THE ATLANTA OEOTCfJIAN AND NEWS.
ONLY FOUR DA YS LEFT
TO ENTER GEORGIAN'S
GREAT PONY CONTEST
Four dayr remain la which contestant* ^an he nominated for The
Georgian and The American pony outfit contest. Several boys and girls
are believed to be preparing to enter at the last hour possible, and with a
considerable number of votes pledged, believing there will be some ad
vantage in taking the leaders by surprise.
This, though, is not likely to avail them much. Probably they b* -
lleve the leaders are napping, but nothing could be further from tin* truth
Besides, late entrants are losing the value of vote coupons more than fif
teen days old
Those already in the race remain closely bunched.
Miss Fannie Mae < ’ook so far has been the greatest vote producer.
She had 59 960 votes Tuesday, while Florence Greenoe in her district has
polled 40,620

ser. In District 1. has 41.620; Miss Robert Harbour, in District 2, 48,055.
Ross Greer and Mnie Brodkln. in the City Carriers’ and Newsboys’ race,
are running neck and neck with 42.145 and 41,700, respective!v
Another close contest, though the vote totals are not eo large, is the
contest for school boy* and g'.rls outside Georgia, where Lena Mae Smith,
Knoxville. Tenn. has 16,715 votes, rind Fain E Webb, Jr . 16.650.

COTTON MARKET OPINIONS.
Miller A- Co ; Opinion on Government
reports seem to have crystallized around
83 per cent, which, if June reports are
indicative of final production, should be
interpreted hearlshly.
Norden A Co.: It Is possible there
may be further selling in an attempt to
discount a good bureau report.
Stemberger. Sinn A Co.: It is still a
weather market.
New burger, Worms A Nawman: All
strong spots should he taken advantage
of to sell, especially the new crops.
Logan & Bryan: We favor sales on
any upturn from this level.

COTTON GOSSIP
ATLANTA MARKETS
PUTS COTTON OP
One Western Operator Covers
35,000 Bales on Narrow Mar
ket, Causing the Advance,
NEW Y'lKK, May 27. Poor cables,
coupled with bearish weather map, led
to active selling at the opening of the
cotton market to-dey and first prices
were 1 to 3 points lower than Monday's
final offerings were well absorbed and
soon after the call the loss was made up
During the forenoon the market was
firm and under persistent buying front
the large spot Interests shorts covered
considerable short lines McFadden,
RJordan and Parrott led the buying
movement Riordan was credited with
purchasing about 12,000 to 15.000 bales
of October and December, which was
said to be for Wall Street The charac
ter of tiie buying chased shorts to cov
er. Offerings were very light and .scat
tered. It Is believed by many that
there is still an existing short Interest
In the market.
October and December displayed ex
traordinary firmness October advanced
H points and December 9 over the ini
tial level Other positions followed the
advance moderately, advancing .3 to 7
points.
The advance came in the face of ex
tremely bearish advices from all parts
of the belt, as well as from abroad.
A cable said
"The market feels the influence of Con
tlnental buying, spinners well stocked,
and notwithstanding a fair Manchester
business w'e expect a small spot mar
ket In Liverpool for the present Think
market will be lower if crop accounts
continue favorable."
Weather developments overnight were
of the most favorable character. No
rains fell of consequence. The map
promises very favorable weather over
night: fair and warmer in the western
and central States; cloudy and probably
showers In the Carolines and East Ten
nessee warmer
During the afternoon session tiie mar
ket found good support from many con
servative sources. Offerings were ex
tremely light. On«» large Western op
erator was credited with covering about
■0 bales on a narrow market, which
caused October ajid December to ad
vance ^0 11.20. while other positions
held relatively steady, prices aggregated
■ net gain of about 8 to 13 points from
ifie opening.
The National Ginners’ Association of
Memphis in its condition and acreage
report placed the condition of the crop
t 80.7 and gave acreage an Increase of
8.2 per cent Increase. The report wjis
construed as bearish, but had practically
• effect upon the market.
The market is an evening-up affair
>ver ihe triple holiday period and the
pending government report to follow the
holidays.
At the close the market was steady
with prices at a net gain of 2 to 8 points
'mu the closing figures of Monday.

