DEADLY REVENGE.
ssuthern Justice of the Peace Kills
. Minister Who Had Attacked
Him from the Pulpit.

Brookside, Ala, Dec. 9.-Rev. J. w.
Bradford, Methodist minister of this
place, was shot by R. d. Coffman, JUS
tice of the peace, Sunday afternoon at
five o'clock and died two hours later.
Coffman was standing in Bradford's
doorway and fred two shots, both taxi
ing effect in the head. There were
no witnesses to the tragedy. Rev. Mr..
Bradford had been returned here as
the Methodist minister for another
year. While at Sunday school Sunday
morning Rev. Mr.. Bradford called at
tention to this fact and remarked that
he hoped all the relations between
himself and his congregation would be
pleasant, adding, it is alleged, that
their relations would be pleasant il
they could stop such men as Coffman
from lying about him and the church.
Coffman was once a member of Mr..
Bradford's church, but had been ex-
PEELED on some charge, and for this
reason there had been some bitter
feeling between him and Bradford.
Coffman Immediately after the shoot
ing surrendered to Deputy Sheriff
Armstrong. A warrant has been sworn
out before Justice j. T. Sellers charg-
ing Coffman with murder.

NOT GUILTY.
Judge Dunno Decides Contempt Case
in Favor of the Chicago
American.

Chicago, Dec. 9.--Holding that the
announcement by Judge Hanecy Oc-
tober 2s that in his opinion the quo
warranto proceedings against the
Peoples Gas Light e. Coke company
could not legally be instituted
amounted to final order disposing
of that case, Judge Dunno Saturday
held that in subsequently publishing
an article and pictures criticising
that decision Hearst's Chicago Amer
lean and the members of its staff
were not guilty of any contempt
against Judge Hanecy, and he there
fore discharged from the custody Of
the law A. M. Lawrence, managing
editor, and II. S. Garfield, writer
on that publication, who had been
held in contempt of court and SEN
fenced to the county jail by Judge

TO GIVE TEN MILLIONS.
Andrew Carnegie wilI Ala Education
In America with = Prince
IL SUN.

| Chicago, Dec. 9.-Walter Wellman'a
Washington special to the Record
says: Andrew Carnegie Is to give
$10.000.000 to the cause OF university
extension in the United States. An
nouncement of this great gift to edu-
cation will be made at the white house
on Tuesday. Mr.. Carnegie was here a
few days ago and took luncheon with
President Roosevelt, when details OF
the plan were fully discussed.
Mr.. Carnegie has for some time had
the project under consideration, and
has consulted in regard to 1t with
some of the most eminent educators
in the United States. 1t has been
thought best to create national
board to handle this munificent bene-
faction and to institute the work on a
scale commensurate with it's impor-
lance. President Roosevelt will prob
ably name such board for Mr.. Car
negie, or at least set in motion the ma
chinery which shall lead to national
organization.
Nicholas Murray Butler, who has
succeeded Seth Low at the head OF Co
lumbia college, has been here for two
days, guest of President Roosevelt
at the white house, and he has aided In
perfecting the plans. Mr.. Butler left
for New York at four o'clock Sunday
afternoon, and before going refused to
give any particulars beyond the infor-
nation that an announcement would
be made on Tuesday at the white
house. Mr.. Butler has long been one
Of the foremost champions of univer-
sity extension, and 1t is understood Mr..
Carnegie has had frequent consulta-
lions With him concerning the enter
prise.
According to the plans prepared
by Mr.. Carnegie and his advisers,
the national organization is to have it's
headquarters in Washington, but its
operations are to extend throughout
the United States, the work to be car
ried on in cooperation with universe
ties everywhere. What will amount to
great national university, with its
seat at Washington, may in time grow
out Of the enterprise.

American rsdsratieh Of Labor Cor
vsntion Completes Its Organisa-
tion-Resolutions Introduced.

