frrCTAI. TELEGRAM TO THE niSFATCII.
Ehie, Feb. 5. Charles Pietri, Jr., son of
& prominent Mclvean township farmer, lies
dead to-night at the house of a brother in
3ie, a victim to the alleged perfidy of his
.Young wife, Susie Pietri, and a young
Buffalo doctor. The munlered man was a
restaurant proprietor in Buffalo, and while
his brother, George Pietri, attended to the
restaurant he worked at the grain elevators.
Pietri and his wife had words over her
unwifely conduct, and when he discovered
a suspicions sediment in his coflee a few
weeks ago he became alarmed and came to
Erie to conier with his wife's mother and
her sisters. Their suspicions led them to
implore him to quit his Buffalo home and
tiring his wife to Erie where they could
watch her. He returned to Bufialo against
their advice, and two weeks ago was taken
suddenly ilL The attending physician in
Bufialo diagnosed his troubles to be enlarge
ment of the liver.
C harmed by Her Sister With Poisoning.
Jliss Barbabe Herbick, sister of Pietri's
wife, ent from Erie to Bufialo, and, find
ing that her brother-in-law did not improve,
boldly declared he was being poisoned, and
induced him to come with her to Erie.
"When the Erie sister arrived here with her
charge she took him to his brother's home,
and she and her mother stood by him day
and night until his death. They boldly de
clared that Pietri's wife was responsible for
his death.
The absence of Coroner D. A. Hendrick,
who eloped last week with another man's
uife, nearly caused the matter to pass with
out official investigation. This morning
District Attorney Sisson ordered Alderman
Sn alley to act as Coroner and investigate.
The remains of 1'etri were being prepared
for burial this afternoon when Alderman
Swallcy took possession and ordered the
funeral postponed.
Tracts of Arsnnlc Are Fonnd.
Three surgeons made an autopsy, and the
diagnosis ot the attending physician here
was confirmed by the result of the autopsy.
There were strong evidences of arsenical
pois-oniag in the stomach and liver. The
Coroner's jury directed that the stomach
and portions of the vitals be sent at once to
.'cti York for analysis, and adjourned the
inquest to await tbe'resulK
Meanwhile the wife of the dead man, who
had refused to come to Erie till lost night,
is under police surveillance. She was at
once accused by her mother and sister with
being the author of her husband's fate.
This'singular conduct on the part of her
mother and sister threw her into hysterics,
and she is a ravine miniac to-night. She
rieclared upon her bended knees before her
God, that she i innocent of the crime laid
at her door. Her 7-year-old daughter Viola
is frantic, and can scarcely be torn away
from her mother's neck.
The local authorities are waiting the
action of the Buffalo officials, as the crime,
if committed by Mrs. Petri, was perpe
trated in another State. The remains of
the dead man were given up to-night to the
friends for burial Petri was 27 years of
age and had been married eight years.

ANOTHER TO RETIRE.
J. W. Spalding to Withdraw From
tho Kew York Baseball Club.,
PRESIDENT TEMPLE'S PROPHECY.
Conference Between the Three A's and the
Local Club Jlapmatcs.
JOILV L. SULLIVAN'S LATEST ESCAPADE
tsrr.CTAL telegram to the msPATOt.t -
Xkw Yonrc, Feb. C There is quite a
surprise in store for the stockholders of the
if ew Y'ork Baseball Club in the shape of
the resignation of J. "V. Spalding from the
office of Secretary and Treasury and from
"the directory at thexannual meeting, to be
held in Jersey City next week.
An official of the club, who knows
whereof he speaks, stated definitely that
the resignation in question will be the re
sult of a well-laid plan, which was con
cocted several months ago. It would have
been consumatcd some months ago, but
force of circumstances prevented it. The
club official referrecWo says that Mr. Spald
ing will not sell out, but he will "retire"
like his brother, A. G. Spilding, whose
private secretary, James A Hart, is now
President of the Chicago club. The club
official in question explains fully the situa
tion in Gotham's club as follows:
"The retirement of J. "V. Spalding has
been somewhat predicted, and rightly, too.
