These facts have led TO an examina-

States as a nickel-producing country.
All OF the nickel used here has been pur-
chased abroad, Canada being the nearest
source of supply. From information

a probability that the metal exists in
this country to q considerable extent.

New YORK, October 24.-Continued
liquidation in sugar refneries was again
the most disquieting factor in the
stock market to-day, but added to this
was higher rates for money losses in
earnings on ST. Paul and dispatch as
serting that Burlington, Rock Island,
and ST. Paul would give the Union Pa
cifc no more through business, and
would charge the last-named full local
rates on all business originating at points
on its line. The weakness in silver was
also considerable factor, but the ex-
citement in sugar refineries was the over
shadowing element in the movement OF
prices.
EXCITEMENT IN SUGAR.
The general expectation was that the
stock would reach still lower figures to-
day, and at the opening there was an I'M
usually large crowd waiting to execute
orders. A scene of unusual excitement
followed the tap of the gayel. The Off
cial opening price was that of last evo-
ming. but sales were made at several diff
ferent prices at different points IN the
crowd, and as tho bulk OF orders were to
sell the price was soon carried down
from 66i 10 GA. A reaction followed
the execution OF early orders and 60l
was reached, when the professional bears
took hand in and forced the price OH
again, the downward movement not
being checked until GIG had been
touched. This is loss of III per cent.
since Wednesday evening aud l3s since
Monday. There was what looked like
an organized effort to advance the stock
at lowest prices, however, and traders
made a rush to cover their shorts with
the effect of carrying the stock late in the
afternoon beyond the opening figure OF
the day nearly ! per cent.
THE GENERAL LIST.
The general list was held compare
lively steady during the forenoon, but
the dispatch from Chicago in regard to
| the Union Pacific and the Changers was
signal for q combined attack upon the
stocks of those roads, and material losses
were sustained by all Of them. The
vigorous rally in sugar. however,
brought the regular list along with it,
especially as money rates were easier
late in the day, and i'll most of the LIST
the early losses were about recovered,
Union Pacific alone being sluggish.
The final trading was large and a
strong tone prevailed in all portions OF
the list, the close being active and
strong at about the level OF opening
figures. The final changes Of the day
show majority of losses, but they arc
generally confined TO fractional amour e
Union Pacific is down, however, / p

Especial telegram TO the Dispatch.l
PETTRsBURG, Va, October 24.-She-
riff Powell, Of Nottoway county, arrived
in this city tonight, bringing with him
Walter johnson, the negro who is
charged with criminally assaulting Mrs,
Elizabeth Majors in that county on the
9Th OF September. He was brought
here for safekeeping, rs threats had
been made OF lynching him if he was
allowed 10 remain in the county Jail to-
night.
JouysoN's STATEMENT.
Johnston still says that he is innocent
Of the crime, but acknowledges that he
was in two hundred yards Of the place
on the morning when the assault was
committed. He says that the day be-
fore the assault was committed a negro
man named John Jefferson made pro-
position 10 him 10 commit the assault
that he went with him next day, and
from where he was standing saw Jeiier-
son throw Mrs. Majors TO the ground
and tie her hands behind her and put
sticks in her mouth and ears. lie says
that is all he saw and that he never put
his hands upon the lady or was nearer
her than two hundred yards.

made any confession, and says that this
is the statement he made last night to
the crowd when they had him in the
woods and threatened to hang him un-
less he told all he knew about it. 1T Is
learned that tho reason that Mrs. Majors
did not identify him when he was first
brought before her was the fear that if
she did her husband, who WAS present,
would shoot the negro on the spot that
about two hours afterwards she inform
ed constable that Johnson was the
man, and on that ground he was rear.
rested. Ii is also stated, and on good
authority, that johnson confessed TO
