1t Is asked why our No. 3 wheat Is so high as
compared with Mo- 2. The answer ia to be found
in the fact that our inspection is moro rigid than
that on the seabonrd. Shippers find that they
can safely mix one part ut No. 3 with tFo parts
Of No. 2 and haye tho whole sent to Europe as
No. 2uuder New York inspection. Hcnce they
can afford to bid up for No 3, and the competi-
ton for that grade is 60 shnrp that they have do
1t. The only injustice that arises out OF this
condfaon of things is that the comparative quo
taeons do not show the real difference out OF
which the shipper pays costs Ut transportation.
Our market may seem to be 10 to the "disfavor"
OF shipments, when it Is actualIy 80 much the
other way.

A Shocking Story.
ALAMosA. Col. Jan. {

ALAMosA, Col Jan. g.
The excitement prevailing over the Ute
trouble in Colorado has been somewhat in
creased lately by letter published from Mrs.
N, G. Meeker, disclosing the fact that each and
all of the women who were held as caphves
after the massacre at White river suffered the
violation of their persons through fear OF worse
treatment at the hands of these red devils
The evidence was given to the commission by
the women in their examination on their release
from captivity, while in the Gunnison country.
1t was fret distinctly understood by them that
this evidence of their mistreatmert should be
used only by the commission in their efforts to
establish the guilt of the lndisns who had per-
petrated tho outrage. Each and all Of the
captives begged that this phase OF their horri-
BILE misfortune should not be given to the public.
1t seems to have been in their situation as cap
tves choice between death or submitting TO
the heilish desires of their captors. The exam
ination further discloses that they were permit
ted, as the last alternative, with the exception
OF Mrs. Meeker, to choose from among the
chiefs who should cohabit with them during the
terrible suspense which their captivity must
have been, following the massacre at the agency.
This evidence was confined to the commits
sion, among whose records it has lain dormant
awaiting the tardy channels Of justice from the
Department OF the Interior until the horrible
suspicion was verified by the appearance in
print of Mrs. Meeker's letter. The Indians, in
speaking Of the ravishing of the women sub
sequently, seemed to regard the act as in per-
feet keeping with the style of warfare in which
they are fond Of induisiug
1t is known that PERFUMES took Josephine
Meeker, and came very near having personal

che was too old, and he thought she ought not
to be running around loose, without being
cared for, so he took ter.

Germany and Russia are discussing the strength

SUNNY ITALY IN THE SNOW.

if Letter from Florence, Itaiy.J
We are. in the midst of cold snap"
such as the combined memories Of three
generations of the "oldesr inhabitants"
of Italy cannot recall. They are COM
PEELED to go back to the latter part of
the eighteenth century to find It's par
allel. The Arno is frozen over at Flor
ence, where the temperature continues
ut little below or above 20 degrees
Fahrenheit, with a bright sun, not
without pleasurable warmth where its
rays fairly strike. In Northern Italy
we read of much lower temperature,
down TO zero. and even lower, and peo-
pie are perishipg from the cold. At
Genoa hickman died from it's effects
in returning from his post.
Foreigners who have come to
Italy for warmth are energetic in their
denunciations of the. extreme cold,
quite overlooking the fact that If they
had remained in France, Germany, or
England they would have had to en-
counter lower temperature with much
less sunshine. Everywhere in Europe
charity is strained to it's utmost to allie
viate the sufferings of the poor and the
multitudes destitute of work. The
lagoons at Venice and the harbor of
Marseilles are 30 incumbered with ice as
to prevent the movement of vessels. In
Southern Italy the trains are interrupt
ed by heavy falls of snow, wires down,

orange blossoms, oleander flowers,
palms and semi-tropical tone of
landscape---is as much ice and
snow bound, frigid and frozen, as
if it had exchanged situations with
Labrador itself. Singular as it may
seem, the coolest persons are precisely
these who are able to keep up the hot
test fires in appearance, for nine
tenths of the heat goes up the Chin
neys, causing shivering draughts to
backs which no amount of extra cover
ing can eflectually warm. Water-pipes
have taken to freezing and bursting in
genuine New York fashion, an event so
unheard of hitherto as to be like the
breaking out of new disease for which
the pharmacopeia has no immediate
remedy. Ii is as hopeless an effort to
attempt to warm an Italian house in
the American fashion as it would be to
heat the North pole by steam. lam
writing in small room. IN which, de-
spite such fire as the small terra Gotta
stove is capable of maintaining, the
thermometer for two weeks has not
risen above 81 degrees, and at this mo-
ment-hanes fire, shall 1 say-at 40
degrees. Still we do not take cold
in SO dismal temperature, and as a
whole, if less comfortable, are in better
health, with less rheumatism, neuralgia,
etc., than during the normal winters,
where ice and snow. are unknown.
The vast majority of city Italians
never have fire at any time. They
keep warm by their reserved stores OF
summer heat l suppose, and frequent
repetitions OF the paziensa (patience(,
which has wonderful consoling force
to them under every affection or dis
appointment. Sometimes it seems
equal to fixed income in Government
bonds in moral sustaining power.
