Sealing Steamers Seize!.
Pout Townsend, Wash., July 18.—
The revenue cutter Richard Hush
seized the steamers Alexandria and St.
Paul near the Okormok islands, fifty
miles south of the Kottiaki islands, July
1. The Alexandria had sixteen seals
and the St. Paul six. A lieutenant of
the Rush boarded the St. Paul after
bavins; been on the Alexandria, and the
captain of the former vessel, thinking
lie was under seizure, complained about
the officer not seizing the Alexandria.
lie maae a statement which showed
the modus Vivendi was being violated,
and the lieutenant accordingly seized
both vessels. They were sent to Sitka
with a prize crew.
The Ship Mohican.
San Francisco, July 18. -The news
of the disabling of the war ship Mohican
by a sealer in the Belirin*-; sea is ques
tioned by the sealing men here. Donald
Ross, of the firm of Ross & Hewlett^ the
firm that fitted out the Alexandria, saia
that if the Mohican was fired into it was
by some other vessel than the Alex
andria. On June 1 the Alexandria
was in llokodate. Japan, while the bat
tle with the Mohican is said to have oc
curred on May 25, and the Alexandria
sailed from here in April and had no
cannon on board. From here she went
to Honolulu, and thence to Japan, it Is
said, where she has been ever since.
Ross says it is probable that the Mohican
mistook the Russian gunboat for a
poacher, and when she fired across her
bows she got a shot in return.
TRADE WENT WILD.

Wheat Declines 2 1-2 Cents in an
Hour — Culmination of Bad
News Broke the Market— No
Support Given the Greezy Pro
vision Market. : "
Chicago, July 18.— It was like the
Johnstown flood for a while today in
the wheat trade. The speculators took
fright at the alarming financial report
from both East and West, and let go
their holdings in a way approaching the
panicky. Altogether, it was a day that
left scars, A decline of 2>-5c per bushel
in about an hour wouid be a heavy fall
ing off if the price had been SI instead
of only That was the limit of the
decline, and it closed with a loss since
yesterday of l%c. Corn sympathized
slightly, and is marked down ' 4 c. Pro
visions were in a slumpy condition.
Lard is off 30c and ribs 47, ; 2 'c. The de
cline in pork was 10c. Wjmw fl
Wheat was on new ground and broke
the record for cheapness. September
has not sold before below GS^c, but to
day touched 6633 c. The opening was
about He lower than yesterday's clos
ing, and prices further declined 2' 4 'c
for September and l%c for December,
then rallied lc, eased off and the closing
was %@%c from the bottom. One
small failure occurred, that of C. S.
Lee, who has been bullish on wheat.
There were two distinct spurts in the
selling, and on each the trade went
wild. Yesterday's close was at 69c
seller September. The first drop this
morning was to Q7j*c for September.
After a little rally thy selling broke out
again, and in one minute the Septem
ber went from 67% cto OO.'j'c. lt was
long wheat thrown on the market by
scared holders. On the early break the
selling was largely through commission
houses. On thu second break every
body sold or tried to sail on a badly de
moralized market. On each break there
was good buying of wheat by shorts
who were ready to
Grab at Quick Profits.
While the excitement was on every
one was trying to learn the cause. - No
one piece of news broke the market.
It was the culmination of gathering
heaviness. The financial news yester
day was very bad, yet the market held
up fairly well. This morning New
I'ork stocks were very weak on London
selling. The cable news hinted at some
bad failure as very probable. The
trade had scarcely begun when Denver
reported the failure of the greatest mer
cantile house there. Fort Scott, Kan.,
reported a 1305,000 bank failure. There
were reports of three other Denver
banks closing up. It was at the same
time reported that a grain house had
failed here. Aside from bad financial
news the influences were bearish. The
cables were either indifferent or lower.
The better temperature and showers
over the West were more favorable for
growing crops and harvesting. Chicago
had 42 cars of new wheat aud 11 cars
graded No. 2. The contract wheat in
public houses again Increased 64,000 bu
to a total of nearly 17,000.000 bu.
During the last hour the trade recov
ered from the panicky feeling, some
what. New York raised export sales
from 45 to 00 boat loads. Cash wheat
worked here amounted to about 150,000
bu No. 3 red, and 75,000 bu No. 3 spring.
There was no further adverse finan
cial news.
The corn trade had a much narrower
market than in wheat, yet transactions
were important. The receipts were
close up to the very big estimate at 917
cars, and about 500 cars of contract corn
for the day. The movement for Mon
day appeared on the blackboard at 507,
--000 bu receipts, 160,000 shipments. The
showers over the corn belt helped crop
prospects. Withdrawals for the day
were but 105,000 on.
With Weak Stocks
And weak wheat and selling against
privileges when the price was passed,
the market got a break of %c, but
the estimate for Wednesday was
much lighter at 320 cars. New
York cleared 180,000 bu. Contract
corn in store was reduced 254,
--000 bu for the week to a total of 954,000
bn. The close was at a recovery of . 4 c
from t'.io bottom figures.
Oats were fairly active and weaker
early in sympathy with the two leading
grain markets, but the close was finally
made at only a fraction under yester
day's latest figures. The total stocks in
store at present are only about one
eighth as large as those of last year.
For an hour there was a great market
in provisions. The trade settled down
to the belief that the Wright line of ribs
had been liquidated at a loss. The sell
ing of ribs this morning was begun by
the packers. There was no support in
the market. In lard there was a firmer
opening with several commission houses
buying. Then the September price
broke to $10, and was pegged again for
a time as on Monday. Later the price
got past the §10 point and the very
clique brokers who had supported it be
fore turned sellers. A sharp break fol
lowed. On the break Wagner bought
several thousand tierces of lard, prob
ably for Hately. Ribs got a rally of 20c.
from the low point. • After this action
the trade became very quiet.
Freights were in good demand and
rates firmer at i x : z p\ : '^c for wheat and
1./-i(o-;-8C for corn to Buffalo.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow:
Wheat, 44 cars; corn, 320 cars; oats, 135
cars; hogs, 22,000.

