THE MAJORITY
OF tho Democratic State Ticket In Georgia
May Reach $4,000.

OF tho Democratic State Ticket In Georgia
May Reach $4,000.
ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 10.-The full ex-
tent Of the democratic victory in Geor-
gia is shown as the official returns
come in and it becomes evidene that the
majority of the democratic state ticket
will run close to $4,000.
Official returns from two-thirds Of
the counties in the state and semi-ofi-
cial reports from the others give At
kinson's gross majority 44,234. Wright's
gross majority 8,063; Atkinson's net
majority 80, Ill 1t is possible that the
democratic candidate for secretary Of
state may have $4,000 majority over
his opponent. Democrats claim this
shows best the relative strength of the
tickets.
Gov. Atkinson is running few thou
sand behind the other state house off,
GERS, but that is due to the special
fights which have been made upon
him on local issues.
The hard fight made by the repub-
licans against Atkinson undoubtedly
made a difference of 20, 600 votes. Col
Buck, chairman of the republican COM
mittee acknowledges that the dems-
cratic majority would have reached
10000 or more, but for the active ef-
forts Of the republicans.

TRADE REvgW.

Distinctly Better Condftions Have Aps
pesPed Of Late-Somswhst Larger Ems
ploy ment Of LAbor.
NEW YORK, Oct 10 R. g. Dun & Co.
says Saturday in their weekly review
Of trade:
Distinctly better conditions have ap-
peared Of late and are reflected in some.
what larger employment of labor, in
large transactions and in continued
buying Of materials for manufacture.
A great part Of the change is due
to those resistless laws of supply
and demand, which take wheat
where it is wanted and goli where
1t IL wanted. India is waiting
for cargoes of wheat on the way from
Pacific states, just as Australia and
South Africa were not long ago. The
disappears and the surplus from Russia
and European countries Is reduced, ac-
cording to late estimates, $4,000, 600
bushels. Happily this country has q
supply which official accounts have not
correctly measured, if actual move
ments do not greatly mislead.
A feature of large importance, too,
IL the unusually heavy foreign de-
mand for corn, which is a never fail
ing sign of deficient crops abroad,
where other grains are used instead Of
wheat when the latter becomes scarce
and dear.
It is another good sign that railroad
earnings, amounting to S3s, 745,31s in
the United States for September show
smaller decrease than in August--x
per cent against 81 per cent compared
with last year.
capacity of 112,7S2 tons weekly,
against 129, 500 September and 217, 800
November 1 last year, while unsold
stocks decreasd 81, ,S52 tons; but if those
Of steel making concerns were includ-
ed, it would probably show an in
crease. Buying Of materials continues,
but Bessemer is shade weaker, S11. 40
ct Pittsburgh. The demand for pro-
ducts is SO light, and so much business
Is held back pending the election that
decreasing output is not an unhealthy
sign. Minor metals change little. The
upward rush of hides has advanced
prices at Chicago SIX per cent for the
week to the highest average since last
November. Prices of leather rose az
per cent. with small dealings. Shoes
are selling very little, as consumers re-
fuse to pay higher prices and dealers
remember buying at high and selling
at low prices last winter. Orders for
the next season are few and many con-
Germs may close for time.
Textile manufacturers are gaining a
little and the buying of wool by large
mills covers 7,6es, 800 pounds for the
week, against 11,es9, 200 last year.
Prices advanced about one per cent in
September and have since advanced
even more, though a few of the mills
have orders for long time. Buy
ing of cotton has been checked by
heavy receipts from plantations, Le22,- :
287 bales having come into sight in
September against 542,394 last year.
| Speculation in stocks has yielded a
little, about L13 for railroads and So
cents for trusts. The outward move
ment of money to the interior has bcen
81, ,0O0, 900 tor the week, and little is
doing in commercial loans, with retes
about one-half per cent. higher than a
week ago.
Failures for the week were 296 in
the United States against 26s last
year, and 46 in Canada, against 53 last
| year.

