PROJECT WINNER
Head of the Movement Sees
Opening of New Life for
Children.
Dr. Marion Hall, in charge of the
smnnmr vacations I schools of the Men
and Religion Forward Movement, with
M \\ t)rr 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.
"I am highly pleased with the work
and can see that It is opening up anew
life for the young people,” said Dr. Hall
at the conclusion of the visit. ‘‘We
"ill 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.
iT.ild'en busily engaged in drawing,
sewing, weaving and other arts, as well
as giving 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
I aught 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 be-rn given hourly automobile
titles in cars furnished by Atlanta men
behind the work.
There are no expert teachers con
n< < ted with the schools, but the results
wmrtl 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 t<»
emphasizing the necessity of good hab
its and good morals, and the children
have eadily responded to the teach
ings.
Each week the teachers meet with
F’.-p.. 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. la: ger 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.

DARROW, CONFIDENT,
RESUMES STAND TO
FINISH HIS DEFENSE
I LOS ANGELES, July 30. —Resuming
( the witness stand when the morning
I session of Judge Hutton's court opened
I 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
- cd. 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 bo 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 tlie Federal authorities orig
inally.
It is expected that Darrow's cross
examination will begin before the end
of the day's session.
PUT OFFtRAIN FOR
WRONG TICKET, SHE
NOW ASKS $10,000.00
The suit for SIO,OOO, which Mrs. J. C.
Duggard, of Douglasville, brought tn the
Cobb county superior court against the
Southern Railway company, was trans
ferred today to the Federal court and will
be set for the fall term.
Mrs. Duggard alleges that, on March 10
of this year she was given the wrong
ticket by the ticket agent at Douglasville
and when she got on the train found
that she had a ticket to Birmingham,
Ala . instead of to Pelham. 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 tlie train, coupled with the
anguish suffered because her grandson
was supposed to be dying at Pelham are
given as grounds for the suit.

TEXAS SHOWERS
LOWER COTTON
Weather Report Causes Heavy
Selling and Prices Accord
ingly Decline.
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
points lower than the previous close.
Liverpool cables were lower tluin 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 part 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
Il puts the market in a healthier posi
tion, and it is firmly believed a higher
marl et will follow.
At tlie close tl.e market was steady
with prices showing net losses of 25 to
36 points from the final of Monday’s quo
tations.

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 13.10 for October, but is upset by the
rapid fluctuations and he rain rumors
which will take some time to settle.

Os the Fleecy Staple
NEW YORK. July .70. —Carpenter. Bag
got A- Co.: The Journal of Commerce
reports the following on conditions of
Georgia and Louisiana:
I Georgia—Reports front Georgia are
| somewhat conflicting, but there is gen
| eral complaint of too much rain. The
plant is often reported small and stand
rather poor. It is somewhat grassy and
cultivation not good In some portions of
tlie state, however, a good deal of im
provement is reported for the last few
days. Crop Is still two or three weeks
;late.
Louisiana- Although many sections
' were planted three weeks late, growth
and fruitagle have been rapid and per
centage condition appears to have held
its own. compared with a month ago.
I when it was 75 per ce.it. The plant Is
; generally healthy, doing well and fruitage
! satisfactory. Too much rain has encour
| aged grass in some sections, but as a rule
cultivation is good. 801 l weevils are
, general, but up to date have not caused
: much damage.
; Browne. Drakeford £• Co.. Liverpool,
cable: "The market has declined in con
sequence of bearish houses selling to de-
I press price, sentiment becoming more
• bearish, fearing South selling."
Hood. Ferris <v Co cable: "Bureau
I expected very bullish, but present move
i ment Is quite speculative. \Ve are at a
dangerous poii-t Ma.v be higher, but we
advise caution. Texas would break tnar-
I ket 50 points quickly."
j The heavy selling- during the early
trading was led by Wilson. Gear. Schill
ana 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
i clouds in all sections. Oklahoma—Gen-
I erally clear: light rain in Sayre."
Belton. Tex., wires: “Cotton suffering
l from excessive beat anti lack of rain;
temperature 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; Lancashire
and hoping for ample supplies."
Tall, "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 offl
j rial.
A prominent export house of Fort
■Worth wires: "Owing to extreme tem-
I peratures and hot winds, never heard of
more complaint talked of all over and
deterioration everywhere."
Following are 11 a. m. bids: July
12.73, October 12.96, December 13.01. .lan

GOOD BUYING W

Expectation of Heavy Yield of
Growing Crops Stimulates
Trade in Securities.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, Jul.'- ,10. Tiic stock mar
ket opened quiet ami fairly steady today
with price changes confined to the small
est fractions. After the first ten min
utes of trading a slight irregularity which
had been in evidence gave way to a
somewhat firmer tone and advances oe
curit'ii from the opening figures. Ameri
can Sugar scored the highest of these
with a gain of 1 point. Initial recessions
of from % to % in Reading, Steel com
mon. Northern Pacific. Great Northern
preferred. American Beet Sugar and other
| issues were succeeded by almost uniform
I gains, which brought prices to or slight
| ly above the levels of yesterday's close.
American shares in the London market
i were strong, but slow. Covering was in
, evidence there in Canadian Pacific.
The curb market opened steady.
The tone in the late forenoon was dull
but firm. Fractional gains were made in
nearly all the important issues. Expecta
tions of a very heavj' yield of growing
crops induced good buying.
A firm lone appeared in the last half
hour and substantial gains were made in
many of the important stocks. Canadian
Pacific was prominent, scoring a gain of
1% points. Union Pacific, Reading, Atch
ison, Amalgamated Copper were the fea
tures. closing at about the highest points
of the day.
.On the curb Standard Oil Company of
Kansas shares made a sensational jump
of 80 points, going to 425.
The market closed dull, but firm, gov
ernments unchanged: other bonds firm.
