NEW YORK DRY, GOODS.
NEW YORK, FEB. 17.-There was a wider
irregular demand ron the part of spot buyers
in the dry goods market and the quantities
taken were variable, though some lots
were for important quantities. Brown cot
tons are doing much better, as are wide
sheetings printed fabrics and other season
able specialties of similar description. The
mail order demand was considerably better
and from travellers good quantities were re-
ceved. The market is making Roadway
slowly but surely, and in a general sense
mill stocks are beingsreleased.

ANOTHEE TRAIN HELD UP.
Bandits Board a Chicago and Alton Ex-
press Near Kansas City.

Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. 6.-Bandits
held up Chicago and Alton express
train tonight at a point less than six
miles from Kansas City. The robbery
is the third occurring on that road
within a year, all within fifteen miles of
this city.
The Chicago and st. Louis express
which pulled out of the Union depot at
$3.50 o'clock this evening was stopped by
three masked men at Evanston, a sub
urban stopping place. Evanston is
about eight miles nearer to Kansas
City than Blue Cut, made celebrated by
the notorious James gang and which
was the scene of two previous robberies
on the Chicago and Alton this year,one
December 90 last and one on October
23 last.
How much booty, if any. was secur-
ed by the robbers ro-night is not
known here at midnight. The train
was sent on from the Scene of the hold
up. and had passed Independence, the
next telegraph station, BEFORE news of
the hold-up had become public. At a
late hour the agents of the Pacific and
United States Express companies were
denying that there had been robbery
on the Chicago and Alton.

FIERCE FIRE IN DETROIT.
1t Was Raging With Fury Mt . o'clock
This Morning.

Detroit, Mich, Oct. THE Detroit
opera house is afire and will probably
be destroyed, or so badly damaged that
the building will be rendered useless.
The flames burst at 12:40 a. m, envel-
oping all the rear part of the building,
AT the same moment there were sew
eral loud explosions.
In fifteen minutes the entire interior
of the opera house was a roaring fur
mace, and the building adjoining was
practically destroyed.
In less than half hour the three
story building on Gratiot avenue, occu-
pied by the H. Leonard Furniture COM
pany, was enveloped in flames, and it
will be a total loss. The opera house
faced small triangular park opposite
the city hall. Flames have communi-
Gated in places to the row of buildings
along the east side Of Woodward ave-
nue.. between the theater and Gratiot
avenue. The firemen are endeavoring
to save all these, and the wind fortu-
nately is in the opposite direction.
BY AS q. m. great flames were belch-
ing from the roof and frontier of the
four-story building occupied ty the C.
H. Michael Table Supply company,
which adjoined the opera house on the
east at the corner of Monroe avenue
and the Campus Marius. While some
firemen were ascending a ladder at the
front of the Michael building, two of
them fell and were quite seriously in
jured. AT 2 o'clock nothing remained of
the Leonard building on Gratiot avenue,
but the steel frame work and portions
of the walls. The Wright company es-
tablishment, which contains the most
valuable stock of jewelry, etc, in the
state, seems likely to be saved. A
building occupied by the c. w. Marvin
Music company at Gratiot avenue and
Farmer street, east of the Leonard
building, is in imminent danger, and the
fate of dozen other buildings was
problematical at o'clock.

BIG FIRE IN CHICAGO.
One Man Reported Burned to Death-A
Number Seriously Injured.


