INDIAN CANNIBALS.
EATING THEIR OWN CHILDREN.
A Winter of Unusual severity in
Labrador-The Attic Ice Lowers
the Temperature Below Freez'
ing Point.

From time to time reports have been re-
ceived of distitution and suffering among the
fishermen Of Labrador, and last fall the Gov
eminent was compelled TO send two relief
steamers to Sandwich Bay. Il was not unit
a few days ago, however, that any idea was
had Of the terrible state of affairs prevail ing
in that inhoepitable region. In fact since
last November Labrador has been lost land
| At that time the dread Arc ic winter set in
and since then all commune alton has been
cut off between Newfoundland and the main
land cost.
The flow Of Arctic ice this season has been
unprecedented, and at present M sses of drift
ice and bergs mountain high are piled up
against the coasts extending some 80 miles
out at sea. This mass of frozen water has
reduced the temperature far into the ,untry
| far below freezing, and the SHOWS of winter
show no signs of disappearing. Belle Isle
itself did not open this year until June %,
and heavy snow and sleet storm was expe-
riencsd on the 221.
Lately party of ten starved and half dead
creatures arrived at St. John from Cape
Bauld, where they had been d scovered by
some countrymen. They came from Quebec
and Indian hsrbor, and have been month
on the way to seek assistance. Fur of them
are half-breeds, five French Canad ans and
| one Swede.
They say that for nine continuous months
winter has reigned uuinterruptedy. Thai
just as the native ice was about to break ur
the Arctic ice came down upon them and shut
| up the coast, permitting no in ress or esress.
The harbors full Of packe ice have sunk most
| Of the larger vessels and permitted no fl fishing
| while the low temperature prevented the frost
| from leaving the ground and it W IS impossible
| to plant any crops. The fish oil factories have
been idle for ten m onths past and thu stock Of
| oil has been exhausted for fuel. There Is no
| food; the inhabit 'nts are Living upon their do
nestle animals, and among the Indians the
state of affairs is horrible. RINK cannibal.
ism has been resorted to by tho savages,
stealing others children and devourng them
No attempt is made to stop them, as the ig-
| norant white settlers do not know how long
| they will be able to hold out before resorting
to such crimes.
These men state that there is not barrel
of fl bur left in the country and they were ap>
pointed to pr. cure assistance. Help must
come at cnce or the country will be depop!
ulatei. The Ottawa Government was
promptly notified and assistance will he
pushed forward overl nj.

THE STATE OF TRADE.
Summary of Conditions Reported
from the Principal Business


NEW YORK, July 17.-Special telegrams
to Bradstreets this week, while repea ting the
| favorable trade features noted week ago,
report quite general hardening of domestic
money markets and a widespread improve,
| ment in mercantile collections. At few
cities autumn buying has begun, notably
Louisville, where takings are said to be large.
| The unfavorable wheat crop prospect seems
to d!scourag, speculation on the New York
Stock Exch ange, and the mporary stop
age of hostilities am 'ns the granger roads
was not sufficient to put prices up. Some &C
tivity and strength was developed in the
| trunk line stocks on the improved earnings
of Erie. Transactions were, 1,077, 900 shares,
aga nst I, 247 900 shares last week. Money is
IN fair supply on call at from to 8 per cent
Exchange is weak.
Now that the domestic wool clip has beer

shortage as compared with last year. Con,

with the greater share Of the decrease in
Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia, Pennsylva-

are no higher. Domestic quotations are I'M

sggregating $4,000 tons monthly out o.
1861 900 tons the total monthly production
anthracite and bituminou' irons is accounted
for by the condition Of the rail industry.
| The wheat markets have been quieter with
prices fluctuating within a moderate range
7 damage to the spring wheat is currently
estimated at from ~ to 90 per cent, earlier
reports having been exaggerated. The result
IS to leave strong undercurrent of feeling
hat higher range of prices for wheat is
likely to prevail during the coming crop year
than has been quoted for two years. This l.

the United Kingdom, Russia, India, Austria

above. The condition Of the cotton crop in
the southwest continues excellent The to-

Gladstone will RESIGN.

The English elections as finally summed up
give majority Of LIZ against Gladstone's
Home-rule bill. The Tories have majority
of 40 over the Gladstone Liberals, ard a
majority of 4S over the Gladstone Liberals
and Liberals Unionists combined. With the
Liberal factions reunited and supported by
the home-rule vote there would be ma jority
of So over the Tories. While the Tories are
the strongest faction they are nevertheless a
minority, but so close to a m u ority that the
support of the Harrington Wings would
probably give them working majority.
While parties are subdivided as they are, it
will however, be impossible to form a strong
or durable Ministry, and the days of the
coming Parliament will probably be few and
full of trouble.
Gladstone has decided to resign and Lord
Harrington has decl ned to join coalition
ministry
