COTTON |
NEW YORK, Oct. 4.—The cotton market
wu irregular during today’s early trading.
A good part of the business was atributed
to further evening up for over the govern
ment report and this included scattering
liquidation as well as covering of short con
tracts. The opening was steady at an ad
vance of 5 to 33 points, but there was mod
erate selling for Liverpool and southern ac
count which eased October off to 22.30 nd
January to 21.08 after the call, or back to
within a few points of Saturday’s closing.
Spot house brokers were buyers of December,
however, and prices held fairly steady to
ward the end of the first Hour. Liverpool
reported fair trade busing there today and
a better tone on the outlook for a settlement
of the coal mining dispute.
The census report showing 2,243,030
bales of cotton ginned to September 25 was
without any immediate effect on the mar
ket, but prices broke very sharply after the
publication of the government’s crop re
port. The condition of 59.1 was about in
line with the average of private reports,
but It seemed that recent buyers had an
ticipated a somewhat lower figure and
there was particularly active liquidation of
December, while the ending of uncertainty
as to the showing of the figures brought
in previously withheld selling orders, De
cember broke to 20.50 c, making a net de
cline of 75 points with January selling at
20.40 c, or 52 points net lower, and with
all active months entering new low ground
for the movement.
There was covering enough to check the
early afternoon decline, and caused rallies
of 15 or 20 points, after which trading be
came quiet, with the midafternoon market
showing little further change.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 4.—Better cables
than due caused a moderately higher mar
ket for cotton today, follwiug irregularity
around the opening. Soon after the first
call the near months were 4 to 10'points
down compared with last week’s close, but
♦he later months were unchanged to 5 points
ip. Selling presure did not persist, appar
ently because of uncertainly over the bu
reau reports, and toward the end. of the
first hour of business prices were 23 to 43
points over Saturday’s finals, December
■tending at 20.65.
Both the ginning report, showing 2,243,030
bales turned out to September 25. and the
condition of 59.1 per cent of normal on the
same date were construed as against val
ues, especially heavy selling following the
’indicated crop of 12,123,000 bales because
Os the fact that a year ago the indicated
crop was only 10.696,000. Late in the morn
ing December was trading at 19.65 and the
list showed net declines of 50 to 75 points.
At a level 50 to 75 points down net, the
demand fr..om realizing shorts increased
and in addition, a new demand for long
account sprang up, coming from traders
who thought the decline had gone far
enough and from people who were im
pressed by Liverpool cables claiming that
important business was pending in the Man
chester cloth market. Late in the day the
net declines were reduced to 19 to 24
points.

