Cables were lower, the weather map favorable and unsettled condi tions In the textile trade were emphasized by reports that cotton yarn spinners at Gas tonia, N. C„ were going on short time. The ipening was steady aot a decline of 4 points to an advance of 5 points, and there was some Liverpool buying of July and October at the start. Otherwise very little support was in evidence, however, and the market soon weakened under liquidation or re-sclling by buyers of yesterday. July broke to 37.25 c and October to 34.30 c, with active months showing net losses of 20 to 25 points before the end of the first hour. There were sharp rallies from the early break after the posting of the weather map which showed rainfall ranging up to about 3 inches in the southwest. Some local traders felt that moderate rains would be beneficial following recent dry weather, but there was evidently a fear that the precipitation had been too heavy in some sections or that the belt was in for another wet spell. At any rate July sold up from 87.25 to 37.58 and October from 34.30 to 34.85, with the general list ruling about 13 to 35 points net higher around miday. The early afternoon advance extended to 7.80 for July and 34.92 for October owing to reports of further rains in the central and western belt. This made a net advance of 15 to 38 points which met enough realiz ing to cauca rt actions of a few points.

Thomson, McKinnon & co. grain LtETTER ' CHICAGO, June 18. —Corn: It developed that the needs of the cash corn buyers who withdrew from yesterday’s market were not fully supplied, as they were competitive buyers today. The result was an advance in cash of about 4 cents above yesterday’s low. This condition has been the immediate motive in the deferred delivery. Transpor tation is and will be the most Important thing in the market. It is apparent that present facilities are inadequate. A good idea of future probabilities is to be gath ered from the request of the banking in terests that wheat be given a preferential order. Therefore, given existing premiums of 11 cents and over for contract grades an a poor outlet for any material improve ment in receipt# there shonid be Pruinn in market at all times. Oats: It has been intimated In some quarters that oats were heading short in certain sections and in extreme southwest premature ripening promised a yield of lightweight oats. These items together with continued strength in cash, account for the action of the new crop deliveries. Inas much as present weather is distinctly bene ficial for oats, all claims of damage should be taken with a grain of salt; however, we repeat our belief that the discount or Sep tember is not warranted by the size of the crop as estimated.

SHEPARD & GLUCK COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, June 18.—Although the rains in the belt overnight were regarded favorably on the whole, the early selling movement in the cotton market today which they caused did not last long and was succeeded by a fairly determined upward movement which was explained by the fear that the rains would continue, a fear that was strengthened by the forecast of more showery weather for the greater part of the belt. The market tomrorow will prob ably depend almost altogether on the char acter of the weather map. Atlanta Live Stock (Corrected by W. H. White, Jr., President of White Provision Company.)