Mr. Spalding's business is made paramount
to the interests of the club in all he does,
and that it is this conflict of interests
which restrains the gentleman from becom
ing as aggressive a magnate as it is neces
sary to be in these days to uphold a club's
welfare.
"The foundation for Mr. Spalding's re
tirement from the club has already been laid
by the selection of C. D. "White to be the
club's secretary. Mr. White is an excellent
man for the position. He is a popular
gentleman and was the President of the'
Eastern League last year, and will occupy
the same position during the cpmingseason.
But he is in Mr. Spalding's employ. Mr.
White holds'a clerkship in Mr. Spalding's
store, and is, in a baseballSense, under Mr.
Spalding's thumb.
"With Mr. White in the office of Secre
tary of the If ew York club, Mr. Spalding's
'retirement' from the business affairs of,
the 'Giants would be a technically or, I
might say, a 'make believe.' He could, and
probably would, exercise more authority
through his secretsry than he would through
the office in his own hands.
"At this time and under the present
regime it will be to -the interest of the
Spaldings to stand behind a dark screen and
pnll the strings which shall move and ani
mate their successors.
''The baseball world is supposed to look
upon, or rather to consider, these two gen
tlemen, who have been of so much worth to
the national game, to be in 'retirement,'
but the thinking and knowing ones will
look upon Messrs. Hart and White as a
kind of Punch and Judy, whose acts and
words are prompted by" the manipulators
behind the screen."
THEY MEAN TO CONFLICT.
Iiivelj Times Expected Dctwecn the ZVew
Orleans Athletic Clubs.
U"ev Orleans, Feb. 5. The fight be
tween the Olympic and Metropolitan Clubs,
is still on in full force. Arbitration has
been attempted, but so far has not been suc
cessful. The Olympics offered to have
Maher fight at 7 o'clock, leaving the Metro
politans to bring on Eyan and ifcedham at
9 o'clock, but the Metropolitans considered
this simply a shrewd trick to catch the
business, and say if the Olympics fight at 7
they will do the same.
The Metropolitans propose to get even
with Fitzsimmonsby bringing down Hall on
March 2 and allowing him to openly chal
lenge Fitzsimmons, giving the latter the
alternative of accepting or backing out.
Jimmie Carroll heard of the report and said
that Fitzsimmons will not give Hall the
benefit of any advertising by arranging a
match before a club. Fitzsimmons will,
however, gratify Hall's desire to light, if he
has any, bv going into a room with him and
settling the question of superiority for
nothing. The Metropolitans sav that Hall
proposes to make the same ofler, so that
somebody will have to fight or crawl.
JOHN L. AGAIN.
Ho Causes Quite a Surprise in a Theater at
Denver.
Denver, Col., Feb. 5. John L. Sulli
van arrived here last night, and while in
toxicated went upon the stage of the Tabor
Opera House, where Stuart Bobson's com
pany was playing.
In the midst of a scene he appeared, and
seizing ltobson's hand, exclaimed: "Shake
with Honest Hearts and Willing Hands."
As soon as the audience found out who it
was they raised great applause, and Sulli
van started to make a speech, but was re
moved" by stage hands. The affair created
considerable amusement, and even Stuart
Bobion could not keep quiet
Sullivan's manager is in a quandary. He
may have to give up the trip unless John
braces up. He says the big fellow will not
sign another pledge, for he blames this wilh
being the cause of his troubles.
A NEW CONTEACT.
The Three A's 3nd the Iinll Club .arransinu
New Terms.
O. D. Thompson, representing the Alle
gheny Athletic Association, had a long con
ference witli the directors of th local ball
club yesterday. The object of the confer
ence was to formulate a new contract be
tween the ball club and the Three A's rela
tive to the latter using the ball grounds.
The ball club directors think that hereto-,
fore the contract between the parties was
too much in favor of the athletes, as it gave
them the use of the grounds every morning
before a ball game and every evening after
the game, besides days when the club was
absent. Mr. Thompson stated that the ama
teurs were quite willing to modify the con
ditions of the contract and the conference
adjourned. In the meantime a contract will
be drawn up thatwill be satisfactory to both
parties. '

AN IHP0ETANT SUGGESTION.
