she sead that he answered thedescrip- she said that she answered the descrip- tion. Kober and other policemen went to the barn on Sherman avenue and awakened all the neighborhood before they were able to get Williams to come to the window. He denied all knowl- edge of the assault, but was taken to Miss Baldwin's home, and she positive ly identified him as the man.
 Policeman Kober knew some time ago that the police had suspected Williams of one of these assaults when he was employed by Hillhouse avenue resi- dent. and as soon as he heard of this attack he started for the barn, where he knew that he slept.
 There were marks on Miss Baldwin's left cheek where she was struck and also on her neck, where Williams evi- dently attempted to choke her. Her clothing was torn during the struggle. Miss Baldwin was unable to be out yes terday.
 Yesterday morning in the city court Williams was charged with breach of the peace. and was remanded for trial on December 20. At that time a more serious charge will be filed against him. Williams is thirtyeight years old, five feet eight inches tall, and Is not mar ried.
 He claims to have come from Vir- ginia and has been married. though the
 police do not know where his wife is. For some time past he has been enl- ployed as a coachman by Elbridge Howe, the Chapel street merchant. and during i this period his conduct has been per- fectly satisfactory to his employer. In-
 deed, he has so well performed his
 work, and his character has seemed to , be so good. that MT. Howe was. ex- tremely loath to believe Williams guilty of the assault and believes some mis- take has been made. Attorney Der nard Lynch has been retained to de- fend Williams.

 Miss Baldwin was just returning home from her employment and got of . Chapel street car at Winthrop ave- nue. She had gone about 200 feet when the man jumped at her from behind a tree and struck her square in the face from behind and threw her into the snow. He then grabbed her by the throat, thus effectively stifiing her out cries.
 So sudden was the attack, and So great the violence, that Miss Baldwin had no time to cry out.

YESTERDAYS STOCK MARKET
As Reviewed by the House of Prince &
 Whitely.

Whitely.
 New York, Dec. 16.-The increase in the Louisville & Nashville dividend had a salutary effect on the securities mar kets here and in London. London opened at fair gains on our yesterdays close and here the market opened with increased activity and general advances which latter were pretty well main- tained. The recent nervousness is giv- ing way to more normal reflections and conditions. Developments on the whole continue favorable and justify the ex- pectation of ulterior benefit to values. The market was quiet in tone and was less subject to the attacks of floor traders, the latter element being now a very strong factor in the daily swing of prices, Commission houses. capitalistic interests and the larger professionals were transformations absorbers of stocks. Money unchanged perhaps a trifie easier on call. Exchange remains strong and again is .quotably higher; actual short sterling 4.S7.20. In the ear ly afternoon hours the stock market was very quiet, with fluctuations small. Cotton opened lower on disappointing cables, but steadied during the day and is finding more public favor on present level of prices. Closing prices show a decline of ten points for the day. The stock market in the last hour continued with underlying strength and the last prices were nearly the best of the day. The tone at the close was strong.
 Total sales 916,000
 All indications point to a strengthen ing of the position of the local banks in the bank statement tomorrow So far as may be learned there will not be shown any material change in the cash item.