Mr. Wilson would have accused the Republicans of in terfering with his treaty-making power had it attempted at the Chi cago convention to dictate a plan of dealing with the treaty.” ’ President Wilson, in his Interview said he was “extremely confident that the Democratic conventfbn at San Francisco will welcome the acceptance by the Republican party to make the League of Nations the issue fn tills campaign.” "I am even more confident,” the president said, “that such referen dum will confirm my faith that the American people desire it above anything else that a political party now may provide and that they will condemn the Republican policy of denying them the consummation of their hopes. No one will recommend a referendum on that issue more than I.” “I suppose I should feel flatter ed,” he said, “over being made the issue of the presidential campaign by the Republican party. But even the effort of the platform make s at Chicago to confer the distinct ion of being not only a burning but a living issue by camouflaging and obscuring the real issues will not* deceive the people. G. O. F. Methods Prussian “The processes by which the Chi cago platorm was accomplished seemed to me to have been essentially and scientifically Prussian in inspira tion and method. Instead of quoting Washington and Lincoln, the Repub lican platform should have quoted Bismarck and Bernhardi, because the Republican attitude regarding the supreme issue that cannot be aban doned or disregarded strongly sug gests the arbitray influences that dic tated the doctrines of those two emi nent persons. “Every charge directed against me and my administration is obviously designed to becloud and negative the paramount issue confronting the peo ple of America, to befog their sense of responsibility and make violation of the obligations they have assum ed to ibe of small consequence. I sincerely believe that the attempt of the Republican party to win the sanc tion of the American people for its attempted evasion of these obliga tions will be decisively rebuked. “With one thing I am fully satis fied—this is that the Republican par ts’- in its platform has joined me In the suggestion I made in my letter to the guests at the Jackson day dinner in Washington in January, last. In that letter I expressed the hope that a sincere attempt would be .made to determine the attitude of the Ameri- i can people on the League of Nations t by the resort to the genuine demo- > cratlc process of the referendum. “Os course, I have no way of an- ' tlcipating the probable trend of sen- i timent that will be expressed in the I Democratic national convention at; San Francisco or forecasting the ul- I timate conclusions of that body. ! But I have every confidence that; the delegates who will sit in that j convention will repeat the challenge i I issued to the Republican party and i express their readiness to permit, the people to decide between the j vague and ambiguous declaration by the Republicans and a positive and definite expression of opinion by the Democratic party. Whatever else the Democratic party may do, I hope that its convention at San Francisco will say just what it means on every issue an dthat it will not resort either to ambiguity Or evasion in doing so. The League is Issue “This thing (the League of Na- I tions) lies too doop to permit of any ' political sculduggery, any attempt I to sidestep or evade moral and hu- | manitarian responsibilities much ! too solemn to treat so lightly or ig- ; note. "I should prefer at this time not I to discuss partisan politics or > to venture any predictions as to probable attitude that the Democrat ic convention will take on any sub ject. I sincerely believe, however, that the tvast majority of gentle men who wil sit in the San Fran- ■ cisco convention will appreciate the > necessity and permanent Value of I keeping’the word that America has i given to the rest of the world. “The thinly veiled rejection t of the ' principle of the League of Nations by , the Chicago convention will not fool anyone. The attitude of Senator j Lodge and that of Senator Johnson ; differ only in degree. Both are ( really opposed to it in any form. One of these gentlemen is dissin-j genuous and evasive and the other I ' candidly hostile.” I "It must be a trifle disconcerting ■ to some Republicans,” he added, “to i have their party propose now to re-{ ' nudiate that which was approved a i few years ago by some of their i most important leaders. I am as J confident today as I was when T returned- from Paris finally in July last, people of not only America, but of the entire world are in favor of the League of Nations; that they would feel a greater sense of secur ity if it s benefits should be guar anteed; that they would not ap -1 prove, with their votes, of the pol ' icy of the Republican party which is ’ wholly political in intent and pur ’ pose, to deny them the protection ( that the League of Nations assures.” ; “The Republican congressional policy,” he added, “was more sig nificant for evasion of joint respon sibility in grappling with the prob lems that confront the country than for any moral appreciation of the responsibility itself. Republican leaders in congress cried aloud for the repeal of some of the measures which they well knew protected the people from more serious evils than they svould have the country know. "The Lever food control act has proved to be one of the most ef fective agencies in preventing dep redations at the expense of the people than almost any other meas sure now in operation. Time for re pealing it is not yet. Republicans to Blame “Republicans chorused a ponder ous note of protest against the ad ministration enforcement of the espionage act and some other meas ures that were of vital necessity dur ing the war. Yet, I defy the Re publicans to prove that the power given the government during the war has ever been unjustly used against the people; that a single citizen has been unwarrantedly punished for any act of aggression or disloyalty against the pation; that any man has been punished for expressing his opinion. I have read charges to the contrary, but in each instance I have had the matter thoroughly looked into and I am in a position to contest the accuracy of any state ment that the rights of a single cit izen has beeh unjustly invaded. “The United States senate has for eleven months had in its hands the power to end conditions that are un mistakably irksome to a great many of our citizens because sVith the rati fication of the peace treaty the op eration of laws that were enacted to safeguard the interests of the country in the war would automat ically cease. “As long as these laws are on the statute books they must be enforced. They have been and are being en forced with as little injury to the welfare of the country and rights of individuals as possible. I don’t know that I should even be called to de fend any policy that I have deemed essential to the fullest protection of the national interest. That would be too much like offering an apology where one is not needed. I do not believe that my course calls for an apology of any kind. “The Republican, and not the Dem ocratic policy, has been responsible for any bad effects that have re sulted from the failure of the Re publican senate to ratify the Ver sailles treaty and the covenant of the League 6f Nations. The Repub lican policy of negation has been persisted in for the sole purpose of advancing Republican chances for winning the coming presidential elec tion, and has never reflected a sin cere desire to ameliorate the effect of measures adopted for protecting the country in time of war. The Republican policy has been rather to exaggerate the effect of these measures." The president declined to discuss candidates for the Democratic presi dential nominations. “I have the greatest faith,” he said, “in the intelligent appreciation by the delegates who will assemble at San Francisco two weeks hence to write the platform and nominate the standard bearers of our party. They will have before them the Re publican platform and will have esti mated the effect of it on the people generally. They will have from whom to select candidates for the presidential and vice presidential nominations a number of excellent men. I should not want to express any preference or opinion regarding either individuals or platform ex press'ons which might influence the minds of the men whose votes will ultimately decide both. I*avors No Candidate “I hope and believe that platform to be adopted at San Francisco will be more progressive and clearer in understanding than that enunciated by the Republicans at. Chicago. The character of the men who will sit as delegates in the San Francisco con vention should be sufficient guaran tees that the issues upon which the campaign is to be fought will be met with definite and concrete state ments, not cloudy and » ambiguous j statements, as tvas the case in the ' Chicago convention.” j “I have not raised my hand or I voice,” the president continued, “to | aid in the promotion of any ambi- I lion for the Democratic presidential ■ nomination and I shall not do so. I i think that the leaders of the party I and delegates who will sit -in the i San Ftancisco convention will earn ! estly try to provide a platform and ! candidates that.will attract greater j support than those put forward by the Chicago convention. I am also I confident that the Democratic lead ers and delegates will hold the full est appreciation of their obligations to the party and to the people. It is unthinkable that any Democrats should for an instant be influenced by the selfish and sinister motives that lie back of the Republican plan to stultify and discredit the United States in the eyes of the world. “I do not believe that they will permit themselves to be led astray j ; in order to gratify the vanity or , i promote the uncharitable or selfish i impulses of any individual.” “The Republican convention,” he i ! added, “was the apotheosis of reac- ! i tion. It was the direct antithesis of I what I hope the Democrats at San | Francisco will turn out to be. . The i leaders who call themselves pro- j gressive and who pretend to speak ' for the progressive element in the Republican party sacrificed every principle that made attractive the ’ movement of eight years ago in or- j [ der to gratify the ambition of some j of the present-day leaders to pre vent the people of the United States from fulfilling their honest obliga- I tions to the rest of the world and !to themselves. The abandonment at. I Chicago of the progressive spirit ! was woefully tragic. I hope and be | lieve that the tragedy at Chicago ! will provide the Democratic party ; with an object lesson in this direc- I tion that will not be overlooked.” President Wilson also declined to | discuss in detail the subject of pro ; hibition, woman suffrage or the high ! cost of living. He expressed the j opinion that the party leaders will ' provide a platform sufficiently broad, progressive, liberal, just an.l thoroughly democratic to convince the people of the country of ,he complete honesty of the democratic purpose and of the difference be tween it and the Republican party. m o NEW QUESTIONS 1. —Who said to educate a woman and give a monkey a sharp knife is the same thing. 2.

