The election excitement during the past week
has afTeotod business in the cotton markets
only to a small extent. Unfavorable weather in
most of the cotton growing rogions haa con-
tributed to strengthen the bull side of the mar-
ket and prices hav» tended up, both in spots and
futuros. The net result of the week's business is
a gain both for spot cotton and future deliveries
The changes that have taken place In the spot
markets during the past two weeks are shown

dling cotton to-day, last week and the pluvious

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
New York, November 0.~-Tho stock market
to-day presented very few features, and, as
usual, for the past week was extremely dull ex-
cept in few stocks, of which coal stocks. Union
Pacific and Missouri Pacific were most promi-
nent in the forenoon. Tho news of to-day was
of an uninteresting character and had no in-
fluence of im^ortant's upon tlie course of prices.
The closipg ligures were lower thun'last even-
ing's closing figures, and the market continued
to decline, btit ttye losses from first prices avci o
insignificant. Thp umrket becamo stronger and
closed quiet and p'trong. generally at small frac-
tions aboVo tha opening figures. The final
changes aro irregUmr and for fractional
amounts only. The railroad bond market was
quiet and without, any special feature whatever,
though the bfidneB^ done was very widely dis-
tribute among speculative issues. Tlie tono ol'
dealinp.KAvas lirm to f ttong throughout the day,
however, and ttio final changes are generally in
the direction of higher figures. Government
bonds dull and steady. Btate bondu moro active
and stronger.

No Second Trial for Harder.
The supreme court of this state yesterday
rendered a remarkable decision relative to
the trials of persons charged with murder.
It was decided that a disagreement of the
jury in murder trials is equivalent to an
acquittal, and that the accused person can
not be again arraigned for trial after one
jury has failed to agree. The ground for
the decision is the constitution, which says
that a man can not more than once be pus
in jeopardy of "life and limb." The su-
preme court in its decision declares that tho
constitution is very clear on the point raised,
and this fact makes it remarkable that tho
point was never raised before. Many men
have been tried for murder a second time,
convicted and luvpged, and it would be in-
teresting to know how many have been
hanged uncoustitutioiUUly in Pennsylvania.
The decision will have the effect of releasing
several men who are now awaiting trial
after juries in their firs'- trials liaa disa-
greed. Hereafter it will be much moro
difllcult to convict a man of murder in this
state, since the lawyers need only work for
a disagreement in order to save their client's.
