NOTES OF THE MARKETS.

Cuthbert & Go. say of wheat: "The Chi cago grain market was closed to-day. There was very little news, except the weather reports to trade on, and as these were un- favorable for both wheat and corn and the weather map showed killing frost in Wis consin, Minnesota and elsewhere In the northwest, the market opened firm and ad- vanced 34c from Saturdays closing. There was no cash business reported and the weekly visible supply was postponed until tomorrow.
 The total clearances were 329,6s0 bushels wheat and 319, 239 corn.
 The immediate course of values will de- pend to a great extent upon the weather conditions during the next few days.
 In stocks the bull confidence is unabated The signing of gas bill removes last doubt in regard to the position of Chicago Gas bonds and stocks. The stock Is expected this week to reflect certainty of secure DO. stion. 4 good deal of bull talk on coal stocks this week. More hopeful talk on Leather preferred; the company large buyer of hides, but reported selling leather at low prices. London closed today, but expected to be a buyer tomorrow.

CONFRONTED MANY CROOKS.

As stated yesterday Philip Buxbaum, MT. Goodmans clerk, and George H. Throm, barkeeper at the Elm City hotel, where the diamond thieves are supposed to have stopped, were called to New York Sunday to identify some crooks held by the New York detec- tives on suspicion of having robbed the Goodman store. They were taken to a room full of crooks and told to pick out the men, but, as stated yesterday, were unable to identify any of the num- Der as the ones they saw on the day of the theft. The New Haveners saw the biggest collection of crooks on ex- hibition they ever contemplated, but their errand was fruitless.

 WILCOX & WHITE ASSIGN.
Failure of the Big Organ Company of
 Meriden.

Meriden, June 7.-The Wilcox & White Organ Co.,, one of the largest manufacturers of organs in the United States, to-day made an assignment, naming ex-Mayor E. J. Doolittle of this city as trustee. Some months ago it was known that the concern was in financial difficulty, but at that time the stockholders and a number of Meriden blsiness men got together and it was understood that matters had been sat- tsfactorily adjusted.
 The company, when organized in 1876, established many branch houses. through which it's goods were sold, the company taking notes for the goods. Later these branch houses were sold out, the company assumed the notes, became the endorsers and negotiated them. In this way great many notes were held by the banks bearing the companys indorsement.
 When the hard times came the mak CTS of the notes were unable to meet
 
 to pay them. This paper was held by some of the Meriden banks, as well as by several banks out of town, and on account of the business depression some of the banks were unable to con- tinue their accommodation to the com- pany, which, being unable to obtain new sources for carrying the notes, of course could not meet them.
 J. H. White of the company was ur- able to give a statement of the assets and liabilities to-day. The direct l1a- bilfties, he said, outside of the contin- gent liabilities, would not exceed $75,OOO. The factory was closed this morning. There were about 120 hands employed, and the company has large number of orders thrilled. It is probable that the factory will soon be started again, under the direction of the trustee.

Denver, June 7.-Schlatter came to Denver in the summer of 1895, and his career here attracted whispered public interest. His presence made Denver the central point to which journeyed thousands of sick and afflicted from all over the country.
 Schlatter lived in Denver with Alder man Fox, and gave public "treat- ments" in hall or theater, at which an admission fee was charged. Then there were treatments" to all who came to MT Fox's house. He became known as the New Messiah" and 'The Healer" He blessed handkerchiefs, and 1t was said that any one touching these handkerchiefs would be "healed." "Fakirs'' did thriving business in this line. They adve ised blessed hand kerchiefs" for the small sum of $1, and raked in hundreds of dollars until they were arrested by the authorities. Schlatter was wanted as a witness in this case, and many thought that he disappeared from Denver on November 13 because he did not want to testify. He left a note in his own handwriting, saying:
 "Mr. Fox-My mission is finished. The Father takes me away. Goodbye. FRANCIS SCHLATTER." After he disappeared from Denver, Schlatter was reported at various times in the mountains of Arizona and New | Mexico, and many weird stories were | told of his flight.
 | Many remarkable stories were told of cures made by Schlatter in Denver. On | the last day he was in the city he treated" no fewer than five thousand people, He did not profit in a worldly way by his six months of self-imposed labors, which were of an extremely fa- tiguing nature. After the six hours daily spent in standing at the head of the line, clasping the hands of his vis- itors, he retired to the house, rested for a time. and then set to work upon his
 mail, answering letters until long into
 the night. That mail is estimated tc
 have amounted toward the end to over
 forty thousand pieces day.

DIDN'T LIKE FAT BEEF.
First Experience of n Bride on n Mar
ketfnS Trip.

First Experience of n Bride on n Mar
keting Trip.
Almost at first glance one would
know that she had not long been ac-
quainted with the duties of market
ing. In fact, she looked very bridish.
She wore beautiful morning gown
and carried herself with grace. When
she stalked into the grocery with her
little white hands firmly closed over a
brand new pocketbook, self-satisfied
smile lowering about the corners of
her pretty mouth and general air of
self-confdence about her, everyone took
time to gaze upon the fair creature.
But 1t was apparent that the role was
an entirely new one to her. She had
assumed a matronly look, but 1t did not
harmonic with her real self.
She was not attired in way to lead
one to think that she had recently been
led to the altar. There were no grains
of rice in her hair, nor were there any
old shoes attached to her person; still
there was something that plainly
stamped her ''bride."
She wanted very much to conceal her
new position in life, and even had
she succeeded in doing SO by her action
her visit to the grocer's would have
given the snap away.
The unmatronly-looking young wom-
an stumbled partly through her order,
and then she came to the item of ham,
She told the accommodating clerk that,
even though most people preferred ham
little fat, she did not want it that way,
because she ibid not like fat beef in any
shape"
And not soul in the entire establish
ment smiled, for she made the remark
with so much feeling and earnestness
that to have even cast a knowing glance
would have been wickedness in its
worst form.-Toledo Blade.
