GEORGE srEADMAN DEAD.
Pioneer Of Iowa and Civil War Vet.
eran Passes Away in West.

Manchester, Aug. 14.-George W.,
only surviving brother Of S. A. Stead
man Of this city, and for more than
four years in the secret service OF the
Union army during the war of the re-
bellion, died in ST. Elizabeth's hospital
at Lincoln, Neb., Monday, Aug. 3,
1915, in the sgd year OF his age. The
body of Comrade Steadman was
brought to this city for burial in Oak
land cemetery beside that of his wife,
who passed away here thirty years
ago.
Few men who offered their lives in
the hour of their country's peril saw
greater or more hazardous service
than Mr.. Steadman. He and a com
rade were for years trusted spies in
the employ of the Union armies, pass
ing thru many thrilling experiences
and escaping capture on various oc-
casions by a hairbreadth. In carrying
out the dangerous commissions en-
trusted to them, both wore the gray
oftener than the blue, and the service
rendered by them was of the highest
value to the Union army. Mr.. Stead
man was with General Sherman on the
march to the sea, and left the service
with sterling record for daring and
trustworthiness. His death will be
mourned by the many old friends here
who were associated with him in earl
Ter days, when this county was almost
wholly unsettled, and they Will hope
for him a peaceful, untrouDled sleep
and a happy reunion with those gone
before.

Chicago, Aug. 14.-Large receipts
mere and notices of increased consign-
ments from first hands had a bearish
effect today on wheat. AT first, now
ever, there was some strength as a
result of firmness at Liverpool and be-
cause of assertions that few British
purchases in America had been can
celIed. Predictions of light worlds
shipments tended also to harden prices
at the outset. The opening, Which
ranged from L off to Is up, with Sep
TENDER at 1.0714 to 1913. and De-
cember at 1.O6s4 to 107. was followed
by a slight general advance. and then
a material decline all around.
Concerns that generally act for the
seaboard were fair buyers on the de-
cline The weakness of sterling eX-
change. tho, was said to be operating
as decided check on exporters. Prices

Corn.
Corn eased off when wheat turned
weak. Trade was confined IN the main
TO transactions between pit spectators.
After opening unchanged to Il higher,
the market sagged.
No important rally ensured. The
close was steady at Il and e to u
net decline.
Lack OF buying support was appar-

If Detroit fails to halt the Sox rush
or even should Jennings people get
an even break, the South Siders will
still be riding safely and will gain
even more confidence. Right now
the Sox don't believe there is a team
in the league that can put an obstacle
in their path. They go out each aft
eTnOOn confident they can bat home
enough runs to win, no matter what
the score of the other people, and this
feeling wins ball games when backed
by the mechanical ability distributed
through the local lineup.
Of their last IA games the Sox have
won ID. They were fortunate to
catch a long series with Browns and
Cleveland at this particular time.
Yesterdays game was won because
all the fellows but Eddie Collins and
Roth rose up and hit the ball Felsch
tTipled with two on. Weilman, the
star of the Brown staff, was whipped.
Benz had trouble all the way, but his
pals attack made his path safe.
Red Sox won two games from the
MackS, eacn team using nVe plCcnerS.
Boston made 20 hits and Athletics %.
Witt poIed two triples and Crawford
a single, double and triple, making it
easy for Detroit. Chapman made
three hits for Cleveland.
WARRIOR was good and Yanks beat
Washington. Milan has at last start
ed to bat for Washington and made a
single and double.
Bill Doak pitched his first shUtoUt
of the year, giving Pirates five hits.
SaIIee was slammed in second and
st. Louis got split.
Alexander was hit hard, but not un-
til PhiIs had rolled up big lead on Da-
Wis, the Harvard pitcher. Connolly,
Brave left fielder, was hit in face by
grounder and knocked out. Luder-
us and Magee knocked hOmers.
Pfeffer held Giants to two hits.
