The Mountain Meadow massacre trial
opened at Beaver, Utah, on Friday, July
%. The first witness for the prosecu-
cution was Robert Reyes. He came to
Utah in October, 1867, through Noun
tain Meadows. Saw two piles of bodies
of women and children, piled promiscu-
ously, about sixty or seventy the chill
dren from two months to twelve years old.
The smaller were torn by wolves and
crows. Some of the bodies were shot,
some had their throats cut, some were
stabbed. All were torn by wolves ex-
cept one, a woman, little way off, which
appeared as if asleep. There was ball

Bennett Was OF the Meadows IN De
cember, 1857. Saw the bones there. 1t
was a horrible sight. There were sKele-
tons of women and children, curls, long
tresses of hair dyed in blood. The
children were 10 to IL years old. Some
of the skulls had the flesh died on. The
bodies had been covered up, and the
wolves had evidently dug them up.

Weekly Review of the Chicago Market.
FINANCIAL.
There was no change to note in the condition
of the money market. Demand for favors
rather light, with an abundance of loanable
funds. Interest rates 6@7c for sixty days,
e(01Oc for long loans. Bonds firm and steady.
BREADsTUFFS.
To say that the grain markets were excited
during the past week would scarcely convey a
good idea of the prevailing state of affairs.
The attendance of local spectators was large,
and the leading grains wheat, corn and oats
attracted more than the usual amount OF
attention The fluctuations in values were very
frequent and unusually severe especially
In wheat. The movement was mainly on
speculative account, and the governing infu-
ences were generally speculative in their tenor,
although there was considerable encourage
ment in the tone of the advices received from
Europe and also from New York. Crop reports
from Europe were unfavorable, and higher
prices were reported both for wheat and corn
At New York an urgent export demand for
wheat existed. and higher prices were readily
obtained The evident firmness of the market
affected the short interest and made them anx-
ious to provide for their outstanding contracts,
while it materially aided the ''bull element
in their endeavors to force prices to higher
range. Spring wheat for August opened at
$1.13, sold at $130, but closed at $1.21T.
Corn opened at 7015c, sold to nc, closed at
1910 August. Oats sold as high as 1870. The
smaller grains were comparatively quiet.
The following table shows the prices current
at the opening and close of the past week:

PROVISIONS.


There was fair degree of activity in this
market during the past week, but q very UNI
settled feeling prevailed, and the fluctuations
in prices were both frequent and severe The
market was governed mainly by local infiu-
ences and sympathized somewhat with the
change in grain. The market closed quite
steady, however, at the following quotations.
Cash mess pork 800 500020.65, seller August
800 so, seller September $20.65 and seller Oc-
tober $21. Is. Lard, cash, 1880, seller Au-
gust closed at $13.55@13.60, seller September
S13. 75@138O.
There was only a moderate amount Of bust
ness transacted i'll butter during the past week,
and the bulk of the round lots sold were taken
by parties using it for repacking purposes.
There was fair local demand for the better
qualities, however, and the supply of these be-
ing rather light, prices ruled steady and firm.
There was but little inquiry on shipping account.
and for medium and low grades the market ruled
dull and stocks have accumulated somewhat.
The supply of the lower grades was very liberal
and among the receipts were but few choice
lots. The quotations given below are for the
following classifcations adopted by the Nation
al Butter Association lExtras--Shall be COM
posed of selections from the finest grades of
fresh made sorts, and shall be of the highest
standard of table butter. Firsts-Shall be
good quality of butter, of uniform natural color,
in season, sweet and properly seasoned. IN
SOOO unlIOfu SUy1o u package, anu Ill SOOO
condition. SecondS4-Shall consist of good,
sweet, solid grade OF butter, uniform in color,
in good style OF package, and in good condi-
ton. Thirds-SLall embrace all sorts between
the quality too poor to be cassed as seconds,
and the grade above grease butter Quotable
at 1926 for extras, 16C019c for frsts, 14@16c
for seconds, 1215@14c for thirds, and 11@
12c for inferior stock. There was a good
trade reported in broom corn and prices were firm
as follows 1119@14c for No. 1 to extra hurl,
11@13c for good to choice stalk braid, and
6@81Sc for crooked. Beans were quiet and
values were trifie easier. Eastern medium
quotable at 80 per brl in lots, and 81. 85 in
small way i; Western do $1.00@1.75 according
to quality. Beeswax sold slowly at 26@28c per
ID for prime yellow. There was quite falling
off in the shipping demand for cheese, and the
market ruled quiet. There was no change
however, nprices round lots sold at 100000,
and in a retail way lie was obtained. Cider
and cranberries are out of the market. There
were q good many cherries received during the
after part of the week and prices were easier.

