SHOT HIS BROTHER.
a Terrible Murder for Revenge.

Some time last fall the residence Of
Walter Holbrook, Leon, in Ashtabula
county, O., was entered, and 1000 in
money stolen. The residence of Mr..
Dolph was also entered on the same even
ing; and $500 stolen.
1t was not known who committed these
thefts until young man named John
Reed confessed to couple of brothers
that he was the culprit. They therefore
made complaint against him, and he was
indicted for these offenses by the grand
jury of that county.
The trial was set for next week, and
the fact that his misfortune was traceable
to the action of his brothers seemed TO
infiame Reed more and more as the time
approached. He was heard to make
threats against his brothers lives, but
no attention was paid to him until Tues
day night, when he gave proof of his
sincerity by entering the house of his
brother Charles and firing three shots,
all of which took effect in the head of
his victim.
The att ok was deliberately planned,
for before entering the house Reed
made torch by wrapping paper about
the stick. He then crept into the house
and made his way to the bedroom of his
brother. He struck light to apply to
his torch, when the brother sat up in
bed. John thereupon drew a revolver
and fired three shots. The first struck
Charles in the eye and penetrated the
brain, while the remaining two took eff
feet in the face. The victim was not
killed Immediately, but at last accounts
no hope was entertained of his recovery.
The murderer left the house, but made
no attempt to get away. He was ar
rested as soon as the murder was report
ed to the authorities and taken to the
county jail.
The affair created intense excitement
in that section of the country, as both
the victim and his slayer were well
known and bore respectable regulations.
The former was about 26 years of age
and married, while the latter was about
81, and single.-C2eveLand Leader.

at 71%(dSc per n. There was fair demand
for old potatoes, at S016dS5c for peachblows in
car lots, and 75@S0c for Western do. New
potatoes were scarce and firm at S5.50(d6O0 in
barrels. Pop corn 203c per n. Salt was easy
and l0@l2c lower /; quotable at S1.50 for Onon-
daga and Saginaw fine and 81. 20 for ordinary
coarse. Old vegetables were but little called
for and the market ruled dull (; new were quite
active and sales were made ut S1.75012.00 for
cabbage in crates of two doz each, sl.75d2. 90
for one bushel boxes OF green peas and string
beans, 506c75c per doZ for cucumbers, and 80
(tl60c per doz for kohlrab. Strawberries were
in larger supply and lower. The market closed
at S1.75d2.00 per case for Michigan and Zoe
per quart for Southern Illinois. Veal was in
fair request at 5dS16c for common to choice.
The receipts of wool were fair, but prices ruled
steady at 3SG42c for coarse to fine washed: %
G32c for coarse heavy to fine light unwashed.
SEEDS AND HIGHwISEs.
These markets were both dull, and the
amount of business transacted was exceedingly
light. For seeds there was no demand except
ing few orders for buckwheat, and holders
being generally anxious to close out their con-
signments, weak feeling prevailed and the
market closed shade easier. Timothy quot
able at S2.35G2.45 for fair to good, and $3.50
Cl650 for prime medium. Sales of hungarian
ranged at &1.25@1.4e for prime closed at
the inside. Millet quotable at S1.75@1. 80
and buckwheat sold quite readily at 1850
lao for prime. Highwines were inactive, with
buyers and sellers apart. At the close there
were sellers on the market at S1.16, and S1.15
was bid.
CooPERAGR, LUMBER AND WOOD.
Trade in cooperage, as is usual at this time
of the year was light, but there were only a
few small lots offered on the market, and values
were maintained. Quotable at S1.1216 for pork
barrels, S1.45 for lard tierces, S1.90G2.00 for
whisky barrels, and 45@55c for flour barrels.
There was but little demand for lumber, and
sales dragged slowly, but values, although
rather weak, were without material change.
Strips and boards closed at S8.50@14.00 joist
and scantling at $780, lath at $50 and shin
giles at $2.25(d2.70. Wood was very quiet at
about former prices. Quotable at $1,000 so
per cord for hickory, $6.50@7.0O for maple,
$5.5O@G.00 for beech, and $500 for slabs at
the yards.

by Rigby, Dublin gunmaker, the shooting was
regarded as showing the superiority of the
Americans, az the match was mainly for prao-

London business circles and a number of fail

The report that the Emperor of Russia had
withdrawn from the trpartite alliance is de-

At Chen-Kiang, China recently, some native
soldiers insulted the United States Consul and
his wife. Two of them were arrested and
taken to the British consulate, when the SOL
diers endeavored to rescue them. The Europe
ans hastily mustered and prepared to defend
the consulate but the Chinese authorities sue
ceeded in quieting the mob. A United States
and British man-of-war have gone there from
Shanghai, and there will probably be no repe-
tition of the outrage.
