of the seed warehouse just as the front
walls fell into the street. She was heard
to cry out in terror, hut b fore any one
could get to the spot the walls of other
buildings began falling, and the sidewalks
and street became piled up with debris.
To add to the disaster, the ruins caught
fire and stopped any attempt to search for
the bodies of the dead for several hours.
The property loss will foot mp over $500

so much speculation has been had, has
been incorporated under the laws of the
State of Indiana as the Union Broom
Supply Company, with headquarters in
Chicago. The object of the association
has been 60 corner the broomcorn market,

having over $2,000,000 invested in a
quantity estimated at between $4,000 and
10000 tons, or seven-eighths of the total
crop of 1899. Prices of broomcorn have
been advanced orer $50 per cent already,

well as their hopes, are realized, these
prices will be very much further m
creased.
