ChlcnRO, June 14. Yesterday was n,
day of excitement and wild rumors In
the ClilcaRO wheat pit. A reverse that
looks like a Waterloo has come to the
"Younff Napoleon of Finance," Joseph
Lelter.
At first there was a wild tumble of
prices on the board, July wheat selling
11 cents from Saturday's close, while
September lost 4 cents and Decem
ber S?8 cents, but all made a little re
covery before the close. It was given
out that I.elter bad ordered bis deals
all closed, and that the selling rush
was the result of the execution of this
order, accompanied as It was by n
flood of rumors concerning the sta
bility of the ble bull movement wblrh
for months hns been the Important
factor In board of trade dealings. On
of these rumors was that Lelter had
been deserted by some of his assist
ants In the campaign. In the mean
time Lelter's wheat was being tumbled
overboard and prices had become de
moralized. Later In the day Lelter made no at
tempt to conceal the fact that he had
sold out all his holdings In futures
probably 0,000,000 or 8,000,000 bushels.
It came out that he had transferred
most of his trades In futures to other
wpM known houses, and that thi-y
were pretty well protected by margins.
bo that whatever losses there were
would fall upon Lelter. Ills cash wheat,
one report said, was transferred to Ar
mcwr, but a later story was that It
would be "trusteed" and handled In
such a way as to prevent the slump
which would be Inevitable If It were all
thrown on the market at once. Before
the final close the panic partially sub
sided, and July reacted 4 cents, Sep
tember selling up l?i, and December
making 2 cents rally, selling a shade
above September, where It was 1 cent
umhjr Saturday.
None of the principals In the Lelter
crisis Is willing to discuss the causes
which led to his abdication, and the
most plausible explanation that can be
offered at this time Is therefore clr
cumstantial and speculative. The first
Indication of approaching dissolution
In the Lelter regime came In the
morning, when the announcement was
made that all his cash and June wheat
had been transferred by Allen, Greer &
Zellar, Lelter's brokers, to Philip D.
Armour, and that the September op
tlon, of which Lelter was a heavy
hoUVr, had been transferred to Lam
son Brothers. These reported transac
tions gave rise to conjectures that soon
developed Into a panic. At the outset
It was rumored that Lelter was trying
to get out of the market, but the fuct
that Allen, Greer & Zollar had trans
ferred their trades to Lamson Brothers.
Instead of selling out directly, aroused
the suspicion that Lelter was hard
pressed and was endeavoring to dispose
of his Immense holdings without dis
closing the causes of his sudden with
drawal from the pit.
At the close of business Saturday
millions of bushels of September wheat
"puts" were sold In the vicinity of 72' 1
cents, Lamson Brothers apparently
having large orders for this line.
Shortly before the opening of the board
of trade yesterday brokers supposed to
be acting for Lelter were ready sellers.
The put price was speedily reached,
and Lelter, If the Lamsons wore actlnr.
for him, was enabled to dispose of
millions of wheat on the sale of puts,
whereas If the actual wheat had been
sold In the market there would have
been even a more severe break.
It Is estimated that during the dau
from 8.000.000 to 10.000.000 bushels of
Lelter wheat, optional and visible, wen1
sold to the account of tho "Young Na
poleon." This Is supposed to have
consisted chiefly of options In Septem
ber. July and June wheat stored In
Minneapolis, St. Paul, Duluth and Chi
cago. It was reported during tho da.
that L. 55. Lelter, when asked by hi'
son for more money, had refused to be
drawn further Into the wheat deal, and
thus compel. ed the latter to let go ,1
lurt;p lino of his holdings In order to
satl. fy his warehouse creditors and
marginal demands.
Mr. Lei'er's friends insist that he haa
not madi- an assignment, but it waa
admitted that the Lelter Interests had
been "trusteed."
Remarkable Rescue.
Mrs. Michael Curtain, l'lainfielil, 111.,
makes llic statement, that she caught cold,
which settled on her lungs; she was treated
for a month by her family physician, but grew
worse. He told her she was a hopeless vic
tim of consumption anil that 110 medicine
could cure her. Her druggist suggested Dr.
King's New Discovery for consumption ; she
bought a bottle and to her delight found her
self benefitted from first dose. She comlinued
its use and after taking six bottles, found her
self sound and well ; now does her own
housework, and is as well as she ever was.

