NEGRO DESPERADO KILLED BY SHERIFF
 Black Wanted for Burglary Shot in Self Defense Near Plantersville

Selma, July 19.-tSpecialD-Ge Jones. a negro. who escaped from the Dallas county jail was shot and instant ly killed this morning in the northern part of Dallas county near Planters vile by Deputy Sheriff sam II. Camp bell.
 Jones. who was in. jail awaiting trial on the charge of burglary and assault with intent to murder. escaped about two weeks ago and went to Dolomite, where he entered a store and stole a pistol and some clothing. Early last week he returned to Dallas county and stole a Winchester rifle from a negro living in that section. He then made threats he was going to kill Deputy Sheriff Campbell, as well as all of the negroes who were implicated in hay ing him arrested. Saturday the negro sent word to Deputy Sheriff Campbell he was going to kill him.
 This morning the officer with shot gun went to the house where Jones was stopping. When he entered the negro picked up his rifle and although the officers told him twice to drop the weapon he would not do so Just as the negro was about to fire his rifle, Mir. Campbell discharged his shotgun. The load of buckshot severed the right arm of the negro just above the wrist and entered the left breast, tearing a great hole through the heart and killing him instantly.

NO CONCERTS IN | JACKSON SUNDAYS
Ministers Protest Against Music on Sabbath, so the
 Mayor Changes Mind

Jackson, Miss. July 19-tSpecial) A few days ago announcement was made that hereafter Jack son would have sacred concerts Sunday afternoon or night. but today 1t was understood that some of the ministers of the city have talked Mayor Taylor of the prop os ition. The mayor had given consent for the concerts. the understanding be- ing that only sacred music was to be rendered, but he has changed his mind. and Jackson is not going to get any music on Sundays.
 It is now reported that the mayor lis going to be asked to run curtains in front of the cages of the three mon key zoo in the city hall park on Sun days so that the youngsters cannot spend their time hanging around. Com missioner Taylor does not take to that proposition. and being in charge of the zoo" declares none of the zoo funds shall be used in the purchase of cur tains. It therefore remains in be seen if the monk cys. coons and rabbits are to be hidden from the children of the town on Sunday.

PRICES ADVANCE
 IN WIRE PRODUCTS

New York. July i9.-An encouraging fea- ture of the steel trade Is the large volume of business that could be transacted If the mills would accept current prices for deliveries extending beyond the third quarter of the year, but few consumers find incentive to anticipate future require ments. The American Steel and fire company has advanced wire products Sl per ton. effective today The advance was preceded by increase in specinea- tions and contracts for both wire and nails.
 In the railroad field the principal point of interest last week was increase in railroad orders. amounting to 17O00 tons. the largest being 37,000 tons for the south ern railway locomotive shops for IS en- gines.i Structural steel contracts again were light. calling for scarcely 10000 tons of fabricated shapes, but more large con tracts are being revived. Railroad bridge orders were small.
 New prospective contracts call for about 100000 tons Of steel shapes.
 The pig iron trade was light and prices unsatisfactory Total contracts placed In all sections last week aggregated about 5000 tons.

This issue of bonds aggregating $6l 0oOoOO. is expected to provide funds for the com pleucr of certain railway systems in Can aea. The Canadian government believes it to be expedient that these railroad lines be completed, probably because they are expected to open up to transportation, and therefore development, great areas of British North America which are be- lieved to contain natural resources or almost fabulous richness and also to offer large aleas for agriculture.
 The United States and Canada have CO., operated in certain financial transactions to considerable extent in the past two or three years Those who handle foreign exchange in this city and are familiar with the recent heavy expectations of gold are persuaded that one of the reas- ons for such appreciation in the quotation or foreign exchange as made the eNporta- ton of gold possible was the. fact that for reasons appertaining to conditions in the London markets Canada found 1t ex- redient to secure all the foreign exchange possible in New York and other of the markets of the United States where for eign exchange is handled
 The beginning of the recent exportation of gold was with Canada rather than across the sea Canada drew upon the United States sometime ago for gold in considerable amounts and the demand was gladly met
 When the detailed statistics which are now under preparation by the department of commerce at Washington are made public they will in all probability dis close the maintenance, probably an ln- crease of our trade relations with Can ada in the P months which ended on June
