J., Jan. 4.—James C. Gallai^her, declared lesrally sane by a .iury yesterday, was placed on trial to day bei'ore Justice Sawysee. on an in dictment charieins him with intentt to kill Street Cleaning Commissioner William Edwards, of New York, at the same time that he attemi)ted to as sassinate Mayor Gaynor. Work of se lecting the jury was inimeditely com menced. .T-ersey justice, proverbially sv/ift, moved with celerity in Gallagher’s trial The jtiry was chosen in little ov er 1(1 minutes, two of the nien selected having acted on the jury that declared Gallagher sane. Assitant Pro.«ecutor Vickers opened for the state, taking exactly four min utes. The employes of the steamship company told how Gallagher came to ihe steamship and inquired for ilayor Gay]ior. Their testimony was taken in five minutes and Commissioner Ed wards took the s-tand and told of the shooting and how he went to Mayor Gaynor‘s assistance. Gallagher took little interest in the trial. Wife Murderer Captured. P>y .\ssoclated Press. Atlanta, Ga.. Jan. 4.—John Withrow, a wife murderer from Farnin county, who was being held at the Fulton county jail, and who was one of tire quintet to escape two daya ago, was captured about noon today at Wesley Chapel, Ga., about 15 miles from At- !ant. He v.-as taken in custody by two farniers who recognized him from a photograph published in the Atlanta papers. Throe others of the gang also ha^e been caittured and returned to the jail. New York Cotton New York, Jan. 4.—The cotton mar ket opened steady at a decline of 5 a9 points under scattered liquidation and bear pressure inspired by disap pointing Liverpool cables and yester day’s rumors that ginning for the pe riod v/ould amount to a little over 400,000 bales, although these still lack confirmation. Active positions sold off to a net loss of lOall points during the early trading but there was a good demand on the decline, partly from leading bulls. The market stead ied consequently and rallied a point or two from the lowest during the middle of the morning. Trading became less active during the late forenoon and the market con tinned to fluctuate nervously within a range of 4 to 5 points with prices at mid-day show'ing a net loss of about 8 to 9 points. Offerings seemed to in crease on slight rallies while there were evidences of renewed bull sup port on the dips. Spot quiet, middling uplands 15c. nominal. The market showed even greater nervousness during the afternoon and prices gradually eased off to a net loss of about 17al9 points on the ac tive- months under scattering liquida tion and local bear pressure.

All the active issues showed fractional gains with a one point ad vance for International Harv^ester. There were fairly large sales of U. S. Steel at a slight gain over j^esterday’s close. In the special groups Wells Fargo Express was conspicuous for its gain of 4 points. Enough realizing followed the open ing advance to offset the new buying induced by yesterday’s show of strength. Union Pacific was freely of fered but the recessions in the other active stocks were not significant and the marltet soon steadied Quite a number of minor specialties were strong, Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste Marie and Delaware & Hudson ri.-^jng 2 to 2 1-2. United States Steel overshadowed the rest of the list throughout the early session, the stock advancing to 74 1-2 on extensive transactions. In some quarters ft bullish con struction was attached to overnight developments in the affairs of the de partment but elsewhere the strength of the stock was ascribed to the be lief that earnings for the fourth quarter of last year are likely to be in excess of recent estimates. The strength of Union Pacific, Reading and other market leaders resulted from an admixture of short covering and outside demand. Commissioners reported a slight increase of public interest. Money opened easy and the market for bonds was an active and broad one. Room traders stopper bidding up the market soon after midday and specula tion became quiet. Prices, however, were maintained at about the liigh lev el of the forenoon, many issues show ing advances of a point or over. The market closed weak and hesi tating. Late profit taking, a resumption of short selling on the theory that the advance had proceeded far enough for the time and a jump in call money to 6 per cent combined to give them arket a setback in the final hour, when most of the early gains were lost and some declines were scored. Operations fell off to a marked extent toward the close. Chicago Grain Chicago. Jan. 4.—Favorab'Q p, ^ advices from Europe today ; ;ok r'l buoyance out of the wheat ina-- i here.

Scarcely n business, however, developed. .; r started the same as last night a; 1-4 and kept within a shade of thut price. Selling by a leading MilwauKoo packer weakened provisions.

Trfda St. Phon* 349 New Orleans Cotton New Orleans, La., Jan. 4.—Cotton futures opened steady at a decline of . to 9 points on poor cables. The mar ket w’as not aiiected in the least by the cold wave over the cotton belt be cause there is no cotton in the fields, little cotton left to be moved to gins or even to be moved from the gins to marketing points. The rainsr and cold were generally regarded as favorable for the new crop since they will “put season into the ground.” Offerings were not heavy in the early trading and a moderate demand from covering shorts steadied the market. At the end of the first half hour of business prices were 4 to 5 points down. Reports of heavy ginning of tra.'^hy cotton from bolls that were only j^artly opened or less that were ■‘threshed” were received by many from the interior and were taken by the bears as confirmation of the rumor that returns from the gins dur- National Biscuit ing the period ending with the last National Lead day of December will be large. This talk against prices and in spite of bullish cable messages from both England and Germany prices sagged until at noon they were 11 to 12 points under yesterday’s close. In the afternoon session prices weakened under general selling. The trading months were sent to a level 17 to 18 points under yesterday’s close. At 2 o'clock prices were 13 to 14 points down.
