Thursday, September 15. During the week past foreign and eastern markets have lost tone but to-day recovered all lost ground and stand as high as at any time within n month. The attempt to keep prices below $1.00 n cental is doubtless duo to the determination to advance freights. Ton nage has gone nominally up to ItOs per ton, and in California to His, and een higher rates are talked of, and from this tune on the battle will bo between spt. lift torn in charters and wheat holders over tn"(f price of tonnage Consideiable is said about co-operation of wheat grow cis to demand an advance on wheat, and the eoiuu.oii belief is that the far mer should net one dollar a bushel tlnough tliii alley, hut wo do nut contend against any ling or monopoly but against a scarcity of shipping the world over, and under theso circumstances tonuago controls the situation to a great extent. Tho partial leiiu-dy is to keep back wheat and not permit speculators to load up at low liguies. From present out looks we need not fear any decline of prut's ami tho farmer can and must lefuso to sell tin lets lie can got a leasonahle price, not foiget ting that freights being so high wo must take 1T 23 cents uJiishil fioui what wo might ex poet to receive ill oiilinu jiuts. This seanuu we tind Walla Walla wheat valuotl as Iiil'Ii as tlie oust alley grain, nliien must bo a gratilicatiou to wheat-growers in the upper couutty and is a fact we are happy to record. When the Noith I'acitio road shall be com. pleted thiougli tow aula Chicago, it is possible that Walla Walla and I'ulouse grain can lie ile liteied in Liveipool by tail across tlie continent as cheaply as by Mil to Portland and thence at current lates around the Horn, and our fi lends can anticipate that time as to their advantage, (rain grown East of there can ceit.iinly be sent East by rail. There is nothing in particular relative to tounagv supply; crop prospects aie hardly mentioned in despatches; the linn attitude of the fureign giaiu market to-day indicates a rite since Saturday luised upon late and re liable crop estimates. It does not seem dan gerous for farmers to hold wheat fur awhile and many seem disposed to do so until the market becomes more settled ami crop re turns of the world are Utter understood. Wool is only nominally a marketable arti cle with us and ipiotal ions mnauu without change at the East and abroad. Nothing new in hops, but a fair outlook for tlie coming crop. Many are engaged drying fiuit through the country and the crop of plums and prunes be ing large thsre will W an unusual quantity of good quality put on the market. Country produce conies in freely and pota toes aiu duller than earlier in season; aits are gowrucd by spot demand. (liveu fruits are abundant, with the excep tion that good eatiug apples are not plenty ami boar a fair price. Butter it 30 cents for choice rolls. lUoon lard and hams are stuf at prices quoted. Dried fruit is rather a dmg. Wadhamt A Elliot havu just sold 500 cases of Piumuier dried apples at U cent., though thry expected Uiiealuoat Itast I'Joiits.

But fe,w spot charters have been written since our last, but those few will be found to have been fixed at very full rates, say 82s lid to Liverpool direct, 00s to Cork for orders to the United Kingdom or to the Continent. Thcio is now on tho way, and leading for this port, a fleet of whoso aggregate tonnage amounts to 326,000 tons. Of this fleet there is now fully due about 80,000 tons, which is enough to keep all hands moving for awhile Wheat continues to move off lively, and every indication points to a continuation of high freights for tho balance of the year. Hops--Tlis market for the now crop is not yet fully .established, although arriving freely f i om the Southern portion of ths State; but the quality so foi is infeiior, being picked and cuied in a good many instances before they weio fully matured. This is a fatal mistake forgroweis, a it always tends to have a de pressing effect on the value of good samples that airive later. For new crop no market is so far established, prices being entirely nom inal. Some contracts have been made for Russian liver for futuie delivery at prices ranging from 1518c. Emmet Wells' New York citcular of August 2(lth says: "Except ing the fact that there was no change in the price of choice hops from 23c pel lb, during the ten months intervening October 15th and August 15th, it has been rather an uneventful season. Home crop advices this week are, on the whole, moie favorable. The jield will come but little short of last v ear's, and the quality still promises to bo tine. Picking has already commenced m several districts too eirly it would seem though the late hot and forward weather may have ripened the hops sutliciently to warrant it; upon this subject we will bo better able to pass judgmtiit when we see the hops. There has been a largo trade with brcwcis this week a( unchanged prices, all holders aliening a imposition to cleat off tho old stock and commence bucineas with clean boards," 65,000 quarters from India, and 59,100 quarters from California. OERMANY. Much rain fell In this country last week, Interrupting harvest work. In Meokleuburg and Holstein Ibe yield of wheat and rye Is estimated at only half to two thlrdsof an average. The "lerm" markets this week have decidedly Im proved for both wheat and rye, although the latter "in quieter at Berlin yester day. L-iMl week the Berlin market n quite aulive for both wheat and rje there appear to bo very few oilers of the latter artlulo from Kussla. At Hum burg spot wheat met a brisk demand at full rates, and 'fureign wheat for for- I ward delivery was also In reitnest. HOLLAND. The weather In this country hua been wet, and the crop reports are not en tlrely satisfactory. Tlie country mar kets have ruled quiet and without much activity; hut In the pons there has been considerable animation, and a decided advance in both wheat and rye. At Amsterdam both wheat aud rye for de livery close some llorlnB higher on the week. AUSTUIA-HUNOAHY. The crop reports from this country are. favorable as regards wheat, but Maize has suffered, anil rye is very variable. Values of both wheat aud flour has Im proved, according to lust postal advices, aud according to telegrams received this week there has been a decided rise in autumn wheat. Flour met more de mand for both England aud Germany. lieerbohm. NORTH RUSSIA. The weather remains changeable, but still favorable for farmers, who are lu expectation of a successful Ingathering of their grain crops. It Is eipected that this year's rye crop Is particularly line aud weighty. No essential alteration has taken place lu the corn market, as the continued absence of foreign de mand, ooupled with the trifling lluctua- tious lu the rates of exchange, preclud ed any active export business. SOUTH RUSSIA. The gloomy prospects of the past year seem at last to be improving here. It is yet rather early to draw conclusions as to prospeots for next year. Last week, a day of ralu, followed by three days of Intense beat, scorched up all the wheat in Bessarabia aud the south of Iloumaiiitt fur 100 miles iulaud, consid erably diminishing Its value. North of this tract all is well thus far, with abundant yield. In uo year has there been such au extraordinary demand for reaplug and agricultural machines. The orders sent here can sea roe I y be fulfilled. Dornbiueh, FOREIGN DROPS AND MARKETS. Hates ol Auk, IS.

