AMERICUS, GEORGIA, SUNDAY MORNING OCTOBER 20, 1907
RECEIPTS THE LARGEST.
EVER IN AMERICUS
All Records Were Broken
Saturday.
Eleven hundred and twenty-five
bales cotton made up the recepits at
Americus warehouses yesterday,
smashing all records of a day in wag
on receipts. Oftimes in years past the
thousand hale mark has been reach
ed and exceeded—thrice this season
already—but never before in the his
tory of the cotton trade here have
wagon receipts touched yesterday’s
figures—ll2s bales. It was the ban
ner day of the season—of many sea
sons—and brought prosperity and
business to Americus merchants. Al
ready nearly 18,000 wagon hales have
been received at Americus ware
houses, a fair crop in itself, and other
thousands are yet to come. Yesterday
was a banner day in business circles
and merchants reaped a golden har
vest with hundreds of cotton bales
selling at 11 1-4 cents and the money
spent here by thousands of busy buy
ers.
SUCCESS OE BAZAR
ASSURED IN ADVANCE
Eete Occasion is Awaited
Eagerly.
The ladies of the hospital associa
tion are busily engaged perfecting ar
rangements for the annual bazar
which begins Nov. 25th. The bazar
week promises to be of more than
usual interest, and the friends of
that noble institution, the hospital,
are working hard to make this occa
sion the most successful in years.
Mrs. Dr. R. E. Cato is chairman of
the amusement committee, and with
the able assistance of Misses Sebie
Wooten, Minnie Harper, Gertrude
Smith, Mrs. Butts and Mrs. J. E.
Hightower, the success of that portion
of work is assured.
Prof. McNeil has charge of the
music for the week ,and several fine
numbers will be introduced.
The booth committee, composed of
Mrs. W. J. Josey, Mrs. R. L. May
nard, Mrs. George Van Riper, and
Miss Lizzie McLendon, promises some
thing new in pretty booths.
Mrs. J. E. Mathis is at the head
of the culinary department, and “Ba
zar Week” is eagerly awaited by an
appreciative public.
PASSENGERS CAN STAY
LONGER IN AMERICUS
Change oE Schedule Today
on Central.
Effective today, the Central of
Georgia announces a change of sche
dule on its Americus-Columbus div
ision, both for the regular passenger
and mixed train, though the changes
in the latter are very small. Os prin
cipal interest to Americus is the fact
that under the new schedule the
passenger train will leave an hour
and a half later. The arrival will he
35 minuses later, leaving an interval
for visitors in the city nearly an
hour longer than heretofore. From
the stapdpoint of the merchants the
change will he welcomed.
Instead of arriving at 12:50 p. m.
as at present, the passenger train
from Columbus will arrive at 1:25 p.
m. Returning it will leave at 4:30
instead of 3 p. m. as at present. The
mixed train will arrive at 6:45 p. m.
instead of 7 p. m. as heretofore, and
will leave in the morning at 7 a. m.,
instead of 6:50 a. m.

BRYAN CAUSES QUITE
A STIR IN ATLANTA
Delivered His Address on
“The Average Man."
ATLANTA, GA„ October 19.
(Special)—William Jennings Bryan
addressed an audience of 7,000 peo
ple at the Coliseum at noon today,
his theme being “The Average Man.”
He was introduced by Gov. Smith
The interest in government of the
average man, who composes thhe
great body of the citizenship, was dis
cussed. State's rights in connection
with the school question in Califor
nia and the attempts of railroads to
nullify .state laws by an appeal to
the Federal courts came in for con
sideration.
In the morning an information re
ception was tendered Mr. Bryan by
Gov. Smith. At luncheon he was the
guest of the directors of the state
fair association at the Piedmont Driv
ing Club. At 4 o’clock in the after
noon a general reception in honor of
Mr, Bryan was held at the executive
mansion, when he shook hands with
a vast throng of admirers, At night
at the “Dollar Dinner” Mr. Bryan al
so spoke.
All efforts to get Mr. Bryan to an
swer the question as to whether he
will be a candidate for the Democra
tic nomination proved fruitless. He
will speak Monday night in New York
on “Democracy up to Date” and may
declare himself then.
COTTON VALUES WERE
LOWER AT THE CLOSE.
Ameriuu Spot Cotton Quot
ed I-8c Lower.
Cotton values sagged yesterday, the
trading being somewhat listless. Fluc
tuations were sluggish. The opening
was at moderate losses owing to a
disappointing Liverpool. So much
turmoil in the financial market finds
more or less reflection in the cotton
market, and bears hard on any at
tempt to lift prices. The firmness of
spot holders is the support of the
contract markets. Price changes were
narrow, the close being around the
opening figures. New York was 5
to 11 points net lower at the last,
except that October was unchanged.
Spot changes were the same as for
the day before. New Orleans was
2 to 8 points below the close for Fri
day, with spots unchanged. Liverpool
was 5 points off for spots and 4 to 7
to 11 points for spots and 4 to 7 points
lower for options. The ports re
ceipts were as follows: Savannah
14,786; Galveston, 11,787; New Or
leans 8,958.
In the Americus spot market prices
were reduced 1-8 of a cent from Fri
day’s figures. Receipts were 1,118
bales for wagon. The demand at the
reduction was good, probably enough
to absorb the receipts, but in some in
stances there was shown a disposi
tion to look for a better selling basis
this Week. The sales were generally
made on a basis of 11 1-8 cents for
good middling.
MEETING OE MILITARY
TUESDAY IS URGED
Lull Ranks Must Be Pres
ent.
There will be a meeting of the
Americus Light Infantry, Company
L, on Tuesday evening, and as it will
be one of utmost Importance Captain
Van Riper wants every man present.
The condition of the company, physi
cally, is rather perilous, and if the
organization is to be maintained the
men must co-operate to that end now,
if ever. The city and county will
doubtless tide the company over its
financial embarrassment of S3OO, and
if the members will pull together, as
they should, and doubtless will, the
organization will be maintained and
upon a solid basis.

WASNS PRODUCERS NOT ,
TO HOLD COTTON
English Spinners Threaten
to Go Elsewhere.
CHICAGO, ILL., October 19.
(Special)—C. W. Macara, of England,
mead of the international federation
of cotton spinners, warned cotton
spinners, in an address at a banquet
given in his honor, that if American
cotton growers attempt to maintain
abnormal prices that spinners will
turn elsewhere for cotton. In view of
the fact that European spinners have
been trying vainly for years to grow
cotton in quantities else, his
statement was not considered sensa
tional.
Anslejr’s ladles ready-to-wear de
partment the talk of the town. Never
lias such a stock been shown here,
never such low prices—all now on
the first floor. Don’t fall to sec the
lines. )
Exceptional because the suits
we offer at this price are not
ordinary S2O values-exception
al because in quality of materi
al, wormanship and finish these
suits are only comparable with
the high-class custom tailors*
$35 and S4O productions. Os
snappy style full of refined
character and individuality.