Chicago, Oct. 6.--Fanned by a strong
wind from the west, fire that broke
out in the Dexter park pavilion at the
Union Stock Yards this afternoon
spread to the district between Halstead
and Union avenues and Forty-third
and Forty-fifth streets, denolishing
business houses and residences. The
worst sufferers among the residents
were those living along Halstead ave-
nue., between Forty-third and Forty
fourth streets. Business houses and
residences, being frame structures, fur
nished ready material for the flames,
which ragged from 8 o'clock until 5, and
then yielded to the vigorous work of
the fire department. The total damage
to the Dexter park pavilion and other
property is estimated at more than $780,
900, but it may exceed that sum, as the
exact number Of horses burned in the
fire is not known and a calculation of
the amount Of feed stored in the pavil-
ion is yet to be made. A number Of
persons were injured during the fight
with the flames, and one man, accord
ing to an employe Of the Stock Yards,
was burned to death.
List of dead-Unknown man, burned
to death.
Injured-Patrick Casey an employe
of Stock Yards, not serious; Maurice
Maloney, fireman, overcome by smoke
and heat, will recover; p. F. Shearn,
broken leg; Harry Walsh, employe Of
Stock Yards, slightly burned; William
Donahue, fireman, injured by falling
timber, will recover.
The pavilion stands only few yards
southwest of the main horse market.
The pavilion contained five hundred
horses, and it was with the greatest
difficulty that they were rescued. Many
of them were in pens, and it was an
easy matter to turn them loose, but a
very different thing to get them out.
1t was found impossible to get a single
horse to leave the pavilion until the
men, by main force, dragged one
through the doorway and then the 9TH
ers followed rapidly. The flames spread
so rapidly that not all of them could be
saved.

LAST DAYS OF LUETGERT TRIAL.
State Puts on Witnesses to Impeach Testi-
mony of Witnesses for the Defence.


Chicago, Oct. 6.-The taking of testi-
mony in the Luetgert trial moved with
refreshing rapidity to-day. The mysti-
flying technical scientific dissertations
of astrological experts gave place to
short, crisp, impeaching testimony.
Metacarpals, sesamoids femurs, tempo
rails and other bones were stored away
in the judicial cupboard and scandal
was dragged forth to destroy, If possi-
BILE, the reputation for truth and We
racity of the witnesses who had testi-
fled for the defence.
Luetgert came into court smiling. He
had swallowed his disappointment at
not being allowed to testify in his own
behalf.
The reputation of Matt Scholery, who
testified that he saw Mrs. Luetgert in
Kneosha on May. and 4, was attacked
! to-day, and witnesses followed each
other upon the witness stand rapidly to
say that they would not believe Scho-
lery under oath.
William A. Pefel, Andrew Larsen.
Peter Wagner and other neighbors of
the man who was so positive in his
identification of a photograph of Mrs.
Luetgert as the woman he saw in Ke-
nosha two days after Mrs. Luetgert
disappeared, asserted that they would
not believe Scholery under oath. Sharp
cross-questioning brought out the fact
that at one time or another the Witness
es had experienced trouble at the hands
of Scholery
Gordon Clark, who is connected with
the firm from which Luetgert purchas-
ed the barrel of potash, testified that
he once explained to Luetgert that
there was no difference between the
different brands of Hunayadi water.
tai of the story that on the night of
May / Luetgert sent Bialk to a drug
store twice to get the water
State Attorney Deneen announced to-
day that he would have twenty-five re-
buttal witnesses, and that fifteen of
these would come from Kenosha. 1t is
expected that the Pre- secution will
spring a surprise upon the defence by
producing the woman who was seen in
Kenosha and identified as Mrs. Luet-
CERT. She is described as a travelling
evangelist of somewhat eccentric dis
position.
The phonograph men are having fun
with the case. Yesterday afternoon

ESQ CASES OF YEELOW FEVER.
A Marked Increase in the Epidemic al
New Orleans.

New Orleans, Oct. 6.-To-day proved
Der of cases of yellow fever and the
number of deaths that had been re-
ported. The increase of new cases to-
day was unexpected. The weather has
been warm and the large territory the
board of health has to cover makes per-
feet scrutiny impossible. While the
number of cases under treatment to-
day is in the neighborhood of 25O, there
are many houses which have not yet
been disinfected, but in which the pa
tients have been reported well. The
total death rate is still small in pro-
portion to the number of cases.

YALE 1S-AMH ERST o.
The Game at Yale Field Yesterday After.
mountaineering Fine Defense.

