PRETENDED.

NASHVILLE, Dec. 1.-THE murder
of Ben Pettigrew, his son and daugh-
ter, ten miles from Decaturville, ana
the cremation of the man and his son,
was the subject of investigation Sun
day by Gov. Hooper, who called up
the sheriff of the county in which the
offense was committed, over the tel
ephone, and asked for details of the
assassination. The chief executive
was informed that two men are now
under arrest charged with the crime.
Should further investigation show
that there is reason to believe that
the murderers, or a part Of them, are
still at large, Gov. Hooper will offer
$500 reward for their capture and
conviction.
The crime was a particularly bru-
tai one. The three negroes were
slain with shot guns, and the bodies
of the dead placed on load
of cotton and burned. The negro
girl who was killed was said to be
but 12 years old.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.-There Is
an extraordinary demand in the East

Christmas holiday season, for quarter
and half dollars of the 1911 issue.
The director of the mint does not
feel warranted in meeting the de-
mand in full. Treasury officials are
unable to determine whether the de-
mand is produced by desire of the
people to make small presents to
their friends in new money or wish
of the banks to advertise to their pa
irons that they are distributing 1911
coins
Word has gone forth to the bankers
that for the present they need make
no more applications for new coins.
There is piled up in the treasury Of
fee a total of $17,5OO,OO0 in these de-
