six years from lAs than S2O to SBO a toot, or from 400 to 500 per cent.

them have been worked out and developed in accordance with the
plans already proposed. It is proposed to work out and grade and
chert East North avenue from Kennesaw avenue, east, with an under
pass at the Southern railway near Ponce DeLeon. This will make a
great east and west highway—-free from street cars—running from the
great industrial center along Marietta street, by the Tech school and
Ponce DeLeon, into and through Druid Hills, and from there to Decatur
and East Lake. North avenue is only 200 feet from these lots.

S
NEW YORK. May 15.—Overnight Fell
ing orders caused the cotton market to
open with prices ranging from unchanged
to 6 points lower today. Despite the firm
ness of cables prices continued to decline
after the call. Local traders were in
clined to believe that Tuesday’s sharp ad
vance had eliminated the shorts from the
market.
The opening was marked with fair buy
ing by some of the bullish element, but
it soon was evident the ring had selling
orders and the offerings were rather heavy
for a while, which caused some decline.
The hears were encouraged by predictions
of better weather and some who bought
yesterday took profits. The selling was
well taken. The buying seems to come
from good sources.
Id the afternoon there was a rally
of 7 io 9 points on buying by spot inter
ests.
At the close the market was barely
steady at the low levels of the session,
net 9 to 13 points under the final quo
tations of Tuesday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. May 15. Today’s of
ficial weather data contradicted yester
day's harassing reports of bad weather
which were circulated in New York. The
prospects for a lasting spell of good
weather are more pronounced.
A party in San Antonio says crops in
south and southwest Texas are well ad
vanced and in an excellent state of culti
vation. Acreage considerably Increased
Liverpool follows the changes In our
market closely. Correspondence from
1 her® says crop accounts arc so varied
that nobody seems to have a well defined
idea about prospects Spot prices are to
day quoted 10 points higher: sales. B,l*oo
bales. Crop accounts from Egypt so far
reporting some increase In acreage and a
good start. Crop accounts from Alabama
and Mississippi showed a decidedly more
hopeful tenor today. Much work has
been accomplished during the present,
spell of good weather The river situa
tion is Improving. River stages show a
‘laity fall.
Our market opened unchanged and
waited some time for a demonstration of
bullish power in New York, but as it did
not appear in Hie first hour, the market
followed normal inclinations and eased
on the weather being so much better than
expected and prospects for good weather.

the long-deferred settlement of the New
York subway situation, by which both
the Interboro-Metropolitan and the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit will benefit
through contract awards, and the Inter
borough-Metropolitan preferred was one
of the most active stocks on the list at
the opening of the stock market today;
advancing 1% to 58. Fractional gains
were made in the common and also in
Brooklyn Rapid Transit.
Prices in the important railroads and
industrials in many cases were at sub
stantial gains at the outset, although a
reaction set in after about 20 minutes of
trading
The hard coal stocks were again in de
mand as a result of continued optimistic,
reports rgearding the anthracite situa
tion. Reading gained % and Lehigh Val
ley advanced 1%.
United States Steel common opened at
71. a gain of■% over Tuesday's closing,
but selling carried off the gain and caused
a loss within a few minutes of the trad
ing
