We have been ttklng aema account of the
local tobacco market ler nearly twenty year;
and we can My that never before tbe present
season we e mueh aeereay etwerved, by
both buyers and sellers, m te tbelr transac
tion aa Iim been observsd during the present
eatetijand we tblnk it way alae be said
that In very few of all these years baa the
seed leaf crop been bought up at aueh low
figures at these obtained for the orep of 1686.
llefere this crop was ready for the market
It was evident te all shrewd observers that
there wm a crest aoaretty of Hilar and binder
tuaterUl In the country and heuee Istt fall
dealer rinlied Inte the market and sa quiet
ly aa ixwlule bought up all tbe neglected
crops from 1881 te 1881. The 1S85 crop, wbleb
wa held In higher esteem, had already been
pretty well gathered In. Later entbeieed
leaf of 'M wa quietly picked up, until the
great bulk of It has been sold. Our Drumore
correspondent write, " all our seed leaf to
bacco Is Held, " and atmllar statements come
from correspondent In ether section of tbe
county. A tees number ei these sale have been
reported te the newspapers than In former
years ; and were It net that we see large de
liveries of the tobieeo almost every day at
tbe city warehouse we would be leth te be
lieve that nearly all the '85 seed leaf, nearly
1:0,000 cases, had passed lute the hands of
packers.
Of the 25,000 casea of '8U Havana seed
grown in this county comparatively little has
been bought. The packers are Inclined te
push It oil, and say they de net want It.
Thny say much of it la whlte-veined, dead
leaved and otherwise damaged some of It
having retted while sweating In bulk. Tills
msy be se te houie extent, but we bave se
much faltli In the skill and Judgment of our
formers in handling tobaceoliut we dd net
believe that any great proportion of the crop
Is thus Injured ( and If we are right In this
supposition, we tell the tobacco farmers of
Lancaster county that every pound of geed
Havana seed they lima ou hand will be
wanted by desters ami manufacturers at
higher figure than they are new offering.
Granting the superiority of Sumatra tobacco
for cigar wrappers, It cannot compete with
geed Havana swd ; first, because thorp; Is net
and cannot be enough of it Imported te sup
ply the demand for wrappers ; end, seoeud,
the high price of Huiuatra will prevent
manufacturers from using it te any very
great extent in pretorence te geed Havana
seed. It is stated en geed sutherlty that the
actual cost of growing geed Havana teed In
Pennsylvania 1 about "Jf eeut par pound;
and the coat of raising Sumatra tobacco and
getting it te the Amsterdam market I about
tbe same. Frem Amsterdam the Sumatra
tobacco haa te be shipped te New Yerk at
some cost and there It has te pay a duty
of from 35 te 75 cents per pound and by the
time It ha passed through tbe custom house
and been handled by the middle men tbe
prloeruuauptef l.50erfl75 per pound be
fore It reaches tbe manufacturer. Cigar
manufacturer are net feels and they are net
going te pay tbe above prices for wrappers If
tbey can get geed Usvsna seed for one-fourth
the price or leas, drawers of Havana seed
will find that every pound of their tobacco, if
It Is geed, will be wanted before they are
ready te bang up their '87 crop, and we
believe they will consult their own interests
by planting mere largely of Havana seed
tbsti they did last year.
Here Is a statement msde by an old tobacco
leaf buyer at the west that truthfully applies
te every branch of the tobacco business : He
said that he never saw a geed sauiple of to
bacco sell at an unsatisfactory price, no matter
what year It has Imen, nor what lluie of tbe
year, nor the condition of the financial world,
nor the state of tbeweatber, nor the state of
the buyer's liver geed tobacco si ways com cem
rnanda a geed price.

impressive talker. His Interpretation of the

a mero extended explanation could net have
been desired ; since there se many points
demanding attention In the Journey
up tbe Ithlne and along the Alp. The
student of history was at home when
the names of the cities were mentioned. In
tbe trip up tbla historic and ramantte stream
from Cologne te Basis msny quaint villa,
castles, and densely built cities were found te
line Its banks. In the former place the great
cathedral was the wonder of all, with Its
splre ever four hundred feet In the sir. After
the brief lulermlaMen the second part of the
pregramme epened by a representation of
Lucerne ; and tbe lien of Lucerne, hewn
from solid llmentone rock, twenty-eight
feet long, which stands as a monument te
French heroes, waa very fine. Among the
most noteworthy of the many beautiful
scenes In Swltxsrland were the trip up the
Klgi by car, the illuminated waterfall near
Olessbacb, the city of Qoneva, the pierced
rock and the driveway along tbe mountain
side high above the lakes, snow-capped Ment

