Refugees are still coming out of Mexico via both coasts. The transport Sumner sailed from Vera Cruz last night for Tampa with all the Americans who had assembled from the interior at the Mexican port. The gunboat Wheeling brought 50 from Yucatan to join the Sumner’s passenger list. The transport Buffalo will reach San Diego. Cal., tomorrow with 305 men and twenty-nine women and ninety-three children, picked up at various west coast ports. The steamer San Jose sailed today from Manzanillo for San Francisco, ac cording to state department advices, with several American refugees and a quantity of American owned gold and silver bullion, which had been seized by local Mexican authorities and re turned at General Carranza's direction upon protest from the state department. Funston Suggested Change To Facilitate More Efficiency SAN ANTONIO. Tex., July 3.—The di vision of authority along the Mexican. border was recommended to the war de-1 partment by General Funston. He sug gested to the department if general field . operations in Mexico were undertaken greater efficiency would be displayed by i the army if three major generals were placed in command. Uninterrupted progress in the mobili zation of the national guard was made today and General Funston and his staff studied station maps that showed an army along the border line of more than (5.000. To a’ugment this number, troop trains were reported steadily moving from the north and east, while scores ofl freight trains bearing supplies and I equipment were moving towards depots designated by the quartermaster depart ment. Trains bearing guardsmen and sup-1 piles began crowding regular traffic to the sidings at some points today, but railway men were confident that the mobilization would be completed with-1 out serious congestion of ordinary freight and passenger trains. Additional -Missouri troops reached Laredo and the First Illinois cavalry was due at Brownsville some time be fore night. The Second Kansas reached Eagle Pass and the Massachusetts field artillery went into camp at El Paso. Two sections of the New York cavalry passed through Denison, Tex.. and should reach the Brownsville district during the day. The Fourth New York in fantry also has passed Denison on the way to Brownsville. The First Wisconsin troops to get into the south will be a battery of artillery and a troop of cavalry. They are ex pected here tomorrow and will go into camp near the Illinois regiments. Reports to General Funston from of ficers commanding along the border indi cated no disturbances last night or early this morning. The expedition into Mexico below Fort Hancock came to an end last night when Captain El tinger returned to the American side without having encountered any bandits. General Pershing continued his scout ing with aeroplanes over the Mexican lines. Customs Officials to Ascertain What Ammunition Sent to Mex ißy Associated Frews.) WASHINGTON. July 3.—The customs bureau of the treasury department today began an examination to learn the total amount of arms and ammunition that has been exported to Mexico within the; year. The work was undertaken at the request of the war department. Orders were sent to all customs inspec tors to tabulate the information and send it to Washington as soon as pos sible. B- As soc.ateo •Pn »» I EL PASO, Tex., July 3.—Corporal Frank Cooke, of the Tenth cavalry, sur vivor of Carrizal, who was brought to Juarez yesterday, was turned over to the American military authorities to day. Cooke's story of being fed and cared for by friendly Mexicans, aroused hope here thgt others of the fourteen mem bers of the Tenth cavalry command, en gaged at Carrizal now reported missing, may yet oe alive. It was pointed out that while it would be practically im possible for a man to survive alone on the desert since the battle, there are numbers of isolated Mexican haciendas in the district at which a wounded sol dier might stay indefinitely without word of his whereabouts reaching the American llpes.

