TTTT ATT ANT A GEORGIAN AND NEWS.
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.
Prospective:
Chief Deputy Sheriff Plennie Miner.
Candidates for the office of Sheriff
are grooming themselves for what,
promises to be the hottest Sheriff’s
race in the history of Fulton County.
With the date of the primary not
more than seven or eight months
away, and with the city primary of
September 30 attracting practically
no attention, the would-be Sheriffs
are having things politically all their
way.
Of unusual Interest is the an
nouncement of Sheriff Mangum that
he is very much in the race, which
is directly contrary to the persistent
rumor that he would not run. His
announcement was re-affirmed Fri
day morning.
Upon the decision of Sheriff Man
gum rests Plennie Miner’s entry into
the race. If Mangum sticks, to the
finish Miner will not enter, feeling
that his duty as a loyal friend to
the present Sheriff, whom he de
clares 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,
Mayo and Wright, it is sure to be
warm. Each man already has a
strong following, while each is 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 he has been con
nected sixteen years, holding the rank
of captain six years. Prior to this, he
wag 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 so well that he
decided to make it his home, and has
been here ever since.
Plennie Miner has been with the
Sheriff’s office for five years, and has
won friends by the hundreds by his
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
fourteen years. He had a good polit
ical career behind him. serving as
Sheriff of Newtom County six years.
He knows the political game like an
astrologer knowsi the stars, and has
acquired an acquaintanceship here of
immense proportions. He has not
perfected his ticket, but in his formal
announcement has named Walter C.
Lawrence as his chief deputy. Law
rence is well known in Atlanta. He
has been general manager of the
Westview Floral Company, twenty
years.
Sheriff Mangum is now serving his
third term. He carries a few more
years than his opponents, but his
nerves are steady and he can take his
revolver and pluck a half-dollar at
30 paces. He is a Confederate vet
eran, enlisting in March, 1862. and
fighting throughout the last three
years of the war. He was only six
teen years of age when he enlisted.
He was born in Fannin County.
Sheriff Mangum, in making his an
nouncement, declared that he knew
There was some sentiment against
him but that he had only done his
duty.
Mangum Defends His Record.
“Some sentiment has been raised
againMt me because I do not hand
cuff my prisoners, but I do not be
lieve there is a right-thinking man
in Fulton . County who will enter
tain a prejudice like this against me.”
said the Sheriff. ”1 did not handcuff
Leo M. Frank, neither did I hand
cuff Jim Conley or Newt Lee. As a
matter of fact, I have never hand
cuffed but two men in all my time
in the Sheriffs office.
“There was some criticism because
I accompanied Frank personally and
because he was carried from the jail
to the courthouse in an automobile.
Mv reason for escorting him was that
I felt it was my duty. There had
been threats made against him and
I 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
county anvthing, while as a matter
of fact. I walked Frank three or four
times. . . „
“The only time I ever handcuff
men is when a long string of prison
ers is ta*ken to the courthouse bn
Monday mornings, when we have
them on a long chain. This saves
the county fully $60 for each trip,
as it would be necessary to have at
least thirty more men acting as
guards, while we now use six for the
handling , of these prisoners.
Miner Loyal to His Chief.
Plennie Miner has been urged by
a long l^t of friends to get into the
race but unless Sheriff Mangum
drops out he will be found fighting
for his present chief.
“I would be an ingrate if I ran
against Mr. Mangum,” said Mr. Miner.
“If I have any ability as a Deputy
Sheriff it has been acquired by the
opportunity he has given me. for he
gave me a job when I needed one.
If he runs 1 will be out working
for his re-election; if he doesn’t. I
will be in the race. To be perfectly
plain I would go out and shovel
coal at a dollar and i half a day
before I would run against Mr. Man
gum. for he is one of the best friends
I have.” ...
Captain Mayo will probabl\ an-
nounce his ticket of deputies some
time in the next two or three weeks.
He already has several lined up. but
doesn't care to make them public yet.
Indications are that the primary
will be held in May, a decided senti
ment iavoring an early date.

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 centrak 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. S^ot interests also bought.
At the cl ,e the market was barely
steady, with prices at a net advance of
10 to 14 points from the closing quota
tions of Friday.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. Sept. 13.—Liverpool
barely conformed to our advance yes
terday and quotes spots 1 point higher;
sales, 4.000 bales. Cables report that
the market feels the effect of hedge
selling from the Eastern States.
Weather developments overnight were
favorable. The map shows fair in Okla
homa and' west TexUS, and the rainfall
in east Texas was lighter, except in the
Palestine section. Good general rains
fell in the Central States, while general
ly fair weather continued in the eastern
btit. Indications are for clearing weath
er generally in the Western States and
Arkansas. More rain in the south Cen
tral States, followed by clearing Mon
day. Rains moviTig on Alabama and the
Atlantics over Sunday, where they are
needed after a week of dry weather.
It will become warmer in the Western
States over Sunday. No storm danger
for any part of the belt.
Our market ignored the poor Liver
pool and advanced on support based
principally on the more hopeful news
arid opinions from Washington. New
York also reported buying on the Texas
rains.
Bullish feeling continues in possession
of the market.
The market here worked up to 13.08
for December, but fell back repeatedly.
There seemed to be selling of solid
character on the reports for larger in
terests. probably on the Government
forecast of fair and warmer weather
over Sunday in Texas, Oklahoma and
Arkansas, which is likely to bring im
proved crop news early next week, and
increase the spot offerings and move
ment.
Liverpool is due 7 points higher Mon
day.
Market prospects for next week again
depend principally on political news
from Washington and weather develop
ments. Fair ami warmer weather in the
Western States and some rain in the
eastern belt and Alabama is desired.

