UNABLE TO ACT.

John Mccullough Overtaken by Pare
 sis and His Permanent Retirement
 Likely to Ensue.
 CHICAGO, Sept. 30.-Hundreds of peopls wended their way to McVicker's Theatre to- night for the purpose of witnessing John MeCullough's impersonation of the Gladiator only to find the doors locked and the theatre in darkness. This afternoon Messrs. Brooks, McCullough's manager, and Price, his press agent, waited upon MT. McVickar for the purpose of suggesting that the engagement be cancelled. They found the veteran man ager in the same frame of mind and it was decided to cancel all dates and send the company to New York. Notices were ac- cordingly sent at once to the theatres inter ested and to the printers, newspapers and bill posters. All this was done without cor sultation with MT. Mccullough and it was decided not to break the news too suddenly to him. An hour or two later MT. Keene, the tragedian, who had been taken into the confidence of Messrs. Brooks and Price, met MT. Mccullough on the corner of State and Monroe standing in the shade un- der big umbrella and seemingly having no purpose in view. There was no rain nor sign of any. The couple greeted each other cordially. Mccullough said he was going to rehearsal, that he had made terrible break the night before, that he was internally nerv- ous, and that everybody was bounding him. 'sThey say I'm dying man, he said bitter ly ''Bah! why don't they let me alone?" MT. Keene tried to soothe him and locking arms the two proceeded toward the theater When the building was nearly reached Me Cu1lough turned back, insisting that they were going the wrong way. "You're going toward the dives, /" said Mr. Keene "Yes,n replied Mccullough bitterly, 'sit seems to me that dive is just where I ought to make for" Finally he was persuaded to enter and the rehearsal com menced. It was soon seen that the actor was totally unequal to the role of the Gladiator Then Riche1ieu was tried with the same result. At this point Mr. Mcvick- ar came on the stage and with MT. Brooks delicately announced the determination which had been arrived at To their sur prise he heaved great sigh, said he was not well enough to play and that nobody concerned should lose cent if he the Leland and allowed himself to be put to bed. Many of his friends say those who saw him on the stage on Monday night in the Gladiator had the last look at John Mccullough an actor MT. Keene says to have continued the season would have been to threaten his sanity and his life. It is ad- mitted by the attending physicians and few intimate friends, although the latter only breathe it in a whisper, that he is suffering from paresis or progressive paralysis, the same affiiction which has overtaken MT. Storey, of the Chicago Times, and that the possibilities of successful treatment are dered the more difficult by his self will and determinationsto follow indulgenees, which can only aggravate the complaint.

A Rto nenI NTade In Corn

CHICAGO, Sept. 30.-The Mail says that P. B. Wear was the head broker of the Sep tember corn deal and F. W. Simmons, ex- president of the Northwestern Telegraph company, the power behind the throne. Last night after the directors of the board of trade had fixed the marginal price of corn at hty-fve cents Simmons Wear and others of the clique held conference to consider what should be done in case they were called upon for margins beyond their power to put up. The result was that Simmons wired Gould fer funds and the latter responded in an or der upon the strongest bank in Chicago to allow the clique to draw on his account 8, 00O, 900. As it happened, however, mar gins were not called. It is understood that the clique realized $1, ,50O, ,O00 net and that the deal will be carried in October, on which dealers are already selling a million bushels short
