Liverpool was considerably lower than due, but the opening here was steady at an ad vance of 5 points on October and 1 to 22 points lower on other months. Only five December notices were reported, but De cember was relatively easy at the start, and the relativelv firm opening as compared with Liverpool led to scattered selling of later months. January eased off to 16.30 c and March to 16.22 c in consequence, with the general list ruling about 15 to 24 points net lower during the early trading.

Jay & Co.: We anticipate rapid price movements in either direction around the present level and expect tiie trend to depend upon the attitude of southern hold ers. Moyse & Holmes: Such upturns as oc curred in today’s market should be taken advantage of for the sale of contracts. N. L. Carpenter & Co.: There may not be any sudden rally in all prices, but it seems certain at least that the decline has seen its end. J. S. Bache & Co.: We have no very pos itive opinion at present but believe the chances favor some improvement. S. M. Weld & Co.: There is no apparent change in the general situation and we be lieve prices will go lower. Hubbard Bros. & Co.: The question ot the future value of cotton between now and the new year continues to be one of when will the spinner buy. This in turn is di rectly dependent on the retail trade and until retail prices are cut sufficiently to induce tiie public into the market for retail goods we do not believe we will have a sus tained advance.

' England and France Oppose Return of s King Constantine PARTS, Nov. 24.—Premier Ley gues, when he appeared tonight in the chamber of deputies in the Vati can debate, announced the govern ment’s intention to issue a warning to Greece against the return of for mer King Constantine. The debate was not finished, and was adjourned until Thursday, and it is understood that the premier will not go to Lon don until a settlement Is reached respecting France’s representation at the Vatican. M. Leygues, in asking’ for a post ponement of further interpellations so that he might be free to act, said; “France does not wish to inter vene in Greece’s foreign affairs, but, after a war which imperilled civili zation, if a power puts at its head a sovereign who showed marked and constant hostility toxyard the allies and had been the accomplice of our enemies, that power ought to be warned that she can no longer have our co-operation nor expect the same feeling from us as formerly. “Further than that, the treaties give us the right as a protecting power to proffer well founded ad vice upon the gravity of an • act which might give Germany occasion to intervene directly or indirectly in Oriental affairs. The premier said he wished to consider a definite course in the matter in complete accord with Great Britain. Britain Threatens Greece Great Britain has already taken steps to inform former King Con stantine of Greece and George Phallis, the new Greek premier, that she is absolutely apposed to the return of Constantine to the Greek throne, says the Petit-Parisien. She has notified them clearly that if the Greek government does not take cog nizance of her stand, Greece cannot hope to retain the territorial advant ages given her in the treaty between the allies and Turkey, the newspaper asserts. Living Costs Drive Forty Folks lo Tropical Isle LONDON.—A party of forty en thusiastic adventurers, headed by F. F. Rhodes Disher, Fellow of the Royal Geographical society, have de cided to spend the rest of their lives on a tropical island, away from ex cessive taxation. They will leave for the South Seas next month in a schooner yacht the Medora. “More than 1,000 persons have asked to come with us,” said Mr. | Disher. “Our first party includes doctors, solicitors, planters, ex-offi cers, surveyors, engineers, a wire less operator and a clergyman. Sev eral of the party are taking their wives and families with them. 7 “Until we have obtained an island or a portion of one and fitted it up temporarily, we shall live on our vessel.

