PRENDERGAST HANGED.
Tho Assassin of Mayor Harrison Dies Upo
tho Sca fYoId


the ScaffOld.
CHICAGO, July 14.-Within the gloomy
walls of the Cook county Jail Patricl;
Eugene Prendergast, the assassin of
Mayor Carter III. Harrison, of this city,
was hanged at HAS o'clock yesterday
morning. His neck was broken by the
fall and he was pronounced dead just
nine minutes after the drop fell. 1t was
expected that he would create scene
on the scaffold, but only a slight
nervousness was exhibited while hig
arms and legs were being pinioned.
His carefully prepared speech was no.
delivered, he being dissuaded by Sher-
iff Gilbert not to attempt to do so. He
refused until late last evening to re-
ceive spiritual consolation, but when
night fall came on he asked that
Father Muldoon be admitted, and
when the priest retired he at once
went to sleep and rested well all night.
As the hour for the hanging drew
nearer, Prendergast showed some signs
of slightly increasing nervousness.
But on the whole he was remarkably
calm and well collected. Throughout
the Jail the officers and other attaches
remarked about his behavior, for ii
was the general opinion that he would
weaken badly a good while before the
hanging.

STATE OF TRADE.

Bradstreet's Weekly Report-The Business
Paralysis That the Strike Has Caused.
New YORK, July 14.-Bradstreet's
state of trade says:
During the greater portion Of the week gen.
eral wholesale business at Chicago. and at
centers within the territory tributary, has been
practically plralyzed by the railway strike.
Larger eastern cities felt the effects Of the
tie-up in restricted receipts Of live stock,
meat and produce, while western manufact-
urers and merchants suffered loss through in
ability to secure supplies and raw materials
from the east The railroad strike and boy
colt In part repeated the effects OF the recent
soft coal strike by shutting up large number
Of important Industries in the central west
through want OF fuel.
But perhaps no more favorable time from the
point OF view Of the merchant and manufact-
urer than the midsummer Of 1884, after the
panic season of lS93 could have been chosen to
precipitate SO widespread q railroad tie-up-
when business was already SO generally and
severely restric ted. A number Of small strikes
are reported, but there are 5000 fewer idle
men because Of strikes on Friday this week
than last.
manufacturing industries at large eastern and
western centers have practically no shipments
and commercial travellers throughout the GEN.
trail western states generally haze been COM
PEELED to leave the road
The worlds stock of wheat has declined
during the past fourteen weeks about 6.0Qo.-
600 bushels more than In the same portion Of
last year, which is significant in view Of the
insistence in the trade that invisible domestic
supplies are most exhausted. Exports Of
wheat, -four included, both coasts United
States and Canada this week equal 2317 900
bushels, compared with $50 900 bushels last
week, 4.134,000 bushels in the second week OF
July last year, 2.5s3. 900 bushels In that week
two years ago and go 900 bushels three years
ago. There are 20 business failures in the
United States reported this week, against l64
last week, and compared with 39S in the second
week Of July and with 166 in that week two
years ago; "a business failures in the Dominion
Of Canada, against 80 last week. 20 in the week
a year ago and "a in the week two jears ago.
Aside from influences already referred to the
feature of the week at Boston, as at other east
ern centers, has been higher prices for grain
and provisions, although more ease is now re-
ported.
Buffalo reports increased live stock ship
ments from Indiana which would have gone to
Chicago and Baltimore a smaller trade from
the west and fewer orders than expected from
the south. A fair volume OF business in shoes
is reported from Philadelphia, and practically
no noteworthy movement at Pittsburgh.
All western centerS report railway trans
portation restored, but 1t will be some time be-
fore anything like complete restoration of con-
ditions before the strike can be attained
