WATERBURY, Conn, July 24.-Har-
ry Drinkwater, q dashing locomotive
engineer of this city, won't have to
wear any flags to prove his patriotism.
1t will be several weeks before his fea-
lures will lose the red, white, blue and
olive green tints which they acquired
when he essayed to stop fistic argu-
ment between his wife and another
mans wife. He finally. managed to
separate the two.
Mrs. Harry Drinkwater was doing
the family ironing when she received a
mental flash that her husband was
about to elope with Mrs. Harry Clark.
te buxom wife of Torrington's most
popular blacksmith. The premontt1on
was so strong that Mrs. Drinkwater
put on her hood and shawl and hurried
to the railroad station. sure enough

mustered up enough courage to work
his way through the crowd.

wife, pitching into him with the UNI
brella. Mrs. Clark tried to reach Mrs
Drinkwater, but the husband stood be-
tween them.
His face was fast taking on the
colors of the rainbow when the police
interrupted the fight and took all hands
to the station.

Retail trade is fair as whole, being
stimulated by price reduction sales,
though complaint of stocks not moving
rapidly comes from other cities apd
collections show little if any improve
ment.
Best reports come from the central
west. northwest and southwest, and the
excellent outlook for the cotton crop
makes for better tone of advices
from the south. Numerous resump-
lions of car shop concerns are a fea-
ture and the number of idle cars mas

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, July 24.-The wheat market dis
played the greatest strength of the day soon
after the opening when prices advanced ap-
proximately 1c above the previous closing.
Shorts and commission houses were eager bid
ders at the outset and offerings for time
were meager.
The chief reason for the sharp upturn was
the strength of foreign markets and hot
which revived old rumors Of the wheat crop
In the Dakotaa deteriorating on account OF the
drouth.
Toward the end of the first hour offerings in
the pit became more free, which resulted In a
reaction. The trade during the last half of
the session was rather quiet, but sentiment
continued bullish. Large primary receipts
however, tended to check any further ad-
vance, The market closed firm. September
opened %9Ac higher at 91hQ91%c, advanced
TO 92c and closed at 91%@91hc.
The corn market showed decided strength
early owing to the Continued small movement
and the limited amount of contract supplies
the September delivery which resulted in
forcing the price Of that option up to nc, the
high point of the season Later the market
eased off somewhat. The close was steady
September opened h@hc higher at 7eAQ7G4sc,
advanced TO nc and closed at 76asc
Oats were strong early. September ad-
vanced 1c Nearly all the gain lost later
on liberal realizing by local holders. The close
was firm however. September opened &6he
TO hd6skc higher at 455sd45%c, sold up to 46Mc
and then declined to 45A@45ssc. The close was
at 45%@45kc.
Provisions were weak al DAY because OF
general profit taking by both local and outside
longs. At the close September pork was off
17jkc, lard was down 12lsQl5c and ribs were
l2jhc lower.

THOMPSON SEEDLESS
GRAPES IN MARKET
PLUMs ADVANCE AND PEACHES
DECLINE
Potatoes and Onions In Bad Shape.
Increased Acreage May Cause
Big Waste In
Stock

Thompson seedless grapes reached the street
market from Dinuda yesterday. The shipment
was limited to few crates, but the grapes
were of excellent quality, selling at 81. 90 a
crate. Other grapes were in fair receipt.
Onions were up to SLIPS and peaches down to
sl.15 Other prices prevailed, but the general
run was as quoted
There was a shrinkage In cantaloupes. The
best stock brought "a q large crate. Water
melons had q fair market. Receipts are heavy
but the demand is holding up quite well.
The market for onions and potatoes is in bad
shape. The increased acreage has weakened
the market for this year. The potatoes grown
IN dry lands have a chance Of keeping, but
the irrigated stock will for the most part go
to waste. Bermuda onions were offered yester-
day low as SOC a sack, but even at that
price there was no market
