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.

U 11l HEWS TO MIL MEETING —” —... _ 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.

NOVEMBER 29, 1912 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. HANGE IN NEW YORK FUTURES.

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.

Wheat—No. 2 red 10& @107% t'orn 45%@ 46 Oats 32 @ 32% 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. CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET. Grain quotations: Previous Open. High. Low. Close. Close.