NATION-WIDE MEET
CALLED TO PROTEST
FARM CREDIT CUT
(Continued frcm rage 1)
through inability of producers to
market their products on account of
the absolute lack of governmental as
sistance, not to say governmental ef
fort to reduce prices on farm prod
ucts.
“The Houston policy of discour
aging exports and encouraging im
ports can only mean the artificial
depression of American farm prod
ucts and putting our farmers on a
basis of cheap foreign labor.
“In view of these conditions, we
feel it an imperative duty to meet at
this time, both to offer protest
against government efforts to begin
deflation with the farmer and to
take definite steps to see that our
products, at the period of, harvest,
are not depressed to a point where
we shall have to mortgage our homes
and borrow funds to enable us to
continue to meet the world demand
for food and clothing."
The Cotton Mass Meeting
The Georgia cotton mass meeting,
hfeld in the state capitol Thursday,
was for the purpose of expressing
disapproval of the announcement by
Secretary Houston, of the United
States treasury, that the federal re
serve banks should apply a general
curtailment to farm bredits; of urg
ing the growers of cotton and other
farm crops not to become stampeded
by the drop in prices and unload
their products upon a deflated mar
ket; third, of calling a nation-wide
meeting of protest In Washington.
Already some favorable results of
the meeting are apparent. Governor
Harding of the federal reserve hoard
in Washington gave the Associated
Press a statement on Friday that it
was not the purpose of the board to
curtail farm credits.
This statement bears out the pre
vious assurances given by Governor
Harding to the farmers. It does not,
however, commit Secretary Houston
to the same policy. Secretary Hous
ton’s pronouncements on the subject
of farm credits are the source of the
concern. What they want is a defi
nite statement from him making
clear his position.
A direct request for such a state
ment was sent to Secretary Houston
on Thursday night by Congressman
Upshaw, of the Fifth (Atlanta) dis
trict, who attended the cotton mass
meeting- and was a member of the
resolutions committee. He had pre
viously sent a telegram, on Wednes
day night, protesting against the
secretary’s announcement construed
as meaning that farm credits must
be curtailed. Secretary Houston
sent a reply, declaring that he had
been misunderstood; that he meant
to say the United States treasury
could not make deposits of money in
the banks in crop-moving sections.
The reply to this telegram, sent Fri
day niglit by Congressman Upshaw,
was as follows: ,
Beply to Telegram
“Your telegram received and con
tents carefully noted by myself and
cotton mass meeting held here
Thursday. Evidently your recent
published statement had no bearing
on our situation, but was miscon
strued with very damaging effect
upon the price of cotton. What our
farmers wish is definite information
as to whether farm credits are to
be curtailed by Federal Reserve
banks.
“They neither desire nor intend to
hold their cotton for speculative
purposes, but, on the other hand,
they refuse to sell on the present
market below cost of production un
less forced to sell. It would be
manifestly unjust to require them
to unload upon a deflated market
their principal money crop which
was produced upon inflated costs of
every item entering into its produc
tion. They have been informed by
Governor Wellborn that the well-es
tablished policy of extending credit
on paper secured by cotton ware
house receipts is not to be altered by
the Atlanta Federal Reserve bank.
“Contrary to this information
your recent statement was construed
as meaning that you would insist
upon a general curtailment of all
farm credits by the several eserve
banks. Your telegram in-Ur'a+es th"
you were discussing a different mat
ter entirely. It further indicates
that you are not insisting upon cur
tailment of farm credits. If the lat
ter be true, a publie statement by
you making clear your position,
would, in our judgment, to some ex
tent repair the damage done by the
general misapprehension arising out
of your previous statement."
I have discovered the secret of making
hens quickly start laying eggs so fpst,
winter or summer, that is simply won
derful ; secret gladly sent free, if you write
quick, inclosing self-addressed envelope.

etnody after remedy and doctor after
'nctor, but such relief as I received
vas only tem;wrary. Finally, I found
i treatment that cured me completely,
•nd it has never returned. I have given
t to a number who were terribly af
"licted and even bedridden with rheu
■>tism, some of them 70 to 80 years
Id, and results were the same as in
ny own case.
I vant every sufferer from such forms
>f rheumatic trouble to try this mar
vtlous healing power. Don’t send a
cent- simply mail your name and ad
dress and I will send it free to try.
After you have used it and it has proven
Itself to be that long-looked-for means
of getting rid of your rheumatism, you
may send the price of it, one dollar,
but understand, I do not want your
money unless you are perfectly satisfied
to send it. Isn’t that fair? Why suffer
any longer wlrnn relief is thus offered
you free. Don’t delay. Write today.

