An Odd Hunting Accident.

A remarkable hunting accident took
place in the forest of Rambouillet re-
Gently. The Duchess dues hunts in
the forest twice a week. The Paris
correspondent Of the Newcastle Chroni-
Gle states that on this occasion a stag
which had been put up was in full
dight when suddenly the Duchess de
Luynes appeared riding leisurely lust
in the terrified animals front. Think
ing only Of escape from its pursuers.
the stag instantly sprang to vault over
horse and rider, but caught the duch-
ess. carrying her from the saddle and
falling with her, while the horse bolt
ed. Fortunately the soft turf broke the
fall. and the duchess. on the approach
of the hunt. was able to rise with n
laugh and none the worse. A similar
accident happened to the king of Eng.
land at COmpiegne twenty-five years
ago.

WHEAT SUSTA|NS
A VERY BAD BREAK
May Loses 3 5-S Cents, Ar.
mour Selling Millions
of Bushels.

CHICAGO, Jan. 25. = A sensational
break of 35sc occurred today in the
price of May wheat. Sales of millions
of bushels for May delivery by the
Armour interest, which had been ac-
lively supporting prices, was the prime
factor in changing strong market
into one of utter weakness. There
was a little recovery from the low
point but the close was weak, with
May &c under Saturdays final figures.
Extreme cold weather gave rise to ap-
prehension among traders that dam
age to the growing plant was probable
AS result of these fears, there was
an urgent demand from shorts at the
opening May was 3s @1ac to 1Q1Bc
higher at 91Hc to 92hc. Little wheat
was offered at start and the price rose
to 925ac But at this figure the wheat
began to come out. The selling was
increased by late Liverpool cables,
which showed some weakness, and
also by the large worlds shipments.
The climax was reached on heavy sell
ing by brokers who were said to be
acting for the Armour interest.
In consequence of this change of
front on the part of the leading hold
er. the market started to break. On
the down turn a great many stop-loss
orders came into the pit and hastened
the decline. Enormous quantities Of
wheat were thrown upon the market,
the big long alone being credited with
disposing of anywhere from 100000 TO
100000 bushels. When the pressure
to sell had subsided May was down to
see, drop of 3asc from the high point
Shorts became active buyers on the
decline, and the demand from this
source advanced the price cent. More
wheat came out, however, on the bulge
and another reaction followed. The
close was weak, with May &c under
Saturdays close at 893s @89Rc. The
July delivery was relatively frmer.
After opening 9s@1kc to rs @1Ac
higher at S2M @S35sc, the price ad-
vanced to $3.50, but then declined to
S1hc. loss of 2sc The close was
&c lower at 11a @819sc.

EXPLAINING IN WASHINGTON
He viii Have the Time of His
Life in His Efforts to Secure

St. PauI-Commercial Sta
ton Matter Coming Up.

life, but he is not particularly happy
about it.
Complaints of the service in the busi-
ness district and the general results of
the governments investment in a COM
mercial station have been brought to
the attention of the higher officials
through publications in T g Clio e
and there is some explaining to be
done.
1t is acknowledged that the service
in the business district is not what it
should be and Postmaster McGill, back
ed by Congressman Stevens, proposes
to take the bull by the horns and ask
for more clerks and carriers. Already
large allowances have been made for
the administration of business at the
commercial station and it is intimated
at the department that the station is
rather an expensive investment consid-
ering the returns in service.
The congressman and postmaster saw
the officials of the postoffice depart
ment today and Mr.. McGill dwelt
strongly on the need for a betterment
of the service.
Nothing has been made public as yet
of the report made by the special agent
who was sent to ST Paul to look into
the deal whereby the commercial sta
ton was established, but it is expected
that the matter will be taken up while
the St Paul postmaster is here.

CHICAGO, Jan. 25.-The coroner's

William Sallers, fireman in the the
ater.
James E. Cummings, stage earpen-
ter.
VIM. McMullen, who had charge of
the light that caused the fire.
1t was at once decided by the cor

by the verdict to the grand jury should
be taken into custody tonight. He
therefore at once prepared warrants
for their arrest and called upon the
police department for officers to serve
them
Details of officers were sent for the
men named in the verdict, with orders
to bring them in at once, and If they
could not furnish bail they were to be
taken to the county Jail for the night.

Special Cable to The Globe.
MADRID, Jan. 25.-An automobile IN
which Nina Alix, young New York
girl was looping the loop at circus
last night, left the loop at the apex and
whirled out over the arena. The per-
former fell to the ground, fracturing
her skull and crushing in the ribs OF
her right side, while the automobile
dropped few feet from her and was
shattered.
The circus was crowded and the ac-
cident caused a tremendous panic
Women tainted and were trampled
upon in the rush from the seats. There
was a jam at the exits, in which scores
were injured.
After the first storm of the panic
had passed those of the audience re-
naming within the inclosure started In
to wreck the circus and almost sue
ceeded.
The girl is desperately injured. She
was the first to loop the loop in an au-
tornobile, performing the feat in Lon
don, where it created a sensation.
