A moderate demand after the call served to put prices to a level seven to nine points up. About 2.000 May notices were issued and quickly stopped. The market con tended with much "realizing but recover ed, and at noon was eight tothirteen points up. NEW YORK COTTON New York.—Higher cables and a con tinuation of unsettled weather in the South caused renewed buying in the cotton market today. The opening was steady three to six higher with all ac tive positions making new high ground. Business was active and general. Real izing checked the advance and fluctua tions were somewhat irregular right after the call with prices easing off three or four points from the best. Prices eased hack to about Saturday’s closing figures under realizing after the close of Liverpool but the detailed weather reports showing more or less general rains in Texas started a fresh spurt of buying toward midday and ac tive months were five to nine points net higher early In the noon hour. cotton futures closed steady. The general list sold five to twelve points net higher on reports that buy ing orders were coming in from the southwest. Realizing checked the ad vance again around this level and caused slight reactions. High. Low. Close.

A continuous, heavy spot demand, both in this country and abroad com bined with weather conditions had the effect of inducing renewed interest in the long sidp of the market, and except for Intermittent downward fluctuations, caused mainly by profit-taking sales, the course of values has been steadily up ward. The outlook for this week is. of ne cessity. for higher prices. Even should there be better weather conditions in the western belt and the eastern cotton states should get a share of the rainfalls; it still will be argued that the crop al ready is late and a large measure of practically irreparable damage has done. Old stocks are becoming exhausted and the mill demand is largely unsatisfied. These conditions point to still higher prices than those already recorded, and leaves the bearish element almost un armed for offensive masurs. CHICAGO nRAIN MARKET Chicago. Ills.—Wheat tohay showed strength on account of continued spread of Hessian fly damage to crops. The market opened a shade off to 1-2 up and made a slight further gain but then lost virtually all of the advance on profit taking by bulls. Dry weather and firm rabies gave a lift to corn. Huying power, though, was soon exhausted. Prices started a sixteenth down to 1-4&3-8 higher and after a little additional rise fe’l back to about Saturday night’s level. Oats were governed by tho action of Wheat and corn. Provisions responded to an upturn in the hog market. Renewed strength in wheat followed reports of the rapid spread of Hessian fly and the close was unsettled. l-Bal-4 lower to 1-2 higher net. Corn broke sharply on account of increased offer ings here to arrive. The close was nervous 5-8 to 7-Salc net lower. WHEAT— Open.

Effort to Have City Send Representative to Wash ington Has Been Without Result. People Impatient. President P. H. Rice of the Mer chant sand Manufacturers’ Associa tion of Augusta, was asked for a statement this morning on the matter of the delay in beginning work on the new Augusta postoffice. President Rice stated that the M. & M. has done all it can to have work started on the new government build ing here, and said that speaking as the head of the merchants’ associa tion of the city he thought it was time the city ofifcially was doing something to have the work begun without any more delay. He said that in his opinion all that was needed was for the city to send a committee to Washington to meet the supervis ing architect and the contractor, W. H. Fissell, and urge that work be commenced right away. Tennis Tournament Scheduled To Begin This P. M.; The Drawings All was in readiness to begin the City Tennis Tournament this after noon at 4 p. m.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET New York.—An opening bulge drove ptock exchange shorts to cover, but after their immediate demands had been sat isfied the market grew quiet. Prices wete shaded slightly toward noon, but the greater part of the early advance was retained. Speculative sentiment was cheerful. There was no definite information on which to base bullish operations and board room gossip dealt chiefly with the prospects for an early decision in the freight rates case and the more hopeful feeling regarding the bus ness outlook. The market closed easy. In final trad ing the whole list sagged again Chesa peake and Ohio losing over a point. Profit-taking and activity of the bears reduced the earlier gains largely in the afternoon. New Haven was heavy and Amalgamated declined on the increase in European copper supplies. lionds were irregular. AUGUSTA QUOTATIONS GROCERIES. PROVISIONS P. 8. Ilcg. Ribs, 50-lb 12tt I). S. Reg.

