St. Louis and New Duluth scorch ed One
Man Reported Dead.
DULUTH, May 11.-Forest fires have
been raging in the vicinity of Duluth
for several days, and the city has been
enveloped in smoke. The news has
reached here from the suburban. town
sites of st. Louis and New Duluth that
the latter had sustained good deal of
damage and the former was completely
,ravaged by the fire. 1t is supposed that
it originated southwest of st. Louis and
was swept northeast by a stiff breeze.
The company's storehouse, hotel and
two other houses were burned, and 8, 200
cords of wood.
1t is also reported that man named
McManus, driving yoke of oxen, was
caught by the fire and burned to death,
together with his team. This report
cannot be verified yet.
The fire crossed the st. Louis river
near Fond du Lac, but New Duluth was
saved by hard fight.
Several of the camps of the graders of
the Duluth and Winnipeg road were
destroyed by the fire.

An Illinois Central Limited Vestibule
Passenger Train Wrecked Near
DuQuoin. Ills.
Although Running rorty-iive Miles
ON Hour No One Was Fatally
Injured.
Several Persons Killed by Falling
Balcony at San Antonio, Tex.
Mishaps.

ST. Louis, May ia special from
DuQuoin, Ills, says the most disastrous
wreck ever had on the Illinois Central
was that of the New Orleans limited
vestibule, four miles above here. En-
gine No. 2l3, Sam Bicknell, engineer,
and Conductor Lawrence, who had
charge of the train, were running forty
i've miles an hour. When on curve
the rail turned and ditched the entire
train, which liz a total wreck. The fol-
lowing are seriously injured: Miss Smith
and Mrs. F. s. Prentiss, of this city,
and John Goings, president of the State
Federation of Miners, and Amos Boyd,
OF Chicago, who were coming here to
make big land SALE Many others
were badly cut and bruised. The total
damage will be about $50, 900. The
greatest miracle is that no one was
killed outright. This is the third wreck
had at this point lately. The injured
are being cared for in this city. The
fact of the entire train being vestibuled
probably saved great loss of life, as
the train was well loaded with passen-
gers.

ANOTHER rEup VICTIM.

Seventh Death i'm the Vest HI Holiday
Vendetta In Kentucky.
HARRoDsBURG, KY, May 11.-News
has just reached here of diabolical
poisoning and murder case committed
In Washington county. It is the sequel
of terrible crime committed last Feb
ruary, when Calvia Vest and his bride
came to Harrodsburg, where the groom
was killed by JEFF Holiday and his two
brothers, in the sight of his young bride.
The Holidays escaped for few days,
but were arrested, and young jeff Holi-

ing trial. Jim Matherly is cousin of
Vest, and son of Tilford Matherly.
Young Matherly has been busy collect
ing evidence against the Holidays, but
has always pretended a great friendship
for them. Thursday afternoon one Of
the Vest boys Ia brother of Calvin Vest)
and the Matherlys were together at
country house in Washington county.
when they saw JEFF Holiday, Sr.. pass

Young Natherly caught up with Holi-
day. and knowing his weakness. offered
him drink. Holiday accepted and
took good draught. He then rode to
. house near by and hati commissions,
dying in twenty minutes in great agony.
The supposition runs that Matherly was
given money to do the deed and get ont
of the country. The coroner of Wash
ington county will hold post mortem
examination on the body of Holiday.
The dead man leaves several sons, who
will willingly give up their lives to
avenge their fathers death The parties
are all residents of Washington county,
and reside about four miles from the
Mercer line. Judge Russell says the
killing of Holiday is the seventh death
that has grown out of the divorce of a
Vest from one of the Holiday family.

A MURDERER HANGED

of Fourteen Years Each.

of Fourteen Years Each.
OTTAWA, Ills, May 11.-Ford, the
murderer, was hanged here at 1911 a.
m. The crime for which Ford suffered
the death penalty was the murder, on
June 23, 1890, of David Moore, an
Omaha travelling man. Ford's wife
enticed Moore to Allen park, on the
banks of the Illinois river, where he
was set upon by Ford and one O'Brien
and beaten to death with railroad coup
ling pins. O'Brien was tried and sem
fenced to. fourteen years imprisonment.
Mrs. Ford came before Judge Blanchard
Friday and pleaded guilty of murder.
She was sentenced to fourteen years in
Joliet at hard labor and she was taken
there at p. m.
Ford was awake bright and early, and
after. performing his morning ablutions,
partook of hearty breakfast. His
wife called to see him at an early hour
and remained with him nearly two
hours. Her grief was intense and the
parting of husband and wife was very
pathetic. Ford rallied from his de-
pressed spirits and indulged in singing
and dancing unit he became exhausted.
When the sheriff had finished reading
the death warrant Ford said: tits a
shame that such a fine young fellow
like me must die, and such death too. y
Ford maintained his nerve throughout
and died firm.

AS WAS EXPECTED.

May Starts on with q Great Downward
Plunge in Speculative Prices.
NEW YeRK, May l1.-R. Ct. Dun$&
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
May starts off with the great plunge in
speculative prices which has for some
weeks been anticipated. Wheat fell
Is cents in as many days, much to the
disgust of the men who have been pre-
dieting famine before July. It is still
the fact that the possible demand next
year, on account of failure of crop in
France and elsewhere. has to meet it an
exceptionally favorable prospect here,
while the export demand for wheat this
year, ever since prices have broken, is
not large enough to prevent the carry
ing over of great unsold surplus next
July. An element of great strength is
the accumulating evidence that the
wheat prospects at the West are re-
markably good, the acreage having in
creased heavily-a third in Kansas and
a quarter in Washington. The unusu-
ally cold weather. while injuring fruit
and vegetables at many points, does not
appear to have seriously injured the
larger crops, which
With such an agricultural outlook the
demand for manufactured products of
all kinds is likely to improve, and thus
the great industries will be helped. Iron
already feels the stiffsniug influence
and some kinds and grades are higher
than week ago. The demand for
structural iron is for the time lessened
by the extensive strikes in building
trades, but for bar and plates there is
more demand. Wool is scarce, and
manufacturers not inclined to activity
until the new clip comes forward
freely. The boot and shoe trade drags.
At Cleveland trade is fairly good in
hardware, shoes and groceries, but light
in dry goods and clothing and dull in
iron. At Detroit cold weather makes
trade slack. Lake freights are lower
than at the opening, and at Milwaukee
building strikes affect trade, but at st.
Paul trade is fair, and crop prospects
are excellent. The extensive private
advices received at Chicago as to crops
are of the same tenor, and the dry goods
trade Is better, with clothing and shoes
satisfactory. Receipts Cf cured meats
and lard fall behind last years, but
there is an increase of 25 per cent in
wool and 33 per cent In cheese and but
ter. Cincinnati reports fair trade, with
shoe manufacturers busy. AtSt. Louis
the promise is excellent, and at Kansas
City there is some improvement, as at
Denver also. New Orleans reports fair
trade, with cotton in moderate demand
at somewhat better prices, and sugar
active but lower. In short, while
present trade is not quite as active as
usual, the outlook would be highly en-
couraging but for foreign and monetary
uncertainties.
