Chicago Quotations Stop.

Chicago, Ills., Aug 1.-Gold and
stock tickers gave no Chicago board
Of trade quotations on grain and pro
visions today and exchanges of other
cities and local commission houses and
bucket shops had to depend on other
means to secure quotations. A recent
ruling Of the board of trade barring the

from sending out quotations went into
effect today and tickers of that com
pany handled instead the fluctuations
of New York, Minneapolis, Duluth, ST.
Louis and other exchanges. Commits
sion houses with board of trade con-
nections were supplied with quotations
by new Cleveland telegraph company
which is under contract with the board
of trade to handle its quotations ex-
clusively in Chicago and furnish them
only to legitimate houses. In conse-
quence a very few bucket shops had

NICARAGUA TAKES POSSESSION,
The Maritime Canal company's Time
Has Expired. The Government
Seizes The Property.


Managua, Nicaragua, Aug. 1.-The
government of Nicaragua has taken
possession of the property of the Mar,
time Canal company and removed the
oompany's cars, rails, and property to
the interior from Greytown, under arti-
Gle 81 of the concession.
August LIST, was the date set for the
assembling of the Nicaraguan con-
gress in regular session. One subject
to come up was confirming the decis-
ion of the courts and the official dccla-
ration of the minister of public works
that the time granted the maritime
canal company, of New York, in which
to construct the inter-ocean ship canal
across Nicaragua, had expired and the
concession was null and void. It is
probable the seizure of the company's
property has been made in conformity
with the decision and declaration
above mentioned, possibly reinforced
by congressional action.

Of the fact that he and the officials are
persuading the people that the South

Got Joeeph.

Word comes from Ozark Of a real
estate deal which has just been con
sumated in the Elk Valley mining dis
trlct, two miles south of the Christian
county capital. 1t seems that
some South Dakota parties owned
32-acre tract that had been mined
onto 9 considerable extent few years
ago and had lately been opened up
sgain. The owners had besen Offering
to sell the land for 800 per acre, and
had received an offer of $40.
The story goes that Joseph Harker,
owner or one of the owners, arrived
here from his home in South Dokota
with q view of closing deal. He
went down to Ozark and did not take
time to go out to look at the land or
he would have seen scene of activi-
ty that would have changed his ideas
as to the value of the property, as on
this land is one of the biggest ore
bodies and plants in the district. In
stead of looking up the land himself,
he spent the time in making deal
and compromised ON $50 per acre and
came to back to Springfield to execute
papers

ing to go to Ozark to close the tran
action he found some Ozark men
waiting to see him, with an offer of
$3.50 per acre for the land, or over So
600 more thln.he had sod it for the day
previous. That this proposition took
the wind out of him and mado him

be easily imagined, as he had made
the contract and accepted money as
payment. The next time he starts