THE SAINT PAUL DAILY GLOBE: WEDNESDAY MORNING, JTJLY 19, 1803.
BTIL.I. WATER NEWS.
The Complications of the Wheeler
Case Aired Somewhat.
A special term of the district court
was held yesterday. Judge Crosby pre
siding. Testimony was taken in the
matter of compelling the St. Paul
Trust company to disclose certain prop
erty alleged to have been placed in its
vaults by R. J. Wheeler, who made an
assignment for the benefit of creditors
in February last. Harvey Officer, as
sistant secretary of the company, testi
fied that Mr. Wheeler had rented a box
in the vault, but that none of the officers
knew what had been placed in it, if
any. The attorneys representing the
creditors attempted to show that J. C.
Nethaway, of this city, was in posses- '
sion of one of the keys to the vault, but
Mr. Nethaway testified that he had
never had one. Mr. Wheeler had ap
pointed his daughter, Viola B. Girvin,
his deputy, and she and Mr. Wheeler
were the only persons having access to
the box. The attorneys stated that it
would be necessary to take the testi
mony of one of the other employes of
the Trust company, and court adjourned
at noon to meet iv St. Paul at 3 o'clock.
Judge Crosby, together with officers
of the court and the attorneys in the
case appeared at the office of the Trust
company in St. Paul and took the de
positions of Gen. Bishop, president of
the Trust company, and of Robert (J.
Rhodes, custodian of the satety vaults.
The court had explained to it how the
safety vault is managed. The master
key to the outside door to the private
apartment is in custody of the Trust
company anu two keys to the inner box
are given to the person leasing the box.
The Trust company lias no means of
access to the inner box except by break
ing into it, while the duplicate keys are
held by Mr. Wheeler and his
daughter, Mrs. Viola B. ' Girvin,
who is deputized by Mr. Wheeler,
as shown by the books in the safety
vault, to use the key other than the
one held by him. Mr. Wheeler and his
daughter are in California, whither they
went more than a month auo. The
court was told that, unless Mr. Wheeler
would surrender his key the trust com
pany could not get into the box unless
the court should order it bioken into
and the contents delivered over to the
receiver. None of the officers of the
trust company know what Mr. Wheeler
has in the box, and could not answer as
to whether there was, among other
things, as claimed, the 520.000 in cer
terhcates of deposit on the Lumbermen's
Bank ot Stillwater.
J. F. Daubenberger, McGregor, lo.',

