Late Dairy Markets.


There is little change to make in the
Utica and Little Falls markets. The
highest quotation was 10 cents-a de-
cline of J cent, which shows that cheese
is weakening in price The highest
quotation for cheese, last year, at the
same time, was 16 cents, which is prob
ably about what new cheese will start at
this year.
The market in New Orleans is report
ed bare, and quotations 10 cents. At the
cheese fair, held in England, March 10,
the supply was fair and prices ranged
from 80 to go English shillings per hun
dred. At the Derby England Fair, a
wagon load of cheese, made at Litch-
field factory, was offered and sold at 70
shillings per hundred. Ten tons were
sold at this price. The Mark Lane En-
press says: I'VE understand the Derby
shire factories are realizing from 70 to 76
shillings for their cheese, which is chief
ly Of the Derbyshire and Leicester shape,
plain and cOlored."
Inc receipts OF cheeSe IN New Ofk
for the week ending Saturday last, were
1891 boxes, and the exports were TO-,
900 boxes.
BUTTER.
Prices were well sustained, and the
prospect is fair, and quotations not
changed in most markets.
ST. ALBANS BUTTER MARKET.
The butter market, on Tuesday, was
quite active. Winter diaries, % to 80
cents; spring diaries, 81 to IS cents;
and SO cents for extra lots
The wholesale price of factory cheese
is reported at 81 to % cents. This price
is far higher than the market can bear.
At the Richmond market, on Monday
last, the price OF butter ranged from 80
to 35 cents per pound.

Effects Of the storm.

The rain Of Sunday, together with the
warm weather since, closing with the
heavy rains Of Tuesday and Wednesday
have had the effect of preceptibly dimin-
ishing the snow, raising the rivers and in
some cases seriously interrupting rail
road travel
On the Rutland railroad the Tuesday
night express from Boston was stopped
ut Bartonsyllle by a landslide near the
depot, which although soon removed, it
was not considered safe for the passage
of trains till during the day yesterday.
The passengers therefore remained there
until the arrival of the night express
from this place, when they were car
ried by" and the train backed into Rut-
Ian !, arriving here about a. m.
On the Harlem Extension railroad,
the mail train, Tuesday night, passed
South SAaftsl Y on time, but soon were
obliged 70 come to a stand-still, the road
he'd, between that station and SALISBURY,
LING washed out in two places. The
freight train had passed ''all right an
hour before, but during that time the
melted snow and falling rain had worked
their way through the road bed making
two Clia>ms each about forty feet in
length, and but for the care and caution
with which the road is managed and the
trains run frightful accident must have
taken place. The passengers, of course,
were unable to proceed, but on the ar
oval of the "milk train" from this place
yesterday morning, the passengers were
transferred and reached Rutland about
noon. A force of men are at work re-
pairing the break, and it is expectedthat
;he regular running of trains will soon
be resumed.
At the present writing, we have
learned Of no other damage to the rail
roads In this vicinity, but it is impossi-
ble to predict what may occur before
going to press.

Since the above was In type We learn
of at least two more washOuts on the
Harlem Extension railroad, being be-

being some eighty feet long and from
four to ten feet deep, and the other thir
ty feet in length and about ten feet deep.
1t Is now expected that the road will
be repaired so that trains will make
their regular trips Friday.
A train will leave here at seven o'clock
this morning and proceed as far as pos

THE RESULTS OrTswREsTLING.'

ALMOST A TRAGEDY

Last Saturday evening persons pasSlns
down Washington street might nave ~
served near the foot of the street TWO III
diyiduals engaged in the somewhat laSn
lonable amusement of ''wrestling. nv
least this is what it might have oe1n
called by casual observer, ana un6 ;"
have been all for ssthe fun of the thins,
But to one examining little more c.o0o
and looking somewhat below the SURFACE
1t would probably have been disco'1.o ~
that there was not so much fun aIIei
all, and that though commenced per
haps, in sport, 1t had already gone ueep-
er and excited angry passions anu "'
the sequel shows revengeful feellhSs
were at work. Bnt the parties sepera'eo
unframed, only to meet again Yesterday
and then to part again both alive oh'y
by a miracle.
The names of these youths were Dl. .,
McGinnis, who resides near Pine liiii'
and ''Bill" Daniels, the Clarendon soap
man. AS we said they parted 0"'u'-
day "but to meet again" Wednesday,
About noon yesterday parties were
wrestling in front of the Town Hail. on
Washington street, one of them was
Daniels but the name of the other party
we have not ascertained. The result Oh
the match, contest, or whatever name IL
may be called by, was that DanIelS d.
though he had made great pretenSlonS 10
skill in that particular direction was
badly worsted, and his opponent fetlr-
ing on his laurels, Daniels goes over 10
the meat market on the other side OF the
street. Here he meets McGinnls, his
competitor of Saturday, who 1t would
seem had been an interested spectator or
the late trial of skill and was rejoicing
somewhat at the others defeat. Be this
as it may, no sooner had Daniels and
McGinnis met than the latter commene-
e so taunt the other with his want Of
success, reminds him of his former
Dragging. and, as one OF the bystanders
classically expresses it ''blackguarded
him generally"
Daniels replied in equally choice and
expressive language, until ''stung to
madness" as John Graham would say,
he seized meat axe, lying near by, and
with one blow on the forehead felled
him to the floor. He then, turned, as it
is alleged, and was about to strike him
again, this time with the edge, when he
was prevented by the bystanders. Be
coming, by this time, alarmed at the
consequences of his act, and probably
fearing that his victim was killed, he
hastily fled, took his horse which was
near at hand and made all speed toward
Clarendon.
The injured man, McGinnis, was soon
placed in charge of DR.. Pond, and it was
found that the flesh on the forehead was
cut to the bone, but, as if by a miracle,
the bone was not fractured, and 1t is ex-
pected that McGinnis will soon be him
self again.
