CHICAGO, July 31.-"Old Hutch, the
Nestor Of the wheat pit, said two months
ago that wheat would 60 to 60 cents
Last night he said it had reached bottom
and that it would soon move upward
and keep moving. The old man is not
trading, but he watches the markets
closely.
The liquidation has been enormous
and may continue for fe days longer
The Board OF Trade has gone through a
trying week. Values have shrunk much
below anything dreamed of except by
the mo t ultra bears, and losses have
been severe. Yet so conservative were
merchants and so well protected that no
failures have been chronicled.
Wheat. of course, received the brunt
of the shock, declining more than s
cents from the high, and dropping g.
cents in the last three days. The
potent factor, first, last and all the
time, was the depression in the money
market the legitimate influences had
little or no weight.

NEW YORK, July 81.
In many Of the savings banks notices
was pasted to day TO the effect the bank
Of withdrawal rule adopted by the saw
ings banks lsstIweek was in effect One or
two banks made the limit of withdrawal
100 requiring the legal notice for with
drawal Of greater sums.
The action of the banks has not caused
what might be called panic, but there
were heavy Withdrawals at most Of the
savings banks and doubtless the check
on depositors will go into effect gener-
ally to morrow.
At thief Seamans Savings Bank there
were 25O people demanding their money
at the Dry Dock Savings Bank, 500; at
the Bowery Savings Bank, 200; at the
Union Dime Savings oBank, 100; at the
German Savings Bank, 300; at the
Bleecker Street Savings Bank, 400.
At the latter institution the crowd was
so haotic and disorderly that the police
were sent for
The police formed the crowd in line
and each depositor drew out all his book
called for. The legal notice was not
asked for by the bank, but the directors
will probably order the rule enforced
after to-day
Bankers are Of the opinion that II the
rule is not enforced tomorrow senseless
lun will result and millions of dollars
taken out Of circuit. All the banks are
sound and their money Is we'll invested
but to force the instant payment Of the
immense sums deposited would wreck
many of them. In Brooklyn, Williams
burgh and in several cities throughout
the state heavy withdrawal deposits are
reported.
Several Brooklyn banks compelled de.
positors to give the legal notice but the
rules have not gone into effect generally.
The crowds at the savings banks in.
creased toward noon and at that hour
most of the savings institutions posted
the rule governing Withdrawals.
Money at noon on the stock exchange
was 4S per cent. and the Clearing House
Loan Committee issued a million dollars
worth of clearing house certificates with
a promise of million more before the
day ended 10 ease the market.
Nearly half million Of gold came from

A STORY of cruel neglect was told at this office a few days ago. A few weeks since prospector appeared at cattle camp on the desert west of here and asked for something to eat. He was refused and started of toward Yuma. His dead body was afterward found and it is supposed that the unfortunate prospector died of starvation.-Yuma Times.
 Such a thing may have happened on the Colorado desert, as a man being refused something to eat at a COW camp, but was never heard of in this neck of the woods. Any one, no matter what his nationality or previous condition of servitude, can always have something to eat and place to sleep at any cattle ranch in this county, for a simple thank you the next morning.

False Registration.

Mir. D. Golf, an ex-legislator of Solomonville, Graham county. is in the city to-day, Mr. Golf reports an interesting state of affairs in Gra- ham county and some felling exist ing between the county officials and other citizens.
 The district court is in session, but must close by limitation on Saturday. The taxpayers are mak- ing some serious charges against the office holders.
 It is charged that a large illegal registration was made for the pur- pose of raising Graham county from second-class to frst-cIass county. The result of this increase and the promotion of the county has been to double the salaries of the official.
 The grand jury now in session is investigating the charges, and the officials thus benefited by the in creased registration are beginning a hard fight against the parties who exposed the alleged frauds. Dis- trict Attorney Wiley Jones has been suspended pending the investiga. tion and Attorney General Frank Heney has been asked to conduct the investigation.
 Several officials and an attorney in high standing outside of the county are said to be implicated in the alleged frauds. It is thought more than probable that number of indictments will be found which will result in the return of Graham to the second class list of counties, The grand jury, made up of the best citizens, is thoroughly alive to the situation and is bound to go to the bottom of the whole matter.-Phe- nix Herald.

Another Reported Rich Strike.

