Toronto, July 22.â€"At the Western cattle yards the receipts were again small, only 60 Cal'loads of live stock. coming in, comprising 764 cattle, 1,~ 415 sheep and lambs, 771 hogs, 53 calves, and a few inilch cows. Trade was dull and prices unChanged. There was not an active demand for export cattle to-day, simply because space on the boats is scarce.

Good butcher cattle is worth from 4% to Sc per lb. butcher cattle, with shippers among them. are quoted higher, but for sir-night butcher cattle 5c was the best figure toâ€"dav. We had a better jroportion of good cattle here than has leun the cn>e lately, but trade was slow at. the best, and dragged badly for the poorer kinds of cattle. Feeders, stocl~.ei‘s, and bulls are unchanged. The dciuand for stoclvcrs is easy just now. Milch cows are quoted frsin $25 to 817 each.

First Canadian Meat Will Take Place in British Market. A London despatch says :â€"The probable sale to Chicago packers of the businesses of Messrs. Fowler Brothers and Messrs. G. Fowler, Sons, 00. created naturally much interest in commercial circles on Tuesday, says the Liverpool Journal of Commerce. "If the sales go through," said a prominent merchant, “the outlook bespeaks increasing attention- to Canada's provision products, and ii‘ the quality is kept upâ€"and that is not to be doubtedâ€"to its present standard, in a few years it Will take the leading position on this mar- ket. We shall look to Canada," reâ€" marked the gentleinan, "for bacon. and it is freely predicted that Chicâ€" ago and the western packers will have to take second rank ere long. The same remark applies to all Can- adian products, which are becoming increasingly and favorably known amongst consumers, and command their attention from the point of quality alone. I want nothing betâ€" ter than Canadian side meats, and in the future we shall look to Canâ€" ada for supplies in this and other directions. As a matter of fact, Canadian hams are largely taking the place of Irish and home cured in the continental markets. The salâ€" mon market is now practically con- trolled in the finest grades of tinned fish from the British Columbia rivâ€" ers, and easily takes precedence of Alaska. and Columbia River packing. Canadian cereals and canned fruit have also found a foremost place on this market; whilst the dairy proâ€" ducts of that colony are now seâ€" riously competing with the Danish importers, on whom we have been so dependent, especially for butter. eggs, and bacon; in fact, it looks as if we shall in the rear future be alâ€" together independent of Danish supâ€" plies. Cheese from the Dominion has cut I'nited States cheese out badly. owing to its superior quality, and this, with the dairy products now obtainable from Australasia, greatly strengthens the position from a mu- tual trading standpoint." +â€" CONTEMPI OF COURT. Sandon Paystreak Editor ceives neavy‘ Sentence. Reâ€" A Victoria, B. C., despatch says: William McAdams, editor of the San- don Paystreak, came before the full court on Friday on a charge of con- tempt of court. He was sentenced to nine months’ imprisonment and to furnish four securities of $1,000 each for good conduct; failing this, he gets a year's additional imprison- ment. Mr. McAdams has wired his friends in the upper country to cirâ€"| culate a pctition to the Minister of Justice against the sentence. ___,.+__.__ KILLED BY TORNADO. Storm of Unprecedented. Violence‘ Visits Baltimore. A Baltimore despatch says: . A fierce tornado characterized by a Windstorm of extraordinary velocity, thunder, vivid lightning, and a heavy rain suddenly burst upon Bal- timore at 1.30 p. m. on Sunday, coming from the southwest. Elevenl persons lost their lives, hundreds of houses were unroofed, trees in the public parks and streets were torn up by the roots. many buildings damaged and several people injured. -â€"â€"â€"â€"+ DATE OFFICIALLY FIXED. j Notification That Coronation Willi Take Place August 9. ‘ A London despatch says: An ofIl-‘ ,Cial notification was issued Friday ’morning that by the King's com- mand the coronation of King Ed- ,ward and Queen Alexandra will t;\l(r:* place August 9.

