WEST SIDE EVENTS.
Ninth Street Young Man Causes Excite
ment by Declaring That He Was
Poisoned by His Stepfather.
"ThWs two poople down on Ninth
Street that's bei-n poisoned by eatint?
cabbage," was the startling sentence
thrust at Lieutenant Williams last
night bjr a siured-looking: young man.
The young- man escorted the ottk-er'
down to the bilek house on the street
named, where u young nmn was found
with his hands on his vest and a con
tortion on his faee. The young man's
name Is Nealis and he is a son of Sirs.
Blaine, who has married ut least three
times. Her present husband Is George
Uluine, and young N'eulis would have
the officer believe that Blaine poisoned
the cabbage.
"Why?" usked the Lieutenant.
"Because lie didn't want mother and
me to eat the same thing as he docs,"
was Walls' explanation. Mis. lilaine
was found in Kelley's patch, but when
asked about the poisoning: she cluimed
that she knew nothing of It.
The officers gave up the case In dis
gust satisfied that .Walls was the vic
tim of a too vivid imagination.

Hole Appears in Asphalt on Penn
Avenue .Near Linden Street.
A round patch of pavement about a

done underneath this part of the pave

tho theory was adopted that the depres
sion resulted from a cavo-ln of tho

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
New York, July 20. Stocks were weak
and at times demoralized today. New
low records were established for some
of the leading railway and Industrial
Issues and the feeling was decidedly
blue, especially during the early trad
ing. The opening wus weak owing to
the receipt of lower cables from ..on
don, but later on foreign houses turned
buyers of St. Paul, Louisville and Nash
ville and other international favorites,
their purchase may be added has no In
fluence and local traders supplied till
foreign bids right up to the close of the
London market. Liquidation for home
account was again heavy and the bears,
emboldened by their recent successes
hammered away at the list with re
newed vigor. Gold engagements to the
extent of over three millions for export
to Europe tomorrow proved disastrous
to bull hopes right at the start and the
engagements were accompanied by rum
ors of equally heavy shipments on
Thursday. Weak holders lost no time
in getting out. Under this process
prices dropped anywhere from a to B',4
per cent. Sugar fell 2 to 101, tobacco
2 to f.", Burlington and Qulncy 6 to
U2i, Chicago gas 3i to 4!ii, St. Paul
Sys to 67i, Rock Island 414 to M'i. Con
solidated gas 4-j to 140, Lake Erie and
Western preferred 4 to B0, Louisville
and Nashville 2i to 44H. Manhattan 1
to 924, Kansas and Texas preferred U
to 1U, Missouri Pacific 2 to iri's, New
York Central 24 to SO',!., leather pre
ferred 5',i to 44, Tennessee coal 12Ts to
13, Wabash preferred to 13, Western
Vnion 1H to 77 and Wheeling and Lake
Erie preferred 31 to 25. Around one
o'clock rumors were current that the
leading bankers were endeavoring to
effect a combination to turn In a round
sum of gold Into the sub-treasury. The
report had a tendency to spread liqui
dations, but when J. Pierpont Morgan
was quoted as saying that he had no
knowledge of any conference the bears
made a fresh demonstration against
the list. At this time the Grangers,
Sugor and Chicago gus were fired to
the lowest figures yet reached since the
current bear campaign was Inaugurat
ed. Just previous to the close it devel
oped that F. D. Tappen, president of the
Gallatin National bank, had an Infor
mal talk with a number of bank presi
dents and that a number of the strong
est banks were willing to enter a com
bination to protect the treasury gold re
serve. Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan ulso
stated that In his opinion the adminis
tration would have no dllflculty in sell
ing bonds In case it wanted to. These
developments exerted a favorable in
fluence and in the final transactions the
market ruled steadier. Net changes
show losses of Vii to 3 per cent, outside
of leuther preferred, which lost five per
cent. Total sales w ere 3S,2sS shares.
