Survivors of an American Crew Fired on

s.v- Fo-vycisco. sept. IS. The schooner
Lewis nas arrived from tue f jr -orth with
2.500 sealskins and the survivor of the crew
of the C. C. White, who were lo-t in the fog
on Aag. 7 when sixty m.les from Cooper
I-land. she picked up three boats and
eleven of the crew of the White, who lost
their vessel in a foi: and had been Ave days
In boats. Raymon. one survivor, told a
thrilling story of how they were fired upon
by unseen enemies on Cooper island and
three shot. He said they spent the first
nirrhs in an uninhabited part of Cooper
Island. In the moraine when rowing around
the island to reach a settlement they sud
denly heard reports and bullets whizzed near
them. He continued -In our boat wera
myself. Krr and Jackson. When the volley
was fired the fog was so dense we could
hardly see the hore. Our assailants were
hidden behind the cliff and we could not
tell how many they numbered. Jackson
received a wound in the leg. TUen Kerr
was shot in the breast and a second after
ward I was also -hot in the breast. Kerr
died In two hours, but Jackson and I re
covered." Raymon though: Aleuts did the
firing, but otners say they thinlt the Rus
sian larrison stationed there to keep off
seal poochers committed the outrage. Sis
other men who were picked up by the
steamer Karluck arrived here Monda.7.
BULLS OF BASHAM.
They Were tet Loose in the Chicago Corn

Chicago, Sept. 13. All the bulls of
Basham were let loose In the com. pic on
tie hoard of trade at the opening, and the
bellowed In a w.ay to lift the roof. May corn
was the leading option, which closed at
32 3-:c last night. It opened this morning
from anywhere from 34c to 3oc in aifferent
parts of the pit. and one trade was reported
at 36c. Inside of two minutes it was dowi. to
33 l-4c, when it became le-s wild, running up
to 33 l-2c. The chief cause of th
furor was 'the reports of killing
frost.- in the northwest. This was intensified
by the po-ting of -u notice from ;mith Co..
who have been heavy dealers In corn, that
they were unable to meet their obligations.
It was sated in the notice they were even
on the market, being neither lone nor short,
and rqaested tho-e havinz deals with them
to call at the offices. The firm has been
dealing heavilv in wheat and corn, espec
ially the latter. Ce said they recently sold
calls on corn to th- amount of 51. 300,000, on
which they were heavy I-ers. December,
which clo-ed at 51.03 T-1? la-t night, opened

