STRANGER IS
BARELY ALIVE
AT HOSPITAL
Victim of Railroad Accident
Between Halliday and
Marmaduke Remains in
Unconscious Condition.

The stranger who was struck by
a freight train Tuesday afternoon
and rendered in an UNCONSCIOUS
condition has never rega!ned his
mantal faculties, he Is yet at the
Para gould san!tariurn under the care
of physicians Very little hope, If
any, is entertained for the stranger S
recovery.
AS stated IN the first report CT
the mans misfortune. It IL apparent
that his skull was fractured by the
impact Of the engine, His body
was BADLY bruised and many severe
cuts were sustained about tho uh-
fortunate fellows head and sbou]-
ders.
Tho scepe of the accident is be
tween Halliday and Marnaduke and,
1t appears, no oCe In that section
knows anything regarding the
stranger. There has been TO de-
velopment that. would lead to tho
establishment OF clue rs to the
mans idectitr.
The suggestion has been advanced
that the man, perhaps, TSa sand
bagged or wayia'd end that &C
counted for the position Of bis body
xhep sEe train ran into him. 1t is
why re was IN crouch
ing position. Some are OF tho be-
Mex Ee bad been knocked ip the
head rust prior to tho arrival OF
the train and was in da2ed con
ji.ion when the engine. running
at q speed Of 2j miles un hour,
struck HIN.
The engineer CT the freight saw
the man before the fatal acci1eut
but could rot stop IN time to avert
1t. According to the statement OF
the engineer, tho mar was on his
hands and lNees on the east side

MUCH COTTON
COMING FROM
TOWNS AROUND
One Hundred Loads Receiv-
ed at Cins--Lake City De-
livers 81 Bales-20 Come
From Bucada.

Cotton deliveries today were un-
usually largo for the time Of week
and feature Of the receipts was
that good deal Of tho product came
here from distant points. The
weather ia ideal for picking and.
Judging from the activity of the
crop movement, all hands are in
the folds.
Approximately one hundred loads
Of the staple we're received at tne
gins during today and the prices
paid were 5:T5 cents in the seed
and II cents in the lint. These are
the Same prices the staple has com
manded during the past several days,
or since Monday when slight drop
was experienced. There have been
no developments in the markets
abroad to affect the price one way
or the other, it seems.
A considerable quantity of baled
cotton was received from surround
ing towns. Lake City led by bring
ing So bales, followed by Bucada,
near Arbyrd--On the Frisco. With
90 bales. Eight bales came from
6onath. Il appears that there is
little demand for the staple where
those rn1upities have been selling
their product. Buyers generally are
becoming heavily overloaded with
purchases aud it is causing some
inactivity in buying, 1t appears.
Demands for tho product from
mills and other consuming sources
continue very light, causing much
inconYeniences among buyers who
are becoming gorged. Ii mills would
enter the markets and call for de-
liveries the situation would be ma-
teris]ly relieved and general activity
would. al Q consequence, be much
increased
