and Now Has a Chance for
Recovery.
TOKIO, July 23 (Tuesday).—Em
pet or Mutsuhito recovered conscious
ness at midnight and at 1 a. tn. was
sleeping comfortably for the first time
since his illness became critical. He
| now has a chance of recovery.
rhe royal patient's temperature at
i midnight Sunday showed a marked
s decrease while his pulse had materially
strengthened. The favorable symp
toms continued in evidence during the
early hours yesterday, but a sudden re
, lapse caused his life to be despaired of
' again.
Taft Telegraphs Sympathy.
The royal princes today maintained
ihi ir vigilance at the palace and mes
sages of condolence poured in on the
, royal family from all quarters of the
i world Tlie American ambassador,
t harles Page Bryan, personally pre
sented a I elegram of sympathy from
' President I aft. Special services by
J Japanese of all religious faiths were
i held throughtout the empire today for
the emperor’s recovery. All plans have
1 been made to meet the situation that
would be caused by the emperor’s
. death. The newspapers have been
warned not to print sensational rumors,
and all troops whose loyalty is doubted
or whose discipline is known not to
, be up to the mark, have been ordered
, confined to their barracks.
• The cabinet met yesterday and will be
; practically continuously in session until
• the emperor is pronounced out of dan
ger or death ends his sufferings.
i Although physicians held out hope
. for the mikado’s recovery, they issued
j the following bulletin:
■’Temperature, 100 3-4 Fahrenheit:
pulse. 88: digestion good: improved
, condition sustained.”
; This showed a slight decrease in the
fever, which had risen after the ad
ministration of food.
EDW. SLADE TO BE TRIED
FOR KILLING AT RAINES
HORDELE. GA. July 22,-At a meet
ing of the local bar association, called
by Judge Walter F. George of the Cor
dele circuit, the docket of cases for the
aproaching August term of court was
sounded.
One criminal case, around which
there is a great deal of interest cen
tered, is that of Edward Slade, the
eighteen-year-old son of Price Slade.
, who is held for the death of Oscar N.
Johnson, his neighbor, near Raines, in
the southwest portion of the county, on
, June 19.
At the coroner’s inquest and at the
commitment trial Slade confessed to
killing Johnson, but sets up the plea
■ of self-defense. There were no eye
witnesses to the tragedy, hut testimony
shows there was considerable 111 feeling
and that threats had been made by both
parties and by the father of young
Slade previous to the killing.

NEAR DEATH AS AUTO
STALLS ON RAILROAD
M K. Stearn. his wife and mother
in-law and a friend who was with the
party of Atlantans, are recovering their
nerves today after a narrow escape
from death when their automobile
stalled on the Southern railway tracks
near Norcross.
The party was motoring out the road
to Norcross when the ear went dead on
the railroad crossing and suddenly Mrs.
Stearn, who was in the rear seat, saw
the fast Atlanta-to-New York train
approaching. Her screams attracted
her husband, who was cranking up the
ear. and a moment before the train de
molished his machine he got his party
safely to one side. The automobile is a
wreck.
BILL TO HELP WHITE
RAILWAY FIREMEN IN
GA. IS NEAR PASSAGE
House bill No. 128. which will come
up for a third reading and probably
passage tomorrow, is one in which la
boring men generally are interested
greatly.
This bill provides certain qualifica
tions for locomotive firemen and was
framed to aid the white firemen in their
war to displace the negro firemen on
railways in Georgia.
This effort to displace the negro fire
men 1b not a new issue. Several years
ago the question of negro firemen be
came very acute in Georgia, and re
sulted in a tie-up of business on at
least one Georgia road for several days.
The bill is indorsed by labor bodies
generally, and likely will become a law.
The white firemen claim that the bill
will operate largely to the safety and
comfort of the traveling public.
CATOOSA SHERIFF HIDES
WITH AN ATLANTA NEGRO
RINGGOLD. GA . July 22.—Webb
Shealey, a negro, who claims to be
from Atlanta, is in the custody of the
sheriff of Tatoosa county, who is hid
ing at some point near here until the
excitement of a man-hunt subsides.
After being pursued by a posse for sev
eral hours, the negro was captured near
Ooltewah. Tenn., just over the Georgia
line, and was carried to Chattanooga,
where he was turned over to t.he Ca
toosa sheriff.
While the chase was on the posse
was frequently w ithin shooting distance
and the negro’s back was filled with
shot
Shealey is alleged to have insulted
the wife of Elbert Harris, a farmer of
this county, while he was absent from
home. Harris returned in time to
frighten the negro away. The man
hunt then started.
BUYING GHFCKS
COTTON SLUMP
Aggressiveness of Big Traders
Breaks Downward Trend
Due to Weather.
NEW YtiRK. July 22. Improved weath
er conditions over the cotton belt over
Sunday and weak cables resulted in ac
tive unloading at the opening of the cot
ton market today. First prices ranged
from 6 to 13 points lower. Following the
call the market became unsettled and
was from 10 to 12 points off from Satur
day’s prices. Commission, houses were
liberal sellers.
During the afternoon trading some large
professionals and a leading broker, who
usually represents a large spot interest,
showed aggressiveness by buying heavily,
endeavoring to bid the market up. This
checked the earl' decline, with prices ad
vancing 3 to 5 points over the first quota
tions. This buying was believed to be
caused by the many anticipations of a
bullish weekly government report on
weather. The market Is entirely a
weather object and will be governed by
any changes, with an absence of rain in
the eastern belt and good general showers
In Texas, would undoubtedly have a de
pressing effect upon the market
Warehouse stocks in New York today
112.146, certificated 99.327.
At the close the market was barely
steady, with prices showing a net decline
of 5 to 10 points lower than the final quo
tations of Saturday.

