The Chicago Wheat Market

Chicago, December 25.-The wheat
market during the past week, consider
ing the effect of the nearness of the
holiday season, was fairly active and
in the main strong, May showing an
advance Of 25sc, while December, not
withstanding the enormous receipts of
contract grade wheat and the amount
delivered to the bull clique, has fairly
we'll maintained it's position, closing but
12c lower. Taken all in all, it was a
scalping market throughout. Both the
strength and activity were marked dur
ing the first part of the week. The
Letter interests were especially active
in the buying on Monday when the
greatest advance was scored. Persist
ent rU1nOr'S that the immense stock of
wheat accumula ted by them was to be
moved away and that coitre cts for
shipment all rail to the seaboa.'d had
been let, strengthened the belief that
the December deal was to be extended
into May. "A peculiar feature Of the
weeks trading was the business done
in July and September contracts, in
dfcating a tendency on the part of the
directors to keep out of May under the
existing circumstances. The firmness
of outside markets and the strength Of
coarse grains were both sustaining in
fluences. Deliveries of December con-
tract wheat during the week were enor-
nous. They were principally from
Armour and nearly all We're taken by
the Letter interests. 1t is believed,
however, there is still a large short in
terest and the final day of settlement
is looked forward to with interest.
The stock Of contract wheat now here
amounts to about 100000 bushels. The
range of prices in May was between
94A and 91Ato 91Bc, the close yester-
day being at 973s.

Two Fires in Chicago

Chicago, December 25.-Three fire
men were injured, one fatally, and two
seriously and s125.OO0 Of damage was
done by a fire which Ibroke out this
morning in the six-story building,
Fifth avenue and Monroe street, Occu-
pied by the Knickerbocker Shirt Com
pany, and a number of other concerns.
Chicago, December 25.-For the third
time flames this morning destroyed the
building of the Quadrangle Club of the
University Of Chicago. There were
seven persons in the building at the
time and all escaped. Two Of these,
however, were more or less hurt.
The janitor and his Wife were asleep
on the third floor when the fire broke
out, and without stopping to dress,
they made a rope of their bed clothes,
as the escape to the stairway was cut
off and lowered themselves safely out
Of the window. The loss on the build
ing will amount to $4,000. The Quad
rang1e Club is composed OF professors
and postgraduate students OF the uni
versity. The building was owned by
the university and the loss will fall or

A CHRISTMAS CASULTY.
Explosion Of a Can of Powder at AshevfIle
While Firing n Christmas Salute-Many
Persons Injured-An Appalling Scene

Asheyil1e N. c., December 25.-A
crowd of 100 or more men and boys
were firing a Christmas salute from
an old cannon on the outskirts of the
town today, when can OF thirty
pounds of powder exploded in the thick
of the crowd. Thirty or forty persons
We're injured, but none, it is believed,
fatally. The cannon stands on the
crest of a hill just north of the city,
overlooking the French Broad river,
and has been used for years in cele-
brating holidays. This forenoon, hav-
ing procured ammunition for the sa-
lutte, a party of one hundred set out
for the hill The cannon was loaded
and fired several times and then JOS.
Finch, an employe of the Southern
Railway Company, running on the
Asheville and Spartanburg division,
picked up the powder can and began
to reload the piece. The gun had not
been swaIbbed and the moment the
tiny stream of powder struck the
heated metal, there was a flash and
thirty pounds of powder exploded
with a report that made the earth
trenpble. A moment later there Was a
scene that made sick the hearts of
those watching the hill from their
homes on the river In the smoke that
rose from the explosion they saw hu-
man beings run fblindly here and there
over the hill falling and rising only to
fall again ais they frantically rushed
about, blinded and powder burned and
madly trying to extirguish their fam
ing clothes. Those who were unhurt
ran to the aid of their unfortunate
,lo ,fo l, oIn h
ing or cutting the garments from their
bodies. One man was blown or rolled
completely down the high bluff 200 feet
nearly to the river.
People in the neighborhOod ran to
the scene and the work of giving as
sistance to the injured began. The hill
was dotted with tbla cke ned, groanine
figures, some of whom lay almost per
fectly nude. "A number of the injur-
ed were able to walk from the scene
while cots were provided and gentle
hands placed the more seriously
wounded on them and conveyed them
to an old residence near by, which was
imprOvised into a hospital.
The most seriously injured follows
Joseph Finch, Edward lIiller, Johr
Ingle, Barton Means, Clarence Ledford
Vernon Sentell, Charles Earwood, Hay
Eaton, Eugene Wynne. D. Bennett
Dexter Aldrich, John Powell, B. L
GOwan, Henry Mcintyre, Buck Trivett
Bell Bishop, George Eaton, J. E. Ham.
iltOn, James Warren, Frank PraItter
The porch and hall of the house Were
soon filled with anguished relatives OF
the injured and the scene was pitiful
Joseph Finch had his nose anC
mouth torn out of all shape and he i:
probably blinded.
Clarence Ledford, who stood near thu
cannon when the powder ignited, was
thrown more than fifty feet. Hi
clothing was torn and burned entirely
off and a part Of the skin on the fore
head burned loose. Several other:
probably will lose their sight or be dis
figured for life

