The Y ield is Extraordinary Potatoes Much Damaged by Rot. Toronto, Not. 21. The report of the bureau of industries shows the yield of grain in Ontario this year as extraordinarily large. Wheat and oats are far above the average. The crops of wheat, spring and fall, are es-timated at 32,584,026 bushels, nearly, half as much again as '1890. The oat crop exceeds that of last year by more than 22.000,000 bushels, while the average per acre is the highest in ten years. The root crops is en-ormous but potatoes are much damaged by rot. The acreage of barley sown is 143,000 less than last year, yet the crop is 541, T37 bushels larger owing to the great yield. The acreage sown in fall wheat this fall is 15 per cent greater than that sown in 1800 but the prospects for the yield are hardly as good as last year. A BLOCKADE BROKEN. THE BULLION ACCUMULATED AT.TAM-PIC- O IS NOW MOVING. It all Amounted to 2240 Bars The Delay Caused by the Kefusal of the Smelters to Pay the Govern-ment Charge of Assaying. Xew Orleans, Nov. 21. A Tampieo, Mexico, special says: "The bullion blockade which has been in effect here for the past month, is broken, and the 22,400 bars of silver accumulated here are being exported as rapidly as transportation facilities will permit. This delay in bullion shipments was caused by the Monterey smelters re-fusing to pay the government charges of $3 made for assaying every bar reported. The assay charges have now been reduced to $2 for every 135 marks. This result is not en-tirely satisfactory to the 6melters, but they must accept it for the present." m THE WHEAT UKASE. THE EXPORT OF THAT CEREAL FROM RUSSIA IS PROHIBITED. It Will Go Into Effect Monday An Eng- lish Tenants' Sights Bill The Emi-gration Conference Other News From Foreign Lands. St. Petersburg, Nov. 2L The Russian ukase prohibiting the export of wheat was issued today, to take effect Monday. Contrary to the announcement made a few days ago that nothing further would be done in connection with the question of exporting wheat from Russia until the czar's return from Livadia early in December, the ukase from his majesty was issued today prohibit-ing export wheat and wheat products from Russia. The prohibition, which will go into effect Monday next, will be executed under the same conditions of those governing the pro-hibition recently decreed against the export of oats.

At the Episcopal concrcss yesterday Rev.

A POOR MAIL SERVICE. The Political Excitement in Guatemala is Increasing. City of Mexico, Nov. 21. There is great complaint here of bad service in regard to the mails from the United States and the de-lay attending their distribution. Letters are also frequently lost. Telegrams recently received from Guate-mala say the political excitement is increas-ing there, and that no day passes that Presi-dent Barillas does not find a note threatening him with death.

' THE GREAT FOOTBALL GAME. The Struggle Now On with the Advantage "With Yale. Springfield, Mass., Nov. 21. This city is owned today by the wearers of the blue and crimson. The hotels and streets have been crowded since morning and the early and late trains have added thousands to the throngs. The weather for the game is per-fect, cool and cloudy with a little wind. The betting last evening was nearly even, but today odds are given on Yale. Most of the Harvard men arrived last night at 11:45 The Yale delegation came at noon by two special trains. Most of the city stores are decorated impartially. All the New England colleges were represented, Amherst and Williams sending large delegations on snecial trains. At 11 a.m. the Tale'men were offering $100 to $60, which the Harvard backers accepted. At 10:30 several hundred persons were wait-ing at the gates of Hampden park to open, and at 11 when the gates swung back a steady stream s'et in from away down Main street. This tide of would-b- e spectators was two miles long, though the game was not to begin for three hours. Fourteen separate entrances presented a rush and the work of placing the vast throng and seating those entitled to seats went on with little friction. One hundred and sixty uniformed officers are on hand to preserve order. 2 p. m. Harvard was the first in the field. Yale followed shortly after. Harvard won the toss and took the north end. Tale gained ten yards on the wedge and McClurg gained thirty yards in the run around the end. The ball was within a yard of the Harvard's goal line in three minutes, and a touch down was made by McClurg. Yale missed the goal. Score. 