MURDEROUS BRIDEGROOM.

Turned a Wedding Feast Into q Shoot
ing Party.
San Francisco, Sept. 30.-Yesterday
afternoon Frank Carnivalli and Flo
mena Campologni were married.
Shortly afterward the bridegroom
fired into the wedding party, seriously
wounding one of the guests and scatter
ing the others in all directions.
The wedding party had adjourned
from the church to the house of the
newly married couple to join in the
wedding feast. The health of the
bride was toasted, then that OF the
groom. The wine cup passed freely
and the merry jest. Things were 60
ing along famously when George Zitka
did something which displeased Carni-
valli. He also said something intend
ed to be funny, but Carnivalli failed to
see the joke and from the pistol pocket
of his wedding garb produced big re-
volver. Leveling it at Zitka, he pulled
the trigger twice.
The doors were not big enough to
give exit to the affrighted guests as
hastily as they chose to leave. The
bride and her female friends tainted.
A policeman arrived at this juncture
and arrested Carnivalli for assault with
intent to commit murder, while Zitka
was taken to the receiving hospital,
where it was found that he had been
hit by both bullets, one having entered
his right side, the other SCATTERING his
right wrist.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Eowniug, Hopkins Co.'s Review OF
Trade.

Portland, Or, Sept. 30.-The wheat
situation is gradually hardening, ana
there is a steady increase in confidence
along the line. Operators who were
not inclined to take the buying side
three weeks ago, when prices for De-
cember were around Sc, have during
the past week become convinced thae
the market has intrinsic value, and have
bought at Gle and above. Since the
first of September prices have advanced
nearly 10 cents. 1t has been mainly
owing to the situation being the strong
est in years. In fact, the position OF
the wheat market as to the demand and
supply has not been as strong in years.
There is everything favorable Tor
higher prices.
Liverpool led the market last week,
and since the first of the month prices
there have advanced faster than here.
Traders have waited for years for the
foreigners to take the initiative on the
buying side, and, as they have accept
ed about all the cash lots offered, and
also bought futures both IN chicago
and at the seaboard, the bull feeling
naturally increased, and prices here
advanced about 5 20, and at Liverpool
a trifie more. Foreigners have lighter
supplies than for years, and within the
past three weeks have largely replen-
ished them. There is also sharp de-
mand for all the cash offerings at Chl'
cago, millers and elevator men buying.
About all the hard winter has been
sold, and Kansas City parties, who
have sold a great deal in the past, are
now Offering none, and hold the wheat
at a price that prevents Chicago buy
ers from getting it. At Galveston
there is about 900, 900 bushels, await
ing shipment, but as steamers are
scarce there is delay in the export.
All the ocean.room at the Atlantic
ports has been engaged up to about the
first of the year, and rates to Liverpool
advanced AID from New York.
We are exporting at the rate OF over
$500, 900 bushels wheat and -four per
week which according to the most care
full estimates of supplies will take all
our surplus before the end Of the pres
emit cereal year.
From January 1 to September II
they aggregate 100000 bushels
and exceed last year for the same time
II, 900, 900 bushels. We are shipping
to Europe more than any other ooun-
try and will continue in the lead for
months so that gold will come this way
from Europe freely. The American
visible supply Of wheat shows de-
crease of $40, 900 bushels from last.week,
now totaling 4S, 715, 900 bushels.

TO DEPORT NEGROES.
A Spanish Scheme to Prevent Future
Trouble.

Havana, Sept. 3O.-The Spanish
press of Havana is engaged in heated
editorial discussion of the proposition
to expel from the island all Cuban ne
groes, as soon as the triumph OF the
Spanish in the present struggle shall
be assured, and will follow up this step
by encouraging white immigration
from the poorer provinces of the island.
The negroes would be allowed to vol.
unfairly embark for ports of the United
States and Central and South America,
but failing to so leave after reasonable
notice, would then be forcibly trans.
ported in government ships to the coast
of Africa. With their departure from
Cuba, it is alleged, the future peace of
the island would be assured.
Ell Commerce., conservative Span
ish organ, defends the black man and
maintains his right to remain here un.
molested while certain liberal papers
give tacit approval to the proposition
for his expulsion. Negro labor will
be indispensable, the Commerce. de-
clares, in the agricultural construction
of the island after the war shall be fin
ished, and the blame for the present
revolt, it says, cannot be laid exclu-
sively at the black mans door, those
really responsible beng his Cuban and
alien leaders, whites and mulattoes.

