BIRTHS AND DEATHS
INCREASE IN WHITE POPULATION
 SLIGHT.
Negroes Report Only Three Births While Sixteen of Them Died in Montgomery During the
 Past Week.

The record of births and deaths for the past week in Montgomery. as shown by data compiled by the City Sanitary Department, indicate that the natural increase in the city's white population was slight. While the rec ord shows that there were but eight white births, it Is likely there were more. as 1t frequently happens that physicians forget to report births. In comparison with the number of births. the death rate among the white population for the past week Is not regarded as abnormally large Ac- cording to the report, nine white per sons died during the week, but two of these were infants. Statistics among the negroes. how ever. are much different. Sixteen ne- groes died during the week while the report shows that only three negro babies were born. Negroes are fre- quently derelict in reporting births and 1t is believed that, if the Sanitary De- pertinent had received notice of every birth among the black population. the record would be much more fiattering. Of the eight white babies born. i've were girls and three were boys. All of the negro babies were girls. The Sanitary Departments record of births and deaths for the past week follows:

IM SHOCK MARKET
 SILL SELLING OUT
There Are However Here and There
 Signs of lmprovement

New York. Nov. 21.-Liquidation of the same painful character as of sev- eral days past was still in evidence on
 the stock market today. There was an acute depression of the stocks i'm mediately affected. occasioned by the selling. The weakness did not em- brace the list as a whole and the mar ket showed some resiliency in late dealings. The fact is clear that the forced liquidation was the selling out of collateral in the stock market which has been in progress from time to time. The acute weakness of yester- -day and today of Atchison convertible 5 per cent bonds called attention to the fact that some SI5.O00. 900 of the issue. unsubscribed by the stockhold- CTS, was taken recently bv a syndi- cate of bankers. The Southern group of railroads and the Erie. the New York Central. the Pennsylvania the B
 X O. and other stocks were under se- we're pressure from time to time. The selling of some of these stocks was partly influenced apparently by fears of coming dividend reductions. The declaration of the regular dividend in National Lead stocks helped the metal industries to some extent. especially American Smelling. A rise in the price of London copper also helped. There is q feeling of encouragement perceptible/ regarding the. condition of the iron and steel trade. The main tenance of the premium currency rise about yesterdays figure was an unsat- isfactory item of the days news

IA LIGHTNING LIKE
 AFFAIR OF TIE HtARI 1
The Rapidity With Which Things Have Been Happening to Frank Robinson and Frances Logan

Frank Robinson. of Jerome. and Frances Logan. of Bisbee, returned i from Jerome yesterday morning chap eroned by Deputy Sheriff Jeff Adams Mir. Robinson was transferred to the woman's cell of the county jail and the ! girl was detained in the office of the sheriff until her father might call for her. Even then he was not given full custody of her until he had agreed with Justice Johnstone that she should not be taken out of the jurisdiction of his court until after the examination of Robinson on a charge of abduction. Robinson was arraigned and his trial was set for Monday morning
 Both the boy and the girl denied that they had given cause for thus setting the wheels of the law in motion in this rapid manner but as interested parties their statements as to theE move ments since their disappearance last Saturday morning are discredited by t!isinterested observers
 What the outcome of the case re- mains to be seen. It was thought that the affair might be settled by a msrriage; the parents of the girl might
 
 solution but it is doubtful now if the girls father would give his consent. He interviewed the young man after he had been locked up and Robinson was inclined to be defiant He said that he did not want \to be married and that there was no moral reason why he should be. The girl is not hankering after matrimony and it is thought that the parents of the young man would not approve such step.
 Robinson began clamoring for his release on bond soon after he was brought in and later in the day a~tele- gram was received from his father. the postmaster at Jerome. asking why his sen had not been given his freedom on the bond on which he was released a. Jerome pending the arrival there of the Phoenix officer. It was held. though. that bond was irregular Ar engagements were begun for the filing of a new bond and it will probably be completed this morning
 Both Robinson and the girl say that they did not travel to Jerome together and. in fact, did not see each other after Friday night until they met in
 
 said he was surprised to meet the girl there and when he learned that she wanted to get job in the Jerome post office he brought family influence to bear on his father.
 At the' time of the arrest of the pair by the Yavapai officers the girl had not entered upon her federal duties though immediately after her arrest and her transfer to the custody of Robinson's mother she was given em- ployment in the postoffice.
 The girl. who is quite bright and handsome. had been inclined to way wardness and had been committed for q short time to the industrial school at Benson. She says that she had no in- tention of being bad but that she was simply desirous of leaving home as she could not get on well with her father
 Neither Robinson nor the girl could live foreseen last Thursday morning when their love affair began how events were going to tread on each others heels within the next seven days.

in which Mr.. Ritchie was commercial

"Quite an interesting business, ="
said the peer, playing with his eye
glass.
Very interesting" the minister as
sented.
How much sugar goes to the
pound, Mr.. Ritchie?" inquired the
peer, with slow. insolent smile.
"A pound of sugar and pound of
oakum weigh exactly the same, my
lord" replied Mr.. Ritchie
The peer turned away with an
angry flush. One Of his relatives had