THE FIELD OF HONOR.
3Iee!ln:r or a French and American Lady
Only to lis Placed Under Arrest
London, sept. 13. The New York irbrfd
corre-poudent -muds the following cable
gram :
Two ladies In duel. Swords as weapons.
Jealou-y the cause."
The-e sensational headlines appeared in
a leading daily over a Pans dispatch thL
morninz. The -wry. as told, is unique. A
French lady accused an American lady of
attempting to alienate the affections of her
husband. Both ladies met at the Cafe
Americaine and made a cene. As soon as
the French woman had made her charges
the American became indignant and told
her she mu-t be dreaming, as she had never
spoken to the Frenchman.
Madame waxed wroth and slapped her
transatlantic otisin with iier gloved hand,
and told her -he could prove her a. ertion.
-he then -eferred to her meeting with her
husband on the Boulevard ies Italiens.
The whole -tory. the American lady said.
wa- an outrigeous fal-ehood. anil she save
the Fren.-h woman twenty-four hours hi
which to retract her won!-.
At the end of this period, nonotice having
been taken of the insult, the American lady
challenged her nntagoni-t to a duel. The
latter a pied and said she would fight
with word.-.
Everything being arranged they, with
their friends, repaired to Mendon Woods on
Thursday morning. All wa- ready, when
three geiidarme- -topped up and arrested
the d-jct-or and principals and took them to
the -ouprefecture. some lady friend of
the French madame. it is allecod. gave the
information t4 the police in advance, and
they were in hiding ready to prevent blood
shed. The lieutenant of police was sent for, and
after listening to the report of hi- men.
-aid it was perhap- as rational for women
to fight dull .is for men. but it happened to
be an offense aga:n-t French laws, and it
wa- the duty of the police to arre-t all per--ons
engaged in it. A certain discretion
was perniiued. however, whe:e the offense,
a- in this cae. had not been actually com
mitted. If the ladies would give him their parole
d'honneur njt to attempt any farther
breach of the peace and deliver to him their
weapons, which would be confiscated, he
would release them. Both the ladies then
made a plea for the doctor, who had been
prevailed upon t accompany them, and he,
1. o. was re 'eased.
The names of the per-ons were refused by
the police, who merely declared that the
ladies -tood high In social circles, and as
they were not likely to meet again there
was no necessity for publishing their iden
tity. At the club- the affair was discu ed and
the regret e.pr"--ed that the tight had been
stopped, a- a little blood letting was the
wor-t mat i-ould happen and would have es
tablished a prec-ident.
CLEVELAND HAS A SCHEME.
Ho
May Move to M:isachn--etts
to
Further Political Ambition.
Boston. M 1 .. -ept. I.J. Democrats gen
erally, and tho-e derisively called by their
opponents mugwumps." in particu
lar, have been very much exer
cised durwig the last forty-eight hour
over rumor- that e.t-Preident Cleve
land has decided to abandon New York as a
place of residence and -eek a home among
hi- enthusiastic admirer- in Massachusetts
Effort- to get something definite from Mr.
Cleveland himself have proved unavailing,
but tho-e that are near him intimate that
with the rank and file of the party in New
York more or le-s dominated by Hill, he
would have much better pro-pects in 1-92 if
his piau of campaign was mapped out among
trusted friend- in Ma achusctt.-. The dem
ocratic leade-r- are me-t hopeful of his com
ing, although Mr. Collins says he -hould
th:uk Cleveland would rather meet Hill on
hi- own ground and win the prestige such a
victory would give him. If he comes Mr.
Cleveland will -careely live in this city, but
rather in -ouie of its picturesque and con
venient -iibiirb. -everal excellent oppor-tunitie-
for a bu-iaess parmer-hip are open
to him here.
A Mayor ami Alderman Flsht.
Lt 'Cisville. sept. 13. A -en-ational en
counter between Charles D. Jatob. mayor
of LouisvJle. and Alderman Joseph Leahy
occurred in tne private ouic? ot tne Louis
ville City National bank. His honor pulled
off hi- .tat asid ve-t. lowered his suspenders
and -ailed inro the alderman, who also
-quared for action. Friends interfered be
fore any serious damage was done. Mayor
Jaob has ju-t retu-ned from a tour around
the world, shortly before he left the Louis
ville cyclone relief committee turned over
tv him 520.000 a- an unu-ed portion of the
eit subscription to the f una for the bene
fit of the -ufferers. It has teen alleged that
the mayor used a portion cf this money on
hi- trip around the world, paying is back
when he returned. Mr. Leahy, as chairman
of th finance committee, called at the bank
to see if the entire 520 000 was on depo-it.
and if it had been there all the time. The
two gentlemen met m the bank office, and
the encounter resulted. Mayor Jacob is a
rather delicate gentleman, but he has a
reputation for pugnacity. When minister
to Bogota under Clereland.-he knocked out
Con-ul King and his recall grew out of the
trouble.
Trouble in Coffee Circle.
Rio J.c.no. Sept. 13. Coffee merchants
met in this city to-day to protest against
the grant made by the government to tho
organizer- of the pr pjsed coffee auctions
of the privileges of -Lipping coffee sold at j
tno-e auction- without immediate payment
of export duties. This grant, which
allows the first payment on account of the
duty to be made at the end of twe
year and the other payments gradu
ally thereafter, is called by an evening
paper a usurpation and scandal. One of
the grounds on which the minister of finance
attempt to justify his measure is the asser
tion that within a few months congress will
approve the constitution published by the
government abolishing export duties. This
apor asks him whether he thinks the fuere