Stone Mountain and Redan corre spondent for The Journal, decided that he could best serve the inter ests of his paper in the heat of Thursday morning by “covering” a street car to Atlanta. Here is the re"''-'- on his trip: "At 5:30 o’clock a. m., between Warren station and Kirkwood, a trol ley car was halted by a gigantic ob struction right in the middle of the tracks. “Upon investigation, Conductor T T Bryant and Motorman McW. El lis discovered an immense migratory iogger-head turtle which was dis posed to dispute the right of way. “The turtlefought viciously and finally they succeeded in getting it aboard the car. Here the logger head nsapped right, and left and re fused to lie subdued. Finally they had to put him off the car. Nothing further has been heard from the tur tle at this writing.

Lillian, twelve, how to de fend herself. There are tough char acters near 47 Marget street, where the Ellises live, and it seemed a wise precaution. One night recently Lillian used that training to good advantage. A man whom her father had be friended and tried to reform attack ed Lillian —opposite whom he had sat several times at dinner in the Ellis flat within a week or two— and injured her severely. She is in Volunteer hospital with nine serious scalp wounds and possibly a frac tured skull. The man, tvho almost strangled her, then broke first a mirror and then a vase upon her head, is being hunted by Ellis and his friends. Mr. and Mrs. Ellis went out and left Lillian in the flat to take care of three small sisters and brothers. About 10 o’clock the man came, wear ing a black suit the father had given him.

Why did soldiers in the world war lose more right arms and right legs than left ones? A. A logical theory is that when the troops were in actual combat, the men would be using rifles and \vould stand with the left foot and left arm advanced. A shell exploding in front of them would kill rather than maim. A shell falling and exploding behind would find the righ side of the body exposed to a greater de gree. Q. Will x-rays penetrate steel?

Among those specified were “all foreign fruit plants, etc., meaning plants for transplanting, propagation or experi ment* The enrolling clerk in copying the bill accidentally changed the hy phen to a comma, making it read “all foreign fruits, plants, etc.” conse quence, until congress could remedy the mistake, all oranges, lemons, bananu , grapes and other foreign fruits were admitted free of duty.
