ed from the weight or cotton bales. The

argument for the measure. The opposi
tion took the ground that if the bill
should pass, it would drive the cotton
business from New York, and beside that,
it could not accomplish the objeot in
view, since the whole question of tare
would remain a matter to be settled be
tween sellers and bnyers.

of Mr. Sheard the committee was then

Baltimore, April 16—Between noon
aud 1 o’clock tc-day a ehooting affray oc
curred on Carrollton Avenue, in the
western section of this city, which re
sulted in tbe death of Mr. Isaac James.
In the latter pjirt cf December last, Wil
liam M. James demanded of Den wood B.
Hinds that be should many his sister,
whom be had seduced. Upon Hinds re-
fu?iO£ to comply, James drew a pistol,
and Hinds having prepared bicneeif, sev
eral sbo‘8 were exchanged sod both
wounded but not seriously. Hinds then
left the city and r3mained away until Fri
day last, when he returned. Baring his
absence Miss Jamaa died of puerperal
fever.
To-day Mr. Isaao James, the father of
the young lady, found Binds on the
street aud .drew a revolver and fired.
Hinds also fired and then ran. James
was in pursuit of him, when a younger
brother of Hinds, who wa3 with him,
jumped on tbe back of James, and, trip
ping him, threw him to tbe ground.
Hinds saw James down, and, returning,
placed his pistol to the head of James
and fired two balls into bi3 brain, from
which he died in a few minutes. Hinds,
who was at first supposed to be mortally
wounded, received but two flight wounds,
one in tbe right wrist and the other in
the month. The brother of Hinds was
shot in the arm, but not seriously. James
rf oeived lhr<-e wounds, a'l of which pene
trated the ekuT and on# ball passed en
tirely through his head. Hinds was at
ones taken into caatody. A jury of in-
qnest was summoned, bat adjourned
until to-morrow afternoon, in order that
a post-mortem examination may be made

A GOOD PLAN
Anybody can learn to make money rapidly oper
ating In 8to3k> by the “Two Unerring Rules tor
Success,” in Messrs Tawreneeft Co’s new Circu
lar. The combination method, which thia firm
has made so aucoeaaiul, enables people with
large or small means to reap all the benefits of
largest capital and best skill. Thousands of ov-
ders,in various sums, are rooted into one vast
amount and co-operated u a mighty whole, thus
securing to each shareholder all the advan’sges
of the largest operator. Immense profits are
divided monthly. Any amount, from $5 to SV000
or more, can be nsed successfully. Kew York
Baptist Weekly, September 28,1S7S, says: “By
the combination system $15 would make $75, or
5 per oent: $50 pays $350, or 7 per cent: $100
makes $1,000,or 10per oent on vho stock curing
the month, according to the market.” Frank
Lethe’s Illustrated Newspaper, June 29th: “The
combination method of operating stocks is the
most successful ever adopted." New York in
dependent, Sept, 12th: “The ounbinatiOH sys
tem is founded upon correct busme-s principles,
and no person need be without an income while
itiske'-t working by Messrs LawrerceftCo,”
