CHICAGO, Jan. 0. Wheat opened about as
It closed yesterday. Hay brought Z7i$c at
the opening plunge, and kept between theae
prices and 5Sc for half an hour, and then
made a. slight advance. Foreign markets were
generally quoted firm, and St. Leu is advised an
other 100,000 bushels of wheat sold this morn
ing for immediate shipment to the seaboard,
making 350,000 bushels disponed of in that way
In t'ie last three days. Bradstreet's visible-supply
statement when received did not come up to
the bulls' expectations, as it showed that the
world's stock had only decreased 045,000 bush
els. Instead of about 2.0o0,000, as many had
looked for. May advanced to 55&534c. fell

the early afternoon, while there was no abate
ment of the firmness, the market became dull,
and the upward movement made no material
progress until the beginning of the last hour.
The harmonious condition of the meeting of the
American Sugar Refining Company in electing
the oW board of directors, although to be ex
pected, seemed to Infuse some life Into the trad
ing, and on moderate buying an advance of 2i
per cent was effected from the low point of the
morning, the stock closing at the highest figure
touched, and 28 above yesterday's closing. The
general market also took upon itself consider
able buoyancy. Chicago Gas made additional
gains, and Chicago & Alton and Burlington

WOMEN LEGISLATORS.
The Three Member of Colorado's Au
cmuly Get In Their Work,
DENVER, Jan. 9. The members of. the
lower house of the Colorado general as
sembly, who have been congratulating
themselves on the smcothness with -which
things were working, so far as the three
women legislators were concerned, were
surprised, yesterday. The selection of
clerks for the several committees was pre
arranged In caucus, but somehow the
women secured positions for their con
stituents, while some influential members
were left with their candidates lamenting.
The candidates made a fuss, and the mem
bers laid the blame upon Mrs. Cressing
ham, secretary of the caucus. She heard
of this yesterday and -waxed indignant.
She said:
"If you men do not know how to trans
act business, you had better learn now.
As secretary of the caucus, I shall not be
covertly insulted by having the members
go about saying that I have not reported
motions rightly. You make motions,
amend them, quarrel over them, add sub
stitutes, and when the final vote comes
you don't know what you are doing. If,
then, you have prevented the selection
of your candidates as clerks, don't you
dare lay the blame on me; I won't stand
it."
Among the bills introduced yesterday
was one by Mrs. Carrie Holly, to raise the
age of consent for girls from 15 to 21
years. All the women will support this
measure.
A TALK WITH INGALLS.
Ho Is Xot a Candidate for the Senate
Rat "Would Accept.
SEDAXJA, Mo., Jan. 9. Ex-Senator
John J. Ingalls, who is here, authorizes
the publication of the following statement:
"I am not a candidate for the Kansas
senatorship. I will not iaise my hand to
secure it, but what is to be will be, and
no man will throw away a United States
senatorship. No, I don't believe that the
present congress will pass a currency
bill, and for this reason President Cleve

COULD NOT EARN FEES.
"Women Kot Allowed to Sit as Jurors
in Colorado.
DENVER, Colo., Jan. 9. Judge Allen,
of the district court, yesterday, excused
Sirs. Clara B. Craig and Mrs. W. Millard
Bell from serving as jurors. They had
been drawn in the regular way and had
consented to serve, but when they arrived
at the courthouse the judge peremptorily
discharged them. They declined to be dis
missed so easily, and wanted to know why
they should not earn jurors' fees as well
as the professional male jurors. Judge
Allen said that no provision had been
made for the accommodation of women
as jurors, and he doubted if the law per
mitted it, anyway. He painted the terrors
of an all-night sitting, and showed them
the Inconvenience of being locked up in
a room with a lot of horrid men. They
went away dissatisfied.

Gold on IIIh Timber Claim.
According to a resident of Kirkland who
was In the city today, the land in the
vicinity of the Sammamish river is lined
with gold. The resident in question owns
ICO acres of timber land on the river, about
16 miles from Seattle, says the Press
Times, to which he was issued a patent
in 18S3. A few days ago he paid a visit
to his property and was much surprised
to find live miners at work, who were "us
ing a rocker, and by that primitive means
were washing out from 51 to $3 worth of
gold each a day. "When he disclosed his
identity as owner of the ground on which
they had discovered their gold mine, the
miners offered to divide the result of
their labor with him, a proposition which
he declined to accept, and at once came
to Seattle to find out what his legal rights
were. With the introduction of hydraulic
mnchinery there is little doubt that the
producion can be doubled or trebled, and
the long-expected mining boom in this
state may be fairly started. "Under the
law the owner of the land has a right
to eject the miners.

