ATTEMPT TO WRECK
PENSACOLA TRAIN

PENSACOLA, Fla, June 17.-An ur1do-
cessful attempt to wreck suburban train
filed with passengers was made late Sat-
urday night. A dummy line train was re-
turning from the navy yard. and when
about one mile from the city and just
about to pass over trestle, the engine
pilot struck an obstruction, almost throw
ing the entire train into the water. An
investigation brought out the discovery
that parties as yet unknown had placed
two large rocks in the centre OF the track
with an evident purpose OF precipitating
the train into the water. When the en-
CINE struck them. the latter were driven
into the gravel between the crossties, and
this saved the train. The engine was bad
~ damaged. Passengers were given Sc
we're shaking up, but no one was serious
~ hurt.
There has been obtained no clue TO the
preparation, but Sheriff Smith has the
matter under investigation.

ROBERT NELSON KILLED
BY FALL FROM HIS ENGINE

Robert II. Nelson. a fireman on the
Southern, either fell or was knocked from
the engine of fast train No. 16 from Chat
tanooga as 1t passed through the little
station of Varnell Ca. Monday after
noon about o'clock. The engineer did
not miss his fireman unuti half mile had
been traversed. The train was then
backed to the station. where the engineer
had last seen him and there the mangled
body was discovered
The body was Just beside the water
chute at the station and 1t is thought he
must have leaned out as the train was
passing and was knocked from the en-
CINE by striking against the chute. The
man had been dead several minutes when
the body was found and It is thought
death must have been instantaneous.

OF sufficient moment to urge the believers in
lower prices to pull together and hammer the
market down further, which they did but not
satisfactorily to the general element. There
was no inclination upon the part OF longs to
increase their lines but on the other hand they
were always ready to let go what little re-
naming lots they held. The stock Of cotton at
present Is exceedingly light and the fact that
there is a good demand for spots is evidence
enough to show what Is holding cotton up at
the present level.
Receipts continue light-estimated today

PLEA FOR BEEF TRUST
EUsTIs so CHARACTERIZES
THURBER'S SPEECH.
After Much Discussion the Address

cords of the Trans Missis-
sippi Commercial Congress.

st. Paul, Mimi, Aug. 21.-Seattle was
tonight selected as the city for holding
the next convention of the Trans-Missis-
sippi Congress in 1903. New Orleans was
the only other candidate.
The feature of today's session was the
animated discussion of the resolution in
troduced yesterday by Henry Eustis of
Minneapolis, demanding that the address
of F. B. Thurber of New York, which
Mr.. Eustis's resolution declared was a
specious plea in behalf of the so-called
beef trust be eliminated from the records
of the Congress. Mr.. Eustis argued that
the printed proceedings of the Congress
should not be made the vehicle for dis.
seminating literature of this class. which
he asserted did not represent the views
of the majority of the delegates.
A number of other delegates warmly
supported Mr. Eustis while others as
warmly opposed him. Those opposed took
the ground that Mr. Thurber. having been
invited to address the Congress. was en-
titled as a matter of courtesy to have his
remarks embodied in the printed proceed
ings. After much discussion. which at
times became personal. Mr.. Eustis with
drew the resolution.

CORN SHORTS SQUEEZED.
Five Cents is Added to the Price of
Corn in Chicago Grain Pit.

Chicago, Aug 21-Shorts in the corn
pit were squeezed badly today and raised
a tumult that closely resembled the re-
cent scrimmages when John w. Gates
and his clique of bulls had July corn cor
nered.
The action in the pit today was largely
the result of the early manipulattons.
When the Gates crowd was pushing prices
skyward, the farmer took a hand in the
business by sweeping his bins clean of
corn and flooding this market with mil
lions of bushels. AS a result the corner
collapsed and prices fell headlong until
September recently sold at SOC. From
then on bulls turned bears and sold short
many bushels.
Now, the corn to fill September con-
tracts Is not in sight. The bad weather
has retarded the maturing of corn crops
until there has been talk that the crops
may not be harvested until hurt by frosts.
Under such conditions ports want to COW
er their contracts, but holders of the
grain ar cloth to sell. At the opening of
trade today everybody turned bulls. Eng
lish markets was advancing strongly.
Cash stuff was leaving this market at a
good premium over September options.
Stocks of contract corn have been rapidly
diminishing. There was no relief for the
shorts other than getting stuff in the pit
at the best figure.
As result almost 5 cents was added
to the price during the morning.
September started 3-8 to l 1-S higher
than yesterdays closing price at So IA
to 54c.. and in leaps and jumps rose to
81 3-4
The old bull crowd was buying and the
shorts had little or nothing offered to
help them in their plight. Bears tried to
comfort each other with the talk that
there were $500 900 bushels Of corn
slowly ripening in the fields. one of the
largest yields in history-but this had no
influence.
At top prices some of the longs let go
in drib lots for profits and prices sidled
off a little.
September. however, closed strong and
excited, 1-Sc higher than yesterday, at
81 cents.
Other markets on change responded to
the furry in corn. Wheat had, a good
bulge. September selling rs high as re,
but closing only 5-sc higher at Il 1-2Q
II 5-sc.
September oats sold at "a 1-2 and closed
16I1 1-Sc higher at "a 3-S@S4 1-2c; Septem-
Der provisions felt the corn strength ma
terially.
Hogs were higher on the prospect of
higher fodder prices and September pork
closed zoe higher at $16.SS; September lard
4Oc up at $10,91 IL. and September ribs
% lie higher at $1012 ~.
