New York, February 8.-The Com

The markets here were less active
and were heavy to-day in sympathy
with Americans, which were the weak
market througout the session. London
sold steadily. partly on short account.
New York followed and the close was
rotten. London, judging by English
presidents, fears that the Philippines
are an ugly mouthful.

We think Mr.. MoGraw may as we'll
abandon his proposed attempt to con-
test Mr.. SCOTS election. We do not
believe that the United State Senate
would be a whit less partisan than the
State Senate. Might, not right, pre-
walls in such matters.

HE KILLED HIS
BROTHER-|N-LAW

Greenville, Mo-, May 18Th. N. Halla-
president of the Williamsville,
Greenville and Southern railway, and
president and general manager of the
Halladay-Klatz Land and umb COM
pany. was shot and killed this morning
by his brother-in-law, Monroe A.. john
SON, at the latter's residence in this city.
The tragedy was caused by Johnson's
jealousy of Halladay's attentions to his
wife.
Saturday night johnson left town, os-
tensibly to make a trip to st. Louis. In
stead, he went to Williamsville, n early
this morning returned to Greenville. Co
ing to his home. it is said, he found Halla-
day and Mrs. Johnson together. Johnson
drew his pistol and fired at Halliday, who
fell to the floor. Johnson fired three more
shots into Halladay's body. johnson
then went to several friends, and accom-
panied them to Sheriff Schlater, surren-
dering himself and telling What he had
done. He was Immediately locked up.
Johnson and Halliday married sisters
n was in the employ of the lumbel
company of which Halliday was presi-
dent. Mrs. Johnson is a young and hand.
some woman, n general surprise was
caused by the mention of her name ir
connection with the affair. Halliday wa:
probably the richest man in this county
He was SO years old and lived at Will,
Evansville. His fortune is estimated a
$500, 900. The body will be taken to Will.
iasville tomorrow for burial.
Johnson has made a statement to his
friends, but refuses to discuss the shoot.
ing otherwise beyond saying that he hat
provocation for what he did.

New York, May 2O.-A dispatch from
Manila says: Col. Kobbe remains at
CANADA. General Lawton is marching
south from a Isidro. General Mac
Arthur remains at San Fernando. The
Nebraska regiment has returned to Ma
Mia for a rest.
New York, May 20.-The congregation
of Plymouth church, Brooklyn, at a lively
meeting last night, set apart next Thurs
day night for a discussion on the ques-
ton of the attitude to be assumed by the
church toward the Philippine war. This
action was favored by Thomas G.. Sher-
man n opposed by Stephen ". White
and H. G. King. The result is a victory
for the anti-imperialist faction.
Chicago, May 2O.-Dispatches from New
York announce the engagement of Gladys
Wallace, the actress, who has just closed
an engagement with w. H. Crane, to
Samuel insult, a millionaire of this city.
Mr.. insult confirms the report. Mr.. In
sull is president of the Chicago Edison
Electric Light company and will be at
the head of the Illinois Electric Trans
porlatloH company Wnlcn IS preparing TO

Chicago, May 20.-Responses to the in
vitations sent out by the civic federation
for the conference to be held June 1928
on combinations and trusts, have already
begun coming in. Governors McLaurin
Of Mississippi, Roosevelt of New York,
Wolcott of Massachusetts and Pingree
Of Michigan will appoint delegates and
attend personally if their duties do not
interfere. Favorable replies have also
been received from Governor Poynter of
Nebraska and Governor Mount of In
diana.
New York, May 20.-The suggestion
that a system of trading in flour options
be established on the produce exchange
which has been discussed at intervals
among members of the New York flour
trade, has been revived within the last
few days, but no definite plan regarding
the matter has been formed. A promi-
nent trader in speaking Of the matter,
said that he doubted If the option market
proposed would a the desired effect
of making this city an export center. He
said that a discrimination in railway
rates by which flour and grain may be
shipped here for export much cheaper
than for local delivery had much to do
with keeping business way.

THE TROOPS ARE
NOT DESIRED

Chicago, May 20.-A special to the
Times-Herald from Washington says:
While pressing the United States to agree
to the arbitration of the Alaskan bound
airy question, the British government has
entered objections to the dispatch of adj
ditlonal American troops to the territory
and has made clear her desire to obtain
an Alaskan port. With respect to the
dispatch of three companies Of regulars
to Alaska to patrol the boundary line,
the purpos this government had in view
was to preserve the peace and prevent
a conflict between Canadian and Ameri-
can miners, which, reports from Governor
Brady show, is likely to occur at any
moment. 1t is probable, however that
in view Of Great Britain's objection, the
troops VIII not be sent to Pyramid har-
Dor, as originally intended, but will be
located at a point accessible to the dis
puted territory, SO as to be available in
case OF emergency. In it's representa-
tons to the American government the
British government takes the view that
the dispatch of troops to Alaska is in

ahead. all the way training their Gatling
guns upon the banks and dropping shells
wherever uniforms appeared on the
shore. The guntoats dispersed the in
surgents before San Lucis. After they
had passed, sharpshooters from the trees
across the river harassed the Seventeenth
infantry, which was marching by. tours
along the narrow, wooded road from
which the troops were unable to see the
enemy. The members of one battalion
laid on their faces in the road for a
quarter of an hour, trying to locate the
ri1emen and return their fire. Two
Americans were wounded.
The road wound close to the stream
and was thickly settled. 1t was a pic
turesque march. Many groups of hum
