STORM WAS
MOST FRIGHTFUL.

About one O'Clock Wedneday
frightful electric storm swept over this
section and much damage was done.
The storm seemed to be hanging low
and the thunder rolled ominously. The
lightning flashes were frightful, some
binding. The sharp reports indicated
that bolts were striking and those who
were out in the night noted fires burn
ing both north and south of the city.
The rain fell in torrents during the
storm and this did great good for the
farmers and others.
During the storm lightning struck a
large haystack on Freebooter Errick-
sons farm on Burlington avenue and
it was burned up. The stack was in
close proximity to the barn and some
men soon gathered there and kept the
flames from communicating to the
barn.
There was some ten or twelve tons
of new mown hay in the stack.
Lightning also struck telephone
pole on Pamphylia avenue, splintering
it.
A Pioneer man going to the
Erickson hay stack fire, was close to
the pole struck and was stunned by
the shock and totally blinded for some
minutes, but not injured
In some parts of the Third ward
wires are down so the residents have
no telephone communication with down
town. The same complaint is heard
from the Fifth ward. Trouble men for
the telephone companies are busy.
A chimney on residence on Man
helm avenue near East Commerce street
was blown over. A hole was made in
the roof where it struck, but no other
damage was done.
Lightning struck the cupola of the
Bank street school house and nipped off
the northwest corner of the roof. The
damage is slight.
For some reason unexplainable the
flash did not connect with anything but
the small roof and then only one ex-
treme corner of that. Not even the
woodwork of the cupola was hit
Pieces of slate were scattered on the
roof of the main building and, of
course, ragged edge was left exposed.
The Building Committee of the
Board of Education visited the school
this morning and took immediate
action to have the damaged roof re-
paired.
Last night lightning struck and de-
stroyed the barn of a Mr.. Krapps, who
resides in the brick house on Lands
avenue, this side of Rosenhayn. A COW
in the barn was killed.
Wind did some damage at Newport.
A new shed at Duffield's livery was
turned completely around. the gale
picking it up from the foundation and
changing its position. The wind went
in direct path and fortunately its
course was short.
Fortescue did not suffer any from the
storm. The thunder gust was not as
hard as in Bridgeton. There was heavy
wind with it and torrents of rain for
about an hour, but none of the cottages
or boats were damaged
Out near Centreton, during the storm
lighting struck the big barn of Abbot
Lawrence. Instantly the structure was
fired and soon was in a big blaze. The
barn was filed with hay and grain, all
of which was destroyed. Many of the
farming implements and live stock
were saved. The loss falls heavily
upon the farmer.

WEEKS BANK EXCHANGES.

NEW YORK, July 1O.-Dun's Review
tomorrow will say:
Bank exchanges this week in leading
cities of the United States aggregated
81, 90! ST., 76O, a decrease Of 2S3 per cent
as compared with 1907. and 258 per cent
with the figures two years ago.
The comparison is unusually unfavor-
able, because Of the fact that only five
business days are included in 1903 in
with full weeks in preceding
years. Even with this difference, how
ever. some of these cities make very sat
reports. notably Kansas City.
with a decrease Of only 6.3 per cent,
with the full week last year,
and a gain Of III per cent over 1905
At Chicago the decrease is only 1874
per cent from the clearings in 1907, and
there is an increase Of 1.3 per cent over
the excl anges two years ago. The diff
ference in number Of days is eliminated
by taking the daily average statement.
which for the month Of July thus far
shows q decrease Of IL per cent from last
years exchanges. and So compared with
1858. These figures are more truly rep

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The course of the market at today's
meeting of the stock exchange did not
show any change from conditions Of pre-
ceding days. Not even the nomination OF
Bryan had any effect.
The call proceeded just as If the day
had not witnessed the naming of candi-
date for the presidency by one of the
great political parties. In fact. the mar
ket has anticipated what has happened
at Chicago and also at Denver. and with
equal confidence 1t also seems to be fore
casting the results Of the election.
In spite, however. of this attitude, it is
expected that before all the returns are
in and counted there will be many alarms
which will be reflected in movements Of
securities listed on the exchange.
The national banks of this city are the
first in the country to file with the Sec
rotary of the Treasury their certificates
of formation of national currency as
ISOLATION under the new currency law
The association. whose certificate was ap-
proved by Secretary Cortelyou yester-
day bears the name of the National Cur
rency Association of Washington, D. c.,
and includes in its membership all ma
ton banks in the District of Columbia.

