orderly’s quarters, $50,000;, a private
pay hospital, $150,000; extra land and
inclosure, $25,000,
A hospital built upon that plan, br
Summerall said, would be adequute
for ali purposes and a credit to the
city instead of the disgrace which
the Grady Hospital is now. The pri
vate pay hospital, he said, would
more than pay for the maintenance
of the entire hospital and would In |

Grady Called “Fire Trap.”
The recently added private hospital
has given great returns in the short
time It has been in operation, said
Dr, Summerall, which leads him to
helieve the larger institution would |
net still lurger profits, At the pres
ent time they are unablie to cuare for
more than one casc in ten at the pay
hosplital, I
Dean W. £ Elkin, of the Atlanta
Medical College, outlined the lmme
diate necessity of a new hospitul,
“The Grady Hospital iz inadequate,
a fire trap, unsanitary and a men
ace o all patients and the general
public,” he sald. *They can’t nllcndl
to even a small part of the cases,
There are aboul twenly ambulance
calls every day and with the present
facilities 1t is limpossible to answer
only two or three of such burry-up
calls At present there is no ma
ternity hospital g Atlanta for colored
women. It is a deplorable fact, vel
negro woinen have been picked up oh
the street in serious condition, be
cause of their inability to get medi
cal attention anywhere in the city.”
Mayor Promises Help.
“A modern hospital would be one
of the biggest assets of the eity and
would do much to advertise Atlanta
Other ¢ities not much larger are now
erecting hospitals costing as high as
six million dollars, Why can not At
lanta spend at least a million dollars
to hold her own? A munict
pal hospital would benerit all and the
taxpayers should be willing to stand
the small additional expense.”
Muayor Woodward promised his aild
in securing the bond issue and sald
he would fight for the passage of the
proposition should it be placed before
the voters.
Colonel- Robert J. Lowry, who has
heen a trustee of the Grady Hospital
since its erection 20 years ago, told
of the necessity for new quarters,
Colonel Lowry told of the beginning
of the Grady Hospital, Only $6,000
was donated by the city and the bal
ance was raised by private subscrip
tion, he said.
: Question of Bond Issue,
e question of whether the bond
isswe shoyld be submitted to the vot
ers together with the numerous other
bonds which come up at the next
clection, ur separately, was fully dis
cussed It wag suggested by Mayor
Woodward and others that the hos
pital bonds be separate, to allow the
volers to express their desire more
clearly as to whether the hospital is
wanted \' iwo-thirds vote is neces
sary for the passage of the bond ques
tion. The committee of five appointed
will attempt to decide this matter,

Seventeenth Regiment Leavesi

Lefore returning to Fort McPherson.
The regimental equipment, includ
ing the hospital supplies, the wagons,
stock, camping equipment and com- |
missary and quartermaster's supplics,
was sent ahead of the regiment in a |
¢pecial train that left Atlanta on the
Southern Wednesday afternocon at .'.l
o'clock
T'he equipment train carried 81 en- ‘
listed men and three officers; and ““fl
under the command of Captain C. B,
Stone, Jr. These soldiers comprised |
the machine gun platoon, the x-(-gi—!
mental detachment, teamsters and |

