George S. Anderson, a prominent banker and business man of Sandusky, Ohio shot himself through the head In his cellar Friday. Unfortunate investments In Kansas and consequent heavy losses are thought to have unsettled his reason. A new and plausible version of the Gould-Sage-Field deal is given by a New York paper. Mr.

Field held 70,000 shares of Manhattan stock, worth, before the recent collapse, He was carrying the stocks on margins, and when the wheat aud coffee corn-, era collapsed and the Fidelity bank went under, the loans were called and he was unable to respond. The market meanwhile went to pieces, and Mr. Field, In his emergency, turned to Mr. Gould for relief. The, latter kindly consented to take 50,000 shares of his Manhattan stock at the price it had averaged him about $120.

Mr. Field still found himself embarrassed, and on Tuesday offered Mr. Gould his remaining 20,000 shares, which the latter purchased. Mr. Field is still In the financial ring, although considerably disfigured.

He is said to console himself with the reflection that, notwithstanding the failure of his little corner in MaHhattan, his name will be historical as that of the originator of the Atlantic cable an'a the elevated railroad system of New York. Mr. Field may also find consolation In the fact that he hud such a noble and disinterested friend as Mr. Gould to succor hlra In his adversity, Mr. Powderly is deeply impressed with 'the dangers of unrestricted immigration, and believes that stringent measures should be adopted te check the tide of ignorance, barbarism, and panperfsm flowing to these shores from the old world.

New York, July 2.

A fatal and exceedingly obstinate fire broke out late this afternoon In the middle of the dry goods district, and for a time threatened destructioa to much of the adjacent property. It was caused by an unaccountable explosion of fireworks stored In the cellar of the six-story building, 343 Broadway, occupied by P. J. Keary Bro. Two lives were lost; a fireman was overcome by heat and smoke, and nearly $140,000 damage done.

The work of the day in the store was practically ended, when a snapping among some goods packed for shipment was heard.

The employes of the leadluir business centers report only a moderate degree of activity except at Kansas City and Chicago, where there is an exceptionally brisk movement for this time in the year. At the former the excellent crop prospects In the region tributary have stimulated a larger business with tho Interior, and at Chicago sales of dry goods, pig and manufactured iron and steel havo increased, with advances of from 50 cents to $1 per 1,000 feet for lumber. At Bostou, too, there is an excellent tone to general trade and a seasonable quantity of merchandise is moving.

The ira- roved crop outlook In southern Texas has elped business at Galveston. On the other hand, the volume of trade at Cincinnati has been curtailed since the financial disturbance there, and there is less activity noticeable at St. Joseph. Leading money markets have Inclined to stringency with advancing rates. Preparations for making semi-annual disbursements at New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago and other cities have contributed to this.

The low condition of New York bank reserves has had an added Influence, as the tendency of western banks to draw funds from the east has in no wise abated. Rates have been stiff at New York, and the market has been stringent at Boston. The call for funds on Chicago and Kansas City banks from the Interior has Increased. Manipulation by the Gould party In connection with a "deal" in Manhattan and Indications of furthar developments from the same source In regard to the telegraph properties keeps the New York stock market lu a sensitive and excited condition. Interest rates have been high and the money market has apparently been subjected to artificial pressure, though the treasury anticipated the July interest payments.

Albert Turner, one of the negro murderers of Jennie Bowman, was swung Into eternity from the pal-lows In the county jail yard at 6:32 o'clock this morning. He was straugled to death, his body being cut down about twenty minutes after the trap was sprung. Ouly fifty people were admitted to the yard, but about 2,000 assembled in the vicinity as early as 4:30 o'clock.

During the prayer, which immediately preceded the fall of the trap, Turner gazed at those about him unconcernedly, and went to his death without any evidence of fear. His dying statement was a contradiction of all previous. He said "I hope you all will take wart.Ing who see me now. Aud now, friends, there is a man In prison who robbed the street car.
