Papers asking for a requisition for
George Hedges, alias George Moore. who
is wanted at Leavenworth on the charge
of assault with intent to kill, have been
filed in Governor Stanley's office Hedges
is in jail in Cripple Creek, Colo, accord
ing to word received by the Leaven-
worth authorities from ]. K. Burton,
marshal of Cripple Creek.
The complaint against Hedges alleges
that last June he shot John Doyle with
a shotgun. Doyle did not die, however,
so Hedges escapes the charge of murder

New York, Nov. 1s.-The bank state
ment was a favorable one but it ex-
specul alton. The changes not of
enough Importance to make stocks really
cheaper dearer for they do not alter
the monetary outlook in any way. A sur
plus reserve of 800, 600. 900 is little enough
when the aggregate deposits are almost
a billion The really favorable feature of
the statement was a reduction of nearly
shifting of some stock of the de-
tails of the Northern Pacific matter. The
gain in money is entirely in legal tenders
which have come into the city from
nearby points The only factor of i'm
pOrtance at present in connection with
the money market is the rumored accu-
mutation of government bonds by lead
ing house for the purpose of making a
single large tender to the treasury depart
ment next week. A rumor is current that
Secretary Gage win shortly raise the
limit at which he will redeem bonds, but
this does not seem plausible. The price
already offered is fully up to the fair av-
reason for the redemption is to give relief
from possible monetary stringency. II
Wall street is not willing to furnish bonds
at a fair price it follows that there is no
stringency in sight sufficient to call for
relief If call money ruled at 10 per cent
ferings of government bonds. 1t is to be
noticed that the price of sterling ex-
change is firmer than ever and bids fair
to reach a higher point.
