BOY'S TERRIBLE FATE.

In the presence of hundreds OF per-
sons 14-year-old Chester Belts, son OIL
Bert N. Belts, of Flint, Mich, was
accidentally caught by the guy rope oil
a balloon yesterday and carried about
1000 feet in the air before the rope un
tangled and hurled him to his death.
He crashed against the roof OF barn
and was still alive when spectators
reached him, but he soon died The
tragedy occurred at county fair and
when the balloon and aeronaut shot
upward many persons thought the
youth dangling at the end Of the rope
was dummy The heroic efforts of
the balloonist to rescue the boy soon
disclosed the truth to the crowd below.
AS the big gas bag went higher and
higher the aeronaut, in peril Of his
own life, could be seen working des-
perately to pull the lad to the trapeze.
Finally the rope, swirled away from
the boy and the tiny form dropped
like a stone.

WELL-STOCkED MARKET.

There was a fair attendance of
country people in market this morn
ing notwithstanding the rainy wealth
er. There was an average attendance
of buyers. There was a general COM
plant upon the part of the latter that
prices Of the nccessaries of life
showed no indications of moving from
high-water mark Notwithstanding re-
ports Of bumper crops. Some buyers
preferred to believe prices were fixed
before the opening Of the market and
sellers were determined to hold pro-
duce at fixed rates during the day.
Butter and eggs were as firm as ever
at former prices, but some varieties
of vegetables were lower. Green corn
ranged from ~ to 20 cents; lima
beans 10 to II; black-eyed peas lO
cents; tomatoes 8 cents per quarter
peck. Other vegetables showed but
little changes from last Saturdays
figures.

Democratic Managers Say it
Was Financed by the
Combines.
STEEL TRUSTS GIFT
Contribution of $4,000 Said to Have
Been Acknowledged by Republican
Committee.

New York, Aug. 31.-That the Dem
ocratic campaign managers hope to
develop that Col. Roosevelt campaign
of 1904 was heavily financed by the
trusts when the senatorial lnvestiga-
tion is resumed in Washington was ad-
mitted at headquarters here today.
They hope to make the opening wedge
by having a contribution of $4,000
made by the steel trust. inquired into.
The record of this contribution is con-
tained in the Democratic campaign
text book, just issued, the contribution
being acknowledged by c. II. Duel, as
sistant treasurer of the Republican
National Committe and E. T. Stotes-
bury, chairman of the finance commit
tee. Stotesbury was also member
of Morgan & Co.
In the text book are contained
long excerpts from the minutes of the
steel trust which are interesting as
showing that the finance committee
of the Steel Trust, according to its
secretary, Richard Tromble, aided in
the investigation by Commissioner
Garfield of the entire affairs of the COR
poration. One extract says:
''The finance committee has been in
close touch with the matter at
all times. We have been in frequent
and almost constant communication
with Commissioner Garfield, and more
or less with the President himself, corr
cerning these matters"
When George w. Perkins was asked
about the contribution he not only ad-
mitted that it was made but said:
in 1904 it was customary and eX-
pected by everybody that corporations
would contribute to the campaign
funds of the party they favored. No
body saw any great harm in it then, or
at least it was taken as matter Of
course"
George 3. Cortelyou, however, in
testifying recently denied that he as
chairman of the Republican commit
tee had received any money for the
1904 campaign from the trusts.

LONG DELAY IN
BECkER'S TRIAL
Whitman Insists That it Will
Begin in a Fort
night.
NO CHANGE OF VENUE.
Family Poker Club" is Raided by Po"
lice This Morning-Giyes Tender
loin Some Excitement

