Caston left for Washington Wed nesday morning, according to his fi ancee, to collect government royalties. The next day she received' a post card bearing his signature from Bat tle Creek, Mich., and a few hours later a telegram from Detroit said Caston had been killed there by a train. Then followed another tele gram from Detroit and a post card mailed from Detroit late Wednesday night, bearing his signature and say ing he was leaving for Chicago. The. Detroit telegrams were sign ed by ’The Identification Company of America,” and bore a fictitious address.

McAdoo's Boom Is Revived by Announcement of Palmer for the Presidency 1 (The Atlanta journal News Bureau) 623 Riggs Building. BY THEODCHE TILLER WASHINGTON. March 6.—Both Democratic and Republican politics sizzled here tills week, the entry of Attorney General Palmer Into the presidential race giving' new “pep” to that contest; while in G. O. P. camps there was growing bitterness as Gen eral Wood entered Senator Harding’s own state of Ohio to bid for its dele gation. The telegram of Attorney General Palmer authorizing the use of his name on the Georgia primary ballot, which was tantamount to 'aying that the president did not expect to run again and the field was open to his cabinet officers and other Democrats, had the logical effect of reviving the McAdoo boom. With the White House silent as to its program, the boom of Mr. McAdoo for several weeks past has been in a state which Grover Cleveland might have de scribed as “innocuous desuetude.” Now that Mr. Palmer has come into the race, the path is blazed for Mr. McAdoo, former cabinet officer and the president’s son-in-law. Washing ton believes that Mr. McAdoo will get actively into presidential politics be fore the month has passed. It is I nown, however, that Mr. McAdoo had ! lather get in a little late and make a strong finish, than to have his cam paign run the risk of grovring stale before the conventions are held. Hoover Going Strong So far as reports reaching Wash ington may indicate, the sweep of Hoover sentiment mysteriously con tinues from coast to coast, although Herbert Hoover is no more a candi date today than a month ago, and he is apparently just as far from de claring- his political affiliations. In California, for instance, it is asserted that although Senator Hiram Johnson is the “favorite son,” numerous Re publicans are preparing to enter a full list of Hoover delegates in the Republican primaries. In the same state the Democrats are putting out Hoover tickets, and a large number of voters in both parties seem to want the former food administrator. Reports of increasing sentiment for Mr. Hoover have also come from Oregon and Kansas, and all along the Pacific coast, in fact, Hoover clubs are springing up. Most of these clubs are booming Mr. Hoover for the Democratic nomination and believe that he is a good enough Democrat to be the standard bearer of the party. Polls conducted here and there throughout the country show as a rule that Mr. Hoover and Mr. Mc- Adoo are in the lead in the Demo cratic field. Governor Cox is pegging I away, of course, and the candidacy I of Attorney General Palmer is too re- I cent to furnish Washington a reac . lion. Former Speaker Champ Clark I is still debating whether he will get into the Georgia primary, where friends have petitioned that his narrte go on the ballot, but the belief is here that if Mr. Clark forsakes the house of representatives for the hust ings, it will be as a candidate for the senate from Missouri and not for president. Nevertheless, the old Democratic war horse is still within range of the sting of the presidential bee, and he may yet determine to get into the Democratic free-for-all. Dabor For McAdoo The polls and straw votes in vari- | ,eus sections indicate that Mr. Me-] .'.doo’s strength appears to come i largely from the labor centers. It 1 is generally appreciated here that Mr. McAdoo will be >he favorite can didate of the railroad brotherhoods and probably of labor generally. As director general of railroads, Mr. McAdoo made a hit with the mil lions of railroad employes and their fellow workers in other crafts, by allowing liberal increases in wages. Ihe McAdoo strength in labor cir cles, nevertheless, may be largely offset by his weakness among f lam ers and certain classes of business men who think that labor probably got more than it was entitled to out of war conditions. National prohibition enforcement is ! looking here Ike a political issue and I unquestionably is worrying the lead ! ers of both parties. Indications are the conventions—at least the Derno ! pratic convention—must vote up or ; down a plank for a more liberal in- I lerpretation and enforcement of the I Volstead act. A “light wine and beer” candidate, the politicians say, may create po litical havoc in several pivota’ -t.it.es, because there is no denying the fact that the prohibition pendulum is be guiling to swing back. Nobody claims that the country wants to return to tne saloon, but members of congress from all states long ago made dry. t-ie getting kicks about the drastic Volstead act, repressive enfoi cement methods, and the workings of a law which nlalies it a crime for a man even to carry a flask of his own liquor in his pocket, or to take a drink in his own office.

