 FORCED TO RETIRE WESTERN UNION TELEGRAPH WITH HDRAWS WIRES AND ST.
 LOUIS CONCERN QUITS.
ACCUSED AS BUCKETSH0P
Suspension Follows Action In Wash. ncton-Laree Number of Gus oners on Company's
 Lists.

St Louis, June 15.-The Merchants Stock and Grain company has noti- fled it's customers that no further trades will be made in stocks, grain or provisions. The following notice is posted conspicuously on a large blackboard:
 owing to contingencies arising, all trades will be closed today"
 Recently Frank J. Minor manager of the concern, was convicted on charge of conducting a bucket shop and sentenced to serve five years in the state penitentiary.
 This case is now pending on appeal to the supreme court.
 The Western Union Telegraph con- pany, which furnished the service to the company, issued an order several days ago withdrawing its wires and operators from all alleged bucket shops.
 Order Followed indictment.
 This order followed the indictment in New York and Washington of a score of officials and employees of the Western Union, on charges of aiding bucket shops.
 It was presumed by the customers of the Merchants concern that this action of the telegraph company was the cause of its closing down.
 Circuit Attorney Jones in three weeks closed up eight so-called buck ct shops in St. Louis. The Merchants was the only one in this class which defied him and continued operations. The Merchants company has spa cious quarters at Fourth and Pine streets. sometimes crowded with as many as 300 customers. The men who go there speak of it as being backed by millions" It was the largest brokerage house of it's kind in the West.
 Many Branch Offices. The company has more than 300 branch offices throughout Missouri and the Southwest and all of these it is understood will be closed.
 Both state and federal authorities have begun a drastic war against the bucket shop evil within the past 30 i days.
 The company employs a force of 30 clerks. Its stock dealings were con fined to the New York stock ex- change.

is back from a nine months trip to
Europe. during which, as president of
the Hudson-Fulton celebration commit
tee, he presented Hudson-Fulton gold

with Queen Wilhemina at The Hague,
took breakfast with Kaiser Wilhelm in
Berlin. went to the opera with Presi-
dent Fallieres in Paris, was accorded a
special reception by King George of
England, M had a long visit with
King Victor Emanuel of Italy"
General Woodford celebrated his
seventy-ffth birthday on board the

ers marked the occasion with a BIRTH
day dinner, with a frosted birthday
cake and numerous pink candles.
