Inquest Over the Late Marshal Ash

On Saturday night an inquest was
held over the body of the late I. s.
Marshal Augustus Ash, and the verdict
of the jury was that he came to his
death by gunshot wound accidentally
inflicted by his own hand. This YER

Runaw ay.

A lively runaway happened yester-
day afternoon about 3 o'clock. Mr..
Crane, an elderly gentleman, was en-
/ gagged in moving a lot of furniture from
a house on the corner of Nevada and
Musser streets, and while attempting
to get on to his wagon lost his footing
! and fell between the horses. The team
became frightened and started off at
good rate, making a circuit around the
Capitol building and coming into Car
son street at the corner of Doe Renton's
livery stable. Next to the stable is
Frank Meder's paint shop, ald the
wagon colliding with post brought
the wooden awning TO the sidewalk so
clean that al that was required to dis
pei the impression that any such Il
thing had ever adorned the front Of
the building was the removal Of some
cobWeDs and dust. Continuing on the
team took the sidewalk in front Of the
Capitol yard and fetched up in keyser
& Elrod's stable, leaving the wagon ia
two parts in the street. The last piece
of sidewalk is not very good place to
be caught on in case of runaway, as
it is enclosed by q railing on each side.
At the time there WAS white man and
Il Chinaman walking leisurely along |
the sidewalk. The latter scrambled |
over the iron fence, regardless of the |
sharp points, while the former bounded |
over the wooden railing, turning an
somersault or two over the |
ground, and regaining his feet never !
slapped to look around, hut started off,
so the hystandcrs say, at 4 much livelier
speed than the horses.

The Carson Guard rifle team did not

of thirteen rit1emen only three made
80 points and over, as follows: c. f.
Ri knell, 81; Jonathan Saffell, 50 !;

Brave Cabin PassenHers-Scenes the
Deck of the Burning Genert.
LONDON, Aug. 1.-The cabin passengers of
the Hamburg American steamer Gellert behav-
ed sxcellently when, on July %, 1T was discov-
cred to be on fire. They remained drawn up
upon deck awaiting orders. The wind was
light and the weather fine, but there was
heavy swell. Most of the storage passen-
gers were Polish Jews, who how1ed and
screamed horribly. The course of the vessel
was changed to due south SO as to bring her
into the most frequented track of shipping.
When the deck was cut the iron found
to be red hot. If the fire had continued O
short time longer. it must have communicate
ed to the staterooms and to large quantity
of rosin, when it would have been impossi-
BILE to save the ship. The fire is attributed
to the spontaneous combustion of tobacco
1t is believed that it must have been smoul-
bering all the way from New York.

State OF the Chicago Markets.

State OF the Chicago Markets.
CHICAGO, Aug. doubts are expressed
about there being any heavy deliveries of
wheat On August contracts very soon. 1t is
understood that Armour, Kershaw, Plank
ington, Oliver and others who run the July
corner in wheat are short for August, and
that in running the July corner they were of
course obliged to take and hold all cash
wheat. This gives them control of the Chi
cago and Milwaukee markets, and it is thought
by some that they Will first try to hold the
markets up or bull them up higher until they
can place their cash wheat, then by dumping
it on to the market trust to the chances of
decline later in the month for a chance to get
in their shorts. Per contra it is claimed the
clique above referred to will within the next
twenty-four hours make heavy deliveries
here, and private cables from London init
mate the clique are selling in that market.
The receipts of wheat are larger and
stocks show marked increase. The re-
ceivers predict continued large receipts. but
the fear of damage to spring wheat renders
the bears uneasy, and the demand to cover
sent prices up to II cents. September is
the tavorite deal, selling at ft99 over Au-
gust. Nothing is doing in the way of settling
July defaults, which are estimated at twelve
million bushels. w. Il. Baker, A. M. Wright
and Lester & Co. are reported among the
large shorts. A bitter fight will be made on
settlement, which is likely to 60 to the high
est courts. Corn is firm and oats are firm.
The defaults July reported at one
million bushels. Pork is higher and more is
doing. Weaklings are supposed to have been
closed out yesterday, and the manipulators
are said to be fixing for an upward move
ment. Lard is stronger, the production be-
