Sentenced for Murder.

Washington, April S.-Privates Edward
NJ. Brodie and James +. Coffeey, Troop C,
Third cavalry, were recently convicted by
court martial at Manila of murder and
sentenced to imprisonment at hard labor
for life. 1t appears from the record, copy
of which has been received at the war de-
partment, that the accused murdered a
harmless native boy, 10 years old, whom
they met on the highway. Major General
Wheaton, commanding the department of
northern Luzon, approved the sentence,
which will be duly executed at Bilibid
prison, Manila.

More OIL Wells.

Beaumont, Tex, April s.--The sixth
gusher oil well has been added to the
Beaumont field, and it is reported to be the
finest we'll yet struck. The we'll is lO4O
feet deep and shows a pressure Of 80
pounds to the square inch, which is said
&c exceed the San Lucas gusher, 100 feet
away, and which has hitherto maintained
the record Of being the greatest producer
in the world The oil pool where it was
struck is only 40 feet deep and is resting
on bed of sulphur. These facts were as.
certained by the drillers. After the oil was
struck the pipe was permitted to sink un-
til it struck the bottom, and It rested after
40 feet had gone down. The drillers then
bored four feet into what they say is a
bed OF pure sulphur. In two other g,ishers
sulphur was struck before the oil was
reached. President Gilbert says that one
day next week the valve will be opened to
test the flow.

the palace, muezzin from Aleppo, pos

effect on those present. The sultan, who
had taken few steps from the throne, and
all other Moslems, holding their hands be-
fore them, joined in the duplication of the
muezzin. Afterward the band resumed
playing and the reception was continued.

TRADE REPORT.

Bradstreet's report for last week il
as follows:
Speculative activity, seeking express
sion In the markets for securities. ce-
reals, raw cotton and some hog pro-
ducts, has rather tended to obscure the
general distributive trade which has.
however, been temporarily disturbed.
IN retail lines at least, by widespread
unfavorable weather conditions. While
the general tendency Of this specula-
ton has been bullish, a marked excep-
ton was that furnished by bearish
movements in wheat and corn, which
have lowered the levels OF these pro-
ducts for the time being. The general
consensus is that retail eastern trade
has been to certain extent curtailed
by rains in the cities and by bad roads
In the country districts, but as above
stated. these are really only temporary
phases. and the general outlook, alike
as to crops and to spring trade az a
whole. Is In q high degree encourag-
ing.
Western agricultural implement men
complain Of tardy deliveries, which il.
however, largely true Of the trade % q
whole. and some manufacturers are
buying as far ahead az December next.
Eastern shoe manufacturers are hur.
rying shipments to somplete spring or
ders. and the aggregate for the week
was again In excess Of the previous
week and last year.
Weather conditions, except in the
northwest, have been rather unfayora-
BILE to planting and ground prepara-
lions. This 10 especially true In the
south, where cotton planting is retard-
ed. On the other hand, heavy SHOWS in
Kansas and Nebraska and no less heavy
rains in the central west have benefit
ted the winter wheat prospects, which
Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri are re-
porting excellent. Ohio's wheat condi-
ton shows marked improvement over
last year. In California weather con-
ditions have not been favorable and
deciduous fruits have been hurt by
frosts.
Wheat (including hour) shipments
for the week aggregated 4.698, 693 BUSH
els against 4.499.635 last week, 1885,
S63 in the corresponding week of 1900.
