STARVING CHINESE
BECOME CANNIBALS;
SOLDIERS MISSING
SHANGHAI. Sept. 26.—Fifty Chinese
soldiers who set out with a wagon train
of rice from Ningpo to relieve some of
the hundreds of thousands of starving
persons in the eastern hal* of Cheang
province, which was recently swept by
a typhoon, have disappeared and it is
believed they were killed and eaten.
A telegram received here today from
Ningpo states that a missionary w'ho
has just returned there from the Ngeu
river valley, after incredible hardships,
reports that famishing men and women
have been turned to cannibals by star
vation. Floods which followed the ty
phoon washed away their crops and
drowned their live stock.
Along the coast in the low-lying
country circling the bay of Chow, a
tidal wave killed thousands and their
bodies are strewn upon the beaches,
save where they were washed out into
the sea.
No hopes remain that the band of
soldiers escaped death. Mutiny, which
was afterward quelled, broke out
among the soldiers when they were, or
dered into the zone of desolation to do
"grave duty.” The spldiers feared
death from pestilence if they ventured
into the storm-swept districts, where
thousands of bodies had lain in the
open since the floods went down, ten
days ago.

ENORMOUS SALESi
LOW COTTON
One Hundred Thousand Bales
Sold in First Hour —Senti-
ment Bearish.
NEW YORK. Sept. 26.--Selling of cot
ton which had been bought yesterdav on
the supposition that frost would prevail
over the eastern belt, came out at the
opening of the cotton market today, with
the result that the list ranged from un
changed to 4 points below last night’s
close. The tone was firm. After the call
there was further selling, which de
pressed prices about 6 points under last
night s close.
Selling continued general and heavy
throughout the morning session aftd it
was estimated that fully 100,000 bales were
thrown upon the market. It’s very hard
to say where this cotton came from, but
the general belief is that the bear element
is endeavoring to get the market in lower
levels to enable them to lake on a vast
amount of cheap cotton and large orders
were cast upon the market on the theory
that much money had been lost In previ
ous years in purchasing cotton on frost
Where this cotton went to It’s very
difficult to say who absorbed it. but it is
believed spot interests took a great quan
tity of it. After this precipitant selling
wave the market steadied and prices
worked back toward the opening
December and January displayed the
most weakness. December dropped from
11'ri to 11.44, while January fell from
IL.SL to 11 43. The remaining positions
followed rhe decline moderately. There
was little or nothing doing in the market
during the afternoon, while fluctuations
were narrow with prices an aggregate of
2 to 7 paints from the opening. There
seemed to be a good demand for cotton
on all declines, which was a dominating
factor for the firmly maintained prices.
During the last half hour of trading re
newed selling pressure prevailed and
prices slumped back into the low levels
with October going io 11.02. At the close
the market was steady with prices a net
loss of 16 to 23 points from the final fig
ures of Wednesday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. Sept. 26. The weight
of supplies and the indifference on the
part of consumers seem to outweigh for
the present bullish weather and crop
developments. Liverpool again came in
dull and easy, with spots 1 point lower.
New York support also seemed absent,
for that market opened lower in spite of
bad weather news, and caused a corre
sponding decline here In December to
11. New York reports an unfavorable
lechnical condition of the market, absence
of speculative short interest and gives
this as a reason for the lack of support
by bull operators
The weather, however, is so bad that
pressure against bull interests was not
very pronounced and the market rallied
and settled around 11.56 for December.
The map shows fair weather in Texas
and north Oklahoma, and cloudy else
where. Unusually low temperatures in
ihe northwestern quarter. General rains
in south Texas and the central states;
no rain and seasonable temperatures in
il.e eastern slates Heavy to killing frost
I was reliably reported from many points
in Oklahoma, with temperatures of 32 de
grees.
Indications are for a slight rise in tem
peratures in the Northwest, but colder
and more rain for the central and east
ern belt. Some storm formation is
shown in the east Gulf, but the cold wave
over the belt is likely to control it and
keep it out of the belt. There is no longer
any doubt that the Oklahoma crop has
been considerably cut down by the cold
wave Full facts will only be known
in a few days.

NEW YORK, Sept. 26.—Carpenter. Bag
got Ki Co.: A special report to The Jour
nal of Commerce said: "Mississippi sea
son still about three weeks late and 'an
early frost would considerably shorten the
yield. 801 l weevils very numerous and
much damage Inflicted, together with the
army worm, which seriously impaired top
crop prospects. Dry weather and army
worms chief cause of shedding, but little
loss has occurred from this source. Sev
eral points In percentage condition have
been lost during the month. Crop only
about 13 per cent picked, against 28 per
cent, against 17 per cent two years ago
“Louisiana Worms and boll weevils,
accompanied by hot weather, have caused
considerable deterioration and very much
lessened prospects of a top crop. Foliage
badly stripped and bolls are exposed.
Condition considerably below last month,
but probably better than last year when
it was 61.2 and 49.3 year before. Percent
age picked is roughly 32 per cent, against
46 last year and 38 two years ago.”
Anticipations prevail that frost will not
be detrimental to cotton to a great extent.
Dallas wires: “Texas clear to part
cloudy and cold, Amarillo 38; light frost;
no other frost reported. 42 Paris, 46 Dal
las. 42 Henrietta Oklahoma clear and
cold; heavy frost at New Kirk, Cuchfng.

