DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. May Ll.—Liverpool

up toward the close, probably on buying
orders from this side, induced h? news of
a heavy rain storm here Last night. Spots
unchanged at 6.53; sales 10.000 bales.
It was naturall.' concluded that the
heaw rains which fell here lasi night
would also fall in the upper belt, but
the map this morning showed that ’he
heaw rain was confined to the central
gulf coast districts. Elsewhere in the
belt there were only light to moderate
showers except in the Shreveport district ’
covering north Louisiana and southern
Arkansas, where some heavy rains also
occurred. The precipitation was partic
ularly light in the. Atlantics. and there
was no rain in the greater part nf Texas
While some showers are probable today m
the eastern half of the belt, generally
clearing is indicated over Sunday.
The rainstorm which threatened th®
northern belt yesterday has moved out
nf the cotton belt over Illinois. Our mar
kets. in spite of the good Liverpool, weak
ened. and October here sold to 11.60 soon
after the opening. The decline was due
10 disappointment over the weather and
selling to hedge by those who had an
ticipated bad weather and bought In Liv
-erpool ' . , |
. professional advices fFont ’.ork
suggest that certain strong interests are
not in favor of the market, principally I
for technical reasons rhe near future of |
the market depend- altogether on weather
developments. The technical condition
all around would be against It in case of
a spell of good weather, which might also |
change, the tenor of the coming govern

NEW YORK. May 13.—Possibility that
the suspense over the government's suit
against the coal trust would be ended by
a decision from the. supreme court today
and the further possibility of a settle
ment of labor troubles in the anthracite
coal fields caused the hard coal roads to
open with substantial gains at the open
, Ing of the stock market today Lehigh
Valley was the feature, opening with a
gain of 1’ 4 . and then making further
advance until the aggregate upturn was 2
points. Reading opened up \ and then
moved up for a net gain of 1 point. Erie
common advanced Baltimore and
Ohio moved up K.
Influenced by strength in London. Cana
dian Pacific opened here 1 point above
Saturday's elosing.
United States .Steel common was un
changed at the outset, but later gained
fractionally. The entire list was strong
at the offset, and gains were marie
throughout.
Among the other advances were Amal
gamated Copper American Smelting
Atchison I nion Pacific '» and
Southern Pacific 'j. \t the end of tis
teen minutes profit-taking wiped out some
of the early advance.

Why Not This Bank?
ORGANIZED NEARLY HALF A
century ago and conducted and de
\ eloped along conservative, vet progres
sive lines, the ATLANTA NATIONAL
BANK has steadily gained in strength,
in scope and in the confidence of the
people. Implicit confidence led to exten
sive relations throughout this state,
which, in turn, induced a large, increase
in the Bank's i-esources and continual
and intimate relations with the leading
commercial and manufacturing inter
ests of this section.
Think what an association with such
a bank* would mean to von, Mr. Business