One Of the latest adaptations Of cleo

sui James f. Dunning, at Milan. Italy,
in a recent report published by the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor. states
that an electrical cow-milking machine
is at present sought in Italy. especially
in Lombardy. the chief agricultural CEN
ter of the kingdom.
Nothing of the kind" the report adds.

Of this character an almost indispensable
necessity. The report states that electri-
cal cow-milking machines are dutiable.

apparatus is recognized by the Italian
government.

Vaults Crowded With cofhns.

Should the Emperor Francis Joseph die
within the next few months. corre-
spondent writes to me from Vienna. there
would be much difficulty in finding a suit
able resting place for him in the imperial
vaults Of the Capuchin Church, where
the Hapsburgs have been buried for more
than 200 years. In that period no fewer
than 132 emperors and expresses, arch
dukes and archduchesses have been laid
there, and now their massive lead collins
overcrOwd the vaults. A commission Of
appointed to see what can be done to
make more room. The burial place must
either be extended beneath the small gar
den attached to the monastery and church
or else the monks will have to give I'D
part Of their cellarage fof the purpose
The last person whose remains were
placed there was the Grand Duke of Tus-
cany, Archduke Ferdinand, and there was
good deal of trouble in finding room
for his coffin. 1t would be a great scan
dial if such thing were to happen in the
case Of the venerated emperor.
Mr.. Balfour apparently is losing his
hold as public speaker. No observer Of
the great audience in the Albert Hall
yesterday afternoon at the demonstra-
ton against the licensing bill. could fail
to be struck by the apathetic attitude dur
ing Mr.. Balfour's cpeech. The hall was
more crowded than I have seen it for
some time past. and the assembly gave
Mr.. Balfour a tumultuous welcome as he
walked on to the platforms circum-
stance which made it's somewhat chilly
reception of his remarks all the more
pointed. At no moment did he rouse his
audience to any considerable display Of
enthusiasm. During the latter part of his
speech a low buzz Of conversation filled
the hall. and many OF the audience were
scarcely attentive.
Mr. Balfour himself was not in the
best form for big platform effort. His
voice failed him repeatedly. Often the
per only. and he was at a loss for a
word rather more frequently than usual
On the licensing bill. as on the fiscal
question, his opinions were jotted down
on half sheet OF notepaper.

One of the objectionable crimes against
children is to repress their natural curios-

unfolding of a rosebud in springtime is
something that might well interest an

THE COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK. July 1O.-The cotton mar
ket opened firm at an advance of s to Is
points on covering following better cables
than called for, Liverpool reporting an
advance of to points instead of ia
21s points expected. For a time the mar
ket was very active on covering and
prices further advanced 4a1O points Later
II was said that Liverpool had been in
fiuenced partly by reports of damage by
hot winds in east Texas.
As the official temperatures were only
- to IS degrees, there was a selling
movement which caused a reaction of
to 10 points. especially as the weather
and crop news and southern spot market
news remained as bearish as ever But
reports of steady absorption of October
contracts in the hands of a concentrated
interest continued to give the market a
firm undertone.

of enormous extravaganza. Each dish

NEW YORK, July 1O.-Inasmuch as the
stock market for the past week or more
has been discounting the nomination Of
Mr.. Bryan for the presidency in a general
advance, it was quite in accord with the
principles of the game that the dealings
today, with that fact accomplished. should
have exhibited reactionary tendencies. At
the same time the net gains scored were
in few cases really extensive, and there
were numerous exceptions of more or less
significance to the general drift.
Price movements were. in fact, decidedly
irregular, and much of the days selling of
stocks appeared to represent operations
for the short account
Apart from political affairs. there was
little or nothing to engage attention at
the opening of business. The London
stock market showed a dropping tendency
throughout the course of the business ses-
sion. and foreign houses were sellers on
balance in the local dealings, although
upon small scale.
Fair Distribution of Interest.
The volume of transactions measured
closely up to the weeks averages and
fair distribution of speculative interest
was disclosed.
good deal of attention was attracted
10 the course of the commodity markets,
which was generally upward, with
particularly sharp advance in corn. At
the same time there was nothing in the
days advices with regard TO the crop to
account for the movement in prices in
that direction.
Money market affairs also showed no
developments of any consequence, al
though the indications point to another
