The Rain Makers.

ST. Louis, the Post Dispatch tonight
received a telegram from it's staff cor
respondent with the government rain
makers at FL Paso, Tex, giving the re-
suits of the bo%mbardment of the last
twenty-four hours. No rain has fallen
and almost an unblemished heavens
augurs little of promise since the opening
of the bombardment. Clouds came and
went but they were ~moistureless.
After the bombardment, thick clouds
formed and lightning could be seen in
the distance but the expected rain did
not come. The only encouraging
phenomena was a heavy dew this morn
ing. The ground and grass in the park
being fairly dripping with water: This
is unprecedented. This indication was
noted by the signal service officer and a
dozen of the most reputable citizens
Parties arriving here tonight from the
surrounding country report a heavy rain

CHICAGO. Sept. 10.--Gertrude Potter.
privately married and secretely divorced
during the past three months, has been
married again to julius Daniels. An
authorized statement made for the fam
lily this afternoon adds a heretofore un-
known feature to the affair. The state
ment says: December 81, 1889, Julius
Clarke Daniels secured from the county
clerk of Cook county a license under
the name of julius Clark, and to Ger
trudc Whiting Potter under the name of
Gertrude White, to marry. Under that
name julius Clarke Daniels and Ger
trude Whiting Potter were married on
the LIST day of January, 1890. by Rev. II.
A. John, pastor of st. Paul's church,
Chicago. The parties thereafter on
tinued to live at their respect &c homes.
Subsequently Miss Potter submitted to
legal counsel the question of the validity
of her marriage with Daniels and vas
advised and believed such marriage vas
invalid. She then informed f. Lee Rust
of the ceremony performed on the LIST
day of January between herself and
Daniels and of the advice which she had
received. Thercupon both parties be-
lieving they had a right to do s the
ceremony of marriage was performed at
Lake Geneva, Wis. on June 6. 1891, by
Rev. M. j. Ward. Both of the cere-
monies referred to were secret and were
unknown to the parents of either of the
parties.
The ceremony of June 6 was first made
known to the parents by its publication
about a week ago. At that time they
were also first informed of the previous
ceremony of marriage.
The statement then goes or TO give
the details for the suit and decree and of
the annullment of the marriage with
young Rust substantially as already re-
cited in these dispatches and continues
as follows:
No actual necessity existed for any de-
cree of the court annulling the marriage
which was, in fact. void but the same
was secured for the reason that the in
~terests of all concerned made it proper
under the circumstances stated: Sep
TENDER 10, 1891, julius Clarke Daniels
and Miss Gertrude Whiting Potter were
again united in marriage. The ceremony
was performed by DIR. Stryker of Chicago
at the home of Miss Potter's parents in
the Virginia hotel in the presence of the
parents and families of both of the
parties.

New YORK, Sept. lS.-R. G.. Dun a.
Co.'S weekly review Of trade says: The
hot weather in the west is worth to the
country many millions every day. With
money coming for stocks and londs, as
well as for wheat and cotton. and with
the liquidation of farming indebtedness
prospects for business this fall are un-
usually bright. An actual improvement
is seen in nearly all cities from which re-
ports are received this week. At Boston
trade is enlarging. At Philadelphia bus
mess is more active, and the iron market
is stronger. At Chicago some decrease
in the receipts Of lard. butter and wool.
as compared with last year, is reported
for the week. but there is an increase in
flour. barley, cured meats. cheese, hides
and a gain Of a quarter in oats. while the
receipts of rye and wheat are six times
those of last year.
At Minneapolis trade is active
IN lumber and flour. ship
ments Of flour being more than
double those OF last year. At st. Paul
trade greatly exceeds expectations. and
at Omaha is good. though money is
close. At Milwaukee it is observed that
the weather has greatly improved the
prospect as to corn At st. Louis coun-
try banks are not drawing as heavily for
northern crops, but money is going south
for cotton, and at Kansas City trade is
satisfactory and money easier. 1t is es-
pecially noteworthy that collections are
inn nrnyInn at moot nnlntc anl fh,t tho
money markets are, on the whole. COM
paratively easy, although the crops to be
moved are enormous and the actual
movement unprecedented.
Wheat receipts at the west for three
days this week have averaged more than
100000 bushels daily, and though the
exports are only about half as large a
foreign demand suffices to strengthen
the price, which has risen . cents in the
last week on sales of only about 30,OOO,-
600 bushels. Corn has declined rapidly
as all fear of harm from frost vanishes
while oats are ~ lower. Lard and hogs
is held by speculation.
1t is a surprising fact that notwith-
standing the output Of pig-iron is
mo equal Ia tne largest ever
known. the price grows more steady and
stiff and decidedly better tone is OBJ
served in all important markets An
awakening is seen in the boot and shoe
business, although shipments are not at
present equal to those of last year, but
manufacturers have more satisfactory
orders, and the feeling is more confident.
Wooden manufactures are doing re-
markedly well in some branches, partic-
ularly in worsteds and dress goods. and
the demand for dress goods notably ex-
ceeds the present supply.

