THE weeks news, says Dun's Rerie1C,
the more natural because there are signs
of midsummer dullness. Wheat pros
poets are not quite so good as last week,
but still there are lower prices, as corn
and cotton have been lowered. The ex>
ports of gold and the less favorable
treasury returns for July are not unex-
pected and mean nothing as to coming
business. There is perceptible decrease
in the demand for most manufactured
products and the actual distribution to
consumers naturally lessons in midsum-
mer. Much of the recent buying was to
anticipate a rise in prices and such pur
chases fell off when prices have risen.
There are still numerous advances in
wages, but strikes grow more numerous
and important.
In part because business was unusual.
ly large In the first half of July, a quiet
tone meets reasonable expectations.
The heavy bank failure at Montreal does
not affect finances here, and is passing
there with less disturbance than was
feared. Gold exports for the middle OF
July, when crops are beginning to move,
If not meant to affect stocks, can at all
events have only a speculative signIfi'
cance. Wheat has declined cents fol

Tragedies at a Picnic.

Gallatin, Tenn, July % One Of the
bloOdiest tragedies ever witnessed in this
county took place on Saturday at pic
mic in the northern part of this county.
Three persons lost their lives. West
Dixon, of this place, took his wife, who
Is said to be woman of bad character
to the picnic, and soon fuss arose about
her, which was quieted, and Dixon and
his wife took seat in wagon. AS
William Davidson, a man some 90 years
of age, was passing 10y the wagon Dixon
drew his revolver and without a mo-
ment's warning shot him through the
head, killing him on the spot. He and
his wife broke to run, and a crowd of
Davidson 5 friends started in pursuit,
firing at them at every opportunity.
Finally Dixon fell, mortally wounded.
His wife was also shot twice, being fa-
tally wounded.
Dixon is a man Of very bad character,
having killed three men, one deputy
sheriff at Frankford, Ky. Davidson
was also a man with record. He
killed the sheriff of Robertson county
several years ago.

A Town " aShed Away.

Pueblo, Col, July 22-Reports from
Whitewater, y. NJ, ID miles from Silver
City, y. NJ, are that a greater portion
of the business section OF the latter place
was destroyed by a flood last night, but
so far as can be learned at the head
quarters of the Atchison. Topeka Il San
ia Fe railroad in this city, where the
information is obtained, no lives were
lost. All telegraph wires to Silver City
are down, and all the news is obtained
from cOuriers arriving at Whitewater
The Simmer house, the largest hotel at
Silver City, and a number of business
blocks have collapsed.
The railroad authorities report the
storm the worst ever known in that sec
ton. The Santa Fe railroa d has lost sew
eral bridges on its Silver City branch, and
is badly washed out. The first reports
were that several lives were lost, even as
high as %, but a later courier while con-
tirming the reports of damage through
out the section, says there has been so
far as learned no loss of life.

IT was stated at the Indian bureau on
Tues day that no news had been received
there of the existence of trouble with
the Bannock Indians at Jacksons Hole,
and Commissioner Browning expressed
decided doubt respecting the reports of
the wholesale killing of Indians by set,
tiers.
Captain Teter, who had been sent out
there from the bureau to investigate the
situation, had been instructed to report
Immediately any accident which war>
ranted communication to the bureau
and the commissioner said nothing had
been received for several days. His
latest reports made no mention of any
such trouble as has been published with
in the past day or two. 1t was possible,
however, the commissioner said, that
Capt. Teter was beyond range of tele-
graphic facilities, and this fact might
account for his silence.

Blew Up Himself and His House.

Beaver Or, July p. James Fisk,
Iumberman, yesterday blew up himself
and his house with giant powder
Fisk made money as a logger, mar
ried, built a So, ,O00 house on his ranch,
and furnished it handsomely. Recently
he had trouble with his wife, who show
ed fondness for another lumberman,
and soon afterward he failed in business.
With the consent of his creditors he
transferred the house and 16O acres to
his wife. As soon as she secured the
deed she abandoned him, taking her g.
year-old girl, who was the fathers pet
Fisk brooded over this, and repeatedly
declared to friend that his wife never
should get the house. He kept in the
attic the giant powder which he ha d
bought for blowing out stumps. He put
this powder in one heap on the ground
floor and exploded it. The report shook
the town. OF the house and its con-
tents only ashes and few charred tim
bers are left. When the neighbOrs
searched for Fisk all that was found was
foot and hand, which had been
blown 200 feet from the house.

In the Presence OF the Girl.

Cumberland, Md, July % Last
night Theodore Muir, aged % years,
a native of germany, and a glass blower
employed at the Cumberland glass works,
committed suicide by firing bullet into
his brain. Muir had been in this coun-
try about three years and had boarded
with Andrew Haseberge., to whose
daughter, Lizzie, he had been showing
much attention. Today she and Muir
drove to Frostburg, and upon returning
sat upon a porch with the Haseberger
family and drank wine. Then Muir
left the family and went into the house.
The family followed him and he drew a
revolver and threatened to shoot them
should they approach. Lizzie entered
the room, whereupon he said; ''Now
I'll make you sorry" and fired the fa
tai shot. 1t Is thought that the young
woman's refusal to marry him prompted
the deed.

this morning while the Wall accommo-
dation train was approaching East Lib

this afternoon, but no arrests have been
made. Mrs. Prudeu says she cannot
account for her husbands actions.

years, has made a complete change In
the way of giving exhibitions. Hereto
fore admission was charged, and prem

and the association will no. pay prem
iums. Instead, it is expected that prem

to that end committee has been sent

The successful test of the giant cleo
tric motor on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad on Tuesday last was a note>
worthy trial of the motive power of the
future. The actual running of these es-
peciaIly designed electric locomotives of
great weight upon that road will be the
first serious attempt to dispace the steam
locomotive IN railroad service. Two of
them will be employed to haul trains
through the new IS. 600, 600 tunnel at
Baltimore, which will be the only un-
derground electric road in America.
The locomotive weighs % tons each, are
II feet inches long and feet 50 inches
wide. The recent experimental trip was
made with a load of $4,000 tons, at the
rate of IL miles al hour This feat in
itself was "a most wonderful achieve
ment; but until the question of econo-
my shall have been made clear the full
significance of the test cannot be de-

More Defective ArmOr Plate.

Washington, July ga lot of armor
plate furnished by the Bethlehem iron
works does not seem to be up to the
standard. An investigation has been in
progress by naval experts with the re-
suit that at least a dozen very large
plates for battleships now under con
struction, have been rejected.
1t is SAID the plates have been injured
in the tempering, and very large holes
and other defects are showing on the
surface. Parts of the plates may be
used, but the company will probably
have to furnish new ones.
The value Of the plates is about $500
OOO- Haste in putting the plates
through the Harveyizing process is said
to be the cause of the defects.
