London,—The Bank of England to
day increased Ita rate of discount to
eight per cent
ThU. action was taken by the Bank
of England In order to cheek the out
flow of feold.
It is suggested in financial circles
that the next, move possibly may be
suspension of the bank act which
regulates the issue of bank notes in
England.
Not Since 1866.
While iheie has been comparatively
little excitement over the financial

The main entrance to the Bank of
England was besieged by holders of
notes waiting lo have them changed
into gold. Most of them were mes
sengers from the smaller banks or
from business houses, but occasion

butcher’s boy rubbing shoulders with

Do Lincoln County Man,
Arrested Yesterday; Was
Bound Over to U. S. Court
This Morning.
Jno. B. Flanigan, a well to do white
farmer of Lincoln county, was arrest
ed yesterday on a United States war
rant, chanting Illicit distilling, and

Sheriff G T. Wright, of Lincoln,
was the government's principal wit
ness. He stated that he did not know

igan had told him that It was hts. He
Held In answer to questions asked by

day he saw him drive up to the still
til company with a negro and unload
two 100-pound Hacks of sugar Into
two hogshesds and stir It up.
The witness said that when Mr.
Flanigan made the statement that the
still was his Mr. Jno. A. Martin, of
Lincoln, as present.
Mr Martin was a witness for the
government but strongly stated that
he did not know who owned the dis
tillery. He saw Mr. Flanigan there, he
said, about a year ago last January,
and he had a gun. He said that ne
gro Qulllin Williams, ran the still.
Several other witnesses were sub
poenaed and were present for the
hearing. *
The arrest was made by Deputy U.
S. .Marshall E. C. Pierce, at the home
of Mr. Flanigan, which is about four
or five miles from the still. The still
Is about seven miles from the Savan