congress so -ervile that he can anticipate
its action. It is stated that the person ob
taining the grant is a relative of Deodoras.
The Financial Situation Easier.
Coesson Springs. Sept. 13 The president
from 10 to 1 o'clock was in the telegraph of
fice in correspondence with Secretary Wln
dem. at New York, and Assistant secretaries
Batcheller and Nettleton. in regard to the
financial situation. Word was received
from Secretary Wisdom that money was
easier and that the panicky feeling that
has prevailed la Wall street for several
days is gradually disappearing.
DUX'S WEEKLY REVIEW
THE MARKETS TIGHT ON HIGH
RATES PAID FOR MONEY
An Unfavorable Crop Report Causes Higher
Prices for staples A et Advance During
the Weik of 4 Cent on Wheat Sales
Collection- Reported Satisr.tc ory.
New York. sept. I.. R. G. Dun & Cos
IVeeMy Rwicor Trtuie ays: The past week
has fully ju-tidetl tho-e who gav- warning
that the monetary ca-e. eau-ed by treasury
ai-bur-oment.'-. could he but temporary.
The Eiurket here nas been tight with ex
treme rate- paid in -ome c:i-es. At Boston
and Philadelphia the monetary pressure also
affects business: at Chicago the market is
-omewhat firmer and the demand active; at
sr. Louis it is stiff at 7 to - per cent: at
Kansas City more firm; at Omaha a trifle
close, but firmly supplied: nr Milwaukee
very active and to some exte-nt disturbed by
a large lumber failure in the interior; at
Detroit the d.-n.aad t- -irons a' .' per cent;
at Cleveland the tigiitnes- i rigidly as
cribed to the votemo of busine--: at Pitts
burg the demand i? fair at 8 to 7 per cent.;
and only ut New Orleans, of all the cities
reporting, is the market easier.
The immediate fright at New York was
about the -apposed enormous demands for
payment of du;Ie if tne new tariff -hould
go iato effect Oct. I. The fact, as officially
reported. Ls that le-- than S7.0OO.U00 will
pay full duties u all gn.ds in warehouse
on which the rule- ! .ie I.een increased,
but no one suppt-e-s that the enure
quantity would be taken out and
meanvvuile the treasury is now offering to
pay out 52tt.iNiO.0U0 for I 1-2 per cents and
52.'i.U0O.oO0 more in prepayment of interest
on the 4 1-2 per cents. If there were 110
speculative tendency interfering with free
government or crop-, commercial bills would
-0011 draw money from anroail. but an un
favorable crop icport cau-e's higher prices
for -tanle. and prior to that the exports
had It e.i very light, prices being t.R high
f.r foiei.ra markets.
Breadstuff had not been -trong until
Thur-day. the !ate-t information as to yield
being generally more favorable. But th3
government report as to the condition
sept. 1 enabled -peculator- to produce a
1 -bear panic" and the net advance for the
1 weei, ha- been 4 cents In wheat en sales of
2o.ot.ii bti-iiel-. 3 cent- in corn on sales of
lo.ouo bushels and 4 cent- in oats. Lard
! ami hogs were also stronger and the report
that cotton was in condition a shade lower
than last year caused a rise of a sixteenth)
with -ales of 5'J'1.'00 bn.e- for the week.
Other products have not changed much in
price, though oil is 2 .1-4 cents lower,
i The report- from other cities indicate no
; -laokening of activity on account of nion
I etary duliculty at any point west or south
. of Philadelphia. The reports 11- to col
lections are almost uniformly satisfactory.
The crops are moving fa-t, prices encourag
ing farmer-, but do not forward to consum
ers as rapidly. Di-tribution of merehan
. disc in nearly all lines continue much In
ejcce.-s of last year at every point reporting
, and at Philadelphia and Boston the
leather and btxjt and shoe trades are
1 exceptionally good: at Boston the pool
is much mere active and at Chicago
there - a steady increase over last year in
the movement of drv goods, clothing and
meat. St. Louis reports strong trade in
! nearly all lines and from other points the
l accounts are of -dmilar tenor. The great
I indu-trie- are doing well. Tne weekly out
1 put cf iron rises again to 171. 773 tons
' against lti.7'Js Ag. 1. and 134.065 a year
ago. The market for pig iron is weaker.
, though no recorded change in prices
; i- seen. Tho Lar. plate, -truetural,
sheet and wrought pipe mills are all
' t r wded with work ;t full and occasionally
aivaucmg price-. Greater activity hi tlie
w -olen manufacture is -iiowa by the rapid
, ri-e in ali and the -peetly pas-ace of tie
tariff bill 1- anticipated a a busts for larger
operations. The activity in dry goeds Is.
everywhere increased, while the demand is
large and general. The coal trade has
done nothing to -peak of and the demand
j here is below expectations. The minor
' metals are stronger, though for copptjr the
1 pre-ent demand is light. In -hort. there is
I every reason for a large and propersous
! bu-iues-. if the pressure in money niarkets
1 i- met and that pressure tends to curt itself
quickly by repressing speculation.
The business failure- occurring through-
I out the country during the last seven days
I number 1-S.l. a- compared with 204 last week
I and 1?'J the week prev lous to the last. For
the corresponding week of last year the fig
. ures were IlKI.
Iowa Weather Crop Service.
Des Moines, -ept. 1;. This week's bulle
1 tin of the weather crop service gives esti
mates of corn oy counties. The average of
the-e reports would indicate a yield for
the entire state to be thirty-four bushels
per acre. The bulk of the crop in the
-tate Is fully mature; about ?0 per cent, in
the northern half Ls beyond damage by
frost. Thi- morning's frcst was general and
is quite damaging to late potatoes and
tender garden vegetables and belated corn.
Crop- in France.
P.utis sept. 1J. Returns received from
the wheat growing -ections of France show
the crop this year to be I.?.-l.nu3 hectoliter-

