Dr. Marion Hall, In charge of the summer vacational schools of the Men and Religion Forward Movement, with TV. W. Orr and J. J. Eagan, of the Bible study board, noted remarkable progress by Atlanta children on a tour of in spection of the newly established schools today. “1 am highly pleased with the Work and can see that It Is opening up a new life for the young people,” said Dr. Hall at the conclusion of the visit. ‘‘Wo will endeavor to enlarge the schools at once.” The trip of inspection began shortly before 10 o'clock and lasted until a complete examination of the work in the four schools had been made. Children busily engaged in drawing, sewing, weaving and other arts, as well as Riving time for singing and simple study of the Bible, were found In the schools —all in churches or public school rooms. Three of them are for white children, located in Wesley Me morial and the Immanuel Baptist churches and the Exposition Cotton Mills school. The fourth, for negro children, is being held at the Richland street mission, an educational building established by the Central Presbyterian church. In the morning hours the children are given lessons in industrial arts, are taught lessons from religious works and later are grouped for a number of religious songs. Then they are in structed in athletic exercises, or are taken for little picnics. Some of them have been given hourly automobile rides in cars furnished by Atlanta men behind the work. There are no expert teachers con nected with the schools, but the results would not indicate It. Every teacher is a college or high school student', but they have brought the young attend ants to an astonishingly high plane of living. A great deal of time Is given Lu emphasizing the necessity of good hab its and good morals, and the children have readily responded to the teach ings. Each week the teachers meet with Rev. G. R. Buford, superintendent of the schools, for a brief conference, and at this meeting plans for the week are thoroughly discussed. Already many plans for enlargement and advancement of the work have been laid, and when the schools open at the next vacation period, in June, 1913, larger halls for the groups of chil dren will be necessary, it is thought. The schools have at present 1,147 chil dren attending them, which grew from 537 six weeks ago.

July 30.—Resuming the witness stand when the morning session of Judge Hutton's court opened today, Clarence Darrow expected today to complete his testimony in his own behalf. Fortified by a good night's rest, the famous labor lawyer had a confi dent bearing. Rogers, chief counsel for Darrow, and Darrow conferred before the trial open ed. Rogers in his direct examination wanted to jump ahead to the more im portant points, but Darrow protested to his counsel that he preferred to take the story up chronologically. He said it would be easier that way, and Rogers acquiesced. Coincident with the order of the court that the defense be permitted to in spect all documents in the possession of the state purporting to be written by the defendant, District Attorney Fred ericks turned over to the defense a fat envelope today. Before he went on the stand, Darrow perused copies of tel egrams and letters, most of which were secured by the Federal authorities orig inally.

Ga.. where she wanted to go. She says she was put off the train at Austell and was forced to delay her arrival in Pelham until next day. Bodily injury from having to remain in an unheated station at Austell in the early morning and the humiliation of being put off the train, coupled with the anguish suffered ' because her grandson was supposed to be dying at Pelham are given as grounds for the suit.

NEW YORK, July 30.- Irregularity was shown in the cotton market on the open ing today, with first figures ranging from unchanged to 2 points higher to 1 to 4 Eoints lower than the previous close, iverpool cables were lower than expect ed In consequence of bearish houses sell ing to depress prices. Within 10 minutes after the opening the market was under heavy selling pressure, led by some big professionals with the ring crowd helping out, causing prices to break with losses from 9 to 17 points below the previous close. This was explained on the ground the market was overbought and'that the crop in Texas had been exaggerated. Later. however, the market rallied 5 to 14 points. The weather conditions reported favor able over the larger nart of the belt. The market was still under heavy sell ing during the afternoon session on re ports from Texas saying a few light scat tered showers had prevailed over that state. This report renewed the aggress iveness of big professionals and the ring crowd who have been unloading some of their long lines taking profit, causing prices to show a further decline from the early decline, prices being 17 to 27 points below the previous close. This reaction may be extended temporarily further, but it puts the market in a healthier posi tion, and it is firmly believed a higher market will follow. At the close the market was steady with prices showing net losses of 26 to J 6 points from the final of Monday's quo tations.

Indications for part cloudy in the northwest quarter. Possibly some show ers in Arkansas and northern Oklahoma. Continued warm and generally fair in the balnce of the western states. Increasing cloudiness and thunder showers are Indi cated for today and tomorrow over the Eastern half of the belt.

Our market opened about 4 points lower and sold off to 13.10 for October in the early trading, owing to further easiness in New York. Buying was checked by news that leading longs had sold heavily yesterday In the last hour. The market in the second hour eased further. October selling to 12.99 on reports of sprinkling at Fort Worth and Dallas. Light showers will hardly do any good. What Is needed is a general ample rainfall. The market recovered promptly to 18.10 for October, but is upset by the rapid fluctuations and lie rain rumors which will take some time to settle.

Drakeford £• Co., Liverpool, cable: "The market has declined in con sequence of bearish houses selling to de press price, sentiment becoming more bearish, fearing South selling.” Hood, Ferris Co. cable: “Bureau expected very bullish, but present move ment is quite speculative. We are at a dangerous point. May be higher, but we advise caution. Texas would break mar ket 50 points quickly.” The heavy selling during the early trading was led hy Wilson. Gear. Schill and the ring crowd. Commission houses have been among the best buyers and sellers during the past few days, which is believed to be for the public interest. Dallas wires: "Texas Scattered clouds in ail sections. Oklahoma—Gen erally clear; light rain in Sayre.” Belton, Tex., wires. "Cotton suffering from excessive beat and lack of rain; temnerature 110 here now.” The weekly government report on weather worse than expected and un favorable. Liverpool cables: “Tendency somewhat reactionary; talent ultimately bullish, but temporary short; distinctly nervous and news makes sharp changes. Every one talking continued big trade, iJtncashire and hoping for ample supplies.” Talk -f prospect of less than 14,000 000 bales crop would undoubtedly start a further advance. The ring erwod sold on reported rain at Fort Worth, but report was not offi cial. A prominent export house of Fort Worth wires: "Owing to extreme tem peratures and hot winds, never heard of more complaint talked of all over and deterioration everywhere.” Following are 11 a. m. blds: July 12.73, October 12.96, December 13.01, Jan uary 13.97.

MISSISSIPPI DELTA COTTON 25 PER CENT BELOW A YEAR AGO MEMPHIS, TENN., July 30.—A bulletin was displayed at the cotton exchange to day showing the condition of tha cotton crop in the Mississippi delta to be of 25 per cent lower grade than on a corre sponding date In 1911. Between Shaw and Vicksburg, Miss., where high waters In April prevented planters from planting, thousands of acres have never been plowed. Cotton on the ridgea is but six to eight inches tall and only starting to bloom. In other parte of the overflowed delta farmers plowed up cotton and plant ed corn. The latter crop has been greatly dam aged by dry, hot weather with army worms eating Into the healthy cotton dis trlcts In northern Mississippi, destroying hundreds .of acres The Arkansas, west Tennessee and Mississippi corn crop Is practically ruined by dry weather. 15
