R. G. Dun A Co.’s Review.
NEW YORK. Sept. 14.-R. G. Dun A Cm'*
Weekly Review of Trade today says:
An assassin'■ bullet curtailed the progre**
of a nation For a ttme projected undertak
ing* were abandoned and orders were held back
that wee* about to be placed. Speculators
sacriflced stocks and options uu grain and cot
ton. Better new* early in the week brought
recovery in price* and postponed business was
transacted, but enxiety was again in *vldenoe
on Friday. After the crisis there will be a
return to former condition*, because the solid
foundation of th* country's prosperity la too
deep to be permanently disturbed.
In the principal manufacturing Industrie*
there is a steady gain in tb* number of active
mills and fall operr.tiou is considered near.
Less urgency for Im media** delivery of goods
and less inclination to pay premiums on the
part of the well-posted men. suggesting that
the** consumers anticipate a return to normal
activity with little delay.
Mill* ar* accepting contracts for delivery of
steel rails far Ipto IMI at *B. so that no
change tn price Is near. Finished steel Is freely
taken whenever producers have good* to offer
•t reasonable term*, and the enforced Idleness
tn tin plate mills promises to .reduce high
price* cad decrease Imports Instead of a
terg* Increase In Iron furnace stocks, owing
to the known decree** tn consumption of *teel
mills, there appears n loss of 10.355 tons for
the month of August. Evidently mill stocks
have been augmented very heavily.
Shoe shops still operate full force* and while
th* large producers of New England hav* th*
most noUcesble activity. Manufacturers all
over th* country char* th* heavy demand.
Dry goods enjoy exceptional activity, at
many points packer* working day and night.
Many lines of eotton goods, both bleached and
brown, hav* moved to a higher level, and this
branch -rs textile Industry Is In better posi
tion than at any previous dat* this season,
mainly owing to light stocks In flrot hands.
Purchase* of woolen and worsted fabric* ar*
larger tn staple lines, and while mills hsve
for new order*, they ar* fully occupied on
Jong -term contracts.
An er.ormcu* gain In the visible supply of
eoffee, together with receipts at Brasil ports,
fully indorsing the largest estimates of the
current crop depressed No. 7 Rio to I've, which
is within a stxteentb of the lowest rric* ever
Cotton was wMker. partly on account of
full details rogardlng the old crop snd new
spindle*, but still mere because of light tor
sign buying and better prospect* for the yield
just t*gtnntag to be picked.
* Wheat did not respond to a lower govern

still anticipate the greatest yield ever har

Murphy A Co.’s Wegkly Stock Review.
NEW YORK. Sept. 14.—Th* unexpected unfa
vorable news regarding th* condition of th*
president this morning gave nearly as violent
a shock to th* stock market as th* attack upon
his Ilf* At the same ttme the prompt action
of tb* banks and of the treasury department
ta providing against a emergency m the money
market had relieved apprehension regarding
the monetry siualon The outlook w* sudden
ly- and radicail> changed by the distressing
news from Buffalo The first effect of this
Chang* was reflected in the London market for
American securities. Dealer* at that center
practically declined to make transactions in
them, and though th* market was thus rear
derod nominal, quotations were 3 to 4 pointe
below the figures recorded here at the clone
yesterday. Th* result here wa« an active and
excited opening and prices showed decline* of
1 to 4 point* below th* final of yesterday.
During the first hour there was extensive liqui
dation throughout the list. The decline wa*
checked partly by covering of short* and by
the execution of order* that had been given to
Steady th* market by various substantial In
terwta Some of the buying contributed to thta
goovement was through commission houses and
can bgicsdly be construed as evidanc* that In-
Vestor* and to an extent the general public
eoasMvr the present level of prices a reasonable
one It 1* also interesting to not* that nsure
Man half ot day * busintw wax transacted
In the first hour. During that period without
ddubt 'an extensive roadjustment of account*
took plan* either through necessity or in ex
poctaUon of tne death of the president After
that th* transaction* In stocks were about nor
mal. but the fluctuations reflected uneasiness
and approheswion that current reports that he
Pfsidn had succumbed to his Injury and were
well grounded .
Th* money market was also affected adverse
ly. still the rat** did not reach extreme high
figures. The bulk of business on call was done
about 6 per cent, though considerable transac
tion* were mad* at T and S per cent and an
extreme 10 per cent was recorded The moneta
ry situation was Influenced to considerable ex
tent by th* tect that nearly all of the ten.mil
llorw to be paid by the treasury departfnknt for
bonds purchased yesterday will be disbursed
at this center. Tn th* railway Hot the more
important dealings were to Union Pacific, A-
N., and Southern Pacific.

