Suicided After Killing the WRONG Man.

JACKSON, Mich, Feb. About eleven
O'Clock Monday night James Foy, a farm
hand who has been in the employ of Daniel
Holcomb, son-in-law of the murdered
Jacob ID. Crouch, shot, and, it is supposed
mortally wounded Elmer Schiller, at Union
City, about forty miles west of jackson.
EXclaiming that he had shot the wrong man
Foy 1T once made his escape. A Deputy
Sheriff was dispatched from here Tuesday
to the Crouch farm to arrest Foy, who shot
and killed himself five minutes before the
arrival of the officer. Just what FOy's OBJ
ject was in killing a man at Union City is
not known, unless it was to put out of the
way some one who knew something about
the murder and whom he had reason to fear.

ST.. LOUIS, Feb 1.-THE PostDispntch

of the fruit crop in the Mississippi Valley,
which it summarizes Us follows:
Illinois Peach crop entirely killed; cher
ries badly injured; blackberries and black
raspberries killed to the snow line; pears
touched to some extent but red raspberries
Strawberries, apples and other fruits in good
condition.
Alabama-The winter has been SO severe
as to almost completely ruin the fruit crop,
and gardeners have turned their attention
To cultivating vegetables.
TeXas-Peach and other fruit buds are in
splendid condition; only, MS in Mississippi,
fears are felt for frostS in the spring.
Arkansas part of the peach crop is
injured; Strawberries promise splendidly
and other fruits are in good condition with
the exception of grapes.
Kentucky crop severely blighted.
Mississippi buds all right, but fears
felt of wet lrosts in the spring.
Louisiana Prospects better than they
have been for six years.

The Advance in lea.

New York. Feb. 4.-There is good
deal of activity in the tea trade at adj
vanced prices. The movement has been
stimulated by the formation OF an exchange
q month or two ago, at which heavy trans
actions are made daily. Since December
the price of Japans has gone up six per
cent and blacks about three cents. The
crop last year was very short, and the pro-
posed law to prevent the sale of aduterated
teas, OF which there are probably eight mill
ion pounds on hand, has led large holders
of teas to believe much higher figures will
rule until MAY.
