ffiT AND GOSSIP OONEWS Country Is Less Under the Heel of Capital Than at Any Previous Time. By B. C. FORBES. york. .July B.—Last Thursday na s nearer a real ••Independence Day" than the United States has known for . wf ,'p«ade3. And July 4. 1913. should be nearer -if it isn't the fault will be nur non. Is not the country throwing off , shackles? Are not the people—the ■a i, everv-day wotkera and voters raking a successful effort to come Into ■rest own? ft is less true today than it formerly that "the country is under ,|- e heel of capital." None knows this so well as capital And. happily, the better f . erts are willing that ft should he so, ic a greater extent than yet experienced. The leaven of democracy has spread to th? more enlightened of our capitalists. Strife-mongers will vehemently deny th ? They will point to glaring viola tions of the Golden Rule by certain piuto rrats. Thej will direct attention to the revelations made by recent investigations. They will triumphantly show that more than one capitalistic group has'sebemed to divide the country into zones, each zone >o be exploited by one group. The daily Vseoveries concerning the shipping pool's .ha'-p practices, the uncovering of un .-erupulous tactics by the old sugar trust, the iniquities of the oil trust, the merci less tactics of the tobacco trust—all these and a score of other condemnatory de velopments will be enumerated to prove that Big Business is as black as it can possibly be painted. That was in the past. Has there been no reform since? The incurable pessi mist. the hypochondriac, may reply: "Oh. yes. Look how beatific the oil trust has been since it ceased to control the industry. Look how it gracefully re linquished its hold on the Waters-Pierce I'ompany. Look how prices of oil have declined. And the poor, hounded tobacco trust. Look how it has suffered through the savage attacks of the government. Its securities have only gone up in value a score or more millions, just as the sub sidiaries of the oil trust recently sold at the highest quotation on record. Then, look how the coal trust has been sancti fed. When its employees wgre granted a small increase in pay. did the coal barons accept this as their share of the general increased cost of existence? Or did they seize upon the incident as an excuse to give the screw a fresh turn upon the thumb of the defenseless household er not the large corporate consumers who might have transferred their custom to soft coal producers?" • • » There would he as much truth as cyni cism in these charges. And yet -well, we are marching toward independence, toward independence not only of capi ta! 'hat seeks to be unjust, but of In triguing political bosses. « * » The action of the coal trust is to be regretted b? all who would strive for more amicable relations between capital end the people. There can he little ques 'ion that it was an abuse of monopolistic power, for no attempt was made to raise the nri'-e of that part of the output in "■lnch no monopoly exists. Is It not plain, therefore, that it was the monopolistic power which made the indiscriminate poß ’ b!« Every champion of fair dealing all round, every advocate of moderation on the part of entrenched power, every-well ■•f both capital and labor can but grieve the establishment of harmonious feel ing has been retarded by the short-sighted P* ’ 1 y pursued. The sooner the govern ment removes this source of rancor the ! ei'er alike for producers and consumers, f " r if the present statutes are impotent '!' prohibit, such highhanded conduct, the ' "ai Trust may be assured that effective 'gtdation will be brought forward.