Ex-President Calhoun Wants the City
League to Enlarge Its Field.
East Liverpool, Feb. 5. Special.
The proposed Eastern Ohio League seems
likely to fall through, owing to the distance
between cities and lack of interest of sev
eral of the proposed "strongest" teams. In
view of this fact, President W. A. Calhoun,
of last year's Ohio Valley 'League, has in
the last ten days been in communication
with a number of the towns and cities near
Pittsburg, with a view of having the teams
from such places make an effort to have the
new City League enlarge its proposed
field of play to include the adjoining towns
and cities.
If the city delegates look with favor on
the proposition, it is probable that enough
clubs can be gotten from such places as
Bridgeville, Washington, Sewickley,
Beaver, Beaver Falls and East Liverpool,
which added to the city clubs, will make a
league even niore formidable than the
County League. From a financial point of
view, such an addition to the city teams
would no doubt contribute greatly to the
success of the new League. The strange
faces in the outside teams would prove
quite an attraction to the city games,
and the heavy patronage of the outside
towns would be a very pleasing feature to
the city clubs in counting gate receipts
when away on trips.
Should the outlying cities receive notice
that their applications will be properly
considered, there will be several delegates
present at the League meeting on Tuesday
evening next
PEESIDENT TEMPLE'S GUESS.
He Fredlcts now the League Clubs Will
Finish Next FalL
President Temple, of the local club, wan
quite in a cheerful mood yesterday after
noon regarding the financial prospects of
the coming season. He said:
"There will be some good ball playing this
year and Leave put on paper a guess as to
how I think the clubs will stand at the
end of the season. Here is my guess re-
farding how they'll finish: Boston, Brook
yn, Cinciuuati, Pittsburg, Philadelphia,
New York, Chicago, Cleveland, St. Louis,
Washington, Baltimore, Louisville."
The President gave reasons for his selec
tions and in placing Booklyn second, he
said, Ward would have a good team. Mr.
Temple went on to say that there was noth
ing new regarding Kelly and Mack.
They All "Wnnt Brown.
Lots of ball clubs want Tom Brown. The
Courier-Journal says: Dr. Stucky now has
seven offers from seven different clubs for
Brown. He received another one marked
"confidential" yesterday. One club mana
ger telegraphed eagerly several days ago for
a proposition :n regard to Brown. The
Louisville President sent back a reply
offering the great center fielder for seven of
the inquirer's team. 2fo reply to this has
yet been received. The Philadelphia club
is the most eager of any to obtain possession
of Brown. Its owners have made no less
than five propositions for the player. The
Washington club would like very much to
have Brown.

IEON IX AN UNSATISFACTORY STATE
rsrECtAL telegram to Tne DisrATcn.1
IfEW York, Feb. 5. Special telegrams
to Braitetrcet'z are, on the whole, more fav
orable as to the course of general trade
than in any preceding week this year.
Nearly every dispatch records some im
provement. "
The least gain is shown, perhaps, from
Galveston, where the volume of goods
moving is about equal to the total one year
ago. At Savannah and Baltimore, where
business has been quiet, there is a better
feeling, and receipts of naval stores at the
former are heavy. New Orleans reports
that some of the depression due to low
prices for cotton has been overcome. The
new, rice combination controls prices of
both clean and rough. Cincinnati reports
that business does not equal expectations,
and is only fair in drygoods, boots and
shoes and clothing.
( There were 279 failures in the "United
States this week, compared with 219 last
week. About 85 per cent were employing
capital not to exceed 5,000 each, and about
9 per cent of them ?5,000 to f20,000 each.
The Spring Delivery Demand Growing.
Almost all other leading trade centers re
port increased demand and a growing vol
ume of orders for staples for spring deliv
ery. Mild weather has had unfavorable in
fluence locally at the Northwest, but job
bers generally now regard the outlook more
hopefully. Next to a better request for
staples named, the greatest demand is'for
groceries and provisions.
Live cattle and hogs at Omaha arc 10c
higher, but unchanged in the Southwest.