There has been fully a hundred thou
sand bales of cotton thrown on the mar
ket this morning. This cotton has been
taken by somebody and it Is believed by
spot people.
After the heavy wave of selling was
over the market responded easily to little
buying.
There is no question of heavy frosts in
Oklahoma and will be followed by more
tonight. This we must not overlook, it
is very early for such cold weather and
Is a forerunner of what we may expect in
a very short while.
lieports of deterioration continue to
come in and there is no question that the
crop is much smaller than many believe.
Spot demand continues good and in the
face of this demand and the very unfa-

NEW ORLEANS, Sept 26.—Hayward <*i
t'iark: The weather map shows fair in
north Texas and Oklahoma; cloudy else
where. Unusually low temperature in
north Texas and Oklahoma; 44 at Fort
Worth, 36 at Oklahoma City. General
tains in central states, heavy at several
polpts. Indications are for slightly wand
er weather in the northwest, but colder
and mere rain in central and eastern
states. Some storm formation in east
gulf, but cold wave is likely' to keep it out.
Waco, Texas, wires. "Cotton fields in
central Texas spotted in many sections,
particularly in Ellis. Hild and McLellan
counties. Extremely light top crop is
present prospect for that section. Farm
ers selling fast as crop is ginned. Com
presses in north and central Texas con
gested; look for heavier receipts at Gal

A light frost prevailed at Amarillo,
Texas, last night The temperature stood
at 38: no other frost reported in Texas.
Kallas. Texas, temperature was 46.
I’arty in Hobart, Okla., wires: “Heavy
frost in bottoms; light frost uplands;
some ice over western Oklahoma.”
The New Orleans Times-Democrat says:
Both factions continue drawing cold com
fort only from file cotton market. At the
moment JJie weather is working against
the big crop people, while all along thus
iar ibis season restricted demand from
spinners has been working against (lie
high price folk In the broader aspect the
general situation does not seem to be
undergoing any potential change, unless
frosts are to cyrtall the yield, but in Ihe
immediate aspect the ramifications of a
rather complicated environment are con
stantly shifting.
Yesterday's promise of frosi in portions
of Oklahoma. Arkansas and Texas, it is
reasonable to suppose, brings the crop
nearer the date of killing frost, particu
larly so since the cold snap waves are
coming with striking frequency. It would
be folly to assume that an early killing
irost would not curtail the yield ip Okla
| homa. Arkansas and Texas, at least to
I some extent. Even now some spot people
'in Oklahoma express concern in this con
nection. On the other hand, port stocks
are piling up with startling rapidity and

STOCKS AT CLOSE
Market Steadies on Lack of
Sufficient Supply of Money,
Postponing Manipulation.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK, Sept. 26 Although first
prices were generally above last night’s
close, a selling movement developed im
mediately after the opening of the stock
exchange today, which in some instances
turned the advances into losses.
Much of the selling was said to repre
sent profit-taking. United States Steel
common, after beginning % higher, lost
*4. Amalgamated Copper was % higher at
the start, but this gain was later reduced
to *»c. Canadian Pacific made about the
best Initial spurt, rising a full point, but
within fifteen minutes It had lost %.
American Smelting was ,% up and fluc
tuated around that price. Southern Pa
cific was % higher at the commence
meht, but slumped. Baltimore and Ohio
was % higher, but later lost it.
Traders were of the opinion that the
rise in call money rates was chiefly re
sponsible tor the bearish trend
The curb market w r as steady
Americans in London were firm
Price movements in the late forenoon
were Irregular. A number of the leading
railroads and industrials ware under
pressure and sustained fractional losses.
A few of the copper shares were under
pressure
The stock market closed heavy, gov
ernments unchanged: other bonds steady.

Oats wer off %o%c in sympathy with
wheat and hog products were fractionally

Wheat closed about %c lower, which
was about %c better than the low point
for the day. A slow milling demand in
the winter wheat markets and bearish
foreign advices were the main weakening
factors Absence of export demand and
favorably weather helped A rally oc

Provisions were inclined to follow grain.
The January products were firmer because

Liberal receitps of cattle in yards this
week. Several loads of Tennessee cattle,
with better per cent of heavy steers in
| good flesh, which were sold promptly at
prices about equal to quotations of week
ago. However, owing to the heavy re
ceipts. cattle in middle class sold off a
fraction and the market Is quoted barely
steady with a weaker undertone on me
dium grades and 10c to 25c lower on the
common kinds.
Feeding steers will begin to move free
ly after another week and larger re
ceipts are expected of good butchr steers
which will be considered too fat for the
average feeder to begin on.
Cow stuff 1s plentiful, local shoppers be
ing able to fully meet the market re
quirements.
Sheep and lambs with quality are in
good demand, mixed ami common lower
and are slow sale at lower prices
Hog receipts moderate. Market steady.
If what you have for sale is not worth
the price of a Want Ad in The Georgian
