ardor of the women. despite the fact
that the majority of the men took to

hot coffee to probably 600 people in a

Many prominent society women of the

STRONGER i
But Yesterdays Gains Were Only
Partly Heid-Money Market
Seems Tightening.

New York, Sept 1.-THE stock
market narrowed to the professional
vut today. The hardening of the mon
ey market naturally checks free spec
ulation. While banking operations
does not anticipate stringency, the
position of the New York banking
reserve shows that a restriction of
credits is imperative to conform to
the heavy drains on tn banks cash.
The $4,244,000 Withdrawn from the
banks by the sub-treasury operations
since last week by bank statement,
compars with the actual surplus re
serve of that time less than 5000 eco.
The interior has also continued draw
ing on New York The rise in New
York exchange at Chicago to par to-
day compared to 80 cents per $1,000
discount last week has resulted from
the firmer money rates here.
A shifting of loans employed in
stock speculation 10 other lenders
than banks seems indicated. The us
ual recourse is to the foreign money
markets, but estimates of American
banking Indebtedness abroad have al
ready been as high as $500, 100000
The low level of merchandise exports
for many monts has combined with
the very large imports to leave the
international exchange market with,
out usual material for covering for.
eign remittances. The newly develop.
cd Russian demand for gold in the
London market also projects new
element into the problem, the unus-
ually heavy grain exports from Russia
being advanced for explanation.
In the home financial markets the
investment appetite for securities has
been the occasion for complaint by
bankers and syndicates and various
projected new issues have been delay
ed. Bank loans throughout the coun
try are known to be heavily extended
With the season at hand when nor
NAL requirement of the interior makes
requistion upon New. York for tens
of millions of dollars, the outlook does
not invite undue extension of liabili-
ties for holding securities on margin,
The making today of three per cent
call loan rate by one of the largest
banks was generally followed. This
is as high a rate as has been touched
since early in 1908. Today the stock
market was strong, the money market
situation being reflected in the dull
ness of the speculation rather than in
the pressure to sell. The gains, how
ever, were only partly held.

College Professor Kills His
Wife.

William Reid Puryear, 30, an
assistant in the electrical engineer.
ing department under Professor
F g. Caldwell, at o. 5 u, of Co.
lumbus, who shot and killed f. l..
West, his brother in law, twice
wounded his wife, Ada Glare Pur-
year, then committed suicide,
after setting fire to his house at %
Woodruff avenue, in the attic of
which lie had barricaded himself,
shortly after / o'clock Wednesday
afternoon, undoubtedly was men
tally deranged, in the opinion of
those acquainted with the man and
the circumstances surrounding the
awful tragedy.
In the letter which he wrote in
the Library, after he had shot Mr..
West and his wife, and was wait.
ing the arrival of the police with
II determination to kill himself be-
fore being taken, Puryear made a
statement to the effect that he
never thought himself entirely
over the effects of fever which
caused long sick spell several
years, "And this just makes it
worse," he wrote, after speaking
of his wife's alleged misconduct.
These words, written by him
under the abnormal strain of d
determination to take his own life,
probably are key to the cause of
the tragedy.
Although his mind must have
been unbalanced, his actions de.
noted the preseIce of cunning
often displayed by madmen.
Some of those acquitted with
Puryear say he had the usual fiery
temperament of the Frenchman or
the Southern, and others said they
had never noticed that he was ex.
citeable or impulsive. He was
we'll liked by the students with
whom he was associated at the
university, and when he was marri-
ed after graduation last year the
rooms in the electrical engineering
department, where he worked,
were decorated by his associates
and considerable fun was had at
his expense.
Puryear's marriage, about a
year ago. to Miss Ada Glare West,
was the result of short, vigorous
counting. The young couple took
up their residence with the BRIDES
mother, Mrs. Alonzo h. West, who
owns the house at % Woodruff
avenue. Friends of the bride were
surprised by her marriage, as she
generally was thought engaged to
another student at the university
Neighbors say that Puryear and
his wife frequently quarreled and
the man was often heard to abuse
the woman. Acquaintances of
Mrs. Puryear declare the accus-
ations of her husband were absurd
and absolutely false.

Walls Falls.

The east wall of the Acker builC-
ing to the rear, fell into the cellar
of the new building to be erected
by the Rempels on the old Juniper
building site, Main street. The
room in the Acker building is oc-
cupied by the Rochester-Lytle Co.,
Dry Goods Store, and a large
stock of carpets and boxed dry
goods on the shelves went with the
wall out into the cellar excavation
of the new building. A force of
men were put to work to brace up
the balance of the wall, and to
clear up the debris. The roof and
floor was lacked up, and the open
ing boarded up until the walls can
be built. The wet weather is max
ing it very hard on excavations.
