was made as early as August, coming bv the way of Hamburg. Other importations were reported last night, among them oG,700 bushels of red winter Ko. 2 and Kansas wheat, purchased through the Yieuua produce exchange. After recounting these unusual importations of the preseut seasou the bulletiu presents a careful review of the grain situation iu Austria-Hungary during the past ten years. The crop of the preseut seasou is remarkably small. If the official estimates quoted are fulfilled the eombiued reduction of Austria and Hungary, will amount to little more thau ISO.oOO.QOQ bushels, or 00.000.000 bushels short of the crop harvested iu lsOO. lu respect to other eereals the status of the empire is apparently that of transition from an exporting into an importing eouutry. While it is hardly to be expected that these changed conditions will to any considerable extent create an enlarged demand for Amerieuu cereals, the facts sot forth are certainly of iu to rest as indicating the lessened importance of AustriaHungary among the countries with which the United States is obliged to compete iu the world's gram marts. The Hour trade with Brazil is large and increasing, reaching till).984 barrels per annum during IS) 1-95. This increasing hold-up on the market should be controlled very exclusively by the United States millers. . BLANCO HAS ARRIVED. The New C tpta'nt-Ueucral New iu Com initml iu Cuba. M .yprio, Oot.

They Have More Intrinsic Value than tbs lieuulue. St. Loris. Oct. SI.—Counterfeit silver dollars of greater weight and fineness than those turned out from Uncle Sam's mints are the latest iu the coniacker’s art. and St. Louis is the first city to suffer from them. A counterfeit that defies the scrutiny of St. Louis bank tellers and cashiers seems almost an impossibility. For the last week these public servants have been accepting the counterfeits in question without hesitation. It was only when they reached the St. Louis subtreasury that their spurious character was detected. The first .turned up then.- October 23. United States Treasurer Small sent it to the director of the mint for assay. He has just received a reply, in which the statement is made that, although the assay had not been completed, there was no doubt that then* was more pure silver iu the counterfeit than in a genuine eoiu. and that its fineness exceeded that of the genuine. IDEAL CONDITIONS. Nebraska Highly Favored In Her Fail Wheat Sow lug. Lincoln, Neb.. Oct.

The amount sown in some localities is “33 per cent. greater than last year. and will average 13 per cent greater for the state at large. The ground is in excellent condition. During the month the rainfall has been all that could be desired. The rains were of the steady kind that soak into the ground. The precipitatioo for three weeks amounted to between four and five iuches. Ideal conditions prevail everywhere, and in western Nebraska the seeding is not yet finished. Considerable acreage will yet be sown. Farmers are jubilant over the condition of the growing grain and the prospects for next year's crop. HAYS INDICTED.
