LONDON, May 30. After seven
month* of hostilities between the
states of the Balkan League and Tur
key, during which the Ottoman Em
pire was shorn-of 60,000 square miles
of territory In Europe, the Balkan
war officially came to an end to-day
with the signing of a preliminary
treaty of peace at St. James Palace.
The treaty was prepared by Sir
Edward Grey, English Foreign Min
ister. at the insistence of the powers.
For a time eome of the Balkan gov
ernments balked at signing it,
but pressure was brought to bear and
they had to get into line.
Only the biggest issues fnvolved are
included 1n the treaty, the details be
ing left to future negotiations. Most
of the side issues Involving territory
will be sottled by the ambassadorial
high court of arbitration, while an
international commission will decide
the amount of war indemnity the
Balkan states and Greece shall have

The market was an evening*up affair
yesterday afternoon. The ring sold dur
ing the early session, led hy prominent
operators. The selling was based on
favorable weather and crops news, alao
the high condition report issued by Miss
Giles. Traders wore Inclined to the be-
flef that the government report to be
issued Monday will show a higher con
dition than looked for, but there was
nervousness around the close and short
covering followed. Outside business was
light and trading confined almost en
tirely to local operations. Liverpool
was thought to have sold July In New
York and there was considerable liqui
dation in that option, which was the
weak feature.
8nould the government show a con
dition as high as Miss Giles’ estimate,
the market will liquidate heavily. Miss
Giles In her past years of estimating
ihe crop condition and the acreage al
ways has approximated the area plant
ed and condition close to the govern
ment figures. She places the condition
as of May 24 at 84.6 and gave acreage
an increase of 3.7 per cent. She ap
proximates the area planted and to be
planted as 36,709,400 acres, compared
with her estimate in 1912, 34.424,000
acres picked.
* * •
The weather map has been of such
favorable character that the cotton
markets have been flooded with bril
liant advices from all quarters of the
belt. Reports corning in indicate a very
satisfactory stand. , Seeds that were late
in germinating have come on nicely.
I’he market closed Thursday with prices
on an even keel to meet the June re
port.
• • •
Birmingham wires; "Weather condi
tions throughout this entire section,
which applies to parts of Georgia and
Mississippi, are as good an any one
could desire, and merchants and farmers
say the cotton crop is progressing
nicely and will soon be chopped out the
first time and plowing begun. There
are complaints now of poor stands.
Conditions generally are as good as they
ave ever been at this season of the
year.”
Talladega* Ala., wires: “A banker of
this city, who covered the four counties
of Talladega, Clay, Randolph and Talla
poosa three weeks ago and found much
cotton not up and farmers pessimistic,
has Just returned from a buggy trip
covering the same territory and reports
all cotton up and 96 per cent chopped
out with fields perfectly cultivated.”
The New Orleans Tlmes-Democrat
says: "There are more bears than bulls
and the bears have more to talk about.
Consequently, bearish gossip is heard on
dl sides. The weather fs excellent.
There Is a fresh threat of war in Eu
rope At home and abroad capital is
timid. Call money is not scarce, but
time money is hard to get. Railroad in
vestors in America are worried. Enter
prise generally Is affected by the spirit
of uneasiness. Under the circum
stances outside speculators in cotton
are attracted by the bearish belief there
* money to be made on the short side.
"The bullish position is handicapped
by all this talk Nevertheless there are
many thinking professionals who see
nuch danger on the short side of cotton
<t present levels. These people say that
current levels have been brought about
y a preponderance of bearish gossip;
it under normal conditions the rela
tionship of aggregated bears to aggre
gated supply would warrant higher val
ues than those now ruling; that depres
sion can not continue indefinitely, and
that with consumption free to expand
a . ny rt rr P p Fleets pointing to less than
15,000,000 bales of American would seem
too small.”

Fusion Clan Loses <
Suit in Tennessee
NASHVILLE, TENN., May 30.—
The fusion in Tennewee politics to
day suffered a severe blow ? when
Chancellor John Allison decided that
the newly elected State Election Com
missioners were entitled to assume
their offices. Their right to hold office
was questioned by the fuslonlsts be
cause they were elected by the "reg
ular" faction, after a legislative quo
rum had been broken by a fusion
hegira to Kentucky.
If the Supreme Court upholds this
decision, the 'Tegulars'’ will be 1n con-
tiol of the State election machinery.

of County Commissioners of Mus
cogee for a term of three years, to

DAILY COTTON LETTER.
NEW ORLEANS. May 30—Liverpool
is disappointing with old crops about 4
points lower and new crops 2 points
lower than due; spots unchanged; sales,
10.000 bales. London advices express se
rious concern over the Balkan situation,
and with this menace continuing in Eu
rope no trade revival is likely. France
is engaged in Morocco, Italy in Tripoli
and the other continental powers have
to keep practically on a war footing in
distrust of each other.
Generally fair and warm weather ruled
overnight in the belt and Is indicated
for to-day. followed by Increasing cloud
iness and showery weather over Sunday
in the northwestern quarter of the belt.
The rainy spell is likely to work Into
the 'Southern and Central States by
Monday.
Our market ruled quiet and steady
a ithin a narrow range. Interests seem
arranged to receive the bureau condition
report Monday at 11 o’clock, our time.
The general expectation Is between 82
and 84. comparing with 78.9 last year.
Owing to delay by the dry spell in the
Atlantics—which condition has since
been overcome—the bureau condition is
expected lower than In 1911, when it was
87 H, although it Is generally believed
that crop prospects to-day are fully as
good as in that year. The report D not
expected to have much direct effect be
cause of technical conditions' and the
fear that professional operators may
take a bull position on the market
against shorts If offered a good oppor
tunity by a break.

Life’s Worth -
Living in Georgia >
If you prefer city life, there
are no better cities in the
world than those in Georgia.
If you prefer village life, the
smaller towns in Georgia
offer every inducement.
If you prefer country or farm
life, Georgia offers greater
inducements than any State
in the Union. Georgia lands
work the year round, from
two to five crops being gath
ered off of the same land
each year—crops that are
profitable.
Climate and Soil
The climate is such that far
mers do not have to house
stock during the winter, there
being good grazingthe entire
year. For raising cattle and
stock Georgia offers greater
inducements than can be
found elsewhere.
The soil is suited for almost
anything that grows and can
be utilized the entire year.
The prices at which good
farm land can be purchased
at present in Georgia are so
low that it is a matter of
comment—some thinking
that the land is not so good
as stated. The land is good,
but there are thousands of
acres that are now lying idle
and the good people of
Georgia are anxious for good
farmers tocome among them.
Consequently the land is
cheaper here than elsewhere.
