Drew Caminetti, son of a wealthy and prominent family, whose father is politically powerful, to-day admitted that he was near a nervous break down over the approach of his trial, which begins Tuesday before Federal Judge Van Fleet. Following the con viction of Maury I. Diggs, former State architect, on & charge of being a white slaver, Caminetti must face the same charge and hear the same evi dence against him that convicted Diggs. In an interview to-day he said: "I do not attempt to condone a breach of Federal law, but I am not a white slaver, and I will not plead guilty to the charge against me.” Caminetti will not deny the truth of any st£*fcment that Lola Norris makes on the witness stand. “When Man’s Sin Comes Home.” "God knows,” he said, "that it Is going to be hard for me and for Diggs, but infinitely worse for the two women in the case. I know from my experience before the trial. "That is where a man’s sin comes home to him. It is hard enough for all of us, but doubly hard for Lola Norris. As for Marsha Warrington, I feel, perhaps, less sympathy, for she used reprisal. Anything that Lola may say on the witness stand will have no denial from me.” Not Reconciled With Wife. Speaking of the rumor that he was to plead guilty, Caminetti said: "I am not guilty of any Intent or action under the white slave law. I do not condone my offense, but surely it is only natural to say that this is an offei.se that is being com mitted by thousands every day and for which there is no impeachment or even blame. “I am not afraid to face trial. I have sinned, but I have not sinned as this Mann act would make It ap pear. I can only hope that prejudice will be stricken from the courtroom when I am put on trial.” There has been no reconciliation between Caminetti and his wife. Elkin Gets Rich Gift From Rexall Club W. S. Elkin. Jr., one of Atlanta’s leading druggists, was the recipient of a handsome chest of silver Friday as a token of esteem from the Rexall Club of the United States.

He declared his wife finally drovjd him to nervous prostration. / / Court Denies Him His- Wife’s Teeth WASHINGTON. Aug. 28.—Separa- tion from one’s wife In the eyes of the law. furnishes no excuse for at tempting to separate that wife from her store teeth, even though the hus- hand did buy them and considered them his property. This is the ruling of Police Judge Aukam, and as a result, Henry Har desty to-day is In the workhouse under a 30-days’ sentence. "But, Judge, I bought and paid for them,” Hardesty expostulated. The Judge declined to adopt the husband's viewpoint. NEW YORK, Aug. 23.—Influenced by a dry weather map and proapeois fer no rain over the Southwest Sunday, coupled with a very bullish report by Cordill on Texas, and Turner’s report showed considerable deterioration, the cotton market opened strong to-day with first prices at a met advance of 8 to 18 points from the closing quotation* of Friday. This was much higher for new crops than had been expected. Some of the trade who had reduced their lines yesterday were good buyers at the st^rt. In addition to this. Liverpool re ported firm cables, but quoted spot cot ton unchanged, with only 4,000 bales. Spot Interests, commission houses and shi rts- put prices still higher when they heard that all chances of rain where needed were gone, as far as oou’d be Judged from the weather map. It rained where no cotton was grown or where the crop needs no moisture Just now. Prices continued to climb higher until they stood about 28 points higher than the previous close by the end of the first hour. It was the gossip that crop estimates are being lowered. Some spot houses believe the loss will be about 2,000.000 bales in Texas and Oklahoma. Many believe that If the eastern crop turns out as It did in 1911, the total crop will be about 14,000.000 bales. These early estimates are not worth much. At the close, the market was very steady, with prices at a net advance of 38 to 23 points from the final quotations of Friday. Estimated cotton receipts: „ Saturday. 1912.

New York rep«4rts active support by the Interests, w’hich led the advance early Jn the week. The Cordill report; and official forecast of fair weather w*est with the expectation of bullish private condition reports next week were the principal reasons for the buying.

This sort of thing has now begun to get on the nerves of the talent, and even those bulls who, in the past, have been most outspoken In support of the accu racy of the Government data are ready to believe that beneficial rains have come to many sections in the We*t without being Indicated by the Govern ment. "This creates a wld* open Question In the minds of both talent and trade. The mere fact that there is reason to doubt the complete dependability of any In formation on which the rings rely* In jects the element of unoortalnty where arsuranoe alone should exist. More par ticularly Is this true at this time, be cause Sunday, -the date on which the Government will predicate Its crop con dition percentages will he made up. Naturally then the question arises: Will the Government crop condition data be In a measure based on Govern ment weather Information, in so far as It applies to crop needs, or only on the actual status of the crop, Government weather to the contrary notwithstand ing. "The theorist who depends on the Government weather reports expects much more bullish condition percentage figures for Texas and Oklahoma than does the man who accepts private rain reports from the West at approximately face value.” * • * J. B. Turner, of Memphis, reports the following on the condition of tne cotton the crop for the week ending August 22: "Deterioration In the condition of 1 cotton crop Is Indicated for the week In every State, save North and South Carolina, where the status has been barely maintained. In all the important cotton-producing States the loss appears to have been in excess of what may be termed usual for the season attending the gradual maturity of the plant. "Except in Louisiana, where showers aided the boll weevil, the loss has been due entirely to lack of rainfall. In Geor gia and to a smaller extent In Alabama, the plant, which had been abundantly nourish ed by frequent rains, was checked in growth, and gives evidence of inability to mature the young fruit unless more rains come. In the Missis sippi Valley the plant Is hardier than in the Southeast, but needs moisture to maintain the promise that has hereto fore been its need. "In Texas and Oklahoma long con tlnued drouth, with accompanying scorching sunshine, has dried out the soil and th* plant has wilted and parched to an extent that promises only very moderate recovery In the event soaking rains fall at once. Th* late growth that rain would produce would need a favorable fall for Its fruition ' By CHARLES W. 8TORM. NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—Canadian Pa cific showed the best *tr*ngth at th* opening of the stock market to-day, ad vancing to 221 for a gain of 2 points over Friday’s final. Much of the strength in Canadian Pa cific was due to buying orders cabled from the other side, as there was no session of the London Stock Exchange and speculators there had to do their Saturday trading In some other market. After half an hour however, Canadian Pacific lost some or Its advance. The tone was strong Among the other advances were the following: Amalgamated Copper, %; United States Steel common. *; Union Pacific, *; Southern Pacific. *; Reading. %: New York. New Haven and Hartfom, *; General Electrio, *• Chino Copper. *; Chesapeake and Ohio, *; St. Paul %. and American Locomotive, 1. The strength in American T»o<nnotlve was due to a statement by the president relative to the decision to cease manu facturing automobiles.

It should prove profitable to look for fair buying opportunities with the intention to secure reasonable profits.—Financial Bureau. * • « The market holds well, considering the uncertainty of the Mexican situa tion, and what activity there Is seems to be running Into specialties. The trac tion stocks look attractive for an ad vance, as the pools working In these Is sues are accumulating rather than dis tributing at this level.

"A fair crop of bears has been created In corn during the post few days and local short Interest has been Increased. Many of those In a bearish condition, however, appear to be working harder to talk the price lower, than by actual short sales." • • • Bartlett. Frazier A Co. says: "Wheat —Look for a narrow market to-day.
