Seaboard to Build
Howell Mill Bridge
County Orders Improvement for Car
Line—Fund Reported Started
for Pace’s Ferry Trolley.
The Board of County Commission
ers issued an order Saturday re
quiring the Seaboard Air Line Rail
way to place a new bridge over its
tracks crossing Howell Mill road at
the Evan P. Howell public school.
This improvement will be made in
order to provide a travelsble route
for the new Howell Mill road car line,
which will pass through this section.
The car line tracks will be laid at
once, the Georgia Railway and Power
Company having announced to resi
dents in the neighborhood that an or
der for the rails has been placed. The
grading through the stockyards on
Marietta street has been completed.
This line will connect with the Ma
rietta line and will stop for the pres
ent at Collier road.
Eventually the line will extend
northward to Pace's Ferry road or
Wesley avenue and proceed thence in
to the Buekhead line at Buekhead. In
fact, Pace’s Ferry road people are
reported to have started a fund to
insure this improvement along their
roa 1.
The Seaboard is now building a
concrete and steel bridge over its
tracks at Deerland station, Peachtree
road. The other bridge will be of
steel and wood, it is said.

houses were heavy sellers. After the
call the market developed fresh weak
ness and sold off to about the lowest
level made yesterday December drop-,
NEW YORK, Dec. 13.—There was a
little commission house buying at the
outset, but not enough to affect the sell
ing movement, l^ater commission houses
joined the selling crowd. The ring
crowd hammered every option on the
I list, while Mitchell bought about 15,000
j different options after the call trying to
save the list, but was unsuccessful In
his brave attempt. However, he put up
a great fight and was hacked by a num
ber of the larger spot houses. It was
said that some of Mitchell's buying was
for spot interests.

Just before the report was issued
yesterday the ring crowd generally
seemed to have sold and when the fig
ures were posted the bullish element
sturted the buying. The principal buy
ers were Weld brokers, McFadden bro

started a wTive of short covering. How

close,
Sentiment continues very bearish, but
leading bull forces are advising their
friends to buy on all breaks. The situ
ation of the local market has been
strengthened by the elimination of con
siderable more long cotton yet to come
out, and with it removed as a factor
the market will be in a better position
to respond to bullish news. The willing
ness of the larger spot interests to take
over a large part of this long cotton at
present prices shows that thhse interests
are not bearish on the market.
Week-end realizing and further liqui
dation by the ring crow'd and long line
holders sent the list still lower dui-
ing the closing hour, while tm- buying
was scarce and scattered. There was
seme scattered buying by week-end
shorts, but this w’as insufficient to
cheek the downwadr movement Bull
leaders seemed inclined to sidestep, giv
ing the manipulation its full course, on
the break. l>ecember sold at 12.90, while
January slumped to 12.75, March to
12.88 and May to 12.85. These levels
represented losses of $1.15 to $1.25 a
bale.
At. the elose the market was easy,
with prices at a net decline of 12 to 25
points fro.n the final quotations of Fri
day.
Estimated cotton receipts:
Monday. 1912
New Orleans 17.000 to 18.500 10.700

J. M. Anderson says: “Sentiment
was somewhat changed last night after
listening to the arguments of McFad
den. Brown and I lay dp ami other lead
ing hulls who claim that consumption
w’ill far exceed the production and that
the spinner is short of cotton and will
have to have it in 60 days.
“There is a great deal of speculation
on what size crop the Government’s es
timate points to. taking into consider
ation the weight of bales and the coun
try damage The hull leaders are pre
dicting a steady advance from present
five's, but I do not anticipate a run
away market'.’’

John McFadden is bullish to the core.
Immediately after he arrived from Liv
erpool yesterday, he came on the floor
ami started to talking extremely bull
ish to all his friends.

Stcrrett Tate, of N. L. Carpenter Co.,
says: “Conditions are still against an
advance. The rally yesterday following
the Government’s crop estimate, not
withstanding the figures were very bull
ish, was only limited, and. while the
market went up, the undertone was
heavy.
“The scattered long interest, which is
Immense, and which has held on so long,
is only encouraged to stick a little long
er. but the buying power is so cur
tailed I do not think it possible for an
advance to be held at this time. 1
think this little upturn has furnished
an txeeltpnt opportunity for liquidating,
or starting to liquidate long cotton.
“I believe we are going to have a
gradually sagging market for the pres

NEW ORLEANS. Dec 13. Hayward
£ Clark: “Th*» weather map show*
fair over the \j1antics and cloudy over
the rest of the belt. Rain fell all over
Texas and Oklahoma, indications are
for unsettled conditions with rain in the
western half of the belt Cloudv in the
eastern half.’’
The New Orleans Times Democrat
say? "While the Government's es
timate of the crop, exclusive of llnters.
of 13.677.000 6O0-pound hales in the
safest pointer available to the cotton
trade, the fact that It is prophecy and
not history arbitrarily determines noth
ing Nevertheless, the consuming world
will probably take the figures seriously
and act accordingly Meanwhile, the
bull, who predicates his opinions on the
• bvious relationship between apparent
supply and evident requirements, sees
nothing ahead other than higher val
ues.
"Cm the other hand, the bear, who
bases his ideas on current technical
conditions, expresses the confident be
lief that a price dip of moment will
come before the true influences. Inci
dent to probable further reductions in
the world’s net surplus of American
cotton can come into play. Hence the
division of sentiment seems as acute as
ever, in spite of the beat the Govern
ment could do to clear up the mystery
of the 19fiT-l4 supply.
"Throughout the trading following the
Bureau report. New York consistently
fought the advance, and after New
York's close New Orleans climbed high
er Liverpool's night session closed
when New York closed. But the foreign
markets are due to open this morning
practically unchanged on New Orleans
and three English points down on New
York If yesterday’s advance rather than
the New York and Liverpool closing
alone be contraated."
COTTON MARKET OPINIONS.
Hayden. Stone & Co.. “Outside con
ditions are so much against speculation
that something radical will be needed
to cause much change In prices for the
lime being.''
Miller Co.. "We continue our ad
vice to sell cotton.”
Bailey Montgomery: “We believe
that it will be difficult, to sustain the
market around a 13 cents basis.'’
E. F. Hutton A- Co.: "Market looks
as if It intended to work higher, though
ue question the advisability of following
the advance.”
ATLANTA LIVE STOCK MARKET.
(By W. II. White, Jr., of the White Pro
vision Co.)
Cattle receipts normal, with the as
sortment uneven and prices irregular,
the range being steady to quarter high
er. with better grades in strongest de
mand Trade has been reasonably ac
tive during the week, but will likely drift
into dullness with the, approach of the
holiday season, especially on medium
and plain stock. After January’ l re
ceipts are expected to be lighter, but of
a better grade, ar-i higher price levels
will doubtless be ched.
Hogs continue in good supply, with
prices barely steady to a fraction lower.
