KxCHANGE REVIEM


NEW YORK. July 12.-The temper of the
stock market underwent sudden change to-
day from buoyancy to depression. and the re-
suit is to leave everything lower than last
evening. The market started off well, but
quickly struck a snag. The sudden change be-
gan W ith the Lead Trust, and it appears that
while there really has been no increase IN the
outstanding certificates OF the trust the
amount is actually $S3 100000; and the sur
prise over the announcement led to tree sales.
Holders of Lead Trust became denloralized,
first hour of business. The price quick y
dropped from POS to 251@ at the close. Later
in the day Sugar Trusts became Effected and
dropped from 1151a to 1854: The weakness
spread to the regul ar list, and Changers were
the leaders in the decline. st Paul, Atchison,
Missouri Pacific and others rapidly declined,
and the losses in the regular list ranged up to
3 per cent. The decline met with no setback OF
importance. and the close was fairly active and
decidedly weak at the lowest prices of the day.
The most important declines were lead. 4sk

Youthful NniGnncrs

For some time back business men ha Ve
been annoyed by number of youthful
beggars. who, not being satisfied with re.
ceiving aid on the first visit, have made 1t
practice to call call again and then If

profane and insulting language conceiv-

attacked merchant he other day who
had previously helped him and the mer-
chan had some difficulty in ejecting him
from the store. 1t a. understood that
these little imps are sent out by their
mother who lives in one of the old sban-
doned houses near III. river. and that she
spends the money the7 collect in whiskey.

sent out with one Of the boys, Q note

More Bogus Money In Market.

The discovery has been made that
there is a large number of bogus silver
dollars in circulation. Hence it bshooves
all who have no,silver money to be on
their guard. and he who is In possession
of shekels of silver will do wise act to
examine his financial possessions. The
coin is the exact size of the good dollar,
and there is but the slightest difference in
the weight in favor o. the good coin: The
ring of the bogus coin would deceive an
expert. The differe nee, however. 10 in
the complexion of the coin. if you please
that of the good dollar is shining with
prosperity; that of the bogus dollar has
dull. lesden color. The expression OF
the Goddess of, etc, on the bogus ooin
has q bilious expression. The design on
both coins is exactly alike. showing the

Two Lonely Wives,

There was decided sensation Wednes>
day at Dubuque at the funeral Of
Robert Palmer. brakeman on the
Chicago. 81. Paul Il Kansas City road
who was run over by the cars and killed
a couple OF days ago. As the hour
approached for the funeral a woman,
Glad In deep mourning, appeared at the
residence OF the deceased and demanded
admission to see her dear husband. The
widow of Palmer refused to let her come
In, and stormy scene occurred. The
strange woman was finally forced down
the stairs into the street. At the Congre>
gationsl church. where the services were
held. she again appeared and demanded
to see the dead man after the coffin was
closed, and was again refused. From all
accounts Palmer had been twice married.
His first wife was Amanda J. Morris.
whom he married ct Waterloo, Ia. in
1880. The seoond wife, Nellie Sny der.
he was united TO at De Soto. Wis. in
1885.
A suit will be brought against the rail-
road company for negligence in causing
the death of Palmer. The case is likely
to be q complicated one. Wife No 3 has
filed petition for administering the es-
tate Of the deceased and wife No. has
filed notice that she will contest the
same. Palmer supposed she was dead
when he married the second time.