S KENNEDY. President. Vice “-es'dent Ag»t. Ceshler. ” e. BLOCK. geo. R DONOVAN. J D LEITNER, -e President. Cashier. Asst. Cashier JUDGE ARCHBfiLD HIT GT PROBEfIS His Moral Responsibility Dead ened. Say Committee’s Ar ticles of Impeachment. WASHINGTON. July B.—Th» judi ciary committee of the house presented to that body today the articles of im peachment against Judge Robert \V. Archbald, of the commerce court, who is characterized as "one whose sense of moral responsibility has become deadened." The presentation of lite charges, eon-isting of thirteen articles of impeachment was one of the most solemn proceedings witnessed in tlie house in years. Chairman Clayton, of the judiciary committee, made the report, the adop tion of which will mean the trial be fore the senate of Judge. Archbald. In his sweeping indictment the com termed by the judiciary committee as one who has “prostituted his high of flee for personal profit The resolution charges in the cus tomary form that Judge Archbald has been guilty of "misbehavior and high crimes and misdemeanors." "Has Degraded His Office." The- impeachment proceedings grew out of the now famous culm bank deals in which the judge is attributed to have been interested in Pennsylvania, and the papers of impeachment con tain a lengthy review of the recent hearing before the house judiciary com mittee. In nts sweeping indictment the com mittee declares to the house: "Your committee is of the. opinion that Judge Archbald’s sense of moral responsibility lias become deadened. He has prostituted his high office for per sonal profit. He has attempted by va rious transactions to commercialize potentiality as a judge. He has shown an overweening desire to make gainful bargains with parties having cases be fore him. To accomplish this purpose' he has not hesitated to use his official power and influence. He lias degraded his high office 'and destroyed the confi dene of the public In his judicial in tegrity. He has forfeited the condi tion upon which he.holds his corjimis sion and should be removed from office by impeachment." To Vote Tomorrow. In presenting the Archbald report to tlie house today Chairman Clayton of the judiciary committee, asked that the re port might be printed in the record and gave notice that he will ask for action upon it tomorrow. Beyond the formal filing of the report and the reading of its conclusions today by Mr. Clayton the house took no action upon the Archbald impeachment proceedings. The report probably will come to a vote immediate ly after the reading of the journal at to morrow's session. PASSENGER WHO GOT ON THE WRONG TRAIN ASKS SI,OOO DAMAGES R. E L. Wray has asked SI,OOO dam ages of the Southern railway and the Atlanta Terminal Company, in the supe rior court, because he got on the wrong train when leaving the Atlanta station. He asserts employees of the two compa nies instructed him to board a train for Chattanooga when lie wanted to go to Baltimore; that he rode as far as Aus tell. and was there forced'off the train. He then returned to Atlanta and had to wait until next day to begin his North ern trip. WEATHER MAN SAYS IT'S NOT HOT: ONLY 84 it’s not very hot. the weather man says. It's just the humidity of the atmosphere that makes Atlantans un comfortable just now, according to Un cle Sam's experts. The maximum tern perature for today was 84 degrees and there is very little indication of a change. Light showers are expected, as usual JAMES J. FLYNT IN RACE FOR R. R. COMMISSIONER James J. Flynt. of Spaulding, former president of the senate, announced positively today that he will be a can didate for one of the vacancies on tlie railroad commission Mr. Flynt had been generally looked upon as a prob able entry. His formal announcement will be made within the. week. xHE ATLANTA GE( j NEWS AND GOSSIP [ Os the Fleecy Staple NEW YORK. July B.—Carpenter, Bag got & Co.: The Memphis Commercial- Appeal says: Too much rain over the cotton belt acted as a deterrent to the normal growth of the plant during the past week, and in many parts of the belt did actual damage that may not be over come during the remainder of the sea son. The growth of the plant was not up to normal except in the western por tion and in South Carolina in the east. Cultivation was retarded in all parts of the belt, and grass and weeds have gained a foothold In the fields of the cen tral and eastern portions, rendering their eradication a serious problem. The lack of proper growth in the remainder of this portion of the belt adds further to the lateness of the plant. In the west the plant made excellent progress, especially in Oklahoma and Texas, where splendid conditions of the previous week continued. Rainfall was more than was needed in this part of the belt, but caused no dam age. The plant is fruiting nicely, but generally one to four weeks late, varying with location. The crying need of the cr< p is warm weather, with plenty of sun shine and a cessation of rain. Damage from boll weevil lavages so far has been inconsequential. No reports are made of tlie cotton a: my worm. Profit-taking , has been heavy today. .Many say ring is getting along. Pell heavy seller through Riordan, Wa ters and Schill.