The Yale VARSITY eleven yesterday
score 1870 The game was rather slow,
the weather evidently being too warm
for the men to work hard In the sec
ond half, however, things livened up
and the play in the latter part Of this
half had some snap. Amherst played a
fine defensive game and during the
greater part of the game held Yale we'll,
only allowing slight gains, and in some
instances no gains at all. Yale's chief
gains were made around the ends.
CadWalader kicked a neat goal from
each of the touchdowns, the pigskin in
each instance sailing neatly and square
ly over the rail between the goal posts
at different angles.
Cutten and Ely, who We're slightly in
jured in practice Tuesday, were not out
yesterday. Each received strains of the
ligaments of the leg and while the in
juries are not serious, they will prob
ably not do much work this week. Cut
tens place was yesterday taken by Nc
Farland and Ely's by Dc Saulles.
w. c. Dudley, Amherst's center held
Mcfarland easily, and in fact Am
herst's entire center held it's ground or
made slight gains throughout the game.
1t was evident soon after the game be-
gan that Amherst was weak on the
ends, especially the left, and it was to
this quarter that Yale's efforts were
chiefly directed with success. Two of
Yale's touchdowns were made in the
ffr-ct hTy Map prid

the appointment of q receiver. The ap-
plication is made for the purpose of
VI aWinding up the affairs of the company.
LIT is supposed that the assets are con-
,&siderably in excess of the liabilities.
& An inventory taken last July showed
1sasscts amounting to $4,000, while the
liabilities in the middle of September
2iwere only about $685. 900. 1t is thought
that the excess of assets over liabilities

BALTIMORE GETS ANOTHER.
Now Leads Boston In the Series for the
Temple Cup.

Iemple Cup.
Boston, Oct 6-The last ball game of
the season and the third in the Temple
cup series was as dull and uninterest-
ing a contest as has been seen here for
many day. The Ba1timores won with
ridiculous ease, and closed their en-
gagement here by practically exhaust
ing the pitching talent of the Bostons.
In the three games all four of the new
champions crack twirlers have taken
their turn in receiving the severest kind
of a pounding, and for the third sue
cessive game the home team was oblig-
ed to make a change before the game
was over.
Lewis however, was taken out to-day
more because of his wildness than for
the Orioles hard batting, although
when he did put them over the plate,
hits came as usual. A slight shower
their half of the eighth and the game
was called the score reverting to the
seventh and cutting off four runs and
five hits for the visitors. Hoffer kept
the Boston's hits scattered and while
somewhat wild at times was not hit
to any extent except in the third. The
weather at the start was a duplicate Of
the previous days but before six in
nings had been played the sky darken-
ed, and if the shower had not come up
the game would have been called at the
end of the eigth.
The enthusiasm to-day which in the
two preViOnS games was n marked feat
ure, was utterly lacking, the ''roote~e"
being apparently disheartened with the
ease with which the Baltimores uispvs-
eded of the Boston pitchers. The score
was s to 3.

INTERCOLLE TENNIS.
Whitman, Forbes and Hooker Win in

whitman Forbes and Hooker Win In
Sincles-Yaie Men Beaten in Doubles.
The second day of the intercollegiate
tennis tournament was most auspicious.
The close contests of the previous day
brought forth a large crowd of specta-
tors and they We're all well repaid for
their attendance. The events of the
morning were singles between Hooker
of Yale and Fuller of Cornell; Ware
and Whitman Of Harvard and Dodge
of Yale and Forbes of Harvard.
The playing was begun at $50 by
Whitman and Ware the former win.
ming by the score of 63, 6-3. The con-
test of Dodge and Forbes was the
hardest of the day, every second of
play being full of good work by both
men. 1t was hoped that the Yale man
would win, but Forbes proved the VIC
tor. The score was 1913, ST., 6-2.
In the Hooker Fuller contests the
former strained his side and was unable
to keep up the brilliant work he had
counts for his losing.
The afternoon contest was double
between Whitman and Ware of Har-
ward and Hooker and Dodge of Yale.
The Yale men We're easily defeated, the
score being GA, 6-2.
Ward and Davis of Harvard also
easily defeated Noyes and Hackett of
Yale, the score being 6-2, Ga.
The semi-finals in singles will be
played to-day between Whitman and
Forbes of Harvard and Hooker of Yale
and Thomson of Princeton. The finals
in both the singles and doubles will be
played on Friday.
