COTTON GOSSIP
Three-Cornered Fight Between
Him, Mayo and Wright Holds
County’s Interest.
Formally announced candidates for
Sheriff:
Sheriff C. Wheeler Mangum, to suc
ceed himself.
Captain William M. Mayo, of the
Atlanta Police Department.
Chief Deputy City Marshall, L. O.
Wright, who served six years as
Sheriff of Newton County.
Prospecti ve:
Chief Deputy Sheriff Plennie Miner.
Candidates fur the office of Sheriff
ire grooming- themselves for what
promises to be the hottest Sheriff*?
nice in the history of Fulton County.
^ 1th the date of the primary not
more than seven or eight months
away, and with the city primary of
September 30 attracting practically
Tio attention, the would-be Sheriffs
are having things politically all their
way.
Of unusual interest is the an
nouncement of Sheriff Mangum that
ie is very much in the race, which
•» directly contrary to the persistent
rumor that he would not run. His
announcement way re-affirmed Fri
day morning.
Upm the decision of Sheriff Man-
•juni rest? Plennie Miner’s entry into
he race. If Mangum sticks, to the
finish Miner will not enter, feeling
that his duty as a loyal friend to
'lie present Sheriff, whom he de-
lares has done much for him, would
prevent his running against him.
Only Strong Men In Race.
Whether the race will be between
Mangum, Mayo and Wright, or Miner,
Mavo and Wright, it is sure to be
warm. Each man already has a
strong following, while each la per
fecting a ticket of unusual strength.
In addition to this, it is quite prob
able that no one in the county has
a larger personal acquaintance than
any of thees four men.
Captain Mayo has an enviable rec
ord with the Atlanta Police Depart
ment. with which be has been con
nected sixteen years, holding the rank
of captain six years. Prior to this, he
was special sergeant three years. He
was born in Jasper County, near
Brighton, but was reared in Butts
County. He came to Atlanta in 1895
to visit the Cotton States Exposition
and liked the town to well that he
decided to make it his home, and has
been here ever since.
Plennie Miner has been with ♦he
Sheriff’s office for five years, and has
won friends by the hundreds by bis
genial personality and the ability dis
played by him in handling the duties
of chief deputy. His handling of the
huge crowds attending the Frank trial
drew many complimentary remarks.
He hails from Gwinnett County,
where life as a farmer boy made him
grow tall and gave him muscles to
match.
Wright Has Long History.
Chief Deputy City Marshall L. O.
Wright has been a resident of Atlanta
.'ourteen years. He had a good polit
ical career behind him, serving as
Sheriff of Newton County six years,
i u- knows the political game like an
■strologer know? the stars, and has
•cquired an acquaintanceship here of
cmense proportion*. He has not
.■r' ted his ticket, out in his formal
• < moment has named Walter C.
recce as his chief deputy. Law-
r is well known in Atlanta. He
« been general manager of the
' -view Floral Company, twenty
.Sheriff Mangum is now serving his
ird term. He carries a few more
eafs than his opponents, but his
nerves are steady and lie can take his
revolver and pluck a half-dollar at
;•» paces. He is a Confederate ret
ro n. enlisting in March, 1862. and
fighting throughout the last three
\ears <>f the war. He was only c nx-
tcen years of age when he enlisted.
He was horn in Fannin County.
Sheriff Mangum, in making ids an-
nouncem* n% declared that he knew
there was some sentiment against
him but that he had only done hi*
duty
Mangum Defends His Record.
‘•Some sentiment has been raised
*ga1mt me because I do not hand-
tiff my prisoners, but I do not be
lieve There is u right-thinking man
in Fulton County who will enter
tain a prejudice like this against me.”
vaid the Sheriff. "T did not handcuff
Leo M. Frank, neither did I huml-
, uff Jim Conley or Newt Lee. As a
matter of fact, I have never hand
cuffed but two men in all my time
in the Sheriff’s office.
“There was some criticism because
l accompanied Frank personally and
because he was carried from the jail
ro the rourthou5-*e in an automobile.
My reason for escorting him was tliai
T felt it was my duty. There had
been threats made against him and
T felt that if any of the Sheriffs’
force was to be exposed to harm that
I should take that risk upon myself.
The automobile belonged to one of
the deputies and did not cost the
our.ty anything, while as a matter
of fact. 1 walked Frank three or four
time.w
■■Tiie only time I ever handcuff
men is when a long string: of prison
ers. is taken to the courthouse on
Monday mornings, when we have
them on a long chain. This saves
the county fully $60 for each trip,
as it wouid be necessary to have at
!en-=t thlrtv more men acting as
guards, while we now use six fur the
handling of these prisoners.
Miner Lo/al to His Chief.
Plennie Miner has been urged by
, long l ! st of friends to set into the
,-ioe but unless Sheriff Mangum
drops out he will be found fighting
i,,r his present chief.
•I would be an ingrain if I ran
■igainst Mr. Mangum," said Mr. Miner.
If I have any ability as a Deputy
Sheriff it has been ac.julred by the
opportunity he has given me. for he
gave me a job when I needed one.
If lie runs I will be out working
for his re-election; if lie doesn’t. I
Will be in the rate. To be perfectly
plain I wouid go out and shovel
,-oal at a dolUr and i half a day
before I would run against Mr. Man
gum, for lie Is one of the best friends
' have.”
captain Mayo will probably an
nounce ills tirke' of deputies some
■ ime in the next two or three weeks,
■fe already has several lined up, but
doesn't cafe to make them public yet.
Indications are that the primary
will be held in May, a decided teiHi-