ASSOCIATION MEETING.
Result of the '1 rans-Missouri
Committee Gathering.
Kansas City, July 18.— The trans-
Missouri committee of the Western
Passenger association began a session
here this morning in the trans-Missouri
headquarters. Ml
B. 1). Caldwell, chairman of the West
ern Passenger association, was present,
because the business before this meet
ing is of great importance. J. S. Mc-
Cullough, the new secretary of the
trans-Missouri, was present, tins being
the first meeting held since his election.
Before adjournment at noon, the
association agreed upon a rate of one
fare for the round trip for the Kansas
City fair and the priests of Pallas,
tickets to be sold on certain days from
points within a radius of 200 miles from
Kansas City and on other days only
within a radius of 150 miles. The im
portant question of the transcontinental
rate disturbance will be taken up to
morrow. This trouble has been caused
by the rate wars in the North started by
tne Great Northern railway and joined
by the Northern Pacific, Canadian
Pacific and more recently by the Union
Pacific. The rate of $30 either wav,
Missouri river points to Portland, is so
remarkably low" that it cannot be main
tained forever, and the association will
see what can be done about it.
NOT CONCERNED.
Canadian Pacific Officials Do Not
Worry Over the Tacoma Grand
Jury Fiat.
Montreal, July 18.— Referring to
the recent alleged infraction of inter
slate commerce law by a Canadian Pa
cific ticket agent at Tacoma, General
Traffic Manager Olds, of the Canadian
Pacific railroad, said today: "The
agent in question is forthe time being a
citizen of the United States, and is well
aware of the responsibility he would
incur in violating the interstate com
merce law, as has been alleged, and if
he has sold the ticket in question he is
personally responsible. Allowing that
the agent has been guilty of any such
violation, which we do not admit, no
one can show that he was prompted to
do so by any of the company's officials.
Consequently neither the president nor
general traffic manager nave themselves
much concern over the recent fiat of the
Tacoma grand jury.
Receiver Appointed.
Baltimore, July IS.— Judge Goff,
presiding here in chambers as for the
United States district court of Eastern
Virginia, and upon application of the
Central Trust company, of New York,
has appointed Samuel Spencer. ex-Sen
ator F. I. lluydcooper and Frederick
Foster as receivers for the Richmond &
Danville and leased line. Samuel
Spencer is the representative of the
Drexel & Morgan interests and the ap
pointment is in the interest of reorgan
ization. Each of the receivers was" re
quired to give bond with approved se
curity for*loo,ooo.
Judge Goff passed the necessary order
and appointed the three trustees
named. Messrs. Foster and Huyd
cooper were appointed receivers by
Judge Born). In making the appoint
ment the court ratifies and confirms all
the acts of Messrs. lluydcooper and
Foster, the old receivers, the order be
ing specially guarded in that respect.
The next step that will be taken will be
the foreclosure under the general con
solidated mortgage and sale of the
property.
Cut-Kate Tickets.
New York, July 18.— President
Sloan, of the Lackawanna, says there is
no truth whatever in the charge that
the Lackawanna company has placed
cut rate tickets on sale. Tickets have
undoubtedly been purchesed by scalp
ers in large amounts and they are plac
ing them on sale. Nothing is being
done by the Lackawanna that is not
legitimate in every respect.
REMARKABLE GROWTH
FROM 10,000 TO 1,000,000 IN TEN
■-J YEARS.
Substantial Evidence of Public
Appreciation — Rapid Exten
sion of a Business Founded on
Merit— When Newspaper Ad
vertising Is Valuable.
The mark of public appreciation
which best Indicates the meritorious
character of an artice for public use is
the evidence shown by the necessity of
enlargement of business facilities con
nected with the production of this arti
cle. The Kickapoo Indian Medicine
Company, located at New Haven, Conn.,
owning and manufacturing from the
original formulas of the Kickapoo In
dians the famous medicines of that cel
ebrated tribe, has found it necessary to
make a substantial enlargement of
its factory by the purchase of
a six-story brick building, containing
about 30.000 square feet of floor space,
for conducting the enormous and still
increasing business of supplying their
