Dynamite was alioweil to lie on a rock within a few fet of the entrance to defend ant's mine fur nearly two months, and pliantiff, who had been employed at the mine for a lew weeks as a shoveler. was injured by an explosion occasioned by an other workman striking the iyn imite. An export testified that dynamite became extra hazardous after it had b en exposed to the weather. Held, that plaintiff could not b held chargeable with a knowledge of the dangerous condition of the uvnunite. and the company was guilty of negligence In exposing the dynamite to the weather ir two months, where employes w. re daily re-paired to pass.

AN INCREASE IN TONNAGE MMHLV 21LOOO I.OADEI1 CARS IIA.N I)l.i;i) AT IMH.WArOLIs. Inrrrane In Pennylvnln .EarnlnR OUlelnl ChanKC Penilln on PeuiiM nnln Ilne AVeat. The train records show that there were received arid forwarded at Indianapolis in the wer.k ending Aug. 3 a total of 27,142 cars. 2:tCfd being loaded, an increase over the preceding week of C07 loaded cars and over the correspondtnir week of 1"X) an in crease of 1,750 loaded cars. The exhibit wouid have been more favorable but for the fact that some lines are already short of cars. While grain cars are in active demand, in other lines of freight there is no falling off with Imlianapolis lines. One of the striking features of the freight situ ation is in the west-bound tonnage, which has been unsually heavy for a month past, in some cases exceeding that of the east bound tonnage, an unprecedented occur rence. This Is due to the larger movement of high-class freights, shipments of fall and winter goods having set in earlier than usual. In staple groceries, such as sugars, coffees, salt and fish, the shipments are large. The low stage of the rivers Is driv ing shipments of the products of steel and iron mills to the railways, and the tonnage of coal coming West is unusually heavy for early August. The east-bound shipments of grain for export via Newport News, Baltimore and Philadelphia have set in heavily, these seemingly being the favorite points for delivering grain for ex port. The movement of dressed meats, live stock and produce is heavier than usual at this season of the year, the dry weather having much to do with the in crease In shipments of live stock. North-at:d-south roads continue to do a good business, miscellaneous in its character. Fruits and vegetables cut an important figure, as such articles are being shipped from longer distances than in any former year. l-e",I business continues very satls- fictory. Nearly every Indianapolis Indus try is shipping more goods than in any former year, and the packing houses and flouring mills are again heavy shippers. Rates are well maintained, and there is but little complaint of car sh'irtaue. unless it be for cars to handle bulky freights stone, lumber and grain.

