SEW YORK, Nov. 12.—This morning's
weather map fully realized yesterday’s' pre
dictions of cold weather in the cotton belt,
temperatures ranging from zt to .’>4 degrees
being reported in northern sections. They
failed to locate any buying power of con
sequence, i i never, the market L. tag influ
cn.-0.l ;>} weak Liverpool -a'des ar.u reiter
ated reports of easier spot markets. First
prices wi.ri! easy at a «'• ••-.inc of 20 to 47
points witl, January suing o’. t> 18.25.
r 77 points below tm liign price touched on
the rally' of yesterday afternoon. Liverpool
< :>i>ies rep. rre 1 hedge selling there, with
very litre buying power, and the failure of
freezing tempera*, a-es in the b -it t > stimu
late demand in' the local vrihet was evi
dently :i tlisappointmv'.u *o recent buyers.
Prices recovered 20 or 25 points of their
opening losses during the middle of the
morning on covering for over the week em.
Otherwise there was very little demand and
the market weakened again around mid
day owing to reports of an easier spot
basis in the southwest accompanied by seme
selling through brokers with snot house con
nections. January deliveries broke to 18.11,
or even with the low point of the wee.,
and active months generally sold 48 to 6i
points net higher.
During the second half of the session sell
ing was, if anything, heavier than ever,
being encouraged by a private crop estimate
of 13.080,060 bales, not counting linters,
and the report that the eastern belt was
offering cotton on a able basis. Mill
takings were even smaller than expected,
238.000 bales for the week, against 415.000
this week hrst year and 320.000 this week
two years aco. In the trading up to 1:30
o’clock prices were sent to levels 68 to 70
points under the finals of yesterday, De
cember . falling to 17.63.
Selling became more active early in the
afternoon on continued bearish spot advices
and the unsettled ruling of the stock mar
ket. d’rices made new low ground for the
week with January selling at 17.95, or 60
points net lower. A private crop estimate of
13.000.000 bales, excluding linters, encourag
ed the selling movement, which included a
good deal of pressure from Wall street
sources.

[ ■”i iii'.ivl to' meet the demand, we feel that
:if exit 'moly bad weather overtakes the
I cron th market cannot advance materially.

Mum’s. Rogers ,t Stackpole: Aside from
I the to hnkal s rength. we see little nt pres-

