First prices were 18 to 22 points lower with July selling at 38.20 and October at 35.40, but there was trade buying at the decline and also some covering on the firm opening of the stock market. Prices stiffened up several points in consequence, October advancing to 35.57. The market weakened late in the morning under increased Wall street selling, which seemed to be based partly upon depression in the wool trade. Prices made new, low ground for the movement, selling off 30 to 40 points net lower, but rallied a few points after the publication cf the weekly weather report. The larger exports promoted covering during the early afternoon, but after arllies of 20 or 30 points the market became quiet with prices rupling from 15 to 22 points net lower after 2 o’clock.

The market was held steady by complaints of weevil damage in the southwest and by expectations of un favorable items in the weekly crop reports from the government. The decline continued until October stood at 35.10 c and the trading months were 30 to 38 points under the close of yesterday. After the reading of the weekly crop reports, the market hesitated for a while, but finally commenced to rise on the unfavorable items in tile returns from several states, and late in tiie morning stood only 3 to 14 points under the final prices of yesterday. Price changes became narrower and trad ing was mainly by professionals. Toward the close prices were 8 to 12 points under yesterday’s last quotations.

SHEPARD & GLUCK COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, June 9. —Cotton was moderately depressed today by the favorable weather over the belt and the moderately bearish import of the weekly crop and weathe rreturns from the government. At the same time sellers plainly were inclined to use caution because of the way the official reports confirmed private accounts of the prevalence of the boll weevil. The opening was lower on poor cables and the decline was widened by the dry weather map and expectations of favorable weekly returns. At the lowest of the session prices were 30 to 38 points under the close of yes terday. After the weekly reports were out, early sellers tried to get their contracts back, and their efforts caused small recoveries, the market at one time being within 3 to 14 points of yesterday's close. Last prices were net declines of 8 to 16 points. July traded at 38.22 c at its lowest and at 38.48 at its best. The outlook 1s for another good weather map in the morning, and this may give the short side the advantage, in the early trad ing at least. THE ATLANTA TRI-WEEKLY JOURNAL. GRAIN CHICAGO, June 9. —Bullish aspects of the government crop report led to notable strength and activity in the grain mar kets today. Opening corn prices, which ranged from % to 2% higher, were followed by material further gains. Oats started %@l% up and continued to make a sharp ascent. Provisions were dull and steady.

Friends of Johnson are doing all they can in an effort to convince big business that there is notning to fear from an administration by Hiram Johnson. Only a concrete speech on the sub ject to the convention would help matters in that direction and it is hardly likely that the California sen ator would risk such an appeal. Yet the friendliness of certain members of the “old guard” to John son must not be misconstrued. They are beating Wood with Lowden, they will beat Lowden with Johnson, then they will let the convention elimi nate Johnson and when the Cali fornia senator is honestly convinced that a genuine effort has been made by the leaders to nominate him, the expectation of those leaders is that he will play ball with them in the selection of a compromise candidate. If he doesn’t play ball, they will go ahead without him and nominate their own man anyway. For this con vention is in the hands of Senator Penrose. Senator Watson, Senator Moses, Senator Lodge, former Senator Crane. Newcomers like Will Hays and Tobias Hert on the one hand and supposed intruders like Frank Hitchcock on the other hand have been struggling for control only to have the bone snatched away by the veteran old leaders. The new “old guard” has been dis placed by the real “old guard,” who are wisely permitting the big three —Lowden, Wood and Johnson —to grind each other to pieces so that the veteran politicians can select the next Republican nominee and pos sibly the next president of the United States. At the present writing it looks as if General Wood will show splendid strength on the first two or thr£e ballots, will then begin to break as Lowden takes the lead, and then Johnson will make a final effort after which the nomination of Governor Sproul or Senator Knox or any other member of the dark horse coterie will J>e in order. Managers Fight for Control Two rival sets of managers are really fighting for control of the next Republican campaign and it is not al togeher pertinent who the nominee shall be so long as control is as sured the victorious group. Thus does the struggle between the Lowden and the Wood mana gers overshadow everything else. Former Postmaster General Hitch cock and his lieutenants are bat tling ostensibly in behalf of Leon ard Wood and Tobias Hert, of Ken tucky, is pushing things all he can for Lowden, but each manager knows that if neither Wood nor Lowden is nominated, the manuevers by which the dark horse named must be such as to assure a say in the management of that nominee’s campaign. Behind the scenes conferences ga lore and whispered messages from group to group intensifies the ex citement as the truth stares every contender in the face, namely that not one of the k men whose names have been mentioned for the presi dency can look forward to the balloting with any degree of confi dence. Fight on !