1t is surprising to many that football
players and other athletes regard a sprain
or bruise of 80 little consequence. One
reason of this is, they know how to treat
such injuries 80 as to recover from them
in few days, while others would be
laid up for two or three weeks, if not
longer. Writing from Central State Nor.

INSANE MAN
Kills His Wife and Two Children-Thel
Cuts His Throat With Razor.

Kills His wife and Two Children-Then
Cots His Throat With Razor.
NoBLEsv1LLE, Ind, Oct. 10.-Evi-
dences Of horrible tragedy were dis
covered Friday morning at the home
of Albert Bray, farmer, living three
miles from this city. The bodies Of
Bray, his wife and their two children,
aged two and nine, upon the floor of a
bedroom, told the story.
Bray was still alive, but the others
were dead. The father expired shortly
after the discovery without gaining
consciousness.
A bloody az and razor were lying at
his side, and he committed the butch
cry with these.
Bray was aged 88, q member of the
Friends church. He had always borne
good reputation.
Bray had not been in good health for
some time. He had often complained
of pain in his head.
Mrs. Dora Way was the domestic in
the household, and she was the only
one who escaped. She was sleeping in
side room with the youngest child,
Edna, aged 3.
Bray struck his wife, Emma, aged 90,
in the head with an ak. He then cut
her throat with razor. Carl, aged
nine. was killed in the same way.
The insane murderer then proceeded
to MrR- Ways room and silently drew
his sleeping child from under the Gov
ers, taking her into an adjoining room,
where he put her to death. After that
he slashed the razor across his own
throat, cutting It from ear to ear.
Mra Way knew nothing Of what had
happened until she arose to prepare
the breakfast, when the bloody bodies
met her sight
Mrs Bray was daughttr of Daniel
Burgess, leading merchant of New.
castle. The family has been promi.
nent In this county.
Mrs Bray and the children had been
struck by some blunt instrument and
evidently stunned before the razor was
used. She was found lying on q bed
and the oldest child, Q boy, on q
lounge. Both died without . strug-
gle. The partially deaf hired girl
was not awakened. although . younger
child, htkle girl who slept beside her
was taken into another room
and then killed. Bray was found ly-
ing on the porch outside uncenscious
and died shortly afterwards. He had
besn sick for some time with typhoid
fever and was probably insane at the
time of the tragedy.
Hundreds from this city visited the
place Friday. 1t is the most horrible
tragedy ever committed in this county
and every one is in fever of excite.
ment

There 10 no Rsspsct or Safety for
American People.


GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Oct ia
prominent resident Of this city, who
once resided In Cuba but escaped With
others In small boat to the United
Statss, received letter from one Of
his sisters in that country Saturday.
He read the accounts Of the march Of
Gomez to the west, and knew he must
have orossed the plantation Of his
brother-in-law on the Rouque, but he
could only imagine their fate. The
letter was dated at the American con-
sulste In Matan4as, September 90, and
was written in Spanish. The letter
reads a. follows:
1--WE are ell together in this city,
where we have been since January.
Our home has been abandoned since
the Gomez invasion. We have been
trying to leave this country and settle
In Alabama or Louisiana and will prob
ably do 30. You can not imagine the
state Of affairs in this unhappy country.
The Spanish arrest and often murder
the people in the country, and nobody
Is sure in the evening that he will be
living in the morning. There Is no re-
spect or safety for American people.
The island Is literally desolated, every.
thing burned and destroyed It is i'm.
possible to do any business or earn q
dollar In this unhappy island and the
people Of this once rich country are lit
orally dying Of starvation. We do not
know what the end will be, but the
present conditions are desperate
American citizens are shot down with.
out the semblance Of a trial, the muir.
der always being outside the cities.
The Spaniards start out with the pris.
oners, claiming that they are to remove
them to other cities, but they shoot
them down and then claim the prison
ers attempted to escape. Cubans are
winning nearly every battle and will
certainly win their contest for free.
