Terminal District Auction
December 12.
Georgia and the South On
a Cash Basis
A big buyer of fertilizer was in Atlanta
yesterday.
The agents were hot on his trail for next
year’s orders.
He was hard to handle, he buys fertilizer
in train loads for his own farms.
When they couldn’t land him, they asked
him why.
He smiled and said, “next year 1 am on a
spot cash basis and will not buy till later and
will give you fertilizer men plenty of time to
think it over.”
Such dealing has never taken place in the
South before.
It is a well known fact with the Railroad
Industrial Department of a different road in
the city, also a well known fact to a number of
real estate men, that there are hundreds of
Northern concerns seeking railroad frontage
sites in Atlanta for their Southeast and South
west distributing center. There never was
such a demand for logical, close-in track front-
that minutes are dollars. In the rapid transit
age. The up-to-the-minute cost system shows
of business every minute counts, and the man
who saves the minutes, saves and makes the
dollars.
The Stocks property will change the (‘en
ter of Atlanta three blocks nearer the Termi
nal Station. Convenient to passenger and
to deal with all the important points in a dozen
States. No track frontage from now on is half
so advantageous to the shipper.

Grain Notes
The Chicago Inter Ocean says:
'The tone of the meat market was re
garded by mosl. traders as better, and
in fact the speculative atmosphere was
better all over the board.
"It is said that corn bulls would be
satisfied to have prices hold around
present levels for two weeks or more, so
as not to attract too much corn here.
It was the belief of oats traders that
the market had been sold out of late
and that the bears and elevator inter
ests realized it, as they are finding it
difficult to make purchases without ad
vancing prices."

HAYWARD & CLARK’S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 5.—Recent ca
ble information of good business in
Manchester is fully confirmed by the
large spot sales in Liverpool to-day—
which totaled 14,000. at unchanged
prices. Ever since The Times-Demo
crat’s estimate was published, spot de
mand has been active all around, show
ing the trade's acceptance of the small
er supply views.
With any support from leading specu
lators. a bull movement in the market
would have been easy to accomplish,
but for some reason this force seems to
hold off
The weather was again very bad
overnight over the western half of the
belt, with general and heavy rainfall.
The twin storm formation is still over
Texas, likely to move eastward and
cause general rains over the central
States, lollowed by severe cold wave
and^ clearing over Sunday in the west
ern States.
A large business has been done with
Liverpool and the freight rate has been
advanced 2c. Although feeling here is
bullish, the market opened about 3
points lower, owing to weakness in New
York, but the firmness of spots checked
bearish designs. Demand for spots is
steady, offerings less pressing, and firm
prices asked.

NEW ORLEANS. Dec. 5.—Hayward &
Clark; The weather map shows fair
in the western part of Texas and North
Carolina, cloudy over the rest of the
belt, general and rather heavier rains
over the entire western half, with little
precipitation in the eastern half. Indi
cations are for clearing to colder weath

formation and general precipitation
coming on central and eastern States.

The ’New Orleans Times-Democrat
says: "Frost and freezing weather put
an epd to the making of.cotton on Octo
ber 22, and ahy adverse climatic circum
stance since then could have had no
other effect than either to reduce the
yield through losses, or to lower tlis
grade, thereby reducing the spinning
value of the crop. Nevertheless, within
the past few' days some Texas esti
mates have been raised radically by a
few people whose outturn ideas in no
way chime in with those of most peo
ple who have had occasion to investi
gate the crop promise.
"Recently Europe has complained of
the abnormal. w^ste of this year’s re
ceipts in many Cases amounting to as
much as 60 and 70 pounds a bale. Sec
retary Hester . reports th6 . average
weight of bales this year as materially
lesS than last year.
"Since Sunday extraordinary rains
and floods in portions of Texas have
further greatly damaged such cotton as
remains to be picked there, and have
not helped cotton stored in bales out in
the weather around houses and on rail
road platforms.
"On December 8 the Census Rurean
will report the quantity of cotton ginned
to December I. and fear that the fig
ures will* be large has checked specu
lative support. The trade, however,
se^ms impressed by the low spinning
value of the crop, by the sudden and
complete maturity of the crop and by
ihe logic behind those estimates point
ing to a commercial crop somewhere be
tween 14,000,000 to 14.200,000 bales, and
there is good reason to believe that
consumers are now, and have been,
picking up cotton every day, and that
such purchases arc taking the place of
speculative buying as an offset to
speculative selling."

