GREAT WEALTH OF THE POPE
The Yearly Income Estimated at
Millions of Dollars.

Rome, July 22=That the pope was
enormously wealthy is undisputed. No
statement of his receipts is given out at
the vatican, but it is easy to estimate
from certain known facts and gain a
fairly accurate idea of the pontitical
budget during the holy year. Besides
the pope himself probably not more
than two men know the exact amount
of the papal income. One of these is
Cardinal Rampolla, the papal secretary
of state, and the other Cardinal Mocen-
nj. who has the actual handling of the
money.
Cardinal Mocenni is one of the most
popular cardinals in the curia- He has
lived in Rome for many years and is In
great favor with the populace of the
city. The amount of money which he
handles for the pope in ordinary years
is enormous. but in 190O-holy year-the
papaI receipts were increased fully ia
million dollars. and the total amount
which passed through Cardinal Mocen-
mis- hands was not far from Az million
dollars. The greater part of this enor-
nous income is Peters pence"
In ordinary years this amounts to
about l million dollars. but the greatly
increased interest in the church in holy
year was responsible for great in
crease in the total amount of offerings
to this fund. Approximately the pOpe'S
income in 1900 was as follows:
Income from real estate in Italy
Income anq eo from sums invested in Sc i''O0O
Special donations and gifts.......... 100000
Peters pence OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. z,5dJ,e 90
Total Observation-Disclosures 900
The expense account of the holy father
does not nearly approach this sum. 1t
consists principally of salaries of car
dinals ENJOYS attendants and house
hold expenses, divided somewhat as fol-
lows:
Salaries of cardinals ard envoys$ 100000

BODY FLOATING IN RIVER
Indications Man Had Been Knocked
on the Head and Thrown
Into Water.

SIOUX CITY. Ia, June 10.-(special Tele-
gram.)-The body Of Edward B. Corbett, a
member of Columbia Typographical union
Of Washington, d. c., and formerly of St.
Louis and of Hot Springs, Ark, was found
floating in the Missouri river today. Two
scalp wounds in the back of the head indi-
cate he had received a blow previous to
falling in the water. The body hoated
down the Floyd river into the Missouri and
had been In the water about five days. DR..
F. j. Murphy, who performed the autopsy,
was of the opinion the man was uncon-
scous when he had fallen into the water,
The condition of the tissues OF the scalp
showed he had bled considerably before
death. The supposition Is he was struck
in the head by assaiants and thrown into
the river from some bridge. The coroner s
inquest held this afternoon over the body
could not determine which He had letters
from the two sisters and a brother in Chi
cago and working card from Columbia
Typographical union at Washington The
union has been informed of the mans
death and the body is awaiting its order.

FORTUNES ARE WIPED OUT
Sends stocks to Panic
Prices.

NEW YORK, June 10.-Prices of stocks
were smashed under an avalanche of liqui-
dating sales, When the market opened
up blocks Of 5000 shares of stocks were
thrown upon the market and let go on the
running sales, showing wide fractional
variations for simultaneous quotations
The average were over a point. The sales
come from all quarters and the reason was
attributed to serious food news at ST. Louis
and the political situation in England
There was large short interest, evidently,
which took advantage OF the opening break
to cover and powerful interests executed
supporting orders in the meantime
There was a recovery which carried some
leading stocks back to or above last night.
but the higher prices caused a falling on
in the buying and were taken advantage
OF for renewed sales to liquidate, so that
prices were lower than before II o'clock
There was a rally again a little later, but
the market continued excited and very
nervous.
Among the stocks which sold AT n lower
price than was reached even on May D,
1901, were Amalgamated, American Sugar,
Baltimore & Ohio, Brooklyn Transit, Con-
solidated Gas, New York Central and Penn
sylvania, United States Steel, common ana
preferred, reached the lowest figures OF
their history except for the prices touched
momentarily on May 9, 1901.
The market made a rally shortly after
12 o'clock and sentiment became more
cheerful.

styled the Highest Glass Circus in the
World" has completed all arrangements
for it's exhibition in Council Bluffs Mon
day, June 22.
The Wallace Show has been reorganized
this year, and scores of new novelties and
features will be seen for the first time in
this country under the Wallace tents this
season.
In past seasons the Wallace Show has
been so large that It was the equal of
any similar enterprise in magnitude, and
this season It will be even more be~ilder-
ing for the laymen. for 1t has been very
materially increased.
Eleven more cars have been added to the
Wallace trains AS these cars are of double
length and capacity this is an increase
of twenty-five ordinary freight cars. Sew
eral exclusively new and original features
have been added and though the Wallace
Show has always presented a frst-class
performance, it promises to present an un-
usually attractive program.

YOUNG GIRL BROWNS HERSELF
Supposed to Have Been Fearful of
RePrOof for Something She
Had Done.

BATTLE CREEK, Neb., June 1o-(spe-
cial Telegram. bertha Schroeder, the 12-
year-old daughter of Carl Schroeder, living
six miles northwest OF Battle Creek, near
the Elkhorn river, has been boarding here
In town and attending the German Luth-
eran school. The teacher, Prof. Doering,
discovered that she had an unusually large
amount of money. When questioned as to
where she secured II, the girl told 80 many
stories that the professor threatened TO
report the matter to her parents. That
frightened the girl and she ran away from
school, went to her boarding place, took
her clothing and went home. After reach
inG home she was sent to the field with
lunch for her father. While there she saw
parties coming to report the matter to her
father. She asked permission to go to the
river nearby, where she went with her
little dog. After reporting the matter to
Mr.. Schroeder, the girls return was waited
for. When she did not come search was
made for her. She and the dog were
traced to the waters edge, where the dog
was found and part of the girls clothing,
but she had disappeared and has not been
found yet. 1t is supposed she drowned
herself. The river is being dragged for
her body, but as it is very high now there
is very little hope Of finding it.
