PENNSYLVANIA Coal TRADE.-As regards
prices for the month OF December the shippers
Of coal on the 9th ult agreed on the following
as the minimum prices for white ash coal on
board at Port Richmond, to points where the
drawbacks are allowed by the Philadelphia and
Reading Railroad Company: Lump and steam
boat So so per ton, broken 81, egg 81 p, stove
81 60, chestnut IS 80; and TO all other points an
addition of forty cents per ton on lump and
steamboat thirty-fve cents per ton on broken,
egg and chestnut, and twenty-five cents per ton
on stove except that the minimum price for
white ash coal delivered in New York, VII. Port
Richmond or tho Schuylkill canal, can be rs
follows: Lump and Steamboat So Is pei. ton,
broken So egg s. 25, stove So 90, chesnut 81 G3
These last prices to apply only to New York
and vicinity, where the Delaware and Rarltan
canal draw back is not allowed. The condition
of the market, rs inferred from prices and de-
mund, is pretty well supplied. The trade of
next year is already awakening attention. The
miners are calculating upon higher wages, and
the operators say such - thing is lmpractlcabc
at the most favorably located mines, and quite
impossible at ali others. y good many o!crl-

CINCINNATI, July GA shocking trag
edy was enacted here, this evening, Ii
which a boy Of 10 years old, named Frank
schikk, the son Of a widow, was shot and
killed by the Rev. Samuel ]. Brown, ar
aged local minister of the Methodist
Church. 1t appears Mr.. Brown has been
for some time greatly annoyed by boys
who in spite oil repeated remonstrances
have entered his premises to take his
fruit, and commit other depredations
To-day number Of boys were playing ball
outside, when the ball was thrown into Mr.
Browns yard and young Schikk entered
the premises to recover the ball, when the
old man fired at him with slugs, one Of the
pieces striking him in the breast, inilict,
ing q wound from which the boy died In
few moments.
Brown was arrested by two officers
and was subsequently released on fifty
thousand dollars bail.
The terrible affair has created great ex-
citement in the neighborhood of the
Brighton House, near which 1t occurred.
a large crowd assembled tonight in the
vincinity Of Mr.. Browns house which is
guarded by detachment Of police, and II
is feared from their temper that they will
take the law into their own hands should
Brown be found. It is a most remarka.
BILE case and appears hard 10 account fol
save upon the presumption that Brown
was not in his right mind. heis So years
old, one Of the Oldest citizens, and has
hitherto been above reproach. For some
time he has been quite childish. He
owns property to the amount Of several
hundred thousand dollars.