ment for thf reason that the time for
serrery was now past, as the scout
boats had made sure that the path was
clear before It and that no possible
menace could come from the Spanish
ships or troops, even should the enemy
know that our forces were now advanc
ing against them. With he expedi
tion off, oitlclals here feel that there
will be a period of comparative Inaction
for a few days.
Hy Thursday, at the latest, the trans
ports will be off Santiago, and a large
American army will make Its landing
on Cuban soil. Admiral Sampson has
cleared the way for this undertaking.
and little danger Is apprehended In get
ting ashore. It will be after that, when
the advance Is made, that the actual
dramatic developments may be ex
pected. By that time It Is likely the
American commanders will be In di
rect cable communication with the au
thorities here. Admiral Sampson has
taken the shore end of the cable land
ing at Ouantanamn, and a force of
cable experts are rapidly restoring the
line to working order. The progress of
this work has been so satisfactory that
one of the leading officials of the state
department said last night that it was
hoped that direct cable communication
would be established by Thursday. It
will put an end to the dearth of official
Information concerning Important
movements, and will enable the au
thorities to keep In closo touch with
those executing the strategic move
ments. Aside from the men and officers mak
ing up the expedition, tln boats carried
a vast quantity of supplies, ammuni
tion and war ecpjlpments, necessary
to maintain an organization of this size
for at least GO days.
Every detail for the landing of the
party has been worked out by the
engineer corps of the army. It will
be a laborious process at best, and It
will take a full day or more. The point
of landing has been so chosen that
there Is little danger of an Interruption
from th" Hpanish forces, but should
they attempt to make trouble Admiral
Sampson's ships will Insure ample pro
tection until the troops can care for
themselves.
The Spanish Cadiz fleet Is almost as
much of a mystery to the naval officers
here ns wns Admiral Cervera's flying
squadron during tho two weeks Im
mediately preceding Its Inglorious bot
tling up at Santiago. Yesterday a re
port came that the squadron was unfit
for sen. That would have been credit
ed, exrept that the department has had
Information ns late as Saturday to th
effect that the squadron was all ready
for sen and was about to depart. About
a week In tore that It had been told
that tho Cadiz fleet had sailed. Having
in mind these conflicting reports, the
war board scarcely knows where to
give credence, though It would seem
to be an extraordinary circumstance
that the least doubt could exist as to
the presence in or absence from the
harbor of a populous city such as Cadiz
of a whole squadron of warships. How -ever,
the weight of opinion seems to
Incline to the presenco of the fleet at
Cadiz, owintr to the bad condition of
the ships. Hyt the war board Is tak
Ing no unnecessary chances of a sur
prlFe, and by means of scouts hns pro
vided for si eurlntr timely warning of
the npfiroaeh of any hostllo ship.
The news of the ttack by the Span
lards upon the United States marine
at Guantanamo bay Saturday night
was not confirmed by official advice"
up to the close of the day. Ilowevei
there Is no disposition to question tin
accuracy of the press report, and lie
news has had rather a sobering el

upon rushing troops forward regardl'

night's action shows that the Spanli li
are not afraid to charge boldly upon
United States troops, and the prospect
of a bushwhacking warfare disclosed by
the Spanish movements are any I bin:
but agreenlile tu the persons who hav
been hoping for a short cnmpalgn. A
good denl of surprise Is expressud at
the failure of tho report to mention au

New York. June 14. Tommy nyan,
of Syrucuse. met and easily defeated
Tommy West, of this city, last night
in the 11th round ot a 20 round contest
for the welterweight championship -if
the world. Uyan outfought his man at
every point, and might have ended the
contest much more quickly hud he
cared to. West was game to the core,
and took an awful lot of hammering.
The referee, Charley White, let the
bout go as far as humanity would per
mit, and when at lust he sent the men
to their corners and awarded the hon
ors to Hyan there was general satisfac
tion among the spectators.

The artist who is in search

see through the walls
into tens of thousands
of homes all over this
land, he would see
women undergoing
tortures in silence
without complaining.
before which the
brief ordeals of the
martyrs pale into
nothingness.
No one but a
woman can tell
the story of the
suffering, the
desnair. and the
despondency endured by women who
carry a daily burden of ill-health and pain
because of disorders and derangement of
the delicate und important organs that are
distinctly feminine. One of the worst
effects of troubles of this kind is upon the
nervous system. The tortures so bravely
endured completely aud effectually shatter
the nerves. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription is an unfailing cure for all weak
ucss and disease of the feminine organ
ism. It makes It strong and healthy. It
allays inflammation, henlu ulceration and
soothes pain. It checks exhausting drains
and tones and builds up the nerves. It
fits for wifehood and motherhood. Good
medicine dealers sell it, and have nothing
"just as good."
" Since my last child was boru, thirteen years
ago, I have suffered from uteriue trouhle,"
writes Mrs. Paul Devralue, of Jellico, Campbell
Co, Teun. "I consulted sei.ral doctors and
took much medicine, Imt fouud no relief. I had
very bad health for twelve years. Every mouth
I was in bed a week before the monthly period
and a week after I was nh1tjed to keep In tied
for four muiitlm last summer. I was just like
a corpse. I lost twenty-hue pounds in four
months X was coughing so much I wat, con
sidered In consumption. I suffered severely
from palus in my back, bearing down pains in
the womb, chills and cold sweats. Aller taking
four bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery uiy coughing stopped, and after six
liottlea of l)r Pierce's Favorite l'rrlptlon my
periods became regular aud ware passed with
out pain. Now I am fleshy, more so 'than
ever liefore. My neighbors are surprised to see
me In such good health after having seen me
so low."
Constipation causes and aggravates many
serious diseases. It ia speedily cured by
Dr. Tierce's rieasant Pellets.
