New York Suns Review of the Market
A Large Amount of Cotton
in Storage.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.-The Sun says:
Cotton rose twenty to tWenty-one
points, then reacted and closed twelve
to thirteen points above the last prices
of yesterday, with the final tone steady
and the sales 800, 100 bales. Liverpool
advanced six to six and a half points
and closed firm with spot sales of
1U, 900 bales and spot prices 8 32d
higher. New Orleans advanced 1S
points and then lost seven points of the
rise. The port receipts were AZ, 030
bales against Sc, 500 this day last week,
73, 726 last year and SO, Az in 1898;
thus far this week, 149, 759 bales against
165, 900 thus far last week. New Or
leans expects to morrow 10, 900 to 49,.
900 bales. In Manchester yarns were
higher but less active; cloths dull.
Spot cotton advanced 8 16c. in New
York and Norfolk, &c. at Charleston,
T. at Wilmington and Savannah and
lice. at Mobile.
To days futures: Increased strength
in Manchester, on which the bulls di-
lated with much satisfaction, a rise in
Liverpool, good buying orders from
that market, large purchases by New
Orleans, a rumor that Neill Bros will
estimate the crop at $3.50, 900 bales,
and a Discrimination on the part of the
South to sell at the current prices
caused a very strong feeling in the
market here to day, which led to a de-
cided advance. Local operators Gov
cred freely. Wall street bought and
Southern orders to buy were plentiful.
Weak holders have been weeded out,
and the cotton is in the hands of strong
men. The general feeling Is bullish
The crop movement is comparatively
moderate and planters and country
dealers at the South show a disposition
to hold cotton for higher prices. Part
of the decided rise early in the day
was lost before the close, owing in a
measure to selling by exporting houses
who are believed to have increased
their purchases of spot cotton at the
South and following the usual custom
hedging against such purchases by
selling futures in New York. Besides,
leading firms sold at the advance to
realize profits, among them, it is under
stood, being Inman, Swan 6 Co., and
/ Wall street houses, as well as well as
the South. The speculation is once
more expanding.
Statements that more money has al
ready been lent in large quantities by
New York bankers on cotton In storage
were confirmed to day by inquiry
among cotton and export brokers. The
loans have been made necessary to
holders of cotton in warehouses by the
prevailing market conditions, and they
are said 20 be in a larger amount than
ever before in the history of the trade.
The approximate total Of the loans
already made~could not be ascertalned.
The cash margin demanded rules be-
tween 10 and 20 per cent.

self and the evidence given by the dead
body of the woman. The ground shows
that she had struggled for her honor,
and the condition of the body told of a
cruelty that has only been equalled by
Jack the Ripper"
A posse was quickly organized, led
by Deputy Smith, of Tyler, who, with
lanterns in hand and aided by a hound,
tracked the negro to within four miles
of Kilgore, where they found him fast
asleep in q cotton pen. The Negroes
clothing was still covered with blood,
which he had attempted to wash out.
Soon after the officers had handcuffed
him a mob of 200 men, heavily armed,
arrived on the scene and demanded the
immediate surrender of the prisoner,
which was readily given. The mob
then left for the scene of the murder,
where they arrived yesterday after
noon at 8 o'clock.
After his confession and the estab
lishment of his identity, a vote was
taken as to the mode of punishment.
Tt was unanimously agreed to burn
him, and it was agreed that he should
suffer the penalty on the public square.
The line of march was taken up toward
Tyler, and at 4 o'clock the head of the
line entered the main plaza wherce no
less than 1000 people were assembled.
Large crowds of women and children
were c~ongregated upon the awnings
surrounding the public plaza. Wagons,
carriages, trees and buildings were
converted into grand stands, and were
thronged at 4:30 o'clock.
A scaffold was erected In the centre
of the squarevCWagons laden with
kindling wood coal oil and straw. were
driven to the scene and placed in posi-
ton. The negro was then given an
opportunity to speak, but his words
were inaudible, but when he offered m
his last prayer his words could beheard
for several blocks. He was then dashed
to the oon rail that extended through
the platform.
Mr.. Bell, husband of the murdered
woman, applied the match and the
flames shot upward, enveloping the
negro In sheets of fire. He begged for
mercy, but without avail.
It was decided to burn him at once,
and as fast as the wood which was
thrown around him vas consumed 1t
was quickly ~replenished. From the
time the match was applied until ne
was incinerated was exactly nifty
minutes.
