Man Killed by Marshal.

Chipley, Fla, July 25.-United
States Deputy Marshal I. l.. whidden
shot and instantly killed Sid Barfeld
here this morning, on a street of this
city. The motive for the shooting
Is believed to have originated by Bar
held's conduct In the home Of the
deputy marshal. However, Whidden
refuses TO comment on the shooting.
Shortly after the shooting. Whid-
den was arrested and is held for the
murder of Barfield without bond. A
coroner's jury has been summoned,
but have reached no conclusions.
Excitement is very high here at
the present. as both men are well
known and have many friends.

WIRE WORM PEST SPREADING.
Secretary Rice Believes Insect Doing
Crops Much Damage.

Columbia, July 25.-Secretary Jas.
Henry Rice. Jr., of the Audubon So
ciety, who passed through Columbia
Saturday night, stated that the wire
worm pest is spreading, and that not
only the low coastal counties are af-
fected, but the insect has spread as
far as Barnwell county, and probably
into Lexington and other neighbor-
ing counties higher up. That the pest
Is In Lexington has not been fully de-
termined yet. but Secretary Rice stat
ed that he Is almost certain that what
has been damaging the crops in that
section Is the wire worm.
1t will be recalled that last year
the damage caused by the wire worm
was pointed out by Mr.. Rice. and at
tention was called to the ravages that
this insect is making on the crops Of
the State.
The wire worm Is not a respector
of any particular crop. He attacks
all. Mr.. Rice says that Is a great
problem that the farmers OF the State
have to face, because, instead Of be-
ing put down, the pest is spreading
over other counties.
Secretary Rice is making the trip
with the Clemson Institute. A num-
ber Of men, including DR.. E. Barnett,
live stock expert at Clemson; Prof.
&. G. Newman, horticulturist; l.. A.

MAY RAISE MAINE WRECK.
John F.. O'ROurke, Who Bridged the
Hudson and Constructed Tunnel
Under North River, Lays Plan Be-
fore Acting Secretary of War
Would Lift Hull Out Of Water and
Allow Complete Inspection.

Washington, July 25.-John +
O'Rourke, the engineer who bridge(
the Hudson at Poughkeepsie ant
drove the Pennsylvania Railroad!
tunnel under the North River, today
laid before acting Secretary of Wa,
Oliver his plan for raising the Maine
from the mud of the Havana harbor
Briefly this newest plan is base6
upon a system Of pneumatic caissons
such as have made possible the build
ing Of extremely deep foundations
under water and which contributed
largely to the success of the Building
of tunnels under the Hudson. Nc
divers are used and the pontoon sys-
tenn is put completely aside. The
method proposed is to swing the
Maine in a cradle of powerful cables
and lift her completely out OF the wa
ter, where a complete inspection OF
her hull will be possible.
While the ship is suspended above
water, Mr.. O'Rourke declares she can
be repaired as readily as if she were
in dry dock and after being relaunch
ed from the cable cradle can leave
Havana harbor under her own steam
This is said to. be the first plan yet
proposed which would present the
ship to a naval board in precisely the
same condition as she sunk on the
night of February is, 1898.
First, a wharf of piles would be
built on either side of the submerg-
ed wreck. Then, between the wharves
and the hull. twelve pneumatic cais-
sons would be sunk, six on each side.
Practical tunnel building operations
would be employed thereafter and a
hundred little tunnels would be driv-
en- through the mud, under the
Names keel. between the opposite
caissons. Through each tunnel a
powerful steel cable would be run
and each end would be run up the
outside of the caisson to the wharf
above, so there would be steel
cable under the hull every four feet,
and the aggregate Of all would be
calculated to be capable of raising
four times the weight of the wreck,
which is about 1000 tons.
Each cable end would then be at
tached to a system of steel screw rods
and the screw-back principle would
be employed. That the war depart
ment would be asked for a thousand
men to operate the hand screws and
by every man turning a lever at a
given signal it is planned to pull the
hulk up in the cradle of cables in
practically the same way as the pyra-
mids Of Egypt are supposed to have
been built by man-power. Being
swung above the water line. the gap
between the wharves would be
bridged and the engineers would
work under and around the hull.
When repaired she could be let down
into the water by a reversal of the
process by which she was raised.
Mr.. O'Rourke expressed the opin-
ion to Mr.. Oliver that the job could
be done in three months. Mr.. Oliver
and Gen. Bixby examined the plan in
minute detail. Mr.. O'Rourke was as
sured as one condition that, should
an army board pass favorably on the
project, his patents in the apparatus
would be protected.
Attorney General Wickersham ar
for the presentation of the
plans.

