Admitted his Guilt, and Through
attorneys Appointed by the
Court Waived all Rights.
Publicly to be hanged by the necl,
until you are dead, were the words
that fell upon the ears of Hall Malone
monday at 2;3O Pm. when Judge Evans
pronounced sentence upon him, after he
had waived all right to trial and plead
guilty to the charge of rape.
Judge Evans arrived here last Sunday
ana at A. NJ. Monday convened circuit
court In special session for the primary
purpose Of trying Malone, as he had
promised to do when excitement over
the deed committed by the negro brute
was high. By9A. M. a special grand
Jury composed A. M. Galloway, l.. Il.
Byars, Y. Neal, j. A. Floyd, W. p.
Bal, j. W. Cain, j. A. Reed, j. |.
Smiley, D. W. Brodie, T. l.. Wallace,
Y Z. Montague, CT. Ward, A. Smith
A, d. Maxey, Thos. Spelce and r. &.
Curtis was sworn in and instructed by
Judge Evans regarding their duties.
The Judge at the time took occasion to
compliment the citizens of Crawford
county on their action in allowing the
law to take its course In case where,
WIN but rare exceptions, summary
justice is as rule dealt out.
AT 1890 the grand jury retired to
listen to the the testimony of witnesses
summoned by the state 10 prove the
charge, and at | p. NJ. handed out an
Indictment charging Malone with hay
ing committed the crime of rape upon
the person of Mrs. Rebecca McLoud on
the Cazort plantation on Saturday, Sept.
9Th.
Malone having made no preparations
Tor defense, Judge Evans appointed
Attorneys H. L. Fitzhugh and Park
Crutcher to defend him. After short
consultation with the prisoner they an
nounced him prepared to plead guilty
to the Indictment and ready to, waive
all right Of trial
At $3.50 Judge Evans had Malone
brought before him, and pronounced
sentence of death, the execution to take
place Nov, 7th, and to be public.
Thus within the space Of three weeks
the criminal has been brought to trial,
convicted and sentenced. We believe
II there was generally less likelihood of
delay In trying offenders there would
be less mob law, and all good citizens
commend the judge 8 action in calling
the special term for the trial of this
case, 1t Is when qnick trial and con.
viction follows the commission of a
crime that the ends Of justice are best
served and more lasting impression
made upon the class disposed toward
violating the laws.

Murphy & Co.,, Cotton Letter.

New York. January 31.-Speculation in cotton was on U small scale this morning. Unimportant changes took place in early prices Cables were rather below expecta- ton when we opened. A decreased move- ment of cotton was noted in many sec tions, but this was ascribed mainly to the bad weather in the south, although the bulls say that the bad weather is merely coincident with the falling off, and that we are now at that stage when the world will realize that the movement has passed the top notch, and that from now on receipts will be lighter even with per- feet weather conditions. Cables were finally at decline of 11k point. New York up to noon presented a forlorn op- pearance and hcsitating policy was ob- served in all directions. The movement for the week was 273,64s vs. 2e7,ooo last year. The weekly Liverpool reports show

 ran & Go.
 Birmingham, January 81 - Liverpool closed 2-64ths down on contracts; spots down 1-32d. Sales 60OO bales. We opened at yesterdays closing prices and up to 1 o'clock showed very little change The wires haven't yet been put in shape from damage done by the storms of past few days and consequently business on the exchange Is greatly restricted
 Both sides were nervous and we don't look for much change until 1t is more clearly shown what size crop we can ex- pect. The general impression in well in- formed circles Is that receipts will soon fall off but unless this view is shortly shown correct by an active falling off we can't see how prices can hold.
 In sight for the week, 274,000 against 237,11 last year, 249,949 year before, and 259, 210 in 1900. This makes the amount in sight up to February 1 about 27O,OOO bales more than the same time last year. Houston tomorrow expects $500 against 7454 and 6O93. New Orleans, 45OO against S7S4 and 10,341.
 Grain markets rather weak today, and prices a little lower Stocks generally firm with sharp rise in Rock Island and continued strength in copper.

The Metal Market.

New York, January 31.-There was an excited copper market today. At the metal exchange lots of from 100000 to 100000 pounds were bid for and offered. But no sales were officially reported though considerable business was done by private deals: One seller offered 2,000, 900 pounds electrolytic at 13c but the best bid was 12%c. Lake copper closed with spot quoted at 12&@13Ac; tin closed at $23 .00@24.10; spelter was easy but un- changed here; iron was quiet but steady and unchanged. European markets were a shade higher.
