Mrs. wilIifOrd Wins.

Winnsboro special to News and
Courier: The more important criminal
cases have already been reported. on
the civil side the most important case
was that of Mrs. Addie Williford
against the Aetna Life Insurance com.
pany. The plaintiffs husband carried
a policy in the company. A little more
than twelve months previous to his
death, when he presented his premium
the same was refused on the ground
that the insured was drinking to such
degree as to impair his health. His
next premium was also offered and re-
fused on the same ground. The COM
pany offered to pay the insured the
cash value of his policy at the time OF
their refusal to accept further premi-
ums, but this he refused. The suit was
for the full amount Of the policy, S2,O00
and interest on same. The jury found
in favor of the plaintiff for the full
amount. Judge Gary reserved his de-
cision as to the motion for a new trial,

has in speaking Of comical things, he
drawled: whether you know it or not

quarrelsome. because I do not allow
him to fight; but he will not allow
himself to be imposed upon, and we'll

AMERICANS STRONGER

LETTER TONE PREVAILED IN
NEW YORK.
Changers Were Especially Firm
Trading Was Exceedingly
PrOfessional-Money Easy.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL

mn biAS III LLAMA
New York. Aug. a-rhe London marke,
was generally firm and American stocks
gained ground in the early trading and
kept 1t without serious reaction. Consuls
maintained their recent strength at s3ssc.
The Bank of England rate was unchanged
at 3 per cent. and the return. in spite OF a
heavy loss of bullion during the week
showed ar exceptionally large proportion of
reserve TO liabilities.
Money conditions were easy I'm London
and, although exchange showed a hardening
tendency in Berlin, the feeling there was
generally better. 1t was not thought the re-
cent bank failures were as serious as had
at first appeared.
South African news was better and it Is
noticeable that the output of gold as re-
ported from Johannesburg is advancing by
leaps and bounds.
In the local market a generally stronger
feeling developed Itself after the opening
and In spite of recessions was fairly well
maintained. The steel stocks had a sharp
rally. and, although they lost some of it
on wha. looked like sales of stock bought
by the underwriting syndicate to pros ect
the price lower down, there was a substan-
tial net gain on the day.
Changers were especially firm and It is
worthy of note that Union Pacific was
stohe. oitAoeeh ne uINlutnu was I'M
changed. Buying in this stock has been of
an excellent character, and its effect IL felt
In Southern Pacific, although the days OPP
erations indicated that the latter was be-
ing used to some extent to strengthen the
rest of the market. Trading continues ex-
ceedingly professional. and. until the publi-
cation Of the Government report on Satur-
DAY afternoon. one can hardly hope for
any wider market.
The steel news has been mixed, and, while
II Is evident that the A~malgamated Asso-
citation cannot prevent important mills
working. 1t remains to be seen whether
sympathy will be forthcoming from oth er
labor organizations. 1t is difficult to see
upon what rumors of the settlement Of the
steel strike are based. but If there were
anything in them and the Government crop
report were only moderately good, a sharp
advance in the general list would. In all
probability. be the immediate result.
The reaction in demand sterling postpones
for the moment the export of gold. but
some will very probably go next week. The
largest interests of the street, however,
want cheap money apd are in position to see
that they get IL. On this score, at any rate.
the street has no anxiety.
