WALL STREET REVIEW
A FURTHER HEAVY REALIZING OF
 SPECULATIVE TRADING.
Absorptive Power of Market Proved So im- pressive That Operations for Ad- vance Were Renewed Wth
 Confidence.

New York. June 2s.-There was some further heavy. realizing of specu,atiVe uaas ing in today's stock market, but It was effected without making inroad of prices; The absorptive power of the market proved sS ar enss dne tS eonfidencee rhe market at any. one time during the day presented an irregular appearance ppo,aIs Xna s,a Stable at others by the coincident- profit taking or from mere neglect on the part of shows IL comprehensive advance in the level of the market The lifting process was shifted from one quarter to another until no important group of stocks was left un'
 Preferences were shown for the standard dividend paying railroad stocks. but those were most favorable which have been sub ject to rumors of intended increases in the ous reversion n th. Pennsylvania group; Reading was included in the operation. and was accepted as mere preliminary to a further increase to come. Such was the which that stock. after having advanced to within shade of par recently, crossed that figure aggressiveiy to new record
 A number of low priced dividend payers proved attractive for the speculative possi- confined to the small dividend payers, as Graneers and Pacifics. The rate of return on the investment at current prices for asns ratss hss fsilen to % such iow per- centage that hopes of a rise in the rate of return is calculated to invite the outlay for reinvestment of the half yearly profits to be distributed on July l. The demand from this source Is relied upon in the cur rent speculative campaign for a basis.
 Buying for foreign account was a fac tor in the advance and the fact that for- eign commission houses were returning bor- rowed stocks on a large scale prompted the inference that this buying was to cover short contracts to large extent. The money market continued remarkably tran quil considering the near approach Of the July 1st requirements. Sterling exchenge yielded still further in Paris, So that there was no inducement to further engagements of gold for export. The conviction Is pro- fessed still by bankers that the gold move ment is destined to reach considerable pro portions.
 The supposition that the Russian indem- nity loan Is to be provided for was supple mented today by, the suggestions that a new Japanese loan is In contemplation. Japanr csc bonds were weak in consequence and regularity of the bond market.
 The bond market, In fact showed very little effect from the usual preliminary in vestment demand incident to this season of the year. Crop news was confident and market. Weakness in corn was due to speculative causes to a large extent.

Advertiser Bureau, l.

Selma, June 2S.
 Randall Miller, one of the best tnown negroes in the city, was shot and probably fatally injured late last nieht The shooting took place in an oiiev inst back of the residence of Sem ator Pettus and the weapon used was . Winchester rife. The ball entered in tbe rear of Miller's left side and passed out on his right side, inAicting dan-. gerous and perhaps fatal wound. The Shot was fired by Elijah Jackson, negro, who was afterwards piaceo un- der arrest .-.1.. grew out of a too close intimacy pe- tween Miller and Jacksons wiIe, anu last night when Jackson met miiler he shot him. Jackson with two other negroes were going through the aiiey that runs from Church Street 10 MaoIy Street last night and just peiore ne reached his home he met Miller anu his wife in the alley. Miller when he saw the woman's husband left ner and uuickened his pace up the aliey in the direction of his own home.
 When he had gone a short distance Jackson called to him to stop. put NH Ter kept on his way and paid no at tention to him. Seeing that Miller uiu not intend to stop, Jackson, who had Winchester rife with him threw It 10 his shoulder and fired. The ball went true to its mark and entered the ne gro's left side and passed through him. At first 1t was thought that the wound was only a slight one, but 1t IS now considered a dangerous one and may prove fatal.
 Miller is a well known negro boot black, who shines shoes around the different cotton exchanges, and has quite a number of friends among the merchants on Water Street. He has very good reputation and has never be- fore been in a very serious trouble.

In May Of last year Hughes suggested

after they hsd discussed several local..

allow her to have her own way about
everything, and that her slightest wish

arrangement or sacrifice that might
appear to be necessary, and made every
provision suggested for her comfort and
pleasure. Whether through suggestion
or otherwise, he thought he discerned
