Miss Winnie Wilson now visiting
in Paris, Monroe county, brings
an interesting echo Of the great
Jester case which originated in
Monroe county more than thirty
years ago, an old man by the name
of Jester being charged with the
murder of Gilbert Gates near Mid
die Grove in 1871. The old man
was later captured but made his es-
cape from the Mexico Jail where
he had been taken for safe keeping
Thirty years later he was betrayed
by sister living in Oklahoma,
brought back to Paris for "a pre-
iminary trial, taken to New Lon
don on change Of venue and fin
ally acquitted. His alleged victim
was brother to John w. Gates,
who later became Il multi-million-
aire and president Of the steel wire
trust. When Jester was captured
his man of wealth put Il small army
of detectives in the field and en-
ployed the greatest LAYERS in Chi
cago to make use Of the wonderful
mass of evidence they worked up.
Jester died about year ago.

DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS. Oct 4-The map
shows fair weather No rain west Of
Alabama, but cloudy with general pre-
cipitat1on, heavy in parts of the Attain
ties, as result Of the disturbance in the
east Gulf, which has rather developed
overnight. Indications are for stationary
conditions in the western half for a day
cloudy weather and further rains in the
southeastern quarter of the belt Pres
sure distribution is also favorable to the
development of a distinctly cold wave in
the northwest by Monday.
Political news from Europe is rather
less favorable. Frontier fighting reported
in the Balkans. Liverpool met the full
decline in futures on our side, but re-
covered sharply in the last hour. First
trades here were al an advance of about
4 points, TO which 8 more were added in
the early trading. Support was based on
the unfaVorable weather prospects, but
fear of political developments in Europe
checked Determination.
New York operators said that big oper-
atUrs had covered and were favoring a re-
action. The market became dull after
the first hour and prices sagged. With
the threatening political situation in Eu-
rope and prospects for bad weather, the
market prefers to take a waiting atti-
tude for few days and much depends
today on spot reports.

GOT TON GOES UP
ON SPOT DEMAND
Disturbance Along Gulf Coast
Causes Heavy Buying by
Large Interests.

NEW YORK. Oct 4.-Stronger Gulf dis
turbances overnight and generally unfa-
Vorable weather map caused the cotton
market to open steady today, with prices
a net gain of to points over the pre-
ylous close. Heavy buying by shorts
during the first fifteen minutes resulted
IN near positions advancing to II
points over the early range. Liverpool
cables were much lower than expected at
the outset, but later cables reported an
upward movement had prevailed in that
market.
Trading during the afternoon session
was somewhat erratic and the principal
feature to the market was the aggressive
ness OF spot interests Support from these
sources, with absence of support from
the bear, were the dominating factors
for the substantial rally during the initial
trading to be so firmly maintained. The
entire list was an aggregate of 5 to 8
points over last nights close, with the
exception of October, which was ham
mered by few prominent bears, causing
TINS option to sag around the opening.
The demand from spinners continues
good and this will probably effect the
bearlsh feeling among a majority of trad
ers The technical position of the mar
ket is strong, as the local crowd is short.
combined with the belief that a short
interest is existing throughout the coun-
try, and If the predicted colder weather
prevails over Sunday and an early frost
is probable, it would undoubtedly cause
a wave Of short covering, resulting In a
substantial advance.

with prices net gain of to 10 points
