THIS MEANS 763 CARS Biggest Day bot Tws on Record—And for All the lumense Receipts, the Price Keeps on Boominy. Kaneas City Times, Iith. Wheat end plenty of it and the best prices in years. This is what is making the Wes‘ern farmer smile. The banner was almost touched aguin yesterday in Kansas City in the matter of wheat receipts. The number of cars brought to the Kan sas City market yesterday from Kan- sas, Nebraska and western Missouri numbered 763. They carried balf a taillion bushels. With two exceptions it wrs the banner day. On Monday of last week, August 9, the receipts reached 831 cara, not only tre biggest of the seasov, but the biggest on record. The banner day’s receipts of 1896 were 526. The railroad yards were full to stifling and the market was almost deluged. And yet the grain was all takeao care of by purchasers, who asked for more. ‘The scens was the sime yesterday. Millers, grain dealers, brokers and elevator propri etois were busy all day, and will work continuously to keep up with the flood unless it overwhelms them by its magnitude later in the week. This bas been a banner year so far in quantity and prices. Since the season of wheat movement opened there have been few days when the receipts were less then 200 cars. If the flow keeps up, a grand exbibi- bition receipt day of 1,000 cars may | On the Court House equare, com- yet be reached this year. And in the face of all this prices ure advanc- ing. Dealers had an idea that such an ava'anche of wheat would have a depressing effect upon prices, but it did not. The grain was wanted badly and sold readily at advancing prices On Saturday No 2 hard wheat sold at 78 cents to 80 cents. Yesterday it sold from 80} to 82 cents and there were plenty of takers at tbat. The exporter was the con spicuous personage ia the local field and the seaboard sent in higher bids than on Saturday. Liverpool sent a cablegram to a local house and bid 2% cents higher thaa the best price obtainable on Saturday. STRONG DEMAND FROM ABROAD. In all probab lity 250,000 bushels of wheat haye been committed for export since Saturday evening, with the elevator fraternity licking up the remainder greedily and hungrily and like Oliyer Twist crying for more. Very little wheat remained unsold at the close of the market | Saturday, and what was carried over | was due to the belief that prices would be higher Monday. Andthey were. The cldest traders in Kansas City confess that they never wit- uessed such a continuous advance and are fearful that when a break comes it will bea heavy one Con | sequently they are conservative. But just the same their position | might seem to a man on a box car to be ultra-careful, fer the foreigner is no matter what the price is. It cuts very little figure what the price is,! or whether Kansas City gets 763) ears in one day cr 1,000. The re- ceipts yesterday were but 40,000 | The receipts Saturday were) 325 ears, or 213,000 bushels. | All domestic markets were fever-| ish and abvormally excited.

A year ago, with the crop at) 427,000,000 bushels, worth 55 cents, it bad a value of but $243,850,000. In the year the farmers’ income from wheat alone increased by this esti-| mate $147,650,000. A week ago the price was 76 cents. It basincreased 9 cents and enbanced the value of the crop $40,500,000. Only twice since 1892 have present prices been exceeded. DR.

Count of Turin and Prince Henry of Paris, August 15.—The duel be- tween Prince Henry of Orleaus and tbe Count of Turin, a nephew of King Humbert, which grew out of ; statements made by the Prince re-! garding the conduct of the Italian prisoners who were captured by | King Menelik during the recent dis astrous campaign in Abyssinia, took | place at 5 o'clock this morning in the Bois dea Marrehaux, about ten; miles from Paris. ‘The fight wasa desperate one. The Prince was severely wounded, and was removed from the field hors decombat. The Count was slightly wounded. The place where the mesting took place is a favorite dueling ground. The Oount of Turin is 27 and is known as Prince Victor Emmanuel. He is son of the late Duke of Aosta, anephew of Kiang Humbert anda major in a cavalry regiment. He is brother-in law of Orleans and cousin of Helere. His seconds were Col Felice Avogardo di Quinto and Col. Vicino Palaricino. The medical cases, with their shining instruments, were opened, the ground was measured and the adversaries faced each other Two pairs of swords bad been treated an- tiseptically by the curgeons The principals then stripped off their coats and vests, took their places and the swords were handed out. The Italian wera a heavy leatber glove, as is the custom in his coua- try. His sword was attached to his wrist by a leather thong Standing face to face it was seen that the Count of Turia was a little taller than the Prince. In a moment Count | Leontieff had taken up his plac2 be- side the belligerents THE CONDITIONS. “Monsigneurs,” he said, “let me iremind you of the conditions of the duel. Ground gained by either of the combatants will be retained by him. Each engagement will ! four minutes. Upon your Lous: will not cross ewords until after I have uttered the words, ‘Allez, mes sieurs!’ and you will stop the moment you kear the word ‘balte!’ ” Count Leoatieff then warned the combatants to put themeelves on guard) At the signel, ‘Allez, mes- sieurs!” the two swords clashed to | gether with ringing sound. Both |men were firm aud determined, the : Prince being the more excited. Prince Henri attacked with fie impatience.

Theterms of the duel were that if by reason of wounds cne be came inferior to the other the fight should stop. The Prince fainted and the doctors said he was inferior. | | Orleans Both Wounded. \ He revived soon, shook hands with | the Count and retired from the field. The Count went to Rome and isa | bero there. The Prince is in Paris. | He walked unaided to his carriage. | It is now believed that King Hum- | hert did not know the Duke was to fight.

Little Rock, Ark, Aug. 15.—The bloodiest race riot that has occurred in Arkansas in months took place at Palarm Station, thirty miles from Little Rock, late tbie evening. Three men are dead, another fatally wounded and two otbers injured. Owens, a deputy sheriff from Per- ry county, bad a warrant for Harri- son Korr, a negro, charged with murder. When he attempted to make the arrest at Palarm, Korr opened fire on the officer. The first shot struck Owens ia the groin, the bullet striking silver coin in the trousers pocket, glanced and inflicted a serious wound. The money in Owens’ pocket probably saved his life. Andry and Ciarke went to Owens’ assistance and five or six negroes joined in with Korr. A pitched bat- tle ensued, in which over fifty shots were fired. Whea the shooting was over Andry ard Peters lay dead. Clarke had got into his office and fellonthe floor Owens was lying in a ditch near the station, and Korr and the remainder of his companions had dieappeared. The entire town was at the scene of the shooting snd a posse started in pursuit of the fleeing negroes. Harrison Korr was found lying dead 'jn the road a mile away, literally shot to pieces. blood running from | five wounds in his tody. The other negroes who participated in the bloody affeir continued their flight and have not yet been captured.
