SLEUTH’S BULLET
NIPS NEW PLOT TO
UNSEAT MADERO
DOUGLAS, ARIZ., Nov. 29.—A
wholesale revolutionary plot to throw
armed Mexican troops across the bor
der from the United States was un
earthed here today, following a confes
sion by one of the conspirators, John
Stephens, a half-breed, who was jailed
in Agua Prieta, just over the border,
after being shot by Mexican secret
service agents last night.
The new rebellion was fomented in
favor of J. Flores Magon, ex-minister
of public instruction for Mexico.
According to Stephens' confession,
150 Mexicans have been armed here
and were waiting a signal to fall upon
Agua'Prieta simultaneously with other
attacks upon Mexican border towns.
Stephens was making a reconnois
sance of the Agua Prieta defenses when
he was shot by secret service agents
who had trailed him from El Paso.
General Ogeda, Mexican commander
in Agua Prieta, and Senor Cuesta, Mex
ican consul here, are investigating the
plot.

Waukegan before lifesavers could reach
her.
The Rose Simmons sailed from Con
stance. Mich., with a load of Christmas
trees for Chicago one week before
Thanksgiving day. The time for the
trip is generally 48 hours. Captain
Schulemann, master of the missing
boat, has been on the lake for 30 years.

Arrangements For Conference
Here December 10 and 11
Are Completed.
Tentative arrangements for the Pan
ama canal conference which will be
held in Atlanta on December 10 and 11
were this morning at the Cham
ber of Commerce by the committee on
arrangements.
General R. K. Evans, commander of
the Department of the Gulf; St. Elmo
Massengale, chairman of the commit
tee of arrangements, and Wilmer Moore,
president of the Atlanta Chamber of
Commerce, will go to Washington Sun
day to solicit the attendance of a num
ber of ambassadors and ministers from
South American countries.
More than 200 of the most prominent
commercial men of the country have
accepted the invitation to attend the
conference and a general interest in
the meeting is being manifested over
the whole of the United States.
John Barrett, director general of the i
Pan-American union, will be the only
man invited who will be expected to de
liver a prepared speech. Many other
speeches will be made, but all will be
short and impromptu. Four meetings
will be held, two each day, and each
meeting will be divided into sections.
W. W. Finley, president of the South
ern railroad will be in charge of the
railroad section; W. A. Erwin, secre
tary and treasurer of the Erwin Cotton
mills, of Durham, N. C„ will head the
cotton dealers' section; Gunby Jordan
will be in charge of the manufacturers’
section; J. W. Porch, president of the
Pan-American railroad and steamship ■
lines, will head the steamshipmen; Wil- ’
mer Moore, president of the Atlanta .
Chamber of Commerce, will be in
charge of the commercial section; E. J. ,
Watson, commissioner of agriculture ;
and immigration, of South Carolina, '
will head the agricultural interests, and
K. Fukushima wtll deliver a special
speech on the Orient.
Because those who will attend are
middle-aged and like to get to bed
early the Chamber of Commerce has
decided to have a reception instead of a
banquet for the delegates. Secretary '
Walter Cooper made this point and it
was accepted readily. The reception
will be held at the Capital City club.
GENUINE FOOTBALL
DOPESTERS AT BAR
OF FEDERAL COURT
The morning session of the I nited ;
States court had been closed and sev- ■
eral attorneys were gathered about
Judge W. T. Newman's desk. The five
put their heads together and a con- <
ference was begun which lasted for
some time. Every one in the court
room remained at attention, for it
seemed certain that such a gathering
of legal lights meant something un- (
usual. 1
A young lawyer on one side grew (
somewhat excited. He was about to be '
admitted to practice in the United i
States court.
■TH bet they are 'discussing the next ,
president's attitude toward the supreme i
court,” he confided. ,
just then Judge Newman's voice rose i
above the steady hum at the desk. (
■■Well, Auburn tied Vanderbilt, and s
Vanderbilt beat Georgia 46 to 0, yet ,
Georgia beat Auburn 12 to 6." he said. ,
Three minutes later every man in the t
room was gathered about the judge's (
stand discussing football. (

