PETROLEUM FUTURES.

Beginning To-Day They Will be Dealt in at New York,

NEW YORK, June 26.—Beginning tomorrow the consolidated (exchange in this city and the Western Oil exchanges will deal in petroleum futures. The new move is not relished by the Standard oil'company and its brokers refuse to trade in contracts for future delivery and are joined bv some of the largest commission brokers. The New York stock exchange was not recognized by the other exchanges in the negotiations for new arrangements, but it made them aware that it would not listen to any proposition for trading in options in crude oil certificates or anything else. Members of the New York stock exchange who are prominent in the speculation in petroeum control nearly half of the outstanding certificates and when the new arrangement was agreed on they called in large amount of certificates which they had loaned to western operators and it was this that caused the corner on Monday and forced shorts to cover at 91 per barrel. No decision has been arrived at by the Producers' union in regard to exercising the option to put the 3,500,000 barrels carried by them to the Standard oil company at 90c. One of the principal producers said today that an outside syndicate was bidding the entire lot, and that it would be delivered to the higheet bidder. It is understood the outside syndicate is composed of members of the New York stock exchange.

STRAY ^FORMATION.

A little itfeuBe transpiring in well-known monooMiiii street on* day last week shows what a superstitious being the average sporting-man ia. For the past few days a oouple at itinerant musicians have been playing about the streets, and daring their rounds dropped into a saloon frequented bar a luge nam ber of the gentry. The oldest one of the musicians ia hump-backed, and gen erally on enteriag any place in search of the festive a and 10 cent pieces, seats himself with hia back to a wall, while hie comrade does the performing. After the playing ceased one or two of the sports sauntered up to the old man and engaged him in conversation and whan through walked off as if greatly pleased with something they had discovered. The next one seen talking to him was closely watched to

Bee

what

caused the hilarity and it was noticed that when he thought he WBB unobserved he lightly passed his hand with a caressing motion over the hump on the old man's back. All at once it occurred to thoee who had noticed the little byplay that it is believed by gamblers that a hump on a man's back is a "luck-stone" and that if they can touch it unseen, they will be "dead-sure winners."

BASE BALL.

A One Sided Game With Lafayette—The Score: Terre Haute 16, Llhyett* 2.

The first game with Lafayette on the home grounds was easily won and Lafayette tried three pitchers. Schaub was knocked out of the box in the fourth inning. Lemon, their beet pitcher, tried it for a few innings and did better. Then McFarlan, the first baseman, went into the box to rest Lemon, who is to pitch to-day and who will make a more interesting game of it. .The following is the score:

JOHN F. BEGGS UNDER ARREST,

A Rninor That He Is the 'Camp !SO" Informer.

CHICAGO, June 26.—John F. Beggs, senior guardian of Camp 20, Clan-na-Gael, is under arrest. The police have kept the arrest secret, and to-night refused to tell where Beggs was immured. arrival at the grand jury-room to-day in a police patrol wagon was the first intimation that he had been taken into custody. The prisoner is a well-to-do lawyer and has had some prominence as a politician. He was certainly at liberty last evening. The impression gained ground that he was arrested late at night on orders from State's Attorney Longenecker's theory that a committee of camp 20 tried and condemned Dr. Cronin as a spy, has become the principal phase of the investigation. The indications are that Beggs' repliee to interrogatories in the grand jury room, did not throw any light on the theory that Camp 20 "removed" Dr. Cronin as a spy. When the senior guardian came out of the jury room he was quickly taken off again in the patrol wagon under guard. Chief Hubbard to-night, when importuned by newspaper men who desired to interview the prisoner, said Beggs did not wish to be Been. On this foundation rumors spread that Beggs was the Camp 20 informer, whom the authorities have intimated they were in communication with. The idea that Beggs had turned informer was not, however, credited to any wide extent/
