STAcNANT MARKET
Experienced in Stocks Yesterday
Period Around July I One OF
Quiet Trading.

New York, June 2S.-The period
period around July LIST is one, tradi.
tionally of quiet stock trading This
nominal tendency was emphasized
today by several additional circum-
stances which combined to throw the
market into state of stagnation not
approached for many months past
The torrid heat of last week drove
many usually active participants in
the market operations away from
Wall Street with the prospect Of a
short week to follow. with the close
|of the stock exchange next Saturday
ready decided on, there was little in
centive to take up activities.
After the first hour the market was
practically idle. Some attention was
paid to the reports of crop conditions,
but. the market received no stimulus
from these reports. The entering Of
the tariff bill upon the final stages Of
its discussion gives promise of the
much desired consummation, although
speculation and the march of business
have gone forward so effectively
without waiting for the termination
of the tariff struggle that some ques
tion arises as to the course of the
speculation with the actual amend
ment of the law
Confidence is unimpaired that July
money settlements will offer no factor
of disturbance and the money mar
kets remain in the soft and yielding
state that has characterized them for
some time past. Shipments of gold
going on from New York are a meas
ure of relief from the plethoric mon
ely market due to the excess of inflow
from the interior over the outgo by
gold exports, the amount of the latter
since last January having risen slight
ly over $60,000,000 while the excess

ments in that time is estimated at no
less than $l00000,000.

DECLINE IN WHEAT
General Selling Prompted by Rapid
HARVESTING Other Grains
Weak in Sympathy

Chicago, June 2S-WHEAT.-The
rapid progress of harvest operations
in the southwest prompted general
selling today resulting in sharp de.
clines There was a fair degree OF
firmness at the opening caused by the
advance at Liverpool, due it was said
to bullish adyices regarding the
wheat crop in France and Arg 4ntna
but before the end Of the first half
hour sentiment hal become bearish
and the heaviness increased as trad
ing advanced.
The feature of the trading was the
liberal sales by two leading cash in
terests, which selling was based in
all probability on the greatly in
creased offerings of new wheat from
the country.

DREAM MAKES HIM PAY,
Seeing Relative lowering Between
Heaven and Hades Man Settles
Bill with Undertaken.

Trenton, N. j., July 19.--Conscience,
stricken because he failed to pay a
bill for funeral expenses contracted
ten years ago. Frank Quick, Of this
city, visited the home OF Thomas
Crawford, a former undertaken, and
handed him aRfF6il' Of bills. He ex
planned to Crawford that he was to
have paid the burial expenses of q
near relative, but failed, -.
Quick had several dreams in which
he imagined his relative was hover.
ing halfway between heaven and
hades because the undertakers bill
was unpaid. The scene was so vivid
in the dreams that Quick's conscience
worried him and he resolved to dis.
charge the debt.
Mr.. Crawford scarcely remembered
his former patron and informed him
1t was not necessary to pay the bill
as 1t was outlawed. Quick's answer
was: 'i...- -.
1T might be outlawed in the sight
of man, but will never be outlawed In
the sight of God until / pay it."

FLAG STAFF
Daring Deed Performed by Stranger
at Court House.
High diddle diddle,
Way out in the middle"


Twixt old Mother Earth and the sky,
on the top of the lofty flag pole sur
mounting the Mahaska county court
house, with two legs wrapped tightly
around the frail looking pole as his
only support, H. A. LaDew accom-
plished a difficult feat Monday after
noon in replacing the worn out hal
yard with new galvanized iron cable
to be used in hosting the flag.
Spectators for blocks around witness
ed the proceeding as ne shined up
the pole and climbed around the big
brass ball which marks about the mid
die of the shaft. No one contests his
claim that the dizzy task was per-
formed perfectly for he is without
competition in his profession.
Awaiting the services of someone
willing to risk his life by attempting
the hazardous task of replacing the
halyard, the star spangled banner has
ceased to wave over the county build
ing since last Decoration Day when
II was UOlSleu lot the ldSI llllle SUI
cessfully. The new cable will last
for several years and before it is worn
out a copper halyard will be substi-
tuted in its place, which can be done
without climbing the pole. Mahaska
county paid ten dollars for this ser
vice and a few interested spectators
in the park across the street contri-
buted towards a hat collection to buy
refreshments for the nervy man.
"Steeple Jack" as LaDew Is known
over the country, spent his earlier life
in the U. s. Navy where ne received
his training in high air performances,
mast climbing, etc, and now he trav-
els independently over the country,
stopping now and then to perform
such service as he did here, accept
ing only the tasks considered unde-
sirable by other workmen. He climb
ed the flag pole on the court house
here once before in 1892 or '93, and
so far as is known only one other man
has ever attempted the same feat,
LaDew says the last time he was
here Fred Romer, who then conduct
ed clothing store on the west side
OF the square, made him a present OF
a new suit of clothes in appreciation
OF his daring.

FRIGHTENED AEROAAUT FALLS
ALEXANDER WILLIAMS HURT
AND MACHINE WRECKED.
lmaglnes Himself In an Aerial Col.
iislon and Lets the Flyer Crash
to Earth.

New York. July 19.-Alexander
Williams, an amateur aeronant, was
badly hurt when Glenn II. CHrtiss'
aeroplane, which he was attempting
to operate yesterday at Mineola. L..
l., fell to the ground and was
wrecked
While Williams had driven many an
automobile, is familiar with gas en-
gines, and is somewhat of machin-
list. he seemed to lose complete con-
troll of himself as the aeroplane
scared upward and when II had at
tanned height Of thirty feet the
craft careened sharply to the right,
swooped toward the earth, and
striking on end turned completely
over, then rolled on its back. Will
Jams remained pinned In his seat un.
til lifted out. He was delirious as a
physician bent over him and NUT.
tered that some one had collided with
him in the air. He suffered several
broken bones. q
Witnesses of the accident say It
was merely case Of man attempt
ing something which taxes the nerves.
the body and the brain simultane.
ously and that Williams simply had
stage fright. His attempted flight
followed successful one made by
Edward Foster Willard of New York
city, also a member Of the Aeronau.
tic society, who remained in the air
for % seconds, making a short flight
at an average height of 20 feet. Cur,
tiss took the machine and made a
beautiful flight. ,- IS
nj Williams then took his seat in the
machine, and with parting words OF
caution to keep 1t close to the ground
started away. He had previously
matched coins with Willard to decide
who should make the first fight. Dur
Ing this he evinced such nervousness
that a member Of the party remarked
that perhaps he had better not at
tempt to ascend. For some reason
however, little attention was paid to
the incident.
A weeks work at least will be re
CURED to patch up the flyer.
