Ottawa, Out., June 23. Jii't
before the senate adjourned last
night, a message was received
from the governor-general, trans
mitting further papers relating to
the extension and development of
trade between the United States
and Canada, including Newfound'
lpnd. The corrctp jndence con
sidts of dispatches which parsed
betwien Lord bali.-burv, the Isrit-
ish minister in Washington, and
Ixird Knutsford, a'tsr the negotia
tions had ben going for some time
ami of the proposed conventtou
between Newfoundland aid the
L'nitrd States, which had been
previously communicated by
t'auncefote to Blaine for an ar
rangement ol the fisheries ques
tion and trade regulations, trans
mitted to the Canadian governor,
General Stanley. The next
lispatch is Loid Stanley's cable
message to Knutstord, in winch
tie remonstrates in the strongest
terms against the proposed con
vention at Washington, as it
would place fish and other
products of Canada at a disadvan
tage in the United States. K nuts-
ford then, in a dispatch to the
overnor-general, says in the
present urgi-nt condition of New
foundland, an unfortunate feeling
would lm excited hv the opposition i
of Canad i to the elforts of New
foundland to relieve its diuties-
and any reciprocity treaty between
Canada and the United States
would, as previously, be framed so
as not to ulace imports from this
country at a disadvantage, and it
is presumed Canada would wish
to retain control over her tariff,
with a view to the possible exten
sion of her trade with the colonies
and F.ngland. In the next dis'
when Dave adjourned for dinner
he said be hadn't been so hungry
in a dog's age.
Dave took an hour's nooning
and then started in again. Farmer
Grorfkeptan eye on him. and a
little after 4 o'clock he saw a tlock
of crows sail out of a piece of woods
and alight on the corn field fences
They looked at Dave a spell and
then the wh le flock a lose in
body and settled down around
him. Pretty loin three of them
Hew up and perched on Dave's
head en 1 thoukleis, and when
they had sat there for a minute or
so Dave reached up an I caught
one of them by the legs. All the
other crow s flew a way in a hurry
when the' saw their companion
flti'tering and squalling in the
scarecrew's hand, and Dave, who
said lie never been so tired in his
life, marched to the house with
the noisv'bird and took a swig of
the bet he h.id won. New York

crow ana Wins a Bet.
Fanner AlansonT. Groffof For
est l.aka towneship, Pa., placed an
etligy ot himself iu his c irn field
the other dav, and before sundow n
three crows alighted on the scare'
crow's hat and sat there for several
minutes. Dave Iloleomb, who
woiks for farmer Urolf, thinks
there is nothing so cunning on
earth as a ciow, and the sight of
the three black rascals on top
of his employer s old hat tickled
Dave- iintnensley. The boldness
of the crows displeased the former
and he took Dave to task for being
ticKled about it. Dave retorted by
declaring that Mr. Groff might as
well stick a feather in the ground
and expect to keep the crows out of
the cornfield with it as to set his
own image up out there, and the
discussion became so hot that Dave
finally offered to bet the former a
gallon of whisky that he could
tix himself up and stand where
the scarecrow was until at least
two crows came and alighted on
his hat,
Farmer Groff snapped up the bet
at once, ami the next morning
Dave donned his best suit of
clothes and took tho scarecrow's
place in the cornfield. The image
was taken to the barn, and Dave
pulled an old slouch hat over his
eyes, stuck his hands in his pocket's
braced his hack against a post
and waited for the crows to come
around and make themselves
familiar with him. It was a holi-
lay for the farmer, and while
Dave was posing be sat on his
porch, watched Dave every minute
and scanned the sky for crows.
Not a crow- came near the corn
field during the forenoon, and
Portland, June 2:5. "Mer
chants iu San Fraucisco," says W.
H. Darling, the Hour dealer, w ho
has just returned from California,
"are somewhat alarmed over the
scarcity of wheat there. Very
little is being done in the market.
They had been shipping right along
until lately.
Of coarse, thev knew of the
scarcity of wheat throughout the
country and thn consequent high
prices : but they thought that Cali
fornia had a much larger amount
than it was afterwards found to
contain.
When the w heat statement of
'.he Call Board Association was
i ued on June 1, it showed that
here were 1SO0 tons of wheat in
-an Francisco, 23,000 at Port
Costa, and 13,000 tons at Stockton.
This was a remarkable showing,
f hey had no idea that such a scar
city existed. There was not 4:),
000 tons or L30O.00O bushels of
wheat in the whole of California.
"Five months before, on Janu
ary 1, there was 194,000 tons, or
about 6,300,000 lushels, and on
May 1 there was 2,700,000 bushels
in the state. On June 1, 18'.I0. there
was 2 300,000 bushels in Calif .rnia
These facts, coming from the best
authority, had to be excepted."
"Is anything going on in their
wheat market?"
"No, nothing to speak of is mov
ing. Just as soon as this report was
issued every one began to hold his
wheat, and no more was sold. A
great many of the speculators are
short, and will find it hard to
