In many districts It has been the wettest season ever known and grain has leen iVstroyed by both rain and hall. Much of the grain was not worth the expense of binding. Wheat received at Odessa Is of very Inferior quality. Report predict, that little wheat will ! exported from Russia during the season of 1SS7-:S. as there Is little avail able for the purpose, old stocks being practically exhausted nnd the new crop little more than sufficient for the home demand.

ALL KINDS OF CHOI'S RUINED So ."leisures Tet Adopted By lit Covers neat To Cope With Toe Sitntioi. New York, September 7. A dispatch to t,he World from London says: The World's special inquiries throughout Ireland fully corroborate th. alarming predictions cabled Saturday of th. fail ure of the harvest and a consequent Im pending famine. Cries of warning to the government are rising ln a crescendo scale from all parts of Ireland. Th.y are not confined as ln former yean of distress, to the congested districts on the western seaboard. From Mulllnger, cne of the most prosperous parts of th. midlands, a correspondent telegraphs: "The crops are now Irretrievably de stroyed. It will be impossible, for the farmers to make anything oi their cer eals this year, as they are quickly rot ting. In the churches a prayer for fine weather was recited and If a change' does not come Immediately the crop might as well be left to manure the ground. From county Wexford, noted as one of the richest ln the country, the tidings are: "The green crop may be described as a gigantic failure In county Wexford this year. The greater part of tho po tato crop is only fit for cattle feeding." From Fermanagh, a corresponilent telegraphs: "At a meeting held here to r.sk for a reduction ln rents, the parish priest presiding, he declared that not since Black 1S17 has the prospects for farmers in this district been so bad. In several places the potatoes have been a failure. Hundreds of tons of hay have been ruined by the heavy rains and floods." From Carlow, known as "the model county," comes the following dispatch: "There is before our farmers an outlook as disastrous as It Is possible to conceive, owing to the frightful weather. A great deal of com cut early remains ln the stacks injured, beyond repair. In many districts the farmers have been unable to cut their crops which present the sad dening spectacle of being leveled to the earth by the persistent rains, over which a mass of second growth anil weeds has come. Apprehensions concerning pota toes also have been dismally realized." These evidences of the widespread character of the ruin wrought by the Inclement weather are merely samples from numerous reports received. The Irish government has adopted no measure as yet to cope with the threatened famine. NEW STEAMER LINE. San Diego, September 7.
