New York. November 10.-The snap
shown by the cotton market yesterday
afternoon disappeared today. An ad-
vance of 2-64d in Liverpool this morn
ing was regarded as quite favorable.
and the opening here was 2 to 4 points
higher. The bears appeared to have
gained fresh courage ver night and
Immediately began to sell again the
stuff that they had covered yesterday.
Prices yielded at once and until short
ly before the close the undertone was
decidedly soft. Receipts were quite
full and the outside business was
small. The bureau report was delay
ed until Friday noon owing to late
ness of returns from important sec
tons. In the last fifteen minutes the
execution of some large local n New
Orleans buying orders turned the mar
ket firm again. January opened at SGT,
advanced to $50, declined to 5.62, raj
lied to 5.66 and closed at SOS to 5.66,
with the tone of the market steady.
The feeling is still bearish, but less
confidently so.

New York, November 10.-Cotton
opened steady at a net advance of 2 to
4 points. following much better early
cables than looked for. The cotton
market ruled fairly active. but o
sold off. After the first call our mar
ket gave way on indications of heavi-
er port receipts than estimated, while
later English advices were less favor
able thar the early accounts. There
was some investment buying during
the forenoon, but the outside support
was not up to expectations and liqui-
dation set in, which caused a net loss
of l to 3 points by noon. During the
afternoon the market was quiet and
without new eatures and closed
steady, net unchanged to 2 points low-
er. Total sales of futures were 121. 600

english with a very strong German ac-
cent. Thorn listened to every WORD
with his lips closely compressed, his
hands Clasped and resting on his knees.
Frequently his lips became dry and
parched and occasionally he would
mofsten them with his tongue. His
face bore the same stolid look Of in
difference which it has worn all through
but his eyes were restless. When nc
was not gazing at his accuser he was
casting furitive chances around the
court room and up into the galleries,
which were rowde with men and wo-
men.
Mrs. Mack told of the purchasing OF
the oil cloth and other wrapping and
identified some letters which she got
from Thorn. She claimed that she
never loved Thorn but that he made
her assist him. The remainder of the
afternoon was taken up by bath rub
hers who had worked along side of the
murdered man in the Murray Hill
baths. One Of them was Guldensuppe'
nephew. and he as well as the others
identified the portions of the mutllatee
and deadless body which had been pick
ed up within a week a1ter the a"lu
crime had been committed.
Thorn's lawyers have decided to pu
him on the stand when the propel
time comes and they promise that whel
