IN PERIL OF HIS LIFE.
Thrilling Rescue Of Boy from Preelplee
900 Feet Above the Sea.

Ihriiitn1 rescue OF Boy from Preelplce

Chicago, Aug, s.--A dispatch to the

that wireless message from Avalon.
Catalina island, reports the rescue
OF irving Spalding. aged fifteen, a son
Of A. +. Spalding, OF Springfield, H.,
from precipice 600 feet above the
sea. where he had spent the day In
peril Of his life.
The youth disappeared from the no.
tel early in the morning. He went
to explore the island and climbed
the sheer face OF the cliff. $50 feet
high, as far as he could go, and got
within hundred feet of the top.
Spalding found II impossible to get
down. and shouted for help, but fail.
cd to make any one hear. He could
not sit down and the slightest mlsstep
would have sent him to Instant death
on the rocks below. His father. as
night was approaching, organized a
searching party
After an hours search they located
the boy, weak with fear The prob.
lem OF how TO rescue him was solved
at last by the discovery OF path
leading Fifty feet down from the top.
A rope was lowered to the youta
and he was drawn safely to the top
Of the cliff.
Aside from the nervous shock, weak.
ness, hunger and terror, the boy Is
all right.

A lower price for steel bars was the
most significant event of the week in the
iron and steel industry. 1t came as
surprise, because at the recent meeting of
the leading interests 1t was agreed that
no reduction would be made and the
trade Is now waiting for better terms in
other departments. Much pending bust
ness will be deferred If there is a pros

Primary dry goods markets have made
further progress, recent reductions in
prices bringing out good volume of con-

west and south, but there is still much
Groom for improvement. Many plants are
now resuming operations and producers
are purchasing leather more freely.
Business in hides is moderate, but there
is no weakness.
