 MAN IS KILLED
IT IS CLAIMED THAT OFFICER AT TEMPTED TO HALT LABORERS AT MOUTH OF MINE AND FIRED AT THEM.

Denver. November 3.-Joseph Walker, a United States secret service man, was shot and instantly killed today by an employe of the Herprus mine, located several miles west of Durango, Colo. The shooting occurred at the mouth of the air shaft of the mine and Is said to have been done in self-defense. The mine is owned by the Porter Fuel company.
 c. c. Dorsey, attorney for the company was notified of the killing tonight. Ac- cording to his report of the affair gov ernment agents have been in the Durango country for several days gathering evil dence to be used in prosecuting persons indicted for fraudulent entries on lands. This being Sunday, no work was in prog ress in the mile and Thomas Mason, superintendent of the mine, and Joseph Vanderwive, an employe. were stroling on the company's property. On approach ing the air shaft, a man at the mouth of the shaft ordered them to halt. The miners though he was joking and did not obey, whereupon, according to Dor sey's story. the man fired, the bullet passing close to the head of Vanderwive.
 The latter whipped out revolver and returned the fire, killing the man in- stantly. Investigation developed that he was Joseph Walker.
 
 rope ladder had been let down insb the mine. Some time afterward. three men all government agents, appeared at the mine entrance. being unable to make exit any other way.
 The three men who were down in the mine were John Chapson, a government geologist; T. J. Callahan, special agent, and Thomas Harper of Pagora Springs, Colo. an expert on coal veins. Tonight Lucien Wheeler, chief of the Denver branch of the department of justice of the federal government. received a report but is withholding the contents from the public. He intimated, however, that he would not be willing to accept the claim that Walker was wholly to blame for the shooting. He also said that Walker had not been out of Durango county for ten months and was well known to everybody, particularly the people around the mines. Both Mason and Vanderwive were placed under arrest

NEW YORK STILL
 DOMINATES MARKET
IT IS FEARED IN BERLIN THAT FINANCIAL SITUATION MAY AGAIN BECOME SERIOUS-MOvE. MENT OF GOLD.

Berlin. November 3-The local money market is still dominated by New York, and while the view prevails that the American crisis has passed. it is thought here that the situation may become Sc rious again.
 The feeling is quite general that conf dence will return, but slowly, especially on the part of the general public. The Germans, however. continue to send buy ing orders to Wall street. and are taking the speculative chances involved. It is assumed that much German money will be available for American investment as soon as it is seen that conditions are be- coming normal
 The demand for cable transfers to New York has remained very heavy, although the rate eased off slightly. The danger of exporting gold continues to be in the foreground of interest in financial cir cles German balances in New York are admitted to be exhausted, and conse- quently the heavy commercial movement and the purchases in Wan street must be met through cable transfers. It IS now admitted in banking circles that a In.s- take was made last sunire: when the banks refused to discount American bills. Otherwise, they would nave had balances in New York with which to make the pay ment of grain and cotton securities.
 Az matters stand, these ,vfnents have been bulked within the last few weeks. and the great pressure has been thrown on the exchange market Gold .as been taken from the Reichs bank this past week for export to England and Holland. The belief is that this movement of gold will continue as the rate of exchange in London continues to advance. In spite of the advance made in the Reichs bank s rate. prognostications for the outlook in the nearby future are rather gloomy.

 General Booth preached at the three services-morning, afternoon and even ing-and despite his nearly four-score years, appeared strong, his voice usually carrying throughout the auditorium.