DEADLY ENCOUNTER IX A TOWX IX
ARIZOXA. .. .
A Drunken. Maalac, After "WoandlHsr
, An InnocenfIon. Ik Shot Down
by Slilitiamen.
-J
PHOENIX, Aril.. Jan. 9. Harry Atkin
son, clerk of the Gregory house at Tempe,
-was shot this morning by W. C. Bas
cora, a miller, atthe Pima Indian reser
vation. The encounter was upon a roof
top, near the Gregory house, where Bas
com, who was crazed with liquor, had
established himself with a "Winchester
rifle. Atkinson and several others were
endeavoring to secure the maniac, -when
he shot, the bullet striking Atkinson
above the temple, ranging forward and
destroying both eyes. Atkinson, who is
but 20 years old, may die. Bascom, after
the shooting, jumped oft the roof
and took refuge in a small stable, en
trenching himself behind hay bales and
bidding defiance to the officers. In the
emergency, the militia was called upon.
About 20 militiamen opened fire on the
little structure with Titles. After they
had perforated the building with 100 shots
or more, Bascom suddenly appeared at
the door with a leveled rifle. A half dozen
guardsmen at once fired, aiming low, and
Bascom fell with a smashed leg. He
was removed to his Toom at the hotel and
died this evening at S o'clock from loss
of blood. Delirium left him just before
death and he gave clear directions as
to the disposition of Tils estate. He was
well connected In Kentucky and has long
been a valued government employe.
STILL A MYSTERY.
The Allejred Lynchers of Barrett
Scott Bound Over.
O'NEILL, Neb., Jan. 9. Hinkerman,
Roy and Mullihan the alleged lynchars
of Barrett Scott, waived preliminary ex
amination and were bound over in $12,000
bonds to appear in district court next
month. A large number of letters were
received from detectives, who want to be
employed to ferret out the mystery, on
man going so far as to say he would re
cover the body of Scott for $300. It is be
lieved the family wishes to keep the name
of the author of this last-mentioned let
ter from the public, until he Is in the
clutches of tke law, and then he will be
made to tell what he knows about the
case, as It is supposed it was sent for
the purpose of throwing the authorities
off the track. Sheriff Hamilton will start
out tomorrow to head a parly of 20 vol
unteers, residents of the Niobrara valley,
who will continue the search for the body.
The work will be on the theory that the
tcdy was thrown into the Niobrara river,
and the party will be supplied with grap
pling hooks to drag the river. Since the
bed of the river is constantly shifting, and
is full of quicksand, there is little chance
of it being located, if It Is really in the
river.
OTHER CRIME NEWS.
A Modern Jack Shepherd.
STOCKTON, Cal., Jan. 9. Antone Vital,
the condemned murderer, -who was a
short time ago transferred from San
Quentin state prison, while under sen
tence of death, to the state insane asylum
In this city, escaped from the latter Insti
tution some time last night and is still at
large. The prisoner was watched with
special vigilance In the asylum and was
kept In irons ever since his commitment.
He was confined in a room on the top
story of the building. Handicapped as he
was by shackles on his hands, he man
aged to remove the casing from the win
dow, taking out the sash weights, and
used them to break, out enough of the iron
bars to admit of h(s body passing through.
He evidently covered the weights with
the bedclothing in his room so as to dead
en the sound. He then took the cords
that travel the pulleys and made a rope
of his bedclothes.
South Dnlcota's Ex-Treasurer MiK.slng
PIERRE, S. D., Jan. 9. The alleged
failure of W. H. Taylor, outgoing state
treasurer, to turn over the office to his
successor yesterday, has started rumors
flying of an investigation. Taylor seem
ingly cannot be located, but his bank
at Redfield closed Its doors last evening,
and he is alleged to be short a large
amount of state funds, just how much
cannot be now learned. It is reported
about 5230,000 should be on hand. Public
Examiner Meiers has not been able to se
cure a statement of where the funds
were deposited since last April. Tele
grams sent from here appear to have
failed to locate Taylor. Ex-Governor
Mellette, one of his bondsmen, is on the
road from Indiana, and ether bondsmen
are on his track.
The Men "Were Not Searched.
SACRAMENTO, Jan. 9. The Bee has
a startling theory In connection with the
Webber murder. It says Webber and his
wife were murdered December 29. The
murderers left their bloody clothing in the
back yard, donning suits from Webber's
wardrobe, taking the train for San Fran
cisco early next morning. New Year's
eve 10 drunks were placed in one cell, and
discharged next day. Later a trusty
found under the seat of a toilet a lady's
gold watch, which Captain Lees identi
fied as the property of the murdered wom
an. Webber's son confirmed the identifi
cation. If the prisoners had been earched
when locked up, the Webber murderers
would now be in jail.
Van Arsdal Sent to Jail.
HARRODSBURG, Ky., Jan. 9. Ex
Sheriff Van Arsdal, who murdered Dr.
Harrod last Friday, -was brought Into
court yesterday for preliminary hearing.
When Mr. Bronston, for the prosecution,
argued that the prisoner should be sent
to jail, he was loudly applauded. When
Van Arsdal was remanded to jail, the ap
plause was greater than before. At the
jail he asked that he be put upstairs, a
place where there are no cells. The re
quest was refused. A crowd followed the
prisoner to jail, and, when it became
known that he had been locked In a
murderer's cell, there was more cheering.