COTTONWEAKENS
IN LATE TRADING
Week-fnd Statistics Stimulate
Market After Erratic Move
ment and Profit Taking.
i, NEW YORK. Nov. 29.—The cotton mar
ket here opened barely steady today, with
nrst prices showing irregularity, ranging
from unchanged to 7 points lower to 7
points higher than the final of Wednes-
, Th® buying wa? general, coming
chiefly from large spot Interests, while
the selling was scattered. Today being
first notice day for December, it brought
° ut considerable outside buying. After
the cad, the market was steady, with near
positions a net advance of 6 to 10 points
from the early range.
Futures in Liverpool steady; spots dull,
with prices firm.
E ,ur mg the forenoon trading the mar
ket was steady, with very little cotton
Jbf sa ' e , —only profit-taking by longs,
lhe bull leaders seemed to await the
opportunity to buy, but cotton was sold
? n lx in limited lots. December rallied
J® 12.77, January 12.89, March 12.98 and
May 12.89. The market was rendered
support from all sources. The Waldorf
crowd and larger spot interests were
heavy buyers. Reports from Texas and
from the eastern belt were very bullish
regarding the spot situation; also Mem
phis and other portions of the belt stated
most of the fields were bare of cotton.
This had a stimulating effect and will
cause lower crop estimates.
The general feeling among local oper
ators and the speculator is optimistic,
which is likely to result in better spec
ulative buying and put the market higher.
Many anticipated week-end statistics
would be bullish, between 642,000 to 652,-
000 bales for the info-sight week, against
837,480 to 549,354 last year.
Prices were held firm during the late
trading, ranging only a few points below
the highest levels for the day.
At the close the market was steady with
prices showing irregularity, being un
changed to 4 points lower to 11 points
higher than the final quotations of Wed
nesday.

HAYWARD &. CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 29.—Liverpool
futures held steady over our. holiday, al
though the volume of spot business
dropped to 6.000 bales yesterday and 5,000
today. A cable, said; .’'Spot interests
heavy sellers; willing to leave supply to
be nursed by outside speculation; South
offering more; break quite posible.”
New York likewise reported extensive
realizing by the spot interests, while sup
port in the contract market came largely
from outside interests. The market this
morning opened at about unchanged fig
ures, and, while quiet, ruled very steady.
Bullish consumption statistics are expect
ed to be shown in the afternoon visible
supply statement.
The Times-Democrat’s crop estimate
will appear Monday, and is general!}- ex
pected to be bullish. Political news this
morning was considered more reassuring,
which helped confidence on the bull side
of the market.
Liverpool cabled: “American crop
about 14,000,000 bales. Egyptian similar
to 1911; Indian about 300,000 bales more.
Remain bullish on legitimate supply; de
mand enopmous."
The market ruled extremely strong
during the remainder of the morning ses
sion. The leading interests realized free
ly, but all selling was readily absorbed.
March here advanced to 12.96. Opinion
of higher values for cotton —either volun
tarily' developed or educated—is holding
the field. Spots while not in rushing de
mand are very firm in respect to price,
with holders showing remarkable inde
pendence and confidence.
In the contract markets, bearish op
position is as nominal now as it perhaps
lias ever been.

CHICAGO, Nov. 29.—The local crcwd
in wheat refused to take any stock in
the reports from Argentina of the rain
damaging the wheat that is now about
ready for the reaper. The fact that Liv
erpool wheat was up I%d to I%d early
and that it was only %d to %d higher
at 3:18, caused genera! and heavy selling
by both iongs and shorts, and the con
seqeunt break from the closing of Wed
nesday of %c. Northwestern receipts
were enormous, but the Argentine ship
ments were smaller than comparative pe
riods.
Corn was off %c to %c in sympathy
with wheat, coupled with the fact that
advices are of larger shipments.
Closing prices for the day showed
wheat % to %c lower, and had it not
been for additional war talk as the day
wore away still lower prices would have >
been recorded. The market looked like a
“bull combination” affair, as resting
orders on the buying side were held in
the pit at 90c for May during the greater
part of tlie session and on the advance
the professionals were tilled up by those
who bought <m the weak spots.
Corn closed unchanged to %c higher
and oats were % to %c lower.
Provisions closed with losses of 2% to
7%c.
Cash transactions were: Wheat, 60,000
bushels; corn. 120,000; oats, 325.000. of
which 100,000 bushels were for export.
