CORN FLUCTUATIONS
WITHIN 2-CENT RANGE
Things Expected in the Corner Do Not
Come Off-Future of Deal
ProbIematicaI.

CHICAGO, July 9.-Developments in
the corn, deal today were the failure
of at least two expectations. One was
that the bottom will drop out of the
market because of the settlements with
outstanding shorts which would mean
the abandonment of the deal by the
bull traders, and the other that the
screws would be given a turn by the
Harris Gates people and the price
forced still higher.
Neither happened and the price NOV
ed quietly along within a range of 2
cents, fiuctuating between sc and 50
cents, and closing at the lowest point
of the day, cent lower than Tues
day
Not over 100000 bushels of the cor
nered grain was traded in during the
session. The big ones, and these may
be covered in a general way under the
title of "the elevator interests" are
still out. There are apparently only
two places where they can cover. One
seemingly is in the corn pit on Change
and the other the private Office of Har-
ris, Gates & Co. The size of the trans
actions show that they have not bought
openly, while a member of the Harris
Gates firm insists he knows nothing of
any private settlement.

THREE PRISONERS
DYNAMITE A JAIL
Entire Rear Wall of ST. Joseph Struc-
ture Blown out-Men- Are Cap
tured by the Guards.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, July AT 1890
o'clock today James Blades, Leck AL
len and James Murray notorious pris-
oners in the Buchanan county Jail,
wrecked the rear wall of the Jail build
ing with a powerful charge of dyna-
mite.
Allen, Blades and Murray the9. made
fierce fight for liberty, but the guards
were too quick for them and beat them
back with Winchesters. Seventy-five
prisoners are confined in the Jail, but
many of them made no effort to escape
and those who were nervy enough to
try to follow Blades and his compan-
ions were dubbed into submission. No
one was injured. The explosion was
felt for several blocks and every win
dow in the court house on the side next
to the Jail was shattered. Blades and
Allen are under sentence for highwaE
robbery and Murray is a government
prisoner.
Other prisoners We're apprised of
what was to happen about five min
utes before the fuse was lighted and
on the advice of the leaders of the plot
they sought safety in their cells just
before the explosion occurred. The
jailer was at dinner in another part of
the building.
The damage to the jail and court
house is estimated to be $500 and un-
til repairs can be made, a large armed
guard will be necessary to restrain the
prisoners.

MUST AGREE TO CLOSE
FAIR ON SUNDAYS
Otherwise the Louisiana Purchase Ex-
position Commission Cannot Have
Salaries and Expenses.

WASHINGTON, d. c., July 9.-The
comptroller of the treasury today de-
cided that the salaries and expenses
of the Louisiana Purchase exposition
commission could not be paid until the
provision of the act appropriating
So, 100000 for the exposition, which re-
quires 'as condition precedent that
the directors shall contract to close
the gates to visitors on Sunday during
the whole duraction of the fair" is
executed.
The salaries and expenses of the
commission were paid June 1, when
the action referred to above was called
to the attention of the secretary of
treasury. He asked the comptroller
for his opinion July 8. In deciding
the question, Comptroller Tracewell
says
1T is canon of construction with
out exception that force and effect
must be given to every word of the
statute where it is possible to do so.
If the payment in question can be
made regardless of the performance
of the condition precedent set forth
in the colsing of the act, viz: The
contract for the closing of the gates
to visitors on Sunday curing the whole
duration of the fair or exposition, then
no effect is given to this language,
which, however, one may doubt the
wisdom and efficacy, no one can doubt
its plain meaning and intent. 1t is my
opinion that no salary should be paid
any such commission until such con-
tract is executed

Special to The Globe.
CHICAGO. July 9.-Fears are ex-
pressed by DIR. Charles W. Behm, of
the health department, that Chicago's
steady friend, the lake breeze, will not
be in evidence this whole summer. DR..
Behm is we'll versed in meteorology
and he has been studying the climatic
conditions closely. He blames Mont
Pelee, or the conditions which led up
to the eruption by the Martinique vol
cano.
I'm Michigan they are falling to en-
JOY their regular night east wind"
DR.. Benin said This year the winds
are coming from the north and north
west most of the time. Chicago's lake
breeze has not been coming in from the
lake as regularly as before and 1 think
the conditions which give rise to it are
out of order. The worldwide electri-
cal disturbance which eliminated in
the upheaval in Martinique is probably
the cause of the change in atmospheric
conditions here"

CHINESE ARE TO
REOCCUPY TEN TSIN
Secretary Hay Succeeds in Securing
an Arrangement Pretty Salts
factory to All Concerned.

