JURORS ARE DIVIDED.

THEIR DISCHARGE.
Three Are For Murder In the Second

Charlotte, N. c., Feb. 20.-There
is every evidence that the Bishop
trial will result III u mistTiai. In fact
your correspondent was Informed to-
night that the jurors are hopelessly
divided, and there is no chance Of
reconciling the wide division that
exists.
So far as il can be learned the jury
stands three for murder IN the second
degree, six for manslaughter and
three for excusable homicide. The
latter simply means that three jurors
think his actions were in seIf-de-
Tense.
Judge Neal was informed tonight
that the jury was ready to report that
it could not agree. He notified the
deputy sheriff in charge that it was

port, has carried prices steadily up

last year Was heavy, and tais years
movement is nearly as large, the
difference being less than $4,000

There are some who predict ten

a that a great deal of cotton is held
on the farms and in rural stores, and
that present prices are too high. AS
no one knows how much cotton will

whether the supply will be ample OF

in the trade is that the final out-turn
of the cotton year will be below H.

The visible supply at PRESENT is
nearly 900, 900 bales less than it was
one year ago. In fact, it is smaller
than it has been in several years
and as export cotton is moving free

firm and even advancing. Nothing
