Black rust reports from Texas and Hessian fly damage In Ne braska tendeded however to check the decline. Prices opened l-Bal-4 off to 1-S up, hardened a trifle, then made a decided downshoot. Corn weakened with wheat but rallied on continued adverse weather in Argen tine. Opening prices which were 1-8 lower to a like advance, followed by a setback all arc and but afterward there was a moderate upturn. Bullish crop advices from Illinois brought good support for oats. Provisions developed firmness on meager hog receipts. Subsequently the wheat market re covered. helped by unfavorable egop re ports from Hungaria and from Rouma n:a, and because of dry weather in western Canada. The close, neverthe less. was weak at half net decline. Fear that domestic receipts would soon fall off brought about a furthet- advance in corn.

Such initiative as the market had came prncipally from abroad, whqpe sentiment was more impressed than here with the Mexican peace prom ise and the passage of the Irish Home Rule bill without disorder. The foremost FYench financial au thority holds that the Mexican situation has been largely responsible for the slackening of economic progress and of financial activity in the world at large, which measures the financial Importance attached n France to the prospect of settlement.* The New York gold exports also have helped to clear the atmos phere abroad. There was* some subsidence of crop scare over Hessian fly damage and hope fulness was maintained over trade re vival in the second half of the year. Some lines of manufacturer reported all inquiries In band for thryt period. The steel trade still failed to show concrete evidence of the expected betterment. Th supreme court’* dcision in the “tap line’’ cases threatened delay in the rate decision. Steps to investigate other railroad financing offered prospects of more embarrassment aklr* to that of New Haven. ADIRONDACK FOREST FIRE. Syracuse, N. Y.—Reports from Tup per Lake in the Adirond&cks say a forest fire is threatening the state forestry plantations In the vicinity of Cross Clearing. The fire has already swept over about 300 acres. Another fire Is raging at Bluepond. about three miles north of Tupper Lake. This fire has traveled a mile. Large forces of men are fighting the flames. JUMP IN COTTON WNSJXCiTIie Following Gov’t Report Ad vance Was From $1.50 to $2 Per Bale Above Friday’s Closing. New York. —The first government crop report of the season caused an excited j advance in the cotton market today, and active new crop deliveries sold above 13 cents for the first time this season. This recent private Vejport had prepared the trade for bullish figures, but the actual report, making the percentage only 74.3 per cent., or fully 6 per cent un der the ten-year average and the low est June bureau report but two in the past twenty years, proved even more un favorable than had been expected. There was heavy realizing on the ad vance to 13.42 for July and 13.10 for De cember, or about $1.50 to $2 per bale above Friday’s closing prices, but the talk of a crop disaster and predictions of a scare among spinners brought in heavy buying orders from all directions. Excited Buying. New Orleans.—The first cotton crop condition report of the season 74.3 per cent, of the normal, was considerably lower than expected on the New Or leans Exchange, even by the bulls and heavy and excited buying followed it, putting prices to new high levels for the season and sending the October po sition to thirteen cents. NEW YORK STOCK MARKET New York.—Another statement from President Wilson in which he attributed the business depression in part to the attitude of the railroads was received with some interest on the stock ex change, but failed to exert any influence. In the absence of any business from London and Paris, where the markets were observing the Whitsuntide holi days, the fall of the French ministry was ignored. Missouri Pacific continued to move uncertainly during the early ses sion with increasing dullness throughout the Ist. The market dragged along aimlessly during the mid-session. No changes of note were recorded. Ponds were steady. The market closed heavy today. Mis souri Pacific dominated the market, dealings in that stock for the greater part of the session exceeding transac tions in any of the leaders. The result of the note etxension plan was still un settled when trading terminated at the day’s lowest level. Missouri Pacific fall ing abruptly. More gold for Paris withdrawn.

In the first hour, probably 700 people voted and the opposition to the bonds was insignificant. The day dawned cloudy and somewhat cooler than the paet'two or three days. There was much activity at the polls in each ward and a large num ber of earnest and enthusiastic work ers were busy getting the vote out. The question of whether or not the bonds would pass, resolved itself into the question of getting the vote out. for nowhere did there appear to be any concerted opposition. . Btores Close. By letter and by telephone, the M. & M. Association today reminded its more than 350 members that they should vote for the bonds and the heavy morning vote iifras due largely to the interest in the election that had been created by the M. & M., the city officials, the doctors of Augusta and a large number of other people who realized the tremendous im portance of carrying the $750,000 bond election. Between 12 and 3 o’clock the ward committees were busy getting the vote out, sending automobiles here and there to bring to the ip/rlla people who were unable to come, or who had delayed going to the polls.

