OFFICIALLY ENOS
Preliminary Treaty, Forced by the
Powers, Signed in London by
Turkey and Allies.
ATLANTA MARKETS
8peclal Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
LONDON, May 30.—After »even
months 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 some 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 involved are
included in the treaty, the details b»-
Ing left to future negotiations. Most
of the side issues involving territory
wifi be settled 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 Sunday American goes every
where all over the South. If you have
anything to sell The Sunday Amer
ican is “The Market Place of the
South.” The Sunday American is the
best advertising medium.
The market was an evening-up affair
yesterday afternoon. The ring sold dur- j
ing the early session, led by prominent 1
operators. The selling was based on
favorable weather and crops news; also
the high condition report issued by Miss
Giles. Traders were Inclined to the be
lief 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
Vork apd there was considerable liqui
dation in that option, which was the
weak feature.
Should the government show a con-
dltion • AMERICAN EXCHANGES
the market will liquidate heavily. Miss '
Giles In her past years of estimating
;he 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
planted as 35,709,400 acres, com
with her estimate In 1912,

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 coming In indicate a very
satisfactory stand. Seeds that were late
in germinating have come on nicely.
The 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 as 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 plowring begun. There
are complaints now of poor stands.
Conditions generally are as good as they
ive 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 Times-Democrat
saya: "There are more bears than bulls
and the bears have more to talk about.
Consequently, bearish gossip is heard on
ill sides. The weather is excellent.
There is a fresh threat of war in Eu
rope. At home and abroad capital is
timid. Call money Is not scarce, but
lime money is hard to get. Railroad in
vefftors 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
s 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
nuoh danger on the short side of cotton
(t present levels. These people say that
current levels have been brought about
.> a preponderance of bearish gossip;
under normal conditions the rela
at
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
an -X™ r j?,£ prospects pointing to less than
11>,000,900 hales of American would seem
too small."

HAYWARD A CLARK’S
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
-vithln 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
Atlantic8—which condition has since
been overcome- the bureau condition is
expected lower than in 1911, when it was
87.8, although it is generally belireved
that crop prospects to-day are fully as
good as in that year. The report is not
expected to have much direct effect be-
ca.ise 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.

Fusion Clan Loses
Suit in Tennessee
NASHVILLE, TENN., May 30.—
The fusion In Tennessee politics to
day suffered a severe blow when

was questioned by the fusionists be
cause they were elected by the “reg

rum had been broken by a fusion

If the Supreme Court upholds this
decision, the "regulars” will be In con-

Life's Worth 1
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 grazing theentire
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 yean.
The prices at which good
farm land can be purchased
at present in Georgia are so
low that it is a matter of
comment—«ome 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 t ocome among them.
Consequently the land is
cheaper here than elsewhere.
