Ex-senator George G. Vest died at biz

after long illness. With the death of Sen
ator Vest that rapidly thinning group OF
older men who were great statesmen as we'll
as wise politicians loses one OF It's ablest
members, Missouri loses one of its most fa.

the Senate was notably high one. Above
the little tricks of craftsmanship, vigorous,
aggressive, he was a power In that body dur.
ing his long term Of service in it. He was
vigilant in his defense OF what he believed

knowledge of political history, of national

and not after the candidates for President
and Vice President. In the event of such
declaration upon the part of any board OF
supervisors, it is claimed, 1t would not only
be perfectly proper, but entirely natural, for
one of the candidates for elector TO 20 into
the lower court and ask for mandamus TO
compel the board to print the ballot in &C.
cordance with the instructions issued by the
Attorney General
This, it is urged, would bring the whole
question up and decision would be given
without delay. This decision, of course,
would be at once taken by the losing side
TO the Court OF Appeals, where the matter
would be finally decided one way or the
other and stop would be put TO all contro
Versy and uncertainty about it.. Such de-
cslon from the Court Of Appeals, the high.
est authority in the State, would stand not
only here, but, II is claimed, would not be
set aside by Republican Congress even If
there should be contest over the matter.

Remarkable Scene on Chi
cagO Change Due to Sud
den Drop in Price Of Wheat
BROKERS ARE EXCITED
Reversal of Market Occurs
Within Few Minutes, Com
pletely UpSetting Traders
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO. Aug. 1S.-A slaughter OF
the innocents took place in the wheat
pit at the opening to-day when several
million bushels went overheard in a
few seconds. In a speculative way the
bottom fell out of the market for five
minutes and small fortunes were lost
while the brokers desperately tried to
execute selling orders. In ten seconds
the prices made the following savage
break from the closing prices Of yester-
day:
September from 81 O61k to 81 O61l. De-
cember from 81 09 to 81 0655, May from
81 Ills to 81 0Sh.
Then the thing was reversed. The
whole list of futures was caught by
fresh buying wave and swept higher
with a speed that made the bull mar
kets of previous days seem like slow
affairs. Here is the record of ths rally
that lasted less than ten minutes:
September, 81 O6A to 81 09; December.
81 O61z to 81 092z May 81 0Sh TO 81 II.
The air was full Of reasons for the
phenomenal double action in prices
as soon as it was over There was
frost in Manitoba or North Dakota as
predicted. Minneapolis was 2 cents
lower on the curb two minutes before
the opening and the traders jumped
to the conclusion that there was better
crop news With the whole trade
keyed to a high pitch on the buying
side and thousands of people loaded
with lines on the cents advance OF
yesterday was all that was needed for
a few frightened holders to precipi-
tate the panic. Thousands of orders to
sell were never filled until the market
righted itself and went up further,
then 1t went down.
Hundreds Of nervous wheat owners
had hardly got rid of their grain when
it was reported in a telegram from
Winnipeg sent by a we'll known crop
examiner that the rust that had ruin
ed the crops Of Minnesota and the Da-
kotas was at work in the British
Northwest and threatened that part OF
the country with a similar calamity.
One house traded in 5000. 600 bush
els of grain for its customers yester-
day and other large houses from
100000 to 1 900. 600 bushels.

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 1S.-It be-

Russia will meet the views of the
United States and Great Britain re-
garding foodstuffs as c6ntraband of
war, by agreeing that foodstuffs bound
to belligerents unblockaded ports
and consigned to private firms or in
dividuals, when the ships papers leave
no room for suspicion, will not be re-
garded as contraband' Of war. The sub
ject is now under consideration.

to be desirous of adjusting the question
of the -four on board the Arabia confis-
Gated by the Vladivostok prize court,

Of the court makes it difficult to ad-
just it automatically, and it is sug-
gested that the case should be appealed

class Japanese cruisers and several
torpedo-boats, while there were three
other cruisers of the Matshushima
type on their right. The Russian fire
was most effective, causing an out

all missed and one torpedo-boat was

FIGHT
WITH OFFICERS

NEW YORK, Aug. 1s.-Two hun
dred negroes attacked Policeman
Frank Lawless this afternoon, dragged
him from the porch of his house, tore
his uniform from his body, trampled
upon him and doubtless would have
killed him but for the arrival of citi-
zen help. While the Fire Department
summoned by mistake instead Of the
reserves from the ADMINISTERED sta
ton, was fighting fiercely for an en-
trance to the street through the mob
Policeman James lyman and Gus Ber-
ner stood over the body of the uncon-
scious Lawless, and, with revoIvers
held the infur1ated negroes at bay.
When the reserves finally arrived
and joined the firemen they were op-
posed by fully 5000 negroes. In their
efforts to disperse the crowd men and
women were moved down under ter
rife onslaught, fire axes, short ladders
revolvers and clubs being used. The
mob fought back with great ,despera-
tion and the battle continued for an
hour before the streets were cleared.
