Deaths From Heat, However, We're Nu-
meroua at Chicago.
CHICAGO. Aug. IA good breeze
tempered the heat to sufferers during
the day. The thermometer registered
81. The deadly effects Of the high tenn
perature, however, continued, and 80
fatalities of sunstroke were reported,
with the list still incomplete. About 80
cases of prostitution, more or less seri-
GUS, have also occurred. A shower at
o'clock considerably cooled off the air,
but only for short time. The number
Of persons driven insane by the heat
will probably never be known. but its
effects in that direction may be esti-
mated from the fact that during the
week 20 persons have been locked up in
the detention hospital, all of whom had
been driven crazy by the heat.
There are 800 dead horses still unre-
moved on the streets, the city being un-
able to secure sufficient assistance to
cart as many away as daily succumb to
the heat. The mayor has issued an
order guaranteeing $40 to anyone who
will remove one of the cadavers.

Estimate Makes 1t Eight Million Bushels
Less Than Last Year.
ABERDEEN. S. D., Aug. 12.-S. R.
jumper, president of the First National
bank, has made his annual estimate,
based on private advioes from all parts
of the state, of the wheat yield of
South Dakota. He makes the acreage
2,69O,OOO and average yield 81 bushels
pcr acre, or total yield of S2s340, 900
bushels. From this should be deducted
5 per cent, destroyed by lederous and
destructive storms Of wind and hail,
which have been unusually severe this
summer, and the total yield of the state
amounts to 81 1888, 900 bushels, or over
5000, 1000 less than last year. The crop
is, he says, very much like that Of 1891,
which was very promising when ready
for the reaper, but sadly disappointing
as it came from the thresher. Corn,
potatoes, hay and all kinds Of roots are
the best the state has ever raised. Oats,
barley and fax are fair.

Fire at the Iowa Penitentiary at

of $4,000.

NEW Y DIRK, Aug. 12.-At least three
persons and possibly others were burned
to death III a fire that destroyed a
6-story brick building at 465 Greenwich
street during the afternoon. Several
persons were injured by the smoke and
heat and by jumping, and two of them
are expected to die.
There were 30 persons in the build
ing, most Of whom were at work in the
shops Of Warren & Co. on the fifth floor
of the building. Those who were first
to reach the fire escapes succeeded in
making their way down to the first
floor landing and from there jumped to
the sidewalk. Those who followed
found that they. were
Cut or by Flames and Dense Smose,
which poured out of the windows below
and escaped over the roof. One Of the
last men to make for the fire escape on
the fifth floor was the foreman, Will
a moment. He was followed by two
other men, who were not recognized.
Men on the roof shouted for them to
take hold of a wire which they had let
down, but they either did not hear or
were too frightened to do anything.
Flames suddenly shot out from the
windows and they were burned to
death in view of the crowd.
Eight or 10 explosions added to the
excitement, but served good purpose
in aiding the fire department, as there
after the flames were more easily COL
trolled. Individual losses were not
known definitely and total of $l50,O00
