AFRAID OF HOODOO
Thirteen Couples Fail to Marry
on Steamer.

CHICAGO, Sept. 14.-'Was it BASH
fulness or the thirteen hScdoo that
was responsible?"
This is what the 1-embers of Sedg-
wick court, No. 33, United Order of
Foresters, are asking themselves. The
question grew out of novel expert
ment made by the court yesterday
during it's excursion to South Haven
on the Eastland.
The members of the court had hoped
to witness the marriage of thirteen
young couples in midlake and had
made preparations accordingly. So
when they reached the docks of the
steamship line at the Wells street
bridge they had several bushels of rice
and several dozen pairs OF Ola SHOES
secreted about them. A justice of the
peace was on hand and everything
was in readiness for the marriages
as soon as the steamer reached mid
lake.
But the prospective brides and
grooms failed to appear. Before the
steamer cast off the members OF the
court made still hunt for the young
people they had expected would avail
themselves of the opportunity the
court had offered in advertising it
would pay the wedding expenses of
thirteen couples if they would consent
to have the marriage ceremony per-
formed on board the Eastland.
One of the Foresters approached a
young couple on the upper deck.
do you want to get married." he
asked.
"Sir!" the young woman began as
she turned scarlet.
Her escort sprang to his feet and the
Forester made a dive down the COM
panionway.
Other members of the court were
equally unsuccessful. One couple,
indeed. consented to have the marriage
ceremony performed on board the
Eastland, but they had already an
nounced their intention to do so.
They were Walter r. Ransom and
Miss Matilda Peterson, of Evanston.
When the search for the twelve
other couples was given up the mem

There was some diversity of opinion
among the Minneapolis grain men as
TO the effect of the storms in the
Northwest upon the wheat market.
The most immediate affect was seen
In the September option. which was
days close to 8SH cents yesterday.
The reason for this is apparent Trad
ers who have sold wheat for Septem-

able to fill their contracts with wheat
received here, see very little hope of
being able to do so now, as threshing
Will necessarily be delayed until the
end of this week and some say until

One prominent firm of brokers adj
V1sed its customers to make their
trades with the expectation of Deem
Der wheat selling at $1.25. 1t was
pointed out, however, that the fact
that the weather was cold was in
favor Of the wheat and that If cool
weather with good drying winds fol-
lowed the rain there would not be
much damage done beyond lowering
the grade of the wheat in shock
Various estimates were made as to the
proportion of the crop that would be
thus affected.
In South Dakota, it is said, there is
not more than 8 per cent of the thresh-
ing to be done. In North Dakota and
Northern Minnesota 1t was thought
there was from one-third to a half of
the crop in the fields. In many points
In North Dakota, according to Ed
wards, Wood & Co.'s advices, the rains
have been accompanied by winds of
high velocity which have torn the
shocks apart, and the sheaves are
thoroughly water soaked.
No very appreciable effect was seen
In the trading for wheat to be deliver
ed In December and May, the price of
the former being advanced less than
three quarters of cent and the lat
ter little more than Il -cent.
While the question of immediate
supplies is the important factor in
September wheat, the lack of export
trade and the large shipments from
Russia and the Danube exert a potent
influence upon the later months.
Should good export demand develop
AS is confidently expected will be
the case-the general opinion is that
December wheat will be just as high
as September is now, If not higher.

ANTI NEGRO MOVE
Carmack Viii Offer Bill to Re.
peal Fifteenth Amendment.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Sept. 14.-Fron
the standpoint of Southern interest the
forthcoming session of congress prob
ably will be the most memorable since
the Louisiana returning board discus
sion for determining the Tilden-Hayes
election contest, or since the wildly
remembered tilt in the senate between
tactful and resourceful Lamar, of Mis-
sissippi, and the eloquent Conkling, of
New York.
Edward w. Carmack, the Junior rep
resentative of Tennessee, in the upper
branch of the national congress, is to
be the creator and forceful leader of
this newborn interest in congression-
al proceedings.
In the next congress this young ex-
ponent of Southern Democracy will in
troduce bill in the senate for the re-
peal of the fifteenth amendment of the
federal constitution, which provides
that there shall be no discrimination
against a citizens OF the United States
because of color, religion, or previous
condition of servitude. In word, Sen
ator Carmack would contribute toward
the permanent solution of the veXing
negro question as 1t is presented to the
Southern states by eliminating the en-
franchised negroes as a political factor.
This bill of Senator Carmack's will be
supported by every Southern repre-
sentative in congress and not few
members from those sections of the
Union where the colored man Is treat
ed more as an incident than a prob
lem to be dealt with as legislative
thought would deal with a serious and
nenacing complication.
Senator Carmack will not introduce
his bill In the hope of getting 1t en-
acted into the federal statutes any time
soon, for he suspects that defeat will
meet such efforts for years to come,
but for the purpose of precipitating
discussion. Senator Carmack fayors

ultimate deportation Of the negro from
this country. Where he shall be sent

question for the wise consideration OF

count of the failure of the Turkish au-

Therefore, the Bulgarian government

the massacres and devastation and to
stop the mobilization of the Turkish

forced to take such measures as she
may deem necessary.