AN ELECTRICAL SWITCH. Street-Railway Com tin ny I Trylnff an Experiment In Thla City. Curious people have noticed a peculiar looking box attached to an Iron pole at the southeast corner of Illinois and Wash ington streets within the last few lays. but only a few -of them have realized that the box and a few other simple contriv ances form the machinery for an electrical switch that takes the place of the small boy who lias manipulated a long Iron rod at that corner for a long time. The switch was installed about ten days ago on the east track of the Illinois-street line, where the cars turn east, west or run straight north on Illinois street. Op erating the switch is an easy matter and much more reliable than the loy?, who require a road tficer at their heels to com pel them to attend to their duties. The electrical switch is an -xperiment in thi3 city, but it has been used in either large citits for about a year. It was patented by a Pittsburg concern, and if the test In this ity Is satisfactory the local company will use them on the most Important corners. The large box on the iron pole contains a huge mahnet that is connected with the rails at the switch with electrical wires. All that is necessary to operate the switch is for the mot a man to turn his controller gtntly and this causes the magnet to throw the switch to the side of the track d sired. Tne switch is operated so that it will canst the -ars to turn west, east or to run straight on the Illinois-street track. Since it hf.s been in operation it has proved satisfactory. anl it may not b long before the company Installs electrical switches on all the main corntis. THE LIVE STOCK MARKETS CATTLE QUI ET AMI AVITIIOI T QI OT AIJLi: CHANGE IX TRICES. Hog. Opened Quiet, hat Later Became Active? and Lower-Sheep Qnlet Condition of Other Markets. UNION STOCKYARDS. INDIANAPOLIS. Aug. 3. Cattle Receipts, 130; shipments light. The marketing of cattle this week shows a decrease of about S30 compared with last week and an increase of 2,2 over the same- week a year ago and 2.500 over the corresponding week two years ago. Thus far this year there is a gain of nearly 32,00) compared with the same period last year. The market this week opened with unusually liberal receipts, and the trading was quiet, but steady prices were maintained. Later, under the influence of much better shipping demand and a better class of cattle to select from, there was an upturn in prices and on Thursday the strictly fat stock was selling nearly as high as they have at any time heretofore this season. Local establishments were slow in following the advance In prices, and at the close of the week, with consid erably increased supplies and a falling off in the demand from outside sources, there was naturally a reaction in prices. The de cline was variously estimated at 10ti2öc, and most transactions represented a de cline of 15c from the high time in the week. There has been a very indifferent demand for stockers and feeding cattle all week on account of the continued unfavorable weather conditions, and it has been dif ficult to consummate sales, but as a rule salesmen sueeeede! in getting nearly steady prices for all that they, could sell. Dur ing the week native steers sold as high as and most of the fat stock sold between $5 and $5.60, with Texans as high as $4.40. Heifers sold as high as $5, cows. $4.25, bulls $4.25 and calves $5.50. The receipts to-day were a little better than expected at this time In the week, and the quality was equal to the average on Saturday. There were not many buyers on the market, and it was more or lers difficult to transfer the consignments, but Ilnal results did not show a great deal of change in prices, if any, compared with the way equal kinds sold yesterday.

The marketing of hogs this week has been of smaller volume, the total showing a de crease of nearly 5,000. compared with last week: an Increase of over 1.500. compared wdth the same week a year ago, and a de crease of over 6.000 compared with the cor responding week two years age. Thus far this year 53.5 more hogs have been re ceived than in the same period last year. There have been frequent and rather de cided fluctuations in prices this week, but after a bad beginning the market took an upward course and late in the week some of tlie best prices of the season were real ized. The three first days of th week there were no sales reached the $6 mark, but later, under the Influence of strong compe tition between packers and shippers fancy heavy butcher hoqs sold as high as There was rather a scarcity of choice heavy hogs and they sold at a big margin over prices for light weights at ail times. The lowest market of the week was on Monday end the highest yesterday when the average was nearly 2"c higher than the low time. The receipts to-day were about the same as a we-k ago and a little larger than a year ago. On account of the high prices prevailing here yesterday, compared with Kastern markets, there was evidently few shipping orders In the hands of buyers this morning and with considerable reduced competition tbe market of course opened quiet and the bidding was lower. It took some time for buyers and sellers to con centrate their views but finally both were Inclined to be reasonable and a trading basis was established. Saks were generally consbleree 5c lower than the strongest time yesterday, but. compared with yesterday morning. mod dealers claimed there was very little charge to-day. Packers were rather liberal buyers at current prices and a good clearance was made In good season. Sales ranged from $5.05 to Jlo7Vi. and prac tically all the supply sold above $5.75.

The total arrivals of sheep and lambs this week show a decrease of 2" compared with last week, an increase of 1.0)0 com pared with same week a year ago and a decrese of 500 compared with corresponding week two years ago. Thus far this j-ear there is a gain of over 26.(m) compared with the same period last vear. The market the first half of the wek did not show much quotable change and at times there was, if any difference, a little stronger tendency in values. This was principally the result of an Increased demand from local butch ers, and with their support taken from the market later in the week and increased supplies, hippers required concessions in prices. The early part of the week lambs sold as high as $4.s5. but at the close $4.50 was practically the top and decent to good kinds were selling at 54"d4.25. Yearling sheep sold as high as $4. but there were not many sheep selling above $3.50 at the close of the week, and $3-a3-25 bought a very decent to good kind.