4 to 0 in favor of Yale. The ball was then returned to the center, and on a spurt by Watford carried into .Yale's territory, but the New Haven men were playing a powerful game, and yard by yard they forced the ball back until it was at Harvard's thirty yard line. Wafford then again got the ball and again punted it back to the Yale thirty yard line, where Yale gained possession of the ball. McCormick then punted for Y"ale, but little was gained, and Harvard got the ball. Her men - then- formed a wedge and gained five yards. Yale had the ball at Harvard twenty-fiv- e yard line, but lost it, and Trafford punted to the center. The play was chiefly in Harvard's territory. Yale gained ten yards in break through Harvard's line, and McClung gained the twenty yards on a run around the end. Trafford again tried to punt and sent the ball to Yale's forty yard line, where it fell into McClung's hands and he started to run for Harvards territory and before he could be stopped he had gone 40 yards and had the ball at Harvards 35 yard line. Here Yale lost the ball but Harvard failed to gain any advantage At the end of the lirst half the ball was near the center of the field in Yale's terri-tory. Score: Yale 4, Harvard 0. AN ENGLISH TENANT'S RIGHTS BILL. Incorporated in the Platform Adopted by the British Liberals. London, Nov. 21. The liberal leaders have decided to incorporate in the platform ap-proved at the Newcastle conference an Eng-lish tenants' rights bill. This decision is one of the most important steps that the chiefs of the party have ever taken. The questions of ameliorating tha position of the British farmers has long been recognized as ripen-ing toward liberal legislation. Thisj resolution is hastened by the move-ment pf the conservatives in the same direc-tion the great liberal victory at South-Moultd- n. The history of the conservative party presents no change more surprising than that which has occurred on the English land question under alarm of what would happen to the landlord's interests through the uprising of the laborers and farmers under the liberal banners. The tenor of oninion fif fhft leflHinrr rnn. servatives at the Carlton club, was that the laborers must have power to acquire small plots Of land cheaply and through a simple method, and that the state must also assist the frmers to become owners after a cer-tain umber of years without paying more than the customary rents. This has been communicated to Lord Salisbury with an additional appeal from the party agents to the effect that if English land legislation prece&r everything else at the next session, and a "measure be presented acceptable to the agricultural interests, a triumph instead of a disaster will be the result of the govern-ment'! t appeal to the country, SILVER TRIUMPHANT ONLY EIGHT VOTES ACA1NST IT, OUT OF A TOTAL OF 489. Helena Chosen as the Place for the ext Convention The AVildest Enthu-siasm Over the White Metal The Speeches. Denver, Nov. 21. At the mining con-gress yesterday Senator Stewart announced that he did not own a share of Conistock stock, thus refuting the old allegation. Judge Harley Morse of Colorado spoke for twenty minutes in favor of free coinage. Martin Maginnis of Montana denouiced Campbell in a scathing manner for his cow-ardice in not advocating the platform upon which he was nominated. Congressman G. A. Cassidy of Nevada de-clared that every man, woman and child in Nevada united in favor of free and unlimited coinage. Cassidy advocated the forcing of the political parties to make that question the dominant issue in the next campaign. In the afternoon T. C. Howell made a speech, placing his state on record as in favor of free and unlimited coinage of silver. General Doniphan of Missouri and Dennis Sheedy of Colorado also spoke eloquently in favor of free coinage. Judge Goodwin of Utah made an address, in the course of which he said that he did not believe the lower house of congress would pass a free coinage bill this winter, unless with the hope of the president vetoing it. He moved that a resolution for the free coinage of silver be passed by acclamation. Albert Little of Maine made a brief speech saying that he had become convinced from what tie had heard in this congress, that free and unlimited coinage of silver was right. The Connecticut delegates objected to the passage of the resolution by acclamation, and the roll of states was called, with the following results: For the free and unlimi-ted coinage of silver, 481; against, 8. When Connecticut was reached, great en-thusiasm was manifested by the delegation from that state announcing their vote in favor of the resolution, and when the vote of Canada and