Oil FEAR OF RAINS
Good Class of Commission House
Buying and Short Covering
Cause 10 to 14-Point Rise.
NEW YORK, Sept. 13.—Trading was
fairly active at the opening of the cot
ton market to-day and first prices were
1 to 8 points higher than the previous
close.
There was not much in the cables to
attract attention, but the presence of a
strong low barometer off the coast sug
gested further heavy rains In the south
west and central belt over Sunday. It
was this feature which explained much
of the early trading. There was a much
more buoyant feeling in local specula
tive circles.
After the call prices rose 12 to 20
points from the opening range. On the
rise October was carried to 13.16, De
cember to 13.10 and January to 12.99.
Other positions crossed the 13c level.
The advance was based on a good class
of commission house buying and short
covering. Spot interests also bought.
At the close the market was barely
steady, with prices at a net advance of
10 to 14 points from the closing quota
tions of Friday.

The market around the close yester
day had a better tone than for some
time and the bull element is advising its
friends to come Into the market at
the present level. The argument is that
the world’s need will be more than the
crop at the rate of consumption of the
past season. There is a feeling, how
ever, among some very conservative
people that if this is a bull market we
need not expect it to run away just
now in the face of the pressure of spot
cotton, which must naturally coin© in
the next week.
• • *
Our telegraphic advices from the
South denote that the weather has been
more favorable during the week, rain
having been quite general with the pre
cipitation heavy at some points. Cotton
has been benefited. Picking Is now
under way in most localities, but was
1 interfered with in Texas by the heavy
; rains. The movement of cotton in that
State has been retarded by the wet
weather.—Financial Chronicle.

The New Orleans Thnes-Democrat
says: When Friday’s cotton market
closed both talent and trade went home
believing Congress will enact a scientific
law covering contract trading. Whether
such belief is well founded remains to
be seen, but the news they had yester
day was to the effect that tHe confer
ence is expected to amend the Clarke
tax to make it apply to all future con
tracts not in conformity with Hon. Her
bert Knox Smith’s recommendations.
Should" the conference take such action
and should the measure then become a
'aw both producer and consumer will
benefit through the elimination of
manipulation from the future market
The business of the cotton merchant will
prosper because the trade usefulness of
nis hedge will be greatly improved.
The future broker will gain rather
than lose, "because the standing of the
market will be raised. Early in the
session the talent acted on unfavorable
advices from Washington, on big crop
talk, on bearish trade reports from Eu
rope, and on reports from Galveston
that ocean freight room was going beg
ging. afid that cotton room for Bremen
could be had at the low price of 30c a
hundred pounds.
“Western weather is, ut the moment,
exerting a mixed influence. Heavy
rains have fallen all over Texas and
Oklahoma. In some cases these rains
justify the belief that renewed fruiting
will increase the crop outturn, in others
they inspire some fear as to the effect
on the grade.”

J. B. Turner, of Memphis, has the
following on the condition of cotton for
the week, ending September 12:
“The weather for the week was more,
favorable to cotton than in either of the
preceding weeks. Rains fell generally
throughout the Western belt, and more
or less irregularity in Eastern States
Temperatures were lower. The rain
was of benefit in all sections and a note
of improvement is sounded by cor
respondents In most States.
“It is certain that late bolls wi'l grow
to larger size and return a greater
amount of lint as a result of moisture,
and in this manner is the greater ben
efit derived. Over the greater part of
Texas and Oklahoma all the fields ex
cept lowldnds had been dried out by the
heat and drouth preceding the rains
and these can't apnroximate the real
rainfall, however profuse It may be. ex
cept at too slow a pace to mature be
fore average or even late frost dates.
“The crop in Alabama and the Atlani
tie States has been improved by the
lain wherever they were heavy enough
to wet the ground. There are sections,
however, where the precipitation has
been uuffe light. Returns are irregular,
and while some cotton, is turning out
quite well, some of it is young and has
not matured a normal amount of fruit
foi e season.
“Cotton is openmg rapidly every
where. and with lower temperatures and
drv weather next week great progress
will be made in picking.”

