John B. Ijyon Absorbs Mure Than Ho

CHICAGO. HI. , Feb. 10. [ Special Tolu-
pram to the BEE.J It Is said on 'change that
John B. Lyons has again experienced the
disaster which Is bound to result from bull-
Inn wheat when the market is going down.
He has been n bull for months , nnd has
loaded up heavily. lie began being called
for margins over ten days ago. and for a
while responded , but yesterday nnd to-day , It
is said , these calls were met with orders to
sell the wheat. This accounts for the enor
mous quantities thrown on the market.
Nobody seems to know how much wheat
Lyon had , but all place the figures way tip in
the hundreds of thousands. Until to-day
Mr. Lyon has been here , but to-day was not
on the floor , nor could ho bo found In the
surrounding olllcos. Mr. J. Wallon Miller
was asked If. the onlorccd sell-out mlsht not
be clmrncterizcd ns a liiilure. Ho r en lied by
nsking mo : "Have you nny trades with
him ? if not , I have nothing to say. "
Lyon Is understood to have been
heavily intetested in wheat in transit , and
there nro said to bo few brokers who had not
bought for him. Lane quantities at times
liavo- been transferred to "Hutch. " It is
Imrdly necessary to say that Mr. Lyon's old
time specialty was coiners. Ho will'go down
in history as having been tlm cliiet engineer
ofbomoof thogicatcst celebrated ones ever
worked. He lias been behind probably over
half a doen , the most noted of which was the
treat corn corner of ton years ago. His
losses nnd those sustained by houses having
stuff sold to him will bo enormous In the ag
gregate. but fro far ns known at present no
ono else has been pulled down with him. Mr.
Lyon wires his paitnor , Mr. Hlcp , that ho will
be hero Saturday morning and pay over" dollar
lar ho owes.

then called to Bullock to como over.
"You made that dent when you struck

W indsor hotel in this city. After run
uing up a bill amounting to $18 at tin
house , lie claimed to have no cash , bu
on presentation of his bill lie spoke of t
draft in his possession amounting to
? r9 50 , which ho Hashed but never al
lowed any one to scrutinize very cl'vsely.
Upon the strength of this supposed dratl
he induced a guest of the ! iouo to ad
vance $ ! ! 0 , saying that ho would have il
cashed immediately upon the opening ol
the banks on the next morning , i'hc
draft was given as security , nnd on the
next tr.orning the said Livingstone
obtain permission of the draft with the
avowed intention of cashing Iho snine ,
His movements wore rather slow in ( Mi
direction nnd the gentlemen by whom
the money had been advanced requested
a sight of the paper , having only casuallj
glaced at it before. Close examination
revealed the fact tiiat it was simply n
sight draft upon n country merchant
named Slmms ami not negotiable. 'J he
beat refused to put the draft in the bank
for collection and retained possession ol
it. Before any steps could be taken in thu
matter Livingstone had worked someone
for a $ J5 loan and fled thu town leaving
his total bill unpaid nud the generous
guest out of pocket just $30. Ho is
supposed to liuvo gone to Missouri. A
warm welcome , is assured him in Omaha

Sr.WAun , Nob. , Feb. 1) ) . [ Correspond
ence of thu BIE. : ] At the meeting of tlio
Fine Stock Breeders' association , after
the reading of Br. Billing's paper , the as
sociation resolved itself into a committee
of the whole for general discussion. Very
favorable comment was made on Doctor
Billing's views by the majority of those
present. They were , however , consider
ed somewhat impracticable in regard to
the prevention and cure of hog cholera
suggested. This disease beine most
common and particularly fatal toNcbras-
ka stock , received earnest discussion.
Mr. Wolf and others were
decidedly of the opinion that
there was some underlying cause
for this cholera not yet understood , and
tliat the paper read did not throw suf
ficient light on thu subject. Air. Wolfe
argued that ic could not , or rather had
not been , explained why two swine
equally exposed , ono should die and the
other should not bo sick , or why two
herds not exposed nt all , tlio one should
nave cholera and tlio other not. Dr.
Billing claims that cholera will not break
out in a herd without that herd having
been exposed in some way.
Tbe discussion liually turned to the
bill now beloro the legislature
in regard to _ establishing a
school of veterinary surgery.
This brought out some very plain talk.
They all agreed that a government
school should bo established and carried
on by and under special legislation of tbe
general government. That a school of
the proportion contemplated by the bill
is entirely inadequate to give competent
training.
Colonel Savage said ho would oppose
bill the " " " "
