FATAL CROSSING ACCIDENT.
Two Children Killed and Six Per-
sons Injured.

MIDDLETOWN IN. W, Aug. f.
Two children killed and six persons in
jured, several probably fatally, is the
record of an accident which occurred on
the New York, Ontario and Western
Railroad just north of Rockland, Sui
Ivan County.
A combined observation car and To-
connective, bearing E. Garfield, the Gen
eral superintendent and Charles H.
Hopkins, the Superintendent of the
southern division of the road, struck a
wagon containing John Maulick and
his wife and six children. The acct
dent occurred at the Hollywood high
way crossing. Wagon and occupants
were hurled forty feet down an en-
bankment into the rocky bed of the
Willowemoo RIVER. One of the chill
dren was instantly killed, another died
soon after the accident and other mem
bers of the family are not expected to
survive
The crossing is one of the most dan
gerous on the line of the railroad. The
tracks just before crossing the high
way descend a steep grade, and a sharp
curve in the railroad renders 1t impos-
sible to see the approach of a train I'M
til it is near the crossing.

STRIKE IN GEORGIA.
White Women Refuse to Work
With Negroes.

ATLANTA (Ga.), Aug 1.-Two hun
dred women and girls employed at the
Fulton Bag and Cotton Mills in this
city struck this morning because of the
employment of negro help by the man
agreement.
The operatives learned yesterday that
twenty-five cClored women We're to be
put to work in the folding department
to-day The white females employed in
the mills gathered about the main en-
trance this morning, and awaited the
arrival of the President, Jacob Eslsas
The negro women were already there
When Mr. Elsas came the white women
asked whether it was true that he pro-
posed to put negroes to work with them.
He said he did, and that white women
refused to go to work.
AT noon the 400 men employed in the
mills walked out in obedience to the
orders of the Textile Workers Union,
and in sympathy with the striking fe-
male operatives. This forced the clos
ing down of the factory Strikers gath
cred about the mills, and for a time it
looked as If there would be a riot.
The company is one of the Oldest and
lagest in the South. Eight hundred
men, women and children are affected
by the strike

WHEAT CIRCLES EXCITED.
ANOTHER ADVANCE REPORT
ED AT LIVERPOOL.
The Price at Chicago Jumps Up
ward, Drops Again, but Closes
AT an Advance.

CHICAGO, Aug. At was again an
advance at Liverpool that supplied the
motive for a fresh rise here at the
start. September, which yesterday
closed at nc, opened irregularly at
from 771s to 7712, the offerings at the
lower quotation being trifling. Those
We're largely added to by an energetic
jump to IS 1t dropped again suddenly
to T11s, and as quickly rose again, this
time to 1914.
The Liverpool advance before trad
ing started here was 214d per Genital, or
about the equivalent of "a cents per
bushel. The great export business done
yesterday and numerous acceptances of
cargoes and smaller parcels ordered by
cable yesterday afternoon from Chi
cago and the seaboard was, of course,
| an element of the influences at work
that created the early strength.
The feverish fluctuations at the same
time gave an exact Interpretation OF
| the unsettled feeling among the specu-
latorS. The price had another break
to 1865 cents before the expiration of
the first hour and half of the session,
and a rally following twenty minutes
ed everything offered last night, and
the United Kingdom bought what No.
, spring had been offered. 1t was still
claimed, however, that seaboard ex-
porters We're having much trouble in
getting the Kansas hard wheat they
had already sold to go abroad.
The Chicago receipts were 136 cars,
against IA cars a year ago, of which
13o were new. Primary Western mark
ct receipts were 776 705 bushels against
$50, 1870 bushels the corresponding day
of 1886. the clearances for export
from the Atlantic ports were very lib
eral, the wheat alone being 1892
bushels.
The amount of export takings re-
ported from New York had by u
o'clock swelled to 100 boat loads, and
% loads, or 10000 bushels, were re-
ported done from here direct The
latter was No. l northern spring and
No. = spring. The latter grade sold
in considerable quantities between To-
cal dealers at premiums over the Sep
TENDER price ranging, according to To-
| cation and desirability of sample, from
Il to y cents per bushel
AS an indication OF the demand still
existing among country millers for
spring wheat, it may be mentioned that
| one carload of No. 1 northern brought
five cents per bushel premium
The latest sensation in the shape of
market information was the closing
quotations from foreign markets. I4iv-
erpool wound up a gain for the day
equal to 10 cents per bushel Paris 21s
and Antwerp cents. Prices reached
the highest point of the day near the
close, re-acting only ii. September
