When the robbers had gore 1 stepped
out and got among the passengers
One man shot had his side torn all to
pieces with buckshot.
The train backed up to Pixley when
one of the passengers claimed he saw a
man fall at distance from the track
The train went back and we searched
for the man. We soon found him. He
had evidently been instantly killed.
The shot entered near the temple. He
had ticket in his hat for Poso."
From people at Pixley and other
sources it was learned when the train
was stopped that as soon as the express
messenger found what the trouble was
he barred the doors of the car, but the
robbers threw a bomb under it and
gave him such shaking up that he
was glad to open the doors.
The amount taken is variously es-
timated; some placing it from $50, 900 to
$50 600.
Men are now searching the country,
though there is no clew to the direction
taken by the robbers.

lent prospects

favorable for cotton picking, which is
nearing completion. The crop is reported
as good and coming in rapidly in North

South CAROLINA, where other crops are in
fine condition.
RAIN NEEDED IN LOUISIANA.
Rain is badly needed in Louisiana to
improve the condition of late cane and
other crops.

England states the weather was favorable
for securing crops. Corn and buckwheat
have generally been secured, and winter
wheat and rye show good growth.
The potato crop shows a fair yield IN New
Jersey, except on low ground.

A SMALL BANK RESERVE.
The Amount on Hand 81 1880 Less
Than the Law REQUIRES.

The Amount on Hand 81 1888, ,O5O Less
Than the Law Requires.
NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-For the first time
since the week following the May panic of
1884 the bank statement published to-day
shows the reserve held to be less than 25
per cent. of the deposits, as required by
the national banking law. The deposits
amount to $412,213. 800, against which only
S1O1 400, 0OO is held in reserve The deficit
is 81 ,668,05 as the legal requireme4t is
S103, ,U66, ,450. A year ago. with almost
exactly the same amount Of deposits, the
banks held q surplus over the legal require
ments of $l1, All 800. The deficit is almost
wholly caused by the drain of money to the
west and south, where over $6,0O0,000 was
shipped last week, and almost as much went
in the week just preceding.
STAGGERED THE STOCK MARKET.
The statement staggered tho stock market
when it came out just before tue close, but
as nearly all the operators on the floor had
taken the Dull side, they endeavored to resist
any rusn to sell, and were partially success
fuI. As to day was half holiday and no
stock could be delivered, no money was
needed by the brokers, and there was an
interval of quietness in that part Of the
stock exchange, no loans being made.
