Eight With Train Robbers.

SAN FRANCISCO, June ia
special from Visalie, says another
fight between Evans and SOntag,
the Coils train robbers,a land officers,
took place Sunday evening. Dur
ing the conflict Officer Jackson was
shot in the leg. Evans is probably
mortally wounded, if not dead at
this time. The wounded officer
left the scene. Evans was lying
on the ground. Sontag had es-
capped and taken to the hills, fol-
lowed by heavy fire, which, it is
believed, did not injure him, as it
was dark, and his retreating form
could not be seen. Sheriff Scott, of
Fresno, has been wired to send a
posse, and the officers will go from
this city to the scene of the con-
fiict.

Crop Reports From Cuba.

HAVANA, June 12.-Nery heavy
rains have prevailed during the
past week, which has caused more
loss of potatoes and corn in low
lands of Guines, and our markets
are being supplied from New Or
leans and New York. The i'm
proved price on sugar has given
planters of cane great encourage
ment for the latter and they are
planting new lands and taking adj
vantage Of frequent showers.
Many Of the large sugar estates
are enlarging their facilities by
putting in additional machinery
and new patent bagasse burners
and large contracts for cane grown
by colonists and near by farmers
have been made for the crop of 1894
at improved prices. Sugar making
for this season lis now closed and
the farmer is engaged in planting
and cultivating cane under very
favorable weather prospects. The
statistics of the crop of 1893
brought up to the 31st Of May
showed falling off of 10000 tons,
as compared with 1892, or twenty
per cent. Only few cargoes of
molasses have been shipped from
Cuba this season, as the products
have been reboiled and made into
molasses sugar at the refineries In
Regua, Matanzas, Cardenas, and
Sagua. Formerly the carrying of
molasses to Philadelphia, New
York and Boston gave employment
to quite a large fleet of sailing YES
sells.

Drowned Herself and Children.

EVANSVILLE, Ohio, June ia
most shocking occurrence took
place yesterday three miles south
of Fultonham when Mrs. Clara
Weaver, aged "A yours, drowned
her two children, aged 4 years and
six months respectively, and her.
self in the shallow water of Buck
eye creek. Mrs. Weaver left a
letter addressed to her husband
in which she stated that she had
often tried to nerve herself to the
terrible deed she was about to COM
nit, but that her heart had always
failed her. After stating that she
had finally made up her mind that
it would not be wrong, she thought
that she was going to the creek,
praying God to save her and her
two little darlings. The woman
was undoubtedly suffering from
temporary insanity.
