the two platoon system.
BARRICADED IN A HOUSE,
NEGRO FIRES ON SHERIFF
Sperlal to The Georgina.
nalabrldge, (Is., Oct. 11.—gundty morn
ing, Albert Williams, a negro, shot a ne
gro woman at Nspl.r, I mil., east of
here, while engaged In a dninken frolic.
Sheriff Patterson went to the scene, nnd
when be arrived he found the negro lier-
rtoaded In a negro house.
The negro opened Are with t winchester
Patterson returned the Are, hut the negro
had the advantage, na he wne In the house
nader the cover of dsrkncae. while the
sheriff was In the .open, exposed to the
dre of n winchester, fleeing that he coaid
not hope to capture the negro alone, the
sheriff secured a guard and placed them
over the hones, while he returned to Iteln-
bridge for a party of his deputies.
The poise returned, to And Hint tho ne
gro had eseaped to n nearby swamp. Dogs
were pat on the track, hnt np to Tuesday

Now York, Oct. 11.—The Bank of
England, as had been expected today.
Increased Its rate of discount from 4
to 6 per cent. It* accompanying state
ment of financial conditions mnde this
action of course Imperative. The pro
portion of'reeerve to liabilities has now
sunk to the abnormally low figure of
JT, per cent, which has on only one or
two occasions been equalled In recent
years. Neither abroad nor at home,
however, were the markets disturbed
by the news. Investment securities
In London were steady and American
stocks were quoted higher. In the early
dealings here the movement wns again
extremely Irregular, but the tendency
toward higher prices continued distinct
ly at all times and where some of tho
recent favorites were given over to
profit-taking, plenty of others appeared
to Lake their places. The Pacific
stocks, Pennsylvania, Copper, Balti
more nnd Ohio and Louisville and
Nashville and the traction shares were
prominent In the buying, the sharp rise
In tho last-named claiming special sig
nificance because this la the group
most directly concerned In the state
election.
Smelting and Copper rose 3-8 and
St. Paul and Steel preferred and Atchi
son gained 1-4 In the opening of tho
stock market this morning. Louisville
and Nashville gained 1-2 In all.
The stock market was again strong
In spots and with a generally firm un
dertone. In early trading Union 1 Pa
cific, Pennsylvania and St. Paul wero
the strongest features. Union Paclflo
was carried up to 191 3-9, the highest
at which the stock ha* sold since It
was ex-dividend. St. Paul advanced to
17* 1-8. Toward the end of the first
hour Copper became active and strong.
So far London bought, about 15,006
shares, chiefly Pennsylvania Union Pa
cific and Steel and Amalgamated.
Government bonds unchanged; other
bonds firm.
