DONALDSONVILLE, DA., Sept. 2
After a hard day’s run, the All-South
ern Transcontinental and Good Roads
Touring Party was forced to stop for
j the night at Et. Elmo, on the east
| bank of the Mississippi River, 78
! miles from New Orleans, and came
; on to Donaldsonville Tuesday morn
ing.
Terrific thundershowers delayed the
progress of the car up the river’s side
by turning the dirt roads into a sticky
mass that clutched at the tires of the
machine and threatened to send it
sliding into the ditches on the side.
For miles the car traveled the road
on low gear, and when Darrow was
finally reached the ferry could not be
crossed until early morning.
During Tuesday Napol^bnville, Thi
bodeaux, Houma and Morgan City
will be reached, and good roads talks
made. The stop for the night will be
made at Morgan City, and Wednes
day the car takes up its journey anew
toward the Lone Star State.

Largest Advance Since Panic of
1909—Late Crops Feature.
January Goes to 12.80.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2.—In response to
dry weather In the southwest over the
triple holiday and expectation of a very
bullish Government report on the con
dition of the cotton crop, the cotton
market opened firm to-day and first
prices were at a net advance of 8 to 23
points from the closing quotations of
last Friday.
Not only was there a lack of rain, but
temperatures
I he New York Commercial places the
condition of the cotton crop at the end
of August at 71 per cent.
Condition by States: Tennessee, .77;
Oklahoma, .51; Louisiana, .63; Arkansas,
.80; South Carolina, .78; Mississippi, .75;
Georgia, .86; North Carolina. .70; Tex
as, .60; Alabama, .70. The above figures
indicate a yield of 13,400,000 bales.
* • •
A Washington special to The Journal
of Commerce says; "It would appear
from the tariff debate In the Senate
yesterday that the Democrats have de
cided to make certain alterations In
the cotton futures tax section, but in
a manner that would possibly restrict
sales more on the New York exchange
than would result from the present
proposed tax.
”It is said the plan is to modify the
section as it now appears in the pend
ing tariff hill to compel deliveries of
cotton to correspondents with the grade
of cotton specified in the original con
tract. When the grade called for in the
contract Is not delivered that contract
is to be taxed Just as though no deliv-
.fniperatures remained unseasonably | erv was to be made. The leaders are
htsh. Which further inereased deterlora- now considering J1 SO per 100 bales as
U°n After the call, prices were pushed
19 to 33 points higher than the previous
close, through covering by nervous
shorts. New crops w'ere the highest.
January climbed to 12.42 for 33 points
advance.
The Government made public Its con
dition figures of the growing crop
promptly at 12 o’clock, giving Its condi
tion of the crop as of August 25, 68.2
per cent, or 11.4 points deterioration
from a month ago. and a decline of 6 6
points from the corresponding period
last year.
The entire trade was disappointed, as
it was generally expected the condition
would be around 70. January, which
stood at 12.42 before the report was is
sued, shot up like a skyrocket until It
had totaled a net gain of 65 points from
the previous close. The advance was re
corded in jumps of 5. 10 and 18 points
at a time. Other positions followed the
advance accordingly, and within fifteen
minutes after the report came out every
option on the list had established new
high levels of the season, being about 50
to 65 points from Friday’s close, or
over $3 a bale higher. Shorts, spot In
terests. commission houses and all sorts
of buyers fought for cotton, but offer
ings were practically nil.
The tone was inflexible.
At the close the market was firm, with
prices at a net gain of 67 to 70 points
from the closing quotations of Fridav.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 2.—While
some good scattered rains fell over the
holidays, particularly in the southern
half of Texas, that State has not yet
had a general rain. Good general rains
fell in the south central and eastern
States. Indications continue for partly
cloudy and scattered showers.
Liverpool this morning was about 5
points better than due. Spots. 3 points
higher.
Views in regard to trade continue un
favorable, consumers only buying for
their immediate needs. Owing to the
dry weather in the west, a large amount
of cotton is ready for the market, which
must be taken Into consideration, and
the relation of offerings to the eagerness
of the demand will be a leading factor
after the present excitement over the
Bureau condition is over.

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 living in a rented

of the stocks, and are arrayed on the
constructive side of prices. Believe the |
trend will be toward higher prices and
would buy stocks on recessions.—G. D.
