AN UNFAITHFUL WIFE.
Full Particulars of the Terre Haute Wife
Murder.
Special to the Sentinel.

Special to the Sentinel.
TERRE HAUTE, June 13.-The fact that
George Bishop shot and instantly killed his
wife Jennie" was telegraphed yesterday.
The killing was a cold-blooded murder. The
murdered woman was but eighteen years
old, and married Bishop the 31st of last
December. They resided on South Secoud
street, ana last night they quarreled and
she lett the house and went to her friend,
Emma Morey. Bishop suspected that she
was there and called twice during the night
to find her. His wife concealed herself be-
hind the bed, and the Morey woman threw
open the door and told him to look-that
his wife was not there. Soon after daylight
girl named Mcfarland, cousin of Bishop,
called at the house, and seeing Mrs. Bishop
told her husband.
4 Bishop soon entered the house and began
to talk to his wife, asking her if she was 60
ing to live with him again.
She said: mo, George, you have been too
mean to me. 1 will not live with you again"
They were sitting on the sofa, he holding
her. She broke loose from him and ran
across the room, be following.
"G-d d-n you, said he, you will never
live with any one else," and, Selling her by
the arm, he drew a revolver.
"Don't let him hurt me- En-" cried Mrs.
Bishop to En- Morey. The Morey woman
seized him by the arm, but she could not di-
vert his deadly aim, He fired, the bullet
entering her left temple. She fell in the
arms of the Morey woman dead. Bishop
stood for moment and looked at his dead
wife, then rushing out of the door he ran
south through the alley west of First street.
The Morey girls screamslof murder aroused
the neighborhood. Bishop by this time was
out of sight. The police were notified, but
the crime was communicated after the night
force had gone off daty and before the day
force went on. As soon as possible the force
was aroused and the pursuit commenced.
Crowds collected around the house. and the
front room, where the murder was commit
ted, was filed with people. The dead wo-
man lay where the Morey girl laid her on
the floor, covered with sheet.
Bishop has been known around town for
some time as a hard character. His wife did
not bear the best reputation when he married
her, and the killing was no doubt melted by
jealousy. Her name was Phipps before she
was married, and when the St. Clair house
was such a notorious place she was inmate.
She was arrested about year ago on sus-
picion of being implicated in the disappear
ance of farmer, who came here from near
Casey, Ill, and his body was found in the
river. Bishop was caught, and the investiga-
ton proves that jealousy was the cause of
the deed, and that Bishop had threatened to
kill her.

THE TRADE SITUATION
General Business Showing some Improve
ment Throughout the Country.

NEW YORK, June 1.-THE general trade
situation, as telegraphed Bradstreet's, has
been irregular, with the tendency toward q
continued moderate movement. This is due
in large part to the spring trade being over,
to farmers being busy in the fields, and to
the fact that the autumn trade has not vet
begun. Business al Duluth and Minneapo-
lis has improved on a favorable crop out
look and fair demand, as well as
at Chicago and Cincinnati, where the
total volume of spring trade trans
actions is reported to compare favorably
with 1885. General trade at st. Louis has
declined as at Pittsburg and Cleveland,
though the aggregate is believed to be as
large as in the earlier months of last year.
The late rains in the lower Mississippi Val
ley and southwest thereof, were needed and
business has been stimulated by them. Tue
demand for funds is conspicuous in proper
ton to the money Offering at Duluth,
Minneapolis, Omaha, st. Joseph aud ST.
Louis Mercantile collections are generally
slow. The New York stock market is irreg
ular. Manipulation alone has prevented
any decided break, but the continued pas
senger rate war in the Northwest is a heavy
load TO carry. Government bonds are steady
and investments firm.
Special kilograms TO Bradstreet's from
Minneapolis contradict the extreme state
menls OF the damage to the wheat crop in the
Northwest, made public on the Exchange
yesterday. The attitude of wheat exporters
with continued favoring prospects from the
new crop, backed by large stocks and fair re-
ceipts, has pushed prices down &c as COM
pared with the close a week ago. The situa-
ton is rather better than worse than
at the date of the Government
wheat crop report lately made pub
lie. There are no noteworthy changes
in iron or steel markets. The former
reflects the dull season of the year. The
general industrial situation has improved,
though there are still considerable number
of employees on strike at various manufac-
turing centers. OF the 200, 600 who received
concessions as to shorter hours with full pay,
one menth ago, Bradstreet's reports show
that less than 140, 900 retain these advantages,
one-half of whom are at Chicago, and one
sixth each at Cincinnati and New York.
The pressure of competition from ten-hour
workers is breaking down most of what is
left of the movement.
Dry goods are dull, but holders look to
higher prices and a good trade later in the
season. Wool is firm, but manufacturers
are buying spsringly- Next weeks London
colonial sales are of first interest to the trade
as a gauge to prices. The cotton crop is pro-
crossing finely in Louisiana, Mississippi and
Texas. Heavy rains in the Carolinas and
Georgia foreshadow trouble from grass.
Burley leaf tobacco is strong at Louisville on
the face of heavy receipts, while Tugs are
fractiopally higher. The weather favors
planting. Heavier sugar supplies, and
better beet crop prospect further depress
sugar prices. Coffee is lower and in small
demand, heavy stocks at ports and easier
rates of exchange.

MILITARY LAW DEFIED.
Military Company Refuses to Obey Order
Because of a Boycott.

Boston, June 9.-Not since the war has
there been such an open defiance of the mill
tary laws of the State as was seen at Stone
ham yesterday when half the members of a
military company refused to obey an order
of their Captain which conhicted with an
order issued by the Knights of Labor. 1t
was an aggravated case of INSTRUMENTATION,
which will end only in the arrest and court
martial of more than half Of Company H,
Sixth Regiment. The company was ordered
to start for the State muster grounds at South
birmingham this morning. The Cap
tain had arranged to have his COM
pany transported from the town to the
railroad station, two miles distant, by the
only line of horse-cars OF which the towG
boasts. During the recent labor troubles
the Knights of Labor placed boycott on
the railroad company and established an
Independent line of coaches. When the
company reached the cars this morning
more than half the members refused to take
their seats. The Captain was thunderstruck
at this open disobedience of his command,
and again ordered them to board the cars.
The men stubbornly remained standing in
the line. They explained in a rather sheep
ish manner that they belonged to the
Knights of Labor, and that they could not
enter the cars unless the boycott
placed on the railroad company
Dy the Executive OOmmStJee WAS re-
moved. They again refused to enter the cars,
and started to walk to the station. Some of
them chartered private teams on the way
and rode ahead of their commander. Official
action has not yet been taken, but there is
little doubt that the insubordinate members
will be arrested and court martialed. Mill
tary gentlemen are indignant at this fragrant
act of disobedience, and say that there is no
room in the State militia for men who recog-
