SOUTH SIDE NEWS.
Business Men Thinking About Employing
Detectives to Hunt Down the Burg
lars Who Are Operating Here.
In . view of the large number of
small burglaries that have occurred on
the South Side and in Minooka recently,
there Is a sentiment quite strong among
the business men to engage detectives
and hunt down the criminals. It is far
from the minds of the business men to
criticize the police; on the contrary,
Lieutenant Zang and the officers under
him are complimented for the efficient
work they do. It is impossible with the
force at hand to patrol such large ter
ritory as the South Side is as It should
be done.
It would take a policeman on every
block to detect the persons who somo
.tlmes do the housebreaking. Tho gen
eral opinion Is, that a gang of young
rowdies in both places are the guilty
oncw and that no professional cracks
men arv engaged in the work. These
young men ore familiar with the ground
and the people, and, therefore, they are'
able to prepare their plan3 the bsst
to escape detection. 'Arrests are likely
to follow the act committed at Jnm
Gibbons' shop on Blrney avenue Sun
da jj morning, . t" ! -."

MARKETS AND STOCKS
' Wall Street Review.
New York, Aug. 4. In the first fifteen
minutes of business at the Stock Ex
change the market was active and ex
cited. Prices dropped anywhere from
1 to 3 per cent, under heavy offerings
for both accounts. The demoralization
was due to the announcement of the
failure of Moore Bros", of Chicago. The
firm had ben Intimately connected with
the Diamond Match company and the
New York 'Biscuit company anij their
suspension was a great suvprtse here.
The r?port that the liabilities of the
concern were I20.W0.OOO was not gener
ally credited. New York has had vtry
little Interest in the shares of the Dia
mond Match company, which. It Is un
derstood, brought about the embar
rassment of the Btoores and after the
break at the opening In the western rail
road and Industrial Issues, local opera
tors were inclined to take a calmer
view of the situation. The failure will
undoubtedly have some Influence on the
money market later on and to this ex
tent it will be reflected in Btocks. Tod-ay
call loans were worth 334 per
cent,- at one time, but near the close
borrowers were accommodated at lMs2
per cent. In time loans bankers hava
raised their rates to 64 per cent, and
the commercial paper market Is decid
edly Btlffer. In the break at the open
ing the Clangers, the Industrials and
other Issues which are traded in by
western operators suffered the heaviest
losses. Later on It was reported from
Chicago that a movement was on foot
to protect Diamond Match Btock and
this checked the selling movement at
the local board. Near the close the
early sellers attempted to cover and
the prominent Issues rallied to 2
per cent. Sepculation closed firmer In
tone. . Net changes, however, show
losses'-of i92Vj per cent. Total sales
were tinly 185,112 shares.
