FOREIGN MARKETS.
Weather Broken and Unfavorable to
Harvest Work.

w
Harvest Work.
LONDON, Aug. 19.-The weather has
been broken and unfavorable to harvest
work. The market for wheat has been
mainly controlled by American news,
consequently prices are lower. In spite
of the bad weather, offers have not in
creased, but the demand is poor. The
quantity afioat has decreased, but the
promise of full crops has made the mar
ket Senitive more to weakness than to
strength Red winter, new crop parcels,
prompt delivery, were quoted at 20s I'd.
Spot business was slow. In flour there
was rather more inquiry for the desira-
BILE brands. Otherwise flour was quiet
and steady. In maize trade was dull anu
the tone easy. Mixed American was
not quoted. Barley was firm and inac-
tive Oats were shade worse on the
week.
UNSATISFACTORY WEEK AT MANCHESTER.
MANCHESTER, Aug. 19.-The market
during the past week was as .unsatis-
factory as during the previous week.
This was due to overwhelming offers,
which rendered futile every effort to raise
prices. AT the close, however. there was
somewhat more confident tone, because
the stronger price OF silver renders an
improvement in the Eastern limits prob
able. and also because OF the fact that
spinners are about to reduce their pro-
duction. In the meantime spinners are
refusing business except for prompt de-
livery. Cloth was somewhat difficult to
buy, and the Indian offers were large.
The independent attitude OF sellers will
induce better prices. South America has
been a fair buyer, and China has taken
several lines OF staple goods.

NEW YORK, Aug. ia reception was
given Emma Goldman tonight at the
Thalia Theater which nearly 5000 per-
sons attended. The affair was generally
tame, and the special force of detectives
had nothing to do.
Charles Wilfred Mowbray, the English
anarchist was also present and preceded
Emma Goldman by speech, in which
he eulogized her heroism and self-sacri-
fee. Speaking of the police. he re-
marked: "The police exist for Doodle.
They are here TO protect thieves OF asso-
ciated society from plumber OF the people
or workers"
When Emma Goldman came on the
platform there was a great burst of ap-
plause. Her speech was chiefly devoted
to a rancorous attack upon all who were
concerned in her prosecution, conviction
and Imprisonment. Imagine the prose-
cution Of a woman for talking" she be-
gan. Anarchy was prosecuted October
., 1893, in the court of General Sessions.
1t was really the right of free speech that
was prosecuted. The country to-day is
seeking aid Of the old continent to help
them get rid of anarchy. What do they
get TO neip tnen! Inc nateIul lrlSn ana
the deceitful English"
She then launched forth into invective.
She called Assistant District Attorney
Mcintyre a coward. In speaking of the
Judge before whom she was tried she
said: '.Judge MARITIME is not to be COM
pared with Santo or Henri, who were all
defenders of cause they believed in. 1
am with you again and again under the
old nag of anarchy and freedom"
The speech was received with en-
thusiastic plaudits by the minority por-
ton of the audience, and the meeting
soon after was brought to close.

knife which he carried, and exclaimed:
''Julia, your time has come" With this
he pushed the woman aside and sprang
to the bed. He madea vicious lunge with
the knife at the eldest child, boy of Z, /,
missing him and burying the knife in
the bedding. He struck again and again
at the children, but they had been awak-
ened by scream from the mother, and
he inflicted no serious wounds, although
the four were more or less cut. Mrs.
Hewitt threw herself between her insane
husband and children, and in endeavor-
ing TO catch his arms received bad stab,
the point of the knife entering the flesh
near the elbow. The downward stroke
of the knife continued and tore the arm
to the wrist. He then sprang through

thrown into panic by the tremendous
force of the wind, the furious downpour
of rain and almost impenetrable dark
ness. The Captain headed the vessel for
the beach, his intention being to run her
ashore. Before this could be done the
vessel sprung leak and began to
founder. AS she foundered her decks

Everybody was thrown into the water.

Mate Robinson, crazed with pain, picke
up grindstone and hurled it at his as

boatwonlan and laying her scalp open.
Shortly after this occurrence a boat
load of soldiers came out from shore, and
the officer in charge demanded the sur
render OF Robinson, but Captain Russell
refused to deliver him to the authorities,
and the soldiers went ashore vowing that
the steamer should not leave port until
the mate was surrendered, and that if the
vessel attempted to leave port she would
be fired on. Captain Russell went ashore
to see the American Consul, who advised
the Captain to surrender the mate to the
authorities, which the Captain did.