WASHINGTON. D. c., July 9.-Sec-
retary Hays prompt action upon the
appeal of the Chinese government
through Yuan Shi Kai and Minister
WI relative to the evacuation of Tien
Tsin has met with success. The for
eign generals who have stood in the
way of evacuation will receive instruc-
tions from their home governments,
and, although one or two minor points
remain to be adjusted, it is believed
Tlen TSin will soon be turned over to
the Chinese authorities.
Secretary Hay, doubling whether
anything could be accomplished di-
rectly through the diplomats at Pekin,
though action had been contemplat-
ed, decided to address himself direct
ly to the governments interested in
the Chinese question and maintaining
forces in Tien Tsin. This was done
through the American ambassadors
and ministers resident at the various
European courts and Toxic. Answers
have been received from nearly all of
these.
The latest to come to hand today
were from. France ana Germany, and
quite Unexpectedly they have all prov
en- to be favorable to the United
States contention. The powers are
now agreed to instruct their generals
at Tfen Tsin to abandon the condition
sought to be imposed as a precedent
to evacution, that, save the small po-
lice force of 800 men, the Chinese mil
itary forces must be kept at distance
of not less than thirty kilometers from
Tien Tsin. Although there were some
other Objectionable features in the
agreement which the generals requir-
ed from the Chinese, they were of
comparatively little Importance in the
Chinese mind, compared to this con-
dition as to the position of the Chi
nese troops, and as this obstacle has
been removed a speedy conclusion is
expected of the Tien Tsin negotiations.

People.

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, July g.
The active volcanoes of Costa Rica,
Miravallis and Rincond de la Viejas,
situated respectively eighty and six
ty miles southeast of Lake Nicaragua,
gave days warning previous to their
recent eruption. No natives are re-
ported to have lost their lives.
The country around the volcanoes is
sparsely settled, being mainly cattle
estates. The mountains are distant
from the lake and ocean and the wa
ter supply in their vicinity is moder-
ate. Therefore they are not severe
ly explosive. The principal cause for
the outbreaks are chemical action and
the readjusting of the earth's crust.

low wood, which takes high polish.
Ebony is all going out because it is so
hard to get good specimens of it now

but that which Is imported now is full
OF gray atreaks, which spoil it.
Some one once said that mahogany
was the king Of woods and he was not
far wrong. It is certainly the most
t--rr,s On srcount of its hardness and
the polish that It takes gives II a right
to the title.
Chinese teak wood is expensive and
also very defective. Still it is used
very extensively. The keels of the

astts are made OF it, and it cost the
government a pretty penny.

that know Off" was asked of New
York lumber dealer, according TO the
Sun. "6nakewood, guess. It is i'm
ported from the northern part of
South America in logs weighing from
so to 200 pounds, and costs from 10 to
rs cents pound"
An impression exists that mahog-
any is expensive and only to be IN
dulged in by few That is untrue.
The facilities for procuring the wood
and the devices for reducing Il into
lumber have SO improved that its cost
to-day compares favorably with some
Of our domestic hard woods, such as
cherry.
Very little curly maple is used these
days and bir1's-eye maple is compar-
atively cheap for a handsome wood.
II sells in the rough for ten cents
foot and veneers cheaper than most
of the others. Walnut has gone out
of style, too, and has given way to
maple, white and quartered oak, ash,
cherry and birch.
II you think mahogany is very ex-
pensive, what do you Think about Cir
cassian walnut, which we import from
Russia and costs almost double? |
Rosewood, which comes rom South |
America. costs from three to four
times as much as mahogany and is
fully as rich in eoloring. It is used
but little, however, on account of its
cost.
English brown oak IS fully as expen.
Iive as mahogany. At present It is
scarce, as the supply is limited by laws
restricting the cutting Of it. It is also
