Craw ford Moore. q travelling salesman

shot Maj. James NJ. Laing IA he was
solng UP the stairs leading to his office
on South Fourth street In the Laing
block. Moore fired four shots, one OF
the bullets taking effect In the lower
right thigh and passing upward was
afterward found under the skin near
the groin, where IL was cut out by the
ply sician. The bullets were from
.iS-calibre revolver. Moore was arrest
ell and placed In jail. The major was
taken to his home. where surgical aid
was given him. The shooting grew out
of the attentions Of Laing to Moore's
wife.
shortly before o'clock both men met
at the bottom of the stairs leading to
Major Laing's office, on south Fourth
street where they remained for some
time earnestly engaged In conversa-
tion. From what could be ascertained
by those who were near. Moore de-
manded a sum OF money for despoiling
the relations between himself and his
wife. The major refused to comply
with the request and as he started to
go upstairs Moore fired four shots, one
of which took effect. For a number OF
years Major Laing has been paying at.
tention to Mrs. Moore, and this fact
was known to almost every man and
woman In town.
Their relations were open and no
torious and Moore himself was well
| aware Of 1t. Moore and Major
Laing were on frierdly terms; at least
they were frequently seen together.
For some time Major Laing has been
trying to break away from the woman,
! and those who are familiar with the

from Europe about two months ago
having been absent for several years.

Ambassador Thomas y. Bayard de-
lvcrsd the inaugural address last
evening 10 the Philosophic society. 1t
was entitled individual Liberty. the
Germ of National Progress and Per-
marcnce.
Mr.. Bayard spoke at length OF the
wonderful growth aud development OF
the United States and earnestly evoked
the opposition of his hearers to "state
socialism" In all forms He also
sounded q note Of warning against the
many proposals Of political intcrfer-
cnce aud state management under tho
garb of philanthropic aid or pater-
nalism.
After discussing what he termed tho
tyranny Of labor organizations, Mr..
Boyard said "In my own country 1
have witnessed the insn table growth
of that form OF State socialism styled
protection, which, | believe, Inns done
more TO foster class legislation and
create inequality of fortune, corrupt
public life, Danish men OF independ-
cnt mind and character from public
councils. blunt public conscience and
piUce poiitlcS upbU tnt low lCVcl oI u

strife, IL has succeeded in obtaining
control of the sovereign power Of tax

engine for selfish and private profit
Its allied beneficiuries and combines
are called trusts" and gradually tho
commercial marine Of the United
States has disappeared the few ves-
sells lately bniiL being an exception
and proving the rule, as they were
only built by making o breach In the

1T Is incorrect" said Mr.. Bavard,
''to speak Of protection as u national
policy. Tint could never be, rs 1t
will never be anything but tho foster.

Prices OF All Farm Machinery Will soon
BE Advanced.
KANSAS City, No., Nov. 0.--There is
to be a general advance in prices of
all farm implements and machinery
before the supply Of goods for the com
ing season is shipped from the factor
les. The matter has been considered
and has received the Endorsement of
nearly all of the strong associations OF
manufacturers of the country. Those
who have not already agreed to the
advance are not strong enough TO COM
bat the combine for increase OF price,
and even II they were, they lack the
disposition.
The advance has been ordered by
the combine. and when the new price
lists from the factories make their
appearance they will show an increase
Of from 81 to SIS on wagons, and from

other machinery used by farmers.
The advance Is to include everything

LONDON. Nov. 1.-The Times cor.
respondent in Constantiuople tcle-
graphed to-day: "The condition Of
things here is regarded unbearable
by all the diplomats and the Sultan,
whose sole idea of policy is to play
oil one power against the other, is
nonplussed ut their unanimity. All the
powers are friendly, and they give
him sound, but most dista ste ful coun-
sci. None of their manifestations
have any selfish purpose, aifording ma
tcrial for the manufacture Of political
capital. Among the advice rendered
hm,Inuch bears upon the insecurity of
the capital as evidenced by September's
riots. which left the Mohammedans in
state of unprecedented excitement.
But tho remedy suggested is an In
creased number of spies, arrests or
secret executions, and therefore the
advice OF the powers does not meet
with response. Much also has been
said about the bloodshed in the prov
iuceS and the enormous detrinlent to
trade In the greater part of Asia Minor
and Syria. But the only answer is the
aunihilation OF the reform scheme by
the appointment of two palace crea-
lures to the board OF control OF which
one of them is president. No where,
however, are fears entertained of any
wholesale fanHtical outbreak against
the Christians. The danger lies quite
in another. direction"

In view of the many startling re-

is possibly just to believe that some OF

the main fact does not appear to be in
