To tho People of Fulton County: I am a rnndldate for the court of appeals at the Democratic primary of October 3, and respectfully solicit your support. I have lived In Atlanta forty-four 1-ears, and my record, both public and private. Is known to you. The information has come to me that statements are being made In dif ferent aectlona of Georgia that I voted for McKinley In 1896. The statements are false. 1 have always been a Demo crat, and have never voted the Repub lican ticket. I have also learned that statements **• are being made In different sections of the state that my candidacy Js not meeting with fftvor In my own home. These statements are fnlse. I am as well backed at home as any candidate i.■ I hat • rcfo-i-.l allow my friends to circulate petitions Indorsing me. taking the ground that If I was not well enough known In Georgia without this I ought not to be in the race. These falsa statements are designed to Injure me on the eve of the election without giving me the opportunity to reply. I ask you to rebuke them by your votes. W. R. HAMMOND. Additional Market News.

STOCKS REVIEWED BY NEW YORK SUN PEACHTREE PAVING L BE DELAYED BY CLOSING BARS TWO RAWLINS BOYS ARE AGAIN RESPITED TEDD Y, JR., SIDESTEPS ARREST IN BEAN CITY Streets Committee Decides to Hold Off for a While. /Boston, Sept. 39.—After a series of jlystertoua and excited conferences be- veen his attorneys and the heads of Boston police force, Theodore kooeexelt, Jr., was permitted to go back to Cambridge this morning free of any 'further danger of arrest or annoyance, I resulting from the student fracas of /Thursday night In Boston common. The police arc still trying to find who rrlppcd or otherwise threw and serious- young Roosevelt knows, but since he won't tell and has proved that he did not do It himself, they have no fur ther ground on which to hold him. As a result, no warrant was Issued today against the president's son on the charges preferred last night by Police Commissioner O'Mara. HOW EUROPE VIEWS ACTION OF MR. TAF1 London, Sept. 39.—Europe is follow ing with critical eye the developments In the Antilles, and there Is no modi fication of the view that the result of the complications Is American absorp tion of Cuba. Senor Palma comes In for universal condemnation, the Madrid press taking the ground that his Is a "traitor to Spanish traditions” In Cuba, the the ory being that something less creditable than personal pride or dignity was be- hind hli readiness to wreck the Cuban state. Naturally Spanish Journals are Inclined to give the Cubans the benefit of any doubt, and they resent Mr. Taft's “Implied recognition of a lot of negro desperadoes as belligerents," bin they declare that what has hnppcned was a foregone conclusion, "the only remarkable reature of the case being the long postponement of the climax.” British opinion regrets Mr. Taft's promise to withdraw from the Islnnd when new elections have been held, and a properly constituted Cuban gov* eminent has been set up. They think he should have confined himself to a promise to retire when political Insti tutions had been established upon a permanent basis. French sentiment, though friendly to the Spanish element In Cuba, Is sym pathetic with President Roosevelt. Ger many looks on with more anxiety than any other European power. The Ger man colonial party la exceedingly Jeal ous of American advances southward. If the property of Germans or Britons In Cuba Is destroyed, the attempt to draw either the London or Berlin gov ernments Into the fracas will be unsuc cessful. Neither power will move a ship to Cuban waters, that would not have gone there Irrespective of the In surrection. In the British press tho prevalent no tion Is that Cuba Is not one whit better qualified for self-government than Lu- xnn, and that the Cuban negro will bo as difficult a proposition In the long run as the average Filipino. CAPT. 8WARTZ TO RETIRE AFTER LONG SERVICE. Special to The Georgian. Decatur, Ala., Sept. 29.—The steam or Buck Lindsay, which has been on the Tennesseo river here for some time, will now go to southern waters. Her owner, Captain G. IV. Bwarts, has sold her to H. T. Hamilton, of Mnrgnn City, Ln„ and she will be In the trade on the Mississippi river. She left here for her new home loaded with cedar poles. Captain Swnrt* wilt retlro from steam boat Ing. Corporations Chartered. Special to The Georgian. Montgomery, -Ala., Sept. 29.