THE RICE CROP OF CHINA.

An Interesting Report by Commerce Al
Agent FOnsales of Saigon.
Advices from Saigon. forwarded to the state
department by Commercial Agent Fonsales, OF
that port, give the result OF this seasons rice
crop in China. The agent writes:
'.Since my last advices the harvest has come
to an end under suspicious circumstances, and
people continue to think that it is middling
one, very active demand from China,
caused by important and pressing require
ments from Japan, which country gets her rice
our rising rates, and it is almost impossible to-
day to foresee serious and early fall, and peo-
pie have lost all hope of seeing again the rates
that ruled at the beginning of The year.
This rise has had the effect OF stopping all
business with Euro pc, and the shipments which
have taken place within rather more than the
last month, and those which are still TO be
effected, are the outcome Of old contracts. The
German bark Else left on March ~ for Hamburg
with 81 So piculs of cargo rice, containing y
per cent. OF paddy. ami the English ste ! n,r
Cycle left on April for Port Said for orders,
with Il, 0l0: piculs OF cargo RICE also containing
20 per cent. OF paddy. The total quantity of rice
exported this yeaI, from January 70 April 10,
amounts to 3,057, 1854 piculs, as compared to
l,649,O pculs last year.
CAROLINA RICE.
The Charleston News and Courier has the fol-
lowing: Reports from the rice crop on differ
ent parts of the coast indicate that it is doing
remarkably well considering the clrcu instances
with which the planters have mad TO contend.
The harvest time will begin in a short time and
will relieve the planters of some of the anxiety
which naturally burdens them at the critical
period of the crop. AT present, however, they
are inclined to be hopeful of fine crop, pro-
vided no contingencies arise, which are not
looked for. The staple is heading up now. and
some with milk in it has been received. The
recent rains. it is said will help the planter out
wonderfully, provided they do not continue too
long,

KAUFMAN'S TRAGEDY.
Further Particulars OF the Array which Re-
suited in the Death OF One Man aud the
Fatal WoundIng of Another.
Correspondence of the Gazette.

Correspondence of the Gazette
KAUFMAN, TEX Aug. 9.-On yester-
day evening at about $50 O'Clock our
city was thrown into intense excitement
by the report OF pistols and the further
report that two men were shot near the
Central depot. Your reporter, together
with a large number of citizens, hurried
to the scene of the tragedy, and there
found one man dead and another severely
if not MORALLY wounded. The facts as
adduced this morning at the inquest
show that NJ. A. Mathews, alias
Charley, who is foreman OF the bridge
gang on the Texas Trunk railroad, and
one of his mtu by the name of Ben
Smith had little difference. Smith aud
another one of the men complained of
being sick at noon on the Sth and did
not go out on the works, but after the
gang left they went to town aud i'm
bibed pretty freely of red-eye.
When the gang returned in the even
ing Matthews went TO the car in
which the men slept and found Smith and
Clark sitting on q spring cot about TO
engage in game of cards. He told
them to get OF the cot as it was against
At this they moved of of the cot. Smith
asking Charley Mathew sat the same time
if he wanted anything further. A few
words eusued and Mathews struck Smith
twice with his fist when Miller Clark got
between them and separated them.
Mathews got out and went to his own
car and came back in the direction of
where Smith was standing, who in the
meantime had got out of the car and was
standing off the track, with dirk knife
in his hand, but fearing that Smith had
a gun he turned back, went into his car,
got his Colts a revolver and sgain
started to where Smith was, and when
near Smith ordered him to lay down his
pistol (Which he, Smith, had provided
himself with on leaving the
carr but he would not.
Mathews still advanced on him and
cursed and abused him, telling him that
he was too onnery to kill, and at the
same time striking him about the face
and head with his pistol. Smith drew
his pistol and fred at Mathews, hitting
him in the right breast with 38-caliber
pistol. Mathews then fred on him three
times, shooting him through the heart,
from the effect of which he lived but
about five minutes. Smith IS pistol
failed to revolve, or he would undoubt-
edly have killed Mathews. Smith shot
himself through the thumb, the ball go
ing in at the root OF the nail, going
through and cutting furrow through
his hand. Mathews walked back to his
car and summoned medical aid. While
his wound is very dangerous one, his
physicians, Drs. Hicks and Mulkey, say
that it is not necessarily fatal. The ball
was cut out about the small of the back.
At this writing he is resting quietly.
Smiths friends, who live in the Lone
Elm neighborhood, this county, near and
south of Foruey, were notified and came
and took charge of the corpse and will
inter il in the family burying groudd.
Smith 8 parents and friends are among
the best citizens of the county, aud the
affair Is sadly deplored. Mathews is an

Fort Tottcn Unprotected.

Major John Waugh of the Fl. Totten In
dian agency, was interviewed at Devils
Lake recently and stated that he did not
anticipate any trouble arising from the re-
ligious craze among his Indians, although
it is understood they have had secret meet
ings on the Cheyenne river and are aware
of the religious movement going on at
other points. The Indians have a claim
for some 10000 acres on their reservation
and will hardly care to run the risk of los
ing it by any outbreak. There are 1000
Sioux Indians on the Fort Totten reserva-
ton, and considerable apprehension exists
among women and the timid ones owing
to the removal of the garrison of the Fort.
The Fort has been abandoned and there
are now only about a dozen soldiers left
there and they will be removed rs 500 as
the stores are disposed of.

Hon. William McKendry in Fargo
Argus: l came in from the sanitarium at
Brainerd last evening, and will spend a
few days here. The sanitarium at Brainerd,
conducted by the Northern Pacific Bcnoh-
cial Association, is n of the grandest in
situations in this country. 1t shows that
the Northern Pacific is not a soulless cor
poration in the assistance it has given
this association. I hardly know what the
employees of this road would do without it.
DR.. w. Courtney was the surgeon in charge
while I was there and is entitled to much
praise. Thet two lady nurses-Miss Thomp-
son and Miss Linterhales, are kind and thor
oughly understand their business. Drug
gist Richmond is also very efficient. DR..
Mcpherson, the surgeon, who has perform
ed some wonderful operations, returned to
the sanitarium just as I was leaving. 1
was very much pleased with the institu-
ton.

Grand Forks Herald:-The Northern
Pacific has been obliged to press every car
it a beg, borrow or steal, into service
during the last month, N order to cope
with tho wheat business. A railroad Off
cial at Fargo is reported as saying that
the business of the Northern Pacific for
the month of November would exceed that
of any previous month in the existence of
the road-that the earnings would be fully
$3,0O0,0O0 for the month. The people in
Fargo, he said, could easily believe this
statement, for never were SO many heavily
loaded freight trains seen to pass through
the city as during this fall.