J. S. I’ai-he <t Co.: We tliinn it is n scalp

While Harding Fishes for
Tarpon in Gulf, People in
ll \ashington Fish for Jobs
Friends of Frank A. Munsey
i Boom Him for Secretary
of Commerce ls League
Opponent i
BY DAVID LAWBEHCE
(Leased Wire Service to Tiie Journal.)
(Copyright, 1920.)
WASHINGTON. Nov. 11.—Presi
dent-elect Harding may be fishing
for tarpon, but he probably has no
idea of the number of people here
abouts who are fishing for jobs.
All the hooks known to politics are
in use. The persons who have the
real pull with Harding are in de
mand. Plans are being made by Re
publican leaders everywhere to
bring to the attention of Senator
Harding the names of those who
want cabinet portofolios. Some of
this urging is merely perfunctory—
the natural way of paying a political
obligation incurred by leaders to
men of influence during the cam
paign.
Many of the men who present
names will not be themselves disap
pointed if Senator Harding politely
turns them down.
But aside from those who are
really seeking cabinet portfolios,
there are certain men who are being
sought—not necessarily by Senator
Harding, but by others close to him.
Munsey Discussed
One of the men xvho is being dis
cussed in the so-called Harding cir
cle of friends nowadays is Frank A.
Munsey, of New York, who is being
talked of for secretary of commerce.
Air. Munsey owns the New York Sun
and Herald and Baltimore News and
has been a staunch opponent of the
League of Nations from the very be
ginning. The Harding administra
tion will feel kindly toward editors
and publishers anyway, but the in
timacy between Mr. Munsey and Mr.
Harding is not merely that of fel
low-editors. It is a fact that Mr.
Munsey has been one of the powers
behind the throne throughout the
campaign.
He frequently has been in com
munication with Mr. Harding and
one interesting story given the
writer is that at a time when
the anti-league faction in the
Republican party were most appre
hensive about the effect upon Mr.
Harding of the advice rendered by
Elihu Root, a message was sent to
Mr. Munsey by Senator Harding re
assuring him about the league issue.
The message left no doubt how Sen
ator Harding stood on the subject of
Mr. Root
Differs With Root
To the outside world it may be a
surprise that Senator Harding and
former Senator Root are not going
to be as close as the public sup
posed. There isn’t anything per
sonal in it at all—simply a diver
gence of view and difference of opin
ion.
For instance Senator Harding be
lieves in exempting American ships
from the payment of Panama canal
tolls, a matter covered by treaty with
Great Britain. Elihu Root insisted
on standing with President Wilson
on that issue and would hardly be
able to reverse himself without con
siderable embarrassment as an in
ternational lawyer. Moreover, Mr.
Root favors American entrance into
the leagu? with iiroper reservations.
Senator Harding eventually may
come to the same position, but for
the present he is deposed to try out
the Knox policy of keeping America
completely detached from any world
organization except one that gives
the United States an absolutely free
hand and without any obligation,
physical or moral.
Carolina Banker,
Located Here, Will
Go Back Home
Thomas B. McLaurin, the miss
ing banker of Bennettsville, S. C.,
found in Atlanta Wednesday after
noon after a search of several days
extending into a number of south
ern cities, was taken Wednesday
evening to Brawner’s sanitarium,
near Smyrna. for ;> b-ief res;
before returning to his home. A
relative of McLaurin acc >m
panied him to the sanitarium.
Tiie banker said he intended to
start for home some time Thursday.
Mr. McLaurin, who seems to have
been in Atlanta several days, sent
a telegram front the Terminal sta
tion Monday to his wife, saying ev
erything was “all right,” and tell
ing her not to worry. It was at the
Terminal station he was found Wed
nesday afternoon by Officers Evans,
Anderson and Swinney.
The banker informed the officers
that he was in Atlanta on business,
and that he could not understand
why his departure from home had
caused so much excitement. With
regard to the alleged discovery of
parts of his clothing at Blewett’s
Falls, N. C., with a note intimating
suicide, Mr. McLaurin said he knew
nothing at all about that feature
of his “disappearance.”
Wrangel Optimistic
Despite His Defeat
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN
(Special Cable to the Chicago Daily News
Foreign Service, ly Leased Wire to
The Atlanta Journal.)
(Copyright. 1920.)
CONSTANTINOPLE, Turkey. Nov.
11. —In spite of his reverses General
Wrangel is reported to be optimis
tic as to the final outcome of the
campaign against the Bolsheviki. He
claims that the withdrawal from
Taurida was long foreseen and was
carried out with the loss of not
more than 3,500 men in casualties
and prisoners and of three armored
trains and five airplanes.
The lull on the front is explain
ed by the fapt that the Bolsheviki
are waiting for colder weather which
will cause the rivers and marshes tc
freeze over. They are also waiting
for heavy artillery. In the mean
while they are concentrating along
the Melitopol-Gomowka line.

NEW YORK, Nov. 11. —Complete
regeneration of Greenwich village,
the Latin quarter of New York, until
it wil, become unattractive to sight
seers and “morbid minded persons
with a jaded appetite for sensation,”
was predicted in the annual report of
Police Commissioner Enright to
Mayor Hylan. made public today. The
report enumerated great improve
ments in the moral tone of that sec
tion within theypast two years, and
said it would soon ne “restored ‘to
its previous status of a respectable
residential and business neighbor
hood.”
The department during 1919. ac
cording to the report, made 31,162
arrests for general criminality, as
compared to 21,433 arrests during
1917. the year w>r was declared.
“Gold Tooth Baby”
Loses Prize Molar
Eva Catherine Lee. of 117 Ocmul
gee avenue Atlanta’s famous “gold
tooth baby.” has lost her gold tooth.
Or rather, the gold on the tooth is
said to have disappeared, though it
is still slightly tinged with yellow.
“There is something mysterious
about the way the gold went away,
as mysterious as the way it came,”
Mrs. Lee. her mother, is quoted as
saying. “One morning we noticed a
white spot on the gold: then the gold
kept fading until it was gone. I
wish I had known the gold was go
ing to •’ear off. I would have had
the tooth pulled out and we would
I have kept it.”
BOmiNS CASE GOES