—Tho secretary of Btate has been Informed of the following new corporations be Ing organised: Thomasvlllc Manu facturing Electric Light and Power Company, capital stock 111,000; Incor porators, W. A. Scott, Jr., John 8. Hen son and others. First Baptist church of Thomasvllle: Incorporators, James 8. Cunningham, Thornes Kimbrough and others. NOW FOR THE “HOME-COMERS” Georgia is the best state and Atlanta is the finest place on earth to live, when you come to think of it. We sell the best vehicles and finest home-made har ness ever offered at the lowest prices consistent with quality. That’s why Atlanta grows, likewise this fact accounts for our increasing trade, Front New Depot. 44-46 Madison Avenue EVERYBODY KNOWS” E.D.GRANE&GO. Where does Atlanta stand financial ly? There have been many estimates made and many guesses ventured. The answer to moat la "In the hole.' 1 But nothlne definite can be ascer tained until after Tuesday, next, when the nurftber of whisky licenses to be permanently revoked will be settled by the special committee. One of the effeots the clean-up will have la the further delay of a paving for Peachtree street. At the meeting of the streets com mittee Friday afternoon It was decided not to touch this matter until after the apportionment sheet had been straightened out. Friday Comptroller Goldsmith said that nothing definite could be said about the apportionment sheet or how the city stood, as no one would know the number of licenses which would be revoked until the open meeting was held. It la believed that some fifty of the saloons will be abolished. This will cut the city revenues for this year 212,000, which amount would pay the city's share on the Peachtree paving. A plan of dividing up the deficiency and taking a portion from each of the appropriations has been discussed. If this Is done there wilt still be a chanca to get the paving this year. Their Mother Appeals Governor Terrell. to Milton and Jasss Rawlins, under sen tence to be hanged at Valdosta Tues day, October 2, were respited Saturday morning until Friday, November 2. This is the fourth resplto for them. Alt Moore, the negro, under sentence of death In Valdosta Friday, October 6, was respited until Monday, Novem ber 6. Governor Terrell sanctioned the tltlon for commutation for the two boys, and on this showing the respites were granted for two months. On the ground that J. G. Rawlins and tho negro, Alf Moore, are confessedly guilty of the murder of the Carter chil dren, the governor extended the time for the Moore execution for two months, so that the hanging* may all come close together. Mrs. Rawlins Is a stout, well-pre served woman, with traces of great sorrow In her face. When questioned she said; The only thing that has trained me In this trouble la the absolute knowl edge In my own heart that my boy* are guiltless of thla crime. On the night of the murder they were all at home with me, and knowing this I have been able to bear my sorrow. I feet that right will prevail In the end.' Rawlins Property Gont. . Since last August Mrs. Rawlins and respites -Saturday morning on appeals "T . . tnnri„ w T.hn ti ....... her two young daughter* have resided made by Attorney John R. Cooper, Mrs. Angellne Rawlins, mother of the two boys, and Esquire J. J. Jowers, of Cof fee county, father of Mrs Rawlins.

Attorney Cooper, Mrs. Rawlins and Esquire Jowers reached Atlanta Satur day morning, and at once appeared be fore the governor. A request for com mutation of sentence to life Imprison ment for the boys was first made. with 'Squire Jowers In Coffae county. Practically all the.

The beet buying, however, [came from the South, and It wns evi dent that shorts had been thoroughly, frightened over the storm damage. The ' local trade teemed Inclined to sell on; the better levels In tho latter part of, the day, but the cotton coming out in the way of profit taking was well tak en. The short Interest has undergone a material reduction during tho past two days and tha belief prevails in conservative quarters that tho techni cal speculative Mtuation Is, therefore, lea* Inviting to outside buyers than It waa a few days ago. The spot demand for cotton was fair today and the of ferings were limited, presumably on the belief among holdera that tho fo r - tlve buyers of raw material. ;lop a The gov- ore etlll expected to be a little bearish^ but In view of the damage reports now coming to hand. It Is a question wheth er the government compilations will have much effect. The cables today' were steady, and the weekly statistics were about as expected. The port re ceipts were email, and It le now be lieved that the general movemerif will continue rathed limited. On nny re cessions, It Is believed moderate pur chases for a turn may safely be made.
