Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
LONDON, May 30/—After seven
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 s»ome of the Balkan gov
ernments balked at signing It,
but pressure was brought to near and
they had to get into line.
Only the biggest issues involved are
included in the treaty, the details be
ing left to future negotiations. Most
of the side issues involving territory
will be settled by the ambassadorial
high court of arbitration, while an
international commission will decide
the amount of war indemnity tiie
Balkan states and Greece shall have

Should the government show a con

Giles In her past years of estimating
the crop condition and the acreage al
ways has approximated the area plant
ed and condition close to the govern
ment figures. Hh« places the condition
as of May 24 at 84.6 and gave acreage
an increase of 3.7 per cent. She ap

The weather map has been of such
favorable character that the cotton
markets have been flooded with bril-
lant 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

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 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 95 per cent chopped
out with Helds perfectly cultivated.”
The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says: "There are more bears than bulls
and the bears have more to talk about.
Consequently, bearish gossip is heard on
•ll 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
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 cireum-
.tances 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
much danger on the short side of cotton
tt present levels. These people say that
current levels have been brought about
»y fl Preponderance of bearish gossip:
at 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
crop prospects pointing to less than
15,000,000 bales of American would seem
too small.”

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 hales. 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
(he Southern and Central States by
Monday.
Our market ruled quiet and steady
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
87.8. although it is generally believed
that crop prospects to-day are fully as
good as in that year. The report is 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.
Estimated cotton receipts:
Monday. 1912.’

Fusion Clan Loses
Suit in Tennessee
^ NASHVILLE. TENN., May 30.—
The fusion in Tennessee politics to
day suffered a severe blow when
Chancellor John Alllsoft decided that
the newly elected State Election Com
missioners were untitled to assume
their offices. Their right to hold office
was questioned by thb fusionUts be
cause they were elected by the “reg
ular" faction, after a. legislative quo
rum had .been broken by a fusion
hegira to Kentueky.
If the Supreme Court upholds this
derision, the "regulars" will be in oon-
tiol of the State election machinery’.

for reason of the scarcity in the better
class. Prices have varied from %c lower
on common kinds to a possible %c higher
on this week s tops, which were hardly
good enough to be considered an aver
age crop. Commission men are expect
ing light receipts for the incoming week

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 inducements
If you prefer country or f;

Climate and Soil
A Little Home
All Your Own
Start off right. If you
do not own your home,
get busy and secure one.
There is no excuse for
anyone Hving in a rented
house. The Classified
Real Estate Ads tn The
Georgian show you the
way. Many bargains and
ea§y terms,
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 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 t bin king
that the land is not so
as stated. The land is
but there are thousan<
acres that are now lying idle
and the good people of
Georgia are anxious for good
farmers to come among them.
Consequently the land is
cheaper here than-elsewhere.
