ANTICIPATING WINDOW.
The Bank of England Will Issue
Certificates Against Silver Bull

NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-There was a
rumor in Wall street yesterday, which,
considering the discussion of Secretary
WINDOWS silver proposition. occasioned
considerable comment. Messrs. Zim-
norman & Forshay announced that they
had received advices from London to
the effect that the Bank of England is
about to exercise its right never hitherto
asserted, to use silver to the extent of
One-third of its reserve, and issue 81
notes in silver against it. The
dispatches also said that the bank had
purchased 93,0G0,000 of silver bull
ion in expectation of the action.
There has been a great deal of silver
talk for the last few days, which, with
the recent heavy shipments of bullion to
England and the advance in price, has
occasioned more or less speculation.
Tie larger foreign firms in the street,
while they declared that they had re-
ceived nothing confirming the rum0red
action of the Bank of England, said
that such step was by nc means un-
likely: on the contrary, that there were
many reasons why such an issue would
be advantageous to England. One
banker went so far as to say that if the
Bank Of England should exercise this
right, there would be such period of
speculation and general initiation i'll the
country as has not been experienced
since the discovery of gold in California.
Mr.. Forshay said that he was confident
that the dispatch which he received was
well founded. "There have been," he
continued. VERY heavy expectations Of
silver to England recently. the last ship
ment being last Friday, when we sent
over 100000 ounces. l think, however,
that cur dispatch intended to say that
the bank had accumulated 100000
ounces or about $4,000, 900, instead of
3,00U,000 pounds. But the former is a
very large sum. / believe that if such
a step toward silver certificates be taken
in England, it will have been taken
merely in anticipation of MI. Windows
plan. Not alone this, but it will be
a great advance toward the estab-
fishing of bi-metallism and an interna-
tional currency. For this fact is in
duDitable, that England and the United
States control the money markets OF the
world. If England should follow our
example and adopt silver as the basis of
part of its circulation, Fance, Germany
and, of course. other countries of Europe
could not fail to follow the lead"

RAILROAD WORLD.

The sensational article printed by q
morning paper yesterday, regarding an
alleged effort on the part of the WiscGn-
sin Central people to catch business by
cutting the rate from st. Paul to New
York 81 below the regular rate, proves
to have been as unreliable as the alleged
railroad news of that paper almost in
variably proves. The story is that an
aged German applied to Bothman &
Lohrbauer, OF Minneapolis, for four Sec
ond-class tickets to New DIRK. and was
offered tickets at SIG apiece, this being
stated to be "a in excess of the rates
charged upon all Northwestern lines.
An agreement was reached for that
price, and the agent repaired with his
customer to the Wisconsin Central of
flee to secure the tickets. While there
the prospective purchaser, iaquiring of
clerk the price Of second-class ticket
TO New York, learned that the regular
price was S22, and promptly cancelled
his agreement with Bothman. The
man was again approached at the union
depot by an agent of Bothman, who
offered to sell him the tickets for S2l.
This fact is taken as the basis for the
article referred to and the as
sertion that cut OF 81 from
the regular rate had been made.
A glance at the rate sheet. how
ever betrags the fact that S21 rate,
Minneapolis to New York via Montreal
and Bellows. Falls, has been in effect
since Jan. 6. This rate was quoted by
the Wisconsin Central to the passengers
in question, who, however, had by this
time become suspicious of the Bothman
combine, and had bought tickets from
the Omaha people at the S22 rate. AS
far as can be seen, there has been no
cut made in this connection.
General Passenger Agent Kenyon was
seen yesterday by GLOBE reporter
relative to what action he would take IN
the matter. In reply to the question
that gentleman handed out a slip of
paper upon which was Inscribed
go into effect on Jan. %. st. Paul and
Minneapolis to Chicago, second class,
"a: Rock Island. 81: Peoria, 1878; st.
Louis, Sl1.50, first class limited. THAT"
said Mr.. Kenyon, lis answer enough. [
have not inquired into the truth or fall
sity OF the allegations against the Wis
conSln Central. 1 haven't time to run
down every rumor of this sort which
comes to my ears, but as | have the best
of evidence that this sort of thing is
being done under the ruse, do the only
thing to be done under the circum-
StanceS.n
MIR. Kenyon expresses a determine
ton to meet any effort at secret ticket
selling at reduced rates by openly sell
ing to the same points at the same
prices as those discovered to have been
made.

Outlaw JEFF Hunt Dies With His
Boots On.

SANTA FE, n. NJ. Jan. 21.-lt having
been learned that JEFF Hunt, danger
Gus character wanted on several
charges, had returned TO Seven Rivers
Saturday, Deputy Sheriffs Perry and
John Berkeley were sent down to
make the arrest. They found the
man at Pierce's store Sunday. Enter
ing the place suddenly, Perry drew his
gun on Hunt and told Berkeley to search
him. Before this could be done Hunt
drew revolver, knocked Perry's gun
aside and fired. The bali grazed the
officers face and knocked him to the
floor stunned. In general shooting
which followed the desperate Hunt re-
ceived fatal wound through the chest.
Deputy Berkeley was shot between the
eyes, but strange as it may seem. the
wound has not proved fatal. The doc
tors prObed the wound four inches
but could not find the ball, and the
wounded man is doing well, with
chances for recovery. A young man
named Tom, arrested for firing the shot
into the officers forehead, was taken to
Roosevelt and lodged in Jail. He is one
of a party who terroriZed the town of

MURDERIs CHARGED.
Father and Daughter Jailed for
Poisoning a Neighbor.

