HOMESEEKERS Bi
HUNDRELARRIVE
Annual Influx From the North
td South Georgia and State
of Florida Is On.
Home seekers by the hundreds are
turning this month from the cold
Northwest to the milder climate of
south Georgia and Florida. a territory
which is receiving a large share of the
"back to the farm" movement this year.
Railroad men sail this season will bring
15,000 home seekers and home buyers
to the Southeast, and that the wide
advertising recently given Georgia and
Florida farm lands is reaping a har
vest of results.
Two special trains over the Southern
railway carried 500 prospective home
builders through Atlanta last night on
their way to points farther south, and
another train will carry 250 more to
night.
The 500 came from middle Western
pouts and carried return trip tickets,
although they probably will stay where
they land. They are sent South by
land agents with offices in St. Louis,
Cincinnati, Detroit, Chicago and other
cities.
A railroad official declared today that
the population of the state of Florida
had been doubled in the last six years
largely through the acquisition of home
seekers who were not satisfied to live
in colder climates ar.d under more rigid
economic conditions. The trend south
ward is greatest in the early winter,
when the immigrants’ crops are in.
South Georgia has gained a big increase
in population in this way. In some in
stances dishonest land agents have
preyed upon the unsuspecting by sell
ing them land under water and other
wise unlit. A congressional investiga
tion, it will be remembered, was or
dered.

Southern Woman Tries
To Commit Suicide in
Her Home in New York
Mrs. Louise Newell Formerly Miss
Louise Amory, of- Chatta
nooga, at Point of eDath.
NEW YORK. Nov. 7.—Mrs. Louise New
ell. wife of Edward Newell, resident man
ager for the Birmingham Rail and Lo
comotive Company, attempted suicide in
her apartment in the Palisade Court, No.
601 West One Hundred and Thirty-ninth
street.
Mrs. Newell was found in the bathroom
with her throat cut. her windpipe severed,
her wrist gashed and the gas jets in the
bathroom and the kitchen turned on full.
She was rushed to J. Hood Wright hos
pital. If she lives her life will have been
saved by the quick work of the surgeons
called to the apartment.
Mr. Newell said that his wife had been
feeling depressed for a week, but save a
headache she had not buffered any. They
attended an organ recital yesterday, and
she appeared much better this morning
when he went to his offices in the Coffee
Exchange building.
From friends it was learned that .Mrs.
Newell, who is a handsome little woman
about 30 years old, was Miss Louise Am
ory. of Chattanooga. Tenn., and was mar
ried ten years ago. The couple came to
New York four years ago and had lived
at the present address for a year.
At the hospital it was said that there
was only the slightest chance of Mrs.
Newell's recovery. Considering the na
ture of her injuries it was said she had
shown wonderful vitality, which might
yet save her life.

SPINNERS BUYING
BOOSTS COTTON
Enormous Spot Demand and
Small Receipts Cause Jump
in Price of Staple.
NEW \ u'KK. Nov. 7.—ln the face of
firm cables, the cotton market opened
barely steady, with prices ranging from
unchanged to 11 points lower than the
final of Wednesday. Trading was verv
narrow during the first fifteen minutes
and prices sagged about the opening quo
tation. After the call a tendency pre
vailed among commission houses to liqui
date, and as the buying was scattered,
coming chiefly from spot people, prices
receded 4 to 7 points below the first fig
ures.
Later during the-early trading the mar
ket developed a steady tone on the ex
cessive rains in the eastern belt, which
was regarded as unfavorable by crop
students, hut the most potent factor
used in strengthening the market was
she report that Pell & Co. would issue a
bullish bulletin this afternoon on the
crop. This caused quick buying from
many different sources, with the demand
heavy. The free selling checked and be
came steady and during the late fore
noon trading prices were 1.0 to 12 points
better than last night’s close.
, Continuous buying by the larger spot
interests, based on better conditions
abroad an<l confidence expressed in the
new administration, combined' with lower
estimates bn the crop, resulted in a fur
ther upturn, with March leading and ad
vancing to 11.99, a net gain of 22 points
from the opening, with other near months
scoring about the equal amount from the
opening. All distant' positions crossed
the 12c level.
At the close the market was verv steady
with a net gain tn prices 5 to 13 points
from the final quotations of Wednesday.