It had been expected that the yield In the north ami northwest, where a great proportion of the wheat Is grown, would help to make up for the defloleticy In the remainder of the country, but It now appears certain that the yield will not be even as good as last year's, but the quality Is expect ed to be generally belter.

KNOWN HKIir, Having been h.r jcais employed in Ladd i. Tiltou's 11 ink, and afterward county clcik of this county for two successive tprms, has been stopping with Charles tdiau, who kcjis a place of lesott on Ross Island tor the past five or six weeks, havinir his gun and fishing mil along, imusing himself in hunting and fishing. Yesterday afternoon II .waul vi-ited the island, acconipanii d by a lutle China boy, whuin ho left in the boat while ho went into Shaw's saloon. I'toin par ties who vvcio eye witnesses of the affair, we Irani that Smith and Howard met in the sa loon, and that some SLIGHT ALTFKCVTION Took place between them, after which Smith went into a parlor adjoining the bar room. Shortly after Howard threw down some two or three dollars on the counter, and asked all present to drink. The proprietor, Shaw, his wife, and a gentleman named Uellegardc, a G.rman woman named Jcnnio Trevanyon took a drink, and at this time smith came back into the bar room and walked up alongside the bar close to Howard, woo drew a pistol Irom his hip pocket, and presenting it point blank, fired, and Smith fell dead. The pistol was a Colts' self-cocker of 45 calibre, and the bmlet went through or close to the heart. Howard claims that Smith made a motion to ilraw a pist ,1, but the bystanders say he did not. After the FATAL --HOT WAS HKED Howard put the pistol back into hi i pocket, aud Shaw, who is a French I'anadim, told his wife in French to take the pistol from him, which she succeeded in doing, coming up betiind mm anil Bnatcn ingitfrom his pocket and ran off into the kitchen with it. Howard then ran out the luck way and got into his boat to make his escape and was purstu d by llellegarde who ordered him to come back, when he caught up au oar and attempted to strike mm, upon .vliicli llellegarita caught up another and threatened to brain him unless he sunendered, Mr. John Barry and a couple of other gentle men came up iu a boat about this time and IIOWAKI) WAS SF.CUKEI. Darry at once came down to Jefferson street and proceeded to the St. George Hotel and telephoned to the police office, when the chief ami party started out ana secured tne mur derer as above narrated. Coroner Ganiold was notifiud and brought the body of Smith to his office where an inquest will be held this morning. Of the murdered man little need here be said. Ho was w 11 known in this city and till within the past two years was a much respected and honorable citizen few more so a genial and intelligent and kind-hearted gentleman, who had the rerpect and confidence of all who knew him, but in an evil hour he fell a victim to strong drink and his steps have since that time been ou the downward path, much to the sorrow and regret of his numerous friends, who have spared no efforts to reclaim him, but iu vain, lu view of his sad and tragic end let us draw the mantle of charity over his faults and folbci and strive to think only of the brighter and better part of his career ere he was led astray.

From what we aie able to gither in ngard to mm u appeals mat lie came Here trom .Mon tana about two mouths since. Ho has made some acquaintances, but has been very reti cent in regai d to his affairs, as will be si en for very go m1 reasons. His first exploit was to victimise an unsophisticated fellow to the tune ol some Bix or seven hundred dollars by representing himself as a chemist who was possessed of the secret of preparing a valuable medicine, an interest in which he sold to his victim. On the 27th of July ht hired an old houso on Fourth stieet near Sherman and boiicht a lot of coal oil cans, which he filled with a mixture of coal oil and water, and hav ing teahd them informed his dune that thev contained the medicine aforesaid, which was a icniedy for all the aches and pains that flesh ... i.. ... li..: i'i- it e ,. is ,,.,4 hj. iiuiiug jHj&scssuci nimseii oi an the coin his dure possessed ho hKlri'Ell THE TOWN For a time, till rinding that no active mens- uus were being taken acainst mm. ho ven tured to leturn.
