Appointed Member of Important Board—Just Back, Judge Tells Interesting Vacation Stories. After a two months’ vacation, of w'hich he says he enjoyed every min ute. part of it spent on his Ohio farm and the remainder on a tour of the principal cities of the East, with a week’s sojourn in Montreal, Canada, where he attended the Bar Associa tion convention, Judge Don A. Pardee, of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, returned to Atlanta Wed nesday. The judge was In high spirits. His face wore a ruddy glow which he explained was the result of many cross-country' trips, riding on his fa vorite horse, “Major.” At the lawyers’ convention he was elected a member of the conference to consider court reforms. “Yes,” said the judge, “the first several times I rode Major this year I had to be hoisted into the saddle. I was mighty stiff, but I 90on limbered up after I had been Jolted in the saddle a few' days. “I spent five weeks on my farm and did not ride in an automobile once. Nowadays nearly all the farm ers have automobiles and consider it old-fashioned to ride horseback, but to me it is real sport. Pead Only The Georgian. “While on my farm I laid aside all care and the only thing that 1 read was The Atlanta Georgian, which came regularly every day by mail. “Want me to tell you about the Bar Association convention in Mon treal, do you? Well I am not much of a story-teller, but I will do the best I can. “First of all. there’s the city of Montreal, which is more of a dcy than the average American imagines. It has a population of 800.000. It is a beautiful place. A strange thing about the city is that it has two levels, with a mountain in the cen ter. A tunnel is being dug und?r the mountain which will connect the two levels. “While I was in Montreal the law- vers were in complete possession of the city. The Canadians were most, courteous and treated us royally. It would not be far amiss to assume that some day Canada w'ill be a part of the United States. “My trip was most pleasant ever, if I was forced to have my baggage inspected both on entering and leav ing Canada. “Lord Haldane, as you know, ad dressed the Bar Association. He discussed freely international mat ters. and I think showed sound judg ment. Especially so were his views on the vital questions which interest us most to-day. Put on Important Board. “Lord Haldane seemed to think very much along the same lines as the majority of our American statesmen and his views on international law’s ran very much in the same channel as ours. Lord Haldane has a pleas ing personality -and is broadminded enough to be really great. We all enjoyed hearing him talk and he w\f given resounding applause when lie had finished. “Former President William Howard Taft was present and made an ex cellent address on the laws of our country. Monsieur Labordi. the dis tinguished Frenchman representing his country. made an impressive speech. “Attorney General McReynold.^. was present and spoke in behalf of the United States. Later a reception was given in his honor. Federal judges from every circuit in the United States were in attendance, together with the most prominent men from El Paso to the Great Lakes and from the Atlantic to the Pacific. "I was selected to represent the fifth circuit in the Supreme Court ft Appeals conference, w’hich took .ip the question of uniform procedure in the courts. It w r as the largest as semblage of lawyers in the history of the association.” COTTON GOSSIP Chicago Great Western applies to Missouri Public Service Commission for authority to issue $3,116,000 bonds and preferred stock. • * • Norfolk and Western reports 10.14 per cent earned on $85,603,000 common stock, against 9.37 per cent in the pre ceding year. • • • United States Steel Corporation will report its unfilled tonnage figures to day. • • * Average prices of twelve industrials advanced .11; twenty active rails ad vanced .26. • • * Good support appears on reactions.

But In the late session after New York's close, les.s fa vorable advices came from Washington and the New Orleans contract market eased off “Meanwhile, Southern spot markets having caught the bullish fever and af fected favorably by the buying of act ual cotton on a tender basis by many merchants, again scored some sharp advance.

They predict 14 cents for January in 10 days and 15 cents before Christmas. * * * A private message from Washington said that indications were that the amendment taxing cotton futures would be defeated in conference. This dis patch said that Chairman Underwood was very much opposed to the cotton futures tax. It is also said that while the tax might not be stricken from the Tariff Bdl in conference between the Senate and the House. Its terms would be materially modified. Atlanta Markets FEEDSTUFFS.

Society Party Drifts All Night in Launch CHICAGO, Sept. 10.—Nine women socially prominent In Oak Park and Austin suburbs were found to-day drifting in a helpless launch on the drainage canal near Joliet, Ill., after an all-night search. The women, guests at a party given by Mrs. Herbert S. Mills, wife of H wealthy manufacturer of Oak Park, had started out for a ride in the Mills launch. NEW YORK, Sept. 10.—The selUng movement was resumed at the opening of the cotton market to-day. based chiefly on the passage of the tariff bill and lower cables from Liverpool than expected and first prices were at a net decline of 8 to 12 points from last night’s close. After the call the decline was widened to 13 to 14 points on a bearish weather map. showing further rains in Texas and Oklahoma. This brought out a wave of profit taking. On this decline buy ing orders increased, many brokers filing open buying orders on it for long account. Th volume of trading, how ever. was not large, but prices climbed some 1 to 5 points over the prevTbus close. Private messages from Washington that the amendment to tax cotton fu tures may be modified, if not entirely eliminated in the conference over the bill between the House and the Senate, furnished the backbon to the rise and gave greater encouragement to the bulls than even the previous news At the close the market was steady with prices at a net decline of 12 to 12% points from last night’s close.