CHICAGO, Jari. 9. By the discovery
of a "fence" in La Grande, a suburb of
Chicago, and the arrest of two men, Peter
N. Kelden and Rudolph Redberg, the
police think they have unearthed an or
ganized band of burglars, which has
branches In all the principal cities of the
West. Since his arrest, Kelden, in a con
fession, intimated that such an organiza
tion exists. From the statement, the
police think the headquarters of the
gang are in San1 Francisco, and arrests
are likely to follow.'
A Larsre Snni Stolen.
TOLEDO, O., Jan. 9. The safe in the
Merchants National bank at Defiance,
O., was blown open with dynamite Mon
day night and about 523,000 stolen. The
officials were unable to open the vault
Tuesday morning. But, as there were no
signs of any one having been in the bank
the night before, they thought nothing
of it. An expert was sent for, and when
he opened the miter door today it was
discovered that the interior of the safe
had been blown up. The loss will not af

DIGNITY OF NAPOLEON.
Naturally Unostentatious, His Posi
tion Demanded. Display.
Napoleon once said that a throne was
but a pile of lumber covered with gor
geous trappings. He meant, no doubt, that
a throne required something more than
royal vestments to maintain It. While
simple himself in taste, he realized to the
fullest extent the necessity of gorgeous
array when appearing before the French
people as their emperor. Napoleon fre
quently established his court at Fontaln
bleau. whither all the high society of
Paris was at Napoleon's feet. Intoxicated
with enthusiasm, and the public appear
ances were rendered most brilliant by the
multitudes which surrounded him, eager
to see the man considered by them the
greatest in modern times. He frequently
showed himself in public accompanied by
the empress; but liked far better, accom
panied only by Duroc, to walk among
his subjects in disguise, endeavoring to
learn for himself whether the popular af
fection thus displayed was real. Many
incidents assured him that he was much
beloved, and amid all groups he heard hl3
name pronounced with gratitude and love
even 'when his presence was unknown.
Stae. Junot, In speaking of the events at
Fontalnbleau, especially those given in
celebration of the marriage of the king
of Westphalia, says: "No language can
convey a clear idea of the magnificence
the magical luxury which now surround
ed the emperor." Some years later the
most trying scenes in the emperor's life
occurred here. It was when the last of
the men whom he had raised from obscur
ity and loaded with wealth and honors
here abandoned him, that his spirits for
a moment quailed. The desertion of his
old friends and fellow-soldiers overcame
him, and that same night In a fit of de
spair he decided to take his life; but the
poison failed to act and his life was
saved. "It is not the loss of my throne,"
he said, "that makes existence intolera
ble to me. My military career is enough
glory for one man. Do you know -what
is more difficult to bear than reverses of
fortune? It Is the baseness the horrible
Ingratitude of man."
The general sentiment in regard to Na
poleon and his career is that the main
events -were so dramatic In character that
words always fell short of, expressing the
full importance of any one or series of
incidents. It is because his career offers
such superb opportunities for illustration
that painters have so eagerly seized upon
them as subjects for their work.
In the Napoleonic album -we have just
issued and are still distributing among
our patrons there are 331 photo-engravings,
reproductions from the pictures of
the most noted painters in the world.
These reproductions are 11 by 13 inches
in size, and their equal has never yet been

TELEPHONES IN WAR.
General Grecly Dwells on Their Utility
In HIh Annual Report.
All late wars, and especially the one now
waging between Japan and China, indi
cate thaE electrical connections are indis
pensable to the success of any army op
erating on a base apart from the general
telegraphic system, says General Greely
in his last annual report. Appreciating
this fact, the work of the signal corps
for the past few years has been given to
experimental work In the equipment of Its
flying telegraph lines, so that it may be
ready for any possible emergency, and
the system is so arranged that it looks
to performing temporary or telephonic
service, whether between headquarters of
a regiment and separate companies, or an
army and its different dvlsions, and
whether such operations pertain to gar
rison, camp or actual conflict.
The experiences of the past year prove
that the utility of the captive balloon is
not confined to the open country, but on
occasions it may be of supreme im
portance in connection with operations in
the great cities. The great modern city,
-with its solid blocks of compact buildings
extending for many miles, represents un
usual facilities for speedy and undis
turbed change of base on the part of bod
ies of lawless and riotous men engaged
in committing depredations and destroying
property. The extreme difficulty of over
coming riotous bodies within the limits of
a large city was strikingly exemplified In
Paris by the commune Insurrection,
where for weeks an inferior body of ill
disciplined and poorly-equipped men suc
cessfully resisted the most determined ef
forts of a superior force of regulars.
Within the past year the troops of our
own army, called upon to assist the civil
authorities, found themselves marching
miles of distance to repress riotous pro
ceedings, while the body of men sought
for had accomplished its end and was al
ready moving undisturbed and unobserved
to another objective point. Under such
conditions the operation of a captive bal
loon, provided with electric and telephonic
connection with the commanding general,
offers an unequaled means of observing
and instantly reporting the movements of
the hostile rioters, who would thus be un
der the surveillance of the commanding
general, enabling him to act with prompt
ness and effect.
Results of "Tariff Reform."
Boston Journal.
Democratic "tariff reform" has hit
American farmers hard. There can be no
denying it when the official statistics
show such a falling off as this in a single
month of 1S94 as contrasted -with the
corresponding month in the year preced-
