EXCITEMENT.

CHICAGO, Aug 29.-There was great
excitement ON Change to-day over the cry
of 'shot wheat, raised by the shorts. 1t

most of the rumors, started on Change to

of the Board of Trade and special com
mittee at once set about examining the
CITY elevator, where the heated grain was
said to be- It was grain owned by the
Cincinnati clique. They examined twenty
eight bins finding one containing 5000
bushels out of condition. 1t was cleared
forthwith, and the wheat taken to the
mills, The committee reported the finding

some unknown reason, withheld the report.
The investigation viii proceed tomorrow
and continue till all the wheat in store

elevator owners admit that they are little
anxious about the large amount on hand,
especially as some is old grain, having
been in store over year, and be
cause the season has been praticu-
larly unfavorable They have late
" been handling and blowing
it over to avert any damage by heating.
Chief Inspector Parker who has held that
Office for twenty years, affirms that despite
the weather he has never yet seen wheat in
elevator in better condition at TINS time OF
the year than now. He has no fears of a
serious outcome of the present excitement.
The clique operated sfreely this morning
and their doings created seme mystifica-
tions among other dealers They bought
heavily last week, wheat for September
delivery through their brokers. They have
ordinarily traded largely through their
brokers also to mislead the crowd, but this

ket with orders to sell their entire holding.
The crowd believing it was blind readily
took the wheat at 127 to 131 and between
those figures the clique disposed of about
all their holdings. The crowd seeing they
had been played, were sharp enough to
turn with the tide and generally recoupled
their losses before the day closed. while
the genial lambs from the outside were as
usual completely shorn.

A QUEER HoNEYMOoN.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. 30.-Monday
night last Judge William Giles, of Balti-
more, late on the criminal court bench
there, came to this city with his wife, hav
ing been married last week a second time
and stopped at the new Dcnison Hotel
During the evening he drank considerably,
and toward morning became somewhat
violent, threatening to kill his wife, and
making attempts in that direction. The
hotel people were unable to control him.
and the aid of the police was invoked, not,
however, until he had demolished consid-
cradle furniture and done other damage
He was evidently suffering from mania
potu, but on his way to the station house
he seemed for the first time to realize his
condition, and by tears and lamentations
he Influenced the officers to take him back
to the hotel. He afterward became violent
again. and it was with the utmost difficulty
that he was prevented from taking his
wife's life. This morning, however, he
had recovered his reason, and was sorrow
full and contrite. His wife evidently was
not getting that enjoyment out of the
honeymoon that she had right to expect,
and accordingly started with her husband
back home on the first train.

RIGGS RICHES.

WASHINGTON, Aug, 30.-Those who
were intimate with the late George W.
Riggs say that he made will some time
ago by which he left..a munificent bequest to
the city of Washington, to be used for the
endowment and perpetuation of magnii-
cent charity. Just what the character of
it was according to the intention of Mr..
Riggs himself is not announced. but it is
believed that it was founding asylum,
Or, possibly rich gift to some of the or
phan asylums which are now in existence
in the district. 1t is rather thought, how
ever that the money will be found to have
been set apart for the founding of some
new institution of some character, and, it
is said that it will become known, when
the will is admitted to probate, that the
bequest will be not less than some So, 000,-
600. There is considerable retcence,
about the matter so far, because Mr..
Briggs death being unlocked for, until
few days of it's occurrence, his friends had
no consultation with him as to the charac-
ter of his bequests, and it is not known
but that, in the meantime, he may have
made some change in the body of the doc
ument, or altered its intent by means of a
codicil, of which no one is yet aware.

GRANT AS A BUSINESS MAN.

Long Branch Letter in Atlantic Constitution.
Every day about 4 o'clock Gen. Grant
comes dashing along Ocean avenue behind
fine team of bays that draws his heavy
T cart. Ordinarily he drives alone; some
times his son Ulysses is with him, and oc
casionally one sees Richard j. Dobbins,
who owns half of the Branch and plenty
of Philadelphia as well, in the seat beside
him. Grant is now in the financial vortex.
He haunts Wall street, although not as a
general speculator, talks stock and Mexi-
can railroad prospects continually, has
become brusque in manner, more dashing in
dress and more talkative than ever before.
Sometimes he wears a blue neektie with a
red dot in it, and occasionally notice the
plaid pattern of his trousers is very large
as to squares and sensational as to effect.
They say he is making money"
George W Childs, the owner of the
Philadelphia Ledger, and one of the biggest
hearted, most generous souls that ever ex-
listed, says that Grant came back from his
trip around the world comparatively a
poor man, and before the Chicago canvass
was over he was poor man, in fact. Now,
however, he is worth clear three. quarters
OF million, made in conservative stock
speculation, in which he was guided, and is
yet, by Jay Gould.
Grant has nice time at Long
Branch His cottage adjoins that of
Mr. Childs, is near General Horace Por-
ter's, is few lots distant from Pullman 5
the palace car man, is only across the
ocean drive from Daniel Dougherty's (he's
the man who nominated Hancock), and is
surrounded by the homes of others who
make the neighborhood as distinguished
by the eminence of its residents as they do

course Then General goes to New York

every day, leaving on the $50 train, and
going by boat from Sandy Hook, returning
the same way, leaving New York at 4. He
remains the lion of the branch notwithstand-
ing the counter attraction of Jay Gould,
who lives up toward Atlanticville and
about three miles from Grants cottage to-
ward the north. Gould, however, is rare
ly seen. Sometimes a glimpse of him may
be had as one whirls along Ocean avenue,
as he rocks himself in red chair in vine-
shaded corner of the veranda of his splen-
did cottage Again at dusk there is some
times clatter of hoofs and rattle of
wheels on the avenue, and as a splendid
team of blacks dart by, one catches sight
of a solitary figure on the high box-se at.

DANGER ANERTED

CLEVELAND, o.. Aug, 29.-Those who
witnessed last nights confiagration were
treated to the remarkable sight of long
train, nearly every car ablaze. moving from
the from the front of the burning lumber
yard to a point several hundred yards
south. This movement, ordered by reti-
cent but determined railway official, was
incomprehensible to the firemen. but when
the fire in the cars was put out and the
train was at a safe distance, the railway
man explained that in the middle of the
train was an iron car loaded with powder.
Had the car not been promptly removed,
the intense heat would have caused dis
astrous explosion, as many thousands OF
people were collected in the vicinity watch
ing the fire.
