COUNCIL STAVES OFF
MONUMENT REMOVAL
BY REFUSING PERMIT
MACON, GA., Dec. 12.—8 y refusing
to give the receiver of the Marietta
Marble and Granite Company permis
sion to work in a city park, the city
council is seeking to save the monu
ment to the "Women of the South,’’
which was unveiled here two years ago
by the veterans and Daughters of the
Confederacy with much ceremony.
The shaft was purchased by the vet
erans, but has never been fully paid for.
Ihe veterans presented the monument
to the Daughters of the Confederacy,
and they in turn gave it to the city,
which erected it in the park in front of
the city hall.
The receiver for the marble company
wants to dismantle the monument be
cause of the unpaid indebtedness, but is
prevented by reason of not having the
city s consent to work in a city park.
Members of council openly stated in
meeting that they would never willing
ly-give the permission, and referred the
request to a committee, with the re
quest that action be delayed on it as
long as possible.
The local attorney for the receiver of
the marble company states that a man
damus will probably be sought against
the city to force it to allow the dis
mantling of the monument.

"There Is a feeling of unrest among
tiie employees at the stockyards and
the steel mills here,” said Haywood
"We are going io try to crystallize that
sentiment into the biggest strike we
have yet attempted. I came here be
cause I have learned that Chicago, the
greatest industrial center of tiie world,
is In neid of our organization and
methods.
"Workmen here need better working
conditions and better nav. principally
the former. We are going to get it for
them, And our way of getting it us
ually means a desperate strike. And it
also means victory for us in the end,
no matter what the cost.
“We already have several locals at
the stockyards.- It will be an easy
matter to organize more. There will be
no demand for a closed shop or de

better working conditions.”

Early Market Stagnant. But
/ Heavy Selling Prevails on Is
suance of Report.
X’EM YORK, Dec. 12.—Firmness in ca
bles caused the cotton market here to
open steady, with prices net unchanged to
”, points higher than last night's close:
Trading was small, with a disposition
among traders to await the publication
01 the government crop estimate, which
will be made public at 1 p. m. After
the call, the market was barely steady.
The ring sold, but their sales were lim
ited. The larger spot offerings were,
quickly absorbed, most of It being taken
by larger spot .interests. I’rices later
eased off 1 to 4 points from the opening
quotations.
Renewed buying of larger spot people
and a wave of short covering during
the late forenoon trading resulted in a
quick advance Prices rallied 5 to 7
points over the first figures. Trading
was light at the initial trading of the aft
ernoon sesSicn, but the market was sup
ported by the best sources and prices
firmly held at the high levels. Liverpool
exchange reopened for an extra session
after the usual closing hour to meet the
bureau report.
The issuance of the government's esti
mate was flashed at 1 p. in., placing the
figures at 13,82.0000 bales, compared with
14,885,000 last year, which was regarded
as bearish. Heavy selling predominated,
causing u rapid decline. January dropped
to 12.50. Marell to 12.58, May to 12.50 and
July to 12.51. Later an aggressive move
ment prevailed, led by spot people, which
cheeked the downward tendency, hold
ing prices at the levels stated above dur
ing the late trading.
At the close the market was steady
with prices a net gain of 7 to 14 points
from the final quotations-of Wednesday.

DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 12.—New York
professional reports say the Pell inter
ests bought at least 50,000 bales yester
day. and chat Watkins says the govern
ment estimate will be around 13.450.000.
This shows the bullish feeling prevailing
in that quarter.
Liverpool met our advance, corning In
5 points higher this morning. Spots 1
point higher. The movement allows signs
of decreasing. The into-sight figures for
tiie week looks around 572.000, against
646,721 last year. Comparisons of mill
takings tomorrow are likely to be bullish,
as we compare with takings of only 393,-
000 bales for this week last year. The
heavy exports during the past eight weeks
and consequent large stock afloat will
give large landings and takings abroad,
whereas, last year the heavy exports and
takings did not get 1n until January.
Our market opened unchanged, gained a
few points and ruled very firm. The gen
eral disposition was to buy, but the ab
sence of sellers prevented business.

