CHICAGO, June 16.-On moderate trade
wheat showed a good deal of strength to-
news that was bearish. The crowd had
come to the conclusion that If the St. Louis
convention should nominate Mckinley
the platform Of the party, tine effect would
be decidedly bullish. Helped by this idea,
prices started quite firm, and kept gaining
favored the bear side. Liverpool was
quoted lower. Northwestern receipts were
heavy and the demand for cash wheat was
sluggish. But the sentiment was inclined
TO favor the bull side, and there was little
wheat for sale, with demand sufficient to
take it all quietly. The bullish element is
the market to make sudden and sharp
advances holds bears in check and there
shows a tendency to advance. This gives
the bull manipulators an advantage which
they are not slow to use. Late in the

sharp advance in Paris. Corn enjoyed Il
very good trade. The general tone was

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
silver Men Go Iu To Win.

A square fight on the silver question
has been made in Missouri and Ala
bama. and in each the silver men have
been victorious. In 70 counties in
Missouri silver delegates have been
elected to the State Convention, and
outside the city of st. Louis the cham
pions OF the white metal will have it
all their own way. The st. Louis
Globe democrat, the most radical
gold standard paper in the Mississippi
Valley, ls Disguised, aud says the Job
Of proving to the country that Mis-
souri, is not welded to that relic Of
barbarism, Ethe silver standard, will
now devolve entirely on the Repubi
cans.
In Alabama, the primaries resulted
in the nomination of Joseph F. Johns
ton, silverite, over Clark, the gold
advocate. Johnston is said to have
374 votes out of 504 votes, though
there is some dispute over the dele.
cations in two counties.
The Alabama and Missouri delega
tons to the Chicago Convention will
join with other silver delegations to
secure a free coinage candidate on a
free coinage platform. AS they are i'll
the fight for principle, they will not
participate in the nomination of Il gold
standard man nor pledge themselves
to support him. They expect assist
ance from at least twenty other
States, and Will have sufficient back
ing to- set up business on their own
account in opposition TO the gold men.
No silver man worthy the name will
remain an active participant in Il
State or National Convection, in this
year of grace, which nominates a
single gold standard candidate on Il
gold standard platform. Monetary
reform is the issue, ard he who is not
for 1t is against it Straddlng and
double.dealing cannot be countenanc
ed by real silver men, who want the
mints opened to gold and silver, rs the
founders of the Government provided
they should be.--Reno journal.

The Lientennn, Gove1norship.

The Gazette was mistaken in it's
statement yesterday that the State
constitution made the President pro
tenn. Of the Senate, Lieutenant Gov.
ernor i'll case Of a vacancy in that
Office. The constitution makes him
the Acting Governor, in the event of a
vacancy occurring in the offices of
Governor and Lieutenant Governor mt
the same time, but it does not pro-
vide that he shall in any event act as
Lieutenant Governor. If Governor
Sadler was to die to day, the President
pro tenn. Of the Senate would be the
Acting Governor of the State until
after the next election.
Section 8 OF Article V OF the consti-
tuition provides that the Governor
shall, when any State Office becomes
vacant from any cause, fill the vacan
cy by appointment. Under this pro
vision there appears to be no question
as to the right of..Gov. Sadler, to ap-
point Lieutenant Governor. There
is question, however, whether it is
necessary or desirable that one should
he appointed. The Lieutenant Gov.
ernor is nonenity except as the pre-.
siding officer OF the Senate. All of the
other positions that have been held by
that fuDctionary we're ex.officio ones.
The Senate can as we'll select it's pre-.
siding officer rs the Assembly, and the
appointment of Lieutenant Govern
or would only place another man on
the payroll during the session Of the
legislature. Tho Office is Il needless
one, anyhow, and should have been
abolished at tho last election, and it
would have been if the voters had
given the constitutional amendment
the consideration their importance
entitled them to.--Reno Gazette

ANOTHER DISTRESSING AFFAIR.
FOur-Year-OId Girl, Left Asleep, Was
Burned to Death in KAN
snS CITY KaS

Viola Glass. the 4-year-old daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. John Glass, of SS7 Walker
avenue, Kansas City, Kas., met a horrible
death yesterday morning. The child was
left asleep at the family home while Mrs
Glass visited neighbor. Shortly after her
departure from the house smoke was seen
TO emerge from the dwelling, but no at
tention was paid to this until the flames
burst through the windows.
Mrs. Fowler, who lives only about a half
block from the Glass home, gave the alarm
and hastened to the scene of the fire. The
front door vas broken in, but the house
by this time was completely wrapped in
flames and it was impossible for the by
ISLANDERS to render any assistance to the
child. The child could be seen with its tiny
hands over its face as the flames crept to
the bed
In the excitement which prevailed the
witnesses failed to turn in a fire alarm, and
the house with all the contents was
burned to the ground. After the debris was
cleared away the charred body of the lit
tie girl was taken from the ruins The
body was burned beyond recognition Mrs
Glass returned just as the house collapsed.
Coroner Todd was notified and decided that
an inquest was not necessary.

THE LATE SHAFTS FAMILY.
He Had Three Legitimate Wives and
Fifty Left-Hnnded Consorts.

The family of the late Shah Nussin-ef-din
was large one. He had three legitimate
or Akhdi wives and some fifty -concubinas.
Many OF these latter were merely wives in
name, for a lady who has once entered the
royal anderun, or harem, only leaves it ut
death. or when the shah, as a special mark
of favor. gives her in marriage to a sub
ject. The bride in this case generally
proves a mixed blessing. Each lady has a
house, or at least a suite of apartments
in the royal palace. The principal wife of
the late shah was the Shuku-es-S -Sultaneh,
the glory of the empire the mother of
the present king. a royal princess, grand
daughter of Faith. Ali Shah. The second
wife was the late kings own aunt-a royal
princess. and chiIdless. The third wife is
the former fayorite concU5ine. the Anys-
cI dowlet. or companion of the govern
ment.' She was miIler's daughter, and
as the shah rode by she offered him some
fruit. which he accepted; and the next day
the miller's daughter entered the royal
auEerun. and she grew in favor until nine
teen years ago the shah made her one of
his four lawful wives. Three of her broth
ers became chamberlains 10 the king: the
fourth preferred TO pursue his old voca-
tioD-that of a muleteer. The Anys-ed-
dowlet had the reputation of kind-heart-
cd woman, and gave away large sums in
charity
The Amin-i-Akdas a Kurdish slave is
the aunt Of the little boy who was long
known as the shah's Luck The real
history Of the Luck is that when the
king was on one OF his sporting expedf-
tons he. while sleeping IN a hunting lodge
OF massive timbers. Nas aroused by 4
child's cries. He went out to quiet the
child. and as he left the house it suddenly
fell in a heap Of ruins. The shah consid-
cred that the little child had saved his
life and he chung TO the boy several years
