The interest in the Wrattan murders Continues here unabated. Every clew is being run to Us finality, and there is more intelligence manifested by the detectives than was apparent at first. The Gazette relates the following: "A singular incident occurred about eight miles northeast of the city last night which may assist in unraveling the great murder mystery. As a searching party consisting of three ofTlcers and a citizen were homeward bound after a lone rld in quest of evidence their attention was called to a ringing sound which appeared as though the wheels of the carriage had struck a rolling horseshoe. Supposing that one of the horses had lost a shoe, a search was instituted. Not finding anything that would have produced the ringing noise, the party proceeded on their homeward course. As the start was made a solitary horseman seemed to rtee from the ground before them a hundred yards and wheeling set off at a rapid gallop. The officers knowing that no road led into the one they were traveling, and struck by the strange maneuvers of the horseman, gave pursuit. Seeing that he was being pursued, the rider increased his speed and a mad dash along the dark country road began. Up hill, down hill at a reckless rate the man rode, neither looking to the right or left, and when the top of a long, steep hill was reached the pursuers supposed the rider would check his speed and be overtaken. But he did riot do this. Horse and rider plunged down the long decline at a frightful rate, and close pursued, he wheeled into a wooded road and was lost from view. He could not be followed and paid no attention to a couple of shots intended to bring him to a halt. At the bottom of the hill he met a wagon in which were four persons. "These he avoided by shying to the right, as though not wishing to be seen. "What could have been his motive? "Was he a confederate of the murderers or could he have been one of the villains himself? lie must have seen the lanterns of the officers as they ßearched for the horse-shoe, 'and riding noiselessly to a safe distance outlined their purpose and attempted to escape unnoticed In the darkness. "lie also might have been on his way to a rendezvous of the villains, and meeting the carriage did not dare to pass. In all it was a mysterious incident." It is stated tonight that a web of evidence Is bing formed that may lead to the arrest of two persons as the murderers. ATTEMPTED TRAIX WRHCKIXO.

The market at the opening was about HtrUo lower, declined Mo more, then recovered, prices advancing c, declined c for December and only Mc for May, advanoed, held steadier and the closing was the same for December and Me higher for May than closing figures Saturday.

There was some liquidation by longs and a moderate amount of short selling, but a good many shorts were taking profits and prices kept within c range, finishing a shade higher than Saturday. In oats there was free selling by elevator men and only a scattered demand. Prices receded W(Pe. but reacted U. The provision market gave some indication of the existence of a moderate shortage for October, but no one seemed inclined to change places with the shorts when they wanted to buy.

Eggs Steady at W20c INDIANAPOLIS. IND.. MONDAY EVENING, Oct. 2, J. E. Berry's Chicago advices report: Wheat did not break as much as expected today. Karly cables from Liverpool were a little higher on lighter stocks than expected. Nearly 500.0A) bushels decrease on passage. Primary market receipts not as large as expected. Pardrldge was the largest seller. Some think his sales equal to 2,00O.0ij0 bushels. This and some other fair selling seemed easily absorbed by some mysterious hands. Visible increased LR35.000 bushels, rather more than expected, but had no effect on prices. Exports light of wheat, but heavy of flour. December wheat around 69c acts very stubborn with local traders Inclined to sell first on the theory that October Is usually a bad month to bull wheat. This year may-be an exception. In July. August and September last year the visible increased about 26,000,000 bushels. This year the same time shows a small decrease. The close was firm, considering bearish local feeling. Corn has also acted stubborn today. The rain will likely check receipts some, while the local shipping demand continues and we think November corn can be bought with reasonable safety for liberal profits, while the May option, which Is more freely traded in, will likely follow suit Oats firm. A decrease of 237,000 bushels In visible for the week shows the large consumptive and export demand, which is likely to continue all the fall, and with a rather short crop, . the long side on weak spots looks the most inviting. Provisions show very strong on prospects of lighter receipts of hogs and the very light stocks. Market painfully dull, however. Wheat Easier: No. 2 red. 60c bid; No. 2 red, 57c bid; rejected, 40 50c.
