ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2,1913. By^Sr&oVATco. 2 CENTS. PAT NO MORE b iy Miss Clara Belle Griffin, the Na tional Pencil Factory girl whose strange disappearance from her home at No. 265 North Ashby street led the police to fear another Phagan mystery, was found by her brother Tuesday noon at Grady Hospital, where she explained her failure to re turn home Monday a/ternoon. She said that she went to the pen cil factory Monday morning, but that she became faint soon after arriving there and went to the hospital, where s»he had received treatment before. She was ill all day, she said, and that was the reason her relatives had not been informed of the reason for her disappearance. Following close on the tragedy of which Mary Phagan was the victim at the pencil factory, Miss Griffin's unaccountable disappearance spurred the police to an immediate Investiga tion After making inquiries of all her friends and acquaintances, the detectives decided upon a thorough search of the pencil factory. Detectives Black and Bullard went to the factory and were about to be gin their search when the news came that the girl had been found at the hospital safe and sound. Relatives Are Frantic. Miss Griffin lives with her mother and her brother, Louis A. Griffin, at the Ashby street address. They were frantic when she failed to re- turn home Monday night. She had left in the morning at 6:30 o’clock, .saving that she had some work to do that would keep her at the factory until about noon. She informed her mother that N. V. Darley, the general manager, had told her that she would have to work only the half day. The apprehension of her relatives was increased by the fact that Mon day, like the day on which Mary Pha gan was slain, was a holiday, when only a few persons would be around the factory. The police were notified Monday night, and inquiry was made at the home of girl acquaintances, where it was thought she might stay over night. This investigation bringing no result, Detective Bass Rosser was as signed to the case Tuesday morning and was instructed to spare no effort to locate the missing girl. The girl's brother, who is a ma chinist at the Gate City Coffee Com pany, visited the pencil factory the first thing in the morning and made rigid inquiry in regard to the where abouts of his sister, Darley, thfe general manager, and E. F. Holloway, the day watchman, told him that no one had been work ing there Monday, on account of its being Labor Day, and that it was pre posterous to suppose that the girl could have been at the factory. Detectives Begin Search, Griffln, however, was extremely fearful that his sister had met a fate similar to that of Mary Phagan. from the fact that she never had stayed away from home at night and never had been absent from home any length of time unless her mother knew exactly where she was. When no trace of the girl had been found by 11 o'clock Tuesday. Chief of Detectives Lanford began to believe that the fears of the brother might bo well founded, and placed Detectives Bullard and Black on the case, with orders to make a search of the pencil factory from top floor to the base ment where the body of Mary Phagan was found the morning of April 27. The two detectives were at the fac tory when Louis Griffln called up by telephone, saying that he had found his sister in Gradv Hospital. He had called there previously, but there had been a misunderstanding in regard to the name, and he had been told that she was not there. RACING RESULTS AT OTTAWA.

Sept. 2.—The con dition of the cotton crop over the entire belt averaged 68.2 on August 25, the lowest condition of that date recorded since 1909, according to the estimate of the United States Cen sus Bureau, announced at noon to day. Reports of continued drouth and high temperatures in Texas and Ok lahoma had made it apparent to the trade that there would be heavy de preciation from the July condition of 79.6. but the most pessimistic private authorities had looked for a condition of not worse than 69.6 and the pri vate estimates ranged from this fig ure to 70.6. The decline in the condition of cot ton for the month is 11.4 points. In August, 1909. a condition of 63.7 was recorded, and in August, 1902, the condition was 64.0. In August, 1900, the condition also was 68.2. Rise Starts at Opening. Cotton futures in New York were strong today. Shorts were fearing an extremely bullish report and the weather during the three days that the exchange had been closed has been moat unfavorable to the Texas and Oklahoma cotton. At noon, when the trading came to a standstill to await the flash of the government figures, quotations were from 19 to 33 points over Friday’s close, with January options standing at 12.44 cents. Fifteen minutes after the Hash January touched 12.53, May 12.71. At the close October sold at 12.95, December at 12.98 and January at 12.80—advances of 68, 73 and 71 points, respectively. Far Below Average. The average August condition for the ten years from 1903 through 1912 was 74.7. For July, the ten-year con dition average \vas 80. The ten-year average decline in condition, there fore, has been 6.4 points, compared to 11.4 points this year. Once, with a low August condition figure, there was a big crop. This was in 1911, when tlie August figures were 73.2. It now is suspected that the government made an error in computing the average that year and besides, the weather during the lat ter part of August and all of Sep tember ttfat yea* was ideal for the crop. This year the drouth in Texa^ and Oklahoma remains unbroken to date, a week after tlie date of the Census Bureau report. The condition in the various cotton- growing States follows: Aug. July. Aug.
