AN UNDECIsIVE VERDICT.

New YORK, Sept. 1O.-The jury which
has been hearing testimony in the Park
place disaster this evening returned its
verdict 1t is very peculiar one, and
does not specify any person or persons
who are to blame for the disaster or any
definite cause therefor. 1t finds that
while the timbers and walls of the
building were of fairly good material
and construction, the iron columns were
not as strong as the specifications called
for, 1t also finds that the fall of the
building resulted from the breaking of
one or more of these iron columns, but
that the fracture of the columns was
due to some sudden shock applied to
their exterior, and not primarily due to
their inherent weakness.
The jury says. however, that it is I'M
able to determine whether this was
caused by the explosion of benzine or
some other shock. In conclusion, the
jury recommends that the Legislature
provide for periodical inspection of all
buildings used for printing, manufact-
uring. storage. or similar purpose, so as
to insure against overlooking and the
use of explosives or dangerously inflam-
mable substances in any building where
other labor is employed.

after its sharp decline of yesterday. The
market opened generally fractionally higher
Than last nights figures, but bear pressure
knocked cordage down over l per cent
farther, while Missouri Pacific and Rock
Island exhibited special weakness for
snort time. The effect on the latter was in
all probability due TO the general expectation
that the government crop report would show
lower average for corn than last month

the grsngers. The demand, however soon

spect it merely responded to the action of
the grain market The packers were bidding
for the October option, and selling the Janu-
airy. This constant feeding out of the
product for January is shown in the fact that
the decline in the premium previously ex-
listing for that month, more especially in lard
and ribs. There is an actual discount of
1ll2c in January, compared with October
ribs. January pork still maintains good
premium from the fact of its superiority in
speculative sense, but to-day it gained only
15c on yesterdays closing prices, while Oc-
tober advanced 27l2c. One cause of the
strength in provisions to-day was the report
of the stocks of cut meats in the country,

The New Banking Law.
Special to the Globe.

MITCHELL, S. d., Sept. 1O.-To-day is
the limit fixed by the new banking law
of this state which compels all banks
and bankers to quit transacting a bank
ing business unless they have complied
with the requirements of the new bank
ing law passed by the legislature last
winter. A failure to comply with the
law is made misdemeanor punishable
by fine of from $500 to $1,000. The
test case taken to the supreme court
will doubtless be decided against the
bankers. as similar law passed by the
North Dakota legislature has been af-
firmed by the supreme court of that
state.
