New YORK, August /. - The great
failures :in Chicago, Cudahy, Wright
and Houghey, of the great pork packers
cast gloom over the whole market.
Cudahy is one Of the largest provision
dealers in the world and when his fail
ure was announced cork dropped from
SlS.75 per bbl. TO $1,000. No such drop has
ever been recorded in Chicago, and II
such strong houses rs these fail it Is car-

A wisconsin Farmer Kills His Enti
Family.

A Wisconsin Farmer Kills His Entire
Family.
AMIGO, Wis, Aug. 1.-William None-
macher, farmer living nine miles south
east of Antigo, murdered his wife aud three
children about 10 o'clock Saturday night
and then made an unsuccessful attempt to
take his own life.
The deed was not discovered until Sum
day evening and the news reached here late
yesterday.
At the inquest Nonemacher made a full
confession. He said the crops were poor
aud he was afraid OF starvipg that his
wife's parents were In Quebec, where they
wanted money and he had none to send
them.
His intention was to kill his family on
Friday, but he changed his plan to Satur-
day night. After the family had gone to
sleep he went out and got an axe and re-
turned to do the deed. He first killed his
wife by three swinging blows on the left
temple, and then went into the next room
and killed Joseph, six years old, and Will
lie, four years old by striking them on the
head twice.
After killing the two boys he returned
to the room where his wife lay, and picked
up his year-old baby, held her in one arm
and struck her on the top Of the head.
Nonemacher then went to the barn,
climbed up to the roof and jumped 90 feet
to the floor Of the pig sty, sustaining in
juries to the spine and paralyzing his lower
extremities

A SCALPER'S SCHEME.
How He Manipulated Worlds Fair Roll
way Tickets.


way Tickets.
New York, Aug. 1.-The origin Of the
reports that have been in circulation for
several days that the Lackawanna was
selling cut rate tickets to Chicago for SIC
was explained yesterday. 1t appears tn at
q certain Broadway ''scalper" has been
selling Lackawanna special excursion tick
cts to the Fair for $40. arranging with the
purchasers for the surrender of the return
coupons to his agent in Chicago
In order to protect himself the "scalper
expected to send representative on the
train with his customers TO collect the
coupons at the end of the journey. This
man was not allowed by the railroad Off
cials to go with the party, but the tickets
looked all right and were accepted as far
"a Scranton There, on closer inspection,
IL was seen that the return cupons from
Chicago to Buffalo had been cut OIL and
the rest Of the ticket pasted together again
The 'scalper' evidently was afraid to
trust his customers and had taken this
means to make sure of getting the cost
price of the tickets back by the sale OF the
coupon extracted, even IL the rest were not
returned to him according to agreement
The passengers who held these mutila-
ted tickets were put of the train at Scran-
ton and are now demanding satisfaction
from the road. As they are believed to be
innocent holders they will probably not be
allowed To suffer from the 'scalper's"
trick