rels daily a zam-t 172.3ti0 barrels the week
before, anil 133.3?0 for the corresponding
time in 1-pu. and 144. Ouo in 1SSS. There
were eighteen mills in operation at noon
yesterday, and they were grinding at tVe
rate of about 27.5u0 barrels per twenty-four
hours. The water power has unexpectedly
improved, so that all except two mills have
stopped their engines and are running
wholly by water. The milis are now about
ail grinding new wheat to greater or less
extent, the percentage used running all the
way from 10 to U0. Country mills appear to
be Using it even more treely.
The declining tendency of wheat has
made the flour market very dull, and quota
tions have been reduced 3 to 13 cents per
barrel. The sales of the last seven days
have been exceptionally light, and the ma
jority of the arms here have about caught
up on orders, this being especially true as
to patent-. With wheat somewhat stronger
to-day. there -eemed to be a trifle more in
quiry for flour. The export trade is -till
very light. Some of the mills are able to
make more or less sales of fancy bakers in
wood fur seaboard points at very good fig
ure0. One small sale cf this kind was made
to-day at 54.00 per barrel in Detroit, equal
to 53.17 in New York. The export shipments
for the week were 31.790 barrels, against

CROP CONDITIONS.
, Government Report for September Corn
t ami Wheat Both allow Le-s Favorable
Results.
, Washington. Sept. 11. The national
crop report for September shows that the
injury to the com crop reported List month
was inten-iiietl by the continuance of the
drouth in August until rains came to Its re
lief, but were too late for full recovery.
The average is 70.1. against 73.3 last mouth.
It is the lowest average -ince I -''I. The de
cline occurred in New York. Ohio and Il
linois and in the northwestern states, and in
some others of less importance. The crop is
late in the eastern staces. requiring matur
ing weather throughout September. Tho
Ohio valley and Missouri valley report
protracted drouth and poor condition.
While the rains of the last two weeks of
August have been beneficial nearly
everywhere they have not always re
stored the losses of the first half of the
month. The best condition is in Kansas,
though some of the western counties make
, good return's. The Dakotas and Nebraska
are a little higher.
Returns of the condition of winter wheat
at the time of harvesting are less favorable
than thos. of the 1st -;f July. So far as
thrashing has progressed results are gen
cnilly disappointing. Tho July avcrige
was 71.2. and the present average is 73.3.
Tho general average of -priug wheat is also
reduced from 53.2 to 70.-. The average for
wheat of both kinds is 7-.3. In 1 the
September average for wheat was 77. and
was 73 in issi. The yieliLof spring wheat is
unusually variable in the Dakot-is. ringing
from high yields to 3 bushels and Ie-s per
acre. The progress of thrashing will de-
1 velop the extent of these differences.
i Rye yields less than was expected. The
condition as reported is reduced to S3. 1.
The September condition of oats is the
lowe-t ever reported, having fallen from
. 70.1 In August to 04.4. The rate of yield
1 vvill be the smallest in twenty years.
! The condition of barley is not very seri
ously lower from -2.5 to 7-.'.
Buckwheat Ls fully maintained, its Au-
gust condition average being 00.5 against
, 00.1.
Figures for potatoes have fallen since
A ur. 1 from 77.1 to 03. 7. the lowest average

1 CANADIAN RECIPROCITY.
Attorney-General Langley. of Halifax.
I Gives Inside History.
Halifax. N. s.. Sept. 11. Attorney-Gen-
eral Langley has arrived at his home. II
describes his important trip to the United
States. In an interview he says:
1 "I had no more thought of visiting Wash
ington than of going to Australia, but whit
I was In New York Mr. Winian suggested
the importance of making -ome -peeial ef
fort to indtico the American congress to m-
1 elude Canada in the scheme of reciprocity.
Mr. Blaine has already declared in favor of
1 reciprocity' with tho states of south
America, and his idea has been embodied
I In proposed amendments to the McKinley
bill In the -enate.
"Recognizing the Importance of the mat
ter, I consented to accompany Mr. Wiman
to Washington, although I confess I had no
very great confidence that anything could
bo accomplished in this late stage
of the ses-Iou. I found leading men in the
1 senate and house, of both political
partie . most friendly and predi-po-ed
rather than otherwise to extend the prin
ciple of reciprocity to Canada. There are
some senators from the New England states
who seem to be opposed to It in deference
to the predjudice of some portion of their
constituents.
"Among prominent men with whom I had
the plea-ure of discusssing this question
was senator Sherman, of Ohio. To my P
light at the next sitting of the sonato.
heard senator Sherman propose the resoU
tion which has now become so well know
throughout Canada, and wiii.-h. if adopted
will certainly revolutionize the pol'cy .

of tho house assured me that in was .
tremely likely that Senator Sherman"- Tes
tation would be adopted by the -enate.
