Trial Of Jeff May Will Not be Had
Until the Regular November
Term Of Court.

journment Last Summer and
is Again Adjourned.
Preliminary Hearing Of Governor
Griffin Will be Held the Last
of the Week.

court house this morning by Judge
Winchester, and" adjourned sine die.
The term was adjourned from the con
vening Of court last summer, and the
trial of JEFF May for the murder of

ing and threshing operations are in

large number from their work, an ad-
journment was agreed to this morning,
and the case was set for trial ait the
regular term Of district court on No
vember %. The bond given by May
in the sum Of $4,000 was held "a con-
tinuing bond, and May was ordered to
appear on November IS at 1O&o'clock
to await, the further orders of the
court.
There was no other business before
the term. States Attorney Allen asked
Chilkoff, who is in Jail awaiting trial
for the murder of Simon WEIGH, if he
wanted to plead, and Chilkoff said THAT
he did not. Afterward he said he
would get the worst of it if he told a
lie to the court. Chilkof has grown
fat while in Jail and has an adjournment
OF long, black whiskers.
Governor Griffin the negro who is
in Jail to await trial for the murder Oh
Brakeman Fred Stevens, was this
morning asked if he desired to have
a preliminary examination or to waive
examination. He told States ATTORNEY
Allen that he thought he would waive
examination. He said he was tryins
to get a lawyer from the east, and thai
he would have him present when his
trial was held. Griffin was yisibl,
nervous and frightened when he talked
with the states attorney, and appar.
emily realizes that he is in a bad plight
States Attorney Allen will summon
witnesses in the case and hold the IRE
l1minary examination Saturday after
noon of this week, before Justice Tib
bills. The charge against Griffin will
be murder.

Murphy 6 Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York, October 20.-Cotton prices were lower when the market opened. Not much importance was attached to a report circulated after the close on Sat urday to the effect that the big grain in-
 terests were accommodating a large quan- tity of March and May. Weather news
 over Sunday was bearish. since there
 was little rain and only moderate tenn
 perature. Crop reports through private sources were of recent contradictory character and generally favored poor yields. The important sustaining factor at the moment is the decreased move ment.
 The figures much increase decidedly In the next week if the large crop views are to prevail in some quarters as they have in the past. As usual the bull exprana- ton is that the decrease Is cue to poor roads and holding back while big crop people assert that the demand in the south is failing behind. that buyers for export have gone out of the market and prospects as regards the crop are sur ficiently bright to induce them 10 main- tain a policy of indifference; at the same time, it's certain that news of general killing frosts would stimulate specura- ton. Early in the day 1t was reported that Buston of Liverpool would issue tearish crop estimate. Despite this the market advanced after the opening on covering of shorts. although the business

 c. W. Lee & Co.'S Letter to Cothran
 & Co
 New York, October 2o.-of course 1t Is too early in the week to tell anything about receipts for the six days, but the way things are going now. we are likely to run 75.000 bales behind last year-thls is too much. as we said on Saturday; it is the movement now, not the weather. The weather can be as good as it pleases. and with a moderate movement the mar ket will work higher We look for . higher rather than lower market from a basis of $40 for March and May. The falling is so marked that the shorts will grow numerous Then. too. the reports from southern and central Texas are anything but encouraging.
 Planters, farmers, t..a lkers--in fact the country generally in that region-are said to be disheartened over the outlook This came to us in a personal way, and from disinterested people. If this is the condi- ton In the Brazos valley, one of the ban ner regions of Texas, let weather make cotton in northrn Texas. and let the top crop grow daily. 1t will be needed, every bale of It. But there is not likely to be an over production this year, and in this event prices are not high. It's the same story every fall-frst big crop talk, then small crop talk. Last week we had the first and the market broke under it: this week we will have the second and the market is likely to advance. May cotton has declined from SIS to S.2s, a break of about 1hc. The selling of long cotton has been considerable, and with anything like the falling off of 750O0 bales in the week 8 movement, would be a strong bull factor, For this reason we would pick up cotton on any break, and look for better mar ket in the near future.

BIG RAILROADS ARE LOWER

New York, October 20.-Irregularity marked the course of today's stock mar .ket. The controlling influences were the uncertainty as to the outcome of the oal miners convention; the rise in for ign exchange and the threatened action f the southern courts against the latest ailroad commission. There was some ma- srial gains at the outset however, es- ,ecially in St. Paul, Baltimore and Ohio, Pennsylvania, Missouri Pacific and Wis onsin Central On the other hand such ctive issues as Reading, Louisville and Nashville, Norfolk and Western and tchison were lower The strength of St. aul probably was due to reports of an Early announcement of rights The rst reactionary movement was checked y the increased strength of Baltimore Ind Ohio as well as pool movements in everal other stocks including Illinois ,entral At the same time Union Pacific mich had been fairly steady sold off and t. Paul also lost a point from, it's best gure. Advances in the issues of Mime polis St. Paul and Sault Ste Marie, oledo St. Louis and Western perferred, Kansas City Southern and Canadian Pa Fife were ascribed to various pools in- crested in those stocks. Practically the anne influences were at work in other uarters, though the strength of Amal- amated copper resulted partly from ondon's advance in the price of that etal.

 fact, the bulk of the days business,

SHORTS HAD A BAD SCARE

New York. October 20.-The cotton mar higher to lower. and then eased off several points slowly. under pressure of cotton bought late Saturday by insiders and absence of public support. The Eng fish cables lacked special feature and the weather chart failed to note the cold wave predicted by the government for yesterday afternoon. Later in the morn ing the market worked back to the open ing figures on promise of light receipts at the ports. Toward midday there was a sharp advance on scare of shorts, start ed by a very light estimate for tomor- rows Houston receipts.
 This fright had barely worn off be- fore New Orleans and Galveston sent in light estimates for the movement of to- morrow, this leading the bears to fore see a bulllsh week end statement on Friday, for receipts at the ports for the week thus far behind those of the same time last year, by nearly 40,0O0 bales. Tremendous export clearances, some thing over 75.0OO bales, then caused un- easiness among the bull faction How ever, there was every reason to believe that tomorrow's weekly crop statement from the New Orleans government off eial would be very favorable so far as late cotton was concerned. and some of the room operators went short at s.44 for May on this theory. The reports from spot cotton markets lacked special fea- ture but in fall river the trade in print cloths was at firm prices Wall street appeared to be buying January at S.6O in the local ring late in the day. The market closed steady and net l to 4 points higher Total sales were estimated at 250,O0O bales. Late weather reports gave heavy rains in the central belt, but general fair conditions elsewhere south.

Me,m orieana Market.

New Orleans October 2O.-In the spot cotton market today buyers and sellers were well apart in their views and busi- ness accordingly was considerably re- stricted Factors offered freely and un~ covered an excellent assortment, but they seem to be somewhat encouraged by the fact that the interior IS beginning to show a disposition to hold back ex- cept where stiff prices are obtainable and generally claim board figures for thelr lists On the other hand the purchasing elemen. are going very slow, and what few spinners are in this market are not disposed to purchase beyond present needs at the current range of values. Sales 5550 bales, including 2550 to arrive. Quotations unchanged
 The future market opened to points lower, followed by an advance of to 6 points in sympathy with New York. Pl ices then fell away about points, and later on steadied up again, and assumed a slight upward tendency, the previous loss being recovered.
