ALARM OF FIRE.
An Early Morning Gail, But no Blaz
Found,

An Early Morning Call But no Blaze
Found,
An alarm called out the fire department at
half past two o'clock this morning and the
cause was found at a Polish saloon at lO7
East Centre street. When the fremeu
arrived they met Chief of Police Davis and
Patrolman Tempest, who explained that they
saw smoke pouring from the roof OF the
building and there was q strong smell Of
burning material ON the street Tempest
sounded the alarm from the box at the corner
Of Main and Centre streets.
When the fremon entered the building
they found the wife of the sslooukecper en-
gagged in sw, eping the floor Of the cellar.
The woman pretended to be entirely ignor-
ant of the English language. Later on when
the hrcmen were inspecting the upper portion
Of the building the woman eXpl lined that in
making new fire in the cellar furnace she
set some pieces of rag burning, and that
caused the smoke that led to the alarm.
Just before the Grcmcu left tho place they
were treated to an exhibition of Marquis Of
Queeusbury rules by the salooukeoper aud
his wife. The former was quite drunk and
the latter seemed to have been imbibiug
quite freely The husband leaned against the
bar and muttered "No fire, no irc." The
woman said something i'm Polish and then
threw some water in the husbands face.
While the man was drying his face the
woman's right arm shot out and her spouse
went sprawling ON the floor behind the bar.

Fighting the Scalpers.

ST. PAUL, July 29.-The Mime
sofa ticket brokers and the Mime
sofa railway companies have buck
led on their armor for fight to
the death. The last provisions of
the new anti-scalpers' law, passed
on April 10, go into effect today.
The law makes it a state offence
for any man to sell, barter or trans
fer railroad tickets, or other evil
dence of the holders right to trav-
eli, unless provided with a Ii
cense from the company over
whose lines said ticket is issued,
and also with a license obtained
from the Secretary of State within
ten days after the issuance Of the
company's certificate. Every agent
of every railroad company repre-
sented in this state must be pro-
vided with a certificate of authori-
ty by his company and also with a
state certificate on or before today
or be liable to arrest for violation
of the above law as a Scalper.

PANICKY FEELINGS
In the Chicago Wheat Pit Caused
by Bad Reports From
New York

CHICAGO, July % 1l.l5 a. m. +
A decidedly panicky feeling per-
vaded the wheat pit, on the Board
of Trade, this morning, and in the
first hours of trading, the price of
September wheat dropped to cole,
decline of 23r, compared with
the closing figures yesterday, the
latter being only l. above
lowest figure ever touched in the
history of the board; this making
a new low mark by q cents.
There was no news of Importance
to cause decline, but distrust as
to the financial situation was in
tensified. The New York stock
market showed some heavy de-
clines. New York sent large
selling orders in wheat The
New York bank statement
was unfavorable, showing great
decline in the amount of deposits
for the week. Partridge was
heavy short seller and there was a
feeling that the time had come for
liquidation. Some good local houses

heavier, and altogether, wheat
seemed entirely deserted by its
friends. Prices slid off by
large fractions on single
offer of 10000 bushels, and
it was not until prices had reached
60bc that there was any cOnsidera-
ton in buying. News that Siam
had yielded to the French ultima
tum, did not appear to have
reached the board. The
market opened ragged with
bids and offers in September
at anywhere between 63Ic and 62Br

and prices slumped right down to

was remarkably steady, in view of
the panic in wheat. September
opened unchanged, at 3S4r, and
sold as low as 375r, and at ll:l3
this morning was quiet at 3SIr.
Provisions, especially pork, were
neglected.