A DICK fURPiN~TO PRISON.
Has Figured In Many Escapades, Yet
I* Only a Child.
After having, by his own confession,
committed the crimes of arson, burglary
and larceny and escaped punishment In
each case on account of his age, Wade
O’Callaghan, a young white boy, was
bound over to the chy court by Recorder
Broyles Thursday afternoon to ansewer to
the charge of stealing a cow. Bond was
fixed at S2OO, but was not given.
In disposing of this case Judge Broyles
remarked that if the boy was pot stop
ped In his career of crime he would event
ually make the greatest :hie£ Georgia has
ever produced. The charge that O’Callag
han will have to answer to Is the larceny
of a cow from J. P. Gower. Mr. Gower
left his cow in a vacant lot to graxe and
Wade stole It, led it to a slaughter house
and offered to sell It for $lO. He said
the cow waj Ihe property of his father
and he was in hard luck. In addition to
this charge the police have another
against him—that of stealing a box of to
bacco from the J. J. & J. E- Maddox
Grocery Company. He was not tried on
this charge.
This boy claims to be but nine years
old. but Judge Broyles said yesterday that
he entered the Boulevard school in 1894
and that the school cannot be attended
by children until they are six years eld.
This would make Wade thirteen years old,
and he looks to be fully that age. The
father of the youthful criminal was pres
ent in court Thursday and made a plea
for his boy. but as the recorder thought
him too dangerous a criminal to te at
large, he was committed to jail.
EMMA GOLDMAN’S CREW.
Chicago Anarchl*t* Fighting For Free
dom With Habea* Corpus.
CHICAGO, Sept. 13—Hearing of the
writ of habeas corpus for the release of
anarchcists under arrest here began be
fore Judge Chettlain in the criminal court
at 11:40 a. m. today.
Because of threats of lynch
ing the prisoners tnaue by angry
citixens on the streets this morning Judge
Chettlain decided to hear the habeas cor
pus case in the criminal court building
instead of in the county building. The
county building is in the downtown dis
trict where bulletins telling of the presi
dent's condition are liberally*'posted.
The anarchists are locked up in the Jail
adjacent to the rear of the criminal court
building, the two being connected by *
covered way. It is five blocks from the
jail to the county building, where Judge
Chettlain ordinarily sits. Sheriff Mager
stadt moved among the excited crowds
during the morning and heard threats of
lynching freely made. Fearing that an
attack might be made in bringing the
prisoners flown town, he went to the
judge and requested him to make the
change. He told Judge Chettlain that the
crowds wer angry and that every bulle
tin from the president’s bedside made
them more threatening. Judge Chettlain
readily consented to the change.
"The anger of the crowd is justifiable,”
said Chief of Police O’Neill. "I feel with
them, but there will be no lynching in
i Chicago. It is impossible. The sheriff’s
precautions are wise. It has been a long
time s,lnce I have seen a Chicago crowd
as angry as this one."
Judge Chettlain arrived at 11:30 a. m.
and a few minutes later the nine prison
ers charged with conspiracy to kill the
president were led in and given seats be
hind a row of bailiffs. Sheriff Magerstadt
was present in person.
Throughout the room were deputy sher
iffs and detectives in plain clothes, the
sheriff having determined to take every
precaution against trouble. The writ of
habeas corpus having been complied with
by the production of the nine prisoners in
court, counsel then made returns in be
half of the sheriff, the chief of police and
Justice Prtndlville, who, according to the
petition, held the prisoners under restraint
Illegally.
The prisoners brought into court were:
Abraham Isaak.
Abraham Isaak, Jr.
Clemens Pfuetxner.
Hippolyte Havel.
Henry Ttavaglio.
Michael Ross.
Martin Roeeneck.
Ross Fox.
Emma Goldman was not present, but
Justice Pilndlville had promised to follow
whatever decision was made by Judge
Chettlain.
Leopold Saltiel, representing the prison
ers. opened the argument asking for the
release of his clients bn the grounds that
they were being held without a shadow of
legal reason. Attorney Saltiel claimed, in
an excited voice that all the papers in
the case were insufficient anu were issued
under false pretense.
Judge Chettlain interrupted to say it
appeared to him that the ease was still