SEABOARD SAFE IN
ATHENS ROBBED;
$2,500 IS MISSING
ATHENS, Ga., Oct. 4.—Abdut $2,-
500 in currency is missing from the
safe at the Jicket office of /the Sea
board railroad here. R. S. Lockhart,
traveling auditor and special Investi
gator with headquarters in Atlanta,
is in the city searching for clues
that might lead to the apprehension
of th& burglars. The robbery oc
curred, according to the theory of
Mr. Compton, local agent, between
midnight Sunday and five o’clock
Monaay. Mr. Hayne, the ticket agent,
was on duty until 12:40 and after he
left no one was near the station, ex
cept in the passenger room, the
nignt watchman having been trans
ferred to another position about , one
month ago.
The robbers entered the station
through an office window and tied
a pair of overalls over the safe com
bination to muilie the sound, it ap
parently having been their object to
blow tne sate. Instead of doing that,
the combination was broken with
the aid of a sledge hammar and
then punciied through. Following
the rifling of the safe an overcoat
was thrown over it. The agent at a
station nearby stated that he heard
a lord car drive up to the seaboard
station about 3:30 o’clock Monday
morning ana saw several men
alight. They were carrying on an
animated conversation and the list
ener thought nothing of the event, i
Ticket Agent. Sullivan reported for
duty at five o’clock. He says that
when he enterd the office he ob
served the overcoat hanging over the
safe. He at first thought that some
one must have been sleeping on it,
but discovered by lifting it off that
the safe had ben robbed-.
The local police were notified and
conducted a serch until the arrival
of Special Investigator Lockhart, of
Atlanta. The amount of money in
the safe was unusually large, due
to sale of tickets Saturday and Sun
day for the Conefedrate ’ Veterans’
reunion. The entire matter has been
referred to the Atlanta office of the
Seaboard. Local belief is that the
act was committee by amateurs, but
there are indications tflat the job
was conducted by shrewd cracks
men. No arrests have been ..’,

APPENDICITIS
Appendicitis attacks at any moment,
even persons seemingly in good health.
Usually, however, it is preceded by stom
ach trouble or constipation. Many people
have a bowel movement every day, but
it is not a COMPLETE movement and
much old, stale matter stays in the sys
tem to ferment and cause trouble. Often
there is only a small passage in the cen
ter of the bowels while the sides are cov
ered with old, herd matter which sticks
to the- bowels and often poisons the sys
tem for months, making you feel tired all
the time and “half-sick.” Even if your
bowels move slightly each day, that is
Vot enough. There must be an occasional
THOROUGH, complete cleansing to bring
out all the accumulated, poisonous waste
matter.
Appendicitis is an -intestinal infection
spreading to the appendix, and it can be
guarded against in tlie same manner in
which you guard against the spread of
throat infection (sere ’throat). When you
have sore throat, you can often prevent
further trouble by using an antiseptic
wash or gargle to destroy Hie germs, and
a laxative to carry off the poisons from
the body. Very similar treatment is neces
sary to guard against appendicitis. But in
stead of an antiseptic wash for the throat,
an INTESTINAL antiseptic is necessary
and a COMPLETE drainage of the bowel
system.
INTESTINAL ANTISEPTIC
There is now offered to the public a
preparation having the DOUBLE action of
• «n intestinal antiseptic and a COMPLETE
system cleaner. This preparation, known
ias ADLER-I-KA, acts as follows:
It tends to destroy or remove harmful
germs and colon bacili in the intestinal
' vanal, thus guarding against appendicitis
I and other diseases having their start here.
It is the most COMPLETE system
! cleaner ever offered to the public, acting
Wholesale Jail
Delivery at Police
Barracks Frustrated
The timely discovery of a hole
dug into the wall at the police bar
racks Sunday night prevented what
might have been a wholesale jail de
livery and resulted in the placing of
several prisoners in separate cells to
await an investigation of the alleged
attempted escape.
It is said by the police that sev
eral bricks had been removefl and
it only needed a little more work on
the part of the prisoners to open the
way to freedom. The prisoners in
that section of the barracks were
all colored and the inmates are be
ing held on serious charges. The
attempted break was discovered by
a negro prisoner who reported it to
the turnkey.

the system for months and which noth

gases, thus immediately, relieving pres

It is astonishing the great amount of poi
sonous matter ADLER-I-KA draws from
the alimentary canal—matter you never
thought was in your system. Try it right
after a natural movement and notice how
much MORE foul matter is brought out
which was poisoning your system. In
slight disorders, such as occasional consti

and sick headaches, one spoonful ADLER-

is a constant surprise to people who have

on account of its rapid, pleasant and
