Lad FORCED to Commit Crimes.

At Ashland, Alvin Bell, Lawrence Muir
ray and James Larraby were held in
$500 bonds for a bold daylight robbery
on the person of William Mcfarland.
The evidence developed the fact that
LarrAby, who is only Is years old, was
in the power of the other two men, who
forced him on pain of death to assault
Mcfarland from behind, knocking him
down, when they assisted in the robbery.
Larraby claims, and his companions do
not deny, that he has been in their power
and that they have compelled him to com
NIT similar robberies.

Cargill & Richardson say of cotton:

weak and lower during the balance of the
session, closing 10 to is lower In New
Spots 1-l8 lower at New Orleans, II ut
New York and 4 at Galveston and Huus-
ton.
A summary of the weekly crop bulletin
was as follows: Rains are very generally

inmate the very large portion of the crop

however, and this should pnt the market

Our Manchester correspondent cables
that the condition OF trade there is unsat

resortcd to In consequence.
One OF our Galveston friends wires that
he believes that there is 100000 bales yet
In Texas and the indian Territory. and
that much wheat and oat land viii be
planted In cotton.
Secretary Hester makes the amount de-
livered from Texas during April $4,000
against $1,000 last year, aud the total In
sight to May /, 3,50S,000 against Ass, 600
last year. The States outside of Texas
during the same time were only 30, 900

II looks as If estimates Of the crop will
be again increased shortly.
