the proceedings. He said that Berault

was PAID $500 for his defense, and from
that amount he had to pay Mr.. Miller,
Mr.. Payne, and other expenses Judge
Westcott, John said, wanted $500 to
defend bin. He is extremely sorry
that Westcott was not secured.
After some other like talk, John
spoke of the State Prison. He hoped
that he would be given something to
do right away, and wanted to be put
in cell with somebody. He said some
of his folks or friends would call on
him every week. Then John dismissed
the prison from his mind for the time
being, and said just at that time he
would like to have a schooner of beer.
He then told several escapes of his life.
How he was robbed while drunk in
New York City, and of his 8 months
residence in Camden.
AS the train neared Glassboro, John
was very anxious about his folks. He
hoped they were there. The train
was brought to a halt just below the
station, where there was change of
engines Here a brother of Knox
boarded the train, and had some con-
versation with him. Then the train
pulled up to the platform. John
changed to the other side of the car,
and the window beside him was raised.
A second later his old father was
standing by it, and his wrinkled brown
hand was extended to his son. For
moment there was not q word said.
The father was weeping piteously and
he finally said 'Good bye, John" He
could say no more, and his frame
shook perceptibly. John then gave
way, and with tears trickling down his
cheeks, he said, There pop, don't
worry. I'll get out of this all right.
Don't worry about me-" The father
then reached his hand in his pocket
and pulled out a silver fifty cent piece
and handing it to John said Take
that boy, and get some tobacco"
Then the old man completely broke
down while asking this question:
'John-will. I come down there
and see your He meant the State
Prison. The reporter answered quickly
yes. The conductor shouted "all
aboard" and father and son clasped
each others hands tightly, and they
were parted, yes, parted perhaps for
ever. The train rushed on with its
burden and the old, broken down,
sorrowing father tottered to his home,
and his thoughts were as he expressed
it my John, my boy, twenty years in
prison."
After leaving Glassboro, John began
to feel pretty good again. He said the
only thing that hurt him was to leave
his mother and father. AT Camden, it
was necessary to wait at Haddon Ave
nue. junction for one hour, for Tren-
ton train. The Sheriff and his party
took an accommodation train, and
reached the prison just as the clock
struck nine. When the high stone
steps were reached, John had ner-
vous chill, and white pallor spread
over his countenance. In few mo-
ments he was in his cell without hav-
ing his clothing changed. Keeper Pat
terson said he would be shaved and Civ
en- striped uniform Sunday. The
Sheriff nor Mr.. Evan did not see Knox
after he left the Office and was taken
back to commence his twenty years
sentence. Before John went in, he
said that his wife was going to move
to Bordentown, where she could be
handy to the prison.

CHICAGO. May 19.-The wheat market was
adificult one to follow to-day and the IN
terest was kept up the entire session. Win
heavy and rapid trading at times. The open
ing was on a sharp decline from the close
Saturday. The curb had July wheat Off to
93c and the opening in the pit was excited
between 93c and 93Ac. The country had
buying orders placed to catch wheat on the
break and these orders absorbed the hrst
offerings. Logan & Co., Mitchell and Bloom
were active on the buying side, and 1t was
said that Hutchinson bought through other
houses. The prices went up very strong 10
94Isc, then the buying ceased. The warm
rains IN the Northwest. prospects OF q smeI
decrease in the visible supply, larger re-
ceipts here for tomorrow, free export clear
ances, etc. Thiz started the trade to unload
ing and prices went off as quickly as they
went up. The official figures about noon
gave a decrease in the visible supply for the
week of 107 900 bu, whereas the popular es-
innate early was 100000 bu decrease, and
the decrease last year was /, 800, 600 bu. The
three Atlantic ports cleared 100000 bu
Jones -Kennett and Walker & Co. sold heav-
fly, and it was called Blooms wheat. Other
early buyers sold freely. The crowd un-
loaded and many sold short. July, which
was at 94Isc early, went off to 92l2c about
noon. The action in July was 9314e TO 94ac
to 93ssc to 937sc to 93slc to 93c to 92SSc 10
927sc to 92l2c to 93lsc before l O'Clock. May
sold as high as 94l2c early and June 94Ac,
but these futures went down with July.
The market continued active and un-
settled TO the close. During the last fifteen
minutes July rallied to 93Ac, showing
that the snap was not vet out of the market.
The close was 93l4c or 7sc Il nder the close
saturday On the curb it was firmer, the
latest price being 93ssc. Corn was fairly
active and weak. The estimated receipts
for tomorrow are $50 cars. which heavy
quantity was one of the depressing influences
npon to-day's m arket, the principal of which,
however, was the improvement in the
weather The oat market under the in
fuence of better weather Tor the growing
crop and heavy receipts present and pros
pective, was weaker, and lost nearly 1c in
the value for May delivery and Csc for July.
The provision market was tame and tritie
easier but at the close there was no change
worth noticing in values as compared with
Saturdays closing prices.
The leading features ranged as follows:

British Grain Trade.

- LONDON, May 19.-The Marx Lane Express
in its weekly review of the British grain
trade says: The weather favors the growth
of wheat, which is strong, regular and hardy;
Beans, peas and corn look well. Continental
advices are satisfactory. 1t is estimated that
little above 1,000,000 quarters of English
wheat of 1889 remain to be disposed or.
This, together with the fair quality OF the
offerings, has hardened prices. The
sales of English wheat during the week were
81 ,719 quarters at 32s sd per quarter against
GA, l4S quarters at 29s Id per quarter dur
ing the corresponding week last year. The
-four trade has been dull, but prices have
been fairly firm. In consequence OF heavy
import trade imported -four and wheat have
receded point or two. Beans and oats have
been firm. The trade has been against sellers
of barley peas and maize. London holders
of maize have been decidedly firm in spite OF
the heavy decline in the United States. 10
day the weather was against sellers OF wheat
and spring corn. The market was inactive,
and the speculative inquiry slackened. This
is regarded as temporary. Holders were
firmer. The finest English wheat was
shilling dearer, while ordinary was un-
changed Fine Australian, the best Cali
fornian and good Russian was firm: Barley
was slow. American oats were 80 dearer;
Beans and peas were firmer Flat and round
maize was Sd lower. Yellow was steady.

