NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
New York, October 20.—The stock market to.
day was lean active and not so feverish as yes-
terday, and there was better buying all over
tho list from commission people, and notwith-
standing tome realizing of sales and raiding by
tho bears, tho advance inaugurated at the open-
ing met with no serious set lmck, and the final
figures show material gains throughout tho
list. The bank stnfoment was no unexpectedly
good that the boars hastily retreated and the
list onco more moved up. There was no flirt her
features to trading and tho market closed active
and strong ut but a shade better from last night.
The entire list is higher. The railroad bond
market was dull to-day, but there was a v«>ry
evenly distribution of business and no active
features whatever. Tlio Bales of all issues ag-
gregated $5,583,000, but the market,like the share
list, showed a much better tone than was notice-
able yesterday, and the few changes are gener-
ally in the direction of higher figures Govern-

Inquest Over the Dodv of Anron Heau, Shot
t<» Denth.
JASI'KU, Tex., October 20.—No rain in this
section for nearly two months and potato
and turnip crops are cut short*.
The testimony of all the witnesses exam-
ined at the inquest over the body of Aarou
llean, the negro man who was .shot to death
in the Pine Tncky neighborhood, this.couii-
ty, on tho night ol' the 20th of September
last, is that there was a body of men, repre-
senting themselves to bo fifty in number,
not one of whom were known to tho wit-
nesses. The ni -ht was quite dark, and the
llrst order witnesses received was to put out
the light and tfet away l'rom the wa;.;on and
prisoner, which order they all n^ree in say-
ing they obeyed without much parleying
about "it, when quickly followed tlio
firing of guns at or near the wa&on. It will
be remembered that a posse of men followed
the man into Newton county and when
overtaken he was shot and seriously
wounded. It is generally believed that but
for the fact that Miss Lee was riding tho
fastest horse she would have been subjected
to a most brutal assault by the negro.
District court was in session in Newton
^county at the time this shooting took placO
"and indictments have been presented
against all the particip.mts in the firs ft
shooting in Newton county. Defendants
were placed undtr £UOO bonds.