Another big mining exceitement has sprung up. This time it is near CT home and those who leave for the rich find will not be compelled to spend months in determining it's character, as was the case in the San Juan excitement. News comes from Aubre valley, about 80 miles northwest of this city, that several Colorado miners who passedthrcugh this city several months ago on their way west, have discovered an immense gold bearing ledge, 1900 feet in width, running in length for distance of many miles in the di- rection of the Grand Canon, and heavily impregnated with free gold. Our information comes second handed and many of the details of the strike are necessarily meagre. However, our informant says that something like twenty-five or thirty claims have already been located and that the result of rough tests on ore taken from a number of claims shows that it runs a way up in the thousands. A number of our citizens have large bands of sheep in the vicinity of the reported strike and they are patiently awaiting news, feeling sure that, if the strike has been made, some one of their men would hasten to town with the news. In the meantime not much credit is being given the report aud until definite information is received the people tere are inclined to look upon the report with a certain de-
 gree of suspicion Williams News.

THE Baltimore Sun hits the nail square on the head in the following and it is as applicable in local as in national politics. It says Waving the general question how far re- movals from office, for political req sons only, are consistent with the Democratic platform, one thing would seem to be indisputably clear viz: That there is no gain to the party or to the administration that can result from removing an avow- ed Republican to make room for an insincere or doubtful Democrat. In politics, as in war, an open enemy is always preferred to a secret one, or to a deceitful and treacherous friend. It is impossible to see, therefore, how Mir. Cleveland's ad- ministration is likelyto be strength ened by the appointment to office, in the place of Republicans who may resign, be removed or whose term may expire, of Democrats who are known to be inimical to, or, at least, not in sympathy with, the declared policy of the party and the broad and patriotic purposes of the DrociIoot

Dugall was shot once in the stomach, and once in the back and his head somewhat cut up. Dugall lived until the morning of May first. No authen- tic particulars can be obtained, but the opinion prevails that the whole crowd were drunk. Trout is suffer- ing from bullet wound through the feshy part of the left thigh, the bullet ranging down a short distance, while Daly has two cuts on the head, each of them about two inches in length.-Prescott Cour- fer.

F. J. Netherton, Territorial Su- perinsendent of Public Instruction, has declared his intention to change the text books in use in the public schools of Arizona. More modern text books are, no doubt, needed in our schools, but still this is of minor importance. There are far greater evils needing correction, es- pecially connected with manage ment of the schools by boards of trustees. The present law is entire ly too lax giving trustees far greater latitude than Is expedient, and all lowing them to run a district into debt, when the circumstance do not justify prolonging the school term. Again the election of only one trustee each year is a mistake, giving to two hold-over members the power to continue abuses. The school laws were amended in many particulars by the late legislature, but what provisions were changed will remain unknown until the pub- lication of the new laws. The amendments to the school law, however, do not take effect until July 1st.-Silver Belt.

\ Sensational Arrest.

A sensational arrest has been made in Mohave county recently. A man and woman, accompanied by five children, the youngest about three years of age and the eldest thirteen, have been tramping around the country on foot, several of the children being without shoes. Three weeks ago they left White Hills, Arizona, and walked to Vanderbilt. When last seen by the people of that place they were heading for Cas- man springs. It now transpires that they returned to White Hills, where they loaded all their goods on bur- ros and struck out toward King man. They left everything at q roadside place, near Chloride, call ed Valley Station, and took to the hills. Among the burros they had been packing, two belonged to a German miner residing in Weaver district. An Indian brought word to the sherih's office that the Ger man had followed the party up as soon as he had missed his burros and had overtaken them in the val ley. An altercation took place and
 finally a fight. in which the German was killed and his body buried in the valley. Two deputies were sent out on the trail by the sheriff and they succeeded in overtaking the outfit in Music Mountain. They were brought into Kingman and lodged in jail. The man is said to be a hard case and that the woman is not his wife, but that he and the woman have murdered the husband. The matter will be thoroughly in- quired into by the law officers of Mohave county.-Needles Eye.

In the District Court of Maricopa county. April 20th, the plea in abate-
 ment in the Tewksbury case came up. The plea (says the Republi- can) is based on the allegation that the grand jury which indicted Tewksbury was irregularly consti- tuted. It will be remembered that of the entire venire only ten jury men were found competent to. con. slider the presentation of that case Out of the venire, however, a grand jury was chosen to pass upon all other cases, and when the Tewks- bury case was again reached the two regular jurors who were incom- petent gave place to two other jury men selected from what has beer called a special venire, but which Judge Campbell contends was not one within the meaning and defni- tion of the law.
 District Attorney Williams moved to strike out portion of the plea and later amended the motion by moving to strike it all out, denying each and every allegation contained therein. This he explained was on ly fOrmality to enable him to con- suit the records as to the facts al legged in the plea. The matter went over, and we have since seen no re- ference to the case in the Phenix papers.-Silyer Belt.