taken there Barclay volunteered the Informa
tion te blm: "Katie wanted me te coine
ever iMt night. I didn't go ; I didn't go out
of the beuse, but went te bed."
One of tbe clearest witnesses was Jehn T.
Naylor, Justice of peace, who related tbe
scene when Katie, evidently conscious and
coherent, said, after hesitating a tew minutes:
" Birk Peak shot me. He shot me at tbe
end of the lane. He watched and shot me."
Before 1'cak was arrested Mr. Navler was
In tbe parlor nt Jeseph Peak's and heard
Bark My that Katie bad taken tbe revolver
from him and put it In her dress pocket.
Alenzo M. Bedlne, a Mount Helly police
man, beard the Rame thing, and testified also
that Barclay's mother called him into the
room where Katle was and pushed the deer
shut. Bodine pushed it open again and
went Inte the room in time te cee the mother
put her hand ou Barclay's shoulder and te
near her say : " Be very careful what you
My." Bedlne wm present at and detailed
tbe circumstances of the second examination
of Katie, when she reiterated the charge
against Peak. All the witnesses testified at
length, and much of tbe evidence wm a repe
tition of what haa been previously published.
A recess was taken until 0:30 p. in. te hear
tbe result of the autopsy, which was made
by Drs. Panoeast, Wile and De Lanney. Dr.
PanceMt made the statement te the Jury.
After recapitulating all that bad been done
by.the physicians, and eulogizing Dr. Brown's
conduct in the case, tbe witness Mid that they
found the brain frozen, as directed, and were
able te make a careful examination. Beth
hemisphere of the bruin were divided sec sec
tienally and carefully sileed, piece by pleca
It wm ahewn that tbe bullet bad pierced both
hemispheres and there were abscesses both en
tbe lelt and right tides of the head. Twe very
large abscesses were found In the centre of
tbe brain, ene as large as the small egg
of a hen. There wm no sign of the bullet In
the nbcess en the right aide of tbe head,
where tbe Induction balance bad Indicated
Its presence, but the brain below was pulpy,
greatly congested and Inflamed. A hole was
found through tbe falx (tbe shelf membrane)
In tbe left hemisphere, nnd a corresponding
hole In tberight hemisphere. All the physi
cians agreed tbat it waa made by a foreign
substance, probably a pistol bullet. Pass
ing the probe delicately alone tbe
hole en tha lett hemisphere It was found
te lead te tbe exterior original wound ;
passing It through the right, it led te the ata ata
ees last operated upon. The physicians were
beginning te be surprlaed tbat they did net
find the bullet, when, having reached the
anterior medium surfaoe of the cerebrum,
they found tha partially Uattened piece of
lead right behind the silla turcica resting en
tbe dura mater en the I tedy of the spheroid
bone, it wm Judged tbat the ball, having
pierced tbe skull en the lelt side, bad pissed
through the anterior lets, ellghtly backward,
obliquely through the falx and Inte the rlnht
hemisphere. The abeesi en the right ldu
wm tbe result of Injury from tbe bullet. Dr.
PanceMt concluded by saying tbatthe woman
catne te her death from inflammation of tbe
brain, there being two large abcessns caused
by a pistol bullet. Tbe bullet may have been
In the abcess where the Induction balance
Mid It was at the tlme the operatlou whi per
formed. Dr. Pancoast's testimony clesad the In
quest, and tbe Jury altera few inoments de
liberation returned the following verdict :
We, thejury, find that Mary C. Andersen
came te her deatii lrem abscesses and intUui intUui
matien of the brain caused by a wound from
a pistol ball. And we further siy tbat Mid
ball wm from a pistol In the hands of Barclay
Peak.
In the professional ludgment of Dr. P.tn P.tn P.tn
oesst the wound could net bave been self
inllicted, m there were no marks of powder
en the external wound. Evidently, more
over, the ball bad decided mementum when
It entered the skull.

were hundreds of ..women."' Hundreds
of Kliermntera-men, women and children
could be seen carrying away piecea of the

A large squad of police Is en band. A