Russia was announced in favor of the resolution there was another scene of confusion. "When the total vote was declared the delegates went wild, and it was some time before order was restored. A resolution was passed asking congress to enact a law protecting the agriculturists, encouraging and rehabilitating hydraulic mining and preventing the damining of nav-igable streams; also to protect the forests of the mountains and encourage the cultivation of trees. A resolution was unanimously adopted congratulating the management of the World's Columbian exposition for the work already done aud urging every state and territory represented in the convention to prepare for and make exhibits commensurate with the importance of the exposition and of the developed and undeveloped mining re-sources of the state. It was decided that the next convention shall be held at Helena and the convention adjourned. BRAZIL AND CHILE. REVOLUTIONISTS IN DO SUL THREATEN TO MARCH ON RIO. Uruguay Will be Asked to Keeoj;nie the Insurgents Montt Formally Klected President of ChileAwfnl Brutality of the Troops of the Junta. New York, Nov. 21. The JIcrahTs Val-paraiso correspondent says the insurgent committee at Porto Allegro has sent circu-lars to all garrisons, commanders, etc., throughout Brazil, asking them to join the movement against Fonseca. The 6quadron in the upper Uraguay river is said to have gone over to the insurgents. De Brazil is said to be on the way to Montevideo to ask the goverement of Uruguay to recognize the insurgents' belligerency. The rebels are said to be receiving a large number of rifles, swords and pistols. BrExos Atres, Nov. 21. Advices received from the disturbed Brazilian state of Rio Grande tell of the difficulty the insurgents experience in securing suflicient arms. The dispatch announces that General Ossorin, who commands the insurgent forces in Rio Grande, has issued a manifesto, in which he threatens to march on Rio Janeiro. London, Nov. 21. Today's advices from Rio Grande do Sul, by way of Santiago, add very little to what is already known. It is again asserted that the man whose influence is greatest at the present juncture is Caspar Silveira Martins, at one time governor of the Erovinces, who was exiled at the times of dethronement, and afterward permitted to return. It is be-lieved that his views as to what is the best policy for the state to pursue will prevail. Martins is admitted by all par-ties to be both able and energetic, lie is in favor of a republican form of government, while personally very friendly to Dom Pe-dro. An official dispatch from Rio de Janerio this afternoon says the government of Jie dictator is continuing active measures to is termed the anarchical movement in the state of Rio Grande do 6ul. It is pro. posed to establish a close blockade at the ports of Rio Grande, and so attempt to cut the state off from communication with the outside world. At the same time it is said the government will use moderation in its treatment of the seceded state. The official dispatch says nothing about Fonseca' s re-ported illness, or the possibility of plots to make away with him. ENGLAND FOLLOWING OUR LEAD. f. . And jCTill Adopt Emigration Measures I Similar to Those of the V. S. London, Nov. 21. The British govern-ment will send a delegation to the inter-natior- kl .conference on emigration, which opens kt Paris on Wednesday next. Major Brack dtt, special foreign agent of the United States! will attend. Secretary Foster's in-structions to Major Brackett, in defining the positiii of the American government, state in subjtancc that the government and people of thejUnited States are not adverse to the immigration of meritorious, persons, but public opinion and the law of the coin try are crystallizing definitely in op-position to further immigration of persons belonff ng to helpless, defective and criminal classcl He suergests that some method of effeettei inspection of emigrants is iy proper measure will receive the bLa.yf"riXper&tiou of the Ul? - States. English trido councils have taken up a defi-nite position on the necessity of regulating the immii-fatio- n of aliens. The committee also favors, a bill on the lines of the United States .abor contract laws. A French Free Trader's Talk. Paris Nov. 21. In the debate in the sen-ate on the tariff, Jules Simon said he was convirjf ed that the adoption of the tariff, by isolating France commercially, would ulti-mately result in free trade. It was a grav r error, te said, to suppose that work and wanes Tould increase under the proposed system. The home market was limited, and