The Money market, which at the beginning Ofthe
week opened with better and increasing supply
olourreney, closes tonight very tight, and with
apparently growing stringe1ey-st least, SO far
the ability to handle paper il concerned, it he
ing rare case where any discounts are obtained,
except by regular dspositors, or those whom the
Banks feel some Obligation to favor, The Govern
ment during the week has been steadily checking
upon the National Banks all over the country, and
those at this point have come In for their proper
tioa, having been called upon for over half mil
lion. The tendency Of this heavy draft was Of
course to tighten things up materially, and in con-
neotion with the fact that the deposit liue is
psTstively light, owing to the duIlnesH pervsdlng
commercial circles, tbs OF the strngency are
easily understood. Fortunately, however, the de-
mAnd upon the Banks from the public-at least,
that portion OF it whirh they would feel called up
on to favor-hsve not been large, but on the con.
trary, have rather fayorei the condition Of the
market and they have at no time been very severe
ly pressed. They have besn compelled, however,
to refuse good deal Of outside paper. Exchange
is in fair supply but the market is qui t. and rates

SUICIDE IN JAIL.--David Hylands Of ST.
John, N. B., who was committed to Jail Aug.
5th.to awaitthe action of the grand jury at the
November term Of the Supreme Judicial Court
on a complaint charging him with adultery
committed suicide in Jail yesterday noon.
The deed was committed with razor he
had to shave himself with. At noon he called
to one Of the prisoners that was in thewalk,
saying, @Look hereI see what that woman has
caused me to dop-showing his throat and ex-
hibting small cash he had made with the
razor, which he was trying to tear open with
his fingers. The prisoner immediately called
Mr.. Robert Pennell, the turnkey, who immedi-
ately went to the cell of Hyland, but before he
got there Hyland had cut his throat again,
from ear to ear, severlng the windpipe and the
principal arteries. He was sensible and at the
command of the turnkey dropped the razor,
and then sank upon the floor of the cell He
recovered sufficiently to be able to help himself
a little in being laid upon the bed, bat expired
in ten minutes. -a sa 500
In a prayer book, he had written to his wife
as follows:--'T want you to get my clothes and
give them to Johnny and David This two sonsl

Court-We don't want any speeches. Let
the room be cleared.
When the doors were reopened the witness
came in and the President of the Court read
from DeHarts military law, to show that the
Judge Advocate was justified in the course he
took. Besides, when the Judge Advocate an
tieipated question of a leading character he
had the right to require the question to be re-
duced to writing and submitted to him. He
was right either in asking the room to be clear
ed OF witness to temporarily retire.
Baker-To that have no objection: the
Court settles that question. The examination
of Col. Tanning was then resumed.
Col. Chapman read to the Court letter
from Capt. West, Military Superintendent of
the Old Capitol Prison, to the effect that Werz
is treated as leniently as is consistent with his
position and compatible with his duties. He
has cotton bedding same rations as soldiers
of the U. S. Army, with the addition, four,
times per week of the principal fresh vegeta-
bles in the market. IF unwel he is furnished
with the diet prescribed by the surgeon of the
prison. He is also permitted to secure such
eatibles as he may be able to purchase. The
only restraint is such as to prevent his doing
injury to himself Two or three witnesses
were examined without eliciting anything new.
The Court adjourned until tomorrow.