NEWS AND GOSSIP
OF THE FLEECY STAPLE
! NEW YORK, Dec. 12. —N. L. Carpenter
Tate says: "Ginning last year
potter December 1 was 2.736,000 bales, ex
i elusive of linters, which amounted to 556,-
000 bales; in 1910, the ginning after De
i 1 11 exclusive of linters, was €.424,-
1000, linters about 400.000; therefore, on a
basis of the near completion of this pick
ing and ginning, the public Is expecting
a crop estimate under 14,000,000 bales.
I think the report will simply mean
the removing of one uncertainty and ob
stacle in the bull market, because with
' P,C? S >E« C 5 S world’s consumption of 14.-
. 500,000 bales of American cotton, indica
tions are that the demand for the re
mainder of the crop will be sufficient to
sustain prices and even force a general
advance -luring the winter and spring be
t*le new crop becomes a factor.
T nere is a growing feeling here that
positions have been evened up, so that if
figures are very bullish ifnd the market
snows a sudden advance, there may be a
disposition to sell It temporarily for reac
tion.
Trading was very light throughout the
morning session.
Some of the large spot houses bought
cotton freely and were the best buyers
during the entire day. There was some
local short covering. The ring crowd
seemed to be uneasy and covered.
,„/'t times the market was stagnant.
Ihe selling was little and scattered.
Gossip among the ring crowd was some
what confused. Many say the report will
show figures around 13,5W,«0u bales.
Some went as high as 14,500,000.
Dallas wires: "Texas -Generally clcudy
and cold; 18 at Amarillo; ruining at San
Autdnio, snowing at Bryan. Oklahoma
Generally clear and cold."
Following are It a. m. bids: January
12.60. March 12.68. May 12.65, July 12.65.
NEW OIH.EANS, Dec. 12.—Hayward &
Clark: The weather map shows fair in
Oklahoma, northwest Texas. Arkansas
and North Carolina. No rain in those
states; cloudy' elsewhere; general rains,
i good over south Texas. Indications are
for fair and colder in northern half of
belt; cloudy and further showers in south
ern portion; freezing probably to the
coast.
. Liverpool cables: "Look for bureau of
10,<60,000 or less.”
The New Orleans Times-Democrat says:
Smaller movement; higher and firm spot
markets and spread of belief that today’s
crop guess by the government will fall
below 14,000.000 bales, linters excluded,
sent additional shorts to cover, and
throughout the session the contract divi
sion reflected great strength.
The government w ill estimate the
growth of 1912 in 500-pound bales. The
running bale is heavier than 500 by some
27 pounds, according to Mr. Hester’s rec
ord thus far this season. Consequently,
the figures given by the department of
agriculture today will have to be reduced
by about 5 per cent in order to make the
figure read “commercial bales.” How
ever, the talent as a rule will draw no
such nice distinctions, but will ad, say.
a half million bales to the government
figures, to include linters, and then, if
the interpreter be a very large crop man.
he will add another halt million bales
because the government underestimated
last year's crop. On the other hand, the
moderate crop people, who of late have
vigorously endeavored to convince the
trade that only a scant and unimportant
remnant remains unpicked in the fields on
December 1, will claim that since the gov
ernment estimate is in 500-pound bales,
the growth, in running bales, was record
ed in smaller figures, and that any crop
under 14,750,000 bales, with consumption
running on record proportions, is bound
to constitute a bullish condition in the
cotton market.

Firm Cables and Better De
mand Result in Fractional
Gains—Oats Irregular.
CHICAGO Dec. 12.—The strength
shown in wheat this morning was mainlv
on the light offerings In the pit, as the J
demand was not of an urgent character.
Early advances were shown of % to %<
with sales of May at 89 to 89%@%, and
July tft 86% to 86%c. The market in the
old world was rather unsettled, showing
considerable strength early but weakened
later. The weather in the Argentine was
reported as unset tied* in the first cable
received, but later it was said to havu
been more favorable.
Corn was a shade lower on the excel
lent weather for shelling, and movement
and the expectation that receipts will
show marked increases. Liverpool was
easier on the American cables and reports
of a large acreage planted in Argentine.
Oats were in smaller offerings and the
demand was excellent at fractionally bet
ter prices.
Hog products were firmer, although hogs
at the yards were a shade lower.
The buying of wheat continued right up
to the close with shorts and investors
taking hoM freelj- and resting spots for
the day were % to %c higher. One of
the features of the market was the fact
that those who have been selling every
time a strong market was in evidence
were slow about putting out short lines
today.
Corn closed with advances of % to %c
and resting spots were around the best
prices reached.
Oats were %c lower to about %c high
er and hog products were fractionally bet
ter all around.
('ash sales of grain today were: Wheat,
65,000: corn, 95,000; oats, 130,000 bushels.

BREAK’IN STOCKSI CAUSES
GRAIN PRJCEDEPRESSION
CHICAGO, Dec. 12.—The Inter-Ocean
says:
“Speculators who were bullish on grain
yesterday said iWter the close that the
decline from the top prices was chiefly
due to the break in stocks. It was said
that the local professionals were well out
of their wheat, but only part of the early
buyers of corn had unloaded. It was
the belief that any improvement in the
stock market would tend to create more
confidence among holders of grain. Bears
on all grains regarded bulges as only tem
porary and said that advances should be
taken advantage of to make sales.
"Conservative commission houses ad
vise a trading position on all grains."

ON NEGRO LOCKER CLUBS
MACON, GA., Dee. 12.—City council
has been asked by a score of prominent
property owners and business firms to
refuse to renew the licenses in 1913 for
the negro locker clubs and saloons or.
Fourth street, between Mulberry and
Cherry, and it is very likely that the re
quest will be granted.
The saloons will neither be allowed in
the future on Cotton avenue, the city's
most frequented shopping thoroughfare.
It is the tendency of council to inhibit
the operation of saloons in the heart of
the commercial district or where prop
erty values may be affected.
