CHICAGO MARKET
The Days Transaction OIL TIL, Bo1-i Of
Trade

ir2Ic
CHICAGO, Aug. 4.-There was a moder-
ate trade in wheat. principally local. The
feeling at the start was rather uncertain
owing to the easier feeling in Wall street
and the large local failure on the stock ex-
change was factor. but the market, all
things considered, held up fairly well. In
itial trading was at Ia lsc loss, rallied a.
ea3ed off little and closed with &c de-
cline. The weather was most favorable
and clear in winter wheat sections just
what is wanted to dry out the grain and
put in condition for the thresher. There
was a decrease on ocean passage Pros
poets favored very moderate worlds ship
ments and also added something to the
price. The poor grading of todays arri-
walls was noticeable. Trading in corn was
of fair volume with increased interest from
the outset, fluctuations covering I0l cent
range There was less than the usual inter-
est in the oats market and prices moved
within asc range and closed at about the
top at unchanged prices. While traders
in the grain markets were trying TO per-
suade themselves that the Moore failure
on the stock exchange should make their
grain cheaper. the provisions were driven
to other considerations and acted as if
Diamond Match had never been heard of
in the pork pit.

Racial Height.

A careful inquiry into the aver
age height of different nations has
elicited the following facts: The
English professional classes, who
head the list as the tallest of adult
males, attain the high average Of
feet 9.l4 inches. Next on the
list come the males Of all classes
in the United States, and a min
ute fraction behind them CONS the
English Of all classes. Hence we
may conclude that, taken right
through, the English and Ameri-
can races are approximately of the
same height. Most European ma.
tons average for the adult male 5
feet 6 inches, but the Austrians,
Spaniards and Portuguese just
fall short of this standard.

From Drowning in a Pennsylvania
COlIiery - Four Men Killed and
Another Fatally Injured by the
Explosion of Four Boilers.

NASHVILLE (Tenn.), Nov. IA
frightful crime was committed in this
city at an early hour this morning.
One person was killed. another mortally
wounded and the murderer then at
tempted his own life.
For some months past Thomas Lynch,
a hardworking mechanic who lived on
Allison street, in the eastern suburb Of
tile city, has been acting very queerly.
His friends insisted that he was crazy,
but as none of his acts We're violent his
family refused to have him shut up in
an asylum.
1t was believed that Lynch was in
sanely jealous of his wife, who was
quite a comely and attractive woman
Lynch was also greatly excited over
the election. He took deep interest
in the financial question, and would
talk for hours about the oppression Of
laborers and how much money was
needed in the country.
Last night he went to bed quietly and
seemed to be in a happier frame Of
mind than he had been for months
Early this morning he rose stealthily
and going to drawer he took out
razor. Creeping over TO Wnere MS WIG
was sleeping, he deliberately cut her
throat
Leaving her mortally wounded, he
went to the room where the hired wo-
man slept, and taking her by surprise,
cut her throat.
Finally satisfied with his awful work.
he attempted his own life.
Lynch and his wife are now in the
hospital, and ii is believed that they
will not recover.

UNITED STATES ARMY.
Annual Report of Inspector-General
Breckenridge.

WASHINGTON, Nov. I.-Inspector-
General Breckenridge of the army, in
his annual report, shows that accounts
of disbursing officers agSregating over
S72, 100000 have been examined during
the year Recommendations to avoid
an unnecessary number of entries and
needless handling of the same sum and
reporting it over and over again have
been followed out, and a great improve
ment is noticeable.
The national hospitals for disabled SOL
diers are in fine condition, and reports
from them show no decadence any
where.
The fourteen arsenals and armories
of the army indicate that the officers in
charge display excellent judgment in
the administration of affairs.
In the report of the inspection OF the
National Cemetery at Lexington, KY, it
is stated that "the Confederate dead still
lie in the trenches where they were
buried after the battles of Perryville and
Mill Springs, uncared for. To make the
cemetery national in the true sense, I
strongly recommend that these bodies
be moved and re-entered beside those
against whom they fought in the near
est National Cemetery, and the care of
the Government be extended to all
alike"
The colleges at which military in
struction by army officers is given are
declared to be IN a fourishing condi-
tion, and accomplishing useful results.

FOUR BOILERS EXPLODE.
Four r1en Killed and Another Fatally
Injured.

SHAMOKIN (Pa.), Nov. -Four men
lost their lives by boiler explosion at
the Centralia colliery this morning, and
fifth is fatally injured. Four boilers
out of a bank of sixteen exploded, and
all the others were dismantled, resulting
in a loss of $4,000.
Andrew Monchok was Instantly killed.
Joseph Monchok was instantly killed.
John Southey and Joseph Kubic died
Of their injuries, and Matthew Lesher
cannot live. Joseph Bolinski was seri-
ously hurt.
Southey and Kubic were blown seven
tyfive feet, and Lesher landed but few
yards behind them. The remainder of
the men lay in what remained of the
boiler house. A fragment of iron pene-
trated a house, knocking a bedpost off
couch on which two children were
sleeping. A crowd of miners passing the
ash bank near the boiler house had mar
row escapes, some being blown scores of
feet, and sustaining slight injuries.

MOHAMMEDAN REBELLION.
Terrible Accounts of the Incidents
Connected With 1t.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. Especial
correspondence of the United Assoclat-
ed Presses, under date of Toxic, Octo-
Der Goth:
Terrible accounts come to hand OF in
otdents connected with the Mohamme-
dan rebellion in Kan-Su. 1t is estimat-
ed that 10000 Mohammedans, chiefly
women, children and old men, have
died of hunger or been frozen to death
n the hills and mountains. Those that
have submitted number $4,000, women
and children for the most part. Thirty
or forty thousand remained under arms
among the hills in the southeastern dis
trict in the middle of the summer.
The business of seiZing and beheading
the insurgents was conducted with
wholesale vigor SO soon as their
strength had been broken in any dis
trict. An average of sixteen had been
decapitated daily for two weeks in ST.
Ming. On June 10th, as 5000 heads
remained to come off, the sanguinary
carnival was expected to go on for an
indefinite time longer. Crowds Of people
watched the executions and it is easy
to conceive the Generalization that
must have resulted from such prolonged
intimacy with bloodShed.

TIED ON TINE MONEY QUESTION
Hobart Will Have to Cast the Decid-
ing Vote in the Senate.

NEW YORK, Nov. THE announce
ment from Milwaukee by friends of
Senator John L. Mitchell of Wisconsin
that he will support gold measures in
the Senate makes a tie of the gold and
silver forces in that body, and puts
upon Vice-President Hobart the re-
spensibility of casting the deciding
vote. This, of course, took the assump-
ton that no other changes are made.
Putting him among the gold men, the
Senate in the next Congress as at pres
ent indicated will be divided as follows:
Gold Republicans 81, Gold Democrats
S-45; Silver Democrats 26, Silver Re
publicans TO- Populists SO. Should
Messrs. Carter of Montana and Shoup
of Idaho, who supported Major McKin-
ley in the campaign, ally themselves
with the dominant faction of the party,
the gold vote in the Senate after March
4th next would be AZ and the silver
vote 49,
The composition of the House of
Representatives in the Fifty-fifth Con-
gress remains substantially the same
as at first sent out by the United -Asso-
cjated Presses, the present division ac-
cording to the latest returns being as
follows: Republicans 212, Sound Money
Democrats 2, Democrats 100, Silver Re
publicans, Populists and Fusionists 23:
total, 357