A further handicap to repair work
has appeared since Sunday night,

This must be shoveled off before the
true condition of the roadbed can be
ascertained. Meanwhile. men and ma

MARKET MOVEMENT
Of THE DAY

New York, Jan. i.-The strengency
In the call money rate relaxed today
and prices of stocks rallied, thus re-
versing the process of yesterday Cor
responding changes occurred in the
stock market sentiment regarding the
expected presidential messages, the
easing of the money market was due
In part directly to the liquidation in
the stock market which was forced
or influenced by the calling of loans.
The banks thus increased their re-
sources and the stock market lessened
its demands for money. The precip-
itate fall in price yesterday also car
ried with 1t growth in the short in
terest in the market. There was
enough show of support to take away
the appearance of the speculation by
its recent powerful supporters, an ap-
pearance which was of great influence
in discouraging the speculative senti-
ment yesterday. The heavy liquidation
was pushed to further lengths early
today and the level of prices at one
time was one to three points lower
than yesterdays figures. The call loan
market opened at 8 per cent and the
urgency of the demand contributed to
the selling pressure In stocks. The
character of buying and bidding up of
Southern Pacific served assurance also
that influential support was being ex-
tended. The strength of this stock
ultimately spread its effect by SYM
pathy through the rest of the market
Reports of the conference between the
president and the executive heads of
several great railroad systems con-
firmed the uneasiness felt in stock
market circles.
Later came the report from Wash
ington that the presidents message on
the Interstate commerce law amend
ments, once postponed from wednes-
day to Friday. had been again set
forward to next Monday. From this
1t was concluded the railroad presi-
dents arguments had been taken in
to renewed consideration with a pros
pect of working changes in the ex-
ecutive recommendations to congress
A factor in quieting anxiety about
anti-corporation measures was the
news of the prodigious merger of
trust companies effected under the
auspices of J. P. Morgan & Co. The

REPORTS ARE CURRENT THAT
DETERMINED FIGHT IS TO BE

Washington. Jan. A story was
in circulation among the republican
'.insurgent' members of the house
that the administration had definitely
decided to withhold from them their
quota of patronage and that from this
time forward the active work of dis
ciplining the republicans regarded by
the organization as recalcitrant would
be prosecuted with vigor.
1t was reported that Minnesota
congressman who has acquired the dis
pleasure of the regular organization
through his ..insurgent" acts had been
told at the postoffice department. for
instance. that his recommendations
in regard to the appointment of post
masters would receive no considera
ton. He was given definitely to I'M
derstand. so it was stated. that the
hand of the administration would be
against him and he could expect no
consideration of any sort
The rumors went still further and
said that active efforts were to be
made in the home districts of the re-
publican insurgents to prevent their
denomination. and that if this effort
failed they would be antagonized at
the polls.
1t Is asserted several thcusanG dol
lars already have been spent in the
district of a Wisconsin member to
promote the candidacy of rival re-
publican aspirant to his seat.
A Nebraska member. whose majority
over his democratic opponent at the
last election was slender. declared he
knew active efforts were being made
against him in his district by the re-
publican national congressional COM
mittee. and he added that he had no
doubt but that the organization would
oppose him at the polls If it failed to
prevent his denomination. He quoted
republican leader of the house as
saying publicly thai he preferred
