EDWIN P, ANSLEY FORREST & GEORGE ADAIR An important lease announcement I concerning property 200 feet from the i handler Building was a feature of ! Wednesday's real estate news. The Bachelors' Domain, at No. ; 105 1-2 North Pryor street, owned by ! Jasper Newton Smith, has been leased for twenty years to J. D. Rembert for an aggregate rental of approximately 540,000, or at the rate of about $2,000 a year. C. G. Aycock, manager of the renting department of the Charles P. Glover Real Estate Agency, nego tiated the lease. Mr. Rembert will make alterations and continue the establishment as a bachelor apartment house. Possession will be given January 1. There are 44 rooms. The Bachelors’ Domain was built many years ago by Mr. Smith, who has since made his home there. It is five stories. The lot has a very nar row frontage on North Prvor street, about twelve feet. Mr. Smith’s most valuable property is now under lease, E. W. Alfriend having taken the House That Jack Built, Peachtree and North Forsyth streets, several years ago for 99 years. Third Lease Reported. Asa G Candler, Jr., has leased for the Candler corporation a ground floor space in the Candler Building Annex. No. 104 North Pryor street, to the English Woolen Mills Company This concern has asked permission o? the Building Department to erect signs costing nearly 5100, under the Massengale Bulletin System. Road Saves Great Distance. Andrews avenue, the new road being cut through from Peachtree road to Pace’s Ferry road at a point three- quarters of a mile north of Peach tree Creek, will soon be ready for paving, and promises to be one of the best thoroughfares In the county. A particular advantage which this road will have will lie in the fact that it saves nearly a mile to town for the Pace’s Ferry road colony, who now travel around by way of Buckhead. The cost of the grading and inci dental work is about $15,000. The Peachtree Heights Park Company has done about 2,800 feet through its property, and John W.

Dec. 3.—TYi sympathy with firm Liverpool cables, the local cot ton market opened steady to-day with flrst prices net unchanged to 6 points higher than the closing quotations of Tuesday. There waa a good demand for spot cotton in Liverpool. The National Gin- ners' estimate of 13.600.000 bales, ex clusive of linters, was in line with other recent estimates and was construed as bullish, but the market was very quiet, with little or nothing doing, and all the market could do was to fluctuate nar rowly. There was very little cotton for sale However, the ring crowd came in after the call and hammered the mar ket. based partly on an unofficial es timate of the Texas crop of 4,600.000 bales, exclusive of linters resulting In prices falling off 2 to 10 points from the initial range. The feature of the early trading was the selling by two brokers, one being a prominent* bull and the other who usu ally represents spot interests This class of selling was thought to be testing the strength of the market. Prices, how ever. held remarkably steady, being sus tained by scattered buying by spot in terests. During the early afternoon the market developed into complete stagnation. Out side business was very light and trading was mainly local. Sentiment continues bearish and local bears are talking lower values. However, bull leaders continue to support the market on every down ward move, believing ginnings after the forthezoming Fovernment report, due December 8 will confirm low crop Ideas. However, it is generally expected that the ginnings for the period will be around 1.600,000 bales and the total since September 1 will be between 12.- 000,000 and 12,100,000 bales, against 11,- 855.000 bales last year and 12,817,000 bales the year before. Ginnings for the period will compare with 1,555,000 bales in 1912 and 1.504,00 bales in 19JI.

By CHARLES W. STORM NEW YORK, Dec. 3.—The railroad group took the leadership In an upturn at the opening of the stock marke^ to day The tone was also helped by views of traders who held that President Wil son's meesage as a “bullish document .’’ The basis of this view was that this country would not become involved over Mexico in any sort of complications, which might cause “hard times.’’ Reports that dividend aotlon may be taken soon by the directors of the New York, New Haven and Hartford caused that stock to advance 1 point.

HAYWARD & CLARK’S DAILY COTTON LETTER. NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 3. -It Is quite clear that we are now at a period where price defense is up to spot holders. For some reason sentiment in the North is against the market Many believe that this antagonism has Its origin in the financial policy, announced by Wash ington, tending toward greater eman cipation from financial dependence on New' York. With reserves much reduced, owing to last year’s moderate crop, and a still greater deficiency in supply probable for this season, the situation appears strong enough to force higher values ultimately, provided spot holders realize their position and are able to put up the proper defense. Indications yesterday were good for a generally broadening demand and Liver pool to-day quotes two points higher with sales 12,000 bales. Futures, how ever, were lower, showing the Influence of bearish opinion in New York. First trades here were a few points higher, but weakness in New York checked sup port and soon caused a drop of 8 points. Bad weather continues over the western half of the belt, with very heavy rains In Texas. Indications are for unsettled and rainy weather gen erally for the belt. Mill takings last year for the week were 504,000 hales. Spots continue firm at quotations. A large amount of lower grades has been bought,lately, and it turns out that most of this cotton is going to Eastern mills.

CINCINNATI, Dec. 3.—T'nseasonably warm weather has prevailed over the country' during the past two weeks, and winter wheat Is having a fine growth in the greater part of the area. There is a lack of moisture in a large part of Nebraska and portions of North ern Kansas and complaints of a poor condition are received. Parts of Ten nessee and Kentucky report ground too dry' for the plant. Prospect Is that the plant will he reported in good con dition by the Government this month and with the larger acreage a splendid promise Is indicated. However, the trade plaoes very little dependence on a December condition. The winter makes or breaks the crop and of that there is no way of fore casting. NEW YORK PRODUCE. NEW YORK. Dec. 3.
