convince the public that he is being mali

[nY ASSOCIATED PRESS /

Lee Summit, Mo-, Oct. 2a.-The body
OF Jim Younger, the bandit, who shot him
self at St. Paul, arrived here today and
probably will be buried in the family lot
tomorrow. Pall-bearers have been Sc
lccted from Younger's former Missouri
friends, several of whom knew him from
childhood and served with the Youngers
under Quantrell.
When the coffin arrived it was seen that
many splnters had been cut from the pine
box inclosing it, presumably by relic hunt
crs who had met the funeral party at diff
ferent points along the route from the

New York, Nov. 18.-The most note
worthy feature Of to-days market was
the steady and persistent though mod

Aside from the scarcity of time

tically equal to 7@8 per cent. for sixty

The Morning News Office,
Tuesday. Nov. IS.
The cotton market turned to-day on
what was currently understood to be
good buying from large interests and
less liquidation, thereby rallying on
what few of the market commentators
predicted would be the checking influ-
ence. The weather. crop movement
and other conditions We're given as
probable rallying points, and few
nointed to a revival of the demand in
the absence of any influence from other
important conditions.
So far as the movement is concerned
there is nothing to warrant
turn to the bull side
at the moment. for to-day's ar
rivals at the ports reached $4,000, with
an equal amount expected tomorrow.
Frosts have not vet fallen anywhere,
there is no prediction for freeze, and
all that can apparently hinder a full
crop to the acreage coming to market
is the ability of farmers to gather it.
This they are hindered in at many
points owing to a scarcity of labor.
The stock market at New York closed
weak, and in some quarters it is pre-
dicted that the effect of this will again
be felt in the cotton market.
Turpentine closed firm at Sic, with
the demand good. Resins closed firm
and unchanged from yesterday. The
