Sudden Fall of the Thermometer.

NEW YORK, Aug. 3o.-To-day was the most disagreeable day of the season. Rain fell continuously the major part of the time.

The rivers and bay were covered with mist, which made travel dangerous. The effect of the storm was to send the mercury down 30o in twenty hours. Thermometer at a. m., 670; at midnight, 6Oo.

with a drop-weight at the other end. When
the weight was dropped last night Mr.. Con-
Quest had not attached to his belt the hook
at the other end OF the wire, but bad hold
OF the wire, and was lifted from his feet by
the Jerk OF the falling weight. He was low
cred few feet and then raised suddenly, the
mechanic who was managing the weight
evidently thinking that he bad hnally sue
ceeded in making the wire fast. Mr. Con-
Quest lost his hold on the wire after mo-
ment and fell eighteen or twenty feet to the
stage. close to the side scenes. He rolled
behind the scenes and few people In the
