of Cavite, Philippine Islands, have been
shot.
Smith Culbertson, so years old, of Bir.
mingham, Iowa, a prominent man in that
town. committed suicide by jumping into
deep well. The cause was dependency
and ill-health.
One of the first Americans to step ashore
at New York from In Tourainc from
Havre was Nine. Demitri Callius, widow
of the late p. T. Barnum and now mar
ried to Count Cullias. an Italian nobleman
of ancient lineage, but not wealthy.
Provided satisfactory arrangements can
be made with the Canadian Pacific Rail
road large ore smelter and refinery will
be established at Vancouver, B. c., with a
capital of at least 81 100000.
The Secretary of War has announced
in a general order that the campaign

against the Apaches in Arizona. 1885 to
1886, and against the Sioux in South Da-

Robert and her husband, Morris Cava-

conspired TO rob her of her possessions,
and with having kidnapped her and caused
her to be held prisoner for four long
months in local private insane asylum.
Years ago Mrs. Cavanaugh took in
washing. She saved her money and in
vested it in the then Mission sand wastes.
When the city grew and her property be-
came valuable she was in comfortable cir.

prosperity, she recently Won quite snug

good fortune her troubles began for her.
Her husband refused to work, and her
son induced her to execute deed of trust.

BIG CATTLE SHIPMENTS.
Heavy Movement to Market from the

Heavy Movement to Market from the
South Dakota Ranges.
A dispatch from Belle Fourche says
that during the past week cattle ship
ments made from the Black Hills ranges,
largely to Chicago, have been unusually
heavy. Prices are slowly advancing, and
the cattlemen are now hopeful that long
before the close of the shipping season
prices will be about what they realized
last year.OAn idea of the magnitude of
the cattle industry may he Cleaned from
the few shipments made last week.
There were ten train loads of about 800
head each sent from Brennan and Belle
Fourche. This was followed next day by
six train loads, and on Saturday nine
more were shipped. Twenty-seven en-
gines and 290 cars were required TO move
these three days shipments of Black
Hills cattle. And this was only the be-
ginning OF the season.
A dispatch from Fort Pierre says: I'm
less there is a decided falling off in the
market for cattle at once there will be
still heavier shipments. Large shipments
will be made by c. X. Howard, w. b.
Stearns and j. b. Binder, besides smaller
shipments 10y number OF others. Louis
La Plant, who went to the southern range
early in the s,ason for cattle to place on
the Missouri range, returned last week
with 9, 400 head which he secured in Texas
and Arizona. 1t is little later than
Texans are usually placed OH the range,
but they will find plenty of feed and no
doubt come through the winter in good
chanp

r. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review Of
Trade says: There is still no distinct im-
provement in business, although condi-
Nons favor it. Confidence slowly rises =,
speculative buying of materials for future
use continues. imports Of gold do not
cease and the Bank Of England has not
tried to check them by further advance in
sates, as the weight of the demand now
falls on France. But an enormous busi-
ness Is held back until the future is more
clear. Maine's great majority had no
such influence as many anticipated from
q verdict less emphatic. To many minds
nothing an eastern state can do in con-
test represented as sectional gives sufIl-
cient assurance how tho western and
southern states shall decide. Tho indus
try showing an increase in working force
Is the cotton manufacture, restriction of
output having secured more healthy de-
mand for some goods. The maturity of
large wool notes Is said to be the cause of
selling and prices do not rise, though
they are more nearly maintained. There
has been fair week in dress goods and
better demand for cloakings but the heavy
failure of Philadelphia firm tends to
restrict operations.
Failures for tho past week have been
BIZ in the United States against 2lB last
year and SO in Canada against Y2 last
Year.
