The Tdmaqud Tragedy.

THE MURDER SAID TO HAVE BEEN THE
RESULT OF JEALOUSY.
A special despatch from Tamaqua
says:-The first theory of the Woods
murder " as that it was another Molly
Mcguire outrage, as Woods was an
Enslishman, and employed at the COLI
ery, but investigation proves it the re-
suit of jealousy. Woods was returning
from the funeral of Miss Boyle, at Sum-
mt Hill, about sundown yesterday, in
company with William Orr, Scotch
Irishman, and his wife, and James
Churchill and wife. Orr and his wife
quarrelled, and Orr knocked her down,
and she claimed protection OF woods.
She arose and kissed Orr, who Knocked
her down again. Then he quarreled
with Woods for interfering. The party
sat down in the road, Orr and wife be-
ing together. Woods continued his
homeward walk alone. 1t is supposed
that Orr followed and overlook him at a
lonely spot on the old summit Hill road
at Foster Tunnel, where he struck him
on the back of the head with base ball
bat which stunned him. Then he
dragged him to the ledge of rocks and
finished his work by banging in his fore
head. Pools of blood indicate a terri
BILE struggle. There is strong circum-
stantial evidence against Orr, who was
arrested by Officer S. F. Peeler. He
was brought here and locked up, and
will have hearing before Chief Bur
CESS tomorrow. The base ball bat was
traced TO Orr, who was seen taking it
from his garden this morning to hide in
his house. Orr denies all knowledge OF
the crime. Woods leaves a wife and
| ten children.

This, it must be considered, only
shows The number of bushels of grain
in bulk, exclusive of the enormous ex-
ports of -four from New York p; and to
the bushels of grain and the barrels OF
flour shipped thence, must be added
all those shipped from Philadelphia,
Boston, Baltimore, and other cities Oh
the coast.
The demands abroad during the last
three years have been exceptionally
heavy, chiefly because OF the crop Iaii-
ures there. This year it is said the condi-
ton of the crops in Russia, is exceeding
ly fair, and that the yield will be nearly
or quite up to the average. But While
the Weld may be good, the average is far
below the common and foreign advices
declare that the demand abroad for oul
grain and flour will be, If not equal &c
last wear at least sufficient to keep up the
prices to point where they will yield al
parties fair profit. The United Statei
exported of last years cereal crop no les
than 175, ,000, 900 bushels, aud it was thu
vast expectation of grain that enables the
country to import so largely without pay
ing one dollar in gold for its foreign pur
chases, and which brought about the sud
den prosperity. Europe, and especially
Great Britain, is learning that 1t can nc
longer compete with America in raising
grain, and with each new year there will
Be less of 1t raised there and more OF \
bought here for Europe's use. Thii
country has become the feeder ofthe Ole
World, and greater, not less, dependence
upon 1t is likely to be the rule hereafter
Not only are our exports certain to in
crease, but now that our manufactures
are ali busy again, lie pro bable that oul
imnortations except in articles OF luxury
will decrease rather than increase. There
are few things Of necessity which caL-
not be produced here as good as any
brought from abroad and as that fact Il
practically proved, our countrymen will
look to.their own looms and anvils. In
stead Of those of Europe, to supply thei
wants.

COSTLY ICE.

Very small amounts of meat are now
shipped TO Europe as compared with
late wears, and this fact is said to be ow-
ing to the high price of ice. This is de-
med by the Knickerbocker Ice Com
many, who allege that the refrigerators
have been taken out of the ocean steam
ers in order to gain space for the thous-
ands of emigrants who swarm to this
country from Europe. A meat exporter,
when questioned on the subject, said
that in bis opinion the high rate OF
freight to Europe acted as a deterrent
equally as much as the high price OF Ice,
which is now S14 ton to butchers. Ihere
are now two vessels In this port discharg
ing cargoes Of ice from Norway.-N. Y

THE DEFENDANTS IN THE CoWHID-
ING CASE GIVE BAIL FOR THEIR
APPEARANCE AT COURT.
Henry B. Courtney, and Catha-
rine, his wife, appeared before the
Mayor, having been arrested on the
charge of assault and battery, pre-
ferred by Edward Tatnall.
The complaint grew out OF the
cowhiding of Mr.. Tatnall last even
ing by Mrs, Courtney, a full account
of which appears IN another column
of the GAZETTE.
Great interest was manifested in
the result of the trial which was
fully attested by the large crowd
that had gathered in and around the
police station.
After waiting until 9.45 O'Clock
the case was called, William G.
Spruance, Esq, appearing as coun-
sci for the defendants.
Before proceeding to call the wit
nesses, Mr.. Spruance informed the
] Mayor that the Statute of the State
limited his power to imposing a
heavier penalty than $40. He
might proceed and hear the testi-
mony, and if he deemed it sufficient
he could impose that penalty upon
the defendants.
The Mayor said he would state
that the evidence of Mr.. Tatnall
alone, was sufficient to send the
case before a jury, but he would pro
ceed and hear the testimony if the
counsel for the defence so desired
it. :,
Mr.. Spruance said if that was the
case, the defendants would waive
hearing. :.
The Mayor held each of them il
the sum of $500 to answer the charge
at the next term of court.

THE RAILROADS.

There is no change in the war of fares be
tween the southwestern roads, and people cal
sill 90 from Chicago to st. Louis, Kansas city
and any intermediate points and back fol
about anything they choose to pay. Meantime
however, the principal roads involved show
nearly the usual income and large profits on
their business, whence the Chicago Times is
trying to scare them into peace by reminding
them that "a spirit OF inquiry has developed
IN many places throughout the state which
may make itself felt in dsagreeable manner
at the approaching session OF the general rs
.embly. Statements of earnings recently pub
lished by the cmbroled companies show that
notwithstanding the extraordinary reductions
IN fare, their Golfers are running over full, and
that there is no immediate prospect Of their
stockholders coming to want. If the railroads
are coming money when selling tickets to Kan
sas city and st. LOUIS at one-tenth the rates
heretofore charged, the question arises What
must have been their profits when the old tar.
if was in full force and etiect?' If low rates
yield such satisfactory profits why not pass a
law making low rates obligatory and perma.
nent?
The war fever in fares appears to be catch.
ing and there are symptoms of it among the
eastward lines from Chicago. A week or two
ago the trunk lines agreed upon winter tariff
OF fares, on basis of $50 to New York and
$2l to Boston. But within a few days it is
found that tickets via the b. & o. and the Pa.
Central roads have been sold for $40, and there
is no telling what the discovery may lead to.

port which was at one time contradicted, that

arrangement whereby it had secured the privil.
ege of running Its trains over the Reading rail-
road to and through Philadelphia to point
of connection with the Bound Brook branch
