George Gihnour, of Fingal, Ont., one of those who has been in- teresting himself on behalf of the shareholders of the defunct Farmrrs' Baiik, of Toronto' has arranged with Hon. W. T. White, minister of fin- ance; to hear a deputation in the near future, when the government will be asked to grant some relief to depositors and shareholders. They take the ground that had it not been for the dismal failure in which thous- ands of people lost all they possessed in the world, there would have been no revision of the bank act, and as all of the people of Canada aro to benefit by'the revision, the country should be willing to compensate those who lost. The cost of living is again advanc- ing, according to local brokers, who have been advised that the fruit - growers of California have organized and have fixed a price on all "spot" goods and "futures." Seeded raisins have been going up for some time, and brokers report that they will soar considerably higher in the next few months. Prunes—well, they are advancing too.

Coffee still remains about the same, it seemingly being a drug on the market. Several months ago it took a big drop, and s.nce then it has been steadily going down, until it seemed as if the bottom would drop out, but, brokers report that they ex- pect -o see it take a sudden leap sky-. and some of these days. iVilliaru Landerkialias . Murphy, arrested at Windsor recently in con- nection with robberies at Brussels, Seafortli and Harriston, was senten- ced;to twelve years in Kingston pen- itentiary an Saturday at Goderich by Judge Holt, Murphy was regarded by the police as the leader of the gang Which early in the winter perpetrated a number of daring burglaries in this district. His companion, young Thos McDonald, who was arrested with hiaz in. Windsor, was dismissed, but another of the gang, Edward Burling, of, Goderich, who confessed' was given four years in Kingston. Murphy's record is one of continual crime, and Crown Aotorney Seager, who conduct- ed the crown's case had no difficulty in proving that with the exception of three yards, Murphy has spent the last fifteen yerrs in prison in the Stat- es•for burglaries of various kinds. Murphy was suspected by the police as being one of the gang which engag- ed in a desperate pistol duel at Cred- iton when they were discovered trying to'rob the postoffice safe. It was lagely due to the excellent Work of Mr. B. S. Murray, of London that Murphy and McDonald were captur- ed nt Windsor. As a result of a robbery of a parcel of valuable furs on a train going up the Bruce, the express people started to investigate, and Mr.. Murray spent some time in Windsor, as a result of which a great Mass o evidence directlyf con- necting Murphy with the case was unearthed. The World's Greatest Stove...
