OF an accident, the very way in which

fire broke out in what is known as the

was certain that the business part Of the

soon produced perfect hurricane of

of the business portion of the little city.

GRAIN FREIGHT FREE TO LIVER
POOP.
The speculative holding Of grain at
Chicago for higher prices, led, in the fore
part of April, to some curious results. The
export of grain had been stopped, the mar
ket rates at Liverpool being lower than
those of Chicago. The railway officials
refused to lower their rates, saying that
they saw no good reason for sacrificing
their revenues to enable the promoters of
CORNERS" to adjust the question of supply
and demand between themselves and con
sumers. The managers Of certain ocean
steamship lines having steamers billed ter
early departure were in great straits for
freight and even begged for grain TO be
carried rs ballast, freight free. A press
dispatch from Chicago, April Z, said that
the day before the agents OF the eastern
lines terminal there, were asked by wire if
they could not furnish small carsees on
condition that no charge should be made
for transporting it by water to Liverpool
Again, on the It'll, the steamship people
renewed their appeal, offering al additional
inducement q premium of seven cents pei
hundred pounds to the shipper. The Offer
of premium was made by the four lines
running between Boston and Liverpool
No offers of so unusual nature were re-
ceived from the New York hnes.-Scien

Farmers are taking advantage of the

crowned with success in the making OF
good crops, and that floods and droptlls
may spare us; as. in fact, just now 1t is

son of the late o. Ell. p. Moore, is one of
our own boys, born amongst US, whose
early life and service in the army are too
well known here to repeat. A few years
since Dan believing that a young man
should strike out in the wide world and
make a record for himself did not take
Horace Greeleys advice and go west, but
wen. east to Chicago, where he entered
upon the study of medicine and worked his
way up through many difficulties, gradua-
ting at Rush Medical College, and to-day
stands self made man of both ability and
honor, and there is perhaps no more sue

his pluck and energy.