NEW YORK. July 22.—Carpenter, Bag
got <K- Co.: The Memphis Commercial-
Appeal says: During past week cotton
crop duplicated Its performance of pre
vious week, and made progress west of
the river and lost ground east of the
river. Western progress was at least bal
anced by eastern deterioration and prob
ably outwlched. In some parts of the
section east of the river there was prog
ress. due tn the scattered nature of the
rains. In large portions of states nearest
the Mississippi river, the precipitation
has not been excessive, and in these dis
tricts the crop made good advance, but
the deterioration in the portions where
rainfall was ton heavy, aaded to the al
most solid deterioration farther east and
overbalanced the gains. West of the
river the crop made excellent progress,
especially in < Oklahoma and Texas, where
the splendid conditions of the last fort
night was maintained. A drouth is
threatened in parts of this territory, but
so far no actual damage has resulted
from the dry weather. Plants are fruit
ing splendidly and are clean, well culti
vated fields. Complaints of boll weevil
are few with very little damage so far.
Complaints of boil weevil are few with

By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, July 22.—The stock mar
ket opened today with a display of pro
nounced strength, enarly all of the im
portant issues making fractional gains in
the initial trading. Union Pacific was one
of the most important of the early feat
ures. advancing % to 169%. Brisk de
mand was In evidence in many other rail
roads, including Erie, Reading and St.
Paul.
A significant feature of the trading was
the fact that tlie inltal sales were followed
by farther gains This was taken by the
traders to mean that the market had as
sumed a broader tendency.
Among the other early price changes
were the following: Steel common up %.
Amalgamated Popper up I'4. Erie com
mon up ' 4 . Reading up !'». Erie preferred
up IQ American railroad shares dis
played a cheerful tone in the London mar
ket.
In the late forenoon large sales were
made in Steel common, checking the up
ward movement in that stock and a sim
ilar supply was noted in many other is
sues. The copper shares were in fairly
good demand. A number of specialties
were also active and strong American
Tobacco moved up 6'4 and American Snuff
5 points and P. Lorillard 2 points.
Trading was almost at a standstill after
midday and there were no price changes
of consequence. There was no demand
for stocks in evidence, and what few
transactions occurred reflected merely the
shifting of positions by room traders.
Canadian Pacific was heavy.
The curb market opened irregular.

('HIi'AGO, July 22.—Wheat market
opened easy. % to %c lower, due to a
continuation of favorable weather over
Sunday and expectations of a liberal run
of new wheat. Reports of black rust In
South Dakota caused a small bulge from
the, opening break.
Corn was weak on general selling, due;,
to favorable weather.
Oats opened steady and advanced
slightly, as weather was too wet.
Provisions steady, despite the break of
5 cents in hogs and a larger run than ex
pected.
Wheat closed heavy in tone, with i:
prices %c to ic lower. Continued fa- 1
vorable crop prospects in the Northwest
and liberal receipts In the Southwest were
the factors. There was a disposition on
the part of shorts to take profits, which -«
caused some reaction from the bottom.
Corn was off %c to %c to %c. The...
market was heavy throughout, partlcu- •’
iarly July and September, on good crop
prospects. ?l
Oats were firm and closed with prices
ranging from %c tn I%c higher. Unfa

was the influence.
Provisions were lower all around. In