New York, Aug. 3l.-Although Dis
trict Attorney Whitman positively IN
sisted today that there would be no
change of venue and that the trial OF
Police Lieutenant Becker for the mur-
der of Gambler Rosenthal, would
surely begin within a fortnight 1t
seemed certain today that there would
be long delay in starting the trial.
When Becker is arraigned in court
next week Whitman will demand
struck jury and an immediate trial.
Jno. f. Mcintyre, counsel for Becker
however, will ask for either delay
or change of venue. Justice Coli
is expected to refuse the application
of the defense and grant the motions
of the District Attorney. 1t was learn
ed today, however, that Mcintyre anti
cipated this action and will immedi-
ately appeal from Justice Gotf's deci-
sion. This appeal will be in such form
that it can be carried to the State
Court of Appeals which will mean that
it will be months before a decision
can be reached.
Early today Inspector Dwyer gave
the tenderloin a little excitement by
swooping down on the Attic Club and
raiding it. This is a Family poker
club" with exclusive rooms, just off
Broadway, and for years has run
unmolested. Dwyer contented himself
with breaking up the poker tables and
selling the cards and chips. The po-
lice claim this was the last of the open
gambling houses.

GRAND JURY PROBE.
Detailed Description of Discovery" of
Dynamite Printed in Newspaper be-
fore Explosive Was Found.

Boston, Mass, Aug. 31.-Because 3
detailed account Of the discovery
of dynamite concealed in pursuance Of
"a plot to destroy" Lawrence by the
strikers was printed in a local paper
before the explosive was actually
found, District Attorney Pelletier
investigating the dynamit conspir.
acy, believes he will be able to involve
men not already named.
In addition to William NJ. Wood
son of Portuguese immigrant, who
now dominates the textile industry
Pelletier intimated today there are
other prominent figures involved ir
the resort to dynamite to break a
strike and discredit the strikers. He
will continue the Grand Jury probe
next week and will call a prominent
mill official and at least one news
paper man to find where they OBJ,
tanned knowledge they are known tc
have had of the presence of dyna-
mite prior to its actual discovery.
Wood will not be formally arraign-
ed on the conspiracy charge until the
other mill man, whose identity is
still withheld, jointly indicted, is able
to be present. He is now recovering
from injuries received in an automo-
bile accident.
According to Wood and his attor-
neys they will join with the district
attorney in demanding an immediate
trial OF the charge.

1t might be urged by some that no

that was not the fault Of the dyna-
mite planters. The stuff might have
been exploded and hundreds might
have been killed. If the dynamite
was planted by Wood and his gang,
it was done for the purpose of taking
the liberty of strike leaders by false
ly accusing them of crime and that IS
as dastardly as murder.

SUNDAY MAIL RULES.
Postmaster General Hitchcock Sends
Out Letter of Instructions to
Office.

AS has been stated in the Gazette,
the enforcement of the new Sunday
closing law with respect to the win
dow delivery of mail to the general
public will not interfere with the de-
livery of mail to hotel guests, news
paper Offices, newsuealers and others
who have been in the habit of getting
their mail for transit or business rea-
sons for many years past.
This fact was made clear yesterday
in a circular letter of instructions
which Postmaster General Hitchcock
Iissued to the several thousand post
masters in charge of the first and sec
ond class offices to which the Sunday
closing provision Of the new postotfice
appropriation act is applicable,
These instructions were necessary
because of the misunderstanding and
doubt existing throughout the coun-
trv as to the effect Of the Sunday
closing provision and the liberallty
with which it would be construed by
the head of the department.
Not only has the department been
deluged with requests from hotel men,
travelling statesmen, business houses
and newspaper proprietors, who have
appealed direct for the facts, but al
so with requests from first and Sec
ond class postmasters who have beer
almost as much in doubt as their pa
irons over the attitude of the depart
ment.
These requests were so unanimous
and insistent that Postmaster-Gene'
raj Hitchcock found it necessary tc
issue letter of instructions that goes
into considerable details regarding
first and second class postmasters;
what they are to do, etc. This letter
was mailed last night and telegraph
ic instructions were likewise sent tt
the principal postmasters, directing
them to take care of newspapers
newsdealers and hotel mail as IN tht
mast and see to it that it is delivered
The office in this city will be opened
at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning as usu
al in order that rentors of lock DoXe:
may obtain their mail as usual.
