BALTIMORE, May 20.-Miss Annie Ben
gerd, who was run over Friday at the
Chase street crossing, has since died. Her
death was the result OF delibeate suicide.
Two reasons are assigned for the act: She
is said to have been disappointed in love,
continuously for eight years. She had
been living with her parents on the York
road, just about AIMS church. The fami-
ly came 10 this country from Germany
about ten years ago. While in the old
country Miss Annie EIngerd, who was
then O buxom young woman OF twenty
three, was courted by handsome looking
fellow who was a little older than she.
But by some cause or other their
Love Affair was Saddenly Ended
by the young man going off and marrying
some one else. The Bangerds then came
to America. Two years after their arrival
here news was. received that Miss Ann'es
former suitor had committed suicide by
hanging. 1t was about this time that Miss
Annie became an invalid. The disease af
fected her limbs and made her almost
helpless. Her condition preyed upon her
mind and caused her great unhapplness.

while living with a family on Lomb I'd
street not long AGO she attempted To sutfo-

vent anything serious. IL is also said mat
she has often wandered awav from home

that the
Exposure Would XIII Her.
Early yesterday moraing she left the

to Trade.

New YosK, May 2o.-The dispatches to
Bradstrsets from the basiness centres Of
the country do not show The condition Of
general trade to be any more encouraging,
and no improvement can b reported.
Wheat has declined nearly two cents per
bushel during the week, owing TO an In.
creased belief that the damage done to the
winter wheat has been over estimated.
Favorable weather has helped the lower
prices, ss has also the prevalence Of bearish
news on the bresdstuffs situation abroad.
Corn also declined about l,Sc, hut reoov.
cred. The drop was partly in sympathy
with wheat, though largely becauseo of favor
able reports respecting planting and the
weather.
The provision market weakened oonsid-
erably toward the close Of the week, pork
declining about I5c per barrel. Free re-
ceipts OF hogs at Western point, and the
good qualities thereof prscipitated the do.
cline, and rapid sales by speculators helped

VIII ich the trade have SO long waited and
rise of about ten cents per barrel on pipe
line certificates has resulted. The loss of
about $4,000 barrels in pipe line stocks at
the end OF April, larger exports fom New
York and the failure OF numerous boring,
which were expected to produce heavily
explain the rise.
Little Movement tn Coal.
Anthracite coal, despite shipments West

idle days at the mines have been added 10

which may react unfavorably In freights.
The excess Of the tonnage produced, ~
compared with last year, remains at about
l,O0O.OO0 tons.
Ocean charter freights are weaker, petro-
leum shipments having declined in the
past few days. Rates on the berth are not
materially changed. There has been no
improvement In the wool trade. Trsnssc.
