Ex-senator Mcdonald, of Indiana, Sur
renders to the Inevitable.
INDIANAPOLIS, June 21.-Ex-Senator
Mcdonald died at 1875 p. N. During
early morning. the unfavorable symp-
toms of several days ago reappeared
and the patients condition continued
to grow moro serious. He could re-
tain no nourishment whatever, and the
little remaining of the former strength
slowly ebbed away. But consciousness
never departed. In the afternoon the
Rev. Mr.. Milburn was sent for and ad-
ministered the sacrament. Then Mr..
Mcdonald called his family and init
mate friends about him, and calmly, as
if the occasion was one of the most ordi-
nary kind, gave directions for his funer-.
al arrangements she disposition Of
some Of his personal affairs. In the
presence of all he said he wished to give
testimony to his faith in God-saving
grace. Then he grasped each by the
hand and bade them goodby, saying
that he could see no more callers. His
auditors thus dismissed, the dying man
surrendered himself to the care of his
physician to await tlse coming of the in
evitable. He passed away very peace

his family, who were al in attendance

LARoRERS' RACE WAR.
Serieus Trouble Follows the Employ
x.a.4 oe r4.linns at St Iouis

Serious Trouble Follows the Employ
ment of Italians at st. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, June GA race riot be-
tween laborers employed by Contractor
Wolkley at the chain of rocks, where
the new water works are being con-
structed, occurred at 2 o'clock Sunday
morning, in which one Italian was dan
gerously stabbed, over twenty OF his
fellow countrymen driven from the
camp and their valIables and money
confscated by the gang of American
and other laborers making the attack.
The riot was primarily caused by the
admittance into camp of a lot OF Italian
laborers and the report that Contractor
Workley had gone to Chicago for more.
All Saturday a feeling of revolt against
the employment of Italian labor had
been gaining strength and bitterness. AS
soon as the laborers We're paid OF IN the
evening they congregated at saloon
just outside the city limits where they
remained gambling and drinking bad
whisky until the entire party Were
crazy drunk. About l O'clock Sunday
morning the party broke up and started
for their sleeping quarters. On the
way over some one suggested that they
Drive Out the D-d Dagoes."
The idea took like wildfre, and the
drunken crowd rushed into tents of the
sleeping foreigners, armed with sticks,
clubs, knives and whatever else they
could lay their hands on. The fight did
not last long. The Italians were at too
great disadvantage, and after a brief
resistance, they fled in ter ror, leaving
behind all their belongings. They car
ried away Catalize Francisco, one of
their comrades, fatally wounded by
stab in the breast. The Italians made
their way to this city where they re-
ported the matter to the police. Fran
cisco was taken to the city hospital
where his wounds We're dressed. At
the camp their departure was
Followed by Scene OF Piliage.
Their valises, bundles and packs were
broken open and the contents stolen. A
rigid investigation was Immediately be-
gun by the police, and several arrests
made. Italian Consul Dominica Gin
nochio is indignant over the attack on
his ccuntrymen, and will doubtles enter
into correspondence with his govern
ment on the subject. He has demanded
of the chief of police protection for the
Italians, and also an immediate official
investigation or the riot.

WHOLESALE MARKET REVIEW.
Trade during the past week has been fair and
shipments OF merchandise to the surrounding
towns were somewhat heavier than for the pre-
vi0ns week. The hay and feed market has been
rather weak and prices have declined about 81
per ton all around. Receipts have been rather
heavy, and, with the San Francisco market
weak, dealers were dubious about buying
heavily.
The bottom has dropped out OF the hop mar
ket in the East. and from the tone of sdvices
received from Eastern dealers, the outlook 10
anything but bright for those who are still hold
Ing onto their stocks. Local dealers arc not
willing to buy except at greatly reduced prices,
and farmers who are still holding on arc said to
be on the anxious seat
But little change was reported in the grocery
and provision market for the week Potatoes
remain stationary, but the prospects are brighter
than they were a short time ago. In the dried
fruit market. evaporated apples have been
steadily advancing
In the vegetable and fruit market trade has
been very fair. Apples are about out OF the
market aud but very little celery is to be had.
Onions have been steadily advancing, and or
ago, but the demand is fair
The butter and egg market Is moderately good
at unchanged prices. except that eggs are little
weaker.
The lumber, sash and door and general build
ing material market continues very dull. Quo
tatfons on lumber remain unchanged, though Il
il reported on good authority that common 1um-
Der has been selling as low as 81 per thousand.
