Big Projects Brewing.
Pople who think the local real es
tate market is quiet will be interested
to learn that some of the biggest deals
1 in the city’s history are under way
It and are expected to be announced
* soon. These will come within a month
or 60 days, according to the real es
tate men who are interested in them.
Big improvements go with some.
A dealer who trades a good part of
the time in private properties has a
trade on which will make past cash
transactions lock small in comparison.
There are other arrangements which
are being kept exceedingly quiet.
Many Heating Plants.
The Moncrief Furnace Company has
applied to Building Inspector Ed R.
Hays for permits to install nine fur
naces at an aggregate of $1,445.
Demand for Healey Space.
Demand for office building space
seems never to cease in Atlanta., The
Third National Bank Building was
filled, it will be recalled, before the
sixth elevator had been installed, and
so with many other structures. The
Hurt Building is all practically under
lease and the Healey Building has had
applications from nearly 100 business
concerns.
The Healey applications are about
sufficient to fill the structure, al
though the leases have not yet been
signed. A. F. and Milton Liebman are
the agents for the building.
Realty Board Dinner.
Members of the Atlanta Real Estate
Board gathered early Friday after
noon in the Georgia Pine Room of the
/ l Hotel Ansley for their regular
* monthly luncheon. Delegates to the
j convention at Winnipeg were present j
and told interesting stories of experi
ences in the Canadian Northwest.
The question of the convention for
1916 was discussed informally, and
the opinion seemed to be that Atlanta
would win out.
It now develops that Memphis did
not carry a formal invitation to
i Winnipeg, although the intention to
/ do this was expressed two weeks be
fore the meeting opened. Local deal
ers take this to mean that Atlanta
will have no opposition from the Ten
nessee city, although no chances are
being taken. President White, ex-
President Glover, Fitzhugh Kno'x and
S. B. Turman are confident that At
lanta will win.
‘ Atlanta will get the convention if
she wants it,” declared Mr. White.
Alterations to Cost $15,000.
Luther Z. Rosser and J. H. Porter
have filed an application with Build
ing Inspector Ed R. Hays for a permit
to make additions and alterations to
their building at 63 and 65 North
Pryor street, the same to cost $15,000.
Oud e & Co. have the contract.
This structure was formerly occu
pied by the Dougherty-Little-Redwine
Company, wholesale dry goods mer
chants. and was bought in February
for $184,550. There are six stories
and about 70,000 square feet of floor
space, practically all of which has been
leased by the Forest & George Adair
Real Estate Agency. The lot is on
the east side of th e street, between
Auburn avenue and Edgewood ave
nue. „ .
The building will be converted into
offices, with elevators and other mod
ern conveniences. The dry goods
merchants are now at 90 and 92 South
Pryor street.

SENDS COTTON OP
Giles Report and Unfavorable
Crop Advices Drive Shorts to
Cover—Cables Firm.
NEW YORK, Aug. 15.—Conditions re
flecting the cotton market at the open
ing to-day were a little more bullish
than yesterday and first prices were 5
to 10 points higher than the closing quo
tations of Thursday. The Giles report
was regarded as moderately bullish, but
weather conditions in the Southwest
proved another factor, which encouraged
an active buying, which was attributed
chiefly to local short covering. Brokers,
representing spot interests, also bought.
While there was no rains shown on
the map for Texas aqd Oklahoma, still
reports from Dallas state that there
were scattered showers in several local
ities. and New Orleans wires that indi
cations point for further rains over Sun
day. However, the market failed to
bulge from the initial high point, ex
cept the most remote positions were
lowered about 2 points, but soon re
trieved the decline.
During the forenoon offerings became
stiff and considerably scattered, result
ing In the entire list rallying 5 to 7
points from the beginning range, except
August, which held steady at 12 points
advance over the previous close.
There was a decided change in sen
timent late yesterday and there was
considerable late buying which was re
flected in Liverpool markets this morn
ing. While Kofler. of New Orleans, is
predicting rain over Sunday for the
West, the Government forecast says
hot and dry.
Wall Street and the uptown crowd
have been among the leading sellers to
day. There was also a good deal of
speculative buying. In theabsence of
rains over Sunday it is very probable
that the market will sell considerably
higher On the other hand, should rains
some it will undoubtedly have a de
pressing effect.
Following are 11 a. m. bids in New
York: August, 11.58: October. 11.05;
December, 10.98; January, 10.88; March.
10.96.
Following are 10 a. m. bids In New

tion from the Western States.
The map shows fair weather in Okla

belt, the only precipitation at Abilene
and Brownsville, whereas private re
ports show scattered showers overnight
over a large area in Texas. Good show
ers in Louisiana. Mississippi, Tennessee
and the Atlantics Indications are for
unsettled and showery weather over
practically the entire belt.
Our market opened about 5 higher and
advanced further to 11.12 for October.
Trade quiet, and in spite of attempts
toward a short scare (on reports of
drouth damage), the market showed a
lack of confidence.
The fact is that Texas has had show
ery weather for the past four days and
Indications continue favorable to more
extensive rains over Oklahoma also.
The Central and Eastern States are
doing very well and interest in forward
shipments by the trade is disappointing
ly slow. There is, however, a short in
terest of minor strength in the market,
and. as sentiment has been so much
worked up by fhe dry spell in the West,
attempts at a reaction might become
more successful should rains fail to ap
pear over Sunday.

The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says: "Limited forward demand on one
hand and trade belief the crop is rapid
ly deteriorating in the West on the
other, were the conflicting features in
yesterday's cotton market. around
which were grouped severul smaller is
sues of more or less moment. The
trade as a whole can see no logic in
bulling a market that is not accumu
lating forward demand, even though the
pause in buying be known to be caused
by something other than lack of gen
eral requirement. Manchester has been
such a busy buyer during the past two
months that indifference there, even for
a short while, looms large in trade
eyes.
"Meanwhile, there is much contro
ls pending a little below the market,
which would begin to figure should gen
eral rains not come to the West in
the near future, should Washington,
some fine morning announce that the
‘Clarke rider’ had been kicked off the
tariff bill.
"Mean while, there is much contro
versy over the weather in the West
and feeling among the talent runs
rather high One school of thought
contends that drouth has done very
serious and irreparable damage in
Oklahoma and is causing severe dete
rioration in Texas every day. These
people contend that drouth is acute In
all save a few of the more favored sec
tions. Another school of thought as
serts that moderate hut slightly bene
ficial rains have fallen over most of
the dry area, that the deficit in moisture
is not so great as it was last year, that
the damage done is more imaginary
than real, and that general rains are
now on the way.”
The market steadied after the call on
the forecast, which pointed for dry
weather in the western belt. Riordari,
Lee. Cone and Cardoza were the leading
buyers. Hicks, Shearson and Schley
were the leading sellers.
Early advices by telegraph companies
show extensive showers overnight In
parts of east, central, north and west
Texas. Western Union reports showers

large tract in west Texas. Omaha, Cairo,

Enormous Trade in
Wool; Mills Buying
BOSTON, Aug. 16.—More wool has
been sold during the past week than
any similar period since the first of
the year. Conservative estimates give
the total sales as above 3,000,000
pounds; some run as high as 5,006,000
Prices are not materially changed,
though holders are disposed to ask a
little more for good lots of unwashed
fleeces.
Large sales are noted of territory
wools, graded and In the original bags,
both cloth mills and yarns spinners
having been among the recent buyers.
Local holders of washed fleeces are still

believed to have run its maximum for
the present.%and it Is expected there will
be no great pressure from hedges until

was the general belief lust night that
local professionals nave less long corn