■ eague Nay, the fights that are ahead may tear the managers further asun der. Senator Borah is determined to make a fight before the convention on the League of Nations. Some of his friends are openly quoting the Idaho senator as predicting an in dependent ticket it the Republican party insists on favoring the rati fication of the peace treaty with res ervations. Nobody says that Borah will lead it or that Hiram Johnson will sanction it for these two men have not definitely made known their intentions. But the shrewd leaders are beginning really to fear that the anti-treaty and anti-league sen timent will find an outlet of some kind in a new party. Senator IVfodill McCormack hints at it. Wil Dam Randolph Hearst plans it. William Jennings Bryan hopes for it. Nevertheless the senatorial group and the older statesmen who make up the resolutions committee which is to draft the platform have un flinchingly taken their stand with Senator Lodge in favor of the peace treaty “with reservations.” It is a first defeat for Senator Johnson and probably will be further accentuated when the convention turns down Senator Borah’s plea for a plank against (;he treaty and league in any form. Tendency to Ignore Johnson Notwithstanding the enthusiastic demonstrations for Johnson and the stand which a dozen Republican senators have taken against the treaty and league with or without reservations, the determination of the men in control of this conven tion —namely the Wood and Low den managers—is to brush John son’s viewpoint aside as inconse quential. They do not want to give the Democrats the clear-cut issue on the «treaty which President Wilson has sought. Indeed, there is a growing ten dency to ignore the California sen ator in many quarters here. His declaration that he wouldn’t bolt is accepted in good faith and further ahead than the present job of nominating a candidate, the afore said leaders do not seem to be look ing. Again and again, delegates are heard expressing the belief that Johnson is and would be a wonder . ful vote-getter but the eastern Re i publicans are almost a unit against I him, so that only a miracle can ! bring about his nomination. | That miracle may come in the form l of a death struggle between the , Lowden and Johnson managers, who • in certain contingencies might make | the effort to nominate Johnson, feel- I ing sure that the California sena j tor would lend him his strength ■ and support for a dark horse when j once lie were convinced that every i effort to nominate him had been ex - hausted. Wood’s Chances Setter j Only those behind-the-curtain transactions and negotiations count before the balloting. Like generals in a military setting, the greatest force will not be marshaled on the first advance But as the second and third ballots are taken, surpris ing strength unquestionably will be shown by Leonard Wood. The strategy of his commanders is to invade the Johnson strongholds right off the bat, and the raid on the Johnson delegates is expected to bring Leonard Wood’s total up to its maximum. Then the tug of war between Lot,den and Wood wli’ be on, with the chances for the gen- eral somewhat better at this writing than those of the Illinois governor. But the elimination of Johnson, Lowden and W’ood is only a matter of a few ballots. Behind the scenes a compromise candidate will be named Governors Coolidge, of Massachu setts; Sproul, of Pennsylvania; mer Governor Hughes, of New York; Philander C. Knox and Herbert C. Hoover may be drafted the moment the powers struggling for control make up their minds they must select some one besides Johnson, Wood or Lowden. s Cheer Keynote Speech Reading of the keynote speech brought much cheering from the con vention. Senator Lodge did much’ better as temporary chairman than did Senator Harding sour 1 years ago. The Massachusetts senator was bit terly anti-Wilson, something which the delegates thoroughly enjoyed. Every reference to the covenant as Wilson presented it, every sarcastic reference to the president’s negotia tions abroad, was greeted with ap plause. This convention is more bitterly anti-Wilson than the convention four years ago. Senator Lodge’s appeal to the people to overthrow the Wil son dynasty was construed as mean ings not only the expulsion of Mr. Wilson from power, but his pros pective heir, William Gibbs McAdoo. It was a well-managed opening with plenty of enthusiasm, plenty of singing or patriotic airs, plenty of jammed aisles and cro-wded thoroughfares, plenty of tormenting pickets outside inquiring by yellow banners when the Republican party will furnish the thirty-sixth state to ratify the federal suffrage amend ment, plenty of predictions of bat tle royal on the morrow as the re ports are received from the commit tees on platform and credentials and plenty of confusion as a new and self-chosen “Old Guard” carries on a fight within the ranks while the older statesmen hnd the convention crowd try feverishly to penetrate the whole managerial business. SENATOR LODGE IS CHOSEN PERMANENT CONVENTION HEAD (Continued from Page 1) candidate managers, knowing that today’s proceedings were largely per functory, were in no hurry in com ing and remained downtown round ing up forces and strengthening their lines. Many of the important figures of the convention, too, were engaged in the work of the resolution