Following the receipt in Atlanta
i Wednesday evening of the text of
I Judge H. M. Morris’ decision, hold
ing that the “good will as to the
bottling business is perpetual d
exclusive” in the hands of - the par
ent bottlers, counsel for the Coca
| Cola company, of Delaware, Thurs
day morning definitely decided to
appeal the litigation to the United
States circuit court of appeals.
This action will be taken within
thirty days from the rendering of
Judge Morris’ opinion, and the ca/e
will in turn, be argued at Philadel
phia, where the circuit court for the
third judicial circuit sits.
Counsel for the Coca-Cola com
pany withheld comment as to the
opinion of Judge Morris, which is
adverse to their client and fax
able to the parent bottlers, and
were content with their announced
determination to take an appeal.
Attending the conference of Coca-

of Savannah: Clifford L. Anderson,
’Robert C. Alston, William S. Thom
son and Harold Hirsch. The confer
ence was held in the offices of Can
dler, Thomson & Hirsch, in the Can

“HOME BREWERS”
ARE DEALT
BY NEW RULING
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.—(8y the
Associated Press.) —Home brewing
was brought actively under the pro
hibition ban, today when it xvas
learned that enforcement, officials
had ruled against the sale of hops
and malt to others than bakers and
confectioners. Great secrecy sur
rounded the prohibition bureau’s ac
tion. but it was ascertained defi
nitely that such instructions had
been issued.
Details of the order were lacking.
The only admission made by pro
hibition officials in the absence of
Commissioner Kramer was that the
Volste'ad act had been construed to
mean, that the sale of hops and malt
as component parts of home-made
beer were without the pale of the
law and their sale must stop. En
forcement officials throughout the
country have been notified of the
government’s determination, but
they have not been supplied with
the technical language of the de
cision.
It Is Up to Houston
The construction of the law which
resulted in the new order was made
nearly two monhs ago. At that
t’me officials having it in charge
started a document through the reg
ular procedure from which It
emerges as a treasury decision. But
it has not yet been approved by Sec
retary Houston. Further than to
admit existence of the proposed
treasury ruling, officials declined
to discuss it.
Emphatic denial was made to the
report that the bureau had consid
■ ered or had included in the order
I other articles usd in home brew
ing. .Officials likewise denied that
provision was to be made for the
licensing of even the bakers and
confectioners, apparently the only
persons who will be able to pur
chase hops and malt.
There were persistent rumors at
botli the prohibition and inter
nal revenue headquarters that
. scores of complaints nad come from
the manufacturers of cereal bever-
I ages, containing less than one-half
| of one per cent of alcohol, against
' the tremendous growth of brewing
l as a home industry. On this phase
of the situation, officials also re
fused comment. It was understood,
however, that the beverage manu
facturers had based a complaint on
a steady but rapid decrease in their
sales.

day of the settlement between Italy
and Jugo-Slavia in the Adriatic and
Fiume controversy by Giuseppe
Brambilla, counsellor and charge of
the Italian embassy here.
Hoxv the United States will look
upon the Adriatic settlement was
awaited here with interest. Presi
dent Wilson constantly opposed Italy
and the other great powers In his
efforts to bring about a settlement
in the Adriatic in line with his prin
ciples
M. Brambilla said, after his con
ference with Mr. Colby, that the
secretary of state had seemed sat
isfied with the Adriatic settlement,
since it was agreeable to both coun
tries. President Wilson in his last
note said that a settlement mutually
satisfactory to Italy and Jugo-Sla
via would be agreeable to the Unit
ed States.
The Italian embassj’ received of
ficial confirmation and details of
the settlement today from Count

