ed ;inprov. in .',! ius,:, sof staple merchan
dise thj.s we, k. Special telegrams to Ura l
!r''i !'., covering nearly all of the more im
portant centers of trade, leave no doubt that
budness generally has gone forward about as
r. port.- i f,,r scv. ral weeks p ist, quietly, with
disappointing results in some regions, only
fairly sntis-hieiory returns in others, and per
haps relatively the best reports from the
Northwestern spring wheat country, where
high prie 's fir farm p.-oduets have en
abled interior storekeepers to remit promptly
and .stimulated trade generally. Late rains
have done the growing cr ps much good, ren
dering the expected heavy harvest of cereals
more probable. This is the most favorable
feature of the week.
Sugar, at last. i lower at San FrancisftO,
and tinplntes have declined there on heavy
importations. Livestock are lower on re
stricted demand, and provisions are fairly
steady. Bank clearings in fifty-eight cities
for tiie week amount to $1,131,S"1,417, a de
crease from this week last year of li.5 per
cent. At fifty-seven cities New Ydrk's total
excluded a decrease of i per cent, is shown.
The heav y deofine as compared with the week
last vear, is due to a (,'ecrease at New York

is 1S1.3, against 4ti'.'7 last year.
THE GOLD SHIPMENTS.
(iold shipments have not made money tight
nt New Y'ork, though loans on time are re
stricted. The inflow of f unds from the inter
ior continues. Sales of bills against the $7,
i.W.iiai gold exported have lowered exchange
to a point which prevent further shipments,
unless the Bank of England continues to otier
a positive premium for specie. Later advices
indicate that the Bank of England has re
duced its premium for gold. This is reflected
iu t ho speculative share market, which is strong
and improving with a fair amount of foreign
buying of stocks. The rains, the crop prospects
and the hopefulness iu railroad circles also
have a bullish influence on speculation.
Net railway earnings for March show great
irregularity und only a small gain over last
year, a season when large gains were numer
ous. The Southern Pacific and coal roads
make relatively the best showings, while the
Southwestern, Trunk Line, and granger roads
show the heavier decreases.
AN ADVANCE IN WHEAT.
Wheat advanced ic. during the week on re
ports of retardation of the new crop and heavy
export demand, though subsequent rains tend
to produce weakness. The Atlantic Coast
has been exporting more heavily than for
months' past, notably Xew Y'ork and Mon
treal. Pacific Coast shipments are slackening,
and new-crop wheat there will be a fortnight
late. Exports (including flour as wheat) are
heavy this week, equaling '2.490,74-1 bushels
against 2,:tr.'l.!i: bushels in this week a yenr
ago and two-thir.ls as niu.h iu each of the like

Lloyd Bowers, aged sixty-eight years, and
for twenty years prior to January of this year
cashisr of the First National Bank of Mobile,
Ala., shot himself in the forehead the other
morning and died in the afternoon. He had
been forced by ill health to retire from active
business life. He had $70,000 to his credit in
the bank.
A young woman of a poor but respectable
family nunied Ernes was to have been married
to a young man near Louisburg, N. C. lie
betrayed her, and then declined to marry. A
warrant was issued. He was arrested and
taken to Louisburg. All this so bore upon the
mind of the young woman that during the ab
sence of her parents at the trial she committed
suicide.
Charles Koch, of Annapolis, Md., unearth .;
an old pistol on the banks of the Spa creek,
which resembles very much a pop-gun. The
barrel is about twelve inches long aud half an
inch in diameter, and is composed of solid
silver. The handle is of carved iron, which
appears to contain the works of this singular
firearm. It is supposed to have been lost
during the Revolution, and is thought to have
been a dueling pistol.
A gentleman of Hagerstown, Md., went to
( earfoss to buy some hay which he needed,
but the farmer informed him that the hay was
mouldy and unfit for use. On examination
t hey found that the mould was a kind of web
filled with countless black larva worms about
half an inch in length, and the stack was
literally replaced by a squirming mass of
animals. A handful of the hay withered iu
the grasp and left black stains.
A great many pine trees are dying through,
out i lie Valley of Virginia, as far east as the
Blue Ridge Mountains, and continuing to the
Ohio river. The bark seems to be full of
small holes, causing the escape of the rosin.
When the tree is cut down thirty feet from the
stump it is blue or mildewed. The decline of
these trees has only been in the last four or
five months, and it commences at the top.
Along the north fork of the Blackwater
river, in Tucker county, half a mile from
Hendrick's Station, on the West Virginia
Central and Pennsylvania Railroad, theie is a
cave one mile long, which has, as yet, only
been partially explored. An arched channel,
varying from six to thirty feet in height, leads
throughout the entire cavern that has a sub
terranean stream of pure water constantly
flowing through the main way and all the
recesses so far discovered. Half a mile from
the entrance there is an op ening, where many
snow -while pillars almost biing the eyes, an I
throughout ihe cave is fascinatingly bemitiful,
aud well worth further exploration.
A GUARD'S TRUE AIM
A lesperate Convict AVhile Trying to Burn
a Prison Shot and Killed.
A despatch from Birmingham, Ala., says:
Clayton Lloyd, a desperate white convict, at
Pratt Mines, serving a sentenceof twelve yenrs
for attempting to poison his w ife and children
in Dale County that he might marry a Georgia
woman, attempted to escape by setting fire to
the lattice work around the closet. He had
saturated the wood with oil from his miner
lamp.
Having made an attempt before he was be
ing closely watched, and at the very time he
was striking matches a guard was watching
him from the outside. As he struck his second
match the guard fired, killing him instantly.
Four hundred prisoners were locked up in the
building.