commit tee framing the platforjn. At 11:15 Chairman Lodge arrived on the platform with National Chair man Hays. A song leader tried to get the audience to sing the “Long, Long Trail,” but had a hard time getting out the voices The song leader stripped off his coat, and rolling up his sleeves, call ed for more pep. He got a little beter response and then took a hand at three cheers for the Republican party. He had better luck with that than he did with the song. Chairman Lodge stepped out to the speaker’s space at 11:20 o’clock and he got three cheers also with ,a tiger. Dr. John Timothy Stone was today’s chaplain. The convention stood -while he offered prayer. In closing Bishop Stone led the great audience in the Lord’s Prayer. The song leader was immediately on the job again and led the audience in the “Star Spangled Banner.” They brought out a stout oak ta ble for Chairman Lodge to whack his gavel on. He called for the re port of the credentials committee. Chairman Duffield, of New Jersey, came to the platform to present it. Report Adopted The report recommended the changes decided upon at last night’s meeting of the committee. Mr. Duf field moved- the adoption of the re port. Robert R. Church, Memphis negro, who had been unseated by the credentials committee, said he would not ask the convention to consider a minority report. “I know I am entitled to sit,” con tinued Church, “but I shall take my fight back to Tennessee.” The report of the credentials com mittee was adopted without dissent and the convention next heard the report from the committee on per manent organization. It was pre sented by Governor Morrow, of Kentucky, its chairman. As agreed upon, it recommend that the tem porary organization be made per manent. The convention liked the idea of saving time escaping another keynote speech and adopted the mo tion with chers. Senator Lodge got another demonstration when he step ped forward, this time as permanent chairman of the convention. “The best way to show my grati tude to the convention for its ac tion,” said Senator Lodge, “will be t-o tell you there will be no speech by the permanent chairman.” The convntion acknowledged its appreciation of that with more ap plause. Depew Speaks Chairman Lodge announced he would enforce the rule limiting speakers to five minutes and one speech on the same subject on the same day, upless the convention or dered otherwise. The resolution committee sent word it could only report progress and was not ready to present a platform yet. Chairman Lodge asked the conven tion what it wanted to do in the mean-while and there were cries of “Depew, Depew” from the floor. Mrs. Hume was on the platform waiting to speak and some had thought the honor of first addressing the convention would go to a wom an. Mr. Depew walked out on the speaker’s platform to an accompani ment of applause and cheers. “He needs no introduction to a Re publican convention,” said Senator ‘ Lodge, introducing him. | “Senator Lodge says “I!m an old I man, but he’s mistaken,” said Mr. ! Depew. I “A man down south who heard me j speak recently wrote me a letter and I said he heard I claimed to be only i eighty-six. 'All I have to say is,’ he i wrote, ’is that you are either a mir- I acle or a damned liar.’ ” | Paul Howard, of Cleveland, 0.. pre | sented the report of the committee ;on rules and order of business. The I report recommended seating delegate I representation in the national con i vention at four delegates-at-large from each state, one delegate from each congressional and one additional delegate for each district in which not less than 7,000 votes have been cast for a Republican candidate at the last election. The only new material in the rules, Chairman Howland announc ed, was an increase in the executive committee of the Republican nation al committee from ten to fifteen A EFFORTS MADE TO KEEP TREATY FROM CONVENTION FLOOR (Continued from Fage 1) Park, urged a dozen planks for legis lation to improve the conditions of women in industry, to reduce the cost of living, and for further fed eral supervision of public morals. Mrs. George Gelhart, Missouri, ad vocating an anti-high cost of living plank, suggested federal regulation of the marketing and distribution of food and federal appropriations for training in home economics. Suffrage Flank Miss Mary Garrett Hay, of the National American Woman Suffrage association, presented a plank pledg ing the party to exert its best ef forts to obtain ratification of the suffrage amendment by the thirty sixth state in time to let all the women vote next November. She told the committee, among other things, that ratification means that doubtful states like Missouri and Indiana will be in the Republican column. Anti-suffragists, contending for a state’s right plank, nearly broke up the hearing. Miss Mary Kilbreth, of New York, said suffrage candidates always went to defeat in elections and declared it inexpedient for the Republican party to take chances on the eve of a national contest. Enforcement of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments in the south with respect to negro voting was demanded by Andrew B. Humphreys, New York, and Thomas Birming ham. Thomas M. McCarter, New Jersey, and George Wharton Pepper, Phila delphia, said the party should record itself as favoring aid for public utili ties, suffering from straitened credit. Thomas E. Campbell, of Arizona, urged the need of reclamation in the west. E. J. Adams, Oregon, said the government should pay its share of the cost of road-building in