Murderer Sentenced to Death.

SMITHvILLE, Tex, June a3.-Tobe
Cook, the negro arrested for the mur
der of Miss Moore last Thursday eve
ming at Upton, had his examining
trial today before Justice Moore, and
was held without bail. Sheriff Davis
took the prisoner to LaGrange for
safe keeping. Sheriff Davis received
a message from Governor Hogg this
evening to protect the prisoner from
mob violence and let the law take its
course. He assured the sheriff there
was a standing reward of $1,000 for the
arrest and conviction of every MEM
Der of mob. When this was made
known to the parties that had gath
cred here to take the law into their
own hands they soon dispersed, and
concluded it was best to let the law
take its course, resting assured that if
the party arrested is the guilty one he
will receive his just reward.

HE IS SENTENCED TO BE HUNG IN
HOUSTON.
HOUSTON, Tex, June 23.-Tn the
criminal court Monday Tom Caldwell
was sentenced to be hanged in private
on July 81. He is the man who was
convicted of the killing of DIR. Sham
bin in Fort Bend county in August,
1888, and whose case has been once
before the United States supreme
court and twice before the court of
appeals.
He did not realize why he was
brought into court and not until the
sentence was passed did he seem to
take in the situation. He preserved
his composure. DIR. Shambiin was
shot at night while reading the Bible
to his family and Caldwell's conviction
was on circumstantial evidence. This
mui der was the first of series and
which eliminated in the pitched
battle between the Jaybirds and the
Woodpeckers in the streets of Rich
mond and resulted in the death of the
sheriff and several citizens on each
side. Another strange thing is that
nearly all the leaders of both of these
political factions have since died q
sudden or violent death.

ST. LOUIS, June 23.-Dominic Gin

ing an investigation of the Chain of
Rocks riot, is of opinion that the at
tack on the italian laborers was with
the object of robbery more than any
thing else. Many of his countrymen

statements to Ginnochio. From these
men he has been led to believe that
laborers from other nationalities and
not alone Americans had made the as.

to the Italian government that the
Italians here have been receiving the

Ginnochio said further that there
was no need of making great hubbub
over the matter. The laws would
protect the Italians and punish their
prosecutors. He had done all he could

BELFAST. N. Y, June 23.-Jake
Kilrain says relative to the prospects
of the Sullivan-Slavin fight: ut is
hard to pick the winner. Both are
good men. They are evenly matched
but if Sullivan could get we'll and &C
into the ring ia his best condition,
think he would have the advantage OF
Slavin. Slavin is a good puncher, but
will take a punch to give a punch
and every blow a fellow gets helps tc
ay him out. Sullivan is the bigger o.
the two about twenty pounds, and iI
fighting trim weighs 2lO or 2l5 pounds
Slavin is a hard hitter and has long
arms. l had to take punch from
him to reach him, that's how l got

pulsion of payment of dues on nitrate

Cotton Circular.

NEW ORLEANS, La, June 22.-At-
wood Violet & Co. say:
Futures-Although Liverpool closed
264 lower than last night. a rumor
was started soon afterwards that a
strong combination had been formed
there, for the purpose of advancing
prices, and as the scalpers fastened to
cover on this report, prices here, which
had declined Z oints in the morning,
quickly recovered, but no advance
was established over last nights fig
ures, although the market was
several points higher. Outside of the
improbability that the formation of
8 en- combination would become
kno IN almost before it could begin
operations, we are reliably informed
that the houses said to compose it, are
not in it. The reasons given in the
telegram to US, contradicting the
rumor. are that financial affairs are too
unsettled, that one of the parties meu-
toned is already heavily loaded with
cotton, and is not likely to
add to the sburden, and in
addition it does not seem likely that
any combination could successfully do
more than cause temporary squirt in
the market until spinners begin to
show more interest by disposition to
buy. Should such a squirt occur,
there would be undoubtedly free sell
ing.
Spots-Easy and actually selling un.
der quotations which, however, have
not been reduced. Sales today 1900,
mostly for shipment to France.
