Henderson, " e.
DEAR SIRs:-You have taken the agen-
CIV of Devoe Lead and Zinc paint-the
"Fewer-gallons; wears longer" paint.
1t is fair to tell you that it is going to
Lessen the amount of paint sold in your
town for each JOB, but it is going to
ors-than-double the satisfaction that
people have found in other paint; and
you are going to increase your business
by getting more jobs.
1t has never failed to do it, W. B. Ar
mold & Co. Waterville, Maine, bought
$1O5 of Devoe Lead and Zinc in 1898.

V. Rodgers Bros. Mr.. Montani was born
in Utica, n. Y, but for the past twenty
enc years has been a resident of Indlanap-
oils. He will return to this city in Febru-

The unknown man who was found dead

rainy weather, which kept down the
amount of corn delivered 10 them on the
contracts.
A phenomenon which has accompanied
the latest days of the pool operations and
which by many persons has been thought
connected with II, is the movement of
many millions Of currency from New York
to the Chicago banks.
Such movement is certain to come in
August or September each year, when the
crops must be removed, but this year 1t is
earlier. 1t has probably nothing at all TO
do with the corner.
1t is figured that by borrowing on the
corn which is the best kind of security,
at 40 cents a bushel, the syndicate would
have to put in only % cents bushel Of
its own to make payments, and, therefore,
IL could finance the entire 20,O00,OO0 bushels,
IL by any chance so much should be de-
livered with $5,000,010 OF its own money
and that IS a mere bagatelle for the men
in the deal
The future of the July corn corner is
lust what the conditions and the pool
leaders Will make it, and that is about as
near to q prediction anybody can come.
But the deal will not be over with this
month.
The bulls will have to market all the
grain delivered to them. OF their 4.000,0 900
bushels thus far. they have already mar
keted at least coo in the East. What
they get for ii will determine in large part
their profits Beyond this they are sus-
pected very strongly of having taken a
hand in September speculations.

EXCELSIOR PLANT DAMAGED con-
SIDERABLY THIS MORNING.
Contents and Building VIII Reach
Nearly $1,000.

An uprising of gas under the furnace in
the boiler room of the Excelsior laundry
in the Masonic Temple building annex, be-
caused a blaze that looked dangerous for a
quarter of an hour this morning. The
alarm was turned in from Box AZ at about
100 o'clock, and the department made a
quick response. The firemen were handi-
capped in their extertions by the tangle Of
machinery and apparatus in the laundry
room, and it was some time before the
blaze was extinguished and the clouds of
smoke lessened.
The laundry is owned by Major Taylor.
The loss to the contents and machinery is
estimated by Captain Newman, of the
salvage corps, 20 amount to about $500.
The principal loss is in the Mushroom of
the laundry, where valuable machinery is
ruined. 1t could not be ascertained whether
the loss on packages of laundry or on
laundry ready for the wash was heavy,
but it is probably light, for the reason that
laundries deliver their packages Saturday
night. The fire was confined, for the most
part, TO the Mushroom. Captain New
mans corps assisted in saving the ma
chlnery in the ironing room and the fix
lures in the front part of the building.
The loss to the building through ruined
floors, walls and furniture is estimated at
$3.50.
The street in front OF the laundry was
crowded by curious crowd that gasped in
the thick smoke that poured from the
windows smashed in by the firemen. While
the members of hose company were at
tempting to get line of hose TO the build
ing the hose burst and a fountain of cold
water played over a knot of people who
were staring at the building. A number
OF Panama hats were dampened and sever
al summer suits got thorough wetting
There was no one in the building when the
fire broke out and IT was discovered by a
passerby who ran into the Lorraine Hotel
and gave the alarm. Captain Barrett found
that the blaze had originated from the
furnace under the Mushroom, the gas pres
sure apparently having risen suddenly The
estimates of loss given by the fire de-
partment agrees with the statements OF
Captain Newman.
