A METEOR'S FALL.


MILWAUKEE, July 20-While a party OF
harvesters were at work in a barley field on
the farm of Henry Diedrick, a mile and
half south of Grafton, Ozakee County, they
were suddenly startled by a loud and
strange-sounding noise, not unlike the
roar of a long train of cars. The noise in
creased in volume to such degree, during
the space of only a few seconds, as to
become almost deafening. The unusual
sound seemed TO come from the heavens,
and gazing upwards, the spectators saw
what appeared to be huge ball of
smoke rapidly descending to the earth.
What they took to be strange visitor from
some neighboring world was a meteor. 1t
struck the earth within few rods of where
the men were standing, and buried itself
deep in the ground The hole in the ground
is three or four feet in circumference. Its
depth is unknown, all attempts to find
bottom by inserting long poles having, it is
said, proved futile. Mr. Diedrick is now
engaged in excavating the earth around
the spot where the meteor lies imbedded
and Intends to bring the latter to the sur
face If it takes all summer.

nessee, Kentucky, Virginia, Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Texas. London wool prices are
no higher. Domestic quotations are un-
changed and holders very firm. Stocks of
cotton goods at the East are small, and
some brands are higher, checking sales to
Jobbers. The wheat markets have been
quleter, with prices luctuatng within a
moderate range. The damage to the spring
wheat is currently estimated at from 10 to
2oper cent, earlier reports having been
exaggerated. The result is to leave strong
undercurrent indicating that higher
range of prices for wheat is likely to
prevail during the coming crop year
than has been quoted for the past two
years. This is emphasized by unfavorable
crop reports from the United Kingdom,
Russia, India, Australia and elsewhere.
The effects of the drought on general trade
in some portions of the spring wheat coun-
try constitute the marked exception to the

ed above. The condition of the cotton
crop in the Southwest continues excellent.
