LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE.
Money Stringency Is Still Having a
 Depressing Effect.

London, October 15.-Trading on the stock exchange this week did not develop any material improvement in expansion of business, the money stringency still having a depressing effect, while the forced closing of a large speculative &C., count and the weakness of smaller ones affected the market to a moderate ex- tent. Consols swayed by the money mar ket moved erratically and at the finish were practically unchanged. Home rails throughout large, experienced a good de- mand owing to the board of trade returns and traffic report and better trade re- ports, closing higher for the week.
 The preparations on the continent for the forthcoming Russian loan restricted business In foreigners, but prices were maintained. Japan, which showed tenn porary weakness on the statement of the war debt, closed steady and unchanged.
 Americans were inactive. The liquida- tion in Wall street induced selling and the caution here and Frank Vanderlips addresses at Washington. October Il, be- fore the American Bankers association, did not help matters. The difficulties of jobber who has been assisted, caused further depression, but the strenuous ef- forts of the bull clique in New York gradually lifted prices from the lowest and the final quotations were only about a dollar lower for the week.
 Union Pacific received much attention on the reported advantages which the shareholders are to receive in the forth coming new issue of Great Northern stock
 Owing to the large bull position re- gently created the carry-over rates for the settlement just concluded were rather stiff, but Canadian Paeifics and Hudson Bays were again largely dealt in during the last week.
 Money was still much wanted and indi- cations uoint to it's continued scarcety cations point to it's continued scarcity have ceased for the present. The Bank of England obtained a fair amount of the recent arrivals, but with French exchange again lower, and Egypt In want of gold the prospects of the Bank of England needing large quantity of the arrivals in the future is considered small An other million shipped from India, it is said, Is to be taken off at Egypt and a corresponding amount will be taken from the bank reserve to replace this. This gives rise to further talk of an early advance in the bank rate.

NO VERDICT MADE IN CORNELL CASE Finding of Jury Matter of
 Much Speculation MISSION SOCIETY MEETS The Beavers and Sharks of Bessemer Will Play Game of Indoor Base- ball Tomorrow NIght-claim
 the Championship.
 
MISSION SOCIETY MEETS

Bessemer. October 15-(Special) At a of the state against T. J. Cornwell had not reached verdict, and 1t is not ex- pected that they will before tomorrow.
 The case went to the jury yesterday af- ternoon at o'clock. Considerable specu- lation is being induged in as to what the final verdict will be and the majority of opinion seems to be that a mistrial will be the result.
 The matter before the jury Is a plea of former jeopardy filed by the attorneys for the defendant few days before the case was called in the Bessemer city court The main case to be tried Is one charging T. J. Cornwell with the embezzlement of $25,O00, which will be taken up at once in case the plea is denied by the jury.
 Last December Cornwell was tried on an indictment charging the embezzlement of about $S000 and was acquitted. l. IS claimed by the defense that this indict- ment included the same amount and the same criminal charge as the former in- dictment and the claim Is made that since ne was aCQultIeu on lne IOrI1er tfldi ne cannot be legally jeopardized at this time on the same charge and for the same offense which Is said to be part of one continuous act and a part for which he was formerly tried.
 The taking of testimony and the arguing of the plea consumed the entire week and the legal battle between the attorneys on either side has been one of the fiercest in the history of the Bessemer city court.
 Notes and Personals.
 The Ladies' Home Mission society of the First Methodist church will meet with Mrs. James H. Hard at her home An Second avenue tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. Business of importance is to be transacted and 1t Is desired that all members be present.

TUBERCULOSIS CONFERENCE.
Meeting Was a Great Success-Co-
 operation Desired.

To the Editor of the Age-Herald
 It seems to me the tuberculosis confer ence held in Calera Wednesday night, De- tober Il, under the auspices of the Shelby County Medical society was so pregnant with promises of the future, and so edu- cative at the present time that it well deserves extended notice. The Shelby County Medical society is not only one of the first county organizations in Ala bama to take up this subject for the bet ter education of the public, but 1t pro- poses to go further and hold these con- ferences as frequently as may be neces- sary in the incorporated towns in the county, until the public Is thoroughly aroused as to the ravages of the disease.
 It is proposed to obtain the thorough cooperation of teachers. ministers of the gospel and leading citizens all over the county. We want the prevention of tuber- culosis taught in the schools; we want it preached from the pulpit; we want 1t legislated against by the lawmakers; we want it heralded by the press.
 About 150 people attended the confer ence. The musical programme was good. There were singers from Talladega Shell V, II, Doc Sifters." by Miss Hayes of Monte vallo was most enjoyable.
 The papers of Hon. Eli P. Smith of the Birmingham News and Dr. c. c. Jones of East Lake were highly instructive and scholarly additions to the literature of the prevention of tuberculosis There were also short talks by Drs. Peterson and Wilkinson of Montevallo, Dr. Acker of Columbana, Dr. Williams of Shelby, Pro- af CnIun biana a m Dr f c. LeGrande of Birmingham. Dr. D. F. Tally of Birmingham was an attendant. One of the interesting features of the pro- gramme was the exhibition of the germs of the disease under the microscope. Those from distance were entertained for sup per at the residence of Mrs. Annie Rose. The next conference will b held In Co., lumbiana D. l.. WILKINSON M. D.
