DOES NOT PROHIBIT
HUNTING ON SUNDAY
Object in View. Commits
sioner Says.

Much discussion has been arouse
OF late as TO whether there is a state
law prohibiting hunting on Sunday
An appeal to John y. Wheeler. state
game commissioner. brought the fol
lowing reply:
Il beg to advise you thai there is
nothing in the game Jaw or the Illinois
statutes, prohibiting hunting on Sun,
day. | do not know of any legislation
now on our books that deals with Sun
day hunting. certainly it is not against
the law TO do so. SO far as this office
has been advised.
The legislature Will probably adopt
. bill which will positively require j
hunters license for shooting rabbits
Game Warden ]. q. Smith. cne of the
central Illinois deputies. called on the
game commissioner in Springfield re
Gently to consult with him concerning
the Interpretation of the law governing
this case. The idea expressed by the
com missioner is in effect that the law
at present requires a license. There
is. however, n popular misapprehen'
sion TO the contrary, due to the OBJ
scure phraseology of the law.
A bin is at present in the hands OF
a committee. which states explicitly
that rabbits cannot be killed without
a license This will destroy any pos
sibility of misinterpretation, and viii
do away with the misunderstanding
now prevalent.

Davenport BowIers Lose.

The Davenport bowlers are without
question a fast lot OF players upon
their own alleys. but when they get
away from home. stage fright or some
other malady appears TO overcome
them and they allow their competi-
tors To- carry off all the honors. This
happened at Maquoketa recently and
also at Clinton Sunday. In an exhibit
ton game at Clinton Al Lau made the
remarkable score of 2i0 in one game.
but the highest score made by him in
the championship series was ISL. Two
series were played at Clinton, one in

HEAVY SLUMP IN PRICES
PANICkY CONDITIONS CAUSE A
SHARP DECLINE ON THE NEW
YORK STOCK EXCHANGE.

New York, May 1.-PanieRy con-
ditions developed on the Stock Ex-
change in the second hour of the ses-
sion. USgent liquidation, apparently
forced in character, threw an enormous
volume of stocks on the market asd
the buying demand seemed paralyZed.
Prices crumbled rapidly and as q con-
sequence st. Paul slumped 51a IN wide
intervals between sales Union Pa
cific was carried down 3B, United
States Steel preferred 3, New York
Central 8, Reading 35s, Atlantic Coast
Line 72, Louisville and Nashville 3A,
Northwestern preferred 9A, Buffalo,
Rochester and Pittsburg 11A, Tennes-
see Coal 5A, Metropolitan Securities
As, Pressed Steel Car and Kansas and
Texas preferred 4.
The break in prices was accom-
panied by various rumors and reports,
some of them rejecting upon the sol
vency of institutions and individuals.
There was tremendously heavy selling
from such out of town points as Phil
adelphia, Pittsburg, Chicago and Bos-
ton. The two cities first named un-
loaded enormous quantities of Steel
stocks. The decline was accelerated
by the heavy short selling of cliques
and by room traders generally. Stop
loss orders were uncovered in all the
active stocks and as usual ON All occa-
sion of this sort many weakly mar
gined accounts were sold out at great
sacrifice.
A canvass among the brokers in the
financial district elected no real rea.
sons for the sharp decline, although it
has been the opinion of the banking
element for some weeks past that
prices were beyond reason. Trading
was SO heavy and excited that the
ticker was fifteen minutes behind the
regular time in reporting closing quo
tations.

Number of Persons Injured in Riotlng
at Chicago.

Chicago, May disturbances In
the teamsters' strike began early In
the day. The trouble started near the
Eighteenth street barns of the EN-
ployers' Teaming company.
Inor Mulcahy, plumber, was at
tackled by a nonunion colored teamster
and cut with razor about the face
and neck Mulcahy was taken to the
Peoples hospital. His assailant es-
capped. Mulcahy was walking by the
barns on the way to his place OF busi-
ness when persons in a crowd about
the barns, it is declared, began to jeer
the nonunion colored teamsters. The
nonunionists resentfully rushed into
the crowd. Before the police could in
terfere Mulcahy, who CHANGED TO be
nearest the negroes, had been feartuliy
slashed. Following the outbreak LOO
negroes employed as nonunion team
sters left the stables to begin service
tor the J. V. Farwell company.
Two police patrol wagons and l0o
policemen guarded the negroes.
Two Boys Painfully Hurt.
Two boys were victims of the dis
order growing out of the strike. Both
were painfully but not fatally hurt.
Victor Grimes, aged fifteen years,
messenger for trade paper, was as
saulted by three boys, one OF whom
stabbed him in the chest. Grimes had
refused to obey orders of the bogs not
to deliver any more packages.
James Mcnamara, aged seventeen
years, wagon boy. who had been en-
ploy ed by Marshall Field & Co., was

Witnesses Examined Regarding Ham,
mer Used by Murderer.

Mankato, Mimi. May LENA
Weideman, a woman about fifty-hye
years of age, housekeeper for Fred
erick Crone of New Ulm. was on the
stand during the morning in the trial
of DR.. George r. Koch, charged with
the murder of DIR. l.. A. Gebhardt, and
testified that between 9 and $3.50 on
the night of the murder she was stand
ing on porch belonging to her apart
ments which gave her view OF the
interior of DR.. Kochs office. There
was no light. Suddenly a light ap-
peared in the room and she saw DR..
Koch there. He stopped down and,
with his right hand. took something
from the wall and apparently put 1t In
his pocket. He was there short time
when the light was extinguished.
Mrs. Kasz, the woman who cleaned
DR.. Koch's office. testified that a ham
mer hung on the wall In the office,
which she had used, but that 1t was not
the hammer shown her In court. She
had not testified at the former trial.
