RETAIL. MERCHANTS HEAVY LOSERS.
Goods in Course of Delivery Wer,
Badly Damaged.

Retail merchants throughout St. Louis
report that Saturdays wind and rain
caused more damage TO goods in delivery
wagons than has ever been sustained be-
fore during Il single day IN this city. Ac-
cording 10 reports, hundreds OF dollars
worth of merchandise was damaged in
course OF delivery, and consequently refused
by the purchasers.
The losses extended TO every class of re-
tail business The large department stores
and downtown groceries, however. were the
heaviest losers. Drivers of delivery wagons
say that rubber curtains and canvas Gov
erings awaited nothing asHinSt the driving
rain. The water blew in through the front
and rear ends OF the wagons and drenched
everything inside.
In the afternoon many of the local deliv-
cry express companies refused to carry any
goods. unless the owner assumed reSponsi-
bility for damage. In the outlying districts
small factories and stores telephoned In
vain for delivery wagons. They were told
that until the rain and wind subsided no
wagons or vans would be furnished.
Several classes of business Were pract1c-
ally at a standstill during the storm 1t
was impossible to secure supplies, and in
many instances entire forces OF workmen
We're allowed to go home. Many families in

pointed ut the failure of their butchers aui

reputation: from drought TO a deluge. And
the rain shows no abatement The sky is
bright with sunshine one minute and the
large drops are pouring down the next.

harvest, has put the corn in great shape,
and Kansas, with her great corn acreage,
will harve;t bumper crop this year. AL
ready the stalks are seven and eight feet
high. The fields need cultivation, but there
is plenty of time yet for that. Nothing hut
