Madame Schumann- Heink is one of
the very few artists of great reputa-
ton whose name is built upon such a
solid rock of worth that each hearing
even increases admiration, not for the
splendid voice alone. though fine voices
are very rare, but for the incompatible
interpretative art which causes every
phrase to stand forth musical cameo,
luminous with feeling.

Dumped Into Subway from
Burning Trolley Car.

New York, July 13.-Fifteen persons
have been hurt by falling into the sub
way excavation at Lenox avenue and
125th street, after jumping from a burn
ing trolley car on which they had a
thrilling ride for several blocks. while
the motorman was making desperate
efforts to reach a fire engine house.
The car was flied with about eighty
passengers, mostly women and children.
When they discovered the fire many
tried to jump. but the motornan put on
the full power. He had not gone two
blocks before the car was envelOped in
flames. The conductor saw that there
was danger of burning the whole car
load of passengers and rang the bell
The car cams to a stop right over the
excavations for the subway. The pas
sengers piled off on top of one another.
The planking over the hole collapsed
and about 25 persons were carried down.
Those on the bottom were severely
bruised but only one was in serious
condition.

Number of Stocks Reach Lowest
Point in Years.
Santa Fe and Rock Island Made
Heavy Declines.
ONSLAUGHT OF BEARS
Carried Steel Securities to Low.
est Point
Ever Reached i'm the History of
the Corporation.

New York, July 13.-Increased weak
ness was shown by the stock market in
today's early dealings and q number of
issues, including some of the standard
class, touched the lowest price IN years.
The opening was fairly steady with In
dications of good support but values
soon receded under the vigorous on
slaughts of the bears, together with
renewal of last weeks liquidation. Lon
don reported a weak and hesitating
market for Americans.
Stocks that made heavy declines in
the first hour included Pennsylvania,
New York Central, Northwestern, Atch-
ison, Rock Island, st. Paul, Illinois Gem
trail, Wabash. The fractions, Metropoli-
tan, Manhattan and Brooklyn Rapid
Transit and Amalgamated copper.
The bonds of the U. S. Steel corpora
tion went to the lowest point in their
history. On railroads prices were in SYM
pathy with the regular market. Business
was fairly large in volume and stop loss
orders came out. Commission houses
with middle western connections were
prominent in the selling movement
Boston sold also. Aside from the feeling
of pessimism there was no news to ac-
count for the weakness of the market
and such encouragement as should have
resulted from last weeks favorable crop
news was entirely ignored.
The end of the first hour brought a
partial recovery in some issues and the
volume of trading diminished material
ly but the tone of the list continued fe-
verish and unsettled.
A partial rally in the second hour gave
way to another selling movement in the
course of which prices fell to a lower
level than at the opening.
B. & o., Reading and Southern Pa
cific were the especial objects of inter
est. New York Central. St. Paul, Illi-
nois Central and Consolidated Gas ell
made further declines. To show the ex-
treme senSitiveneSs of the market,
Lackawanna jumped points between
sales of 100 share lots. The second de-
cline was followed by another rally just
before noon.

RANCHMEN FREE.
Dewey, Mcbride and Wilson
Left Jail Today.

Chauncey Dewey, w. T. Mcbride and
Clyde Wilson left the Shawnee county
jail shortly after noon today. free men,
though under bond of $4,000 each to
appear for trial at the required time.
They will all go from Topeka to Eur
eka Lake, Manhattan, where they will
stay for several weeks. Mcbride and
Wilson were the first to leave the jail.
Dewey did not finish packing up his
things until about o'clock this after
noon. When asked as to his plans for
the future. Dewey said: I'VE havS no
definite plans. We are going up to the
lake for awhile, but after that our plans
are uncertain. The bond was approved
by Sheriff Mccullough, and we are at
liberty to go where we please"
1t was rumored this morning that the
bond would possibly not be approved by
the sheriff for the reason that it did not
contain the name of any resident of
Cheyenne county In case it became
necessary to prosecute on the bond. it
was claimed by some attorneys, it
would be useful to the authorities TO
have one man on the bond a resident of
Cheyenne county. But evidently this
point was either overlooked by the sher-
iff. or did not carry much weight with
him.
The bondsmen are John r. Mulvane
and Joab Mulvane. of Topeka, and
Chauncey Dewey, ST., of Illinois.

WAN THEM
Fort LeavenwOrth Soldiers
After Two Negroes.

Leavenworth. Kas.. July 13.-United
States soldiers attempted to lynch
Everidge Williams and Walter Brown,
both negroes, last night. For over an
hour the entire police department was
kept busy quelling the trouble. Will
liams and Brown had engaged in row
with soldiers at Ninth and kickapoo
streets and one of them fired a number
of shots at a soldier The soldiers then
congregated in great numbers. A
hasty consulta ton followed, and it was
decided to lynch the two negroes if
they could be found With this deter
mination about twenty-five soldiers and
a number OF citizens went to the homes
Of Williams and Brown, near the old
fair grounds, and surrounded both
houses. Ropes had been secured and
everything was in readiness for
lynching. Policemen with Winchesters
and revolvers appeared on the scene.
and by carefully maneuvering they
succeeded in getting Brown and Will
liams away to the police station. A
number of soldiers with revolvers were
arrested. but were later released.
The affair caused considerable excite
ment, and it was not long until stories
of killing by the score were in circula-
ton.
