This MOrning,s Fire.

At 1 80 O'Clock this morning a fire
alarm was turned in from box No. 80
for fire in one-story lodging house on
First street, just below San Pedro. The
fire was discovered in the front part of a
grocery store and fruit stand, which was
attached to the lodging house and
had evidently been caused by the break
ing of lamp. Before the alarm was
turned in, however, the whole building
was in flames and nothing but few
pieces of furniture was saved. The de-
partment worked we'll and energetically
and small cottage just west was only
damaged on the roof. The lodginghouse
was numbered 1856, 1877 and 139 East
First street, and the grocery store was
number 1873. The property belonged to
Mrs. Mary Mattel and the grocery store
was kept by her son B. A. Mattel. The
loss did not exceed $1,000 and the insur-
ance amounted to 1000. The alert
officer who turned on the alarm was Geo.
McKeag, of Lawson's Patrol.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD !
New YORK, September 29.-Probably
never before in the history of the Pro-
duce Exchange has such scene of wild
excitement been witnessed in the neigh
borhood of the building as took place
there after the market closed to-day.
During the day the one subject of con-
versation was the Hutchinson Chicago
wheat corner. The New York market,
however, was scarcely affected by the
Western squeeze, and closed, in con-
formity with Saturdays half-holiday, at
noon, at 10 to 12 points hi CHER
than Fridays close. Even this
advance was attributed to higher
cables from Havre and Hamburg, rather
than to "Old Hutch's" operations.
When the gong sounded for the closing
of the Change about 200 wheat
brokers were congregated around the pit
selling and buying wheat. Many trans
actions were intercepted by the gong.
Large numbers of brokers were reported
to be short on December options, and
rather than be caught declined to risk an
infringement of Change rules. No at
tention was paid to the signal, and bid
ding went on uninterrupted. The excite
ment was increased by telegram from
Chicago stating that "Old Hutch" had
threatened to send the December option
up to 15O.

SHIPS CREW STRICKEN DOWN.
PHILADELPHIA September 29.-The
Norwegian brig Hardi was this evening
working her way into the Delaware
Capes in helpless condition, part of
her crew having died of yellow fever,
and nearly all those living not being
able to get off their hunks, being delirious
from the dread disease. The Hardi is
bound from Cuba for Boston, with a
cargo of sugar. Captain Nelson, the
only one able to get around, reported
that three OF the sailors had died, and
were buried at sea. The sick men were
in such state of delirium, Captain Neil
son reported, that it was almost impossi-
bic to keep them on board. The Hardi
will be stopped for thorough disinfection.
Fosters Property Attached.
New YORK, September 29.-An at
tachment against the property of William
B. Foster, the missing counsel of the
Produce Exchange Gratuity Fund, has
been obtained by the counsel of the Pro-
duce Exchange in suit to cover 500, 900.
The attachment was granted on an affi-
davit of the officers of the fund. 1t is
supposed that Foster has fled to Canada.
The Bayport property, which has been
attached, it is now claimed, does not be-
long to Foster, but his creditors are pre-
pared to prove that it was purchased
with their money.

1887 rye has advanced 4S marks and
wheat "a marks. In some districts
bakers have raised the price of bread ten
pfennings per pound. Herr Richter in
an article in the Liberal Zeitung calcu-
lates that Germany will require thirteen
million hectolitres of grain to meet
the deficiency. The people, he
says, must therefore demand an i'm
mediate diminution of the duty on
cereal imports. The Progressists intend
to actively agitate the question. The Of
fetal press contends that the duties have
..cht influences, compared with natural
causes. on the course OF prices, and that
instability in the agrarian legislation OF
the Empire would lead to worse results
than an occasional rise IN bread values.
The Nord Deutsche Zeitung admits that it
the dearth of grain produces popular dis
content, the Government cannot resist
measure to alleviate the distress.
MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.
The departure of the expedition for the
relief of Emir Bey is delayed until re-

lexis diary written during the war of

WILD DOGS IN IDAHO.
Fiercer Than Wolves-Killing Bear
 [From the Wind River Mountaineer.l

Fiercer Than Wolves-KiIling Bears.
 From the Wind River Mountaineer.l
 The writer has had occasion on one or two occasions prior to this to tell of the fierce na- ture and savage practices of the wild dogs which infest the mountains of the upper Wind river. These dogs are not the com mon wolf of the western prairies and noun tains. They are something far more power ful and dangerous. Several years since a male Scotch staghound and female English bull-dog ran away in company from Fort Washable. made their home in the noun tains, and these wild dogs of the upper Wind river are their savage offspring. With such ancestorship how can this wild offspring help being canine terrors To the speed and en- durance of the Scotch staghound is mated the English bulldog, and these wild dogs are evidently worthy in every way of their ori- gin Speedy. savage and stubborn, these an- imals are deterred by no pursuit, are re~ strained by no fear and are daunted by no difficulties. They pursue, slay and devour, such is the simplicity and efficiency of this native code of canine ethics. The latest ex- ploit of these canine marauders of which we have any account is the destruction of a small herd of bears. It appears that about two weeks ago dozen bears of the dreaded and large silver-tip variety came down from the surrounding mountains to enjoy them selves on the sunny slopes of the Warm Spring basin. In the course of the day those bears all got together, and while thus massed were attacked by about one hundred of the wild dogs. The conflict was terrible. The bears fought with all the courage and ferocity for which the silver-tip is noted, but the mingled strain of staghound and bull-dog supplied courage and ferocity greater still, and at the end of half an hour every bear had died where he was brought to bay. The dogs suffered severely, twenty-five of their number having perished in the fight. The survivors wasted little time, however, in mourning over their dead companions, but CTS had provided, and in an hour from the time the combat ceased only the clean-picked bones of the twelve bears remained to tell of the struggle to the death which had taken place and the savage feast which had fol- lowed it.

Catarrhal Dangers.

To be freed from the dangers of suffocarion while ying down; to breathe freely, sleep soundly and undisturbed; to rise refreshed, head clear brain active and free from pain ache; to know that no poisonous, putrid matter dees the breath and rots away the delicate machinery of smell, taste and hearing; to feel that the system does not, through it's veins and arteries, suck up the polson that is sure to undermine and destroy, is indeed blessing beyond all other human enjoyments. To purchase immunity from such fate should be the object of all afflicted. But those who have tried many reme- dies and physicians despair of relief or cure.
 Sanford's Radical Cure meets every phase of Catarrh from simple head cold to the most loath- and destructive stages. It is local and consti tutiona Instant in relieving, permanent in curing. safe, economical and never failing.
 Sanford's Radical Cure consists of one bottle of the Radical Cure, one box of Catarrhal Solvent, and one Improved Inhaler, with treatise and drec- tions, and is sold by all druggists for $1.