remedies to the public. This growth has
all been within the pas ten years; and
this is the third time tbeEickapoo lndian
Medicine Company have outgrown
their quarters since the first Introduc
tion of the Kickapoo Remedies among
the white people. Their business has
grown in a ratio of one to a hundred;
or in other words, they are now doing
annually one hundred times the amount
ot business they did the first year.
Merit a Necessary Basis.
This success resulted mainly from the
intrinsic merit of the Kickapoo rem
edies; since their introduction was
largely attained with comparatively
little or no advertising, and that prin
cipally consisting ot patties of Indians
with their interpreters traveling from
town to town erecting their camps and
showing the people just what the Kick
apoo remedies were, and their use.
lt was only within the past two years
that the Kickapoo remedies have beeu
advertised in the newspapers, and then
only at first in certain sections after
I their sale had been established, so as to
keep the merits of the Kickapoo rem
edies before the people. Tins news
paper advertising, however, has been
ot much benefit to the sale of these
famous medicines, and has been largely
instrumental in effecting the need of
additional facilities. Many people who
were not reached before are now using
the Kickapoo Indian remedies, and
some really astonishing cures have been
wrought by these simple comp ;unds of
roots, barks and herb's.
When Newspaper Advertising
Pays.
Healy & Bigelow, the agents for the
Kickapoo Indian Medicine Company,
appreciate and indorse most heartily
the value ot the newspaper advertising
tor a meritorious article, and say: "We
find that newspaper readers are very
discriminating, and inclined to be skep
tical at first, but alter you Have estab
lished confidence in your goods and the
people find that your statements are re
liable, then your business is bound to
increase and extend/
The Kiekapoo Remedies consist of
only five articles, ail of which are purely
the products if roots, barks, gums,
leaves and flowers. They are absolutely
free from mineral or other del. erious
substances, as attested to after a chem
ical analysis by R. 11. Crittenden, pro
fessor ot physiological chemistry at Yale
college.
Kickapoo Indian Sagwa is a blood,
liver anil stomach remedy. Kickaooo
Indian Oil is a quick cure for all pains,
silliness, soreness, rheumatism aim lire
like. Kickapoo Indian Cough Cure, as
the name implies, is lor throat and
lung difficulties. Kickapoo Indian
Salve is an excellent remedy for cuts,
wounds, sores, eczema, etc.. and Kicka
poo Indian Worm Killer is a harmless
and absolutely certain remedy for those
troubles so frequently met with among
children, viz: beat, pin and stomach
worms. The Sagwa retails for one
dollar a bottle; the Cough Cure fifty
cents; and the other remedies at
twenty-live cents a bottle or package.
There is probably not a drug store in
the United Slates today where the
Kickapoo remedies are not obtainable,
and we are pi eased to say that Messrs.
Healey & Bigelow have published in
this paper, aud will continue doing so,
some really marvelous cures effected
by the Kickapoo Indian remedies, and
also unimpeachable evidence of the
absolute vegetaole purity of these
simple, yet effectual compounds, that,
as some one has said, bring "Long Life
and Good Health."
DENVBR EXCITED.
Eleven Banks in That City Have
Trouble — Yesterday's Calami
ties.
Denver, Col., July 18.— Union
National bank, of which R. W. Wood
bury is president, failed to open its
doors this morning. The capital is $1,
--000,000. No statement can be had. A
run is now being made on City Na
tional, German National, First Na
tional, Colorado National and all the
eleven clearing house banks.
The McNamara dry goods house, one
of the largest institutions of the kind,
failed this morning. The liabilties are
placed .at $260,000. The assets at this
time are not known. The failure was
brought on by an attachment served on
the iiouse at 10 o'clock this morning by
the Union National bank, which failed
to open its doors this morning, for $71,
--780, and the Colorado National ' bank
for .-$20,847.74. The president of the lat
ter bank had a private claim of $25,000,
and D. Sheedy, an officer in the Denver
National bank, one for $40,000. The ,
failure was not unexpected, but it had
been hoped that money would be easier
and that the firm would be able to pull