HAYWARD <S. CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 7.—While Louis
iana and the western states has fair
weather there were general rains In Mis
sissippi and the eastern states, heavy at
many points which, following thfe recent
freeze, will increase the damage. Indi
cations are for better conditions. Gener
ally clearing weather, except further rains
today in North Carolina. Liverpool shows
the full advance due, but quotes spots 1
point lower. A cable reports large spin
ners’ demand and restricted offerings.
There were several features today to fur
ther encourage bullish action. The bad
weather over the eastern half of the belt;
prospects for very bullish comparisons of
mill takings in tomorrow's visible supply
statement, was the strength of Liverpool.
New York, however, opened easier and
ruled easy during the first hour, which
caused a decline of 8 points. The census
report, which will be published tomorrow
at 9 a. m., our time, is generally expected
to be around 8,900.000 and will hardly
have much effect unless it should be much
below the expected figure. The into-slght
for the week looks around 648,000 bales.

NEWS AND GOSSIP
Os the Fleecy Staple
NEW YORK, Nov. 7.-N. L. Carpenter
& Co.: The selling early today came
from "ommlssion houses, and ring spec
ulators and others playing for a reac
tion, this caused a local short interest,
while a little buying by the large spot
interest caused uneasiness, starting a
wave of short covering. The advance
was quick and the market remained very
steady during the entire session.
The buying was said to be on better
conditions abroad and excessive rains in
the eastern belt and confidence in elec
tion.
Tomorrow the census bureau will issfue
a special report on the ginned bales up to
November 1. This report will compare
with 6,838,841 bales in the last bureau
report as of October 18, against 9,698.172
bales on the same date last year
Dallas wires: “Texas Generally clear
and colder; no frost reported. Oklahoma
-Generally clear and cold; frost at ('han
dler, strong and Bristow."
Tiie market was sgld today on and after
opening by commission houses, ring specu
lators and reactionists. The larger spot
interest caused advance later and brought,
about a wave of short covering.
The consensus of opinion is that market
should have reaction. Altll demand con

morning.
The New Orleans Tiine.s-DemocraCs
summary: Conservative expressions by
President-elect Wilson regarding the pol
icy of the new administration, coupled
with reports of bad weather from some
sections of the belt, some additional
small crop estimates, and the force gen
erated by success, sustained the bullish
'tone in the cotton market in spite of the
fact that Europe is withdrawing because
of the high basis demanded. In connec
tion with the latter phase of the market,
reports to the effect that the interior
now speculating rather heavily in the ac
tual stuff strikes the looker-on as signifi
cant, but under the influence of stead
ily advancing markets, bulls did not rip
pear to attach any importance to such
reports yesterday.
Meanwhile, the fact that for the second
time in 1912 cotton values have advanced
radically at a time when bearish influences
seemed paramount has greatlv weakened
the fighting strength of the 'bear party,
bn, it has not blinded the low-price peo
ple to the logic of reactions. The trou
ble here lies in the fact that the prac
tice of the market has been at variance
with time-honored theory ever since the
farmer gained his emancipation front the
advancing merchant.