The ’market around the close yester
day had a better lone 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 come 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
interfered with in Texas by the heavy
rains. The moyeinent of cotton in that
State has been retard°d by the wet
weather.—Financial Chronicle.

The New Orleans Times-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 tRe 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.
ShoulrT the conference take such action
and sTiould the measure then become a
law both producer and consumer will
benefit through the elimination of
manipulation from the future market
The business of the cotton merchant w'ili
prosper because the trade usefulness of
his 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
hundr£71 pounds.
“Western weather is, at 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 will 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 approximate 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 Atlan
tic States has been Improved by the
rain wherever they were heavy enough
to wet the ground. There are sections,
however, where the precipitation has
been qulTe 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
for the season.
“Cotton is opening rapidly every
where. and with lower temperatures and
dry 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 ginners’ report of the
new season, which showed that tip to
September 1, 794,000 bales had been
ginned, compared with 731.000 up to the
same period in 1912, and 771,000 in 1911.
The figures, while of record propor
tions. were not a surprise and had lit
tle or no influence on market fluctuat
tions as the heavy ginning was attrib
uted to the abnormal conditions due to
premature opening of cotton, caused by
the excessive heat and long drouth; and
may be construed as a bullish argument
gather than bearish, a* reports from one
section of Texas say that the crop will
he 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 the
next October Government condition re
port w’ili naturally describe deteriora
tion. private advices say that the cot
ton plant has gone backward very much
in tne past two weeks or since the
Government reoort made up to August
25.
Pearsall’s new agency calls attention
to the fact 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 tiie two months.
The largo crops of Texas have been
made on very heavy rainfall, notably
the <Top 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 very poor. Estimates for the yield
from Texas vary from 3,600.000 to 4,200,-
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 lend 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 1,200,000 to 1,600.000 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 seem to think
this will be reduced.
Georgia produced 1,920.000 bales last
year; some claim this State will make
2,500,000 bales 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
thii? year; that is maximum
North Carolina made 974,000 hales last
year. These figures will probably stand
for this year.
So the Increase claimed in prospect for
Georgia and the Carolinas may be as
much as 800.000 bales; therefore, those
who think the crop of 1913-1914. which
we are just beginning to gather, will fall
short of last year’s yield, when the total
crop was 14,167/8)0 bales, have quite a
decided margin in their favor, ranging
anywhere from 400,000 to 700,000 bales.
Other parts of the belt 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 more
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 last year, while the con
sumption in Europe, of American cotton
will no doubt increase.
The political situation in Washing
ton is still a matter of grave concern.
The passage of the tariff hill with the
Clarke 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 he very dif
ficult td 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. L. Carpenter & Co.

The Chicago Inter Oceana saya:
“Sentiment in the grain trade last,
night was mixed. Sentiment was rather
friendlj to wheat, but even the bulla
were not disposed to advise heavy pur
chases while the spring wheat move
ment is on,
"A number of the aggreaaive bears In
corn who sold early were buying their
corn back at the close.
Bulls on oats think they see better
things in the near future, while the
hea,rs said they saw no new outside buy
ing coming in.”
• • •
Bartlett, Frazier Company saym
“Wheat—Prices should at least rule
steady to-day.
"Com—We think there is a ,blg ouf-
stundlng short interest, which ta likely
to be covered at higher prices, as hold
ers show no disposition to liquidate
while smaller longs have sold out.
“oats The consumptive demand con
tinues of good proportion#, with Eastern
shippers buying fair quantities every
day.
"Provisions—Tackers are the best sell
ers. buying coming chiefly from com
mission houses, especially in the de
ferred deliveries.”

PROSPECTS INDICATE BIG
WINTER PRODUCE TRADE
McCullough Brothers say of the fruit
and produce market:
“The fruit and produce traffic in gen
eral has shown a decided increase, with
the market conditions active for the
last two weeks. The prospects are for a
large and satisfactory fall and. winter
business.
“Fancy apples are in limited supply.
Values are too high, as yet, to maintain
a general and liberal consumption.
“No oranges are in the market except
some scatiering remnants of California
stock, which will be ample to meet the
limited requirements until the Florida
stock begins to move.
"Some few’ Florida grapefruit are com
ing to the market, but as yet are too
green to appeal to the handler or con
sumer.
"Fresh vegetables are being fumlfched
almost exclusively by local market gar
deners at present.
“A strong demand prevails for ban
anas. resulting In advanced prices at all
points of importation. A limited de
mand prevails for lemons, with the mar
ket showing a downward tendency. The
local peach crop has been exhausted and
stock of good quality from Eastern and
Western points meets ready sale at fan
cy prices
“The grape crops in Michigan, Ohio
and New York State are reported, far
short of the average yield, which will
result in an active market at high prices.
The continued drouth in California has
affected the yield from that section, and
all varieties of California grapes that
are now being marketed are meeting
ready sale at values in excess of aver
ages maintained in past seasons.
“Irish potatoes are scarce and active,
while sweet potatoes and onions are
abundant at low prices. There is a fair
demand only for celery No cranberries
in the market us yet this season. Can
taloupes from Colorado meet ready sale
at fancy prices.
“The watermelon season is over, and
the values the post season have been
highly satisfactory from the producer
right down the line
“Fresh eggs are scarce and active.
Live poultrv Is also scarce and selling
at better prices. An average range of
values applies to dressed hens and fries.
Ducks and turkeys are short of require
ments. and value's are high No change
of consequence applies to butter, either
table or cooking stock.”
