A WALL street broker who said that
he spoke from personal experience, said
to-day that the following amounts had
been lost in Wizards stocks during the
last two months: d. O. Mills, $500, 900;
Drevel, Morgan & Co., between $500, 600
and $500, 600; Horace Potter, 100000;
G. E. Higginson, & Co. 100000; Wins
low, Lanier & Co., between $500, 600 and
$500, 900; ex-President Billings, $500, 900;
Decker. Howell & Co., $4,000 900; Sam
uel Boecook, $500, 900; Work, Strong &
Co., $55O,OO0. Against these figures are
the amounts which accrue to the bears:
Woerishoffer & Co., $500, 900; Henry.
Clews g. Co. 5000, 900; Hamburger & Co.,
100000: w. R. Thravers $500, 900.

who have lost fortunes in Mr.. Wizards
stocks whose stories will never be heard.

That lightning killed h;s coil ia III,

That lightning killed his soil is the
belief of a farmer in Newton, Ill. He
writes Last summer when my corn
was two feet high, the lightning struck
it, killing a patch about 100 square feet
in extent, 1t seemed to have killed the
ground, as neither weed nor spear of
grass has grown on it since. The soil
looks dead, and I b~elieveit is. Occasion
ally these spots are met with all over
the prairies. The people account for
them as buffalo tramps, where buff;aloes
congregated in fly time and tramped
until they killed the soil but from the
above occurrence / account for them as
having been struck by lightning.

PACIFIC.

The new deal in this, our t%ransconti-
mental railroad line, sets us to guessing
as to what will be it's effects unon the
Fort Benton branch. Will it hasten the
building of this,nuch needed feeder or
will it now be retarded for several years
more? Willard, the deposed president,
expressed himself last summer as being
very favorably impressed with the fu-
ture of our city and the necessity of the
Northern Pacific tapping the trade that
centers here. His friendship seemed to
cease, though, with these expressions of
good will, and nothing tangible resulted
from the interview of our leading bust
ness men with the railroad magnates.
The financial complications that have
ever since surrounded not only Wizards
private fortunes but the railroads fl
nances as well, probably had some
thing to do in shaping the policy of
retrenchment and inaction, which was
inaugurated with the completion of the
road, and still holds full sway. With
T. T. Cakes as president, however, we
expect to see a more aggressive policy
adopted, as now they have a first class
practical railroad man at the head, in
stead of a man who has only the reputa-
ton of a journalist and financier. Cakes,
as vice-president of the road, has had
virtual control Of the construction of the
road through Montana. AS far as the
practical operations of the railroad were
concerned he was the head instead Of
Willard. Cakes has been through all
PARTS of Montana and is personally well
acquainted with it's varied resources and
capabilities. IF the Fort Benton branch
from Helena will be an advantage tothe
Northern Pacific, adding to its business
and helping to make the main line a
paying investment, we may rest assured
that under the management of t. F..
Cakes our city will not be long without
a railroad connection with the outer
world. AS a practical business man he
will see the advantage of tapping the
trade center of a rich agricultural, min
ing and grazing country, and at the
same time striking the head of naviga-
ton, thereby being able to compete with
the steamboats, for all the large
freight of this section of country. In
order to do this a railroad will have to
strike the river at Fort Benton, as they
car neve hope to control our heavy
freighting business with the railroad $50
miles away. Two birds will then be
killed with one stone in building a
branch from either Helena Or Billings
to Fort Benton-and pretty fat birds for
a railroad corporation at that. The
chances are now that the Fort Benton
branch will be built from Helena in
stead of Billings, as was proposed last
The Helena route is seventy
five miles shorter than the other, or in
other words only t%wo-thirds as long.
with as good a natural road bed. The
same trade will be secured in coming
the shorter way and with the same adj
vanIages to be gained. The Northern
Pacific will probably select the route
only 40 miles Of railroad is to be
built in preference to building 225 miles
of road.

ing was not discovered until to-day. He
proved to be Tar! Kraus, aged twenty-five
years. Kraus clims to have been cele-
brating the wedding Of his brother to the
sister Ct the girl. As the shooting Is

NEW YORK, December 1G.-Stocks were
firmer to-day, except for coal shares. which
were again weaker and pressed for sale.
The weakness III these shares ea-ly In the

a cut in coal prices, but subsequently this
was officially denied. Lackawanna dropped

PETERSBURG, Va. December ia meet
ing OF the farmers AMI planters OF the
Fourth congrI ssional district was held here
this evening. twas a representative body
81 the varied interests OF the Southside
section. Every county IN the district ex'
cept Mecklenburg was represented, some
Of them BY very full delegations.
Rayenscroft Jones, Of Brunswick, was
chosen president, and W. l.. PEBBLES, oil
Dnwiddie, secretary. A vice-president
from each county was elected, and CON-
pitiee was appointed TO draft constitu-
ton and bylaws, and TO report to an adj
journed meeting to be held here next Au'
gust.
The best spirit prevailed, and the deter
minftion was eyinced to organize per-
nlanent body which shall look to the H.
terests OF the farmer.
Among the questions abs discussed by
The body were those OF fertilizers aud the
best mode Of employing labor. Every
speaker declared himself in favor OF a law
taxing fertilizers and taxing dogs. and IN
opposition to electing any man 10 the Legs
lature who does not favor such tax. The
practical results obtained from experiments
with fertilizers, rs given in the speeches OF
some Of the delegates, were highly interest
ing and instructive. Commissioner HarIi-
sen and others, not delegates, made
.reecles.
