A Trim Over.

Two ladies, the wife of Thomas Berisford,
Esq, and his sister-in-law, wife of John Beris-
ford, of Hamilton station, driving out little
after 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon, when turn
ing into Exchange street from Cedar, made
the turn little too abruptly, overturning the
sleigh. Mrs. Thomas Berisford escaped with
out an injury, but her sister-in-law less for
tunate, struck upon her hip, for time par
TALLY paralyzing her lower limbs. The acci-
dent was seen by Clerk Nichols, of the supreme
court, who, aided by his son, assisted the in
jured lady into the residence of Mrs. Miller,
near by, where, after short rest, she
recovered so that she walked to the con-
veyance, and was driven to Mr.. Berisford's
residence, and beyond little temporary sore
ness, probably no Inconvenience will result
from the mishap. The horse, released by the
overturn, ran short distance, and stopped of
his own accord, without injury to any of his
attachments.

An EXCITING RUNWAY.

Mrs. Henry j. Horn Run Down by Fright
ened Horse on a Third Street Sidewalk
and Seriously Injured.
A thrilling runaway attended with the ut.
most CONSERVATION and serious results oc-
Cured about quarter to o'clock yesterday
afternoon, adding another to the long list of
similar accidents that have taken place in st.
Paul the cure Mt season. The accident Oc-
CURED on Third street and resulted quite seri-
ously to Mrs. Henry j .Horn,a most estimable
lady, and the wife of one of St. Pauls leading
and respected lawyers. About the time
named Mr. Israel Dudley, horse trainer,
was engaged in exercising spirited young
animal owned bv Mr.. A. L. Mitchell, agent of
the American sewing machine company.
The animal is high strung, mettled and re-
quires careful handling. He was attached to
cutter, and becoming frightened on Third
street west of the Metropolitan hotel, he
started to run away, overturning the cutter and
throwing Mr.. Dudley to the ground. He
dashed full tilt down Third street, and save a
number of narrow escapes from collisions,
nothing of note took place till Wabashaw
street was reached. In front of the Second
National bank on Third street, was team and
cutter going down the street containing the
driver and Mrs A. H. Wilder. The runaway
rig collided with Mrs. Wilder's cutter, the oc-
cupants of which sustained quite shock, but
were not thrown from their seats.
The team attached to Mr.. Wilder's cutter
was kept from running away with great diff
Guilty. The cutter drawn by the runaway
horse was shattered to splinters by the collis-
ion; this had the effect to increase the alarm of
the horse, which, on finding himself released
from the sleigh, broke for the sidewalk, tax
ing the south side of the street.
About the time he was approaching Cedar
street, Mrs. Henry J. Horn, who was on the
north side of the street, not noticing the run
awav, started to cross over She reached the
middle of Third street, and observing the dam
ger, number of citizens cried out for her to
come back.
Not hearing the warning she passed on,
reaching the sidewalk in front of the express
Office, when the horse came up, ran into her
with great force, knocked her down and
passed on.
Several citizens came to her relief and she
was taken to the st. James hotel where she
was kindly cared for until the arrival of physi-
clans. Drs. Boardman and Haskell, who hap
pened to be near by, went at once to her relief.
On hearing of the accident Mrs. Col. Gibbs
repaired to the hotel and the injured lady was
removed to her home at Irvine park in an am
bulance. Here she was attended by Drs.
Stewart and Wheaton, who found that in adj
dition to number of bruises two of the metra
carpol bones of the right foot had been broken.
It is feared that she also sustained internal
injuries, the full extent of which will
not be ascertained until to-day

CHICAGO, Feb. 17-Cabes dull and lower,
and the bears already begin to congratulate
themselves that the diminutive spurtwe had
last week was only just like the last wag of
the dying dogs tail, and that the biting is
finished, but to their surprise our market does
not seem to take the hint at all. There was
an almost total absence of orders this fore
noon and the wheat market was mo re quiet
than for weeks past, but prices did not break
anything to speak of. April opened at Csc,
sold to 9SAc, and few sales at 9SS @98 ~ on
the split and up again to 99c,
kept steady at that till near the Close when it
advanced to 9935c. The feature of the day
was that very little wheat was for sale and to
execute an order for quantity would have
been impossible without advancing prices ma
terially. Corn very steady and in sympathy
with wheat.
Provisions-Lower in the morning, but
they soon got under "weigh'' again. Stocks
posted to-day showed considerably less than
last year, and even less than expected, and
with lively trading prices for pork advanced
80 cents and lard 20 cents, closing at the top
of the day. Knowing ones assure me that we
are going still much higher.

SENATE.

In the Senate yesterday Senator Peter
sons bill to encourage timber culture be-
ing under consideration in committee of
the whole, more genuine asperity Of feel
ing was manifested than upon any pre-
vious day Of the session. Remarks had
been made by several Senators upon the
bill, for and against, when Senator Pow
ers arose and opposed the bill and alluded
to appropriations generally and to the
appropriations of the State university,
which he considered too large, and init
mated that log rolling was being prac-
ticed to secure the passage of bills ap-
propriating money. Senator j. B. Gill
fllan resented the imputation in
the strongest terms, saying that
he had introduced the university ap-
preparation bill, denied that he had ever
promised to support any mans measures
in consideration for votes for his bill, and
declared that such proposition coming
from any Senator would be the greatest
insult that could possibly be offered him.
He further said that if any Senator could
bring proof, or even the least suspicion
that such method had been resorted to
by him, or any means except the intrinsic
merits of the university to carry the ap-
propriation through, that moment he
would resign his seat and return to his
home in disgrace Senator Beeman took
up the subject in manner characteristic
of hirn, and things were very lively be-
tween him and Senator Powers for
while, and the Senate and crowded lob

A Bold Robbery.

The most daring robbery that has been per-

mitted on Jackson street about Z o'clock last
night About dark the express company left
a case of new hats at Frank 8 Golden Eagle
clothing store, on Jackson street, near Fourth
street.
For convenience sake the package was allowed
to remain outside the door, near the entrance
Of the store. On going out, shortly after z
o'clock, one of the clerks discovered that the
package was missing, and search revealed
that it had been stolen. As the package was
large it had evidently been carried away in a
wagon. There were about four dozen hats in
the package, worth about 500.
