GEORGIA—FuIton County.
To the Superior Court of Said County:
The petition of the Atlanta Taxicab
Company respectfully shows to the court:
1. Petitioner was duly incorporated by
order of this court gi anted on the 13th
day of November. 1908, and thereafter
its charter was amended, by order of this
court, on the 24th day of December, 1908.
2. At a meeting of the stockholders of
said corporation, duly called for the pur
pose, on the 27th day of August. 1912, a
resolution was adopted by the affirmative
vote of the owners of more than two
thirds of the capital stock of t said cor
poration, resolving that the said corpora
tion shall surrender its charter and fran
chise to the state and be dissolved as a
corporation. A duly certified eopy of the (
resolution, with recital of the vote thereon
as it appears upon the minutes of said
corporation, will be to the court shown.
3 Petitioner shows that such dissolu
tion may be allowed without injustice to
any stockholder, or to any person having
claims or demands of any character
against said corporation. Its assets are
reasonably worth considerably more than
the outstanding valid claims and demands
or creditors, but as a going concern, it
is rapidly losing money.
Wherefore, petitioner prays for an or
der directing the filing of this petition,
the fixing of the time for hearing thereon,
and directing the advertisement of the
petition as required by law, and finally
for an order dissolving said corporation.

NEW YORK. Sept. 20.—Better cables 1
than expected causeil the cotton market
to open steady, with prices a net gain ■
of 2 to 6 points over last night's close,
with the exception of October, which '
opened 1 point lower. During the first ;
fifteen minutes of trading good buying!
prevailed from different sources with /
shorts the chief buyers and prices:
worked on an upward trend, gaining 3 to 1 '
8 points. - . -I
After the call a smiden unloading move- ■
ment came about and prices dropped an |
aggregate of 11 to 15 points in most ac
tive ’ positions from the opening, or 4 to
6 points under the previous close.
This precipitant realizing seemed in
fluenced to a large extent by the favora
ble weather map and indications for bet
ter weather in Texas and over the belt.
Commission houses and spot interests
were good buyers during the forenoon
trading on reports of storm and heavy
rains in the central and western part of
lexas. It is believed such would dam
age the cotton that is now open and
lower the grade to some extent and the
buying was based upon these impres
sions. This buying did not stimulate the
market very much, as the bears were in
the ring offering heavily, while spot
houses offered freely. The ring crowd
seemed to have gone short on this de
cline and they bought at times. Prices
during the afternoon session were practi
cally unchanged from the opening prices,
while December displayed the most weak
ness.
At the close the market was steady,
with prices ranging 4 to 10 points above
the final quotations of Thursday.