manifeitly the field of exportation would reprisals, as retaliation would be encountered on all sides. The British Arbitrator. Ottawa, Nov. 21. It is learned from a well informed quarter that either the em-peror of Germony or the president of the Swiss republic will be asked by the British government to represent Great Britain in the arbitration committee to be appointed to settle the Behring sea question. A National Live Stock Association. Chicago, Nov. 21. The National Live Stock association was formally organized here last night. It is intended to be the highest body in all matters pertaining to live stock in America, regularly authorized. There were present from nearly all associa-tions fully five hundred millions of capital represented. T. W. Harvey of Illinois, rep-resenting the Aberdeen Angus association, was made president. Dr. Salmon, chief of the department of animal industry in the agricultural bureau, addressed the meeting, expressing satisfaction at the formation of the organization, which, he said, had a wide field of usefulness. A Papal Appointment. Rome, Nov. 21. The pope has appointed the bishop of Chicontimi, of the province of Quebec, Canada, to be of the archbishops of Quebec, with the right of succession to the orchbishopric. The vicar general of Quebec it is expected, will suc-ceed to the bishopric Chicontimi. The Latest News From Chile. London, not. 21. The Santiago corre-spondent of the Time says that with the ex-ception of the formal scrutiny by congress Admiral Montt was yesterday uuanimously elected president of Chile. New Iokk, Nov. 21. The lieralifn Valpar-aiso cable says: Procurator Fiscal has filed suits against Senator Eneuna. a late mem-ber of Balmaceda's congress, for $45,000,000, the amount of notes issued by that body, and declared illegal by the new government. Similar suits will extend against all the mem-bers of Balmaceda's congress. San Francisco, Nov. 21. One of the offi-cers of the cruiser San Francisco, givinsr an account today of the last battles of the Chil-ean war, says that Balmaceda's commander displayed poor generalship at Coueon and Vina del Mar. After the. la.--t battle at Pl.i-cill- a, where Generals Barbo and Alcerrega were killed, the bodies of the dead sol-diers were buried in the trenches. The bod-ies of the two generals, however, were al-lowed to lie uncared for where they fell for nearly a week. Finally after the revelry in Valparaiso had partially subsided, their bodies w ere picked up, placed on a rude four-wheele- d cart and dragged through Valparaiso, being spat upon and stoned by the infuriated mob. It was a terrible sight to sec the two bodies, 6tiff in death, being treated in such a hide-ously uncivilized manner. The officer says that Chilean hatred towards the American seamen was manifested on the streets of Valparaiso whenever they went ashore. The Baltimore's men were not the only ones attacked, for one of the San Fran-cisco's crew, a young man named Monahan, w as stabbed in the back one day and suffered for weeks. .--e.

Decision in the Ore Seizure Case. San Antonio, Tex., Nov. 21. United States Circuit Judge Pardee has rendered a decision in the celebrated ore seizing case, recently reviewed by him, on an 'appeal taken by the secretary of the treasury from the United States board of federal appeals of New York City.

HE IXCLOSED HIS CARD. Some Objections to the Article Last Even-ing Headed "Asphaltam Mines." Editor of The Times. Your article enti-tled "Asphaltum Mines," which appeared in last eveniug's paper should have been headed "Gas from Ether." Your correspondent has been misinformed regarding the millions(J of pounds of gilsonite shipped by thcGilon Asphaltum company to St. Louis during the past summer, through Price. It might have gone by balloon or "me other aerial process, but facts like the books of the Rio Grande Western railread fail to account for anything near that amount. The other claims of gilsonite referred to are the Salt Lake Gilsonite company's claims, in which the Messrs. Culmer Bros., have an interest. The Utah Asphaltum company your corres-pondent refers to does not exist, not even on paper. The Salt Lake Gilsonite company ir now shipping two car loads to one of the Gilson Asphaltum company and direct to New York, not Salt Lake as your article would infer. The Anheuser-Busc-h Brewing company make pretty good beer, but I am sorry it has caused so many errors to creep into so small a space. Prospectors and miners, like bear hunters and tishermen, can tell pretty good yarns, but as a rule there is some foundation of truth in their stories.
