More steamers for Alaska.

San Francisco, Aug 1.-Two steam
ers will sail for the north today with
their carrying capacity taxed to the ut
most. The Umatilla will be sent to
Seattle by the Pacific Coast Steamship
Company, and the South Coast will
also be dispatched. The Umatilla will
take away about 400 passengers and
transfer them to the City of Topeka at
some Puget sound port.
Although the South Coast is not yet
loaded she is very low in the water,
and seafaring men say that with her
load in rough sea she will have great
difficulty in getting through.

QUIET At DE ARMlTT's MINES.
Strikers Claim Large Dosertion Has
Occurred There.

Strikers Claim a Large Dosertion Has
Occurred There.
Pittsburg, Aug. 12.-The striking
miners camped at Plum Creek claim a
large desertion has taken place from
tie De Armitt mines, and that the
working force is too small to dig coal
enough 10 supply the water works of
Pittsburg. The officials of the New
York & Cleveland Gas Coal Company
claim they are working 200 men, the
same number that is usually at work
following pay day.
There was no disorder over the pay
ment Of the men, although both strik-
ers add deputies expected trouble. The
total amount paid over was $1,000.
The diggers received from $25 to $46
for two weeks pay. Many say they
had little difficulty in earning $3.50 a
day, and they do not see how the strike
can benefit them. The company dis
charged 30 foreign workmen, and last
night all of them took up quarters in
the strikers camp.
1t is claimed number Of the West
moreland Company miners have offered
when the strikers arrive.
Fifty deputy sheriffs were transferred
from Plum Greek to Turtle Creek this
morning to see that order,is preserved
while the diggers at Oakhill are being
paid. All but few of the Oakhill
miners joined the strike two days ago,
and Superintendent De Armitt says
they will not be paid.
The proposed march on the Spring
Hill mine of Alexander was not made
this morning on account of heavy rain.
The Labor Tribune has received a let
ter from a correspondent at Birming-
ham, Ala, stating that agents are at
work there procuring negroes to take
the place of striking miners in the
north. The latter say smallpox is
prevalent among the colored people in
that section, and asks that the author
tiles be warned of the danger of spread
ing the disease through the north by
permitting the importation of negroes.
The injunction secured against the
miners officials at Buenola was served
Oh President Dolan when he stepped on
the train at that place last night, but
he disregarded it and addressed large
meeting near the mine a short time
later. This morning Judge Collier
extended the injunction to make it in
,lude Is additional defendants.
A body of strikers marched to Can
nonsburg this morning. and are now
encamped near the mines which are in
operation. Operator Kirk says if the
strikers interfere in any way with his
men he will have the entire party ar
rested.

HER BOY WAS UGLY.
Quitman, Georgia, Mother Commits
Terrible Crime.

A Ouitman, Georgia, mother mm1ts a
Terrible Crime.
Quitman, Ga, Aug. 11.-Fishermen
discovered the body Of 6-year-old boy
floating on the surface of pond near
this place and later identified it as the
son of Mrs. Idella Powell Banks, a
widow, owning farm just outside of
Quitman.
The actions of the mother when noti-
fed of the discovery aroused the suspi-
cions of the coroner and she was subse-
quently arrested and placed in Jail.
Here she was visited by minister, to
whom she confessed having murdered
her child. The reason she gave was
that he was too ugly to be permitted to
live, and was a constant source of en-
barrassment to her on that account.
She said that she walked by the pond,
and when she tried to push him in he
resisted with all his feeble strength.
She broke down completely in Jail, and
says she wants to be hanged as soon as
possible. The child's face was dis
figured by birthmark.

A Grewsome Discovery.

Valley, Neb., Aug. ia grading
company at work near here exhumed 19
skeletons. All the bodies were in a
good state of preservation, and were
evidently buried with their clothes on
and without collins. Five were fe-
males. The bodies had probably been
in the ground 15 or 20 years, but no
resident of the locality can recall any
burying ground located here, nor does
rumor relate Of anything in the past
that will account for the presence of
the skeletons. The bodies were covered
with only few feet of earth, and were
placed in large trench. Apparently
the skeletons are those Of white people.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Downing, Hopkins q Company's Review
(
of Trade.

OF Trade
The short sellers of wheat have but
single argument left to support their
views. viz: The admitted fact that the
wheat crop Of this country will be at
least 100, 900, 600 bushels larger than
that of last year. The current news
during the week has been extremely
bullish and developments have materi-
ally strengthened the position of spec
ulative buyers. Probably the most inn
portant announcement was Beerbohm's
estimate placing the European shortage
compared with last year at 224, 600, 900
bushels. This has been emphasized
and confirmed by the active cash de-
mand and enormous sales for export.
An additional aid in enhancing values
has been furnished by the farmers
stacking their wheat at a greater ex-
tent than usual. Should the coal min
ers' strike continue fortnight longer
it will prove powerful, although un-
natural, factor in enhancing values,
and in all probability result in more
serious congestion OF the market for
September delivery than has prevailed
for July contracts. The promise of an
abundant wheat crop in America, the
absence of competition in supplying
the requirements Of importing coun
tries, and the consequent increased ex-
port demand for American wheat, all
tend to benefit the American farmer.
Wheat will prove profitable purchase
on all reactions and the general tend
ency is toward still higher range Of
values.
The American visible this week shows
decrease Of l64, 900 bushels, and now
totals 17,650,000 bushels against 49,
429, 900 year ago. There is much to
be said regarding both sides of the corn
market, but after all is said it is still
fact that values are extremely low-due
to panic and overproduction. The
growing crop is not yet assured, and
with the enhancing values ruling for
wheat compared with producing years,
the increasing activity in general trade,
corn must participate to greater or
less extent in the general Improvements,
according as the crop promise to be
above or below that of last year. In
any event, present values promise to be
we'll maintained, and there is little
if any inducement for speculative short
selling. Should the growing crop meet
with any mishap much higher values
will quickly obtain.

Suicidal Epidemic In Paris-Morgue
Full to Overlooking With the Dead.
London, Aug. 10.-A long spell of
hot weather was broken by severe thun-
der storms. on Thursday and Friday, in
which several persons were killed and
a number of buildings were badly dam
aged and others sustained lesser in
juries. The thermometer registered 80

beat was Is deg. above the average,
which haspnly thrice been reported
during the last quarter of a century.
There were over 200 prostrations from
the heat treated in six London hos
pitals on Thursday. There was only
one-third of an inch of rainfall in July,
the crops are seriously threatened and
the experiences of the 1896 water
famine in the East End of London are
already looming up.
The heat which has been unusually
prolonged, has affected the London
death rate. There were 2.023 deaths
last week, of which 1850 were chill
dren, bringing up the death rate to
1875 per 1000. There were many sun
strokes, and general discomfort was ex-
perienced. The judges and counsel in
+ the law courts doffed their wigs and
gowns.

Paris, Aug. 1o.-There has been a
veritable epidemic of suicide in Paris
for some weeks past, the recent tropical
heat adding to the number of cases.
The tragedies commenced with the self
distraction on July of the four young
dressmakers in the Poissoonoire quarter
of Paris, who suffocated themselves in
a small room with the fumes of char
coal, dying together. Since then al
most daily one or more women have
committed suicide, and the self murder
of men has been equally numerous.
The bodies of men are found daily hang
ing to trees in the Bois de Vincennes.
In one alley of that park alone six
bodies of suicides were found during
the past week, and the morgue is SO
full of dead bodies found in the river
Seine that there is no further room for