Week Review of
The Cotton Market
NEW YORK, Sept. 13. — The
principal feature in the cotton
market during this week was the pub
lication by the Government Census Bu
reau of its first ginnors’ report of the |
new season, which showed that up to
September l, 794,000 bales had been |
ginned, compared with 731,000 up to the
same period in 19.12, and 771,000 in 1911.
The figures, while of record propor
tions. were not a surprise and had 111- |
tie or no influence on market fluetua- j
tbrns a s the heavy ginning was attrib
uted to the abnormal conditions due to
premature opening of cotton, caused by •
the excessive heat and long drouth: anq
may be construed as a bullish argument i
gather than bearish as reports from one
section of Texas say that the crop will
be entirely finished picking and gin
ning within the next three or four weeks
Of course, at this time of the year
deterioration in all vegetation is natural,
but the extent of the deterioration is
due largely to maturity and development
of any growing plant, so that while (he
next October Government condition re
port - will naturally describe deteriora
tion. private advices say that the cot
ton plant has gone backward very much
In the past two weeks or since the
Government report made up to Angus.
25.
Pearsall's new agency calls attention
to the tact that the rainfall for Texas
during the month of August showed an
average of only .26 of an inch, or 1.15
inches below normal. The average rain
fall for July and August (combined) in
Texas, they say. is the lowest on record
for the two months.
The large crops of Texas have been
made on very heavy rainfall, notably
the crop of 1912, when the total Texas
yield was 4.862.000 bales, while this
year, as mentioned above, the rainfall
in Texas for the past two months seems
to have been very short and certainly
prospects from that State are regarded
as verv poor. Estimates for the yield
from Texas vary from 3,500,000 to 4,2<*0.-
000 bales, and some most conservative
parties insist that the crop will be un
der 4.000.000 bales.
In Oklahoma the same condition is
said to prevail. The crop last year was
1,051,000 bales; estimates this year range
from 500.000 to 700.000 bales.
Arkansas last year produced 820.000
bales, estimates now are from 700,000
to 800.000 bales.
Conservatively, those who are Willing
to len<] themselves to figures at this
time, claim that the crop is so ad
vanced, on account of heat and drouth,
that it is all made and is as easily esti
mated now as it will be in other States
the first of December, and place the
shrinkage in Texas, Oklahoma and Ar
kansas from 1,200,009 to 1,500,000 bales
with a possible further shrinkage in
Mississippi, on account of the ravages
of boll weevil. This State made 1,402.-
000 bales last year. It is claimed this
will be reduced. Alabama made 1.390.-
000 bales last year; many seein to think
this will be reduced
Georgia produced 1,920.000 bales last
year; some claim this State will make
2,500,00ft hales this year.
In South Carolina the crop last year
was 1.281,000 bales: some claim that
South Carolina will make 1,500,000 bales
thin year; that is maximum
North Carolina made 974,000 bales last
year. These figures will probably stand
for this year.
So the increase claimed in prospect for
Georgia and the Carolina* may be as
much as 800.000 bales; therefore, those
who think the crop of 1913-1914. which
we are lust beginning to gather, will tail
short of last year’s yield, when the total
crop was 14,167,000 bales, have quite a
decided margin in their favor, ranging
anywhere from 400.000 to 700,000 bales.
Other parts of the holt other than the
western section, where drouth has done
so much damage will be more or less
affected by the date of frost; therefore,
the next few- weeks will tend to jnore
clearly fix the prospective yield; but
conditions are such that a small crop,
compared with the world's consumption,
is in prospect and with 14,000,000 bales
for America, prices will rule on a higher-
basis
The increase in spindles last year and
those coming into operation shortly
make a decided showing, so the con
sumption in Europe will probably In
crease over list year, while the con
sumption in Europe <.f American cotton
will no doubt increase.
The political situation in Washing
ton is still a matter of grave concern.
The passage of the tariff bill will) the
Glarke amendment attached will work
irretrievable wrong and hardship on the
producers of America's greatest com
modity, and a commodity of which the
largest proportion is exported. This is
proving a disturbing element, and until
it is out of the way it will be ven dif
ficult to forecast the trend of prices,
as the passage of the bill with the
Clarke amendment, we firmly believe,
will mean disorganization and depres
sion in prices, and leaVe the markets
for American cotton to Liverpool and
Bremen. Strong protests to your Con
gressmen may induce them to study
your interests by repudiating ^ the
amendment.—N. J,. Carpenter & Co