Among these were the trains of the Connecticut guard. There were Indications that the original orders as to the disposition of the militiamen had been materially al tered. so as to strengthen the weaker points along the border, some of the troops originally ordered to El Paso be ing diverted to other points. Five trains carrying the Pennsylvania national guard organizations have been expected here hourly for several days, but whether they have been diverted elsewhere or are 'being delayed pur posely to prevent confusion heer during the heavy influx of militiamen, could not be learned, because of the military cen sorship on troop movements. Reports that an American border guard at Sierra Blanca, ninety-two miles east of here, had been killed last night by firing from the Mexican side, were declared unfounded today after an In vestigation of military authorities. Will Make an Appeal for Mexicans Near Starvation (By Associated Press.) BROWNSVILLE, Tex., July 3.—Act ing on an urgent appeal from officials of Matamoros, American Consul Jesse H. Johnson, and Mayor Albert Browne, of Brownsville, will today request Gen eral Parker, commanding Brownsville district, to permit a quantity of corn to i be shipped to the starving population of i the Mexican town. It is guaranteed by those making the appeal that none of the corn will reach the military forces In Mexico. General Rlcaut. commanding the Mex ican forces at Matamoros, is said to have agreed that the civil population alone will benefit from the shipments. BATTER? B "PASSES EXAMINATION WITH LOSS OF ONLY 17 MEN (Continued From Page 1.) agreed with Eva Tanguay and didn't : care. It was a picturesque scene, but a hot one. The band played and the regiment- i al canteens dished out drinks; sweet-1 hearts hung on the arms of the boys | they had come hundreds of miles to see; • children toddled along at their soldier- • father’s heels and over it all Jiung a haze of dust and heat that wilted col lars and caused many a fat man to be glad his father didn’t raise him for a soldier. HOLIDAY FOR THE BOYS. For the boys themselves it was a holi day, the first the Atlanta troops have nad since their arrival. All were suspended and the men were allowed to do pretty much as they pleased except for routine duties. Many of them ex changed places with the visitors, going to town to see the sights while the town- 1 folks were out to see the camp. Others loafed about the company' streets. It was a good opportunity for laundry work and each man was his own washerwoman. Company A’s Victrola furnished music to the Fifth, while the Second Infantry band played almost con tinuously during the afternoon. •REGULAR FELLER" AS CHAPLAIN. Several hundred attended the serv ices which Rev. Andrew Jackson Smith, chaplain of the Fifth, held at 11 o’clock. They were out in the open near the head of "Fifth avenue." Officers and men sat on the ground while Lieutenant | Smith mounted an ammunition cart and fired away. Lieutenant Smith is what the men c«U "a regular feller," and his sermon was a "regular sermon." It was a straight from-the-shoulder talk to the boys, tell ing them to be good soldiers, to serve their flag, their country and their God. The services were concluded with ; "Nearer My God to Thee,” played by the band, and as the old, old gospel hymn floated out over the camp, many eyes were dimmed for a moment and many a heart hungered for home. Not all the boys rested. The Second caught it hot and heavy. This was mus ter day for them, and from about 8 in the morning until late in the afternoon, through the hottest part of the day, they were under arms. First the Second was mustered in by companies. It was a long process As each man's name was called, he an swered “Here!” wheeled out of line > and tramped by the United States mus- • tering officer. Then the regiment was mustered in as . a whole. The companies formed out in : the regimental street while Major W. E. • Welsh reviewed them and the band play i ed the official regimental march, “Put i on Your Old Gray Bonnet.” It was an i inspiring sight—the long lines of khakt- • clad men, the color-bearers marching to the head of the regiment to the strains s of "The Stars and Stripes Forever." while the crowd of visitors packed them :; selves around the edges. IRRESISTIBLE TUNES. Some of the soldiers from other reg- I iments seized their sweethearts and one stepped in the dusty road. Automobiles • honked their way through the crush. The crowds cheered the Second and it did. indeed, make a fine showing. The day came to an end with a strong wind from the south which uprooted tent pegs here and there and cooled things THE ATLANTA SEMI-WLbKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, JULY 4, 1916. off so that the heavy army blanket proved a real comfort last night. Today the brigade, now fully equip ped. will begin the real grind. For the Fifth the officers are planning close or der drills and short hikes of a mile or so every day. Camp Harris is strictly a mobilization camp, not a maneuver camp, and the men will not come in for many tactics and maneuvers until they are transferred to some point close To the border. Orders that will send them there arc awaited eagerly. They are expected about July 10. By that time it is thought that the units will all lave been examined and mustered by the federal officers and will be reported ready for service. Will Recruit Hospital Company In Florida Immediately JACKSONVILLE, Fla., July 3.—The war department has modified the call for troops from Florida to include a field hospital unit, and Major Raymond C. Turck, of this city, a surgeon in the First regiment, Florida national guard, has been ordered to organize his company immediately. Today the re quired number of men. seventy-six, had been signed up for immediate service and will go into camp at Black Point in a few days, where their uniforms and equipment await them. At the Black Point camp, where the Second regiment, Florida national guard, is in camp, a battalion dress parade was held in the presence of several thou sands of persons from this city Sunday. The equipment for this regiment is on hand and the men are being trained daily, having already been mustered into federal service. Climax of Troop Movement Been Reached, Says Wood (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK, July 3.—While Major General Leonard Wood says that the movement of militia from the depart ment of the east toward the Mexican border has passed its climax, he esti mates that 10,000 more troops will leave their home mobilization camps during the present week. Nine states out of twenty-two under General Wood’s com mand have sent national guard units southward.