There seems to be no good reason given as to what is causing the con tinued delay. President Rice says that the city is as much, if not more, interested in the building of the new postoffice as the merchants' association, and states that in his opinion the city is the proper party to take the matter in hand. An effort was made to have the city send a representative to Washington in an attempt to have the work be gun, but as yet the city has taken no action in the matter. The people are very anxious, ac cording to the general sentiment, tS see work started on the site, whict has been marked off now for many months. Saxon and R. E. Barinowski; C. C. Stubs, Jr., and G.

HUERTA TO RESIGN IF RE QUIRED IN PLAN OF PEACE (Continued from page one). to consult opinion of constitutionalist and other leaders In Mexico. Not Surprised. Washington.— The information that the Mexican delegates had been given provisional authority to submit the resignation of Huerta did not occasion great surprise here, as close friends of the Huerta government’s commis sion broadly intimated yesterday that definite elimination of the dictator probably would he one of the, first fruits of the Niagara Falls confer ence. It was emphasized today that the men chosen to act for the Mexican federal government are not pre-emi nently “Huertatlstas” but represent the broader views of best citizens of the federal districts and are desirous above all else of pacifying the repub lic. No Hint. There was no hint in official circles today as to what form of government might succeed the Huerta regime. It was expected however, that the Unit ed States would not sanction the ele vation to supreme authority of any Mexican who had gained his preemi nence "by arbitrary power.” No Rebel Army Man. Washington—" The Huerta dele gates never will agree to the selection for provisional president of any of the constitutionalist military men,” said a man who had a long talk with the Huerta representatives here yes terday. “They are not suggesting any names, however, for provisional president nor are they going to make suggestions to the mediators unless asked as they are expecting the ini tiative to come from th- three South American diplomats. They want some one, however, for provisional president who will guarantee a fair election to all parties concerned and who has not been a lilitary partisan. Of course this would not exclude a number of men who have been in sympathy with the constitutionalists, but not military leaders.” To Go the Limit. This view coincided with that ob tained from other persons who had informal talks with the Huerta dele gates here. The three Mexicans did not divulge the nature of their long conference with Huerta before their departure hut a man who knows the viewpoint of the three men said “ They are prepared to go the limit In the way of concessions and will recommend to Huerta [he reasonable thing. People who talked with the Huerta delegates said they realized the situation has progressed far be yond the Tampoci incident and that at Niagara Falls they woudl he confront ed with settling the broad problem of restoring peace to Mexico.” SENSATION FLOUR has strength, color and flavor. Every sack guaranteed. WEEK’S FINANCE REVIEW New York,—Encouragement came to the financial community 1 Ht week from several sources When the advance in strx-ks halted there was little disposi tion to give ground. The sustained prospect for crops of record-sise, better feeling in the steel trade and hope of avoiding further entanglement in Mexico were main features. Behind the day today condit on of crops l*y growing realization of the results achieved by scientific farming and wide increase of acreage. Hteel trade authorities based their new found hopefulness on anticipation of 1 (tier things rather than on actual Im provement. These views had little fun gible basis to go on, hut the stock mar ket's dec's ve response to the sentiment worked back to confirm It in the trade. Near expiration of Import int oontra* ts aroused hopes of an early buying move ment. Relief came from pitching up of week positions in the London market. There were infimntlons of the early issue of a $4^*.000,000 French govern ment loan, which lias long b»en a walte I for taking derisively the deadlock gold from New Yo r k is an aid to end Also, it Is called for by the shrinkage in the excess of merchandise exports over Imports, by the sluggish ness of demand for commercial purposes and by the reduction of legal bank re serve requirements n the new federal reserve and state laws Any consldrab e gold outflow might be expected to carry with it a down ward settling of commodity prices, with an ultimate shift In the current of the international commodity movement.
