A MURDERER IDENTIFIED.
His Attempt at suicsde Leads 10 His
DiRcoyery.

Jersey Shore, Pa, Sept. l2.-George w
Adams, who attempted to commit suicide
after being arrested for jumping an
eighteen-dollar board bill, has been iden-
Titled as the murderer of Mrs Mary
Rodgers, his aunt.
Adams killed her on June T. 1887, and the
Philadelphia police have been seeking him
ever since but could not discover his
whereabouts. The attempt at suicide
aroused suspicious of the police here and
they secured a description of Frank
Adams, the murderer, which described
perfectly the prisoners appearance.
Adams had cut his throat severely, but
will live.

The opening day OF the market this
week was uneventful and unimportant.
as far as 1t was any indication of the
future attitude of the market. There was
some buying and also some selling by
good houses and by the larger interests
but the movements of stocks was frac-
tional and irregular. The net changes
for the day were small with a slight ad-
vance, perhaps. The selling of the day
was caused largely by renewal of the
higher rates for money. The Govern
ment crop report also had its depressing
effect. The London market was unsettled
by the assassination OF the Austrian en-
press and by the fear of clash between
English and French interests in the Up
per Nile region, and British and French
interests in the Upper Nile region, and
British consos were lower. Considerable
disappointment was felt in the New York
market that the reports of gold engage
ments in London for import were not con-
firmed. The high price at which gold is
held in the London markets retards the
movement that the exchange market
would otherwise have warranted Cali
money got up to 4 per cent yesterday but
considerable business was done at H.
Some bankers expect still higher rates
this week and rates for time loans have
been marked up one-half per cent.
The earnings of the Missouri. Kansas
and Texas for the first week of Septem-
Der decreased s23, 900. The earnings of the
Denver and Rio Grande for the same pc
riod increased S911. St. Louis and San
Francisco decreased 81, ,357 Chesapeake

The action of Tobacco yesterday was
peculiar, and attracted considerable at
tention. The stock had another advance
in the earlier part of the day of which it
subsequently lost nearly everything. Dur

vance to l45 IL, making the net gain for
the day point and a half. Keene Moore

To the delight Of our citizens, a
bulletin was issued from the MINER
office Saturday morning stating that
the Oliver Mining company had Sc
cured control of the Pioneer mine, one
of the richest properties in this vic
Unity. At first it was not believed,
but later in the day dispatches and
the Duluth papers confirmed the re-
port and the bulletin was indicated.
The news was rather pleasing to all
inhabitants as the successful negOtia-
tion of the deal means much. The
Pioneer has now been idle nearly 10
months and the city has been short
the fruits represented by the labor of
something like 300 men, using very
low estimate, and figuring in round
numbers something like $500. 90 day.
The deal was affected Friday in
Duluth. The negotiations which had
been in progress since the closing of
the mine, were concluded at noon and
H. W. Oliver is now the possessor of
a 5o-year lease on the property direct
from the fee-owners. He also possess
ses the larger part of the stock of the
Pioneer Iron company and will secure
the balance within short time.
While Oliver had not. up to yester-
day, the lease from the fee owners In
his hands, the papers were deposited
in one of the Duluth banks properly
signed and executed, and as regards
the stock not yet under his control,
it is said Mr. Oliver has concluded ar
rangements for the purchase of the
few shares and it is thought the for
NAL transfer of the same will be made
very shortly. Until this is done, the
transaction will not be finally closed.
The lease stipulates that the mini
mum output Of the mine shall not be
less than 500, 900 tons per year. The
minimum output is to be every year
about 100000 tons more than the
mine has produced during the ten
years Of its existence under the old
regime. The securing of the mine by
the Oliver people means that this
company will in short time become
a heavy shipper on this as well as the
Mesaba range. The Oliver people
now control the Pioneer, Zenith and
"26" mines; the Mallett- Hartmann
property and several Others which
have not as yet been publicly men
toned. Should active operations be
begun at all the holdings 1t would
mean the employment of force of
