Indianapolis Wholesale Markets. Changes In wholesale values to-day .were not numerous. So lar this week prices have been steady, seeming to be waiting for developments. There is not much growth to wholesale trade in fall materials. The dry goods, millinery, boot ahd Shoe and other establishments art Waiting on the retailers, who continue to hold back to quite an extent. The stocks are in condition for trade to resume on a moment's notice. The sugar market to-day was quiet, the prices of yesterday prevailing. The coiWllttons of the market this week have not materially changed. The sales are keeping up, and the difficulty to obtain stocks experienced a short time ago by the jobbers and commission houses has
been overcome.
When the values in produce Increased recently it had the effect of bringing large supplies Into the market. The increase in the shipments are reacting, however, and a decline is predicted.

The officers are said to have obtained the first clew from two or three colored women in the northwest part of the city who got into a quarrel. One of them ; said she could tell something about the ; killing of Wat ter son. Patrolman Harris ; heard of this and got the woman to tell ! him all she knew. Her story threw a strong chain of circumstantial evidence I around the three men who have been ] mispectod, but it was decided that there j was not evidence enough to justify an j arrest. The officers conUnued working on the case without telling .my one be- ! sides Superintendent Powell of what they { were doing. They found, it is said, witI nesses to show that the night the murder was committed Cole and his son a*d McAfee took a wagon and went out on

An Interview With Cole. '
William Cole, Sr., is a tall, athletic man with a shaggy beard and hair that gives him a wild look. He is dark skinned and has features of an Indian cast. His voice is low, and in conversation he betrays neither the Indian nor negro dialect. He looks'like a person of good nature. He can not read or write, and shows that he has been used to hard work. It was some time before he could
be prevailed upon to talk.
“I am between fifty-four and fifty-five years old. I was born In Floyd county, Kentucky, but never was a slave. I have been in this county nineteen years, and have always worked at laboring, clearing land or hauling. My real home has been at Castieton for a long time, but I lived for n while at Seventh street and Martindale avenue, and also in Home avenue, near Murry Mill. I worked for Sam Forest for about three weeks on a sewer here in town, and then I went back to Castieton and went to work for Will Hooker. I have been there ever since.

Chicago, August 2.—Wheat to-day was not so dependent on Its sympathy with corn for strength. Yesterday corn was booming and carried other grain with it. Wheat was influenced to-day by cable reports of higher values on account of wet weather in England and on the continent. There has, it is claimed, been foreign buying here and at the sea board. New fork has been strong while Baltimore and St. Louis lagged. There has been a larger all-round wheat trade today, with lutures all the time slack of
offerings.
Corn to-day continued cn its course of yesterday, except that it opened a little off this morning. The small stock of contract corn, l,4o0,0(W bushels, the fact that the largest part of it Is held presumably for one man, the excellent demand and small receipts, the fact j that no corn is cribbed and the reckless- i ness of September trading for a fortnight suggests the possibility of a nat- ; ural squeeze In September corn. The oats market was* in sympathy ; with corn, and was about %c higher. I The provision market is strong.

Tiie story of the witness* s to the shooting is tha: they were play ing on the sidewalk. wnen the man who did the shooting came from the north. He was' under the influence of liquor He stumbled on the board, becsfme angry and ordered the* boys away. Most of ’hem obeyed, lu't Humphreys remained and asked the man what authority he had to make any one move on. The man rt plied that he would show his authority, end at the same time pulled a pistol from his coat pocket. At sight of the weapon Humphreys sprang to his feet and started across the court-house yard in the direction of Market street. The man fired one shot. The boy fell to the ground. The man nut the pistol back in his pocket, walked through the court-house yard to Delaware street and disappeared west
down Court street.
Two men who saw the boy fall carried him to the sidewalk and sent for help. Captain Quigley soon arrived, and in a few minutes Superintendent Powell came. The wounded boy was taken to the police station and Police Stirgeon Kahlo sent for. He found the wound to be of a serious nature. The ball had entered the back below the shoulder blade, ranged up close to the splne.mlssing the heart, and passing through the lung. Humphreys was sent to the City Hospital. It was thought that" his chances for recovery are slight. Every member of the department was put to work on the case, and the description of the shooter was sent to all the patrolmen. Several persons were brought to the police station, but none of them was Identified by the persons who

The announcement that the suspected murderers of merchant policeman Watterson were about to be arrested was verified last night, when patrolmen Hart and Spearis took to the police station William Cole, a half breed negro and Indian, and locked him up on a charge of murder.

Watterson was killed on Christmas eve by persons whom he caught robbing a butcher shop at Mississippi and Ninth streets. He ca$ne upon the robbers and had a running flsrht with them. When found he was dOad in a vacant lot about a square south. He had been killed with a knife. The brutality Of the murder and the good repute of the officer aroused indignation, and the entire poUce department was at work on the affair for some time. Bloodhounds were employed, but they did no good, and in time the affair dropped out 6t the jmblic mind. But Superintendent Powell and the three colored officers, all of whom were friends
Jacob P. Dunn, editor of the Sentinel, this morning served notice with the County Board of Review that he would personally appeal from the decision of the board in the matter of the assessment of the four large corporations of the city. He alleged that the assessments of the Citizens’ Street Railroad Company, the Indianapolis Water Company, the Consumers’ Gas Trust Company and the Indianapolis Gas Company were far too low. Mr. Dunn said this morning that he was much in the state of the man who said: "Who will care for mother now?" He said no one seemed to want to interfere but him, and he assumed the responsibility as a tax-payer. He said that the assessments were far too low for the real value of the property as contemplated by the new tax law, and that he believed, while individual assessments were from 70 to 100 per cent, of the true value, that corporations should be assessed the same. Mr. Dunn said in his notice of appeal that the assessments should be raised in each case as follows; Present Real Assessment. Value.

