OFFERS CORPSE as EVIDENCE.
District Attorney StartIes Court, but
Is Quickly OverrnIed.

vicksburg. Miss. Dec. 15.-The court
was startled when dead body was car
ried in at the order of District Attorney
Thames and offered as evidence by the
State against Miss Rosie Miner, charged
with the murder Of George Smith. last
October. This is the first known time
that such an exhibit was attempted
1t developed that the body OF Smith
had never been buried and had been held
at local undertaker's awaiting the trial.
The sudden move OF Mr.. Thames created
a profound sensation. The body had been
embalmed and the State hoped to get It
introduced as evidence.
Judge MouBger. who was presiding over
the trial, was also taken unaware, but
he promptly ruled that a corpse was not
admissible as evidence. District Attorney
Thames then directed the four stout men
who had borne IL into the room TO carry
it back 10 the undertaking establishment
The defendant. Rosie Miner. was yisibly
affected BY the scene.

Profit Taking Brings Prices
to Wednesdays Level.
BOND MARKET INTERESTING
Increased Investment Buying Seen
in These securities-Bank of Eng
land Does Not Reduce It's Discount
Rate-EnOrts Are Being Made TO
Bring Gold from Europe.

New York. Dec 1S-To-day in the
morning hours of stock exchange bust
ness there was a continuation Of the
upward movement that generally eharae-
terized yesterdays stock market, and
the advance was carried on in a some
what more lively manner. No great
gains were shown in any direction. and
it was still apparent that the buying
was Of professional character; neverthe-
less. the fact seemed fairly plain that
the line OF least resistance in the mar
ket was in the direction OF higher prices.
and this, Of course, encouraged specula-
two persons. But the narrowness OF the
present technical situation in Wall street
soon asserted itself
BY neon the market had come to
dead halt and from then on until the
close. nroft-taking sales by spectators
again brought prices down 70 yesterdays
closing level. leaving net fluctuations for
the entire day barely more than nom
nal. save in very few stocks.
Inter.-Met- Strong.
Ono Of these exceptions was the Inter
neutrality-suspicious. preferred shares.
which derived especial strength. very
logically. from the withdrawal OF the
bid of a rival company for the new sub
way construction. The strong probable
ity Is now that the new subways will be
built by the marlborough interests, and
although the company must largely in
crease its bond Indebtedness for the rur-
pose OF carrying on the new work. yet,
nevertheless. its general financial pros
pect has unquestionably been decidedly
bettered by what has happened.
Really. to-day. the bond market was
far more interesting than the stock mar
ket, and there was no doubt that deal
ings here represented Increased invest
ment buying.
Higher Values Probable
The transactions in the bond list were
widely diversified and a particular ad-
vance again occurred in the Central
Railroad of Georgia incomes, because of
yesterdays decision in their favor"
Among the banks and bond houses the
opinion is becoming more and more en-
phatic that the outlook is for a pro
longed period or money ease and for
higher values for all securities Of invest
ment grade.
The Bank or England. to-day. did not
reduce its discount rate, and there was
no substantial expectation that such
reduction would take place. The banks
proportion OF reserve TO liabilities de-
creased slightly from last weeks fig
ures. but it stands al an unusually high
figure for the time of year.
While there was no change worth not
ing in sterling exchange rates In this
market an effort was stu under way
in certain quarters to bring gold from
Europe and 10 acquire, il possible, some
portion Of the South African bullion that
will be put on sale in London on Mon
day.

DIR. DRISCOLL DEAD Promising Young Physician SuCCumbs Following an Ex-
 tended IIIn,sS

Dr. Daniel w. Dr.scoll, died, early
 yesterday morning at St. Vincent's hospital where he had been a patient for some weeks. He was 34 years old. His remains were taken to JeWett City yesterday afternoon to the home of his parents, where fun eral services will be held tomorrow morning with interment in St. Mary,s cemetery, Norwich. Dr. Driscoll graduated from Columbia University ten years ago entering as an intcrne at Columbus Hospital where he re- malned two years. For the past eight years he has been engaged in practice in this city with an office at 467 State street. While here Dr. Drlscoll built up an extensive prac- tice. which he was obliged to relin- quish because of falling health. Con- stant calls from his patients brought him back to his life work. During the summer he was forced to give up his practice and entered St. VincentS s hospital for treatment.
 The news of pr. Driscoll's death was a shock to his many admirers here. S nee taking up his residence in this city he had made many friends as was attested hy the lucrative na- ture of his practice. He was an ear nest, sympathetic and enlightened practitioner and had he lived he would unquestionably have attained high eminence in his profess on. Those who were brought into contact with him were charmed with his gentle personality which had been enriched by much natural talent. A profound student of medicine his frail consti- tuition gave way under the stress Of study for he devoted hours of patient toll to ewNauetir-~ ~~na~ch in the field of his chosen endeavoe.
 Realizing some weenS ago that his fight for life was seemingly being combatted by insurmountable odds he prepared for the inevitable with that quiet resignation characteristic of the man and in truth, can be said, that dissolution had for him no terrors. His passing was most peaceful Short ly after his demise his relatives ar- ranged for the removal of the re- mains to his former home and ac companied by a number of friends the body was taken to the railroad station yesterday afternoon. At the obsequies in Jewett City tomorrow there will be present Bridgeporters including members of the medical profession. Dr. Driscoll was a mem- Der of the Bridgeport Medical society, John F. Rogers Council, K. of C., and the Knights of St. Patrick, all of which organizations will be repre- sented at the funeral.

ROUTING
 FEDERAL TROOPS
 1000 MEN LOST
Especial from United Press.)

Eagle Pass. Tex. Dec. 19-Reports from the Chihuahua district of Mexico today declare that the Federal troops are again in retreat. following sec ond encounter with the revolu .ionists. Efforts to determine the loss on either side have failed to confirm a report that fully 200 Federals were slain.
 The engagement took place west of Chihauhau City yes .erday. General Hernandez being in command of the Diaz troops. Hernandez and Navarro Federal generals leading their com bined armies. were routed from that district Friday. Fierce fighting be- gan in the morning and continued throughout the day. resulting in the rout of the Federals. Although two weeks ago it appeared that the gov ernment had succeeded in crushing the revolutionary movement. all indica ions today are that the rebel propaganda are having an increasing effect over the republic President Diaz has or dered troops into Chihuahua. det"" m ned to overwhelm the insurrectoists.
 Bella ed reports today from La Junta are that the rebel victory of Friday was more pronounced than at first re- ported. Fully 1000 Federal soldiers perished in that eneagement. while the rebel losses were comparatively small according to today's advices.