Mr. Hoover. Mr. McAdoo, Vice President Marshall a. I Governor Cox ‘ are regarded as “liberals” in the I wet and dry situation. They would i strictly enforce the prohibition laws, !of course, but doubtless would go further than Mr. Palmer in advising 1 a liberal interpretation of those laws. ■ Both parties and all candidates are j beginning to, get worried a bit over j the prohibition reaction and are | wondering how far the program of I Governor Edwards, of New Jersey, 1 will get b fore the summer conven | tions. In ’he Republican camps the pres idential fight increases in bitterness. During the week the two most ac tive candidates were General Wood and Senator Harding, with Governor Lowden almost as energetic in the quest for delegtes. Messrs. Wood and. Harding rathe rtook the lead in 4>ubl e interest because the general invaded the home state of the Ohio senator and is openly contending for the Buckeye delegates. Senator Harding, now on a speak ing tour, may hasten back home to give personal attention to the V' >d complication, because it is apparent that the 1 rmy officer doesn’t want Senator Harding to put Ohio in his pocket simply because he comes from that state. WILSONTOSTATE HIS ATTITUDE ON RESERVATIONS WASHINGTON, March B.—Presi dent Wilson will state his position on the Lodge reservation to Article ten, probably today, it was announc ed at the White House. His attitude on this and other res ervations will be outlined in a letter to Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, the administration leader. He will not see Senator Simmons, Democrat, North Carolina, as re quested by Senator Hitchcock, but will write Senator Simmons telling hini the matter is sufficiently covered in his reply to Senator Hitchcock. The president’s letter to Senator Hitchcock was put in final form this morning. In it the president was said to have made his position equally as clear as he did in his conference with Senator Glass, of Virginia, two weeks ago. Administration officials said the president would not accept the Lodge reservation to Article X. They dis closed that he had discussed the so called Taft reservation to Article X with Senator Glass and that while he had not stated his approval of it, he did not say he xyould not accept it. A modified reservation affirming national control over armaments was adopted by the senate, 49 to 26. Nine Democrats, Chamberlain, Ore gon; Gore, Oklahoma; King, Utah; Kirby, Arkansas; Nugent, Idaho; Phelan, California; Reed, Missouri; Shields, Tennessee, and Smith, Geor gia, voted for it. The reservation as amended on motions of Senators New, Republi can, Indiana, and McCormick, Illi nois, follows: "No plan for the limitation of armaments proposed by the council of the League of Nations under the provisions of Article 8 shall be held as binding the United States until the same shall have been accepted by congress, ana the United States reserves the right to increase its armaments without the consent of the council .whenever the United States is threatened with invasion, or engaged in war.” On motion 08 Senator Lodge, the Republican leader, the senate agreed to liimt debate on all remaining, reservations to the peace treaty ex cept those relating to Article 10 and to voting power in the League of Nations. As a result Senator Borah, Re publican, Idaho, withdrew his pre vious announcement that he would move today to proceed at once to vote on Article 10. / Moving with unusual speed- the sen ate quickly, adopted reservations number 11, which reserves to the United States the right to permit the nationals of a covenant breaking state who live in the United States to continue their commercial and per sonal relations with American de spite the boycott provisions of ar ticle 16 of the league covenant. This reservation was adopted by a vote of 44 to 28. Reservation number 12 also was adopted, practically without debate by a vote of 45 to 27. It protects the rights of American citizens hav ing interests in alien enemy property. Reservation number 13, the labor section, was adopted a moment later without debate, 44 to 27. Tn an effort to bring the peace treaty to another ratification vite within the next few days, senate h.tiers worked today for some agree ment that would hold down debate and center the fight as soon as pos sible on the < decisive question of Article X. Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho, spokesman for the irreconcilable op ponents of the treaty, who had an nounced he would move today to take up Article X at once, held his mo tion in abeyance to see whether some other method of hastening action might not be worked out. Six reser vations remain to be disposed of be fore Article X is reached, and Sena tor Lodge, of Massachusetts, the Re publican leader, wants to go on with out upsetting the regular order of business. While they waited to see whether the White House would grant the requested conference between Presi dent Wilson and Senator Simmons, Democrat. North Carolina, on Article X, the negotiations for a compromise on that subject were continued. In these negotiations, which some sena tors believe may succeed, regardless of the president’s decision. Senator Simmons is acting for the Democrats and Senator Watson, of Indiana, for the Republicans. Failures During Week Commercial failures this week in the Unit ed States, as reportde by R. G.

