How He Slarteil in Life.
Chicago, Oct. 5.?Until to-day reniarkacy
ably little has been generally known re7
garding the early life of B. P. Hutchinson,
whose manipulations in the wheat
wr, market aro the-wonder of many people.
This morning the story of his career is 1
toid in detail:
?u- "Old Hutch" is a New England Yan- I
kee. lie began his business career in
the little village of North Heading, X.
1 H.f about forty-six years ago, when he
entered the employ of a man named
Kdwin Foster, who kept a country store.
Here he was paid $20a year to look after
the store, ana when not so employed,
ator to mend children's shoes in the rear of ]
ttj. the store. Mr. Foster employed another ^
lad fn the store, to whom ho gave ?50 a
y year. Hen did not like this distinction 1
0 nt in salaries and rebelled against it. The t
will other boy was paid $10 more a year be- j
oint wiusc ho could "read writing hand" and i
was, therefore, more valuable to his emam"
plover than Ben. I:
' Finally Ben obtained permission from c
lieir Mr. Foster to use a part of an old shed, J
,ub- which he built into a kind of store with
patched ujp doors on the side and an old
" window in front, whereupon was in- A
:hes acribcd: "Bun Hutchinson, Boots and
igb- Shoes." Here young lieu made boots i
red- am' B',oea 0,1 'llH own account. Every
. Saturday lie would go to Lynn on foot
01 and buy stock and sell the shoes ho had 11
ake made, "lie em ployed several bovs about r
of tlio neighborhood to assist liiin. When o
out he returned tram J,ynn he always v
tia's brought some "jim-cracks" with him, I
the which he would trade oil' to the boys, c
fac- mid although he paid them money for o
be their work on Saturday, by Monday lie S
nto managed to get it all buck in trading v
the with them. Ben was a natural trader. r
ory After a while he got tired of his small o
the business and decided to go into business w
eni iu i.ynn otr a larger scale. wuub m v.
ing, Lynu lie discovered that some men in v
ior, the commission business were making
r of more money than ho was without doing C
for any hard work; so he concluded to give d
and up the manufacture of shoes and go o
licli into the commission business, which he V
s is did iu 1S50, on I'earl street, Boston, h
mit After remaining there two years ho d
a a went to Milwaukee, where he started iu v
; a general business. Finally, some years 1
later, lie moved to Chicago and engaged si
otli in wheat commission trading. Benjamin Ji
cca-. p. Hutchinson is now in Chicago worth tl
md millions. The other lad employed by ?S
oil, Foster is still hard at work managing p
ver tlio iutercsts of the United StaU& Hotel a
ail- in Boston. Ho is known all over the l<
nnd State as a generous, genial gentleman, 8
lied and his name is Tilly llayncs. o

L'lic weekly review of trade says: The great T
hty wheat speculation has been the absorbing
feature this week, for though the
September corner caine to an end with li
heavy losses for sellers, it left the mar- i*
ket in sueh a state that much higher ai
prices for other options were cosily oh- ti
ver" tained. With December wheat at $1 18 .
Joy at Chicago, there came heavy selling 'j
om- and sharp reactions. But the state of ti
? tkc market is Mill against all reasou. tl
' Cash wheat sells for more at Chicago than at
".)r at Liverpool; and at one time it would J?
11,18 have paiil to ship wheat back from tl
an Antwerp to New York. At New York n
nc* the sales amounted to 103,403,000 bush- a

fever was felt in other markets and nork s<

,uj.u higher than on September 1.
lienorts from interior points are uniforinly
favorable outside of tho influence ri
i. of yellow fever at the .South. At many ,r
western points the tenor of reports is ,
fol- generally encouraging. There is less 8
complaint as to collections, money is in- d
avo creasing demand, and the volume of e:
i, at business is enlarging. The demand for u
A. iron increases, and at Philadelphia the t<
advance in pig iron is deemed equal to I

New Yoiik, Oct. 3.?The bun to-day
prints a long letter from tifukely Hull,
ut Washington, giving Senator Sherman's
views on the relations of Canada
with the United States.
The Ohio Senator is quoted as saying:
".Mr. Winmn has strong predictions for
commercial union. I (litter with him a
good ileal about it. I know of no ease
in historv where, commercial uniou has
advanced political union. It wad tried
between this country and Canada twice
and utterly failed; it was tried by the
American colonies before the declaration
of independence and utterly failed. It
I was not until they secured a political
I union under the name of a confederacy
[called the United .States that they were
able to make a stand against the parent
a mntry. Kven that confederacy proved
to be insumcient to insure commercial
union, ami ho the United States formed
a constitution, and then for the tirst
time had u commercial and political
union. Commercial union followed political
union.
Senator Sherman was then asked if
he thought Canada watf ready for union
now, ami he answered: "No, I suppose
not. That can only comeafter longeonsidcration.
It cannot he hurried. In
regard to negotiation, 1 will say that no
proposition has been made. The fuithest
anybody has ever proposed to go at
this time is simply to express a willingness
on the part of the United States to
consider favorably political union."

Fresh Developments as to the
Killing of William Morris
IN A BENWOOD SALOON ROW
Surnc Time Ago, Lead to the Hearrest
??r Thomas Miller, Accused
of Striking the Fatal UIoiv.
How the Truth Came Out.
Thomas Miller was arrested yesterday
!>y Officer Devlin, of the Eighth ward,
and turned over to the Marshall county 1
authorities. lie was arrested several
I weeks ago, with liussell Bow, accused
of killing William Morris at the suloon
ot a man nuuied Hurley, in North Ben- ,
wood. The evidence was that Bow M as ]
concerned in the alfair, but it was said
that nobody named Miller except a girl,
Mnggje Miller, was near at the time. .
Morris, it Mill bo remembered, was
stabbed in the head with n knife, and
the blado broke oil'and remained in the J
wound, producing death in a few days. '
Jtecently (he man Hurley accidentally
shot young ltitz in North Kenwood. 1
11c was locked uj?, pending an exuminu- j
lion, and his wife during a visit to liiin
in iail made some remnrkH which led the. t
authorities to believe that Miller was j
guilty of striking the blow with the
knife whieh eauseil Morris's death;
hence the second arrest of Miller yesterday,
Ih?' was taken before Squire llarry
Kiddle, at Benwood, but his preliminary
hearing was postponed till 2 p. m. on
next Tuesday, and lie was committed to
jail at Moundsville' until that time.
Cant. Dovener is the attorney for both
Miller and How. l)ow is still in jail.