STOCK MARKET
Profit-Taking on Yesterday’s
Advance Checks Upward
Movement.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW Y'IRK, Nov. 7. Buying of Amer
ican stocks abroad caused general price
advances at the exchange today. Tiie
buying movement was attributed both to
the election results and to private advices,
which minimize. l the posslbiltv of a Eu
ropean conflict over the Balkan war
Rock Island common made tiie biggest
«n- vanie ' l? a ‘ nil| K points and going to
: 0%. Buying of this issue was exception
ally heavy. Southern railroad moved up
1 point to 141. Missouri Pacific ad
vanced % to 45 and St. Paul made a
s.mjlai gain. Among the other advances
were United States Steel common %,
American Smelting % and Baltimore and
Ohio %, Southern railway %. Canadian
Pacific %. i’nion Pacific %, Lehigh Valley
%. Reading %. Canadian Pacific opened
fractionally lower, but Immediately recov
ered ami begun to gain, going to 267%.
The copper group showed exceptional
strength, Anaconda moving up % to 45.
American fan was another firm issue.
Westinghouse moved up %. while Pitts
burg Coal rose %. Other issues in which
fractional gains occurred were, in Amer
ican Ice and Interboro .Metropolitan.
'The curb market was firm.
•Americans in London were strong on
repurchasing, especially I'nlted States
Steel. Mexicans were also bought vigor
ously in London.
In the late forenoon many profit-taking
sales were made and the leading issues
declined fractionally under this pressure.
Steel common was heavy, declining % to
78, and similar recessions were noted in
Copper, Smelting, Reading, St. Paul and
Lehigh Valley.
There was considerable realizing in the
last hour. However, there was a fairly
good demand at concessions, but the buy
ing was at no time aggrdksive and was
more of an accumulative character than
has been seen for some weeks. A num
ber of foreign houses bought, taking a
volume of stocks when lower levels were
reached. It is estimated that these
houses took 50,000 shares during tiie day.
There were some wide movements in spe
cialties. American Cotton Gil being Influ
enced by further deferment of dividends
Sears Roebuck was strong
The market closed unsettled. Govern
ments unchanged; other bonds steady.

Wheat—No. 2 red 103%
Oats 33
CHICAGO, Nov. 7.—There were losses
of % to %<; in wheat this morning on the
big Northwestern receipts and the fact
that tiie international review on that grain
1 construed by the traders as a bear
-1 isrr document. Minneapolis stocks have
increased over 1.000,000 bushels for five
days and this alone was enough to drive
'YT-’. ne out of their positions.
Winnipeg receipts were greatly in excess
ot a week ago. but a little smaller than 11
year ago. Liverpool was higher on the
suialler offerings by Russia. A special
cable from there, however, reported Can
ada as a freer seller. There was a lower
Paris market on the pressure in the con*
tinental market to sell home wheat.
Corn was % to %c lower on pressure to
sell because of improved weather and the ,
likelihood of a freer movement. Liver- /
pool reports shorts as covering there on
the forecast of lighter shipments by the
Southern hemisphere.
Oats were % to %c lower and dull in
sympathy with the other markets.
The advance of 10c in the price of hogs
at the yards caused good buying in the
pit and prices were 7% to 10c higher.
Wheat closed at the lowest levels of the
day and showed net losses of %®’sc.
Many speculators who were buyers early
in the session threw over their lines late
and took losses. Kansas City reported
export bids as reduced and the cash mar
ket thpre at a standstill. Winnipeg ad
vances told of the buying there of 500.000
buAels wheat which was supposed to be
against the export sales of 450,000 bush
els’on Wednesday. Primary receipts of
wheat today 1,668,000 bushels, against
946.000 a year ago. Cash sales here were
only 17,000 bushels wheat and the trade
expects 131 cars here tomorrow
Corn closed %c to %c lower and was
under great selling pressure by some ot
the big bears.
Oats were unchanged to %42%c lower.
Cash sales of corn were 180,000 bushels
and oats 307,000, with part of the latter
for export.
Hug products wore fractionally higher,
but the close was tame.

BEARS ABSORB WHEAT
CHICAGO, Nov. 7.—The inter-Ocean
says:
"Hears in wheat have been the best
buyers and there was a little buying by
th" bull interests. One of the largest
traders said he thought there had been
break enough for the time being, and
that further rally was due. The weak
holders have been shaken out. and witli
most of the large bears in on their short
wheat they think that the technical sit
uation in the markets favors reactions
after every good bulge. A few of the
big commission houses which have been
bearish on corn say they do not care to
follow the decline any further at pres
ent. One of the largest traders said
that the December is a weather proposi
tion, as it will govern tiie movement.”