A Daring HOJd-Up.

Charleston, W. Va, Sept. pa
daring holdup occurred on the Short
Line railroad between Sewall and Cliff
Top, eight miles from this city, yester-
day afternoon. Joe Thompson, who
came from the West about year ago,
learned that w. L. Wilson, bookkeeper
and paymaster of the Longdale Com
pany, at Cliff Top, was going up the
road in the afternoon to pay off the
men. When the train reached a lonely
spot in the mountains, Thompson, who
had boarded the train, held up those in
the engine at the point of revolver.
He grabbed the money from Wilson
and jumped from the engine Wilson
shot at Thompson. Thompson re-
turned the fire, shooting Wilson IA
tally. Thompson made good his es-
cape, and Wilson is dying. A posse is
in pursuit, and lynching is expected.

A Terrible Crime,

Newport, Ark, Sept. 30.-The dead
body of a girl was found in the river
near Jacksonport two weeks ago, and
her identity until today was mystery.
Today, it was learned she came from
Foromsa, Van Buren, county, and that
just before election day had nineteen
men arrested for assault. When the
case came up. her testimony was so
horrible that officers doubted her state
ment, and discharged the prisoners.
Since the finding of the body, evidence
has been secured which reveals the
truth of her statement, and show that
she was outraged and afterward MUIR
dered by some of the men whose arrest
she had caused.

Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, Of Marshfield, Mo-,
writes: "For six years 1 have been .
sufferer from scrofulous affection of
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, D. c.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and St. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to q re-
tnoval of the gland. At this critical mo-
ment friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside a deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gon., though I am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had only used your SIS. long ago,
I would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $I5o."
This experience Is like that of all Who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. SIS. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root of
the disease and forces it out perma-
nently.

Being Lynched.
Cleveland, O., Sept. 80.-Just before
dark last night Edward Valid, ship
carpenter, narrowly escaped lynchlne
at the hands of an infuriased mob Of
West Side citizens.
Valid came home under the influence
of liquor, quarreled with his wife and
finally struck her. Their 14-year-old
son. Edward, seized his fathers arm
and entreated him to be quiet, where
upon the brute became enraged and
threw the boy down the stairway lead
ing to the street, distance OF twenty
feet. The little fellow rolled out OF
the open doorway into the street, with
ing in commissions and frothlng at the
mouth. DR.. Turner was summoned to
attend the boy, and crowd quickly
collected to revenge the brutal outrage
The Rev. John McHale, Catholic
priest, fastened to the scene and adj
ministered the last rites to the dying
boy.
Meanwhile the crowd increased to a
mob, which was goaded into fury by
the sight of the helpless child strug-
Cling in convulsiois on the pavement
until the clamor nor revenge swelled
into an ominous roar. Forty men
forced their way into the house to drag
out the inhuman father and others
were dispatched for rope. Valid had
locked himself in a bedroom. The
door was broken open and the brute
dragged into the street, fighting des-
perately. The police arrived before the
rope appeared. The mob gave battle
to the police determined not to allow
VALID to escape them.
During the scrimmage the prisoner
broke loose from those who were hold
ing him and ran away down an alley
toward the river. The mob was close
at his heels, and when the fugitive
reached the river he plunged into the
cold, muddy water of the Cuayhoga
and was drowned. The boy will die,
and the wife's injuries may also prove
fatal.

opera house, erected at cost Of $780,

seven years ago, is tonight mass Of
ruins, as result of a disagreement
among the stockholders, and the city,
with population of 5000, is without

ray has been decreed by the supreme
court to be the owner of the building.
There were numerous judgments for
mechanics liens, and the Grand Opera
House Company was given the ground
under mortgage. The company re-
fused to buy the house at any price,
and also refused to sell the ground,
and this morning Murray put a big
force of men to work to tear down the
handsome building, and tonight little

suicide today by taking poison. She

his arrival, administered an emetic,
which saved her life. The would. be
suicide seems to have mania for self

tried to end her life, once by poison
and once with pistol. She gave as
reason for today's attempt that her
grandmother no longer loved her, and
would not reply to letters sent her by
