market bushel Of American wheat
would be sold abroad instead Of at home.
Az q matter Of fact Canadian wheat
now unfavorably affects the price Of
American wheat more than it ever
could if there were no tariff. The facili.
ties for handling, transporting and stor :
ing grain in western Canada are not yet
adequate. As . consequence the Cana
dian crop is as rapidly as possible rush
ed to market and the congest:o n of stor-
age and transportation means causes the
farmer to sell at q sacrifice. Thus, at
times, Canadian wheat is offered too
cheap in Liverpool, and IN consequences
the price of American wheat which,
generally speaking, is determined by
that paid for expo TT wheat in Liverpool
Is lowered. Ifthere we're no tariff the
crops of the two countries would be
handled rs one and the extensive Amer
lean instrumen,alities Of transporting,
storing and selling would put Canad ian
wheat on exactly the same basis as
American.

this subject. He also delivered brief
eulogy on the life of General U. S.
Grant, Monday being the anniversary Of

MERCHANT SHOT DOWN
Prominent New Yorker Victim OF
Somebody's Wrath.
ACCUSATION IS MADE.

the Bullets.

New York, April 29.-Leopold Wer-
theimer, a wealthy dry goods merchant,
was shot three times in his home in
West One Hundred and Fifteenth
street. He was wounded in the chest,
arm and right side. and Is in a serious
condition. Charged with the shooting,
the police arrested Joseph Simpson,
thirty years old. of East One Hundred
and Twenty-fist street. The injured
man Is thirty-two years old and a
member of the firm of Aaron C Wer-
theimer. dry goods merchants, who
were recently burned out at their place
of business In Third avenue. Simp-
son. the police say, was employed there
as a Waterman prior to the fire. At
the time of the fire two persons were
burned to death.
The motive for the shooting Is a
mystery both to the police and the
Wertheimer family, and simpson, who
was very cool when arrested, refused
to make any statement. Since the fire
Wertheimer has not been engaged in
any business. The firm discharged its
employees. including Simpson, but he
got work as a motorman. A week ago
he lost that position and he had long
talk with Mr. Wertheimer Monday af
ternoon and returned that night. He
again talked with Mr.. Wertheimer and
the family thinks Simpson demanded
money. He returned to the Wertheimer
home at an early hour to-day and
the shooting occurred in the hallway
of the house, after which Simpson
went away and later was arrested.
