THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. COTTON. HAYWARD & CLARK’S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. April LI. There were no developments or particular in fluence on the market over Sunday. Liverpool was weaker than due by 2 points and spots o points lower. After opening a few points lower, the market rallied promptly to 12.lt for •July and to 11.2< for October and was remarkably well supported, probably In consequence of New Yprk news that the bullish spot interests were absorbing all offerings of July, suggesting the idea that strong people are buying at this level. Spots arc not encouraging. Demand is small ami spot quotations at leading interior markets on Saturday afternoon showed easiness.

FLORIDA CITRUS GROWERS JOIN TO FIGHT TARIFF TAMPA, FLA., April 21—Growers and shippers of citrus fruit have formed the Florida Citrus League to fight the pro posed reduction in the tariff on lemons and oranges from 1% to % cent a pound. The new organization starts off with 85 per cent of Florida interests indentirted with citrus fruits pledged to support it. It will co-operate with the California Citrus League and fight to the last detail the proposed lower tariff. The estimated production of Florida citrus fruits this year is between 4.- 600,000 an*: 6,000.000 boxes. It is stated that California’s production amounted to 12,000,000 boxes, of which .30 per cent were rendered unmarketable because of the January freeze. The proposed re duction in tariff, declared W. C. Tem ple, manager if the Florida Citrus Ex change, will allow keen competition from Sicily and Murcia and other Mediterranean poims. Mr. Temple in a wire to the Ways and Means Committee in Washington states that the proposed reduction will, if put through, prove the destruction of the orange industry in this country.