A pessimistic reports respecting the sullen conduct of the. Boers and tho resentful disposition of the surren- dered warriors to boycott the scouts who fought on the llrifi.»li side are “Carly L‘Nairg‘eralcd. ’l'here on} some symptoms of dissatisfaction over the slowness with which the Boers are released and provided with money for making a fresh start in their old homes, but the d'isnll‘ection is Serious when caused by inevitable (ice lay and meshes of red tape. While the Iloer colonies bear a closer resemblance to Alsacnâ€"Inrâ€" raine than to lownl and reconciled Qliebec, they are settling down more rapidly than the must elastic opti- mist could have expected when peace was made. Lord Kitchener's con- Iidenco in the good faith of the Boers and admiration of their lightâ€" ing qualities are attested by the final report of military operations. He was the real author of the peace compact, and the King‘s influence was behind him. Lord Kitchener has not said one word since his re- turn to, England to indicate that he apprehends a renewal of the politi- cal agitation among the Boers against the Crown. Alarmists who lay stress upon the sporadic instances of resentment and evil passion of the Transvaal are rendering the same kind of disservice to the interests of peace with which Sir Edward Grey has been repro-arh- ed in dragging before the Comâ€" mons Sir lledvers Buller's grievances as an act of justice to the unfortun- ate general. The last word has probably been spoken on behalf of Buller, who was befriended by the War Office, headquarters staff, and the court itself until his dismissal and disgrace were rendered inevitaâ€" ble by his owu headstrong folly. * A BUMPER CROP. Good Reports of Coming Harvest in the West. A Winnipeg despatch says: The Lake of the Woods Milling Company has completed new elevators at Was- kada, Weyburn, and MacLean. They have material at Forest ready to erect two elevators on the extension to be built from that point. Ile- garding the condition of the crops Geo. V. Hastings, manager of the company, said that the prospects were good. The crops were a little later than last year. but were holdâ€" ing out well. There was no dam- age to any great extent, except in isolated low lands. S. J. Thompson, provincial vegeâ€" tarian, has been making a, number of trips through Manitoba, and he said that there was every prospect, tlia' the crop of this season Would be a large one. He was in the dis- trict surrounding Morden and Rosenâ€" feld, and although this is not Very high land, nor exceedingly well drained, there was no general damâ€" age on account of early rains. In fact, the wheat was looking well, and was beginning to head out very nicely. It was only a few days he- hind last year, and was rapidly growing, so that it w0uld probably be ready for harvest. as early as the crop of last season. Ilere and there a low field badly drained was to be found which looked somewhat damâ€" aged, but the general prospect was for an all-round heavy crop. Hay meadows were about all dry now, and all farmers were busy securing their crop. There were a. good many bottoms where hay was cut early last year not available. They are now almost all in good condition, the warm weather having dried the field quickly. Heavy storms which have been re- ported from south of the boundary 'have evidently been local ones. Q. NEGRO BURNED ALIVE. Bound to a. Tree and Clothing Soaked With Oil. A Clayton. Willi-am Ody, a negro. who on Wedâ€" nesday night attempted to assault Miss Virginia Tucker, of this place, was burned at the stake at midâ€" night.

He asked that he be buried in the black suit which he wore last in court, because it was neat, and fitted him well. He want- ed a white shirt and a white tic. IN THE JAIL YARD. Forty or fifty people, including a dozen constables, had gathered in the big jail yard before the hour set for the execution. The scaffold had been erected close to the west wall, and near to the western wing of the jail, almost in the corner. Eleven steps led up to the platform. over which the 110080. hung from a stout cross beam. The space below the platform was boarded over so that very little of the. worst details of the execution could be seen out- side. The trap was a double affair, fastened by iron clamps worked from above by a lever. A hole of about four feet had been dug immediately under the trap. The scaffold could not possibly be seen from outside t'ie jail walls. At a minute or two before eight o’clock the black flag went up on the jail flagstafl and just afterwards the DISLIAL PROCESS ION left the jail and crossed the yard, Sherifl Mowat, in the black uniform and carrying the sword of his office, walked with Governor Van Zant, and after them came the Rev. Rob- ert Hall and the Rev. John Salmon. Rice walked behind Richard Coe, one of the guards who had been on the death watch, and on either side of him he had a guard, Berry and Dodds. Going up the eleven steps to the scaffold called for the great- est el‘fort and seemed to take all the strength which Rice could com- mand. At the top he walked to the centre of the trap, the two minis- ters standing in front of him. The noose hanging from above brushed against Rice’s face and be shut his eyes. Radclive bound his legs and adjusted the black cap and noose. Then the two ministers read out, “In my Father's house are. many mansions. If it were not so I would have told you. I go to preâ€" pare a place for you, that where I am, there ye may be also." The solemn utterance of the Lord's Prayer followed, and at the “Amen,” just at two minutes after eight, the trap was released. Rice DIED INSTANTLY. The drop had been one of six feet, and when Dr. Richardson, the jail physician, examined the body a few minutes later, he concluded that death had been instantaneous, though there were some spasmodic twitchings for ten or twelve ininâ€" utes. Half an hour elapsed before the rope was cut and Coroner Dun- can opened the formal inquest. The verdict of the jury was that Rice had met his death in accordance with the sentence of the law. lice weighed 17.”) pounds, a gain of 13 pounds since he entered the jail. ___4.___ CANADA’S TRADE. , $36,827,673 More Than in Previ-l 0115 Fiscal Year.