forest reserves. members and a new assistant secre tary. “Without saying so in expressed terms,” he said, “this is to take care of our reinforcements to the Repub lican party—the ladies.” The understanding is that the ad ditional places will all go to women. The convention speedily adopted the report. Fling at Wilson Mr. Depew said the country need ed experienced statesmanship to deal with the problems frowing out of the war. declaring the Republican party had handled it “with ability” after the Civil war, and has proved its quality to do so. Mr. Depew took successive flings at President Wilson’s trip to Eu ropes to the great amusement of the delegates. Other presidents, he said, had dealt with foreign nations, but had se lected the best brains and men in the country to go and do it. "When Mr. Wilson went to Europe and the politicians and diplomats sai dto him ‘What do you want?’ he replied, ‘I want a League of Na tions, a heaven on earth, of which I shall be the recording angel.’ ” The convention gos a good laugh out of that. “The League of Nations is h§re' and there is no man who can add one word to the description which was given by our chairman, Senator Lodge. As I travel about man after man comes to me and says ‘I always have been a Democrat, but Mr. Wil son has taken away every principle of the Democratic /party and I want you to nominate /a good man and win.’ “I think during the summer mil lions of these Democrats will vote ur ticket.” At that point Mr. Depew couldn't resist the temptatiori to tell a storv. Then, in a more serious vein. Mr. Depew, speaking as a veteran of 65 years on the Republican plat form, prophesied that out of the convention would come wisdom and enthusiasm, and that the nation “standing for the principles of Washington, Lincoln and Roosevelt, would take its place as a leader for the peace and unity and civiliza tion of mankind. There were calls for various speak ers after Mr. Depew had retired and amid a whirlwind of cheering Mr. Lodge introduced Mrs. Margaret Hill McCarter, of Kansas, who got rounds of cheers. Moving Picture Taken The convention stood while Mrs. McCarter took the platform. She wore a close-fitting turban with a neck piece of monkey fur and a taupe gown. Mrs. McCarter was in good voice and evidently reached the farthest part of the hall. "The women of America,’ she said, “are organized and trained and ready for the duties of citizenship.” Mrs. McCarter’s speech was short, but snappy and the audience liked it. The movie men demanded a shot at the first woman speaker on a ■ Republican platform. “Please be quiet,” asked Senator, Lodge, “while we endure one of the afflictions of public life—being taken for the movies.” While the movie men were getting their! “shot” a song leader distract ed the attention of the convention in singing the Battle Hymn of the Republic.” The audience entered into the spirit of the thing and sang the chorus, “Glory, Glory Hallelu yah.” With the accent on the “yah.” Delegates to the Republican na tional convention assembled at the Coliseum today for the second Ses sion with the’ir views as to who shall lead the party at the polls next No- I vember still a mystery, even so I themselves. i There were some loud cries for I “Uncle Joe Cannon” from the floor, i but Chairman Lodge announced that ; the former speaker was not in the ! hall.

Atlanta Gets Great Ad Club Meeting BY O. B. KEELER (Staff Correspondent of The Journal) INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., June 9. First ballot: Atlanta, 63; Milwaukee, 49. Second ballot - Atlanta, 112; M’l waukee on the band wagon. So it’s Atlanta in 1921 sure enough, as the Lowenstein classic has So often declared tc the stirring meas ures of “The Battle Hymn of ’he Republic.” Des Moines, touted as the dark horse of the convention, ran away four miles, going to the post, ar.d was gracefully extracted from the situation. Atlanta has gone and got it again, the biggest and most im portant conventioa of its history thus far; and there is nothing to mar the joy of the occasion, if only Dave Webb and Dick Smith, with the two Freds, Houser and Hamlin, and G. Arthur Howell and Charlies Chalmers, Atkinson, Hohenstein et al., and several other wheelhorses survive the combat. These noble heroes are struggling back toward consciousness this morning through a pink haze of con valescence, while a number of others, more or less prominent in the fray, are to be numbered distinctly as casualties. The Wednesday morning general session of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World may not be so heavily patronized as the two pre vious matutinal gatherings. But there is a marked increase in the ice business; and the arms of Mor pheus probably are bulging with earnest sleepers, long past due. Details of the second battle of Vincennes can be summarized brief ly, but we stood first on one ear and then on the other until 11:45 o’clock last night before Fred Hamlin wob bled Into the expectant throng in the lobby of the Claypool hotel. Fred looked white and very tired, but he wore a grin. Welkin Splits Like Locust “It’s all right fellows,” he said. “We got it. First ballot—63 to 49.” Whereupon the well-known wel kin split up the back like a locust. One long-drawn roar of delight rat tled like a burst of shrapnel against the highly ornate ceiling and went crackling down the corridors. Then Dave Webb fell off a table and the orchestra played “Dixie.” You know how a bunch of south erners can yell for “Dixie” any old time. Well, you ought to have heard them then.
