bic story is told in connection with
the death Of James Langdon, clerk In

Tuesday evening last. A short time
after his body had been removed from
the room in which he died to the par.
lor in front, married and single
daughter Of the deceased entered the
vacated room, and beheld, as they ssy,
an apparation, which they describe
as a small blue light Of dazzling
brilliancy. The light, which
was almost tho size OF an ordinary cam
die flame, went about the bed in which
Mr.. Langdon had died, in the form Of
a circle. and disappeared, when the
young ladies, beside themselves with
terror, embraced and uttered pierre
ing cries. The younger sister has not
yet recovered from the shock. Both
saw the apparition at the same time.
Another singular circumstance re-
lated by the friends of the deceased.
is that the clock in the Office in which
he had worked for nearly a quarter OF
century stopped at 7:20 D m. on
Monday night, while Mr.. Langdon's
death occurred at7:20 pm. the fol-
lowing evening. The clock is still
stopped, and will not be set again until
the funeral takes place.

moderately active during the week just
closed. The curtailment of telegraphlo
facilities tended to check
business to some extent, particularly
on some outside business account, and
more especially during the early part of
the week. Trading on local account wss
quite active, however, though there was a
little more disposition manifested to keep
contracts we'll transferred ahead. The
market was somewhat unsettled, and
prices for all the leading descriptions
fuctuated considerably, though confined
within smaller range than during the
week previous. The offerings for future
delivery were a little more free, operators
being encouraged in this course by the in
creased receipts of hogs. Early in the
week the marked was enclined to dullness.
Quotations at the close show reductions on
most articles as compared with one week
ago. The shipping demand was fairly
active, but orders were mainly for small
quantities. Some of the larger .distribut-
ing markets appear to be enlarging their
stocks, which are understood to be lighter
than last year. The receipts
of product for the week were fair and the
shipments of all kinds quite liberal, the
movement showing further reduction in
the stocks on hand. The export move
ment is quite large, and the returns show
a material increase over those of one year
ago.
The receipts of all grains were larger
as 12O cars of wheat were inspected in, the
largest number for some time; while 497
cars and 4, 400 bushels of corn, Isl cars
and $500 bushels of oats and seventeen
cars of rye were received. The shipments
were $4,000 bushels wheat, $4,000 bushels
corn, and $4,000 bushels oats. Vessels
were chartered to move $4,000 bushels
wheat, 10000 bushels corn and 10000
bushels rye.

Another racy divorce scandal came to

and alimony filed il the district court by
Mrs. Carrie Peyer against her hus-
band, Emil Peyer, prominent
merchant of this city. The
complainant sets forth that defendant is
thirty three years of age while plaintiff
has sean but twenty summers. They
have been married several years and the
union has been crowned with two children.
As ground for the com plant the plain
tiff alleges cruel treatment, it being
common pastime of the defendant
to fly into passion and accuse the plain
tiff of having committed adultery, while
as a diversion it is alleged that re would
place cooked revolver at her head and
threaten to blow her brains out. As she

and to the wretched existence of the de-
serted wife. One lived in affiuence; the
other was penniless and performed the
most menial work.
Allusion was made to the financial suc-
cess of Mr.. Potter and in conclusion he
urged that the allowance be granted.
Mr.. Sanborn then argued the case for
defendant. Counsel denied that the plain
tiff was resident of this state!or country
she had simply come here to sustain the
suit for money and intended to go back
again; she knew all along where the de-
fendant was and only waited until he &C
cumulated money, in order that she could
pounce down upon him; the statute of
limitation was bar to the action and on
the face of the complaint there was no
case. Counsel denied absolutely the
charge of adultery and said that it was the
adultery of Mrs. Potter that had driven
her husband out of England. She had
waited fifteen years and then brought
suit for damages as matter of specula-
ton. In view of this he could see no rea-
son why alimony shculd be granted. hTe
motion was taken under advisement.

THE POTTER DFVORCE.
The Case Argued by Counsel, and the Mat
ter Taken Under AdvisemenG.

The Case Argued by Counsel, aud the Mat
ter Taken Under Amusement.
The divorce case of Sarah Potter against
Samuel NJ. Potter. in which action was
brought on the grounds of desertion, came
before Judge Simons yesterday on a
motion for temporary alimony. It will be
remembered that the suit was brought last
June. and that the complaint laid bare a
social scandal of more than ordinary in
terest and magnitude. The alIega-
tions of the complaint constituted
a strange chapter in the history of domes-
tic life, and the revelations would form
the framework for an interesting romance.
1t is alleged that the defendant, Potter.
deserted his wife and five children in Eng
land in 1868, after ne had mortgaged his
property and applied tina proceeds to his
Individual benefit. Upon arriving in Amer
lea he came to st. Paul, where by industry
and enterprise he has accumulated a snug
fortune.
The peculiar feature of the suit is the
allegation teat he took unto himself au
affinity in this city-a lady of unimpaach-
able pectability-and the two hsys
since resided together as man and wife.
NJ. G. d. O'Brien, counsel for Mrs. Pot
ter, the English branch of the family, ad-
drefsed the court on behalf of the injured,
and Mr.. w. H. Sanborn appeared for the
defendant, Mr.. Potter.
In addressing the court Mr. O'Brien said
that the question at issue was whether or
not man could abandon his wife, and re-
pudiate his marital relations and escape
with impunity, on the plea that she had
not helped him to accumulate fortune.
Counsel referred to the peculiar relations

The Manitoba and Ontario Quarrel.

WINNIPEG, July 28.--The disputed boun-
Gary question at the Lake of the Woods is
eliminating into war between the prov
inces of Ontario end Manitoba. if it has
not already begun. Chief of Police Nc
Murphy and Manitoba constable were
arrested by Ontario specials and lodged in
jail, but were subsequently, released on
bail. An attempt was made on Tuesday
night to liberate Keys, an Ontario police
man, arrested for selling liquor Oh the
Indian reserve. 1t took q strong Manitoba
force TO guard the lookup, IS it was feared
the action sf Captain Brockton, the magis-
trate of the Manitoba government, will
precipitate q crisis. Il is under
stood that, in the event Of
trouble, the Manitoba authorities
will probably receive severe handling. as
greater portion Of the mill hands and
citizens are in sympathy with the Ontario
chief constable. The Manitoba provincial
police have received instructions to swear
in twelve special constables and proceed
to Rat Portage to-day. The lasest dispatch
from the scene of conflict says that three
Manitoba constables we're arrested last
night, one for receiving money under false
pretenses and two for disorderiy conduct
and two Ontario constabIes for disorder!y
conduct. The people nearly all favor
Ontario on account of Magistrate Brock
toms domineering conduct as magistrate.
If the constabIes come from Winnipeg to
assist Brockton, seventy-fve men working
in the mills will act as constables for On
tario. Hot work IS expected unless the
Dominion government takes charge of the
country.