morality and education. Even the banks ot the Nile are not better cultivated.
AH Houses Made of Wood.
The houses are all built of wood. The contrast between Norway and England, or any of the great countries on the continent in this respect, is striking. The churches resemble the little wooden country churches. I have just been at one of the Sunday services. The interior is a curious mixture of both Catholic and Protestant furnishings—Catholic in a high altar and a picture of Chrls$ over it. and Protestant in the windows, seats and general arrangements. The minister wears a black gown with a white linen ruff around his neck, such as we see in the pictures of Queen Elizabeth. The audience is made up of peasant farmers. The more neatly dressed women wear red jackets tastefully embroidered and a curious white poke bonnet, the ilk? of which can be seen nowhere except in Norway. Almost every woman carries a small Bible. I could not understand a word of the service, but its general as-
pect was one of intelligent worship.
The great industry of Norway is fishing. The chief commercial city of western Norway is Bergen, which contains 75,000 people. Here are vast ware-houses where they pile up dried fish exactly as we pile up stove Wood. This is the center of the cod liver oil business. I was amazed to find that this famous oil is chiefly made out of sharks’ livers, not one gallon in one hundred out of cods’ livers. A good-sized shark will yield
thirty gallons of this valuable oil.
In my innocence I asked, "Why don’t
you call it by its right name?”
“What doting mamma,” was the quick reply, "would dose her darling little
scapegrace with shark’s oil?’*
The City of Bergen.
We spent two days in Bergen. I priced a great many articles in the various stores and found the average cost to the tourist was about the same as in the United States. I think the tourist pays double for everything. Board at the hotels and travel is much cheaper than in any other country in Europe. But the food is poor in quality and ill-cooked. The only public building in Bergen which is worth naming is the new Lutheran church, which Is beautiful both within and without, and which, to my mind, shows that even in architecture we of 1894 can, if we set ourselves about It, excel the old masTlie daylight at this season of the year in Norway is very novel. We are now 30 degrees north of Indianapolis. The sun goes down at 9:30 p. m., and twilight is over at about 11 o'clock. Day dawns at 2 a. m., leaving only about three hours of darkness. Photographs of the midnight sun, which Is only four days’ journey from here, abound. It may be seen a few hundred miles above the Arctic circle, which cuts through the north quarter of Norway. Here the sun for six weeks only comes to about three degrees of the horizon (at midnight) and then begins to ascend. The strange thing about this phenomena is that it mingles the exquisite beauties of sunset and sunrise and shows at the same time the glow of twilight and the soft splendor of dawn. This occurs, however, only in the months of June and July, and the

citizen of upper Norway must pay for it by his six months of almost sunless winter. He makes no complaint, for the brilliant northern lights make his long winter days fairly enjoyable, la Art and Literature. It must be said that Norway does not figure very conspicuously either in history, art or literature. The principal historical characters of Scandinavia, as recollect them, such as Charles XII, Gustavus Adolphus, must be credited to Sweden. Still, Norway was the home of the late Ole Bull, and has now Henrik Ibsen and BJOrnson. Ibsen is a hale old gentleman of about sixty-five years, and lives at Christiana, the capital of
Norway.
The air of the fiords and hamlets of this aquatic country, where man and nature are engaged in a hand-to-hand struggle for supremacy, is steeped with the genius of romance. I wonder that Norway has not produced a Wordsworth, or Tennyson, or Bryant. Here, more than any country which I have visited, are the elements of which poetry is made. Solemn presences, untrodden glaciers, lonely fiords. Inaccessible mountains and waterfalls—all the haunts of "that spirit which never was on sea or land”—and which in the soul of genius weaves poems like Wordsworth’s sonnets, Coleridge’s "Hymn to Mt. Blanc,” or the descriptive pieces of our own Longfellow and Whittier. As Wordspworth puts it, for the comfort of city
folk wandering abroad:
Calm soul of all things, make it mine
To feel amid the city’s jar
That here abides a peace of Thine Man did not make and can not mar. D. P. BALDWIN. CHAUTAUQUA DAY AT ACTON.

Hundreds of dead fish were floating down the river this morning below Washington street. The many fishermen along the banks are at a loss to account for them. It was reported that a boy had been drowned near Klngan’s and that dynamite had been exploded 4n an effort to raise his body. The story lacks confirmation. It is said that the dynamite

New Cottagers On the Gronnda—The Addresses.
Acton Camp Grounds, August 2.—The program for missionary day was ended last night by an address from the ReV. E. B. Rawls, paMor of Edwin Ray M. E. church, Indianapolis. Mr. Rawls too as his text Paul’s admonition to Timothy: "Be thou an example to them that believe.” Christians, he said, are the best judges of a Christian’s character, just as the members of a family know each other’s worth better than outsiders can. It is the law, of our being that we have an Influence. “Ships that pass in the night” may not come close, but their effect on each other is not small. Some one is looking at every one of us for help and guidance. We should have It said of us that others follow us as we follow Jesus. In words, in manner of life. In love, faith and purity, a Christian ought to be an example to them that believe.