Then came a visit to the Brooklyn navy yard, and a peep at the new battleship Tennes see, luncheon at the Biltmore hotel as the guests of the New York Mer chants’ association, a reception at the Engineering Society building and the annual banquet of the Geor gia society of New York were to fill out the day’s engagements. As a result so the thoughtfulness of the Fourth National bank, of At lanta, the Tech party partook of the courtesies of the tower as guests of the Irving National bank, of New York, which has its offices in the tower. Governor Dor sex’ received a telegram Saturday from Charles I. Ryan, vice president of the Fourth National bank, invit ing the entire Georgia party to in spect the tallest building in the world, and the tourists expressed their pleasure at the compliment. Leaving at midnight for Washing ton the Georgians will spend half a day and return home in time for the Thanksgiving game between Tech and Auburn. Vision of Tech Tomorrow The objective of this tour was reached Monday when the Georgians arrived at the Massachusetts Insti tute of Technology, for it was to see this great school and to inspect its wonderful plant that the tour was planned and carried out. The reason is easy to comprehend. Geor gia Tech was established after a visit to this wonderful school by men of vision many years ago. That the business men of the state might visualize the possibilities of Georgia Tech, that they might appreciate its value to the industrial development of the -state, that they might see hoxv this institution is a vital neces sity to their own prosperity, Dr. Matheson brought 127 leaders to the city of Cambridge, a city with an educational investment of $100,000,- 000. That Dr. Matheson had a real vision and a real inspiration when he organized the tour was demon strated at the Massachuetts Institute of Technology on Monday, when xvith enthusiastic unanimity the members of the tour pledged their whole hearted assistance to Georgia Tech in an educational campaign that is destined to bring about an industrial revolution in the empire state. Geor gians have seen xvhat technical schools have done for the develop ment of the north and east, and they will never be content until they have converted the people of Georgia in a great industrial revival. Committee Named It was unanimously voted Monday to perfect an organization that would crystallize the results of this tour and utilize them for a greater Tech and a greater industrial Georgia. A com mittee of twenty-five representative members of the tour from every sec tion of the state was named and it will be this committee’s duty to realize the hopes that have been justly aroused by this remarkable trip. Members of the committee are: Governor Hugh M. Dorsey, ex-officio; B. Mifflin Hood, Atlanta; Benjamin L. Bugg’, Atlanta; Hugh Richardson, Atlanta; J. M. Smith, Augusta; S. T. Wright, Waycross; J. B. Abrams, Brunswick; Porter Pierpont, Savan nah; Joseph W. Gith, Reidsville; J. A. Mandeville, Carrollton; J. B. Key, Columbus; Harrison Hightower, Thomaston; Horace Lanier, West Point; W. J. Vereen, Moultrie; W. L. Robuck, Cordele; J. W. Parker, Pel ham; Homer Williams, Thomasville; Guy Northcutt, Marietta; George W. Hamilton, Dalton; W. W. Mund.y, Ce dartown; Rev. H. F. Saumenig, Rome; Victor Allen, Buford; B. C. Teasley, Hartwell; R. W. Parker, Madison; W. E. Dunwoody, Jr., Ma con; Redding Simms. Washington; Frank Lawson, Dublin; Frank A. Bowden, Thomson. That Georgia is already awake; that it is ready for the gospel of in dustrial salvation, was made evident by the announcement that already over fifty organizations in various parts of' the state have requested speakers from among the men on this tor’- to tell what they have seen and how Georgia can profit by the. knowledge gathered. Wickes Wam bolt, who is directing the greatei’ Tech campaign and who worked out the details of this trip with consum mate skill, had no trouble In ar ranging for the speakers. In fact, it became evident that nearly every one of the 127 business men were ready to talk for Tech. Men who have not been accustomed to public speaking have been so stirred over what thev have seen that they al ready feel the oratorical impulse. Georgians are hereby put on notice that an industrial revival is about to be held in every city and hamlet of the state, and they might as well prepare to hear the gospel. Mr. Wambolt called for testimony at the luncheon at Massachusetts Tech Monday and the industrial sin ners flocked to the mourners’ bench. They had been converted to the cause of technical education and they an nounced themselves ready to go out and tell the world about it. Before