MAN IS JAILED ON
 CHARGE OF MURDER

Columbus, Ga, November 6.-(Special) J. D. Thomson, a well-known butcher of Phenix City, Ala, was found in the woods west of Girard. Ala, this morn- ing dead with a bullet hole back of his ear that told the story of his tragic end Bob Jiles, a white man, aged 63 years, reported his discovery of the body to the authorities. Tonight Jiles is in the Rus sell county jail at Scale charged with the crime. Jiles accompanied a party into the woods to show them the body and he was seen by one of the men to furtively take a pistol from his pocket and pitch it into the bushes. Later the weapon was recovered.
 One of Thomasons sons subsequently, noticed that Jiles was wearing the dead mans hat. When arrested Jiles had some of Thomason's papers on his per son. The explanation that he gave was unsatisfactory and the coroners jury brought in verdict charging him with the crime.
 The motive of the alleged murder is supposed to be robbery as Thomason of- ten had money on his person. He was walking through the woods to the butcher pen when slain. Thomson was about 4C years of age and leaves a family. Jiles returned to this community recently af- ter an absence of 30 years.

OPTIMISTIC TONE
 IN STOCK MARKET
Advances Are Expected Dur
 ing the Coming Week
MONEY RATES HIGHER
Bankers Are Not All Satisfied With the Outlook in Spite of the Easing of the Money Markets
 Abroad

New York November 6.-The facility with which November requirements were met in the money market relieved the speculation in securities last week of apprehension in a measure and eneour- aged a resumption of the operations for the advance which had been interrupted the week before.
 The week passed also without the fur ry in the financial markets sometimes incident to the eve of the election.
 The Food promise said to be discerned in the steel and copper industries was advanced as a primary motive for the fresh advance in stock prices. The easing of the money position abroad seemed to have an important bearing on the strength developed tin the stock market. Not only was the risk averted of di- rect demand on New York gold supplies bv a diversion of the pressure from Lon don. but there was evidence on the for eign exchange market that the Paris and London money markets were resort ed to by New York borrowers through the medium of bankers finance bills sold in the exchange market. It was believed that the resources thus secured were applied to the large operations in the stock market which have been the fea- ture through october.
 Banking opinion is not fully agreed AS to the clearness of the outlook. The eonparative ease of the call money mar lxet is regarded as partly fictitious from the desire of leaders to hold their funds silhiect to recall in the belief that higher rates will prevail later. The rising quota tions for time loans are corroborative of this view.
 Discounting of commercial paper Is very sluggish. The fact that the Michigan Central was driven to the issue of one year notes. owing to inability to place bond issue to secure needed funds was accepted as an additional symptom to the fall in British consols to the lowest price since 1S47, the f1attening out of the September activity in the bond rlxet and the growing excess of loans over deposits of the New York banks These various phenomena join in the in dication of a condition of strain on cap ital.
 Reports that orders for steel rails were coming in from the railroads and that conner was being bought for future de- livery and on a rising. scale ot prices were instrumental in holding the prices of securities firm against questlonapie factors in the money situation Il was asserted also that the stock market was antieipating the passing of the unsettling influence of the political campaign. The neriod of the elections is supposed to fix some intended resumption of demand for materials by the railroads and corre- snonding revival is looked for In other aa-a -+,,,e ents of industry.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF
 DRY GOODS MARKET

New York, November Cit was a quiet week in the primary cotton goods mar ket, the reason ascribed being an ap- proach of election and the desire of buyers to digest some of their recent purchases before proceeding further at the new level of values.
 There was some slight falling off in the quotations for converters cloths, but staple domestics held fairly steady. The trading in printed goods has increased materially for spring delivery. The job ping trade reports a continuance of 6 very satisfactory advance business but a very light spot trade. A carpet auc- tion in which s4,50O,00o worth of merchan- disc was offered was well attended through the week and prices were gen orally good, considering the state of the market in other quarters The cotton yarn markets are fairly steady but mills are not willing to sell the basis of trade in the dealers circles. The export trade has been light but some old orders are still to be filled.
 Fall River sold 5000 pieces of print cloth of which 45,00O were for future de livery The mills are running as full now as they were before the general cur tailment began early in the year. Fi- nancial pressure is still a factor in limit ing operations in many directions
