 ''Yes. that was It."
 In reading this letter Miss Gaillard testified Jones's mother stopped ab- ruptly when she came to the offer of money. Explaining her agitation, Mrs. Jones told the witness that her son was receiving a salary of $25 a slonth and that she feared he might yield to temptation.
 The witness said that she once over- heard Jones telling about a check. Rice was not forced to sign this check. Jones had said, but he (Jones) had moved the decimal point to make it thousands. Jones said he had the check made out to Patrick because he thought he himself could not get it oashed.
 Questioned by MT. Jerome about tho testimony she had previously given concerning conversation in a street car between Mayor Rice of Houston, Texas, and Jones, Miss Gaillard said that when Rice told Jones he "car- rled out these instructions we'll" he might have been referring to the care of his office in the cotton exchange in Houston.

 Joseph Jordan was taken into GUS tody as the hearing was about to be adjourned for the day. He is charged with perjury and the complaint is signed by District Attorney Jerome.
 Jordan testified in behalf of Pat rick last week that he had overheard Charles F. Jones. R.ces valet, who turned states evidence, confess that Patrick was innocent Ur the crime for which he stands { convicted. Jordan was closely questiond by MT. Jerome at the time and particularly was asked If he had ever been confined in the Texas penitentiary. He declared that he had never been in prison.
 The arrest today followed the ap- pearance on the witness stand of Will fam G. Murray who was guard at the penitentiary in Huntsvllle' rex, from 1877 to 1882 MT. Jerome asked Murray to identify Jordan. He did SO adding that the man was once pris- oner in his charge. MT. Jerome then applied to Recorder Con for an order for Jordans arrest.
 Counsel for Patrick objected to such A proceeding at this stage Of the case saving it would initiate against the interests of their clients. NThe record ar said he was reluctant to take the actIon requested by the district attor- nev in a case where he might hereaf- ter act as a trial juuge He advised MT.

 Miss Minnie Gaillard the Texas school teacher, was recalled to the witness stand today in the hearing of Albert T. Patrick for a new trial on the charge of murdering William Marsh Rice. Miss Gaillard declined to give her age when requested to do so by District Attorney Jerome, but when Mir. Jerome threatened to have her committed for contempt of court. she said that she Is between 30 and 5O."
 MT. Jerome accepted the answer and then questioned the witness about the affidavit in which she stated that she heard Charles F. Jones, Rices valet, say that Patrick did not kill Rice. She said her purpose in making this aff- davit was to help Patrick If possible
 You say that Jones was flush with money when he came back from New York Is that correct?"
 He was going around spending money and he had no occupation" '"
 Miss Gaillard's affidavit stated that she had heard Jones's mother read a letter from her son in which he said he had been offered thousands of dol lars to upset the Rice will.

 NOTHING DOING"
Downward Tendency was stopped and Spet ulators Look for Higher Level
 Since March Contracts Are Out.


 'sNothing doing" This homely. but ex- pressive phrase describes the conduct of yes- terday's cotton market:
 The downward tendency of the markct was stopped yesterday and the Montgomery market was unchanged. The nervous course of futures for the past week was also .s.o1 mo1 somewhat with quotations about the same as
 AZ the close a big New Orleans house wired to its Montgomery correspondent as follows; .
 "A good demand for cotton is reported from the ranks of tha exporters hut offer ings of grades such aF are desired being so limited business naturally Is restricted Good cotton is what the spinner wants ana good cotton the exporter must have to fui~ fill his engagements
 "Any clear and intelligent discussion as to the probable course of the market Is ir~ deed difficult proposition while public opinion seems to conflict as to what con- ditions are paramount in influencing the trade. For our part we are rather inciined to view preparations for the new crop and weather conditions that are to govern the same as the most important influence.
 The public is fully aware of the eornpara- lively small size of the present crop and the increased consumption of finished goods as the natural development of new territories throughout the world yearly takes place, and yet a deaf ear is turned and interest flags. Therefore t must be inferred :thst character and price changes will be com mensurate with tha views entertained. but for the immediate future. while conditions are perplexing. the speculative field ap- pears to he limited to scalDinR operations,
 Local speculators. many of whom are far mers, believe that now since the March op- tions have been liquidated. price will rule higher.
