THREE M | Oue of Them Was a Madman Bent on Murder, Loxpos, Sept. 5.—A startling story is tele- graphed to this city from Deal Kent, a seaside town near the southern extremity of the Downs, eight miles from Dover. According to the report received loud cries for help, mingled with oaths and eurses, were heard early this morning some distance seaward and almost directly off the town of Deal. Two local policemen immediately entered a boat and put to sea in order to inquire into the mysterious cries. The police, however, bad beon ceded aud distanced by twa Deal meu, who aly went to the rescue. ‘The boatmen found a boat of the ship Waters and witnessed a horrible | October, 29%; M fight which was going on in the small craft. | jer 4} Crouching in the stern of the boat was her cap- | es" tain, holding a little Loy in his left arm, and a | ¢ohor, 7.32:;; Jauusr young sailor, both desperately defending them- selves against the attack of another man. ‘The Intter, according to the boatmen, was an ath- letic seaman mad drunk, who was attacking the captain and the young sailor with his sheath knife. Upon the approach of the beatmen the drunken seaman threw the care overbourd, attacked them with his knife and refused to allow them to rescue the occupants of the emall boat. The mad seaman beat off the boatmen and iater ou also beat off the police who came upon th rcene ‘The result was that the ship's boat wa allowed to drift away in the mist and eventuall: disappeared. Later in the day search for the drifting boat and its occupants was renewed, but up to this hour (3 p.m.) nothing has been received from Deal on the subject. —-— THE FRENCH SHAM RATTLES.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, New York Stock Market. opr at to Corson and a ee a uver Cts, St. Pai deca Slaeen Review of the Market. jews in his Financial Review issued | the upward movement whic in so energetically several weeks .ago | continued to hold full away during the early part of the present week, the result being another sharp advance in nearly all the promi- nent shares; but at this juncture the long- Jooked-for reaction made ita appearance, and | the most snecessful buil campaign seen for | . was brought temporarily to a halt, | and the bears for the first time in ti were allowed to take an inning. Wh taken into consideration the enormout which has taken place in such stocks as C., B. and Q., R.L, Lake Shore, Mo. Pacific, North- ern Pacific’ preferred, and in fact all the prominent shares netively traded in, itis not surprising that the market should receive a set- back; but on the other hand, to have been able to stand the strain of moving in one direction for such a long period, notwithstanding free realizings from time to’ time, clearly demon- trates the good quality of the market and the improved condition of affairs brought about by the wonderful erops with which this country has been blessed. We have in round numbers, taking the co- reals combined, nine hundred and fourteen million bushels more than last year. this gives usan exportable surplus of two hundred and twenty-five million buchele of wheat, and, in a dition, a large quantity of corn. Now turn to E: rope and observe the conditions there. With the exception of Englane (and she is obliged to import one hundred aud forty million bushels of wheat annually more then she grows) every wheat producing country there is largely deti- cient in ite harvest, and it is estimated that at least two hundred’ and fifty million bushels of wheat will be required to cover the shortage. Last year the Enropean rye crop (upon which the poorer classes in such countries av Russin, Germany und Austria subsist) amounted to ten hundred and forty millions, while this year the vield will not be over six hundied and forty mi ‘That the deticiencies abroad exist as stated above there seoms to be no reasonable doubt, and as America is the on country with a largo surplus of wheat Europ must turn to us. Europeans have not been educated to eat our corn. and it hax been a matter of comment that our government his never taken any active tops to bring abont that roault.. However, with the large existing #hort- ages abroad, corn will have to be accepicd for food. and onee the experiment is tried it is not likely to be relinquished, as corn is much more nutritious than either wheat or rye. ‘Tho movement of grain at interior points has bean vers heavy, the recelyts showing an in- crense of 65 per cent over Inst year, ‘tine ix mediate effect of thin is seen in the incrcased ournings of several railroads, whose statements have lately Leen published, and suggests some e weeks range of 3¢, selling at 11:15 at 59%.

Taking the situation as a whole it is cer- tainly favorable te an ultimately higher ran, of values, but there are several thingy on the surtace which may retard for the time being any further pronounced upward movement and which it will be well not to lose aight of. Union Pacific's affairs still continue to be somewhat tangled, rumors of a receiver, to- ether with a statement that the collaterals eld against au uncanceled loan had been thrown on the market by # bunk which became impatientat the delay in tabi € the loan up, | lave caused that stock to bo looked upon again with a little suspicion both at home and abroad. Another thing to be watcheg is the statements issued by the Bank of England us having a bearing on the future conditions of affairs across the water. This week's statement shows that the proportion of reserve to liability hus declined from 45.77 last week to 45.28 thiy week, and that the decrease in the reserve for that period amounted to £395,000. ‘These fig- ures in themselves have noespecal significance, as the resorve is still wlightly above last year, but it should not be forgotten that tho old country will soon be called upon to disgorge a large amount of the gold which she so ruth- leasly took from us, and when that happens her reserves will naturally decreas. Iu view of this, the Hank of Exg!und s governors are likely to advance their rate of discount soon, which will naturally have the effect of making monoy dearer abroad and consequently more difticult, for the foreigners to carry our stocks, which at resent they have a good rebeny ‘the factor, Eiwaver, o more importance than any other at the present time, as it is the one calculated to do the most mischief if developed, is the cold weather in the northwest, which seems to be moving in several directions and which may yet do serious injury to some portions of the corn orop, as it will Le two or three weeks before all corn will be out of danger from frost. Aw be- fore stated, tho situation as & whole has a promising look for the future. But while these somewhat uncertain factors are hovering over the market it will be well to move cuu- tiously, and when good protita make their ap- ance it will be advisable to secure th he market is likely to show more activit from now on, eapecially as the leading “bear” will soon bo home to teko.a band in the game.

A-cablegram last weck*announced that the managers of the Bungobcsi,a weckly newspaper published in Bengal, having a circulation of 20,000 copies, had been fined a large sum for printing articles derogatory to the government. Copies of this newspaper havo recently arrived in England and they were found to contain the most virulent attacks upon the Indian govern- ment. The articles are said to have attracted a large public attention in northern India, and the government decided that they were cale lated to undermive thegovernment'sauthority, and that stern measures must be taken to put an end to this wort of opposition The articles were certainly couched in the most wild and extravagant terms. Most of them related to the age of consent 1 editor declared that this bit ef legislation was intended to undermine the religion of the native people. Tho newspaper also declared that fever, cholera and other diseases are xpreading with tlle extension of British rate in India. It said farther that that rule was one of brute force, and that the Indian people were weighed down under the evils which the British had brought upon thom. ‘The news. paper also held that the government was re- sponsible for the floods, famines and other great evils that had befallen the country within ton years, The proprietor, editor and manager of the nowspaper were ‘srrested aud the magistrate declined to attuit them to bail. ‘The prisoners were therefore pt in Jeil until their trial oc- curred on August 19.

The prosecution, however, asserted that the articles wore outrageous in likely seriously to affect the government's pusi- tion with regard to the people, and that the articles, in fact, could properly be regarded as treasonable. room that two well-dressed young men sough refuge from the heat yesterday. “Let us have a bottle of wine,” said the one who was the honors of the occasion. “Waiter, a of champagne.” «The cham; and two were placed On the table.
