CH1CAQO, Aug. 18. Now high records
for the season wero made In 'tho corn
pit today after a weak opening. The
close showed a net advance ot &ftc.
Wheat closed a shade to Hiilic net lower,
oats finished o to U&ftc up at net
higher prices for the year and provisions
martn a net coin of 7VsiM2V,c.
Bull leaders took command soon after
the corn market opened and thereafter
dominated the clt. Rains In the drouth-
strluKen southwest and easier . cables
caused a weak opening ot which Influen
tial purchasers promptly look advantage.
Shorts were eager buyers also and prices
rallied, Then came a temporary reaction,
hut the bulls started such a rush of buy
ing that prices were quickly carried up
ward to high marks for the year, May,
September and December options. A de
crease of LG3S.000 bushels In the world'B
visible supply and prediction of dry, hot
weather In the near future seemed to be
among tho chief factors animating bull
sentlmenC
Enormous Increases for the day 2,060,000
uusneis gave some sireiigin io mac mar
Vnt after early weakness, the opening be'
lne depressed by easier cables and large
world's shipments. The strength of the
corn market also helped give firmness
to wheat and gcod cash demand was an
additional uplifting influence. Demand
fell off late in the session and the mar
ket closed easy.
After an easy opening oats advanced to
Its new high mark ot good speculative
buying. Light run of hogs at the yards
advanced provisions. There was a good
Investment demand for January options

NEW YORK JMCK MARKET
Advance in All Quarters of List Dur
ing Early Part of Session.
SUPPLY APPEARS TO BE SCANT
In Spite of Improving Tendency,
Traders Not Inclined to VoU
loir Up the Market
on the Illse.
NEW YORK. Aur. 18.-On a comtsara-
tlvely small nmouttl .of buying stocks ad
vanced In i)ll quarters ot the Hit during
the fore part of today's session. Tho
supply appeared to bo scant, nnd under
the lead of the coppers and grangers tho
market forged ahead easily. In addition
to the standard Issuos, tho oil and elec
tric stocks made substantial gains.
In spite of the improving tendency,
traders were not inclined to follow up
the market advance. Profit taking, to
gethcr with some renewod bear selling,
cut Into the day's gains, bringing back
? rices In some cases to the opening lovcl.
n the final dealings quotations were
lifted again and at tho cloes fell short or
the day's high figures.
Reports ot rain In sections where crops
have been Buttering severely from drouth
constituted the principal factor In the
day's rise.
There was a slightly easier tendency In
the money market during tho crop mov.
lng season was an influence In stimulat
ing bullish sentiment. In tho same cate
gory of favorable factors was tho report
of exports ot domeBtlo products for July,
showing a total ot 847,739,000, compared
with 31,018,000 last year.
Wells Fargo express made a further
decline, dropping nearly ton points, a net
local record. In 1893 this stock sold
ot 670.
Bonds becamo Irregular after an early
show ot firmness. Total sales, par value,
8940,009.
United States bonds wero unchanged

GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Aug. lA-Tony
Fleischer, flieman, ugeil 26 years, was
killed and nbout 870,000 worth of property
was destroyed In a fire yesterday, which
At ono time threatened to traverse tho
heart ot tho railroad suction and cut a wldo
path through the city. Two favorabto
conditions aided the department In keep
ing tho firo confined to tho livery barn
In which it started nnd the adjacent lum
ber yard and planing mill ot tho Gcer
Harrlson company. Ono was a south
west wind blowing toward tho wldo
stretch of railroad tracks Instead of to
ward tho city, The other was tho city's
bountiful supply of water and flno pres
sure. Six streams wore nt ono time play
ing on tho fire, all of strong force. Tony
Fleischer was tho only support of a wid
owed mother.
llent Melts Wire.
He was directing one of tho streams
of water on tho fire at the planing mill,
with a position In tho alley. Tho heat
of tho flamos from the livery stable
melted a wlro of tho a rand Island Elec
tric company, the wire being charged
with 2,300 volts, and it dropped down on
the fireman, coming Into contact with .
the nozzle. Bluo flames shot from tho
norxlo as from a fountain The fireman
fell. Tho nozzle lay under him. Chief
Dillon and Former Councilman E. Vlressr.
pulled him nway.
Physicians ordored the man removed:
from tho alloy, where several electrical
workers wero trying to revive him and
worked about him, In a nearbv yard,
under tho shada ot trees, for several
hours without success.
Starts In Hayloft.
Tho flro originated In tne hayloft of the
Black & Rhodes livery stable,. about 10:30
a. tn. Rhodes was at tho telephone
ordorlng a blacksmith to come to the
barn for cortaln repairs on a vehicle.
Four young men were sitting about In
tho barn. They smelted smoko. Looking -
back to the section where the horses
wero they saw flro dropping down from
tho upper floor. They cried out an
alarm, and rushed to the relcusc ot tha
horses. There wero about thirty animals
In tho barn, and all but twelve ware re
leased. Somo ot them, however. Are
badly burned. Twelve at least, perished.
Mr. Rhodes, himself, released one ani
mal, led It to tho street and felt con- '
fident that he could save the rest When '
he turned to get tho second animal, tha
entire mlddlo and rear sections was ono.
body of flro.
ICverythlnir Like Tinder.
The Intense heut of' the lost three
weeks had made everything as dry on
tinder. Tho department loft IU head
quarters beforo a regulation alarm
reached It, but before Its first hose had
been laid over ono-halt ot tho big oid "
tramn building was a solid body ot flro.
Tho flames lapped over upon a houso
owned by E. Miner, to tho northwest, and
to the Geer-Harrlson planing mills and
lumber yards to the north. The former
was saved and perhaps prevented tho
tiro from crossing tho street and taklnc
another largo frame building, In which k
enso tho big bridge bwned by the Donald
company, wholesale grocers, and tho
Union raclflc freight dopartment would
havo been In tho path ot tho fire.
The Union Pnclflo shops blew the gen-
era! alarm, and the road's fire fighting
organization aUed In preventing the flro
from communicating to the long line of
unloading platforms, A long string oC
freight cars was also pulled out of dan-
gar.

By the tlmo tho ftifxlltary hose com
panies had reinforced the regular depart
ment the Goer-Harrison yards were afire. ,
and tho big two-story planing mill, con
taining 810,000 worth of machinery and ' '
equipment, was all aflame. Only two
sheds at tha extreme east of the halt
block of yardage, containing unfinished
and bridge lumber, were saved. Bo great
was the pressure that a rour-lnch water
main In front of tho cltr boil building
burst, the water forcing through, ten feet '
of earth and the brick paving with its
cement base. Workmen at onco were set
to the task of excavating, and it Is ex
pected that the main will bo repaired be-4
fore morning.
The principal losses, estimated, are '
Geer-Harrlson company, loss 156,000, in
surance 825,000; Black & Rhodes, livery

tria wiring and damsgo to household

Steps are already under consideration
by Mayor Ryan and other citizens in the