Plunges Into River
POUGHKEEPSIE. —When Howard
B Schofield, of Beacon, started his
big touring car on the ferryboat to
Highland the car plunged through
the gates into the river. The self
starter had not been working well,
so Mr. Schofield cranked the engine.
The gears were meshed and as the
car plunged it carried him over
board with it.
In the car were two x’aluable dogs,
and guns worth $250. The dogs
were not saved and the car and its
other contents are at the bottom
of the Hudson.
When Mr. Schofield was carried
overboard, the car shot straight
down and he disappeared. It was
s’everal seconds before passengers
saw him reappear on the surfare. As
he wore heavy hip boots and two
overcoats, it was almost impossible
for him to swim. He came up near
the edge of the fMV*y slip, however,
as the boat was nearing the landing,
and grasped a timber. Dock hands
pulled him uP. The water was very
deen where the car sank.
Mr. Schofield is connected with
the Mechanics Saving Bank in Bea

Republicans of Tennessee,
HaT>ingßroken‘ SolidSouthi :
HaveGonePatronageCrazy
Hie Atlanta Journal News Bureau.
623 Riggs Building.
BY THEODORE TIDIER
WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.—Across
the Georgia line and in the neigh
boring state of Tennessee, a great
army is reported to be forming. It’s
an army of Republicans who voted
for Senator Harding and caused Ten
nessee to break the ‘‘solid south,”
and now will demand the best seats
at the federal patronage table.
A Tennessee politician here today
observed that it appeared nearly ev
erybody who voted for Senator Har
ding in that state expected to be
come either a cabinet member, bu
reau chief, postofflee inspector,
United States judge or marshal, or
something else on the federal pay
roll.
It was suggested that Senator
Harding when he becomes president
might run the whole government with
the patronage volunteers from the
Volunteer State. Tennessee not only
has gone Republican, she's gone pa
tronage crazy, said this politician.
The boys from other states stand
amazed at Tennessee’s willingness to
grab everything in sight. There’ll
be no room for anybody else under
the plumtree asking for anything.
Already enough patronage has been
distributed —on paper, of course—in
Tennessee, to fill every office of pow
er and emolument at the disposal of
the new president.
Planter and Fisherman
Before he disposes of all the clam
orous demands of the Tennessee Re
publicans, President Harding prob
ably will be reminded of a story he
heard in the senate as told by Sena
tor John Sharp Williams, of Missis
sippi. Senator Williams told the sen
ate there was once a cotton planter
who was rescued from the sluggish
waters of a Louisiana bayou by a
French fisherman. He suitably re
warded the fisherman at the time. A
year later, the planter met the old
fisherman in New Orleans, and the
latter reminded the former that he
had saved his life. The planter, still
expressing his gratitude, purchased
the fisherman a suit of clothes. Two
years later the two met accidental
ly in Shreveport. Once more the fish
erman recited how he had pulled the
planter out of the bayou, and made
even more thrilling the story of the
rescue. The planter bought his ben
efactor an overcoat. Finally the res
cued and rescuer came together again
in a New Orleans saloon. The fisher
man began the old story of the bayou
and his. fortunate presence there as
the planter fell in.
“I hope you do not question my
gratitude,” rejoined the planter, “and
just to show you once more I am
mindful of your service, I ask you to
accept tliis gold coin; but let me add
before we part, that if ever again
I should fall into a bayou and you
are anywhere around, for the Lord’s
sake, do not pull me out.”
After Tennessee has finished with
her demands for patronage, it is
possible that President Harding will
privately express the wish that “If
I ever run again, for Heaven’s sake,
let Tennessee stay Democratic.”
Bandits Stage Holdup
Os New York Tram
In Wild West Style
BUFFALO, N. Y.—All the settings
of a movie thriller were present in
the hold-up of a New Y’ork Central
train at Walmore, near here. Masks,
automatic pistols and bandits bold
played leading roles, together with
the armed posse and the thrilling
chase in a locomotive after the ban
dits.
1 .:■? train held up was a freight
train on the Lockport branch. Near
Walmore the train suddenly stopped
when the air hose was disconnected.
Dropping off the caboose to go for
ward to see what was the matter,
Conductor Frederick Broxvnell faced
six masked men, automatic pistols
in hand, who ordered him to go for
ward.
About two car lengths away the
procession met the engineer, who
was ordered to about face and join
in the parade This he did, the rest
of the train crew being picked up
along the way. When the engine
was reached one of the trainmen was
forced to uncouple it, and then all
were herded into the cab at the
command of the bandit leader.
“Now just run up the line a few
miles and keep quiet.”
The engineer sped away but did
not stop after a few milse, going on
to the nearest station, where an
armed posse was hastily collected.
The engine again started for the
scene of the hold-up.
Arrivin'”’ there, nothing was to be
found of the bandits. Automobile
tracks led to the door of an opened
freight car. Silks, shoes and other
merchandise to the value of $10,009
had bG'”n se’ected by the robbers at
their leisure. Railroad detectives,
rushed to t'se scene after the hold
up had been reported, conventionally
confessed themselves bafflled.
Father Accidentally
Backs Car Over Only
Child and Kills Him
DUBLIN, Ga., Nov. 11.—Little
Samuel Montford, three-year-old son
of Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Montford, died
here this morning from injuries re
ceived when his father’s automobile
passed over his body.
Mr. Montford was backing his au
tomobile, a heavy touring car, out
of his garage at home, and Samuel
was on the running board. Just
about the time the car stated mov
ing, Samuel jumped off and ran be
hind the car where his father could
not see, and before he knew it,
Mr. Montford had run the car over
his own boy.
Medical attention was secured im
mediately but the boy was past help
and died in about thirty minutes. He
was the only child of his parents,
and both are frantic with grief, espe
cially his father.
Makes His Own Money
As Official at Mint
DENVER, Col. —Tom Annear, chief
of the U. S. mint here, tendered a
brand-new quarter in exchange for
a wedge of pie at a case. “Hold on
Mister,” protested the waitress sus
piciously, “This don’t look good to
me. It’s bent.” “Oh, it’s all right,”
reassured Annear, “I made it my
self.” He tried to give her another
coin, but she said he might have
made that one, too, and would have
called the cops if a mutual acquaint
ance hadn’t identified Uncle Sam’s
money maker.
Loses Battle to

