SHELBYVILLE, Ind, Jan. IL. -
Residents in the vicinity of the Pat
terson Cemetery, east Of Lewis creek.
are agitated over one of the most un-
canny sensations that has stirred
Shelby county in recent years.
Graves in the cemetery are being des-
peiled by some animal or agency and
none of those who have taken an in
terest in the situation has been able
to solve the mystery.
The situation was first discovered
by some women who went to the GEM
etery few days ago to put some of
the graves of their relatives in better
condition. They discovered great
hole in one of the graves and started
to investigate.
The investigation brought startling
results, for the women were greeted
with roar from the grave that sent
them from the. cemetery with quick
ened steps and blanched faces. and
they have not since returned to the
graveyard.

DAILY COTTON LETTER

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 24.-The recov-
cry in the market was evidently on a
false basis as it vanished faster than it
appeared. The sudden cessation in spot
demand yesterday either shows that IN
covered January needs are small, or that
the revival of demand was based on the
idea that a reaction was due after a drop
of ] cent in the market.
Liverpool came in weak this morning
with futures Is to l6 lower against to 9
lower due. Spots 20 points down. Sales
1000 baels. Gables attribute weakness
principally to unfavorable political devel-
opments. 1t seems that peace is not yet
a fact and disappointment and uncertain
ty may further delay mill demand and
cause weakness in spot circles.
First trades here at a decline Of ~
points. The market steadied on support,
probably furnished to moderate the de-
cline on profit taking by shorts and on
straddle operations. 1t will be noticed
that our markets have lately shown tho
greatest steadiness during the first hour
when Liverpool is still open. This is due
to the reversal of straddles. Selling in
Liverpool and buying on our side New
York reported support by the bull lead
ers, particularly in the March position
Trading is contracts settled around 12c