ROOSEVELT’S GEORGIA BLOOD.
Theodore Roosevelt is closely bound to
Georgia by ties of blood.
His mother, Martha Bulloch, was the
granddaughter of James Bulloch, who
was a doughty soldier of the revolution,
serving as a captain of Georgia and Vir
ginia troops.
The father of James Bulloch was Archi
bald Bulloch, the first revolutionary gov
ernor of Georgia, and his father was
named James Bulloch also, a Scotchman,
who settled in Georgia in 1715, and was
a member of the Georgia provincial con
gress. He was closely related to the he
roic Douglasses of Scotland. Thus Theo
dore Roosevelt comes of Illustrious stock,
Scotch as well as Dutch. He has Hugue
not blood, too, by reason of the fact that
the wife of Archibald Bulloch was Mary
de Vaux, granddaughter of a distinguish
ed Huguenot, who fled f/om France after
the edict of Nantes was revoked.
It will be seen that the lineage of Theo
dore Roosevelt is very rich in historic as
sociations. His mother was a woman of
rare beauty and graces of intellect. One
of her brothers was the gallant Captain
Bulloch, who resigned from the United
States navy to east his fortunes with the
Confederacy. It was be who secured that
historic cruiser, tho Alab .iua, for the
Confederate government and succeeded in
getting .her to sea in spite of all the ef
forts of the United States minister, con
suls and agents in England. Captain Bul
loch never returned te this country and
died only a few months ago in London re
spected and honored by all who knew
him.
The old Bulloch mansion in Roswell,
where Theodore Roosevelt’s father wooed,
won and married his mother, is still in
-fine preservation and is now the property
of Mr. James D. Wing, who is connected
with the White Hickory tVagon works at
East Point, six miles from Atlanta.
Theodore Roosevelt has been married
twice. His first wife was Miss Alice Lee,
of Boston, who died two years after her
marriage, leaving a daughter.
In 1886 he was married' again to'Miss
Edith Kennlt Carew, of New York. They
have six children, four sons and two
daughters. Never has the white house
held so many children among its occu
pants as it will have during the Roose
velt administration. ■
Roosevelt’* Great Versatility.
Few men have won fame in so many
different directions as Theodore Roose
velt. He is a scholar, author, soldier and
statesman.
At Harvard lie was distinguished for hi*
excellence both in studies and athletics.
There he acquired a great part of the ih-

THE LA W OF SUCCESSION TO THE PRESIDENCY.
Until 1886 the law of the succession to
the presidency in case of the death, re
moval or incapacity of the president,
provided that the vice president should
come into the office. Next to him In the
line of succession stood the president
pro tempore of the senate, that is the
member ot the senate who had been elect
ed to preside over the proceedings of
that body in the absence, of the vice pres
ident. . .
After the president pre tempore ot tne
senate came the speaker of the house of
representatives and beyond him there was
no provision for succession.
The defect and possible danger Involved
In this law were brought forcibly to the
mind of the country in 1881 by the death
of President Garfield and the conditions
then existing. . . L
Vice President Chester. A. Arthur Step

September 19th. Mr. Saltiel thereupon

Not a scintilla of evidence, he said, had

were guilty of "conspiring to murder the
president,” as charged in the complaint.
John F. Geetlng. as counsel for the pris

but the senate had failed to elect a presi

if President Arthur had died or in any
way become incapable of performing the
functions of the presidency a very uncer

have ensued.
In order to make the succession more

It is now provided that the vice presi

have been eliminated.

NEW BAPTIST SECRETARY.
Rev. F. C. McConnel is In the City on
Investigating Tour.
Rev. F. C. McConnell, who was elected
to succeed the late Dr. F. H. Kerfoot as
secretary of the Baptist home mission
board, arrived in the city Friday after
noon from Lynchburg, Va.
The newly elected officer was met upon
bia arrival by members of the board ana
extended a cordial welcome to the city.
Dr. McConnell does not come to the city
at this time to assume the duties of his
office, but to make 'a preliminary survey
of the work and to look about and decide
upon his residence. He will return to
Lynchburg Thursday and will bring his
family back in about three weeks.
Dr. McConnell expresses his great pleas
ure at returning to his former home. He
said he ufled to live in Georgia and feels
now that he belongs here. For a year he
said he lived in Atlanta, that was about
22 years ago, and for a long time lived
near the city.

