CHICAGO.

GllGaQO. industries indicate a sus-
-J tanned high volume of
production and distribution and bank
exchanges again show larger. New de-
mands for finished products add TO the
pressure upon facilities, but prompt de-
liveries cannot be negotiated from lack
of adequate transportation. Price
changes command more attention in a
higher general average, the develop
ments having steadied hides, tirmed no
leather, lumber and wool, and turned
dearer for iron and steel, owing to
greater cost of ore for next season.
Values of foodstuffs in the primary
markets have also been affected, but
these are mainly slightly lower and
harmonic more closely with the album
dant supplies. Retail dealings reflect
seasonable expansion, and, although
the jobbing branches show more quiet,
recorders frequently appear in dry
goods and footwear for Western points.
Interior advices denote sales of mer-
chandise thus far equal to expectations
and demand for heavyweight apparel
improving with colder weather. Mer-
camille collections throughout most of
the tributary region are prompt, and
it is encouraging that defaults make
small total and include none with
heavy liabilities. The conditions pred
icate consumption exceeding all former
proportions and the outlook for bust
ness of increasing aggregate during the
rest of this year is decidedly promis-
ing.
Manufacturing steadily gathers
strength for future operations. Not
withstanding the advancing cost of ma
terials and labor little hesitancy is OBJ
served in entering upon heavy under
takings. This is emphasized in the
number of new enterprises initiated
and additions to existing plants to re-
lieve the present pressure. Iron and
steel producers find the efforts to ac-
emulate surplus stocks beyond them

BANK ROBBED OF $1,000.
Two Men Bind and Gag Clerk of In
stftutfon at Ladd, Ill.

stffut1on at Ladd, III.
The Farmers and Miners Bank at
Ladd., H.. small mining town, was
robbed of $1,000 by two men at 2 o'clock
the other afternoon. Martin Gearing. the
cashier, was away at a funeral, his assist
ant, clerk named James Hurley, was
alone in the bank. Two strangers entered
and asked for some change. While Hur-
ley was making the change one of the
men covered him with a revolver and the
other jumped over the counter and over
powered him. The robbers marched Hur-
ley to back room, where they bound him
hand and foot and gagged him. The
robbers then helped Themselves to cash
and escaped. They left $3.50 in gold, be-
sides a quantity of silver, on the bank
counter. and disturbed little in the vault.
The amount of their booty was about
$1,000, as near as the bank officers were
able to estimate the loss. After the men
left the bank it was twenty minutes be-
fore the alarm was given. The two rob
bers turned up at Peru several hours
later, and were recognized. An attempt
was made to arrest them, but they held
back the town officials with drawn revol-
Vers, stole a horse and buggy from the
street, and drove out of town on
gallop.

good business on spring account; a con-
tinued scarcity of labor, and record
breaking outputs of iron and steel, are
pre-eminent features of the week.
Weather conditions, except in por-

favorable; retail trade has been active,
business from jobbers has been larger
than ordinary, and wholesalers report
heavy orders booked for spring deliv-

complaints of slow deliveries on orders
are almost universal, cotton, dry goods,
lumber, coal and iron and steel dealers
all complaining. Car congestion ex-
plains some of this, and with present
prices of grain, accounts for slow

DEALS IN FUTURES UPHELD.

Decision i'm CIeage Case by Federal
Court at st. Paul.
The United States Circuit Court of APP
peals at st. Paul upheld the validity of
contracts for the purchase and sale of
grain for future delivery, as practiced by
the Chicago Board of Trade and the Mer-
chants Exchange of st. Louis.
The case is that of Thomas A. Cleage.
Jr., appellee, against w. H. Laidley and
others. Cleage dealt in about 100000
bushels of grain, and less than per cent
of it was delivered. The brokers to whom
he became indebted filed a creditors petit
ton in bankruptcy, which was assaulted on
the ground that the creditors claims were
grounded upon wager agreements and
therefore were void.
The court holds that the evidence did
not disclose a purpose to settle the con-
tracts by the payment of the difference
between the contract prices and the mar
ket prices at the time of delivery, and
did not make the transactions wagers and

Armed Men Take Money from Pas
sengers Wabash Train.
Five masked bandits boarded the Wa
bash express train near Peru, Ind. and
escaped after rObbing many passengers.
The highwaymen signaled the train to
stop with a lantern covered with a red
rag. When the train was stopped the
bandits forced the engineer TO cut the
locomotive away from the train. They
then boarded a coach filled with immi-
grants and after robbing most of them
tried to enter one of the other cars. Shots
Were heard and the bandits, fearing an
attack left the car hastily. Hurrying to
a crossing, where they had tied their
horses, the bandits mounted and rode
away in different directions. The amount
secured by the robbers is not known.

SINKS TO DEATH IN GRAIN.
Man Perishes in Pit Continuing
1900 Bushels.


Patrick Dolan, foreman of grain hand
lers in the elevator of the William Baird
Company, Brooklyn, n. Y, fell into a
pit containing 5000 bushels of grain. The
little kernels gripped his feet, his ankles
and his legs and drew him down with a
power that was irresistible. Dolan called
for help and Petro Amazio. a fellow
worker, went to his assistance. He threw
a rope to Dolan, which the latter seized
so desperately that he drew Amazio into
the pit. Other workmen heard the out
cries, but both men had disappeared
when they reached the scene. A rush
was made for the chutes through which
the grain is unloaded, and, christening
the covers, the men let the wheat run into
the street. Soon Amazio shot down the
chute and Dolan followed. The latter
was dead, having been smothered. but
Amazio was still alive and will recover.

MES of Negro Troops.
President Roosevelt has dismissed from
the army in disgrace every man belonging
to Companies 3, G. and d of the Twenty
fifth United States infantry, colored. At
the same time he ordered an investiga-
ton, which may lead to the court martial
of Col. W. L. Pitcher of the Twenty-sev-
enth infantry for casting a slur upon
negro troops. This action, unprecedented
in the history of the army, is the result
of the disgraceful affair at Brownsville,
Texas on the night of Aug. 13 last, when
some drunken soldiers of the battalion
fired into the residences of citizens, kill
ing one man and seriously wounding an
other. In the investigation which follow
ed all the soldiers of the battalion united
in shielding their guilty companions and
refused to reveal their names. Brig. Gen.
e. ii. Darlington, inspector general of the
army, recommended the dismissal of all
the men in the battalion.

ChicagOan Asks Court to Aid Him in
Recovering Daughter.

John Adam, who said his home was in

Salem, Mass. for a warrant for the ar
rest of several members of a band of
gypsies in winter quarters at South Sa-
lem on the charge of having abducted his
daughter Rosie, 10 years old, a year ago.
Adam told the police that he was 4 Rus

cage about year ago his daughter sud
denly disappeared. Being convinced that
she had been carried off by gypsies, Adam
decided to search for her by joining the
gypsies. He and his wife, therefore, be-
came attached to a tribe which stopped
in Somerville recently and a week ago
