A prairie fire started several miles east of

There was a fatal rear end collision on the
St. Louis and ban Francisco Railway near
North View, 11L, Friday. Seven cars were
dumped down an embankment and fonr men
dangerously hurt. Engineer Savage, of the
rear train, suffered a bad fracture of the skull,
and will not live. The other men injured are
William Dwrer, fireman; Mike Murphy, an en
gineer; Tom Sawyer and Ed Cartwnght, brake
men. One of the most daring robberies ever
known was perpetrated at Elizabeth, N. J.,
early yesterday morning. The house of Mrs.
James Boss, corner of Niles street and Second
avenue, was entered by burglars, who used
extraordinary means to effect their end. The
entire houehold of four persons were chloro
formed, and the bouse was looted from cellar

cles to the value of $2,000 were stolen. Tho

A nnmber of Milwaukee, Cleveland and
Marquette capitalists have combined for the
purpose of diviamg the iron Bessemer ores
with the schleismger syndicate, and will erect
large furnace in Marquette to reduce their
own ores. It is proposed to utilize the labor of
the convicts in the Marquette penitentiary.
The prison is located on the bay, and by using
the convicts in manufacturing coke the pro
moters of the plan think they can produce pig
iron as cheaply as it is produced in Birming
ham, Ala. The company has an option on a
number of mines near Xegaunee and Isbpcm
ing. The grand jury of San Joaquin county,
CaL, has presented its final report concerning
the case of Deputy United States Marshal
Is'aclc. The report says the facts show that the
killing of the late Jndge Terry was intentional
and deliberate, and that, while the Constitution
and laws of the State require that a crime
against its laws should be tried thereunder, the
accused was taken from the power of the State
hytf scess emanating from the United States
lirni f-it, Tho rannrt nnt Innac 'Phi
United States Circuit Court has decided that I
Nagle cannot be tried by a State court, essen
tially for a like want of jurisdiction, from
which it is fair to conclude he cannot be tried
in any court."
For the first time since the week following
the May panic of 1SS4, tho New York bank
statement published shows the reserve held to
be less than the 23 per cent of deposits required
by the national banking law. The deposits
amount to $112,273,800, against which only
S10MOM00 is held in reserve. The deficit is
S1,66!!,OjO, as the legal requirement is J108,6U8,.
450. A year ago, with almost exactly tb- so
amount of deposits, the banks hi)f j ...iplus
over the legal requirements of $lM17,&Da The
deficit is almost wholly caused by the drain of
monev to the West and Boutb, where over
$6,000,000 was shlppod last week, and almost as
mucn went in tne weeKS just preceaing.
Charles Bseson, private policeman at the
Union depot at Louisville, died from wounds re
ceived at the hand of Peter Nicholson, last
Tuesday evening. Nicholson was at the depot
with his hack for the incoming train. He was
Intoxicated and was ordered from the depot by
Beeson for using very improper lamruare.
Nicholson, instead of going, jumped down from
the box and began firing at the policeman, the
fatal ball entering just above the groin, and
passing through the body, ooming out between
the hip and spinal column. Nicholson, who
was arrested for malicious shooting, is now
charged with murder.
The Department of State has received no
further information concerning the recent riots
on the island of Navassa. in the Cambbean
Sea. Navassa Island is classed by the Depart
ment of State as a cnano island, and, having
been discovered by Americans, is adjudged to
be within the authority of the United States as
the Revised Statutes, section 5,676, provides
that all acts done and offenses or crimes com
mitted on euano Islands discovered by Ameri
cans by persons who may land thereon, or in
the waters adjacent thereto, shall be deemed
as committed on the high seas on board of ves
sels, and shall be punished according to the
laws of the United States relative to such ships
and such vessels.
William P. Rogers, the general agent for
Missouri and Kansas of the Eqnitable Insur
ance Company, of Iowa, was shot by a footpad
in front of his home in Kansas City and dan
gerously wounded. Mr. Rogers was returning
home and was not more than a dozen paces
from his door when one of two men, whom he
had noticed leaning idly against a fence as he
was passing, seized him by the arms, bending
them backward, while the other thrust a pistol
in nis lace, xne latter demanded his money.
Mr. Rogers tore the man from behind him and
tore aside the pistol held by the man in front.
Both the robbers then stepped aside and one of
them discharged his pistol, it being neld so close
to Mr. Rogers' -ta.ee that all the left side was
badly powder-burned.

Selection.
This department will bo open during the
months of October, November and December
only, making it an exclusive HOLIDAY DIS
PLAY. No goods sold after January 1, but
willagainbeopen the following October. By
this arrangement we will-be enabled to make a

pense, and unsatisfactory returns. This de
partment will be On second floor, with a front
entrance.
Regarding prices on the ware, we can assure
you they will be lower than ever before, and,
as such prices will bf very close, no reductions
sales will be made during theEntire Season.
This statement we make on account of the
customary habit among some of our merchants
in closing out their goods at a big sacrifice
price prior to Christmas and New Year's Day,
thns making it rather unpleasant for those who
bought belorehand. We hope to have your
patronage. Very respectfully.

THE SHOE QUESTION
has been satisfactorily answered by Kaufmanns. Their large trade
proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that their goods are the best
and their prices the lowest It stands to reason that other Shoe
stores, who buy in small quantities and on long terms of credit,
cannot compete with the enterprising Kaufmanns'. Many thousands
of dollars are saved annually by those who are shrewd enough to
buy their own and their families Shoe supplies at this Mammoth
Outfitting Establishment.

THE HAT PROBLEM
has been solved by Kaufmanns. They have shown to the world
that a fancy label or name pasted inside of a Hat, while they may
form sufficient reason in the eyes of the "tony" dealers for an extra
charge of several dollars, does not really determine its quality. In
substantiation of this claim we simply show our $3 Derbys sold by
the exclusive hatters at $5, or our superfine $s Silk. Hats which
other. dealers ask $8 for. The qualities, shapes and styles are pre
cisely the same, but then we don't paste any English labels in our
Hats, "don't you know."
