Tlfton, Ga., Dec. 20.—Giving his
name as C. S. Pope, a man Saturday
presented sixteen cotton receipts, ap
parently issued by the Farmers’ Union
warehouse of Tlfton, to Z. J. Bussell
A Son, at Mystic, Ga., 16 mllea north
east of Tlfton, and offered the cotton
for sale. Seven of the receipts were
slsued to the name of J. M. Johnson
and nine to C. S'. Pope. The numbers
were 4053 to 4060, and 4065 to 4072, In
clusive.
Mr. Bussell considered It a bargain,
and bought the cotton, giving a total
of $901.07 for the lot, paying for It In
two checks, one to J. M. Johnson for
$391 and one to C. S. Pope for $510 on
the Bank of IrwlnvHle.
The man presented the checks to
Cashier W. J. Ballard at the Bank of
IrwInVIlte and received $600 In cash
und a cashier’s check for $301.07.
When the Farmers’ Union warehouse
was Informed* that Mr. Bussell had
bought the cotton they found that no
such, receipts had been Issued by them.
An investigation developed that six
teen receipts had been stolen from their
warehouse book, just a page or so later
titan their Saturday's entries.
Banks over the country have been
notified not to cash the check for $300,
of which no trace has been found, and
Mr. Bussell offers a reward of $100 for
the arrest of C. S. Pope.

above conditions Is cloudy over moat of the

not much business doing. The nm

vote Its time to studying l«»cal technical
conditions «s well as Inclination of the mills
toward restriction of output this winter.
We favor the short side conservatively, but
believe prices will rule dull and. flnctnntlon
narrow during the holidays.
