A COMMERCIAL SURPRISE
Drug store Nm Moline In the
Shevi6'S Hands.

CIsndsnin's Drug store Nm Moline In the
Sheyi6's Hands.
In the Cook county circuit court at
Chicago yesterday Gen. William
Clendenin, Of Moline, entered q con-
fession Of judgment in favor of DR..
P. L. McKinnie. OF Evanston, former.
ly of Moline. for &1.O35 This morn.
ing Deputy Sheriff Gettemy took pos
session of Gen. Clendenin's drug
store in the Keator house block.
The total amount Of the liabilities
are unknown. but it is supposed they
will aggregate $4,000, and among
them is a claim of 5000 from Hartz
& Bahnssn company, wholesale drug
gists. Of this city. The assets can
not be determined until an inventory
is taken. The failure is said to be
due to the default of Frank Glen
denim. Of Joliet, in notes aggregat.
ing 81 200. and which Gen Glen.
denim endorsed. The assignment
has caused great surprise in Moline,
where Gen. Clendenin had been in
the drug business since 1873.

FRIDAY. Aug. 10.
Tho reaction in the stock market that took
place to-day was certainly warranted by specu-
lative conditions. The dealings in stocks dur
ing the last four days were enormous. and tho
advance in prices practically continuous. 1t
would be strange indeed II n market Of tho
breadth and strength OF the last few days did
not invite realizing sales by important interests.
as well as by small operators. The most
significant feature of the market 10
that to-day reaction was not more pro-
nounced. The fact that 1t was comparatively
slight is evidence that the buying power Is moro
extensive than even the most enthusiastic bulls
have believed. In addition to speculative con-
