GIGANTIC TRUST FORMING.
WILL CONTROL PRICES AND THE
MARKETS.
Farmers Alliance Is Laying Plans TO
Fight the Devil With Fire.

Topeka Kan, March "a new Alliance
movement contemplates the formation of
a huge grain and live stock trust, includ-
ing Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri and
Iowa. Frank McGrath, president of the
Farmers Alliance, says that the project is
one Of the results of the failure of the ALI.
ance legislatures to pass certain bills.
Legislation, he says, is too slow mean,
for the achievement of Alliance objects.
Mr.. McGrath says that district alliances
are being formed in every congressional
district. The district alliances will be made
up of sub-alliances. In this way "a constant
communication between individual MEM
bers is to be had
"Wc will know how many cattle each in
dividual member Of the Alliance has on
hand" said Mr.. McGrath, "and he can hold
them without selling for need Of ready cash.
a record of these facts will be kept. No in
dividual member will sell his grain to option
men or bankers, but when he is obliged to
SELL the grain will be taken by the Alliance.
The same thing will follow with cattle. We
will have agents in Kansas City, Chicago and
st. Louis, who will keep the district alliances
posted as to the market and the demand.
Upon this information the demand will be
supplied, and no more at fxel
price determined by the Alliance,
No option wheat will be on the market
There will be no specializing on grain be.
fore harvest. The four States in this trust
will practically control the wheat and cattle
markets of the United States.
"The commissioner each day will wire
farmers to send in certain amount Of wheat
or cattle as the case may be, calling on those
who are the hardest pressed for cash The
amount demanded to supply the market for
that day will be apportioncd among the dis
tricts equally, and in turn apportoned by
the district Alliance. No farmer who is a
member OF the Alliance will sell his products
till called upon.

Newspapers.

Columbus, March Wv. ]. Elliott and
bis brother, J. L. Elliott, were removed from
the city prison to the county jail shortly
after midnight Sunday by the police COM
missioners who met secretly at the mayor $
residence and concluded that since the
Sunday newspapers would probably con-
tain articles on the tragedy of last Mon
day 1t would be safer to have the prisoners
In the strong Jail than in the flmsy city
prison.
This was ordered, notwithstanding the
persons in charge oftho newspapers refe-rel
togaye assurance that the references they
would make would be conservative.
The prisoners were safe behind the
doors of the Jail before 1t was known TO the
public tbst the transfer was TO he made. At
the jail the Elliotts were locked in separate
cells. In an editorial over his own name W.
J. Elliott simply asked suspension of public
opinion until he is tried. In the news col

THE CABLEGAVE WAY.
AWFUL RIDE DOWN A MOUNTAIN.
Hurled Over Dump as IL From a Cam
non. Two Mashed Into a Jelly.

Somerset, Tenn, Feb. 2s-One Of the
tory Of the State occurred this morning at
White Hall, In Marion county. The coal
mine IL situated on shelf Of the mountains
and about 20 feet up. The men live in
the village and 90 70 their work up the
tramway drawn by cable. AS one Of the
srains was nearing the top this morning the
cable parted with snap and the cars
started on a mad race down the mountain
aide.
Those Of the men who were standing up
Jumped out aud escaped with slight n-
juries, but i3 Of the miners who were sitting
down In the cars, or were too timid to jump.
were carried down with the cars. The
wheels flashed fire as they seemed 20 fly
down the steep grade The white faced men
In them, paralyzel by fear, stared stoicalIy
At the dump over which they knew they
must 60. As the cars approached the dump
the speed was something awful, and when
reached they shot over as IL fred from u
cannon.
When help reached the wreck William
Hoch and Eli. Falk were mashed into
Jelly and were dead. William Martin and
Joseph Davis were SO badly hurt that they
died soon after. Nine others were shock
ingly manglod and torn and several of
them may die while at the best two or
three will be life cripples. There is no
explanation for the cable, as it .was almost
new and the load 1t was carrying was much
less than the average one. 1t has been said
The rope was tampcred with, but that is not
probable.

THE CONDITION OF BUSINESS.
Slow Collections, Tight Money and Dull
ne1s tho Features.

New York, Feb. 2s.-R. @. Dun & Co.'S
Weekly Revieto Of Trade will say; There Is
not much change in the condition of trade,
but there is little more dullness at the South
and In the Northwest, with little moro
stringency in money markets and complaint
about slowness Of collections.
Collections are slow at St. Louis, Denver
and Omaha, easy and prompt in dry goods,
but not so prompt as before in clothing and
boots and shoes at Chicago; about average at
Kansas City and satisfactory at st. Paul, but
somewhat slow at Detroit, while at Cleve
land much good commercial paper is renewed
At Philadelphia there are tolerably good col
lections in clothing and dry goods. The
money markets, though still generally cali
ed easy, give of steady approach to string
ency, and at Omaha money Is quite close:
at Milwaukee in active demand. and at
Cleveland rather stringent At Boston some
scarcity Of loanable funds 10 noticed, and
rates are firm.
Southern reports generally note a fair de-
mand but no improvement in trade, while
Northwestern reports are less favorable as
to the state of business. At Denver and
puSiuNsS u bttNtti no CUhtpe Is
noticed at Kansas City and st. Paul, but IL
is only fair at Omaha, not so strong at st.
Louis, quiet at Cincinnati and only fair in
manufactures at Detroit. At Cleveland
trade is fairly good but brisk in hardware
and manufactured iron, and the strike
strengthens pig and manufactured iron at
Plttsburg. But at Chicago there is some de-
crease in receipts Of nearly all products eI-
cept cured meats and wool.
Business al Eastern cities has been irregu.
lar The wool trade is strengthened by com.
parative scarcity, and prices of some grades
are higher. Trade in cottons is dull becausei
the Southern demand has dropped remark
ably, In rubber goods trade is unsettled
The glass trade is fair at Pittsburg and light
at Philadelphia. The coke strike has product
ed more inquiry for pig iron and for nearly
all products of iron and steel. Coal is dull
No change is observed in the minot
metals.
The business failures occurring throughous
the country during the last seven days num-
ber for the United States 256, and for Cana
da 3i or u total of go, as against a total d
297 last week, and 205 the week previous ID
