New York. June 3.-Cotton specula-
ton has not in weeks been so full as
that of today. Business from every
quarter was of a hand to mouth nature.
The talent sold out recently purchased
cotton around the opening and broke
prices several points: then turned Tor
cover and steadied the market almost
to Saturdays closing. There was lit,
tie or nothing in the way of investment

clined to sell than buy. The opening
was quiet with prices one point higher

tons named by the Government last
Friday and the continued rains through
out the belt east of the Mississippi
river. The crop reports received noted
'spotty'' conditions, poor stands, little
cultivation and need for replanting. AT
noon the market was weak and irregu-
lar with July having been down to 7.7S,
August to 1928. and October to 7.01.
Later room covering and some Wall
Street buying of August stiffened the
market several points. But at best
business was slim and mainly in the
way of settlements. Poor reports from
spinner centres and dull trade accounts
from Manchester with heavy port re-
ceipts were the factors upon which rooni
bears based their belief in a lower
market. The close was quiet and steady
with prices net four to seven points
lower.

Mary Henderson, age 40, was assault

Hsyatt, near Columbus, Mo. Francis
fed but hundreds of men are securing
the country and his capture and death
are considered almost certain.
Miss Henderson resided With the
Hystts on the farm near Columbus, in
the heart Of the rishast .szrieuitas.l !
district in the State. Wednesday even
ing the Hyatts went to the homo OF
friends for brief visis. Francis, who
had been = trusted employe on the
place for several years, was left to his
own devices. Shortly after sunset he
entered the farm house for his evening
meal. Miss Henderson personally pre-.
pared it and was about to call the ne
gro wEen he stepped into the kitchen
and attacked the defenseless. She
scresmed loudly and long for help, but
none was at hand, The negro was
driven, finally, by her desperate resis-
tencs to the yard in the rear Of the
house, but In the end she was over
powered.
When the HJatts returned Miss Hon
derson was found lying near the house
with bullet hole sbovs the left ear.
The only horse remaining on the place
had also been killed in his stall, evil

derson is said to have survived long
enough to inform her relatives Of her
asssiisnt. This announcement removed
all doubts from the minds Of the citi-
Lsns here, and half doz IN posses were
immediately formed Every inch Of
territory in the country is now being
secured. A suspect is under arrest at
Independence and another is being pur-
sued near Ssdalis. 1t is practioally
certain that Francis, if captured, will
be burned at the stake.

the present conditions Of brigandage

all they can to help the troops attain