What Mr.. Murphy Says.

MIssoULA, Sept. 18.-A representative
of the press called on Mr.. Murphy to
night to obtain his statement with ref
erence to the above. Mr.. Murphy said:
The statements made in the article
are unqualified falsehoods. In the first
place. Mrs. Fisher never lived with Mr..
Fisher at Los Angeles, but their home
was at Council Bluffs, Iowa. Fisher was
a man of vilent temper and unbridled
habits. Mrs. Fisher suffered abuse for
a long time and was then granted a di
vorcc on the ground Of habitat drunken
ness, although to prevent scandal the real
ground of infidelity was not touched
on. | did not meet Mrs. Fisher until
two years after the divorce was granted,
and we were married last September.
The property spoken of, instead of being
S250,OOO, as reported, was in reality less
than $4,000"
Mr.. Murphy is considerably exercised
over the matter, and tonight sent a tele-
gram to the Associated Press about the
matter, in which the same facts are told
as in the interview. Tho facts about the
divorce can be substantiated by the
court records. Mr.. rnd Mrs. Murphy
have been doing a good work in Montana
and the story has hurt them not a little.
If it is so that Mrs. Fisher never resided
at Los Angeles, then the story must be
mrde up out of the whole cloth.

finishing in Ola fiat.
Nelson's owner stated that his horse
would make a second trial in thirty min
utes and the crowd %applauded. In forty
five minutes the stallion appeared and
the running mate changed driver. With
out scoring the horses got away and the
trotter kept up his unprecedented pace
to a finish without a skip.
Each quarter was trotted in 3215s, the
mile in 2:lO flat.
The exhibition closed amid a scene of
wild enthusiasm. The grand stand
emptied into the quarter stretch, sur

A SERIOUS CHARGE.
Mr.. Fisher Says the Cold Water Apostle,
Alienated the A Elections
of His Wife

of His Wife
The following story concerning Mr..
Francis Murphy and wife, who are well
known in Montana, is taken from the
Colorado Sun:
CLEVELAND, Ohio, Sept. IA sad
scene was witnessed in the police court
here today when the name of +. ID. f.
Fisher. charged with v%agrancy. was
called. Fisher presented an emacia'ed
but respectable appearance and admitted
that he had no means of support, adding
that he had good friends in the city, and
when asked to plead told a very sad
story.
A few years ago he was a prominent
business man of Los Angeles, Cal, worth
in the neighborhood of a quarter of IA
million dollars. His wife was one of the
leaders in w. G.. r. U. work, he had a
happy family and was respected by all.
Everything thing went well until the
noted temperance worker, Francis Muir
ply, came along, and the gossips were
set af1oat by the attentions Mrs. Fisher
and glib .tongued temperance advocate
paid to each other.
A mutual feeling of love sprang up be-
tween them, and many were their clan
destine meetings. Before Murphy left
town it was current rumor that they
were engaged. This was more than
Fishers sensitive nature could stand,
and he plunged deeper into drink. He
pleaded in vain with his wife to discard
her new lover.
1t was believed by some of Fishers
friends that his suspicious of his wife
were groundless and that she had always
been faithful. When he was in liquor,
however. he bitterly upbraidcd her, and
soon all domestic harmony was at an end
and there were constant domestic jars.
His career from hat time was downward
and he went from bad to worse.
Mrs, Fisher applied for a divorce. and
the court. in addition, granted alimony
to the extent of half of his property.
Within a few weeks she left for the east,
where she was joined by Murphy, and
they were married. Fisher says he spent
the rest of his savings in drink, and is
now a homeless wanderer.
His story was told in such a pathetic
and honest way that Judge Groatis eyes
moistened with tears, and he discharged
the prisoner. The scene created a SEN
sation in the police court, and there was
hardly a dry eye when the poor man tot
tered from the room.