Railroads Caused Delay. |
The first and second trains will be
routed over the Southern for New
Orleans, via Birmingham, and from
New Orleans will be sent over the
Southern Pacific to Eagle Pass. The
third train will go through Montgom
ery to New Orleans and thence u\.‘vl'j
the same route as the two prm-:-d~j
ing it.” |
FFort MePherson has been alive with
the hustle and bustle of preparation
since the official marching orders were
received a week ago to-day. For two
or three days, however, the regiment
has had its equipment in such shape
that it could have left at a moment’'s
notice, and most of the delay has
been on account of the inability of the
railroads to have the necessary trains
ready,
The “town” of Fort McPherson
turned out en masse to see the sol
diers leave Thursday, and several
hundred people went out from Atlan
ta for a last look at thie men who have
been familiar sights on the streets of
the city for the last eight years
Soldiers Well Liked Here.
They will be missed in Atlanta-—
both officers and enlisted men. The
officers have adorned many a social
function, dancing with the grace that
seems to be the heritage of ihe army
oflicer and have captivated the licart
circles, |
.\tlan*n, both from a bhusiness and .'\]
social standpoint, is sorry to see the.
regiment leave. The officers have |
made & host of friends among llu-'
best known men in the city, and Lhé‘
general good character and intelli
gence of the enlisted men has given
the regiment the pame, in army cir
cles, of being the “high-brow regi
ment of the service.”
Expressions of regret that they are
to leave Atlanta, possibly never to
return, were freely made by officers
of the Seventeenth Thursday. Vir
tually every one declared that if given
their choice they would choose Fort!
McPherson in preference to any other
army post in the United States. |
Expect to Return. |
Most of them seemed to think the
regiment would return to Atlanta af- |
ter a few months’ service on the bor
der, basing this belief on the I‘u(-li
that the War Department gave both
officers dnd men orders to leave mm‘
wives and personal belongings in|
Atlanta. ‘
Major George W. Martin declared |
that there is little grounds for the
rumors that the regiment is to be
ordered into foreign service after its
duties on the border are completed.
He expressed the belief that even the
Secretary of War has not determined
what disposition will be made of the
regiment. ‘
“We are all hoping that the regi
ment will be sent back to Atlanta ar
ter we get through patrolling the bor
der,” sald ‘yflm‘ Martin, “and the
fact that e have been directed to
leave our families here gives us
grounds for believing that such will
he the cas® We have no reason to
helteve that we will he ordered into
foreign service or to another fort”
Major Martin Praises Atlanta.
Major Martin pal!d a big tribute to
Atlanta before he entrained for the
Southwest,
“KEvery man in the regiment, I
think, is sorry to leave Atlanta,” he
sald, “although naturally they are
pleased that they have a chance to
g 0 to the front. Atlanta has treated
us wonderfully; in fact, the manner
in which Atlanta treats army men
has caused Fort Mciherson to hecome
the favored army post of the country,
“Every officer wiskhes to he attached
to the SNeventeenth and Fort Mc-
Pherson, and I understand that the
War Departiment is tairly swamped
with requests for transfers from
other parts of the country to Atlanta
- “"KEvery one of the men, from the
highest officer to the latest recruit,
‘has a big place in his heart for At
lanta We all wish to be returned
here when our duties are finished on
the border.
Guard of Fifty Left,
“There are few places in the coun
try where soldiers are shown the
courtesies the men of this regiment
have recelved in Atlanta, The hos
pitality of the South is evident at a!l
times In other cities, which have
HITY POSLR, army men are sometimes
considered more or less of & nulsance,
but in Atlanta we ure all egotistical
enough to believe that the people like
s and like to have us in thelr city.
And we like to be here.”
The four trains carried a total of
886 men and officers, leaving 50 men
at the post under command of Mwjor
L. F, Garard, as a guard, The prison
ers who have a few days to serve
will be left in the guardhouse until
thelr time expires and then probably
will be discharged fromn the army,

HAYWARD & CLARK'S
DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLISANS, March 13.—Liver
pool showed strength with futures 3 to
4 points higher: spots 7 points h!.her;‘
sales, 14,000 bales. In the face of this‘
continued and active spot demand, the
announcement in the press of poor and
declining trade sounds like a story
aimed at the holders of raw material
on our side. :
The Census report published the fol
lowing this morning: 4,758,395 tons nti
cotton seed crushed and to be crushed
from the crop of 1913, compared with
4,589,508 in 1912 and 4,921,073 in 1911,
Total linters for crop 629,019 bales in
1013, against 602,324 in 1912, and 566,276
in 1911,
These figures show how much closer
the delinting of seed is practiced, and,
hence more seed crushed. The amount
of linters is no guide to the size of the
crop as in the 16,500,000-bale crop of
191{-12; linters were 36.000 less than in
last year's crop of 14,000,000,
‘The following advice from Texas at
tracted attention: It states that some
cotton that was damaged by bad weath
er in the bale was reopened and regin
ned, which increased the ginning fig
ures, 'This also applies to Oklahoma.
Qur market opened about 5 points
higher and ruled quiet. The galn was
108 t on dullness, as traders are walting
for to-morrow's report. The market is
in good shape technically for the report,
which i# expected to_show between 14.-
100,000 bales without linters. The final
Census returns last year without lint
ers were 13,489,529 bales.

The Chicago Inter Ocean aars: "S{)e
cialists in wheat said that the market
would have had a good decline had it
not been for the strength in corn, but
others are looking for a revival in the
export demand and believe that bears
will be disappointed over the breaking
of the dry weather in the Southwest.
“Sentiment on corn was 8o unani-|
mous'y bullish last night that a num
ber of conservative traders were inclined
to look for a small satback, believing
that the technical pof" n in the market
was much weakenad W yesterday's ad
vance, but the best posted operators
said they saw nothing weak in the sit
uation and strorgly advised buying in
case of a break.”
