RODRIGUEZ INCIDENT is BEING
USED BY THE REvo-
LUTloNISTS.
MANY COMING ACROSS BORDER
Marathon, Texas, Believed Armed
Mexicans Were Marching on
Their Town for Trouble.

Ell Paso, Tex, Nov. 1S.-The be-
lief is held here that the revolutionist
faction of Mexico is taking advantage
of the Rodriguez incident to forward
their plans. Sympathizers with the
plans to overthrow the present re-
gime in Mexico express great gratifi-
cations over each demonstration
against the Americans, and hint that
the trouble has only begun.
Mexicans living in this city and
across the border are, however, for
the most part, loyal to President
Diaz, and warmly condemn all efforts
of revolutionary character.

! LUCEDALE Man
FIRES ON Wife

MAN IS SAID TO BE UNBALANCED
Following a Quarrel, crenshaw seiz-

MAN IS SAID TO Be UNBALANCED
Special to The Nelos.


Lucedale, Miss, Nov. 1S.-One of
the most sensational cases ever
brought before the courts of this coun-
ty was made public yesterday when
an affidavit was made before Juestice
of the Peace Whiddon against Marion
Crenshaw, charging him with assault
and battery with intent to kill and
commit murder, the alleged victim
being the wife of the accused.
From what can be learened of the
occurrence, 1t appears that Crenshaw
became angry with his wife and quar-
relied with her, ordering her to leave
the house. Mrs. Crenshaw refused to
go, whereupon the husband seized
shotgun, pointed it at his wife and
snapped several times. Discovering
that the weapon was unloaded, the
angry husband inserted cartridges in
the gun, followed his wife, who had
fled in order to escape his vengeance,
and fired several shots at her fleeing
form.
Crenshaw is one of the best known
and most prominent citizens of this
section, and his rash conduct is at
tributed to a temporary ALTERATION
of mind.

why LOCAL RECEIPTS ARE LESS
First National Bank of Commerce
Handled Local Accounts This Year
Without Having to Borrow.

udtioHs ny tne Dull operators, the cOt-
ton market is somewhat depressed,
and indications are that tendency
of unsteadiness will prevail during
the next several days. Spots are
selling on this market at IA to IA IA.
At the compress the books show a
decrease in receipts and increase in
shipments. Receipts to this date
last year were 24,OS9, while this year.
up to and including last night, they
were 1883. Shipments this year
amount to 14,02S, against 1870 dur
ing the same period last year.
Stocks on hand last night amount
ed to 5,S32 bales, against 1907 last
year, showing a reduction of 1871
bales.
Tariff Hit Brokers.
According to Mr.. r. G. Hauenstein,
while Hattiesburg has received this
year $50 bales less than last year, this
is because Of new tariff which made
it impossible for local brokers to
bring cotton to this market from
points North of Laurel ON the New
Orleans and Northeastern railroad,
and from points North of Beaumont
on the New Orleans, Mobile and Chi
cago railroad. This tariff was in ef-
feet until a few days ago, when it
was superseded one which is practi-
cally the same as that in effect last
year, which gives local brokers a
chance at the cotton from points
North of the places named.
Half Crop Sold.
Practically all the cotton crop in
this territory has been picked, and
fully ninety per cent of it ginned. 1t
is estimated that at least sixty-five
per cent of the entire crop has al
ready been received and fifty per cent
of it sold.
A very interesting and gratifying
incident in this connection is the
fact that last year the First National
Bank of Commerce, which handles the
accounts of practically all the local
brokers, was borrowing $150,O0O to
take care of the situation, while this
year they are borrowing nothing and
still have a large reserve fund for
this account.
Forecasts Ginners' Report.
Commenting upon the general sit
uation, a prominent local broker said ::
"The market at the present mo-
ment is under the influence of an ex-
pected heavy ginners' report which
will be issued by the government
Monday. This report will show the
amount of cotton ginned up to No
vember IS. The expected figures are
from S,SOO,OOO to S,'5OOOO, and there
being one working day less for this
period than usual, are very heavy.
I'm addition to this, receipts are
very large, and statistics to be is
sued today by Secretary Hester are
likewise expected to have a bearish
tone. Hence, bull operators have
been liquidating, causing lower mar
ket.
From this time last year to the
close of the season, receipts were
relatively very light, and comparisons
for the same period this year should
be unfavorable. Crop estimates run
from eleven and quarter millions to
twelve and twelve and a half millions
and in some instances as high as
thirteen millions"