LAFAYETTE. Ind, Jan. 21-Mrs.
Elma G.. Whitehead. an unattractive
but wealthy widow residing with
her father, David Meharry, one
of the wealthiest farmers of this
county, eighteen miles south of the city,
was placed in Jail here to-day, charged
Jointly with Rev. w. F. f. Petit with
murder in the first degree. The arrest
was made on an Indictment returned by
the grand jury last evening, a spe-
clal session having been called
TO consider the case. Pet
tit, an ex-Alethodist minister, was
arrested at Columbus, Ohio. Dec. 5,
charged with the murder of his wife last
July, by administering strychnine. He
was granted preliminary hearing, and
his bail fixed at $4,000, but he was UNI
able to give it,and the warrant issued for
him waSread to him in Jail this morning.
Mrs. Whitehead was suspected of COM
plicity in the crime. When the grand
jury convened last week Mrs. White
head was summoned as witness, but
declined to testify on the ground that
her answers would have a tendency to
criminate her. She was ordered to an
sWer by the court. and was held to con-
tempt for not doing so. On a petition
from the grand jury, who said that her
testimony was not required. she was re-
leased by the court. The indictment
against her followed at once.

GALVESTON, Tex, Jan. 2l.-A terri
BILE tragedy was enacted in the court
house here to-day, i'll which Kyle Terry,
nephew of the late Judge David Terry,
was instantly killed and TWO men
badly wounded. The killing was the
outcome of the Fort Bend troubles which
resulted some time ago in such a bloody
battle between the citizens of Rich
mOnd. Some months ago, Terry, who
was tax assessor of Fort Bend county,
and member of what is known as the
NOOdpecker party. had a difficulty
with the three Gibson boys, all MEM
bers OF the Jaybird party. Five weeks
later Terry met one of the Gibson broth
ers in Wharton. and killed him. When
the case came up for trial Terry got
change of venue to Galveston county.
Galveston had nothing TO do with the
case further than to give fair trial.
Judge Parker, indicted for murder in
Fort Bend county, also secured a change
of venue to this county, and the cases
were set down for to-day and witnesses
for both the prosecution and defense

left towards the stairway and had
just reached the second step
when the first shot was fired:
Ii struck him under the right arm and
came out of the left breast, and literally
tore his heart to pieces. There was a
moments lull, and then four or five
tons. One passed through the arm of
Judge Weston, of Fort Bend county;
another through the leg of Henry Pit
tie. GalveStonian. Eyewitnesses say
three men were shooting, naming them

Mitchell, all from TT. Bend county and
all .JaybiTds. The citizens of Calves

immediately after the shooting six az
rests were made. The principal one,
Vol Gibson, who fired the first and only
fatal shot, is young man about twenty
five years old, and treats the matter
eoolly. Gibson was the oldest man
in the attacking party, four Of the
others being under twenty-one years of
age. 1t was evident that the intention
was to kill Weston and Barker as well
as Terry, the two latter because they
were WOOdpeckers. Judge Parker is
member of the state Legislature from
Fort Bend county, and is charged with
having been the cause of the late riot in
Richmond. His trial for murder comes
up tomorrow. He is charged with the
killing of negro woman during the

The Cabinet Shuns Discussion of
the Insult offered to Secretary
Proctor.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-The cabinet
meeting to-day was attended by all the
members, except Secretary Blaine. The
session was shorter than usual, and the
only question of general Importance
considered was in regard to the ces-
sion of certain portions of Cherokee
lands to the United States under re-
cent acts of congress. No conclusion,
however, was reached in this matter
1t was rumored here this morning that
the cabinet proposed to take cogni-
Zance of the insult recently offered to
Secretary Proctor at Aberdeen, Miss,
because of his refusal to take official
notice of the death of jefferson Davis.
1t was stated that the citizens of that

honor of MIR. Davis, and placed the flag
at halt mast. They then stuffed an old
suit of clothes with straw, and labeled
it Secretary of War;" and suspended
The effigy from a rope stretched across
the street between the federal building
and tho structure opposite. 1t is
learned, however, from the very best
authority that the subject was not even
mentioned at to-day'S meeting, and
further, that it is not likely to receive
any official consideration, unless it is
established that federal Officeholders
participated in the transaction.

Fears Entertained of Race War

APALAcHICoLA, Fla, Jan. 21.-The
sawmills here employ negro labor prin-
cipally. Last weeks the negroes held
a meeting and resolved to have ten
hours and more pay, and refused to
take orders. Last Monday the negroes
refused to so to work, and the mills
shut down. The negroes not in the
strike were prohibited from working.
Two worked at the Kennedy mills yes
terday. Last night one of them was
assassinated in his house. The negroes
who are at work are alarmed, and the
whites fear more trouble, as the negroes
are armed. The governor has been tel
egraphed for troops and ammunition,
and they are expected tomorrow. The
militia here held meeting to-day, and
will patrol the town tonight. Other
wise all is quiet.