lions not only the growing crops, but those
crops already harvested have been destroyed.
The returns of the agriculturists there will be
exceedingly small, and the English people will
have to depend to a great extent upon the
American markets for supply Of breadstuffs
Happily we are in condition to supply all
their wants, and there need be no suffering on
account of scarcity.
Alexander and William Collie, of London
firm which recently suspended, have been ar
raigned. charged with putting afoat So, 100000
of bogus paper on the market. The London
and Westminster Bank loses 81, SOC, 600 by these
fraudulent bills.
There was a lively scene in the British House
of Commons tie other day, during the discus
sion of the Shipping bill. Mr.. PlimsoI, the
philanthTopist, charged that some of the vessel
owners purposely sent out unseaworthy vessels
in the expectation of gaining the insurance:
and intilnated that members of the House of
Commons were guilty of such practices. The
scene following this declaration is described as
unparalleled. The Speaker, on motion of Mr.
Disrael, ordered Mr.. Plimsoll to be removed
the bowls of indignation, continued speaking
and shaking his fist at the Government benches.
fellow-member, after Plimsoll had left the
Chamber, apologized for the latters intemper-
ate harangue, by pleading temporary insanity.
Destructive rain-storms are reported in ST.
lesia.
The Canadian government has received in
formation of another rebellion in Manitoba;
that there has been general uprising of the
half-breeds and Indians, and that some of the
mounted police have been killed.
The Irish rifemen have won the Elcho Chal-
lenge Shield, defeating the English and Scotch
teams. The Americans kept target for the
Irishmen and superintendent their shooting,
which probably accounts for their success.
Count Dzembeck, his mother and d chamber
maid, have been arrested at Landeck in the
district of Breslau, charged with being con-
cerned in a conspiracy to assassinate Prince
Frederick William.
The loss by the floods in the south of France
is officially stated at $15, 1000, 600.
Meetings are being held in England to in
dorse the course of Plimsoll, the agitator, in
denouncing the government.
And now comes the news of the failure of the
crops in many districts of Portugal, caused by
drought. The cattle are dying of hunger, and
famine is threatened.
The reported plot to assassinate the Crown
Prince of Germany was hoax.
The English ship Stuart, bound from London
to Bombay, has been lost at sea. Thirty-eight
of the crew persisted.

CIvILIZING THE INDIANs.-A correspon-
dent of al Eastern journal suggests that all
attempts to make the red man a farmer must
fail for the reason that pastoral life always pre-
cedes agriculture in civilization, and proposes
that the experiment be made of making cat
tle-raisers out of the Indians There may be
something in this, but if experience is worth
anything the noble red man would very soon
be engaged il raiding upon the pasture
grounds of his neighbor tribes, and endless
strife would follow. The truth is that all at
tempts 10 civilize the Indians are doomed to
failure, simply because there is no royal road
to civilization. Evolution does not proceed
in leaps, whatever Mr.. Mivart may think,
and it is as impossible to transform a tribe of
nomads into community of orderly citizens
as il would be TO make even an average Con-
gresham out of ChiInpanzee. All attempts
TO condense the slow process of generations
into the work of few years or months must
fail. because they are attempts 10 transcend
natural laws The Indians might certainly
be changed as some joke-loving folks once

FAILURE OR SUCCESS IN LIFE.-Here are
British Parliament, Lord Derby, who is
robust, manly man. He says: Take two
men, if they can be found, exactly alike in
mental and bodily aptitudes, and let one go
on carelessly and idly, indulging lis appe-
tites, and generally leading r life of pleasure,
and let the other train himself by early
hours, by temperate habits, and by giving to
muscle and brain each their fair share of en-
ployment, and at the end of three years they
will be as wide apart in their capacity for
exertion as if they had been with wholly
different constitutions. Without a normal.
healthy condition there can, as a rule be no
good work; and though that quality cannot
absolutely be secured or preserved by any
set Of rules, a little common sense and care
will go long way ID both securing and pre-
serving it. On that point | would give you
these hints: First, that it is not mental Ia

through; SO that the man who can accustom
himself to take things cody, which is quite
as much a matter of discipline as of nature,
and who, by keeping well beforehand what
he has to do, avoids undue hurry and ner-
vous excitement, has a great advantage over
one who follows q different practice. Next,
l would warn You that those students who
think they have no time for bodily exercise
will sooner or later have TO find time for i'll
ness. Third, when an opportunity of choice
is given, morning work is generally better
than night work and lastly-a matter which
I should not stop to allude to but that know
the dangers of an ovcr-driven existence Ill a
crowded down-if man cannot get through
his days labor, of whatever kind it may be,
without ('artifcal snpport'-that means beer
or bourbon it should be serious considera-
ton for him whether that kind Of labor is fl
for him at ALL"
