KILLED WRONG GIRL
Nrs. HumeIhagen Shot Down On Street
BY Drunken Man.

y hHkG0 Nidns
Freeport, Ill, June 3.-Edna Humel-
hagen, IS years of age, was shot to
death by Herbert Z. Springer, aged
Is years, of Rockford ILL.,, ,who chased
Mrs. Humelhagen thrGlgh crowd in
Ninth street, thinking GrAa was a Rock
ford woman who had spurned him.
Springer revived from an alcoholic
stupor and raved over the fatal mis-
take.
Mrs. Humelhagen, who had been
married only II months, was wheeling
her 6-months-old baby along Ninth
street. AS she stopped to rearrange
the infant in the cab, Springer stepped
up and muttered a threat that caused
the young mother to retreat a few
PAGES from the baby carriage.
With a hand made unsteady by
drink, Springer drew a revolver and
fired at the woman, missing her. AS
the man paid no attention to the child,
but started towards the mother, she
turned and fed down the street, pur-
sued by Springer.
a second shot missed Mrs. Humel-
hagen as she ran, and, nearly over
come by fright, she tried to enter the
grocery store Of George Atom, calling
for help.
Just as the woman reached the door
of the grocery Springer fired a third
shot and the bullet struck her dead as
she fell into the arms of Grocer Atom
moaning: Save me for my poor baby
Springer was arrested and taken tC
Jail, while scores Of persons who had
seen the quickly executed murder
swarmed about the dead woman
Friends took the baby home to its
father, who says he never heard oi

THE WALRUS ON LAND.
It Is Just About as Helpless as
CanaIboat Would Be.

OandlpOdL NOulQ
As might be expected, a walrus Is
about as helpless on land as a canal
boat. 1t is with no little difficulty and
much hitching and flOundering that he
drags his huge bulk upon sandy shore
even with the boosting he gets from be-
hind by the breakers as they roll in
and dash against him. His hind flip
pers are of little use on land, and on
sand or pebbles, where his front flip
pers do not hold well, the labor of
fioundering forward is so great that he
never stirs beyond the edge of the wa
ter and usually lies with his body half
awash, with the salt spray dashing
over him like torrents of rain. On
solid rock or ice he gets along much
better, and often a herd will spread
several rods back from the water 5
edge,
The females and younger walruSes
have far less development of neck to
incumber them and therefore enjoy
more freedom of motion than the old
males, who actually seem a great bur.
den to themselves. These creatures are
strictly social in their habits and al
ways go in herds, whether travelling
feeding, fighting or resting ashore. In
the days before the slaughter Of all
living creatures became a ruling pas
sion in the breast of man the Pacific
species inhabited the whole of Bering
sea and strait in herds which often
contained thousands and even tens OF
thousands of individuals.

SOUALL HITS

BEARS MAKE FIERCE ONSLAUGHT
PRICES DROP
OPERATORS AFRAID OF FURTHER
PROSECUTION
Fine Imposed on Standard OIL and
Anti-RaiIroad Agitation in
South Bring Flood of
Selling Orders
By Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Aug. 7.-The squall which
broke on the stock market today has been
brewing for several days and there are nov
waiting observers to contend that the seeds
o. the trouble were sown in the Ill advised
market movement to advance prices which
was embarked upon under hamboyant aus
pices late in June.
The market commitments now holding over
from that period, besides the embarrassments
CT the money and capital agitation, whH8
were then perfectly well foreseen, have been
overthrown by the bad effect on sentiment of
the renewed outbreak Of hostility against cor
porations.
The stock market was disposed to view with
mild disquiet the news of the enormous fine
levied on the Standard Oil company by Judge
Lands last Saturday. Every day since then
however the daily news has consumed largo
space with the announcement of new meas
ures or plans in pursuit Of the railroads or
other corporations. The irritation has got on
the nerves of the Wall street operators AMI
the disposition to sell has been increasing and
the decline in prices has gained cumulative
velocity, as is the way with falling bodies, the
outcome being the spasm of liquidation today
No questions that there was large and
important liquidation in progress, although tho
rart played by the bears in forcing prices
lower and in preciptating the liquidation was
also obvious
The bear sentiment has grown cautious after
the considerable decline that has occurred this
week and especially after the small disturb
ance in the early London market today. This
appeared later to have been device on the
shake off a weak following.
The onslaught Of the bears was fierce and
the slump in prices was somewhat ALARMING
-he stocks most affected were those identified
III popular sentiment with the stock market
activity of the interests pointed to In this
gossip, notably Union Pacific and Reading
The copper group was also violently depres-
sed Reports of the conference of state dis
trict attorneys Of the Mississippi valley to
concoct further measures against corporations
the Alabama indictment against the Southern
rot1u and
amongst corporation advisers to devise pro-
tective measures fed the apprehension on the
subject
Great Northern subscribers to new stocks
had an instalment Of s3,O00000 to pay today
Last prices represented rallies on short

such net declines remain as 5b in Union ia.

settled and irregular with not all the rally
