CORN AND WHEAT
Causes a Panic on the Chicago Ex.
change-And Is Still Going Up.

Chicago, Aug. '.-The Board of Trade
was scene of wild excitement during
the panic to-day, when corn was shooting
up at dizzy rate. The drought in the
corr belt was aaEcnecked. Shorts were
frantic, and every jump in price, with the
consequent loss to them, they fought
more and more for cover. Before 10 a..
m, corn had gone up cents in long and
sensatlonl jumps and wheat, with the
heavy load of bearish influence, had
struggled "a cents up the scale. The
Visitors gallery soon filled; spectators
climbed on to seats and leaned over the
railing watching the yelling and howling
mob OF specuiators on the floor. At the
opening, September corn was anywhere
between 81 and So cents, in different
parts of the pit, against 53la Yesterday,
and by jumps of half cent at time,
1t quickly advanced to 60, or 7. above
yesterdays last figures. This gait, of
course, could not last and most urgent
shorts having waded ashore, the strain
eased some. The price sank at first by
cents and halves, with occasional slight
reaction, until at 1908 a. m. it was at 55l5
cents. May corn opened from 5O15 to
521a against 475s at the close yesterday,
and advanced to 533s, or clean advance
OF cents, breaking off later to 4915.
JUMP OF FIFTEEN CENTS IN NEW YORK.
New York.-The corn market started
out with 10 cent jump over last night
and was increased in few moments to
81. The excitement was great and the
corn ring was full of brokers trying to
cover short contracts.

SIERRA LEADS.
The Banner Gold District of New Mex
ico-An Entertaining Talk with
Hon. W. S. Hopewell, of
HillsbOrO.

Hon. W. S. Hopewell, Sierra county's
most popular commoner, whose name has
been spoken of in connection with the
Democratic nomination for delegate in
congress, came in from the south last
night. He is always welcome visitor at
the territorial capital, having host of
admiring friends in this locality. Mr..
Hopewell says the usual rainy season has
not yet struck the Sierra stock ranges,
there having been only local showers, and
the condition of the stock range is far
from satisfactory. The mining interests
OF Sierra, however, are doing we'll con
sidering the stringency of the times. Last
year Sierra county's mineral output was
greater than that of any other county in
the territory, its value being $573,2OO, of
which $329,0O0 was gold, $21O,O0O silver
$4,000 lead and 100000 copper.
Last week the output of the mines and
mills in the HiIlsboro district were 44O
tons of ore, ard from January to date
the output has been 5000 tons. In the
Jersey Lilly last week fine body of flux-
ing ore was encountered, assaying $72 in
gold, less than one ounce in silver and
carrying but 80 per cent silica. splen-
did body of ore has also been struck in
the Catherine claim, in which Manager
Mclaughlin, of the Santa Fe Copper
company, San Pedro, is half owner.
The ore bodies IN Sierra are not only
rich and permanent but improve with
deep work, and milling capacity is all that
is lacking to keep Sierra in the lead as
the banner gold district of New Mexico.

ON THE TRIAL
One Of the Deputies Captured In Mis-
souri, Makes a Full Confession
OF the Tarsney Affair.

Denver, Aug. 7.-Joe R. Wilson, the
Ell Paso county deputy sheriff who was
captured in Missouri, has made full
confession of the Tarsney tarrlng and
feathering and has given Chief of Police
Armstrong the names of all those con-
cerned. According to his story, Sheriff
Bowers was the chief conspirator and
furnished the tar to Deputy Quack kenboss,
whose wife furnished the feathers. The
others engaged were Deputy Sheriff Bob
Mullens, who hired the hack; Capt. Sax
ton and Sargent Bancroft, of troop A, of
Sherman and Walter county. The hack
drivers were Shorty Allen, Sam Shellen-
berger and one or two more. Jack j.
Mullens was in the conspiracy at the
start, but did not show up at the appoint
ed hour. Wilson is in Jail here. He is
afraid that if he is taken to Colorado
Springs, he will be treated to dose of
tar and feathers as Tarsney was.
Chief of Police Armstrong did not ar
rive at his office till noon to-day. He said
that it was true that Wilson had onfessed,
but so far as he knew, Sheriff Bowers was
not implicated in the outrage by the CON
fession.
AN INFAMOUS LIE.
Colorado Springs. Sheriff Bowers, of
Colorado Springs, pronounces the con-
fession of Ex-Deputy Wilson as un-
qualifiedly false SO far as it duplicates
him in the outrage against Tarsney.
Bowers says that he had no knowledge
whatever of the alleged conspiracy.
TARsNEY FINED FOR CONTEMPT.
Adit Gen. Tarsney was fined $50 and
costs by Judge Campbell to-day for con-
tempt of court in refusing to appear be-
fore the grand jury. He was ordered to
60 before the grand jury and testify re-
garding the outrage Of which he was the
victim. Attorney General Engley created
a sensation in the court, by violently dc.
nouncing Gov. Waite for sending mill
tary escort to Colorado Springs with

cussion among the members of the house

conferees it was decided not to introduce
the substitute resolution, but to vote

of the court, have been made. It was
argued that no steps toward impeach-
ment should be taken till more was known
of the case. The matter was referred to

guardedly admit that there is some found
alton for the report that movement