COTTON NEW YORK, March B.—There wiys some Irade anil Liverpool buying in the cotton market at the opening today. First prices were 6 to 35 points higher, and active mouths sold about 9 to 24 points above Sat urday’o closing after the call on a scatter ing demand from Wall street and commis sion house sources. The easier showing of foreign exchange and the stock market, en couraged considerable local selling, however, while there was a little selling here from eastern belt points, and the market turned easier shortly after the opening, with May selling off from 36.02 to 35.88 and July from 33.14 to 33.02, or within 6 points of Sat urday’s closing. Prospects for improving weather in the south probably promoted some of the scat tered early seling hut trade interests were buyers of early new crop months, and the market turned firmer late in the morning on the large exports. May contracts sold up to 36.22, or 40 points net higher, while July advanced to 33.30 and October to 30.54. or 33 to 39 points above Saturday’s closing figures. Business was not active on the advance and March was relatively quiet dur ing the entire morning, selling only 9 points net higher. The market showed an increased strength during the middle of the afternoon owing to an advance in the stock market, Wall street and southern buying. Nearly all the more active months made new high grourid for the movement with May selling up to 36.39-and July to 33.49, or 52 to 57 points net higher.

The effect, of bullish weather news was increased by better Liverpool prices than due. The general opinion was that farm work would be greatly delayed by temperatures of freezing from one end of the cotton region to the other and tempera turse of well below freezing at many points. The large exports for the day, 41,079 in the early hours against 109 the whole <ay last year, increased the demand for con tracts. Late in the morning the trading months were 27 to 38 points over last week’s close. October showed the most strength and rose to 30.46. Private reports of considerable snow in the interior and predictions that it would delay plowing greatly, even with better weather in the near future, caused a further demand for contracts. At 1 o’clock the active months were 25 to 46 points higher than Saturday’s close. October touched 30.54.

