Cables were better than due and, there was some uncertainty regarding weather condi tions in the eastern belt where the high temperatures of yesterday were followed by showers or electrical storms. Ou the other hand improving crop reports were received from Texas while it was anticipated that the weekly report of the weather bureau would make a very favorable showing, and the opening was 2 points higher on July but unchanged to 7 points lower on later months. Liverpool was a buyer and there was a renewal of yesterday’s covering which sent the active months about 17 to 26 points higher after the call with July selling at 38.12 and October at 35.16. The demand from shorts became less active later in the morning and prices sagged off toward midday in anticipation of a favor able weekly weather report. This proved even better than looked for and i>rices broke below last night’s closing figures during the noon hour with July selling off to 37.85 and October to 34.85 or 5 to 10 points net lower and about 27 to 33 points from the high level of the morning. Trading was quiet during the middle of the afternoon, and fluctuations narrow, with prices showing rallies of a few points on I covering. October sold at 34.50 Con the midday break and later ruled around 34.92 c, compared with 34.90 c at the close yesterday, NEW YORK COTTO Ji The following were the ruling prices In the exchange today?

July sold down to 37.85 and then re acted to 38.02. The weekly crop reports from the govern ment were considered more favorable than expected and by some traders were set down as the most favorable thus far this season but they led to only’ moderate selling. Late in the morning the trading months were < points down to 5 points up compared with the final prices of yesterday. Late in the session the market broke sharply under expectations of another favor able map tomorrow morning and comment to the effect that, while the June condi tion of the crop last year was under the May figures, the revrs was likly this year. The decline carried prices 30 to 40 points under yesterday’s close, July touching 37.60 c.

If this ’ should occur it may give an excellent oppor- . tunity to buy. 1 S. B.

E. W. Wagner: We can see nothing to change our views, vis: that any continued J upward movement is not on the cards ex- ' cept on bad crop news.

She walked into the dining room and surprised a man in the act of piling a quantity of silverware into a bur lap bag. Startled by the boldness of Mrs. Kaiser' the intruder ran to the front window and out onto the fire escape. Mrs. Kaiser and the man reached the street at the same time and he ran east toward Seventh avenue, with the woman a close second. He turned north in Seventh avenue and ■was stopped at One Hundred and Fif teenth street by Detectives Gompers and Walsh, of the West One Hundred and Twenty-third street station, who heard Mrs. Kaiser’s screams. At the stationhouse, where the woman pre ferred a charge of burglary against him, the man described himself as Antonio Dermocida, twenty-nine ye <^F, s old ’ livin & at Mills hotel No. 3. “I’ll say that you are some run ner,’ the prisoner said to Mrs. Kaiser as he was b&ing led to a cell. “You’re all right.” Liberty Bond Market NEW YORK, June 16. —Final prices today on Liberty bonds were: 3%s $91.94 First 4s 55.40 Second 4s 85.10 First 4%s ..

On the whole they were the best re ports yet isued this season, indicating im provement in all states and speaking of hot weather and lack of rain as conducive to crop progress. We do not believe a bull movement at this time, based on high tem peratures, can be considered to be well founded.

MUNICIPALMABKET FOR FARM PRODUCE IS PUB HERE Decision to open a municipal curb market on Saturday, June 26, where farmers and truck growers may dis pose of their produce directly to the consumer, was reached Wednesday morning at a*conference in the office of Mayor James L. Key. Mrs. Nor man Sharp, chairman of the markets committee of the Atlanta Woman's club, and B. A. Hancock, of the state bureau of markets, conferred with the mayor on the subject. It is contemplated to locate the market at the junction of Courtland and Gilmer strets, and to range the wagons and carts hauling in the produce down either side of those streets and in front of the auditori um. For the present only two days a week —Tuesdays and Saturdays— will be “market days.” The market will be open from 8 o’clock in the morning until 2 in the afternoon, and will be under the di rection of a committee of citizens, directly supervised by a special offi cer of the police force. There will be no charge assessed the farmers for selling their produce at the curb market. An extensive publicity . campaign will be waged, to encourage the farmers to bring their produce to market, and more than 500 women of the city are already pledged, to make their purchases there. The farmers are assured of good prices for their vegetables, and other prod ucts, and will be given special loca tions on the curb, which they will be entitled to retain throughout the summer. t Macon Woman Charged With Throwing Lye In Little Boy’s Face MACON, Ga., June 16.—Mrs. Felix C. Johnston, wife of Dr. F. C. Johnston, and a prominent Macon woman, was indicted by the Bibb grand jury Tuesday on a charge of : assault with intent to murder. It is alleged that she threw lye in the face of M. E. Outz, Jr., twelve year-old son of a neighbor, and that the boy was badly burned. She was enraged because her grandson had a fight with a boy who had been playing with the other children, it is charged.

Good Gram Crop In Sumter Countty AMERICUS, Ga., June 16. —Sumter county farmers are now harvesting what is perhaps the greatest grain crop ever produced in this county. It is estimated the yield of oats alone will be approximately 275,000 bush els, and every bushel of this grain is already practically saved. Weather conditions throughout the harvesting season have been most propitious, and already most of the grain has been threshed out and stored in barns. On fields where this grain was produced, thousands of hogs are al ready fattening, and after they have garnered the grain remaining there, other crops will be put in by the farmers. Large Melon Crop Forecast in Cook ADEL. Ga., June 16.—The water melon crop in Cook county bids fair to yield a large revenue this sea son. While the crop is a litle late and not as good as usual, still the increased acreage will mean at least twice the number of cars to be ship ped. A few growers in the county will be able to ship between June 25 and July 1, while the bulk of the crop will begin mov ing about July 10. The increased acreage in Cook county and in the immediate section of south Georgia will cause a large number of buyers to locate here. If women ceased to gossip their husbands would miss a iot of enter taining information about their neighbors.

Questions Answered 1. Question. What was the sugar beet crop in 1919? 1. Answer. The total production of sugar beets for the United States for the year 1919, as estimated by the bureau of crop estimates, was 6,421,478 tons. 2. Question. What does I. H. S. mean; it appears on grave stones, in churches et cetera? 2. Answer. The initials I. H. S. are the initial letters of the Latin phrase, “Jesus Homnium Salvator,” which means “Jesus, the Savior of Man.” This was originally written in Greek and was the first three let ters of the name Jesus, but its origin was lost sight of through substituting the S. for the Greek sigma. Then by mistaking the Greek H. (long e) for Latin H, a signi fication was found for each letter. 3. Question. In speaking of several persons is it wrong to say “those kind of people?” 3. Answer.