January 12.24. The weather bureau predicts continued warm weather over the interior middle, and southern districts during the week. In the south Atlantic and east Gulf states the showers will probably be less frequent than during last week. New York wires Pell has sold about 8.000 bales so far. The New Orleans Times-Democrat re ports on condition as of July 4. as follows: Acreage probably been decreased about 8 per cent. Outside of Texas reports leave much to be desired, the crop being ex tremely late and spotted as a rule. Con dition in Texas is high and a large yield is expected. There is a good deal of con cern as to prospective damage by insects of various sorts, but it is too soon Io make definite forecasts: supply of labor generally plentiful, and no trouble ex pected on this score. Present situation may be summed up by saying that, throughout most of the belt the lateness of crop whl make date of frosts supreme ly important.” Correspondents report on the cotton crops as of July 1: 1. The acreage probably has been de creased by about 8 per cent. 2. Outsiue of Texas, rhe reports leav? much to be desired, the crop being ex tremely late and spotted, as a rule. 3.

July 8. -There was fair buying by the public today at the open ing of the cotton market, with the result that first prices were 5 to It points higher. The cables were also.firm and several points better than due. There was heavy selling by several brokers at the outset, but this was more than offset by the demand. After the call the activity in creased with prices from 9 to 10 points higher than on new crop positions. At noon the market was under heavy selling pressure by some of the big pro fessionals and commission taking profit. I bis caused a weak tone to develop upon the market, and a downward movement in prices, carrying quotations 3 to 11 points below the opening figures. The iate weather forecast reported favorable conditions over the larger portion of the belt. At the close the market was steady, showing net losses of 4 to 8 points below the final quotations of Saturday. Warehouse stocks in New York today, 124.344; certificated. 106,72').

July 8. —Liverpool ad vanced as much as 16 English points, against about 12 points liigner due, and quoted spots tl points higher. Washing ton predicts a week of slightly warmer weather; mostly fair, but occasional thunder storms with probably less precip itation than during past week. The map shows fair weather: no rain in western belt; cloudy and general showers in east ern belt, but precipitation mostly light except on the Atlantic coast district, where heavier rains occurred. Indications are for fair weather in Western states: much warmer in northwest portion. Cloudy with local showers in the central and eastern states. Our market advanced to 12.40 for Oc tober iu early trading, but was checked by heavy realizing in New York and sell ing by straddlers on the large difference of 25 points from New York. The. gov ernment dally weather forecast of local showers for the cehtral and eastern states gave the market, another bullish impulse, which carried October to 12.45. Heavy realizing by New York bulls then weakened the market again to 12.28. Pell & Co. are reported large sellers.

July B.—Nearly all the im portant railroad and Industrial stocks sold ai sharp recessions at the opening of the stock market today, trading re flecting a disturbance of speculative po sitions by the showings of the bank state- I men! on Saturday. There was an ab- ] sence of demand, but after fifteen minutes, a steadier tone set in and some of the ssues rallied. Reading and Lehigh Vai- ] ley acted In unison, declining % from Saturday's closing. Amalgamated Copper and I nlted States Sti.c! common were % ! lower. American Smelting was % lower, i Canadian Pacific was one of the few is sues making a gain. It opened at 26654, a gain of •%. Southern Pacific. Baltimore and Ohio, l.rie and Pennsylvania were unchanged. Union Pacific lost %. 'I he curb was quiet. Americans in Lon don were listless. Canadian Pacific in London rallied. A heavy tone prevailed in the late fore-' noon and losses tanging around I point I were sustained in a number of issues. ! boston and London were prominent sell ers of nearly all the active issues, and I particularly Amalgamated Copper and | United States Steel. Speculation sentiment continued bear- ’ ish throughout the afternoon, and further ] declines were sustained in a number of i issues. The copper stocks suffe-ed to the greatest extent. Amalgamated Coo per. Utah Copper and the American Smelting all yielded over 2 points from Saturday’s final. Boston houses were ag gressfve sellers, many attributing the bear movement there to Thomas W. Law son. Tlie market closed steady. Governments unchanged; other bonds steady.
