MIYSEAroMs, MiNN., July 12.--The
Northeastern liiisr, in its issue to-mor-
row will say: Extreme dulluess and in-
action continue to characterize the mill
ing business, the present week
being even little more off
than usual. The production of flour by
the mills in this city will be compara-
lively light, Int fully large enough to
suit the views of our millers. On Tuesday
there were II mills in operation the
production averaging about ~, 900 barrels
per day, sgainst 1900 barrels last week,
the latter low figure resulting from the
week containing R holiday.
The llonr markets are leEs favorable
than week ago, there being compare.
lively no inquiry from abroad. They
were picking up 10 some extent at the
close of last week, but we're again greatly
depressed by the break in wheat in
Chicago.
The wheat stored in the Minneapolis
elevators, including the transfer elevator,
on July 10th, was 1,262,oOo bushels.
There were ABOUT 475,O00 bushels
in the mills, making the total
amount of wheat in store
in the city l,757, 900 bushels, against
l,575 ,OGU busheIa last week. The wheat
growth at 81. Paul is about 2lS, 900
bushels. The wheat in store in the
Duluth elevator Is $50, 1872 bushels.

Thnrsdsy afternoon, Andrew White, a
wealthy and well known farmer near

due to a desire on the part of his wife
aud children to get hold of his fortune
and spend il. lie communicated the fears
TO the warden of the institution, who
caused the patient to undergo rigid
medical examination, in which such con
elusive evidence was deduced that he
was declared h0pelassly insane. He WAS
continually invsnting meaus of escape to
execute vengeance upon hlb family nut
not until week ago did he succeed in
obtaining his liberty through the care
lesness of his custodians.
lie speedily made his way home, pur-
ohaaing large Smith 4 Wessnu revolver

night hs nat down on the front porch TIL
morning, when he called 10 his wiie. The
family, consisting Of the witA and two
children, aged 10 and Is years, rushed
at once toward the porch, r-joic4d
to hear the familiar voioe, aud auppOsng
that the husband and father had hren re-
l.ased from the asylum in the possession
of his faculties.
lte allowed each member of the family
to uareSs him, and q moment after, With
out the least agitation, drew from his
pocket the revolver, and looking his lie
in the face, said; "You want my money,
my fortune, damn you, take that I" aud
he sent bullet crashing through lei
brain, and she tell dead on the porch, as
ho turned and buried bullets in the
brains OF his boy and girl.

Mildletnwn Transcript.
All authorities agree that the peniusu-
lar peach crop of 1883 will he much
lighter than the estimates than were
made of it In May. The ".Iune fall"
was very heavy in many sections. Young
orchards and few old ones that have
been well cared for promise isir yield.
aud it may bs safe to say
that the crop batween the bays will
will exceed 5000, 900 baskets. Orchards
near the water courses make the best
showing tor fruit. Some time ago the
Transcript, after consulting reliable au-
thority on the peach crop, estimated that
800, 900 baskets would be slipped from
Middletown and Odessa, but We do not
think now that these figures will be
reached. Last season there were shipped
from the MiddletOwn station 5l2 carloads
or about $50, 900 baskets, aud in 1850,
615 carloads or about 800, 900 baskets.
In 1875, the great peach year,
there were shipped from Mid
dletown, Gl9, 1876 baskets IRON
Armstfong's, 179,23 baskets from
Giun's, l04, SG7 baskets ; making total
by rail of 903, 294 baskets from the Mid.
detowD district. The total shipments
over the Delaware railroad last year were
in round numbers 5000 car loads or
about 5000, 600 baskets. The total crop OF
the Peninsula was about 5000, 600
baskets. There will be no danger of q
glutted market this year, but, on tue
other hand, there is strong probability
that prices will rule strong for good fruit
all through the season.