By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK. Dec. 5. -Pronounced
weakness was displayed by the Copper
stocks at the opening of the stock mar
ket to-day. Amalgamated Copper began
at 70% for a loss of % ami at ihe end
of half an hour was selling at 70%.
Utah Copper, which sold minus the %
dividend. was % lower. Ray Conso’i-
datad Copper, which sold minus a divi
dend ofTVa. was quoted at 17%, against
18% at the close yesterday. Anaconda
Copper sold down % to 34%.
Tlie general downward movement,
which set in yesterday, was continued
and the railroads and industrials suf
fered recessions. Among the other de-
Alnes were United States Steel common,
‘i, up %; Tennessee Copper, %; South
ern Pacific, %; American Can, %, and
Canadian Pacific. %
The prospect of a high rate for call
money caused some selling before the
opening of the call money market.
There were also some fears expressed
that to-morrow s bank statement would
be bearish in character.
The curb was steady.
Americans in Ixmdon were firm, but
Canadian Pacific there was heavy.

STOCK GOSSIP
The New York Commercial: "Brook
lyn Rapid Transit has good prospects
and should be more attractive as an
investment."
• • •
The New York Herald: "An/ ad
vance in the lending rate on the fetock
exchange was regarded as renew’ed no
tice from the banks that they were not
at present prepared to finanee an im
portant speculative movement."
* * *
The New' York American: “Unless in
terest can be revived, the enthusiasm
of Thursday will be sent back to cold
storage.''
* * *
The Wall Streei Journal; "Conserva
tive quarters argue that the prospect
for enactment of the currency bill in
the not far distant future is the chief
bull factor.”
• • •
The New York Sun: "Dealings are
professional and are made up quite
largely of continued efforts of the bull
ish element to force short covering "
* * *
The New York Post: "Wall street,
after a fashion, lias private intimations
that something very favorable is about
to occur at Washington."
* * •
The. New York Financial Bureau:
"Calling of loans may offer a check to
advaneing tendencies in the stock mar
ket. but on moderate recessions daily
operators should seek buying oppor
tunities for turns. The currency bill is
being put forward as a bull argument
now."
• * *
G. D. Potter says: "Higher rates for
money was the cause of the reaction
yesterday. Prices may be a little lower
some time to-day, but believe stocks
are a purchase on all recessions. Think
Utah and Union Pacific are going to
sell higher very soon."
E. E Clarke says: "Would buy stocks
on recessions. Believe developments in
Mexican situation nnd progress on cur
rency hill will be favorable to the mar
ket and after the long decline we shall
see fair rally for balanc* of month.
Would buy and hold stocks for profit
before Christmas.”
Under a Duty 19 Yrs. (
Wool Is Again Free
BOBTON. Dec. • 5.—After nineteen
years and five months under a duty,
wool is again free. Growers, handlers
and consumers of wool now must solve
the problem of whether this is best for
the interest of the country. Few are
rasn enough to predict continued indus
trial prosperity unoer the terms of the
radical bill, which has lust become law.
oment Interest centers in the
withdrawal from bond of the tremen
dous volume of foreign wool, which had
been accumulated in anticipation of the
removal of the duty.
The past week had been fairly active
with more dealing in foreign wools.
Total sales are estimated at nearly 3,-
000,000 pounds. As early as possible on
Monday the movement to remove the
foreign wool from bonded warehouses
began, and by Wednesday some houses
reported that they had secured permits
for the removal of every pound of wool
held in bond on their account.
Receipts of' wool in pounds for the
week ended and including Wednesday
are as follows:

Total receipts of 2,228,733 pounds,
compare with 1.648.096 pounds for the
preceding week, of which 889.198 pounds
were domestic.

Life’s Worth
Living in Georgia
If you prefer city life, there
are no better cities in the
world than those in Georgia.
If you prefer village life, the
smaller towns in Georgia
offer every inducement.
If you prefer country or farm
life, Georgia offers greater
inducements than any State
in the Union. Georgia lands
work the year round, from
two to five crops being gath
ered off of the same land
each year—crops that are
profitable.
Climate and Soil
The climate is such that far
mers do not have to house
stock during the winter, there
being good grazingtheentire
year. For raising cattle and
stock Georgia offers greater
inducements than can be
found elsewhere.
The soil is suited for almost
anything that grows and can
be utilized the entire year.
The prices at which good
farm land can be purchased
at present in Georgia are so
low that it is a matter of
comment—some thinking
that the land is not so good
as stated. The land is good,
but there are thousands of
acres that are now lying idle
and the good people of
Georgia are anxious for good
farmers tocome among them.
Consequently the land is
cheaper here than elsewhere.