Christmas every Rotary club, every Kiwaiiis club, every Civitan club and every board of trade and other busi ness organization in Georgia xvill have heard the message of industrial salvation. It is a message of optim ism, of business opportunity, of in dustrial prosperity. It is. a call to Georgians to claim the riches that nature has throxxm in their path and to put Georgia on the map as a great manufacturing state. Governor Coolidge Strikes Keynote The meeting at Massachusetts Tech was the climax of the tour so far as its real purpose and signifi cance are concerned. The day was too cold and raw and wet, and noth ing but a great idea could have stirred the enthusiasm of the visi tors. But the cordial welcome of the officials of the Massachusetts Tech and of Governor Coolidge, the vice president-elect, warmed up the Geor gians and prepared them for Dr. Matheson’s message. It was a mat ter of special rejoicing that Dr. Matheson could be present and ex plain to the members of the party his hopes in connection xvith the trip, and the response that was made was a tribute to the able president of Tech as to his plans for a greatei Tech. Vice President-elect Coolidge was particularly happy in his re marks. He declared that the visit of the Georgians showed how the na tion must act and develop as a unit. “You come here to learn of indus try,” he said, “and we should send our citizens to your state to learn of agriculture. Massachusetts has the intelligence, skill, and training to take raxv material from Georgia and from other states of the nation and convert this raw material into manufactured p’oducts. The Mass.- cliusetts Institute of Technology ami Harvard university are representa tive of many othe» institutions ot Massachusetts and they constitute one of the firm foundations of this state and of the nation’s prosperity We rejoice that you are developing FRIENDSHIP ENDS IN SHOOTING OF TWO WOMEN FULTON, Mo.—“ They were good friends; too good, in fact.” This strange explanation of the strangest tragedy that has horrified Missouri in many years, might well be the epitaph above the graves in xvhich two women, slayer and slain, were buried here. It was given by the mother of one of them; and it is the only answer, apparently, to the bewildering ques tion; “Why—why—WHY’—did Car olyn Weant, pretty stenographer, kill her dearest chum, Mrs. Ada Mc- Gowan, and then turn her weapon upon herself?” - Only Answer Jury Has Furnished ■ It is the ansxver in xvhich the cor oner’s jury, after searching vainly for any of the usual murder motives, has had to fall back. One of those intense, abnormal, consuming, un natural friendships that occasionally grow up between women had flamed into an insane passion of jealosy, and the girl who could not bear to share her friend with anyone in life, had taken her with her in death. Carolyn was 29 years old. Ada McGowan was 44, and the wife of Mason McGowan, keener of a pool hall in Fulton. The two women had been friends for ten years. About a year ago, Carolyn went to live at the McGowan home. Soon she and Mrs. McGowan became roommates, while the husband took a room downstairs. They were together every waking hour when their work permitted. They drove together in McGoxvan’s car. If one went shopping with an other woman, there was a quarrel. Then H>ere xvas a reconciliation, and the relation grew still stronger and more morbid. Mrs. McGoxvan’s family grexv un easy, according to her mother, Mrs. Mattie Acison, who lived with them. Couldn’t Moderate Friendship or Quarrels! They tried to stop the quarrels, but in vain. They tried to moderate the violence of the friendship, but with even less success. Finally they told Carolyn she had better find another boarding place. She agreed and packed her belongings. The last night that the two friends spent together was one long quarrel. In the morning there was vilence as they dressed together for the last time. Then there was a shot. Then a scream. Then another shot and an other; and then a heavy fall. When the sheriff opened the locked door, the two women xvere dead. At Carolyn’s feet was her revolver. Ada was crumpled in the corner of a closet, as if trying to escape her fate. In Carolyn’s box they found a let ter, written two or three days be fore. “I am doing this act because of trouble I have had with Ada,” it read, “as there is nothing else to live for after confiding in her and trusting her as the dearest friend next to God himself.” Thei’e Was No “Man in the Case” Unable to understand, at first, the incredible situation, the police looked for the supposedly inevitable “man in the case.” There was none. “No man was involved,” said