Roosevelt has made many notable pub

upon the lecture platform. He is a very
forceful speaker, plain and pointed of
spech, and affecting none of the tricks or

He is a man of action rather than words.
He cares little' for society in the techni

social instincts which he loves to indulge
among his special friends. Tnese he num

The secretary of agriculture is not In
cluded, as his office had not been created
at the time the act was passed. Before
that the agricultural bureau was presided
over by a commissioner, who had no seat
in the president’s cabinet. The argument
used in support of this legislation was
that it provided a more secure succession
to the presidency by adding more names
to it and that it insured also that the
policy of the administration would not
be revolutionized, as it often would have
been had the president pro tempore of the
senate or the speaker of the house step

MR. KRUGER'S SON
NAS SURRENOEREO
AN ACCOUNT OF BATTLE WHICH
RESEMBLES STORMING OF DAR-
GAI HEIGHTS BY GORDONS. 4
LONDON, Sept 13.—A dispatch from
Lord Kitchener dated Pretoria, announce*
that C. Kruger, a son of the former pres
ident of the Transvaal, and Captain Fer
reira have surrendered.
Lord Kitchener has sent King Edward,
as colonel-in-chlef of the Gordon High
landers, an account of an incident that
strongly recalls the storming of Dargal
Heights by that regiment. Lord Kitchen
er says that after surrendering. Com
mandant DeVilliers informed him that
during the Boer attack of July 4, on Wat
son Spruit, the Highlanders behaved with
the utmost gallantry.
"The Last four men, though completely
surrounded and without cover, continued
to fire until three were killed and the
fourth wounded. One of the Boers asking
the survivor the reason why they had not
surrendered, he replied, ‘Why, man, we
are Gordon Highlanders.’ ”
BOTH SIDES CLAIM VICTORY.
Government and Rebel Force* Seem to
Be Pretty Evenly Matched.
NEW YORK, Sept. 12.—According to ad
vices from Colombia, received by The
Tribune, both sides are claiming victo
ries. Arturo de Brlgard, Colombian con
sul general here, has received a commu
nication from General Jaime Cordqva,
governor of the department o{ Caucb’v He
tells of a government victory at Pueta -
Piedra over the rebel forces of General
Barriga and also of the defeat of the in
surgent leader. General Marina, at La
Pledras. In this engagement, General Cor
dova says, the revolutionists lost 200
men.
General Eduardo Vasques, of the gov
ernment army, was also killed in this bat
tle. The latter was one of the wealthiest
and most influential citizens of Antioquia.
According to official advices the rebels
suffered another defeat at El Helechal. de
partment of Santander, in which one of
their chiefs was killed and another taken
prisoner.
General Cordova also writes that an in
vasion from Ecuador is feared. He charges
that the president of Ecuador is supplyl
- arms and ammunition to the revolu
tionists commanded by General Avellno
Rosas for this purpose. The governor of
Cauca adds:
"In a short time we shall have nearly
20,000 men under arms in this department.”
The information that came to the local
agents of the rebellion, however, gave an
entirely deferent aspect to the state of
affairs. This news tells of a battle
fought at Macqueque, department of
Boyaca, which lasted for several days.
The government division under General
Moya Vasques, governor of Boyaca, to
the number of 3,000. attacked the strongly
Intrenched force of 1,000 rebels command
ed by General Benito Hernandez, with
the result that the former were repulsed
with a great loss to their ranks. Besides
this, the insurgents secured ten pack
mules, carrying 20,000 cartridges. The
scene of this engagement is an excellent
strategic point, and it is said that it will
require an army of more than five thou
sand to dislodge the liberals from their
stronghold. It is not definitely known
how many were killed and wounded, but
the number is said to have been large.
General Rafael Uribe-Uribe, chief of the
main army of rebels, is now said to be ih
Santander with 6,000 men. His plan is
to engage the government force from the
front while General Hernandez and an
other command under General Polydoro
Ardilla. from Ocana, attack from the
rear, thus practically surrounding the
principal detachment of the government.
General Uribe-Uribe has lately been
joined by General Pedro Rodriguez, who
sailed from here a short time ago on the
steamer Maracaibo.
