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.

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. BANGE OF NEW YORKPUTUTbES. § I it ««> $ J' ?