Mrs. Acison. “Miss Weant had few men callers and none of them came reg ularly. She was simply jealous of my daughter’s attentions to other women. She did not want my daugh ter to have any other friend but herself.” Coon Is Very Crafty In Getting Chickens BY JOHN EHECK THIS is about chapter four of a continued story, entitled “Bert’s Vendetta With the Wily Coon.” It opened with these words. “I don’t mind him tasting a bit of corn, to fatten him, like, but when it comes to chickens —those springers I didn’t get into the coop yet—why, he picks ’em right off the limlb in that old soft maple where they're perching. I’ll bet he’s got feathers enough to stuff a pillow strewed around back of those sumachs down by the bridge. That’s how I came to get on to him.” Last night matters had reached the point where he was saying, “Those dratted chickens where they’re perching now it’d take that coon to reach ’em. ‘Long about dusk I’m going to jounce ’em doxvn and drive ’em in. Far as he goes, I'm not a-going to run my feet off after that feller. First cold snap that comes along he’ll be right where I can lay my hand on him.” He meant it, too. His feet are still on and I’ll bet he knows it. You see, he took his gun along when he went to the coop because, “T’was dark as a pocket—just the kind of a night for that old coon to run in.” Now that he really expected to do any hunting. He “jounced” his chickens doxvn and got all but two of them driven in when the old hound set up his yelping. Just out of curiosity, of course. Bert went to see what he was running. He xvent something better than two miles, at a right ■smart speed, on a dark night, over very rough going, and he got a real nice skunk skin. He felt like sitting down awhile by the time he got home. Anyway, those two chickens that were left out didn’t amount to much —no need to trou ble about them. He forgot he’d left the chicken coop door standing open. Bert was right. It was just the kind of a night for that coon to be rambling, somewhat later in the evening. He went into the coop and came out again, without think ing to close the door after him either. He took a nice white pul let, but he didn’t eat it behind the sumachs. The hound found some of it under a thorn bush this morn ing. “Just you wait,” says Bert. “As soon as it’s froze up good and hard I’ll get him. I knoxv just about where he hangs out and he’s got to come down and get one more good drink before he settles down to stiddy sleeping.” I’m not betting either way. Bert knows a heap more than I do about coons, but this coon seems to know his man. It’s going to be a battle of xvits between them. Yet I hax’e a suspicion that this account will stand on Bert’s books xvhen he starts the new year, still open. James A.

THURSDzIY, NOVEMBER 25, 1020. SECOND CHANCE I FOR OFFENDERS, OFFICIAL’S THEORY i BY FAY STEVENSON (Copyright, 1920) NEW YORK.—When a young girl or a young boy goes wrong I believe i in giving them another chance, even if they are second offenders. “When a man or a woman has been proved ‘an old offender’ I be lieve it is ‘in the blood,’ and six months or six years behind the bars will not cure th««n. To me they are mentally deficient, and a home, a well regulated institution where they can learn some useful occupa tion, is the only solution.” Sitting in her law office at No. 51 Chambers street, clad in a chestnut brown tailored suit, with the same shade sport hat, Mrs. Pauline O. Field, the only woman member of the Criminal Bar association and just recently elected president of that organization, uttered this good sense. The Criminal Bar association was organized about eight years ago by Judge Rosalsky of General Sessions, Mrs. Field has been a member only two years and during that time has obtained the consent of the board of estimate to permit the association to hold its meetings and to use perma nently for relatives and friends of prisoners rooms on the ground floor of the Criminal Courts building which are now known as the “law yers’ rooms.” Chosen Head In appreciation of this service, as well as for her capabilities, Mrs. Field was unanimously chosen as the head of the association. She will de vote her entire term of office to up lifting her status of the criminal lawyer, upon whom there has been the mere suggestion of an inclination to put a slight as compared xvith the lawyer who confines his work to civil cases. “Then you have known cases where the young girl or young boy has made good after a second of fense,” I asked Mrs. Field, “and you do not believe in branding youth?” “Youth is not formed in charac ter,” said Mrs. Field, “and so we must give them several chances. I have knoxvn