SHEPARD & GLUCK COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, March B.—The cotton market, today was mainly concerned with weather conditions, the freezing weather over the belt, with snow here and there, being accepted as meaning further delay to new crop preparations; some buying was ba'sed on the day’s export movement of 55,- 153 bales against 109 this day last year. At the moment it is mpre a weather market than anything else and it is not likely to decline materially unless the weather out look improves greatly. CLEVENBURG’S COTTON JETTER NEW YORK. March B.—Cotton started out very dull, at about unchanged prices, but became active and worked higher dur ing the day, first on scattered buying of October, due to very cold weather south with reports of extreme backwardness in crop preparations and later on large buying of May and July, supposed to be for a prom inent operator now at Palm Beach. Sell ing was scattered. Aside from new crop influences the market was helped by two supreme court decisions favorable to the stock market. Sterling was lower. Ex ports were 55,000 bales today and 38,000 Saturday. New crop months look a pur chase on setbacks and should come up much closer to July and May. Very few, hovfbver, dare mak ethe switch because of the chances of squeeze in the old crop months. Commodity Prices Market movements this week reflected much more resistance to the downward trend of prices than has been witnessed for a considerable period, 46 advances in the quotations received by Dun’s Review com paring with 33 recessions. Pronounced weakness was apparent in dairy articles, more favorable weather and improved trans portation conditions facilitating receipts, and nearly all grades of butter and eggs sold at substantially lower rates. Meager marketings by farmers and moderate visi ble* supplies had a strengthening effect on corn, oats, barley, and rye, and, though prices moved irregularly, the net result was sharp improvement in the position of these products. Shipments of live meats showed some falling off, and, ‘ while de mand was not particularly active, sheep were firm, and beef and hogs scored some recovery. While it is reported that stocks are accumulating, and there has been quite a sharp contraction in foreign demand, yet provisions, as a rule, moved upward. There has been no change from the exceptionally strong position of iron and steel, but tin and copper were easy. In the other minor metals, there was no important alteration, the general tone being steady. Crude pe troleum rose to the highest point on rec ord. but most of other oils were practical ly unchanged. Cotton goods lack some of the buoyancy displayed recently, and a re actionary feeling continues the outstand ing faeture in hides and leather. Wheat and Flour Exports Wheat including flour, exports from the United States and Canada for the week end ing March 4, reported to Bradstreet’s, ag gregate 3,097.285 bushels, against 3,470,467 bushels last week and 4.681,344 bushels in this week last year. For the thirty-six weeks ending March 4 exports are 199,491 - 039 bushels, against 256,669,075 bushels last year. Corn exports for the week are 218,- 125 bushels, against 56.552 bushels last week and 70,060 bushels in the like week of 1919. For the thirty-six weeks ending March 4 corn exports are 2,637,847 bushels, against 13,446,067 bushels fox the same pe riod last year. GRAIN CHICAGO, March B.—Fresh strength showed itseelf in the corn market today as a result of evening up for the government re port on farm reserves.

On March last year there were on the farm 128,703,000 bushels which represented 14 per cent of the crop. Oats on the farm March 1, totalled 422,- 815,000 bushels, or 33.9 per cent of the 1919 crop againnst 590,251,000 bushels, or 38.4 per cent of the crop last year.

DEMOCRATS LIKELY TO CONSIDER WET PLANK—LAWRENCE (Continued From Page 1) concede any of the abox r e states, but for the sake of conservatism they put the foregoing in the doubtful column. As for states that might not be carried if the wet issue were injected the following states would be conceded to the Republicans: STATES: Electoral Vote Illinois 29 lowa 13 Maine 6 Michigan 15 Minnesota 12 Idaho 4 Kansas 10 Nevada . . 3 New Hampshire 4 New Mexico . 3 North Dakota 5 Oregon 5 Pennsylvania 38 South Dakota 5 Vermont . 4 West Virginia 8 Wisconsin 13 Washington 7 Wyoming 3 Total 187 O. O. P. Handicapped Os course, the Democrats, are basing all these figures on the as sumption that “a strong candidate" will be nominated. They would hard ly be able to run Herbert Hoover on a wet patform, as he is thor oughly dry. It would have to be what is called a “liberal” plank in order to tempt A. Mitchell Palmer, who is a prohibition advocate. But if Mr. Hoover were nominated, may be the Democrats wouldn’t feel the necessity of a damp plank. They might be disposed to let it be fought out in individual congressional dis tricts where the Volstead law would be attacked. Representative Vare, a Republi can, already has announced that he would ask for re-election on a wet platform. So have many Democrats. Thus individual congressmen might be fighting for a liberal interpreta tion of the liquor laws without re gard to the top of the ticket. As for the Republicans, the handi cap of the-solid south would