Petroleum is dull and featureless, and
leather and hides are no firmer. Lumber is
in light request, and paints and drags are
very quiet. There is some new demand for
hardware and cutlery, and tobacco is in bet
ter demand. The enforced advance of 25
per cent for anthracite coal has not resulted
in renewed purchases.
Pig iron is as sluggish as heretofore, and
stocks are said to show signs of increasing.
Prices on "private terms" were last week
made openly 50c under the nominal market.
The break in the iron and steel beam com
bination has let prices down about one
third for those shapes. Since January 1 the
position of iron has been growing less satis
Jactory. The Dearleit January In Bank Clearings.
The total of bank clearings at 48 cities for
January 55,571,357,133, is 14 per cent more
than in January one year ago, 0.6 per cent
more than two years ago, and 16 per cent
more than in January, 1889. It is, in fact,
the heaviest January aggregate recorded,
though largely due to an increased volume
on Wall street and breadstuffs trading. In
the region west of Pennsylvania, north of
the Ohio river valley to Kansas, and north
to the Dominion, 13 important cities show
substantial increases in January clearings
totals this year over last. There were like
decreases at as many cities south of the
Ohio river, west of the Atlantic coast States,
to and including Texas, while cities like St.
Louis, St. Joseph, Topeka and Waco barely
held their own. This contrast is between
the two regions where trade of late has been
most active and least satisfactory.
The speculative share market has been
irregular, and experiences more or less re
pressing influence from the unsettled finan
cial conditions in Europe and the attendant
telling of securities by foreign holders.
A Fear of Coming Gold Kxports.
The advance of exchange, which has risen
this week lc on the pound, in the face of
our large exports, attracts unfavorable
comment, though -anticipations of gold
shipment are considered premature. These
factors have added to the professional char
acter of speculation and depressed tenden
cies of stock values in Distillers (one of the
leading Industrials) also affecting the mar
ket. At the same time the plethora of
money and the extremely easy loaning rates
sustains investment buying, and dividend
paying stocks have shown firmness, some of
the leading coal shares, with Western
Union, showing advances.
Silver this week touched the lowest com
mercial quotations on record 11 9-14d in
London and SOJc in New York, though at
the decline buving for Indian account
created a steadier feeliDg, followed by a
slight improvement.
Eastern jobbers in drygoods report the
general market stronger, with tne large
volume of shipments to the West a feature.
Staple cotton goods are stronger and ex
ports larger, while demand for prints and
ginghams is active, with stocks light in first
hands. Print cloth stocks arc about one
third of the total a year ago.
Woolen nnd Carpet Goods.
The demand for woolen goods is only fair.
There is free inquiry for carpets at low
prices. Raw cotton continues weak 011
large receipts, losing 3-10c. Manufacturers
have taken raw wool more freely at conces
sions lrom dealers who have been carrying
large stocks in consignment.
Stocks of available wheat in the United
States and Canada, 'Europe and afloat, from
all sources for Europe, decreased only about
1,300,000 bushels in Jauuary from an aggre
gate of more than 150,000,000 bushels on
Januarv 1 last, as compared with more than
6,000,000 bushels decrease in January, 1891;
over 9,000,000 bushels decrease in Januarv,
1890, and more than 11,000,000 bushels de
crease 'i January, 188!). The January de
crease in vrheat stocks in the United States
and Canada (nearly G,000,000 bushels) was
oflsct in part, over "4,000,000 bushels, by an
increase of wheat stocks in Europe and
afloat therefor. Exports of wheat and flour
as wheat from the United State", both
coasts, this week, aggregate 4,740,000 bush
els, an increase as contrasted with the pre
ceding week. Prices for wheat have
strengthened with more active foreign in
terest, gaining i cents on the week.
It. G. Dnn Shows Vt hero Strength Lies.
K. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade
will to-morrow say:
In spite ot much dullness and complaint
in some impoi tant brunches, trade is gradu
nnlly enlarging. The Kant does not get tho"
full benefit, because AVestern business is
largely met by AVestern distributing cen
ters, aud that alone is incieasiug heavily,
while Southern trade, which Is more largely
met by distribution from the East, H unu.-m-ally
dull: but the West is steadily increas
ing orders for manufactured products and
is likely to buy more largely in tho next Ave
.months tlinn ever botore. iUstern con
sumption is also fairly up to the maximum,
as labor is well employed.
