MARRIAGE ON THE DECREASE. fltlll There Were Nearly 40,000 Wed dlnue In London Last Year. A volume prepared by Dr. Shirley F. Murphy, medical officer of health for the administrative county of London, gives a timely reminder of the gigantic nature of tho tank which has to be dis charged by the county council and the vestries In maintaining tho health ol tho Inhabitants' of the metropolis. The M)pulntton of London Is approaching 4,rssi,(HHi, and for purposes of sanitary supervision tho area Is divided Into fur ty-three districts, each having Its med ical ottlcer of health. Sanitation and iimlleal selenc are grappling success fully with disease, ond the Illustrative diagrams by means of which Ir. Mur phy reduces numerous bewildering bat talions of statistics to a striking com prehensive Impression of that contest tell ou tho whole a fairly satisfactory story. Marriages aro certainly found to bo declining when wo take a long survey, even If wo aro not ablo to sny that the diminution Is all under the head of Im irrovldeut unions. Tho mnrrlages dur ing tho forty-flvo years from 1831 to 1W.HJ show a mean rate of 18.0 per 1,000. Hut from 1S51 to 1S70 tho mnrrlnge rote each year was above that mean. There, was Indeed a brief period It covered tho '(10s when mnrrylug In Loudon burst forth with exceptional fervor, but tho abnormal effort seems to have bad the consequence of all abnormal ef forts In a remurknblo reaction, and since then making a "nuptial of two hearts" boa gone Bteadlly downward, though, we may add, to reassure tho timorous, that In actual figures the diminution on the quarter of a century Is from 10.5 to 1S.0 per 1,000. Last year SVWJ marriages wero made In Lon don, and the number la probably ample. The birth rate too Is on the down grade, the turn In this department be ginning about 18f3, and continuing un til now. Lost year births were most numerous In tho combined eastern dis tricts and lowest In the western, and we notice, furthermore, that, although the fewest children were born In the western purt of London, more Infants died there than In any other group of districts. The full In the Loudon birth rate eorroioDds strangely with a fall over the whole of England and Wale.

Hopkins 4 Co Ine., B.r.I ol Tr.e ir..k. r., 711 in 714 Chamber ol Lominiive building, I'ortlend, Oregon The statistical news of wheat for the ratt week has been very bearich. Ueorbohm rcportod tho world's ship menst at 14,000,000 bushels, of which North America shipped 8,248,000 busehls. The American supply of ris ible wheat increased during the week I, 083,000 boshela, and now totals 22, 87,000 bushels. Tho Orange Judd Funnel report foi June makes the win ter wheat acreage 25,051,000 acres, after allowing for 1.000,000 acres aban doned In California. The sprin wheat acreage shows a radical increaso every where, the total area reaching 17,808,. 000 acors. Tho month of May was fav orable for wheat everywhere'except in California, and the present condition of winter wheat is reported at 90.7, against 87.9 Inst month and 83.5 last year. Tlio condition of spring wheat is practically perfect, with an aveago of 99.1, which is the bighset flguro ever rejHirted on June 1 by any reliable an. tliority. The situation in Oregon and Wellington is enough better than lust year to practically offeut the Ws in California, lleurish acntimnot seems to be gaining both hero and abroad. A private LiverixMil cahlo says: The trade is bearish and lower prices must follow. Upward manipulation is out of the question, with world's ship ments so largo and American prospect is flattering." Minneapolis reported no buyers of c.ihIi wheat in that mar ket today. About tho only strong fac tor bus been tho New York maiket, where foreigners aro asid to have bought largo quantities for September and later deliveries. That market has been well sustained, und the foreign support thus given encouraged a belief that pi ices may do better here, at least teiiiorarily. Senltle Mnrkete.
