Glff MIN! I LEHffllffl Negro Who Tried to Effect Wholesale Escape Given Extra Thirty Days. Thirty days additional time was the penalty rnetd today by Recorder Broyles to George Smith, a giant ne •uo convict, who yesterday afternoon mutinied in the city stockade, attempt 'd to effect a wholesale escape, and, when detected, defied .he guards. With a.pick with which he was at work, the negro severed the shackles •.bout his own ankles, and had the ■hackles almost off another convict then he was detected by Guard E. A. Mullinn. The guard ordered the negro to go to the blacksmith shop and have ais legs reshackled, but he refused. Not wanting to shoot the convict, Mullins summoned the blacksmith, leaving J. (’. Stubbs, another employee, to guard the negro with a pistol. While Mullins was seeking the black smith, the big convict ridiculed Stubbs, •ursed him and threatened to take his pistol. "Don't get too gay with that gun, or 111 take it away from you and give you good beating,” he exclaimed derisive ly as he defied Stubbs to shoot him. The latter kept the negro coveted, and told him he would blow out his brains if he made a move. When the blacksmith arrived. Smith made no further attempt at violence md was manacled heavily. RECORDS DEMANDED BY V. S. IN HARVESTER TRUST SUIT MISSING CHICAGO, Nov. '27.—Edwin D. Grosvenor, government prosecutor in the suit of the government being heard here to dissolve the International Har vester Company, today made strenuous efforts to obtain certain sales reports of that company. The first witnes called was E. P. Wood, secretary of the sales department of the company. Mr. Wood declared that he was unable to find the eports asked for by the government. In response to searching questions, he denied having given any orders to de stroy any papers taken from the files of the alleged Harvester trust. He was asked the direct question as to whether or not any such reports had been de stroyed, and replied that he knew noth ing about it. Mr. Wood was ordered to continue Ills search for the missing papers. William Gale, assistant secretary of the selling organization, testified that iie had been unable to find any re ports of the twine and liber committee, vhich he had been ordered to produce. If* also was ordered to continue the sea roll. R. C. Haskins was next called, and denied any knowledge of the sales re ports which were so much desired. WAR ON WASTE PAPER AS FIRE MENACE BEGUN Merchants and manufacturers who have been in the habit of allowing their waste paper and packing from boxes to be scattered over basements had better be careful in the future. Eire Inspector Gattis has started his annual winter crusade against such careless ness and his first case for the fall of 1912 wa made today. D. B. Carson, agent for the Western md Atlantic railroad, was the first of ■ nder to be caught by Inspector Oattis, who declared that (’arson had allowed the employees of the road to pile straw, vaste paper and packing on the rail oad floor of t,he Steiner-Emery build ing. just above the Whitehall street viaduct. The Y. W. C. A. has its headquarters in this building, as have other organizations.

CLEMENCY SOUGHT FOR YOUNG CONVICT FROM STATESBORO Application for executive clemency In behalf of John Searsboro, 19 years old. sent up for burglary front States boro two years ago, was made before Governor Brown today. Young Searsboro’s application is in dorsed by many leading citizen's of Statesboro, and his sister, Mrs. T. L. Zetterrower, appeared in person before the governor today, witli the prisoner’s lawyer, Colonel Jule Anderson, of Statesboro, to plead the ease. The prison commission has recom mended a pardon, because the prisoner has been well behaved, is extremely youthful, and was led into the crime by an older man. The governor has not indicated his intentions, but the impression is that a parole, rather than a full pardon, will be issued, if clemency in any form is extended. AMBASSADOR FROM BRAZIL TO WED U. S. MERCHANT’S WIDOW NEW YORK. Nov. 27.—Two mar riage licenses, one calling for a civil 1 ceremony and the other for a religious ; ceremony, were issued this afternoon to Dominica DaGama, Brazilian ambas sador to the United States, and Mrs. Elizabeth Bell Heart;, who will be mar ried tonight at the residence of Judge E. H. Gary. The Rev. Percy Stickney Grant and Mayor Gaynor will perform the cere monies. The bride-to-be is the widow of Ar thur Hearn, founder of the Hearn stores here.

He said: ’ Last year our estimate was 15,800,- 000 bales, minimum, and we said that the crop would exceed these figures. We now say 13,600.000 bales, maximum, commercial crop, and believe it will be under this.” Mr. Newburger says this is the most disappointing crop ever known. The following shows his estimate by states: Alabama. 1,250,000; Arkansas, 850,- 000; Florida. 60,000; Georgia. 1,750.000; Louisiana. 415000; Mississippi, 1,075,- 000; Oklahoma. 1.100,000; South Caro lina, 1,200,000: North Carolina, 875,000; Tennessee, 275.000; Texas, 4,650.000; various. 100,000.

EXCHANGES TO CLOSE. Tomorrow being Thanksgiving ilaj. all i the American exchanges will he closed to business, reopening rriday morning for usual business. The Liverpool cotton exchange will re main open lor its usual session. NEW Y’ORK, Nov. 27. Heavy buying j orders from the larger spot interests and ) other big professionals resulted in the cotton market opening stead} tos!aj, i prb’es showing a net gain of 5 to ;IX points from the final <»F Tuesday. ; New high h'vels were recorded in every t option on the list. The phenomenal ’ strength in Liverpool cables was used i las the principal factor for the steady : ; market here. Shorts covering helped the i : advance. After the call: prices showed a j further advance of 5 to b points in most active months from the initial quota- ' lions. A wave of heavy selling predominated I over the market during the earlv fore- i noon trading, which was said to be scat- | tered Lmgs taking profit. This caused a : sagging tendency In the market and De- t •‘umber decline to 12.59; .January to 12.C8 ' and March to 12.71. One large house was I said to have sold fully 50,000 bales, while other operators who have been bullish I were noticeable sellers. However, the market absorbed the offerings remarkably well and prices were firmly maintained around the initial figures during the aft ernoon session. Spot interests continued aggressive. A big broker was report cd a good buyer, which was said to be for foreign account. Mr. Joseph Newburger, of Mem phis, was out with a bullish crop esti mate of 13,60V,000 bales. This stimulated the market to some extent. The bull leaders are advising their friends to buy cotton, as crop estimates are being low- I ered and the spot demand continues good. Shorts covered today on fear of running their lines over the holiday tomorrow, and prices during the late trading re gained the early decline, establishing new high levels for the season. At the close the market was steady with prices showing a .net gain of 1.367 15 points, with the exception of September, which I closed 3 points off and October unchanged ! from the final quotations of Tuesday.
