CHICAGO, Ill.,, Aug. 7.-Therc was a
wild opening to all grain markets today,
with corn leading and setting the pace

was the most exciting witnessed nycars
on the board of trade floor. Sales, cspc-
cially of corn. were made with Il total
disregard OF price and at quotations va
r>inc from Is, to 81 %, higher than yes
,erday'S close tor Nav, and from | to 5
cents higher than that day's last figures
for September corn. The uproar did not
cease after the first trades had been made,
as is usually the case, but was continu-
Gus throu .hou. the first half hour, the
hantic bids outnumbering the offerings
two to one.
The drought throughout the west was
unbroken last night. and in this crcuni-
stance lay the motive for unusual activ-

A DEMOCRATIC EMBEZZLER.
A Linn County Official Adds
His Name to the List
of Unfaithful.

The Albany Herald of the Sd inst. re
cords another instance in which demo
cratic public official proves unworthy of the
trust reposed i'll him. The Herald says:
A little over week ago County School
Superintendent Russell left this city osten-
sibly on a trip to San Francisco. The
county officials discovered yesterday, how.
ever, that he had other reasons for going,
that me had taken with him considerable
sum Of the county's school money and that
he had been guilty of forgery and embezzle-
ment. He had worked his crime very slyly.
The way he obtained the money was by a
systematic robbery of the various school
districts.
In some casas he forged the names of the
clerks in order to collect the money from
fictitious names of clerks and drew money
for districts that have no existence at all.
AS the county school superintendent has
been accustomed to often draw the money
from the treasurer and send it to the district
as an accommodation, it was not difficult
60 ODCain Cne money, anu lie mas nau plenIy
of time to get out of the country.
The amount of his embezzlement is not
fully known, but over 81 1000 is known to
have been stolen, and it will probably reach
twice that sum. 1t is learned that his wife
received letter from him at Omaha stating
that his books were crooked, but that he
did not think it would be found out for
some time. She also received telegram
asking her if she would come to him, She
replied that she would not, and told him
that his crime had been found out. Then
MIS-. Russell went to her parents near
Shedd.
Constable G. W. Watts went up to Shedd
last night armed with attachment to be
levied upon some of his personal property in
favor of the Albany Furniture Co., to whom
he is indebted.
Mr.. Russell had always been considered
honest and upright, and the news of his
crime will fall like thunder. clap upon his
friends"