On Friday morning the country for miles around presented a scene of devastation. li‘cnccs have disappear- ed and cannot be found. Dwellings and outbuildings were overturned and in some Cust torn to pieces. Dead cattle are lying here and there at almost every farm in the center of the storm's path. SOME KILLED, MANY INJURED. Several persons were kllled and a number injured at the farm of John Kearns, 7th concession of Winchesâ€" ter. Portions of the barn lay about the premises and of the dwelling not a vestige could be found. Not even a splinter or a rag gave evidence that it had once been the site of a happy home. The father lay in the clover field with a broken hip and otherwise terribly bruised, and near him lay his little son, seven years old, quite dead. The corpse of the unfortunate mother, evidently picked up with the house, was found against the fence. The two other children were found in the field with broken limbs and terribly bruised but. still living. The property of J. Coync, adjoin- ing the Kearns’ property, presented a unique appearance. Maples, elms, and oaks were torn from their roots, twisted, broken and splintered. Many instances of narrow escapes are be ing reported. SOME NARROW ESCAPES. At the residence of Michael S. Grady, 5th concession of Winchester, a narrow escape is reported. John Clark. the mother :“id four children were in the stable milking when the barn collapsed over them. Clark escaped through a portion of the roof, and getting an axe, cut his way to the imprisoned family, all of whom were got out safely except one girl badly injured. The residence of Harmon 9th concession, Township of Win- chester, one of the most solid brick houses in this locality, was com< pletely devastated. It is impossible to estimate the damage now, but it is within the mark to say that in the townships of Winchester, Finch and Osnabrizck it will exceed $200,- 000. At the time of writing four are reported dead and many serious- 1y injured. __--+____. SUGAR-BEET CROP. The Various Test Plots Are look ing Well. Shaver, A despatch from Toronto says: Prof. {obert Harcourt, of Guelph, who is in charge of the sugar-beet experiments. throughout the pro- vince, gives some facts concerning them. The plots are. located at St. Catharines, Brantford, Brussels, Markham. Orangevillo and Guelph. The weather has not been particuâ€" larly favorable to beets this season, but except in a few cases where the lands have been too wet the crop is looking fine. )wing to the fact that a large acreage of beets was sown this year to supply the factories now building at Berlin, Wallaccburg, Dresden and Wiarton. the value of the beet crop to the farmer will be accurately as- certained, but in the meantime Prof. Harcourt believes that the crop will prove a most profitable one. Last year the, average yield in the plots was over 17 tons to the acre. This in 1.“) different. parts of the provinct at $4 per ton inc-ans $68. The cost of production. including rent. seed, and labor, has been put at $le per acre, leaving a good margin of pro- fit. Another very important indus try will also arise in the feeding of cattle on the piin left after the sac- charine matter has been extracted from the heels. Twenty factories of the siye of those erected this yeai will be required to furnish Canada with sugar. so that there seems good room for (levelopiiient of the enter- prise. _____+ _____._ REfl‘lOUNT STATIONS.