Liverpool fully met the local break of Saturday and there were a good many selling orders around the ring here at the opening which had evidently been at tracted by the bearish government crop report published Saturday.

July 3.—The cotton market opened steady today at a decline of 3 points to an advance of 5 points. Liverpool fully met the local break of Saturday and there were a good many selling orders around the ring here at the opening which had evidently been at tracted by the bearish government crop report published Saturday. These offerings, however, were absorbed by active covering at the de cline of over 93 per bale from the recent high level and the market steadied up after the call with October advancing from 12.84 to 12.96 and December from 18.04 to 13.14, or about 4 to 5 points above Saturday's closing figures. Private cables reported a quiet market in Liverpool with prices lower under near month liquidation. The market seemed to meet a little more cotton around 12.97 for October and 13.17 for December or about 6 to 8 points above Satur day’s closing figures during the middle of the morning. The Concentrated early buying appeared to have been pretty well supplied on this advance and prices eased off 4 or 5 points from the best under scattering liquida tion with heavy quiet around midday. The early afternoon setback carried prices about 2 points under Saturday's closing figures, but offerings were not heavy and prices turned firmer again toward 2 o’clock on bullish ®ot advance, firmness in New Orleans buying here.

CLARK & CO.’K COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, July 3.—-The trade has had time over Sunday to analyze the bureau ami cannot have failed to be surprised by the fact that the condition of the crop is now being atra denly given as one point above the ten-yeat average, when in Atay it was 2.3 points under. No such phenomenal transition is indicated in private reports or at all consistent with weather, conditions which prevailed during the period. Moreover, the June condition crop bears very little relation to the final outturn an the crop forecast of 14,266,000 bales by the government has only a figurative interest. At the present rate of consumption and with reserve® used up, the world will need a large crop. Liverpool was about as due. Futures and spots 13 points lower, sales 6,000 bales. Weather conditions continue unfavorable over the greater portion of the belt. Continued showers over the southern cotton states and the Atlantic's. The weekly government report next Thursday should be bullish. Indications are for contin ued cloudy, showery weather with prospects for heavier precipitation to result shortly from a disturbance in the southwest and a tropical storm in the south Atlantic, on which the gov ernment Issued a warning yesterday. The New York Dry Goods Review is more bullish than ever. With such reports of consumption spot hold ers should feel safe in their position and no weakness In spots is Uk’ly. With goods prices so much above cotton prices, mills are eager buyers, as shown by a wire from a Galveston exporter saying: “Never saw such a demand In many years.” Our market opened 4 to 5 points lower on the execution of selling orders based on the bureau reports and which had accumulated over Sunday. As soon as they were dumped, the market rallied to 12.82 “or October on buying for substantial sources. Holiday tomorrow gave the bears again some advantage, as much buy ing Is being held over until Wednesday. Spots are as firm as ever. The bureau made no impression on holders. There is no factors cotton offering at declines and only exporters are swapping a little hedged cotton. Mills want to buy on the depression and Inquiry Is good. July and August futures are way below spot prices. Montgomery. Ala., says: “The month of June was very favorable; plenty of rain has caused rapid d'elevopment nnd most of the pre vious lateness has been overcome.
