Heruaude Belldleg) Trade Conditions 2nd Current Prices on the Trading Tobacco Grain Live Stock and Produce Markets and Exchanges RANGE OF PRICES ON WALL STREET LIVE STOCK GRAIN ETC CLOSING MARKET REPORT (By Lyons' ft Co) CHICAGO Sept 1 There was but moderate swing to wheat prices today Thar was considerable bearish feeling In the trade early but the selling pressure failed to work the December price under 90 cents at which point there seemed to be good resting orders and a sort of revival of support from elevator and wire con corns Wheat trades were a little unsettled In their views early because of the tariff messages from Washington There was a feeling that free wheat might be the outcome of the Senate and House conference Later It was deter mined that the 10-cent duty on wheat and 45 cent duty on flour will probably stand until such time as Canada removes her present import duties The prospect of very heavy movement of choice Canadian wheat which foreigners are likely to take in preference to hard wheat here at the difference in price is the chief bearish feature in sight at present Heaviness was denoted In the corn trade durlhg the morning For an hour following the trade showed little activity and only moderate rally The last hour brought much Improved buying Local receipts were smaller at 420 cars OATS Again this trade simply fol lowed the action In corn Local receipts 126 cars Shipping sales 250000 bush els Local shorts and brokerage Arms wth resting orders were fairly good buyers at the lower prices of the morning On opening trades all hog products were a

proprietress was entirely destroyed by Are Thursday morning at 9 The fire started in one of the lower room and In twenty minutes the building was nothing but a heap of ashes Two babies were asleep In' the up par rooms when the fire was discover-ed but were rescued by their half-crazed mothers and no lived were lost which is considered almost a miracle as there were about twenty-five people staying at the hotel The guests departed for their respective homes with only the clothing they were wearing at the time of the fire The building was an old frame structure with but little protection against fire The guests lost many valuables and several found they had left thler purses behind them in their flight £lss Beatrice Plerrle of 168 North Limestone street was one of the nests and arrived in Lexington hursday evening another was Miss Abbie Dailey of Pemberton avenue A LEADER reporter called to see Miss Plerrle Friday morning and learned the particulars of the fire from her She is of the opinion that ignition took from the escape of natural gas out of Imperfect fixtures and pipes At almost anytime she said one could detect the odor of gas when entering a room or going out into the halls but as all windows were left open constantly they did not consider it sufficient to be injurious This would seem to account for the being consumed in so short a time Miss Plerrle and several other guests had gone for a walk to Hazel Green and finding the hotel was burning ran back as fast as possible only to see the building fall in ruins She lost her gold watch and several other pieces of JeWelry and every article of wearing apparel she had taken to tht springs except a' rainy day costume she wore for the walk to Hazel Green A Miss Shankltn of Mayslick had the largest loss of clothes jewels and money Mrs Smith the proprietress has a home in Hazel Green to which she and her family went Swango Springs had had quite a successful season and she was expecting a large number of guests for the remainder of the fall season who now of course could not find a place to stay as the hotel was the only available building NOTESTRONT IRAK The Executive Committee of Transylvania
