On the night of July Is, w. T.
Wishert, residing in a town west Of
San Antonio, sent a gold watch
here to be repaired, by Bob McIn-
tire,whO came here on business. AZ
ter the watch had been fixed,
McIntire put it into his pocket.
That night while taking in the
sights of the city, he was met by
Dalton. He began to drink and
later became drunk. He laid
down to sleep a few minutes and
when he was aroused, the watch, a
handsome gold one, belonging to
Wishert, and his own silver watch
were missing. When Dalton was
arrested and searched last night
the gold watch was found on his
person, which he claims he won
from McIntire. The true facts of
the matter will develop at the in
vestigation of the grand jury.

LAZARUS BUST
Effects the Market, and Knocks
Wheat One Cent.

CHICAGO, Aug. 3.-EXactly one
cent a bushel was temporarily
knocked off the price of wheat to-
day, by the announcement that
the we'll known hacker Lazarus
Silverman, had suspended. The
wheat market here, like the
stock market of New York,
had before that event opened at
some recession from the very sharp
advance of last night. The cables
did not show any such advance as
was scored here, and the squirt of
4 cents here yesterday took the
market out of line. Liverpool was
up 4S, equal to only 8f bushel.
September wheat started half
cent down, at 61f, and the news of
the Silverman affair becoming pub
lie, it fell to 608, but reacted later,
to 6l8. Pork was also stumped
badly. Corn was kept firm on ac-
count of the drouth, which shows
no prospect of breaking.
Recovery continues beyond OPEN
ing futures, and finally reached
last nights closing quotations, 624,
an advance of a cents, from bot
tom prices being reached. An alb
sence of selling pressure was
one explanation of reality. An
other story was, it was due to the
encouragement derived from the
reports that the Silverman failure
indicated no new weakness, but
was really only an echo of
the Schlesinger troubles at
Milwaukee. At 12:15 p. m.wheat,

AT the same time the National AS
ISOLATION of Bakers will meet, Of
which association three-fOurths of
the bakers of Germany are men,

the recent modification by Germa-
ny of the discriminating tariff, i'm
posed upon milled, as compared
with unmilled, products, which
was an almost etfectual barrier
against the introduction of Amer.

Austin is not out of trouble yet.
The inhabitants living up the river

have left great quagmires half a

places. In doing so they mire, and
within three hours disappear en-

Over one hundred and fifty head

The inhabitants are wrathy, and

LOOKS CHEERFUL.
In Mexico So the Bankers Say
The People Paying.


CITY OF MEXICO, Aug. 3.-Bank
managers here take a very cheer
full view of affairs here. They say
that debtors are paying up with
out any trouble, as fast as notes
fall due, and the National bank Of
Mexico shows gain of over a mill
lion dollars in cash, as compared
with it's statement month
ago. This bank is now pay
ing a semi-annual dividend
of per cent, half yearly. Money
is noticeably easier, and large OPP
erations in European exchanges
are recorded. Continued good re-
ports from crops add strength to
the situation. The statement of
London statisticians that the
acreage of land that is under Guilt
walton this year has not been
increased is erroneous, much
larger amounts of land being un-
der cultivation than in any previ-
Gus year. 1t is believed that the
government can get on without
making any new foreign loan.

ROME, Aug, 3.-The Pope has
directed the Catholic inhabitants
of Naples not to fast on Fridays,
as long as cholera prevails. His
Holiness fears that physical weak
ness endendered by fasting might
cause people to be more suscep-
tible to disease. A meeting of the
International Medical Congress in
this city, has been postponed until
April 2. The prevention of spread
of cholera in Europe is absorbing
the attention of medical experts,
and for this reason it was consid-
cred best to postpone the session.

HIS REASONS FOR BELIEVING THE
WORT is OVER.

New York, Aug. 14.-A morning
paper prints the following talk by
Comptroller Eckels, on the curren-
cy situation:
"The situation as II stands to.
day might very appropriately he
termed starvation in the midst Of
plenty, for such is the exact truth.
The volume of currency in the
country is greater than in recent
years, and yet none is TO be had
except as in this money buying
and selling, pure and simple. Re-
msrkable as it is, this money buy
ing and selling upon the streets
and elsewhere, under existing
circumstances is accomplishing re.
suits quite unlocked for when first
entered upon. 1t is bringing out
of hiding places the money drawn
from the banks by the timid, and
as a consequences the ensuing week
will undoubtedly see money sink
to its normal value. When this
point is reached there will be no
| demand for il as an article of
merchandise, and the owner will
undoubtedly return it to the bank
from which he drew ii.
at seems to me our people
generally do not appreciate the
great harm that is being done by
the continuous Withdrawal Of money
bfrom the banks that it may be
boarded in safety deposit vaults or
in places less secure. The harm
done is not alone to the bank from
which il is taken, but in every de-
partment of business is injury
wrought, and ultimately it strikes
the very person who has flattered
himself that he has made himself
secure by his precautionary measure
in taking his money from the active
channels of trade and to place it
where it can either rot or grow
mouldy through inactivity.
because of this boarding the
efforts now being put forth by the
government and the banks have
not as yet made tho impression
upon the public mind which ulti-
mately must result from them. A