HE WON HIS BET.
Two Masqueraders Deceive Their
Host and Fellow Company.

Two Masqueraders Deceive Their
Host and Fellow Company.
Boston Courier.
A trick that was amusing for the
completeness of the deception was
recently carried out at masked party.
The dancing was kept up until mid
night. and supper was postponed until
that hour III order to delay the unmask-
ing. Just as the guests had reached the
supper room couple of policemen pre-
sented themselves at the door, and in
sisted on being allowed to go into the
house. Finding the host in the midst of
the guest, and the fun of the surprises
OF the unmasking just at its height,
the policemen demanded Of him the
names of his guests.
"The names of my guests?' the host
repeated in surprise.
"Yes, sir; we must make a list of
them"
SNAKE list of themm the gentle
man repeated again, with growing in
digaation. "What an insult! l never
heard of such thing"
Cant help it, sir; we have to obey
orders"
The guests were as indignant as their
host, and there was nothing to do but
submit, and some very sagely remarked
that the simplest thing was to give the
man a list and let him go, as no harm
could come of letting the police have
the names, although, of course. they
had been sent for under mistake.
While the list was being written, and
the company were standing about with
muttered expressions of Indignation or
sympathy with the host, one of the po-
licemen stepped coolly up to the supper
table and helped himself to glass of
champagne.
Look here, my man," the host said
angrily, ''the law may give you power
to come into my house and take a list of
my guests. but it certainly does not give
you any claim on my wine."
"Why, L thought that was included In
my invitation" the policeman respond
ed, dropping into his natural tone and
pulling off his wig to disclose the famil-
lar head of one of the friends of the
host who had sworn to him that he
would come to the party without being
recognized. ''Of course, if you say so,
my dear fellow, l will let it alone"
The confused laughter and exclama-
ions of the entire company answered.

Chamber of Commerce.

Wheat opened lie off yesterday on the
more favorable crop conditions. There was
q good buying demand and prices were soon
advanced to 93lbc, subsequently weakening
and settling down to 92c shortly after IL
o'clock. Reports from the winter wheat sec
tons were mostly unfavorable. The Missouri
weekly crop bulletin says growth of all vege-
tation is greatly retarded by lack of sunshine
and cold weather. Reports from Tennessee
said past week had been most unfavorable of
the season on crops. IL also reports rust ap-
pearing. Liverpool dull, tone easier on ex-
pected heavy Russian shipments. Central
Missouri says no more than half crop. The
spring wheat conditions are brighter by late
rains, but 1t is claimed more will quickly be
needed again.

CASH WHEAT.
Wheat arrivals over Sunday were 232 cars
with 53 cars shipped out. The demand for
cash wheat was not active yesterday, though
there was a fair demand for No. l northern
early, mostly to go outside. Elevator COM
panles were bidding about 1c under July for
contract wheat. Some local millers and mix
ers were picking up fancy No. l northern.
but the millers, as a rule, bought sparingly.
No. hard was dull, as were also the lower
grades Prices were weak during the latter
part of the session in sympathy with the de-
cline i'll futures, and concessions had to be
granted to make sales.
Sales of cash wheat are on the basis of de-
hvered unless specified,

THIRTEEN MOUNTAIN LIONS.
StartIing-Adventu of Two Hunt
ers i'm Southern California.
Special 70 New York Sun.

Santa Paula Special TO New York Sun.
Mountain lions. or cougars, have been
unusually numerous and audaeious in
this part of the state this spring. They
have killed fifteen colts for John F.
Cuddy, OH Frazer mountain, and have
been seen proving about on the out
skirts of the smaller towns, raiding
sheep pens and chicken rooStS and pick
ing up stray ours. The chalk hills back
of Santa Paula always have afforded
safe retreats for these beasts, be-
ing very rough and broken and full
of small caves. Irving Foulks was up
there two weeks ago, and came back
without any cougar pelts. But he
brought pack some stories about the
number of mountain lions prowling
through the chalk hills that made old
hunters wag their heads and insinuate
that he was getting early into the habit
of spinning yarns, habit that was to
be tolerated only in men of years and
experience. Foulks. said he saw so
many lions that he was afraid to fire at
them, whereupon old Jake Cries
snorted contemptuously, and asked to
be piloted to a place where varmintS
were thick enough to scare him.
Foulks and the old man went up there
yesterday, and for once in his life Jake
saw ''varmints" enough to satisfy him.
They got into the ruggedest part Of the
hills and sat down to watch for game.
Presently lioness appeared less than a
hundred yards away, and Jake shot her
through the body. Of course she yelled
as soon as she was hit, and before the
echoes Of the rifleshot had time to get
back across the canon old Jake Cries
was sorry he had fired.
Lions started into view so suddenly
and plentifully that it seemed as though
there must have been lion lying be-
hind every rock on the hillside. Jake
threw another cartridge into the barrel
of his rifle. and raised the piece to take
aim, but put it down again slowly and
remarked that he would be everlastingly
condemned Then he suggested to
Foulks that it was no use for man to
be a chump, and that perhaps they had
better go home if the lions would let
'em. They retreated cautiously, and
managed to get out of the hills wit hout
being attacked. Jake declares that he
counted thirteen mountain lions in that
crowd of ''varmints," and nobody doubts
his word.