MONTGOMERY. Ala.—William H.
Cutcliffe, convicted of assault witli

attracted great attention in Alabama
several months ago, must go to the
penitentiary for an indeterminate
term of from ten to twenty years
under a decision of the court of ap
peals. Cutcliffe’s case hud previously
been affirmed and the court this tim<-
denied his application for rehearing.
His only hope now is to obtain an
other hearing in the stmreme court.
Another Break in
Raw Sugar Prices
NEW YORK, Nov. 11.—There was
another break of'l-4c a pound in the
price of raw sugar today with Cubas
selling at 6 cents, cost and freight,
a new low record for the season. The
decline came under continued pres
sure from producing countries and
the poor demand for refined sugar.
At today’s level, prices represent
an almost perpendicular decline of
17 1-2 cents from last May
ENGLAND PASSES
HOME RULE BILL
FOR IRELAND
LONDON. Nov. 12. —The Irish
home rule bill passed the house of
commons on its third reading last
night after a motion for rejection
of the measure proposed by William
C. Adamson, the opposition leader,
had been defeated by 183 to 52.
The measure passed without any
noteworthy incident in a rather
tame debate. The liberal and LAjr
members who have boycotted it
through most of its stages as a
sign of their conviction of its hope
lessness as a settlement of the Irish
problem were again absent today.
The final stage was reached in a
small and rather listless gathering
of members of the house.
Former Premier Asquith appealed
for advantage to be taken of the
associations and emotions aroused
by the anniversary of Armistice
day, which could not be put to
worthier use than an endeavor to
find a basis of real settlement for
Ireland.
Premier Lloyd George, replying,
contended that the present bill was
a generous measure, but the Irish
people were not in a temper to
give it proper understanding and
consideration. He declared that
documents to be published at an
early date, found in the possession
of Sinn Fein leaders in 1918. prov
ing they were involved in a Ger
man plot, would show the necessity
of England retaining complete con
trol of Irish harbors.
No Army, No Navy
To give Ireland the power to raise
a conscript army, he said, would be
a dangerous menace to Great Brit
ain, and he warned the laborites
that with an army of that kind m
Ireland, under full powers of do
minion home rule, conscription in
England would become inevitable.
The premier contended that it was
equally impossible to allow Ireland
he own navy, which was quite
needless for her national life, and
coiild only be for the peril of Great
Britain and her own destruction. He
argued that it was fruitless to talk
of granting fiscal autonomy io peo
ple still demanding a republic.