through. The stringency in the money
market and inability to place securities
or secure an extension from the banks,
aided by the closing of three savings
banks yesterday, was the direct cause.
Had the banks which closed yesterday
been able to secure cash with which to
carry it over the "hard spots" the fail
ure would not have occurred. Nearly
the entire amount falls on Denver
banks and commercial houses.
Hyman & Co , proprietors of the Bee
Hive store; McWhirter <& Dipps, dealers
in mantels and tiles, and Engle & Har
ris, dry goods, have just assigned today.
No statements available, but amounts
probably not large. The Mercantile
bank, with a capital of §100,000, has as
signed to XV. F. Robinson.
The Mercantile bank, a private insti
tution, with a capital stock of $100,000,
closed its doors at noon. The failure
was caused by the failure of the Union
National bank, through which it cleared.
C. C. Mird, the city auditor, is the presi
dent. W. A. Robinson, formerly treas
urer of the Republican Publishing com
pany, one of the oldest and most promi
nent men in the state, has been named
as assignee.
Denver, July IS.— Commercial
National bank has closed its doors. A
notice says :
"This bank has gone into liquidation
by order of the board of directors."
DENVER Col., July is.— The National
Bank of Commerce has closed its doors.
Ex-Gov. John F. Cooper is president of
this bank.
Denver, July IS.— The excitement
and demand upon the banks for money
continued unabated till about2o'clock
when it had almost entirely subsided at
all the banks except the State National
and the German National, where the
line of depositors seemed to increase in
stead of diminish. This bank is under
stood to have a special train on the way
from Kansas City bearing $490,000, and
that it will reach here early tomorrow
morning.
The First National bank received
$170,000 at a little after l o'clock today,
and $-250,000 more at the closing hour.
This came from New York. It was
money due President Moffatt for bullion
he had sold.
Just before the close the failure of the
Mercantile Savings bank, with a capital
of $100,000, was announced. Its assets are
sufficient to pay all liabilities in time.
At 'it o'clock, the closing hour, there
wore hardly half a dozen people in any
of the institutions except the above.
D. U. Moffatt. president of the First
National, stated that the deposits at his
house during the day had greatly ex
ceeded tho withdrawals. This bank has
always been most conservatively man
aged, and is almost exclusively owned
by Mr. Moffatt.
":- -The general opinion among the bank
ers aud business men is that the panic
is over, and that no more banks will be
.obliged to close, although the run in a
mild way may continue against two or
three banks for a day or two.
( J It is believed by financiers that to
day's run will result in the poople hav
ing more confidence in the strong
banks, and that the money withdrawn
today will at once be redeposited and a
better feeling be established in financial
circles, which will make money easier.
" The suspended banks expect to re
sume business in a short time.
/Hie constant drain on the banks by
scared depositors has brought about the
crisis. It is stated by hankers that no
less than $5,000,000 has been drawn
from the banks in the last three months,
Of this $3,000,000 has gone to the East
in regular lines of business, but there is
$5,000,0000 hoarded in the city. The
safety deposit vaults are full, and there
is reason to suppose that the homes of
workinirmen contain secret places in
which their savings are hidden. If one
fifth of that amount were let into circu
lation, the stringency in Denver would
cease.
Foist Scott, Kan., July 18.— The
First National hank of this c.ty. the old
est financial institution in Southeastern
Kansas, suspended payment. The First
National was established herein 1871,
and was the oldest and largest national
bank in Southeastern Kansas. It had a
capital stock of $300,000, fully paid in,
and has always stood ail runs. Some
of theheaviest depositors of the bank
say that they are confident they will
not lose a dollar, and that the bank will
resume business at an early date. A
run on the People's Savings "bank was
started, but the thirty-day law was
taken advantage of, and the bank thus
saved from being swamped. The fail
uieof the First National has no effect
on the other banks.

