Comparisons as to foreign trade are
apt to mislead because imports last
year were extraordinarily small after
the big rush to anticipate new duties,
while exports were beginning to show
the phenomenal demand which made
the year quite the most remarka BILE In
our history. Hence the decrease OF u
per cent from New York in August thus
far Is not alarming, but sales Of pro-
duets yet to be forwarded are large and
have stopped any advance In the cur
rent rates OF foreign exchange. Nor Is II
at all dishearteninE that imports at
New York for the month thus far ex-
coed last years by nearly 100000,
since last year they fell below those OF
1895 by more than 100000.

The output of iron and steel no lon-
ger measures the demand. and the slip
ulated stoppages of furnaces in the
shenango and Mahonlng valleys has
raised the price OF Bessemer pig at
Pittsburgh to $40 50, and OF grey forge
to 50 25, without any certainty whatever
that such prices can be maintained
when the valley furnaces resume oper-
atoms, as some Of them are now doing.
The natural result is that the Pitts
burgh region Is by so much the less
able TO compete with the great Illinois
combination Just formed, which is get
ting all the business It can do and pro-
misses to turn out iron at less cost than
anY other works In the country. At all
points bars promise a larger output
than ever before and structural forms
and plates are in heavy demand, while
the tin plate producers have found
themselves Obliged to advance prices
about ten cents per box and the sales
are said to. be very heavy.

Wheat goes down three cents for the
week as II there were no foreign de-
nand coming, the obvious concert Of
farmers to keep back wheat, the crop
being certainly very large, tending TO
encourage a conspiracy Of traders
against them which thus far has en-
tire control of the market. Atlantic ex-
ports for the week have been 2.7Sl 1894

1t Is wise TO remember that the for

was concluding his address, what the
reasons of the presidency were for put

cause it was right and true. Mr.. Trum-

dent Woodruff would not give me the
honor for what did for the. people,"
DIR. KELLOGG's ADDRESS.
The sermon which preceded this an
nouncement was made by DR.. ]. H
Kellogg. He spoke of the hygienic dis
orders resulting from the use Of tea,
tobacco and liquors and of foods which
are difficult of digestion. stimulants
gave the body pleasant sensations
which had not been earned. The body,
he said, was the temple of God and
should not be defled or weakened.

careful to rear it of the best timber and
stone. but instead of seeking to build
up the body strongly men eat to please
the palate. unmindful of the result
That is why the American people are

also be remembered that the action of

a good or bad effect upon the brain.

on entering the elevator. Mrs. Levy
placed her hand upon her forehead and
complained of dizziness to her COM
panions. Before they could reply, the
elevator boy had closed the door of the
shaft, gripped his lever and the car
shot up with a bound. Almost at the
same moment Mrs. Levy reeled and
fell with her head out of the door. The
elevator was about an inch and q half
from the walls of the shaft and as
much as the solid walls would permit,
her head extended out There was a
crash, and the boy with a dexterCus
move, brought his car to a stop at the
first fight. 1t was too late. Mrs. Levy
lay lifeless on the bottom of the ele-
vatOr, her head crushed in. 1t had
been struck by the slight projection of

Way to Procure Reindeer.

Seattle, Wash, Feb. 1S.-News was
received here today from the expedition
sent by the government last November
on the revenue cutter Bear to relieve
the whaling feet imprisoned in the
Arctic ocean. The news was brought
by the steam schooner Lakme, which
left Dutch harbor, Alaska. Feb. 8.
The overland expedition, in charge
of Lieutenant d. II. Jarvis, left the
Bear Dec. 16, for TunnorOk, a native
village on the north shore of Cape Van
couver, and returned to Dutch HarbOr,
where she went into winter quarters.

Lieutenant Jarvis, Lieutenant Z. p.
Bertholf, Surgeon s. J. Coll and +.
Koltschof. guide, expected to proceed
to St. Michaels, which place they would
reach in about ten days after leaving
the Bear. From st. Michaels the over
land expedition will go to Teller sta
ton, where reindeer will be procured
with which to make the trip 20 Point
Barrow. On account of the ice, the
Bear was only able to get within so
miles of Sledge island, where it was

The Bear made the trip from Seattle
to Unalaska in ten days. including
delay of 20 hours, about 800 miles out.

SENATE FORECAST.
The Hawaiian annexation treaty will
receive the greater share of the sem
ate's attention during the greater part
of the week. The friends of the treaty
have succeeded in securing general as
sent from senators in charge of other
measures that the treaty shall be
given practically right Of way until a
vote can be secured which will practi-
cally decide its fate. The Corbett case
has right of way. but the probabilities
are that an arrangement will be made
early in the week whereby a time will
be fixed for voting on the Corbett case
and then the consideration of the
treaty will be allowed to proceed with
out material Interruptions.
SPEECHES ON CORBETT MATTER.
There are still some speeches to be
made in the Corbett matter, and it may
be proceeded with on Monday in case
no one is prepared to speak on the
treaty. Senator Pettus has not yet
completed his speech in opposition to
Corbett. Senators Burrows and Allen
also will make opposition speeches.
while Senators Hoar and Spooner will

The jury was composed of A J. An
dersOn, 7. c. Wangsgaard and David
Felt, all of Huntsville.
The inquest was held in the home
of Lars Larson. father of the dead
woman. where the body was carried
after the shooting. There was no lack
of witnesses, as several sleighlOadS of
people We're coming home from a meet

Cured. Some of the sleighs passed the
Douglass rig and remarks were passed

Lars X. Peterson. one witness, said
his sleigh had just passed the Douglass
rig at the Larson gate when he heard
the couple ouarreling. He turned round
Just in tine to see Douglass fire at the
woman, who was standing up in the
buggy. Douglass fired from about six
feet away from her; she pitched for
ward and slid to the ground.
Angus Mckay was in the sleigh be-
hind Peterson and looked around after
hearing the shot. He went up to the
man, but Douglass leveled his gun and
warned him back. Mckay reasoned
with him and suggested that the wom-
an was not dead. Douglass then al
lowed him to come up TO the woman.
Douglass said 10 him: That's my wife.
I was determined if ] could not live
with her, no one else should"
The woman's sister and brothers
came out and carried the body into
the house. Douglass fred five or six
shots in all.
EFFORTS AT SUICIDE.
Peter Geertson was a witness who
was positive the second shot was fired
in the direction of the body after it had
fallen. Three shots were fired with the
: aVowed intention of killing himself and
the two others went into the ground.
Douglass must have been performing
in front of the crowd for half an hour,
as Constable Grow was summoned from
the farther end of the town. Geertson
testified that Mrs. Douglass was stand

woman had gone down to Olsen's to get

PREMEDITATED MURDER.
Christian Wangsgaard heard Doug
lass say: u came here for a purpose,
and have accomplished it. I am cap
tain of this camping ground, and I
mean to die here"
The gun was a repeater, single bar
rel. the shot No. 6 and of somewhat
octagonal shape. A gaping wound was
made just under the jaw, but the face
was very little disfigured.
AS yet the prisoner is not represented /
by counsel, but his father called at the |
Jail yesterday and discussed the sub /
ject. Douglass was quite anxious for
news from Huntsville yesterday. He is I
hopeful for the best, though quite I
nervous, and smokes cigarettes inces- /

I wish it was me in place of her"
was the burden of his talk made to a
Herald man last evening. The mans
predicament has made the subject of
executions much discussed. The law
provides that they shall be within the
outer walls of the states prison, under
the direction of the sheriff of the coun-
" where the crime was committed.
They may be either by shooting or
hanging.
Douglass preliminary hearing is set
for Friday at O'Clock, before Justice