Tho stiingcncy at the South, owing to the
overproduction of cotton and hurtful spec
ulation in the pa-t, is at present the only
foice letarding the general improvement.
Expprts of merchandise continue to greatly
exceed last year's tor five months at
New York by about 37 per cent, while in the
value of imports the inciease is very alight.
Iteportf 01 business from the cities are a
shado more fuvorable. At Boston the dry
goods Jobbing trade is quite good, with moi e
oiders for woolen goods. At Hartford,
larger sales of wool and lair trade in dry
goods are leported. At Philadelphia moro
orders are seen for manufactured iron and
an iucieasod business in drygoods.
Unsinrss in tho Central West.
At Cincinnati tobacco is active at good
prices; drygoods orders.are brisk and build-
-Xng prospects nattering. Cleveland reports
improved trade with "rolled products in
large demand. Detroit reports January
trade fully up to last year's.
At Chicago sales or merchandise show a
fair increase over last year, nnd collections
are satisfactory. Beceipts ot flopr, oats, rye,
barley, lard and cheese show some increase,
while wheat and corn have doubled and re
ceipts of diessed beef are. fonr times last
year's; but some decrease nppcars In cured
meats, hides, wool and cattle. Open weather

retards collections at Milwaukee, but trade
is fair.
At St. Louis business Is notqulte as strong,
distiibution being checked in tho cotton
region. At Kansas City, Denver aud Omaha,
trade is fair with good prospects- At St.
Paul t lie-spring Jobbing trade opens well,
and at Minneapolis largely exceeds that of
last year. At Sow Orleans business is some
what dull; cotton being lower with heavy
receipts, bnt sugar firm and rico in fair de
mand. At Savannah business is better and
money easier.
Speculation in products has been more
active, but in spito of tho abundance of
money tho tendency of prices is lower.
AVheat fell to99c here, bnt recovered over
1 cent, and arter s.iles of 23,000,000 bushols Is
lc Ion or than a week ago. Western receipts
diminish, but exports diminish still more.
Markets of Miscellaneous Troducts.
Corn closed only c h'Uher after sales of
15,000,000 bushels, and oats c higher, but
pork products are a shade lower. Cotton is
1-lBo lower for spot, and February has sold
below 7c; receipts continue enormous. Oil
has fallen 2 cents, but coffee is a fraction
stronger.
In lead trade is moderate, and in tin tame,
without change, but copper is weaker; Lako
at lo-Hc
The great industries make progress in
spite ot low prices nnd a production which
seems to threaten a renction. Pig iron shows
a little concession at Philadelphia and some
shading by Southern concerns, and bar is as
dull as ever, with a Unlit demand lor plates.
Structural iron is unsettled by the collnpse
of a steel beam combination, and the piice
has fallen to 2c, but the coming expendi
tuics by thogieat railroads promise an un
usual demand, nnd news comes of tho open
ing of additional furnaces.

The storm that was central Friday morn
ing over Ken tucky and Tennessee has moved
into the ocean off the Middlo Atlantic coast
nnd almost disappeared, its only remaining
evidence being strong northerly gales on
theXorth Carolina coast. The movement
during Thursday and Friday from tho Texas
Panhandle along the thirty-sixth parallel
has been unusual. Tho area of snow and
rain covered the States between Pennsyl
vania and South Carolina and to the west
ern slope or tho Alleghenies. Elsewhere
clear and fair weather prevails, and at the
Friday night report the falling rain or snow
had entirely ceased.
Tho condition will be clear and cool over
most of the country, and especially in the
Southern States, and amounting to a cold
wave in the Carol in as. There are .some evi
dences of a storm development In Eastern
Texas, and abo over Sew Mexico; but till
tho further develonmcnt, tho seasonable
probability is that clearer, fair conditions in
the central northeast sections will continue
till after Sunday.