The alleged attempt Of the Prince OF
Monaco to bleed" the Casino Company
has led to the publication OF a PAM
phlet by a group OF shareholders, full
of interesting reading. While every
body is aware that the casino contrib
uted largely to his revenues, few peo-
pie knew that, besides the subsidy of
the prince, the establishment keerts up
the judges, police, lighting, water, post
office. clergy, and charitable institu-
tions. An interesting item of last sea-
sons expenditures is press subven-
tions E25.0O0.
The pamphlet says that it is absolute
ly necessary to eXpeld a large sum in
securing the good will of the continen-
tai press and it is said that over half
Of the cases of suicides are only bids
upon the part Of Riviera new spapers
for a share of DOODLE"
1t appears that the Prince Of Monaco
attended a recent meeting of the
shareholders and offered to renew the
concession for fifty years, the terms
being gradual increase CT his personal
subsidy until the sum reaches G100, 900
annually, new port to be britt at the
cost of e320,000, an opera house to be
built, costing fS0,00O and various other
items making a total of G190,0 addi-
tiOnal annually
Although the prince has signed the
new concessions. it remains to be seen
whether the forthcoming meeting of
the shareholders will APP rove accept
ing these eXorbitant trims.

Department OF State.


Washington. Dec. 24th. 1897.
by direction of the president, the
public is informed that. in Difference
to the earnest desire OF the govern
ment to contribute by effective action
toward the relief OF the suffering pe,-
pie in the island of Cuba, arrange men ts
have been perfected by which chayi-
table contributions, in money OF I'm
kind, can be sent to the island by the
benevolently disposed people Of the
United States.
Money, provisions, clothing, medi-
cines and the like articles OF prime
necessity, can lbe forwarded to General
Fitzhugh Lee, the consul-gencral Of the
United States al Habana. and all ar
ticles now dutiable by law, so >. con-
signed, will be admitted into Cuba free
of duty. The consul general has been
instructed to receive the same and tn
cooperate with the local authorities
and the charitable boards for the dis
tribution OF such relief among the des-
titute and needy people Of Cuba.
The president is confident that the
people OF the United States, who have
on many occasions in the past respond
ed most generously to the cry for
bread from peoples striken by famine
or sore calamity and who have baheld
the general communities when their
own countrymen suffered from fire and
flood, will heed the appeal for aid that
comes from the destitute al their own
threshold and especially at this season
OF good will and rejoicing. Will give
or their abundance to this humane
end. JOHN SHERMAN"
The appeal was issued after consulta-
ton with Minister de LONE The
Spanish minister called at the state de-
r Tartment about noon today and con-
ferred with Judge Day concerning the
relief of the reconcentradoes on the
island. He made il clear that the
Spanish government would cooperate
in any relief measures. and that there
was entire willingness that the supplies
go direct to Consul General Lee. in
stead of through the Spanish relief
channels. The negotiations nave been
proceeding for some time. The first ac-
tive step in this direction was taken by
the president December 1st and was
in the form Of a request that the minis
ter learn from his government whether
the regular tariff duties would be re-
mitted on relief supplies sent to Cuba
Minister de LONE soon afterwards an
swered that Spain had consented to
grant even more than had been re-
quested and that the duties would be
renitted not only on articles which tho
president had referred to. but also on
all medicines, soap, salt and similar ar
ticles of prime necessity which might
enter into the plan of relief The only
condition attached was that tire sup
plies should go through the regular re-
lief committees established at Havana
| OF which the bishop OF Havana Is tho
| chairman.
