THE ATLANTA GEOIMUAN AM) NEWS. EK1.HAY, MAY 0, 1913. » SHRINERS OFF FO DALLAS 10 Yaarab Temple Boosters, 200 Strong, Leave Friday Night for Conven tion-—Confident of Success. I want to again express my appreciation for the assistance of Mr. Hearst and his newspapers throughout the country. If Atlanta gets the 1914 meeting Mr. Hearst and his papers will be largely responsible.—POTENTATE FORREST ADAIR. ' ‘ The Imperial Council will sonally I have no doubt of it. Memphis has not. and we have ma a fund of $76,000 in one day that about. “And we leave to-night for Dal-1 las bettor equipped to extend an .invitation of this kind than any city or Temple that has extended a like invitation in a great num ber of years. ’ ’ With this statement Forrest Adair, potentate of Yaarab Temple, an nounced Friday morning that every j derail of the pilgrimage to the con vention of the Imperial Council of ; Shriners at Dallas, Tex., was com- i plete and Atlanta’s delegation, nearly I 200 strong, would leave in a special train over the Southern Railway at 10 o’clock Friday night. Reach Dallas Sunday. Early Sunday morning the Atlanta pilgrims will have crossed the hot sands and entered the Oasis of Dallas. They will go into the city with their coats on their arms, prepared to j drown out any discordant note, from Memphis, or anywhere for that mat ter, with the now r familiar slogan: “Atlanta, 1914.” At Birmingham. Meridian, Shreve port and a score of points along the line, Atlanta boosters will hoard the train, and go with the delegation to Dallas to swell the total and bring tlo c onvention to the Southeast next Mr. Adair and his official delega- iion, YY A. Foster, John A. Hynds and Claude H. Hutcheson, of Jones boro, will extend the invitation. They will be fortified with official invitations from the Mayor and City Council and every trades organiza tion in the city, as well as open con tracts from every hotel in Atlanta, assuring accommodations for as many as 4,000 Shriners, the number ex pected here next year. No “Holdup” in Rates. The beauty of the hotel contracts, as explained by Mr. Adair, is . that ■“inauguration rates” will not be charged. “Only the regular rates." said Mr. meet in Atlanta in 1914. Per- We have hotel accommodations; de a remarkable record in raising every Shriner in America knows Adair, “will be in force, and I have with the contracts q, diagram of the floor space indicating the room and the regular rate. They won’t be able to go above the rate, even if the hotel men felt Inclined to. “Memphis will not get the conven tion, because it hasn’t got the hotels «ind the Shriners know it,” said Mr. Adair. “They’re building one now', but it won’t compare with any of *he nicer hotels already completed in Atlanta, and as for the best hotels there—Atlanta’s got better on the side streets. This alone makes it doubly sure we’ll get the convention, but tf there’s any doubt the size of our delegation removes it.” The Arab Patrol of Yaarab Temple, the crack drum corps. 40 strong, will be a valuable asset of the Atlanta del egation. It is an independent organ ization formed by the temple for con vention work and occasions that de mand public appearance. It has a*- tracted much attention at convention* throughout the country.

T II GREAT STRAIN Loans Heavy—New Securities a Drain—Gold Shipments From New York to Paris Deplored. BY W. R. LAWSON. Special Cable to The American. LONDON, May 9.—Serious bank ers do not look with favor upon the renewal of gold shipments from New York to Paris.

Lombard Street is enjoying tem porary ease owing to end-of-the- month borrowing from the Bank -of England, but large repayments w'ili have to be jpiade within the next ffcw days. Further reduction in the English bank rate is not expected immedi ately. The Berlin rate is hardening, and if Boerse speculation breaks loose again, easy money may be a re mote possibility. Hitherto, while the war was in progress European slocks have been upheld by finance houses for tin purpose of facilitating big loan is sues which they were preparing lo make later. American Stocks Firmer. Between September, 1912, and t*he end of April. 1913, declines in Euro pean stocks have generally been very trifling, while American stocks suf fered heavy declines.
