JUDGE coFFlN's FIRST CASE

Illuminating Manner.
The following story is told of Timothy
Coffin, who was for long time Judge OF
the New Bedford district: When very !
Young man, he was retained in case OF
sufficient importance to bring out almost
every resident of the town, SO THAI
the little New Bedford courthouse was
packed when court was opened that
morning. Coffin had been secured as
counsel by the defendant. Although II
was his first attempt in open court. he
had made little or no preparation, tmnK-
ing that he could get through somehow
or other when the time came. Ihus,
when the counsel for the defendant came
INTO court that morning, he was greatly
surprised, and no less agitated, TO see the
big crowd and realize the wide puolc
interest in the trial at hand DE saw
that ne had looked upon the case too
lightly. The prosecution was strong
and he had made not even slight prep

His Dream Of Death Came True.

Thomas Pratt, an old resident of this
city, was found dead in his bed Saturday
morning. Pratt's store on College hill
has long been the meeting place of half
dozen friends and old time comrades Of
the proprietor. Friday night, when his
friends came in, Mr.. Pratt told dream
he had had the night previous. He had
dreamed that he was dead. yet he pos
sessed the power to see all that went on
about him, though he was unable to
move OF speak. He had noted the prep
arations for his burial, and he even
named the half dozen friends who served
as pallbearers. He also told of the fu-
neral services being held in the Memo
rial hall, and of his ride to the cemetery,
and the lowering of his coffin into the
grave. And when the first dirt was
thrown upon the box he awoke from the
trance and called to his comrades. and
they drew him from the grave. The
pallbearers of the dream were the pail.

MOTION ASA CANDIDATE.
lie MAY be Nominated for Governor This
Year by the New York Republicans.


The New York correspondent OF the
baltimore American has this to say
about the next Republican nt minatloh
4 prominent Republican OF this city
said to-day 70 the correspondent or the
American that he had seen a letter from
the Hon Levi L. Morton TO personal
friend. in which the eX-Nice President
intimated that, while he was not can
didate FOR Governor. he would accept u
II rendered TO him. Mr.. Morton wrote,
this gentleman said, las n he thought
that he would be asked 10 become the
Republican candidate for Governor Oh
the State and intimated very clearly
that he would not decline the honor. Ihis
IS very important" he went on 10 say.
because OF certain prominence IN the
next Republican National Convention or
the man selected by the Republlcans THIS
year as their candidate Tor Governor.
For the first time In some years there
are nearly a dozen men seeking the Re
publlcan nomination. but the one who
Today is the strongest OF them all Is
Mr.. Norton
The objection urged to Mr.. Fassett Is
that he is too close to Mr.. Platt who is
I'm certain quarters OF the State but
among the younger Republicans OF New
York Senator Fassett Is quite a favOrite
for the nomination. Very little is heard
just now Of the boom Of Joseph Ia.
Choate for the nomination, but his work
as president OF the present Constitutional
Convention may be OF such quality that
the brilliant legal advocate cannot be
overlooked. Judge Gaynor. OF Brooklyn,
Is being talked OF as a likely reform can
didate for Governor, but as he is not a
wealthy man he would hardly give up
his Supreme Court judgeship at SIS 900

CHICAGO, ILL. July ct looked to-
day as though any important actl0h IN
wheat could not be expected uhtl tHc
disturbed condition of the country was
ramedied There was no effort made
10 conceal the aversion OF the WeaitHIeI
and more important traders 10 entering
the market, either as buyers or sellers.
The attention OF the crowd was taken
up with reports from the different points
where Tioting was going on. lhose
moderate operators who had open traces
in the market were quietly closing theln
up, and the preponderance OF interests
seemed TO be on the long side for the
lgufdating sales made by holders result
ed in a considerable loss 10 values. Inc
statistical and routine news OF the uay
FASTENED the decline TO some extent
September wheat opened from oofsc. 70
5Sf.c.. sold at 5Si2c.. declined TO 1i1sq
5sc.. closing at 5sajSAc., a net loss OF
&c. for the day. Cash wheat was lower.
Corn-The opening and early tradlng
was at firm prices. Shorts were sun
specializing as TO the prospective IeceiplS
as governed by the railway SITUATION.
July deliveries are the ones WIlcn az
causing the greatest amount OF anxiety:
After the demand which this topic had
Induced. which was temporarily satisfied,
tho weakness of wheat began 10 make
an impression, and there was less
strength shown by corn. September corn
opened at 41iac. and 4l%c., advanced 10
4i5sc.. declined to 4O1sc., and closed at
Ale. a net loss from yesterday OF asq12c
Cash corn was inactive.
Oats-Very little business was trans
acted in this market, the tone ruling
easy with wheat, and prices declining
moderately. July closed lc. lower than
Yesterday. September sake. lower.
Cash oats were I'm good demand by con-
surers but prices were easy.
ProVisiOns-There was no hog market
at the yards, and as natural result,
product was entirely devoid of action.
