HOW CAUSED a HORSE TO RUN
AWAY AND THEN RAN AWAY NY
SELF
My first business after leaving the
wagon next morning was to regain
possession OF the dead mans Rag,
which | was disappointed to lind coZ,-
tanned nothing more important than a
false beard. | then took the train to
London, and after hurriedly changing
my clothes at my chambers, / made
my way 10 No. 50, Fassett Square, Dals-
ton, the house where the dynamite
was concealed.
AS turned The corner of the square,
a brewers dray drew up at No. Ga, and
man wearing a red cap and an apron
OF brown sacking jumped down and
Knocked at the door Ii was opened by
another man at the moment | was
passing. Both looked curiouSly at me,
and then the driver of the dray said,
in what thought was an unnecessarily
loud voice
i've called for the empty barrel, and
to know if you have any orders for
our firm"

have guessed instinctively that he was
Councillor Number Two, and that the
asking for orders" and mention of
calling for the empty barrel" was
mere blind with which to deceive the
casual passer-by. The man inside the
house was, | had little doubt, Council
Tor Number Three. How he had eff
fected an entrance i did not know,
but this driving up in open daylight of
brewers van in which TO take away
what was apparently an empty barrel
was piece of bluff" which, if only
by virtue of its very impudence. might
well have been carried through TO a
successful issue.
"Oh, yes. that1l be all right" said
the man who had opened the door.
You'd better come down into the Gel
lar and fetch it"
No one happened just then TO be ap-
preaching, so the instant the door was
closed upon this precious pair OF
scoundrels. | struck the horse that was
harnessed To the dray under the belly
with my stick, making at the same
time that peculiar cluckinS sound
which signifies in the language cur
rent between horse and man Go on"
AS had Intended, the animal plunged,
and then started off down the square,
the heavy van jolting behind him
noisily The sound must have reached
the men inside the house, for the dour
was opened again hurriedly. and the
two OF them ran out into the road

The policeman who had been left In
charge. The unfortunate man had
been stabbed to the heart. but by whom
there was no evidence to show, but
that n struggle had taken place was
clear from the fact that a revolver, one
chamber OF which had been discharged.
and which has been identified as HE
properly. was found lying beside him.
IL is. however. supposed that the crime
was committed by some member. or
members, of the gang by whom the dy-
Mantle had been concealed on the
premises, and that they had revisited
the house. not knowing that the police
lad left anyone in charge"
And in the stop Press" space in
the paper, which is devoted TO late
news. found the following-to me-
extremely significant announcement: -
THE police refuse to give any par
ticulars in regard to the sensational
murder of a policeman at Fasse.t
Square, Dalston. Our representative.
however. succeeded this afternoon in
obtaining short interview with the
wife of the murdered man, who has
informed him of p curious circumstance
in connection with the case. This is
that an empty beer barrel, wfHch was
lying in the cellar where the body was
found. had been very carefully taken
to pieces. and this she is confident was
not done by her husband, who she as
sured our representative had no tools
on the premises by which the work
could have been accomplished"
This is bad news!' said to my
self as | laid down the paper. THE
scoupdrels have not only got clean
away. but they have evidently accom-
plished the object of their visit. and
succeeded in taking the dynamite with
them. 1t makes me feel very I'M
comfortable about the whole business;
although even if had gone down to
the cellar | should not have been in
time TO save the poor fellows life; and
after all, If the police don't take proper
steps to guard premises which they
are in charge of, it's their affair. not
mine.
But now that know the scoundrels
have got possession OF the dynamite
and that they intend to use 1t in blow
ing up Lord Cranthorpe's house,
will make it my business to see that
they don't do anything of the sort;

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.
Future Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO, Dec. S.--Wheat at the opening
was weak. May being unchanged to Ao lower
at 81 1OA to 81 10n. One influence tending to
create bearish sentiment was continued liberal
receipts in the Northwest Another factor was
a report OF excellent harvest weather in Ar
gentina. The effect Of yesterdays heavy nQui-
dation was In evidence early in the day and
with little support the market became still
weaker. Shorts covered freely on the slump
sold OF. to 81 co.'s The sensational break in
Wall street is said to have induced much sell
ing OF wheat here Toward the middle CT the
day. however the wheat market rallied sharp
" on liberal purchases by a leader OF the
longs. The early loss quickly regained
and prices showed good gains over Initial
quotations. On excellent general demand
the market held strong throughout the re-
mainder of the session. An unconhrmed report
of large sales OF -four at Minneap polls was re-
sponsible for much Of the late bullishness.
Another factor was the strength OF wheat at
st. Louis. Shortly before the close May
reached 81 l1Ss. the highest point of the day.
Final quotations were at 81 11A
Trading in corn was on a fairly generous
scale and the market ruled firm the entire
day May opened a shade TO hd&c higher
at 443sc to 44Ac, sold between AL C and AM a
44%c and closed at 4415c.
Decreased receipts had strengthening in
iuence in the oats market. May opened un-
changed at 305sc. sold between 30Ac and 30Ihc
and closed at 3015c.
Liquidation OF scattered holdings caused
weakness in provisions. At the close May pork
was off 1061215c at $12 77l5q12 so. Lard was
down 21sc at 81 05. Ribs showed a loss of
2hd5c.
