MOVE TO DISMISS
 OSBORNE CHARGES
Remaining Count Deals With
 Management of Sing Sing

New York, July 5.-On the ground that theories of prison management should not ''be threshed out by crim- inal indictment" Lee Parsons Davis. district attorney of Westchester has recommended that the last of the charges against Thomas Mott Os- borne, former warden of Sing Sing, be dismissed
 Originally, there were two indict- ments. One of these charged per jury, and various other items of al- legged neglect of duty and immortality. The perjury charge was disposed of Judge Tompkns, rendered a verdict of not guilty without hearing a wit ness for the defense.
 Of the six charges in the second count, two were stricken out by Jus tice Morschauser, and the sixth charging immortality, by Judge Young, the appellate division approving in a unanimous opinion.
 The remaining counts charge that MT. Osborne, as warden of Sing Sing prison. permitted inmates to exercise authority within the prison, that he allowed inmates to visit the death house and that he omitted to provide the proper number of officers. eThe first and last items referred to the working of the Mutual Welfare league. The death house charge was an echo of the Becker case, being based on the fact that one Murphy had conversation with the convicted lieutenant while he was awaiting execution.
 MT. Davis recommendation that the case be dropped is in the form of a memorandum filed in connection with a motion by Huntington w. Merchant, counsel for MT. Osborne, that the remaining charges be dis, missed for failure to prosecute and on the ground that the constitutional rights of the defendant were invaded by the introduction of improper evil dence to the grand jury.
 The indictment of MT. Osborne in Decembe 1915, followed sensation al inquiry by the Westchester county grand jury, with Frederick E. Weeks, then district attorney, and William J. Fallon, assistant district attorney, prosecuting. The indictment led to a clash with former Superintendent of Prisons Riley, in which he was forced to grant Osborne a leave of absence in which to defend himself MT. Riley subsequently, lost his posi- ton. following charges that he had tried to disrupt the management of Sing Sing by orders to the acting warden, George w. Kirchwey.

His fighting face has found the utmost favor with our allies. and they com ment most favorably upon his assid- uous attention to his work.

UNSETTLED AND
 NERVOUS MARKET
Cotton Reacts Sharply After Early Advance, But
 Closes Steady

New York, March 26.-The cotton mar ket was nervous and unsettled today, with prices reacting sharply after an early advance May contracts. for instance, sold off from 19uc to S.85c, closing at the lowest, while the general list closed barely steady at net loss of to 20 points.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of to 8 points and sold about to r points net higher during the first hour, This was on renewed buying by spot house brokers, attributed partly to covering hedges against weekend sales of spots in the south, while there was also renewal of Wall street support and some buying here by houses with Liver pool connections
 Demand was not as urgent or general as it had been last week. however. and the new high ground for old crop deliv- cries appeared to attract a good deal of realizing. At any rate, prices soon turned easier, with the selling becoming more active during the afternoon when the new crop positions were relatively easy, owing to prospects for better wealth CT in the eastern belt. July contracts broke from 1S.91c, the early high point, to 18.71c, while October sold off from IS 5lc to 1S.21c with prices closing at prac- tically the low point of the day. Political news from Russia was considered less favorable and may have increased the dispositions to even up long account. More or less nervousness was also eX- pressed with reference to domestic poi- tics and liquidation was attributed part ly to a withdrawal from the market pend- ing the action of Congress early next month, or more convincing view of the new crop start. No change was reported in the shipping situation and the outlook for continued dry weather in the south- west helped the early advance. Private cables said that Liverpool had been un- settled by political news, but reported continental buying of new crop months. The relative firmness of the old crop re- fiected continued shipments from the local stock while fresh buying recently had been largely in the new crop positions and liquidation was consequently more active in the late months.
