Our milwaukee Correspondence

Our wheat market mas pFeSeIlIeu ~
new features during the week. At the
opening the feeling was rather weak and
prices declined fraction from closing
figures of last week, but later the market
improved under coed speculative de-
mand. Foreign advices have been rather
discouraging, but the extreme cold wealth
er in all winter wheat growing sections
begins to tell on the growing crops; and
vague rumors of serious damage reach us
from Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and
New York. 1t is yet too early to deter
mine the extent of the damage, bat the
few data at hand are sufficient to verify
the theory advanced, and damage must
result to the exposed plant. In the
northwestern states the snow has been
deep enough to afford protection, and the
only apparent danger here is that of q
late spring. Old probability predicts cold
weather on the Goth of March for 30 days,
and should these representations prove
as reliable as those for the past month,
we might we'll husband our present pro-
life resources Of breadstufs. The pres.
ent prospects are sufficiently alarming to
induce good demand in the face OF dull
and dropping English markets.
The weather in England has alternated
rain and frost, and although this is re-
ported favorable for the crops, We take a
decidedly different view of it. 1t is the
very worst weather that our friends across
the water can have. 1t is worse than
continued frost.

The Sudden Deaths 40 The COmmerra'
Restaurant,
Result of the AnalySi'Of the SIOmachS
Evidences Of Poison Found.

As stated in the afternoon edition OF
THE HERALD, yesterday, Judge Eur
ford adjourned the jury Of inquest on
the bodies Of the two men who died at
the Commercial Restaurant, Thursday
night, until Monday, to await the re-
port of Mr. l.. NJ. Conn0r to whom the
stumachs had been referred fOl anaIy-
sis. At u late hour last evening u re-
porter ofTuE HERALD called on Mr.,
Conner, aud was informed by him
that he had finished the examination,
and would be ready to report to the
jury Monday morning. While
aversc to giving the substance of
the report until it had been laid
before the proper body, Mr.. Conner
was kind enough 10 inform the re-
porter that he had found plain and un-
mistakable evidences Of poison. In
answer to an inquiry ~ to whether
the poison was of such nature as to
lead to the supposition that it had
been taken accidentally, Mr.. Conner
stated that it was not. lie further
stated that he had examined the cul-
mary vessels around the kitchen ofthe
restaurant, and could find nothing to
support the theory that they had prob
ably been poisoned from verdigris or
some kindred substance. The result
of the analysis, as well AS all the sur
roundings of the ease, points indubita-
bly, to the fact that poison was admin
istercd to them, either accidentally or
otherwise or that they voluntarily
took ii for the purpose Of seli.destruc'
| ton.
Full particulars Of the inquest will
appear in the afternoon edition Of The
| HERALD tomorrow.

Mr.. w. ]. Thermond, living on Ten.
Mile Creek, seven miles west ,of Ian.
caster, yesterday presented The HER,
AID with n beautiful specimen OF
White Borden wheat, grown on his
place this season, which we are con.
tident would grade as No. in any
market. The grain is remarkably
white and plump, and its yield, Mr.. r..
thinks, equal to any variety grown IN
this State. His crop averaged about
thirty bushels to the acre. He pro.
poses to keep his cnti,c crop for sale to
producers for seeding this fall We are
confident 1t would be greatly to the
advantage of our farmers to SOW this
variety, AZ II makes better and whittier
flour than the red wheat, and would
therefore always command better
price. a specimen of this wheat can
be seen at The HERALD Office.
Mr.. Thermond informs us that the
early corn crop in his eighborhood Is
very good, but that the cotton is very
