Murderer Is theC Cry.

Special to State Chronicle.
SANFORD, n. c., Dec. 2.-News has
just been received here by special mes
senger of the most terrible tragedy
known in the history of Moore county,
which happened in Packet township
about fifteen miles distant from Sanford
Randall Mcdonald, age about 20 years
and two sisters, ages 75 and 63
years, all unmarried resided together.
Last night about 7 O'Clock some one
opened it and an unknown man entered
and made for gun standing in some
part of the room, at the same time draw
ing pistol from his pocket. He picAeo
up the gun and demanded their money,
and deliberately shot dead the older of
the two sisters with the pistol, the ball
entering the forehead just over the eye,
then shot the younger one, the ball en-
tering through the nose and passing out
through the back of the head. She fell
with her head in the fire, calling on the
assassin to save her from the fire, which
he refused to do, her bonnet and
her chair being burned. She also was
burned to some extent before her
brother could save her She will die.
He then robbed Mr. Mcdonald of wha,
money he had on his person, which was
few dollars. and made his escape be
fore alarm could be made and help could
come, taking the gun with him. He
was thought to be negro and was after
their money. Diligent search is being
made for the wretch and he will not fare
we'll when found. The people are cry
ing, Lynch the murderer!" and it vii
be done if he is caught.

BRUSSELS, Dec 2.-In the report to
the international monetary conference
to day the special committee appointed
to consider various plans, declared that
the proposal of Mr.. Alfred DeRothschild
was extremely interesting and worthy at
some time of serious attention. The
committee had decided, however, to
especially recommend to the conference
the Moritz Levy plan of the withdrawal
from circulation of all bank notes and
gold coins below the nominal value of
20f. and the issue of silver and paper
currency having the same purchasing
power as gold coin below 20f.
1t is understood that the delegates
from France, Italy, Belgium, Norway,
Sweden and Russia were opposed to the
Sothschild plan. The delegates of the
Latin Union disapproved of the plan on
account of the opposition to make 43
pence the maximum purchasing price of
silver and refused to be conciliated even
when this figure was raised to higher
one.
The American delegates are determined
to persist in advocating their plans of
bl metallism and believe that the con-
ference should remain in session until
there has been an opportunity for
thorough discussion.
Mr.. Bertram Currie, an English dele
gate, is using all his influence to bring
the conference to an early conclusion,
apparently in the interest of monometal-
ism

Little Excitement on ,Chanee.

BY Telegraph 10 state CnrOn1cle.
New YORK, Dec 2.-The effect Of the
news of Jay Gould's death on the stock
exchange this morning was anxiously
awaited. There was an interval of nearly
an hour between the time that the first
news of his death reached the street and
the opening of the stock exchange and
nothing else but the death Of the sage
fnancier and the possible effect Of his
death on the properties with which he was
prominently identified, was discussed.
When the market opened there was a
lerge crowd in the board room, and for
q long time there was considerable offer
ings of the Goulders, notably Missouri
Pacific, Western Union. Manhattan and
Atchison stocks were also sold to con-
siderable extent, but they only broke
fractionally Missouri Pacific made the
greatest, 3-4 per cent. to "a, but recov-
cred in the first fifteen minutes to SO.
The market then steaC led somewhat.
There was very little excitement at the
opening of the market.
