PEACE FOR SIAM.
Official Announcement That the
Blockade Has Been Raised.

DlONNo0O AAoS DVCu NoISCus
LONDON, Aug. 2.-lt was announced in
the House of Commons this afternoon that
the French blockade of Bangkok had been
raised.
Immediately after Sir Edward Gray had
announced the raising Of the blockade,
Sir Richard Temple and Hon. George
Curzon. Conservatives. began their daily
task of harrying the Government with
minute questions about the negotiations
and with insinuations that the action of
the Foreign Office had been incompetent.
Sir Edward Gray rcproached them with
trying to EN- mbarrass the Government while
the negotiations of the most delicate char
acter were pending.
The position of affairs required him
still to maintain considerable reserve.
He was satisfied that it would be found
when the result of the negotiations was
disclosed that the action of the Foreign
Office would be shown to be as strong as
could be desired. Balfuur assured the
Government that the opposition did not
intend to embarrass negotiations. On the
contrary, the opposition generally admit
ted that little fault could be found with
the action of the Ministers.
PARIS, Aug. 2.-The Government is ad-
vlsed that Captain Thoreux has left
Saigon with body of troops for the Up

The Big Man Stepped In to Pre-
aVent a Crash.
Three Prominent Firms, Carried Down
by Cudahy, Are Forced Into
Liquidation.
Special to THE MORNING CALL.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-It looked as If yester-
days thunderclaps had cleared the atmos-
phere of the Board of Trade at the OPEN
ing this morning September wheat
started 25sc higher, at 60, with some sales
at 6O1ac. but later sold off to $3.50. Septem-
Der pork opened unchanged at S12. but
weakened to S11 40; September lard was
2hc higher. at Sc 62h; September ribs 2Oc
up. at Sc 80.
The buOyancy. however, was Short-lived.
Soon after the opening the failure Of D..
| Eggieston & Co.. a widely known firm,
engaged in carrying lard and pork for the
Cudahy- Wright clique. was announced.
| The announcement was accompanied by
that of the failure of George G. Parker &
Co., a well-known commission firm. Then
came the suspension of Thomas Greigg, a
| fairly prominent trader. All three had
been rather expected and all three were
more or less closely connected with the
Jack Cudahy deal. This caused a break
of over cents in wheat to 5SAc, but a
rally quickly followed to 601Rc. Ribs re-
mained strong and advanced 62Bc to
Sc So. Pork dropped to S11, but recovered
to S12 25. Lard followed pork.

was carrying. The Eggeston trouble, it
was asserted, grew out of the hog product.
not grain. The consequence was ten
dency to make wheat firm.
The large seaboard clearaIces were also
bulling factor. Before noon liquidation
seemed completed. and all the pits were
comparatively quiet and steady. Armour
was a large buyer of pork at S12, the
Anglo American Company purchased
much lard, and Nelson Morris took hold
of ribs.
At this time wheat showed an advance
of cents over last night, corn was up IL C
| to &c and pork was unchanged, lard 321bc
higher and ribs 30 cents.
The failures of Eggleston & Co. and
Parker & Co.. also that of Greigg, grew out
Of Yesterdays crash. and the fact that
Armour assumed Eggleston's great hold
ings Of wheat is all that saved the market
from another great panic. c. b. Eggles-
ton. better known as SANDY" was one OF
the leading figures of the Kershaw failure at
the time of the collapse ofthe Fidelity Bank
corner six years ago. On that occasion he
lost 100000. but he had some left. and his
wife also had $1,5OOOOO. 1t Is believed be
has been let in this time for about $500. 900
personally, and the firm of d. Eggleston g.

Parker & Co. were doing business for the
Cudahy Wright Fairbank combination.
and their failure to-day was the logical
sequence. Their losses are regarded as
about S500.0OO. Thomas Greigg has never
had much trade aud his losses are esti-
mated at about $4,000.

BLOOD, MORE BLOOD.
Waite Still Wants to Wade in 1t Up
to His Horses Bride.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-The first speaker of
the afternoon was John B. Lemon of New
York, representative of the Executive
Council af the American Federation of
Labor. The federation of people. he said
were silver men because they were union
men, and 500, 600 OF them were advocates
of the free and unlimited coinage of silver.
There was tremendous applause when
Governor Waite of Colorado was intro
duced. as number of enthusiastic dele
gates had beeN bowling for him for two
days. and he was unable to begin for
some minutes. When he did begin he
spoke At great length. He asserted that
since 1878 no Congress has convened but
that ma]orities in both houses were in
favor OF restoring the free coinage OF
silver. Congress had never been able to
enact such law because the President,
whether Republican or Democrat, had
always been dominated by Wall street and
had stood ready to impose his veto, equal
TO two-thiids vote in both houses OF
Congress. The effect Of the gold bug
conspiracy, which has denied free coinage
to silver since 1873. has been to increase
the purchasing power of money, or, to put
the statement in another form, to decrease
the value Of all commodities. Abraham

held good.
The decision will be unanimous on all
points, save one. which Justice Harlan

The tribunal is now discussing the aues-
