Shrieks of Suffering Human Victims ,
Together With Cries of Frightened
Animals , Created a Dabcl for Time
, Being Many Hurt.
* ' Durum ! , Mich. , Aug. 7. Siioclnl to
f . The NOWH : Twenty-one persons
, „ - klllotl outright , seven fatally Injured
J nud 'thirteen badly hurt , u number of
I vuluuble unimulH itlllod and a loss of
* , ° property which will force the Wai-
j v f luco circus to go out of biiHlnosH , Is
\ v the terrible result of a bad collision
° . between two sections of the show
truliiH here this morning.
The immense circus trains , carry
ing workmen , inanagorH and perform
ers , together with property and me-
lingerie aninmlH , came together bee -
o cause the air brakes refused to set.

STOCKS 8HOW SOME GAIN.
After Opening Dip the Market Has a
Substantial Rally.
Now York , Aug. 7. Following a
weak , almost panicky , opening the
Btock market suddenly reversed its
course , substantial gains being regis
tered by pructlcully all the better
class of securities. The average of
now advances were about 2 per cent.
In some Instances gains wore Greater.
The change ol front wus doubtless duo
to soverul reasons , the most potent of
which apparently \vas the "good" buy
ing , which seemed to emanate from
high quarters. There is litt'o doubt
that stocks were purchased frosty by
insiders , by banking houses und
wealthy individuals because they
seemed cheap. No justification could
be found for the report indusii-oiia/ ;
circulated that the Vanderbll'i , Rjvl.--
feller and others , with tnelr ho U ol
followers , had entered upon a plan to
lift prices. As a matter of fact no
little part of the improvement wus un
doubtedly duo to extensive covering ,
many on the short sldo regarding tha
market as being very much oversold.
% Dcsplto the marked Improvement , fur
ther talk of trouble and probable fail
ures was heard on every sldo almost
to the close , which was really buoy
ant. Reports current in trustworthy cir
cles suggest that several firms nnd in
dividuals whose affairs were found to
bo in bad shape have been permitted
to make private settlements , thus sav
ing themselves such sacrifices as
would have been made had their hold
ings been thrown upon the market.
The day's business was slightly less
than 1,000,000 shares.

formed the Vatican olllclals that ho
wishes to be received on the threshold
of the basilica by Cardinal Kampolla ,
who as archprlest of the church , will
address the formal greetings to him.
At the cgneluslon of the ceremony the
pope will confer his blessing upon the
people , but It line not ytit been docldril
whether ho will do so lusldo the
church or from the balcony looking
out upon the plu/v.u , where many hoped
ho would bestow his benediction on
the day of his election. It Is said thai
Plus X Is In favor of the latter plan ,
but the Inllnence of the Vatican olll-
clals Is against It on the ground that
it might bo Interpreted as a recofinl
tlon of the present stnto of affairs In

fer the red hat on Cardinals AJutl ,
Tallanl , Katschtaler and Herrcro y
Esplnosu , who wore raised from the
purple Juno 25 , but who huvo not re
ceived those symbols of rank because
of the illness and death of Leo. It Is
believed that the Spanish cardinal ,
Herrcro , will not be nblo to bo present
at the coronation ceremonies.