opinion is that the embarrassment will
be speedily overcome. Dispatches from
Iron Mountain say mat the employes of
the Chapin mine at iron Mountain,
operated by the syndicate, will be paid
a month s wages by Wednesday, which
is a favorable indication of the syndi

Trouble Between the Miners and
Deputies Feared.
Pittsbuisg, Kan., July 18.— At Litch
field tnis morning it was noticed that
three men went back to work in a strip
pit near there. A committee of six or
seven miners pleaded with them to stop
work, but it did no good, The commit
tee returned and reported that the men
persisted in working, and a number of
women went to the men and asked them
to stop. This was refused, and the*
, women began throwing coal and other
missiles at them. This was too much
for the men, and they picked up their
tools and dinner pails and bent a hasty
retreat. -699

THE DEPRESSION IN LONDON.
The Decline All Along the Lino
Was From One to Eight Points
■-—Outpouring of Long Stock on
a Rumor of Bank Failures —
The Close Slightly Firmer.
New York, July IS.— Speculation at
the stock exchange was characterized
by great depression. A sharp decline
iv American securities at London,
coupled with rumors of financial em
barrassment of an important house
there and heavy sales for foreign ac
count, started liquidations here on an
extensive scale, and prices declined
rapidly. Urged on by their success,
the bears circulated stories affecting
the credit of some of the most promi
nent houses in London, Berlin and
Amsterdam. On this side the leading
factor in creating anxiety as to the
stock market was the panic reported in
Denver, where a general run was made
upon the banks. The bears simply car
ried everything before them, and a very
uneasy feeling, prevailed in stock cir
cles, although it is to be said that the
local money market remained easy,
and, despite the great shrinkage
in values, not a single failure
occurred at the Stock Exchange. The
decline was equal to I@9 points as com
pared with the final quotations of yes
terday and toward the close stocks were
sold almost regardless ot price. Na

rumor that a down-town bank had
called upon the clearing house for as
sistance, but upon investigation was
found that there was absolutely
no truth in the story. A tew

Special to the Globe.
Duluth, July 18.— -The situation here
today in the wheat market was peculiar.
September opened weak and %c lower
than yesterday's close, and before noon
had declined l%c. Cash wheat stronger
than September, owing to the milling
demand. .Buyers and sellers were far
apart in spot wheat, the former main
-1 taining that the same drop in price
should take place in cash wheat as in
September. But the sellers did not give
away to the demand for a drop, but
maintained prices. The weakness here
was not so pronounced as in Chicago
and Eastern markets. Reports of fur
ther troubles among banks in London,
New York aud Denver came in and had
their effect on the market. The after

MINNEAPOLIS.
(.'liimilter of Commerce
Prices of wheat futures broke badly
early in the day. The feeling was weak.
The weakness was more pronounced,
however, in the winter wheat than in
the spring wheat markets. Receipts of
new wheat at St. Louis were large.
Stocks were lower, which had a bad
effect on wheat. Some failures were re
ported in the West, and this caused
some selling in Eastern markets on the
fear of further financial troubles. Con
siderable long wheat came out on the
break and this helped to make it easier
for the bears to force prices off still
lower. The day's sales for export were
reported large at Atlantic seaboard
j points. September sold down to 01}£c,
j 2c lower than Monday.

CROP REPORT.
Weather Favorable for Harvest
Work — Good Xew.
Washington, July 18.— The weekly
crop report of the weather bureau
states that the warm, dry weather has
been especially favorable for harvest
work and haying, which is well under

sota. In view of the reported shortage
of forage in Europe, it is worthy of
special note that the hay crop is excel
lent in almost all sections.
Some injury has resulted to crops iii
Kentucky, Tennessee and portions of
Illinois owing to the hot, dry weather,
and rain is generally needed east of
the Mississippi, in Texas and in the
upper Missouri valley.
There has been a general improve
ment in crop conditions during the
week. Corn is reported in excellent
condition in most states. The cotton
crop is improving, except in South
Carolina and Texas, although the plant
is small.
Wisconsin— Winter wheat and rye
harvest general; yield excellent; spring
wheat rather light.
Minnesota— Corn never better; small
grains and potatoes greatly improved.
Wheat, rye ami barley harvest begun ;
haying nearly completed; yield below
average.
lowa— Corn prospect never better;
oats and spring wheat affected by rust
in many localities; barley cutting com
menced.
North Dakota— Decided improvement
in condition of crops is reported from
all sections.
South Dakota— Rain would be bene
ficial; corn doing finely; wheat and
oats heading and filling. Rye and bar-"
ley harvest commenced; potatoes and.
tlax doing well.
Montana— Excess of precipitation very
beneficial to grazing lauds in eastern
portion.
