Lammot street. He boarded with Mrs.
Louisa Mcclure, and went TO bed about
midnight Saturday. An hour or 30 later
he left his room and accidentally fell

The Business Situation.

RIG. Dun Il Co. q Review says: child
weather effects retail distribution to a
very marked degree, orders for heavy
weight goods being cancelled in some
cases whfre manufacturers were behind
with deliveries. That the volume of
Legitimate business is not being cur
tailed, however, is evidenced by the gain
in bank exchanges at New York of p. 4
| per cent over last year and I. 8 per cent
over the same week in 1899. AT other
leading cities the increase is equally
striking, 20. i per cent over 1900 and
8. d over 1893.
"lrregularity prevailed 10 the markets
for staples. Spectators secured dis
tinct decline from the unusually high
position recently attained by porK prod
uots, while at the same time corn made
further advance. Poor huelxing re-
ports were held responsible for the rise
10 the cereal, and there was natural
falling off in exports. Shipments from
Atlantic ports for the week were only
49S, 495 bushels, against l,l9i, 009 last
week and 3, 1923, 6l3 year ago. Interior
receipts were also light, 2,217, 1876
bushels. against 1888, 020 last year.
Wheat came to market more freely, ar
rivals at western cities amounting to
1000, 800 bushels, against 6, 1872, 1913 in
the previous week and 3, 537, COZ year
ago. Atlantic exports were less salts
factory than last week, but including
all United States ports, the week 9
shipments were 5,0lS, l03 bushels,
against 1865, 1921 lnst year, and 3,50S, 998
in 1885, A further fall put cotton So a
bale lower than il was two weekp ago. "
Bradstreet's says: "A lhrge short
interest Is said to exist in corn, and
wet weather and good buying have
stimulated prices CT that product and
of oats. Print cloths, among the tex
tiles, have gone counter to the raw
material, mainly because of manipula-
tive buying. The effect OF these two
diverse movements has been to unsettle
the market slightly. The wooden goods
situation is in good shape, and the
manufactures have bought freely, sales
at boston alone aggregating 1900, 600
to 20, 600, 900 pounds.
"No particular change 10 iron and
steel is noted, though tie tendency of
pig prices IS stronger, prompt ship
ments in some cases bringing 10 cents
per ton premium. Talk OF advancing
steel rails 81 to 50 per ton for next

prompt deliveries bring 1927 to s2S. In

Unprecedented demand at Chicago. A

Beers LOST HEAVILY.
They Charged Repeatedly Right Up to the
British Lines.

They Charged Repeatedly Right Up to the
British Lines.
London, Eng, Nov. A dispatch
ffom Pretoria says:
Further details have been received
regarding the attack by the Beers
under Commander General Louis Botha
last week upon Col. Benson's column,
near BraKenlaagte, Eastern Transvaal.
ii appears that Gen. Botba, who had
been joined by another big commando,
aggreg8ting 1000 men, attacked Col.
Bensou's rear guard Octoper Both, on
the march, and captured two guns, but
was unable to retain them. Col. Ben
Sun fell, mortally wounded, early in
the fight.
MAJOR Woods Sampson took COM
mand, collected the convoy and took
up position for defence about 800
yards from entrenobments prepared by
the Beers. The captured guns we're so
situated that neither side could touch
them.
1.-The Beers made desperate effort
to oyerwhelm the whole British force,
charging repeatedly right up to the
British lines, and being driven back
each time with heavy loss. The de-
fence was stubbornly and successfully
maintained through the whole of the
following day and the succeeding night,
until Col. Barter, who had marched all
night from Bushrnan' 8 Kop, brought
relief, in the morning of November lat.
The Beers then retired. Their losses
are estima ted at between 300 and 400.
"Col. Benson did not long survive.
Not only did Gen. Botha direct the at.
task, as already called, but he per-
sonally shared in the lighting"

FOR A LABOR TEMPLE.

United Labor League Makes n Move Look
ing Toward Having a Home of Its own.
For some time the United Labor
League has been considering the ad
visibility of building labor temple
or purchasing building that can be
converted into one, and at Sunday q
meeting James A. Ward, Lewis Roehm,
Jr., and Frederick Martin we're ap-
pointed committee to look into the
matter, suggest ways and means and
report at meeting to be held on No
vember Goth. Some OF the members of
the league are In favor oil issuing stock,
while others believe the money can be
raised by subscription among the mem
bers OF labor organizations In the city.
The ground will be fully canvassed be-
fore any definite plan is adopted
The Smith Building, at No. 6l01a
Market street, which ia the present
home of the Labor League and most Of
the affiliated bodies, has been occupied
as auoh for some Tins, but has out
grown the needs Of the organizations,
hence the necessity for larger and better
equipped quarters. 1t Is proposed to
have building which can have a we'll
appointed library and reading room in
addition TO a number Of lodge rooms, a
place where the members of the several
unions can go ut any time and feel at
home. The Labor League represents
but $500 organized working people,
members of about 90 organizations.
At Sundays meeting DELEGATIONS
were received from the Carpenters
Union and also from the Bowers Glazers
Union. The proceeds OF the Labor Day
celebration amounted to 1925.

LYNGHlNG Bee IN KENTUCKY.

Hodgenville KY, Oct. 3l.-A mob
OF 80 or 70 people, about 3 O'Clock this
morning, took from the Jail s;ilas
Esters. negro, charged with forcing
Granville Ward, 15-years. old boy OF
near Upton, to commit a crime, and
strung him to the Court House steps.
So quietly and systematically did the
mob go about its work that most of the
citizens we're in ignorance of the exist
ence of the mob until tine negro was in
its clutches.
|. The keys of the jail we're surrendered
to the lynohing party on the demand of
the leaders. The cell in which the
negro was confined was entered, aud
the moose was adjusted about his neck.
He was dragged down the Jail stairs
and out into the street. He managed
to slip the moose from his neck, and
made a break for liberty. The mob
made after HIM. bowling and firing at
him with guns and pistols. and he fell
when about 100 yards from the jail,
riddled with bullets. The moose was
again placed about the negro's neck,
and he was dragged to the Court House
and swung to the topmost septH.
The mob was formed in the neighbor-
hood of the crime.

BRIGHT PROSPECTS,

The Harlan & Hollingsworth Go.
Monday closed contract with Tams,
LaMoine & Go. of New York City for
a large auxiliary steel yacht. The boat
will be one of the best OF its class ever
built here and one of the fastest and
bHst equipped ahoat. 1t has been
learned that the company is nego-
tiating for several other large boats and
1t is believed two or three important
contracts will be closed during the
week.
In addition to the work for which
the company is now negotiating, it Ia
altogether likely that more of the same
class will follow, as some heats are to
be built and it is quite probable that
Wilmington will get its share.