prevent them from inserting a wet plank in the Republican national platform. They would noX gain southern voter by -being wet and they might ’o-e certain Republican states in the west. So the Democratic leaders have figured it out that the only chance of making it an issue on the presidential ticket rests with them. They point to the sentiment in New York state, Rhode Island, Ohio, and the recent victory of Governor Ed wards in New Jersey as an ’ndex of what might be expected in a I residential campaign in which pro hibition was an issue. They- always can count on the south. •The question really is, how many xvet states are there in the north which, when combined with the solid south, makes a Democratic vic tory possible? The foregoing tabu lation shows one combination based purely on the supposition that the liquor controversy would transcend all other questions, all other ills of the Wilson administration or prom ises of the Republican party. The Question If it were not for the effective use by the Republicans of such slogans as “Sound Money” and the “The Full Dinner Pall,” and other promises that had a personal appeal, the Democrats wouldn’t be so sanguine. They haven’t figured on what the women might do. But they are as suming that denunciation of the sa loon. prohibition of whisky and the fixing of a liberal percentage of alco hol for light wines and beer would win even the feminine vote or at? least split it. But would southern congressmen vote for a liberalization of the laws relating to prohibition? They al ways have stood with the dry forces. Would it do any good to vote for a Democratic president if' southern congressmen reverted to their prohi bition views after election? There are two views on this: These Democrats with dry leanings who say it couldn’t be done and those who are confident the southern Dem ocrats would be able to square them selves with their communities, in sisting that state laws would pro tect the south whilst the southern Democrat was in duty bound to as sist his northern brother in carry ing out a campaign pledge. THOMAS DEMOCRATS ASK FAIR PLAY IN GEORGIA PRIMARY (Continued from Fage 1) supply of ballots and a place to de posit them if they want to vote. Bepublicans Fear Hoover Thomasville is having probably more talk of the presidential race than the average Georgia town, for the reason among others that both Democrats and Republicans are here, the latter being numerous among the winter residents. A number of these are prominent in the councils of the Republican party. They are having considerable to say against Herbert Hoover and their attitude is con strued by Democrats as a pretty fair sign that Mr. Hoover would give the Republicans trouble if he were put forward as the Democratic candi date. Judge H. W. Hopkins, one of the leading citizens of Thomas county, was quoted along this line in The Journal yesterday. He very posi tively wishes the name of Mr. Hoo ver to be placed upon the ballot for several reasons. One is that he fa vors Mr. Hoover for the nomination Another is the fact that he believes in fair play and a free Democatic expression. Another is the fact that he believes that Mr. Hoover would carry the state and would thereby receive added strength and promi nence in the national sense. Louis Moore, a prominent at torney, was one of the numerous Thomas county citizens who express ed his disapproval of the subcom mittee’s action. “I cannot see but one side to the argument, and that is if the Demo crats of Georgia want to vote for Mr. Hoover they have a right to, and if they do not want to vote for him they can eliminate him without as sistance from the subcommittee,” said Mr. Moore. Interest in Hoover Grows Carl W. Ramspeck, a prominent young Atlantlan, was stopping in Thomasville yesterday on business. He has recently been to a number of towns in this part of the state. He told the Journal correspondent that he has found a very remarkable and growing interest in Mr. Hoover wherever he has gone. Judge Robert G. Dickerson, of the superior court of the Alapaha cir cuit was met by The Journal corre ? pondent on a train. Discussing 'presidential politics, he expressed the opinion that the subcommittee ought to place the name of Mr. Hoo ver on the ballot. His view is that Mr. Hoover is looming very large on the Democrat ic national horizon regardless of the subcommittee’s opinion of the Demo cratic eligibility, and those in Geor gia who wish to vote fcr him, or against him either, ought to be al lowed to do so. Personally. Judge Dickerson is inclined to favor Mr. McAdoo, although he somewhat doubts the latter’s chances in a na tional sense. TUESDAY, MARCH 9, 1920. State Wins Suit on Valuation of Ship Company’s Property The controversy between Comp troller General W. A. Wright ano the Southland Steamship company as to the valuation of the corporation’s property has been decided in fav-or ol the state by Judge P. W. Meldrim of the Chatham superior court, ac cording to official notification re ceived Friday at the comptroller gen eral’s office. The decision involves the con struction of the state law governing tax returns of corporations, anc Judge Meldrim holds that the South land Steamship company must re turn its property to the comptrollei general rather than to the tax re ceiver of Chatham county.