young girls who have been shoplifters, stolen money from their employers and been arrested for disorderly conduct many times to finally turn out capable, splendid women. “I remember one case of a little girl who had been wronged when in her fourteenth year. At sixteen she was brought into court, charged with disorderly conduct. It was her first offense, so we let her off. Six months later she was brought in again on the same charge. She was sent axvay to a home, discharged in due time, and several months later again arrested on the same com plaint. “I had a long talk with this girl. I tried to explain that she was not branded with the letter ‘A’ and that all life was open to her. New work was found for her and today she is a sensible, fine woman, xvith a bank acount. She sends me postals every week and frequently comes to see me. Boys Make Good “This is also true with wayward boys. I have known boys who pawned their mothers’ watches, stole from their employers and relatives and at times seemed so hard that no human heart could reach them, to turn around just as if by magic and take foremost places *n the world. “Usually I believe in some sort of confinement, either a prison or, bet ter still, a home, for mental defec tives and for the ‘old offender,’ ” continued Mrs. Field, “but it is al ways well to investigate into the motive of the petty offender. For instance, I remember the case of an old offender xvho had been in the courts many times for petty thiev ing. The last time I had his case I found out that he had sold some furniture which had only been in trusted to him and did not belong to him. I found out that he had used the money for his family, and not for his oxvn personal benefit, therefore I obtained permission to let him off upon an easy sentence. His wife came to me and fairly kissed the hem of mj skirts. The man took heart and for five years his life has been unstained. There fore you see the criminal may be judged sometimes by the motive of his crime or misdemeanor.” Mrs. Field has many such cases to relate i and her constant thought and summing up of each case makes one realize why she was elected president of the Criminal Bar asso- | Military Prisoner Starts Hunger Strike HAVANA, Nov. 23. —Horacio Blan co Fombona, held a prisoner by the AmeriCcin military authorities in Santo Domingo, has started a hun ger strike,- according to word re ceived here. Fombona is a news paper man and has gained consid erable fame as a poet. The decision of Fombona to re fuse food is said to be not only in protest against his detention, but also against the class of food pro vided him. which is alleged to con sist of a ration of beans and po tsitoe s. Fombona is a member of a promi nent Venezuelan family and a broth er of Fufino Balco Fombona, a widely known author. He has re sided in Santo Domingo during the last six years because of differences with the present Venezuelan govern ment. Has First Illness At Age 146 Years CONSTANTINOPLE,. Turkey’s 146-year-old man, Zora Mehmed, re puted to be the oldest man in the world, is ill with indigestion. This lis the first time Zora has ever been ill. He complains that it is because of a set of false teeth. Zora has always been a carrier of weights ranging from 200 to 1,000 pounds. When he was forty-five years of age, that is, during the Napoleonic xvars, he tried to lift 500 pounds with his teeth and ruined them. He xvent along until 1850 without any teeth and then obtained a set which has worn out. About txx-enty years ago he got another set. He claims these teeth have given him indigestion. “When I get a new set of teeth I shall be all right again for another half century,” he said. Zora has a son aged ninety.

MORE THAN 2,000 ATTEND GEORGIA PRODUCTS DINNER More than 2,000 people were guests at the Georgia Products day dinner served at 1 o’clock Tuesday at the auditorium. Thirty-five long tables arranged in the huge arena xvere crowded xvith diners representing not only the city of Atlanta, but also various sections of the state. The menu, which was prepared un der the direction of the Joseph Hab ersham Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution, comprised the choicest selections of Georgia food products, and included a great as sortment of dainties grown from the hilis of north Georgia to the marshes of Glynn. Several civic organizations such as the Rotary club, the Kiwanis club and the Ad Men's club had reserved special tables for their mambership. and, together with the general pub lic, filled the tables to their capac ity, so that many persons coming to the auditorium expecting to enjov an old-fashioned Georgia ’ dinner, could not be served.