Scranton, Pa, Dec. 9.--fhe Ameri-
can Federation of Labor completed
ito organization Saturday. and the
real work of the convention will be
begun to-day. The official roll shows
the presence Of 312 delegates, the
largest attendance in the history Of
the organization. Among important
resolutions introduced Saturday were
these:
Demanding municipal state and gov
ernmental ownership of railroads, tele-
graph lines. etc.; asking workmen to aid
In the, requirement OF the power OF gov
eminent for the purpose of Matchmaking
Industrial combinations: demanding the
organisation Of an Independent political
party; protesting against ship subsidy
legislation; expressing sympathy for the
Beers: for the establishment Of socialism;
providing for the organization OF school
teachers; requesting workmen to hold
aloof from the militia. and indorsing the
Swiss military system.
Notwithstanding that yesterday
was Sunday, many Of the delegates
to the convention of the American
Federation of Labor, now in session
In this city. did not cease their ac-
tivity, the day being given up to the
transaction Of committee business.
A majority of the committees were
organized, and not few of them
took up questions that will engage
the attention of the convention dur
Ing the coming week. The executive
council. which is composed of the
president, the six vice presidents, the
secretary and treasurer of the feder-
alton, went into session early and
did not adjourn until long after noon.
The session was secret and nothing
was given out for publication.
The American Federation of Labor
convention will remain in session for
the next six days, and will have a
very busy week. Two hundred reso-
lutions, touching upon nearly every
question in the labor world, have
been presented for action. The COM
-mittees will make reports on them
as rapidly as possible, but it is not
likely that more than half of these
will be reported from the several
committees.
What is looked upon by many Of
the delegates as the most vital ques-
ton that will come before the con-
vention is that of trade autonomy.
The brewery workmen and the mine
workers delegates probably will be
the storm center on this question.
Both of these trade unions want in
dustrial autonomy, that is, they advo-
cate that all trades in one individual
establishment should form one or
ganization for the better advance
ment Of the condition of all. They
also announce that they will oppose
trade autonomy to the bitter end.
The miners, in their argument, say
that If handful of engineers, or
firemen, employed in mine should
strike, it would cause the mine to be
closed, and thus throw out of work
hundreds Of men who may have no
grievances. If all trades in the mine
were united under one head, the mine
workers say much friction could be
avoided. Those who advocate trade
autonomy claim it would be fatal for
them to enter such combination,
and that no good result could come
from an amalgamation of that kind.

The Astor Book.

From the Kansas City World.
 The Astor book has reached these shores in spite of inhibition placed on it's circulation here by William Waldorf. MT. stor need not worry about the sale of the book in the United States or elsewhere.
 We do not feel kindly toward MT. As tor-the impersonal pronoun Is used in broad sense. He is about the worst spec imen of an American of prominence the country has produced His millions did not beget this dislike, for his brother Is in no danger of penury, and he Is rather a popular fellow. William Waldorf would be a disagreeable man if he had not cent, but with millions to spend in his life effort of making himself obnoxious he has probably attained to a greater de- gree of public reproduction than he might otherwise have commanded Putting aside the personality of the man, his book is a beggarly thing.
 It embraces a number of sloppy stories, three of them having to do with the tra- ditions of Cliveden, which he bought with the property The stories have no inher- ent merit as stories. they are badly writ ten. They neither amuse instruct, shock nor impress. Like the tea parties de- scribed by Miss Braddon, the most in tensely interesting thing in them is the particular name of the tea
 If Astor is to continue in his mission of bringing reproach on the country that produced him he will have to refrain from writing. That way oblivion lies He is not far enough removed from the skunk skin to go in for literature What he needs is cultivation, which will come with time, as one of his gardeners told him.
 He was walking about his newly ac- quired estate of Cliveden, and was moved to ask a man whom he saw rolling a beautiful lawn how such lovely grass was grown.
 Easy enough" said the man. we just seeds it and rolls it for a couple of hundred years" William Waldorf needs more rolling

FEVERiSH TONE IN

SOME HEAVY REALIZING

New York, March 3o.-There was a few erish tone in the stock market throughout today's two hour session, and violent manipulation was in evidence from time Co time to check a reactionary tendency. Heavy realizing was manifested In the opening deals, especially in Burlington, Northern Pacific and the United States Steel stocks These stocks manifested their recent prominence in the trading, 30 that their downward course had a cor respondingly large effect upon the gen. eral market. Burlington was bid up sud- denty to IF over last night, about midway of the session, touching a record price of 1761s. but 1t quickly fell back under the flood of realizing offerings and closed with only a fractional net gain. There was a violent rise at the same time in the Western and Tennessee Coal. Realizing has already affected these advances be- fore the appearance of the bank state menk The bears sold the market on the large inroads made upon the surplus re- serves of the banks, and caused declines running to a point in some cases. Sup nortins orders were met and the rally was made effective by a sudden and violent rise in Rock Island to 1se an advance of s% points over last night. Atchison was marked up 1st at the same time- A re- viyal of old rImors of combination be- tween the two systems accompanied the advance. Rock Island fell back sharply on realizing and the closing Of the mar
 tNWaa O taking being noticed in force at some points In the list.
 There were wide advances In a number oF hieh-erade and usually active stocks during the week. including Lackawana, Morris and Essex. Pullman and Colo rado Fuel preferred, running from 31a 10 10 points, the latter figure for Colorado Fuel preferred. The decline In the cash reserve of the banks was less than had been estimated, but the loan expansion of S611SS0O made additional reserve re- quirements, and so encroached on the surplus.
 Another eventful week has passed in the stock market, with a very animated and varied speculation in full swing. The daily average of transactions has run well over a million shares of stock, ana over G. GOO 900 in par value of bonds There has been a constant digestion or specula- ton profits on very large scale, and this has encouraged the bear party to go short of the market occasionally in the conf dence that the continuation of the rise had been reached, and that they would have good opportunity to cover their short contracts.
 The strength of the bond market has not been so conspicuous and so general this week, but points of strength have aentfnned to develop.