is expected to be partly unfavorable, as

NEW YORK, May 27.—Reports to the
Journal of Commerce state that the cot
ton crop is' backward in the Carolines
and about norma! in Tennessee The
acreage is slightly increased and the
stands in general are poor. Rain was
badly needed, but showers have been
general recently. Some replanting in
Tennessee with an increase in the acre
age. In North Carolina the season is
about two weeks late; prospects are
much brighter since the rains. South
Carolina condition may fall below last
year, when it was 79 Tennessee con
dition shows an increase of nearly ten
points over last year, when It was 73.5.
* * *
It is believed that a good deal of.
short cotton has been covered during
tiie past few days and a lower market
is predicted, based on favorable weather
conditions and reports which are com
ing In. Around the close yesterday Rior
dan bought about 10 000 bales of Octo
ber and December. McFadden brokers
also bought However, they sold old
crop positions.

Liverpool cables: "American mid
dling fair 7.24d: good middling 6.90d;
middling 6.70»l: low middling 6.56d; good

NEW ORLEANS. May 27. Hayward
A Clark: The weather map is very fa
vorable. Shows fair and warmer in
western portion of the Atlantics. Cloudy
and warm, in the Atlantics and Ten
nessee. No rain except in Tennessee
and parts of North Carolina, where it
will be beneficial.
The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says: "Favorable crop reports came
from maxi} quarters, and the cotton
market declined. Of course, u wave of
bearish sentiment passed ovefthe rings
and low-price people discussed the out
look for declines in more or less confi
dent tones. Ten cents for new crops
was talked of as a sure thing, nine cents
as a probability, eight cents as likely,
and, according to one lone bear, seven
cents as a possibility. All the while
the bull faction kept quiet and permit
ted the spell of depression to run its
course. At the dose underlying strength
seemed to develop, and students of the
market expressed the belief that near
future fluctuations would range within
20 points.
"The weather over Sunday was very
favorable, temperatures were higher and.
on the face of things, the crop seemed
to be in a fair way to make seasonable
progress. The man on the fence, while
admitting the presence of much more
favorable climatic condition*, was in
clined to believe that the flood of favor
able crop advices, coming right at the
close of the period on which the Gov
ernment’s condition bulletin on Juno 2
Is to be based, traces some of its in
spiration to a possible need of an offset
to any relatively low condition that
might have been reported on May 25
from the less favorable sections."

Weld makes the condition of the
crop 84.

McFadden, Parrott and Riordan were
ihe leading buyers to-day. Mohr and
Hentz probably the best sellers.

Riordan was also a big buyer of the
new crop positions for the Pell interests.

Memphis wires: "Generally fair
weather will prevail in the cotton States
except In the extreme northeastern sec
tions, w’here showers are likely. Good
weather in the central belt will be
quickly followed by warmer. No rain of
consequence has fallen. Favorable

DROUTH IN ILLINOIS ENDED.
CHICAGO. May 27.—B. W. Snow
wires from Vincennes, Ind.: "Generally
good rains from St. Louis; clear across
Illinois and East. Light in spots, but
enough to end drouth talk for the pres
ent. W’heat in big producing sections
of Illinois promises unusually heavy rata
of yield and this rain practically makes
it. Crop is lighter in eastern counties,
but fully up to the average on the In
diana side of the Wabash River South
of Terre Haute the crop is spotted with
the average hardly up to the usual
promise.
"Oats consistently poor all across Illi
nois; rather better on Indiana side, but
distinctly a poor outlook. The rains
will help, but crop in Missouri, Illinois
and southwest Indiana will be a very
short one regardless of future weather.
The damage suffered when oats were
germinating can not be repaid. Corn
planting practically done and conditions
favorable to a good start. Farmers are
not making any contracts for delivery
of new grain.
"Plenty of old corn everywhere, but
oats stock reported light."