JUNE COTTON CONITION IS ESTIMATEO AT 74.3 PER CENT First Report of Season Issued at Noon Todav Bv Depart ment of Agriculture. Georgia Cotton is 80 Per Cent; South Carolina 72. Washington, D. C The condition of the country is the lowest since IS7I with exception of 1903 ;uid 1907, the department of agriculture announced today. It issued statistics showing the condition on May 25th, as "4.3 per cent, of a normal, or seven per cent, below the ten-year average. The low condition of the crop, it wns said, was due largely to excessive rains and exceptionally cool nights in cen tral and northeastern Texas, eastern and southern Oklahoma, and south western Arkansas, which hroifght the condition percentage in those r states down' to 65, 68 and 79, respectively. In Texas many farmers were obliged to re-plant, several times. No estimate of the acreage planted to cotton will be made by the depart ment until July 31st. Unofficial esti mates of the acreage have placed it from 3.5 per cent, decrease to 1 pef cent, increase. Washington.—The newly planted cotton crop of the United States showed a condition on May 25 of 74.3 per cent, of a normal, the United States Department of Agriculture’s crop reporting hoard announced at noon today in its first condition re port of the season which always is awaited with great interest by cotton growers, textile manufacturers and cotton dealers. This condition, com piled from the reports of the corre spondents and agents oT the depart ment's bureau of statistics, compares with a condition of 79.1 per cent, on May 25 last year, 7,8.9 per cent, on the corresponding date in 1912, 87.8 per rent, in 1911, and 80.4 per cent, the average condition for the past ten MAY WAS DRYEST MONTH EVER KNOWN IN AUGUSTA Never Has Any Month Here Been So Dry in Over Forty Three Years. Total Precipitation Was But .06 of an Inch. Yesterday’s Shower Only Hundreth of an Inch. May, 1914, was the dryest month ever known in Augusta. This Information came officially this morning from Ihe local offic ( . of the Weather Bureau, Forecaster Kmlgh having just completed the monthly weather summary. Tho total amount of rain that fell hero during last month was not nearly a tenth of an Inch —to be accurate, exactly six one-hundredths was ail that was captured in the weather man’t gauge on top of the Federal building. These few drops camo dear, as they are making the farmers pay for the loss to their crops In dollars and cents. Next to May the dryest month ever known In this aeclion was October, 1886, which is anyway a dryer month than May. The normal rainfall here for October is 2.33 Inches, while that for May is 3,23 inches. The dryest May, excepting May 1914, was recorded in 1898, when the The Manicure Lady By William F. Kirk. "Wilfred met a Kent the other night that Is the editor of a religious paper," said the Manicure Lady. "The two of them seemed to get along grand. T guess Ibecatise the editor told Wilfred to write a little poem about leading a good life. He gave Wilfred the check for the poem In advance, and now poor brother Is wor ried to death, because he ain’t used to writing anything like a sermon, and, goodness knows his dally life ain’t no running brook by which to go by. He asked father last night to give him some idee, hut t e old gent was hist as mneli up in the air as Wilfred, so brother final ly wrote this little poem. He says ho don’t think he has earned the check, but It solnds ail right to me. Listen, Oeorge: "I always felt that each man should, As through his life he wanders, Spend most of each day tn being good And refrain from making blunders. The little time that we are here T T pon this round earth rambling Should not be spent In drinking beer And In various sorts of gambling. "How good It Is to be so good That everyone does respect you And keep away as good men ehould From things which are liable to wreck you. I think ell men should he as good As I would be If I only could." "It’s a good thing that he got his check first for that poem," said the Hear Harher, "or he would never have got It. Don’t he feel ashamed none, to trade that minor league stuff for a cheek?" "It was only a threc-dollar check,” exp’nlned she Manicure Lady. "Them weekly papers don’t pnv much for poetry, and Wilfred said that he figured he had gave them three dollars' worth. Maybe he has. hut I don't know enough about poetry to know. The main fault 1 can see Is that the part about being good sounds kind of faint hearted, about the way Wilfred would act If he was starting out to he good himself. I don't suppose It makes much difference, though. Peo ple are going to he good If thev want to, without reading no poetry telling thsrn where to get off I never learned none to my goodness from reading veraes about It. It was always a sort of tuition with me." "I am good some of the time my self,” said the Head Rarher, ‘Aind 1 gueas all the good part of me la what 1 learned when I was a kid. My mother used to keep me pretty straight, and when her talking to me didn’t do any good, the old gent knew where some wil low switches grew, end he was there powerful with them. So It wasn’t very hard for me to he good.’’ "I always feel better after I heve did some good deed, Oeorge," declared the Manicure Lady. "A kind of culm feeling comes stealing over me, and I seem like I was being lifted up shove the earth. 1 think doing good Is like riding In a aero, plane--they both take you above the mean things of life, and you seem to (lit away on fleecy c'ouds through them blue heavens There comes that old wart to have hls nails did.

AT 18 25 J 1 8 15 22c cotton jrms week New Orleans. It was a week of ad vances In the cotton market, although profit-taking by satisfied longs and by Lings who did not rare to carry their cotton over the coming bureau report on condition was something of a weight to ward the end of the week. The best prices were reached on Thursday when the market stood 40 to 51 points over Inst week's close and the lowest prices were made on Monday when the market was five to seventeen points under last week’s finals. The net results of the week’s trading were a gain of 26 to 37 points. Thu continued rains in Texas, the drouth In portions of the Eastern belt and general belief In n bullish rondl t'on report were the main bullish In fluences. Against the market was the Increasing long interest which bears maintained seriously weakened the tech nics! position.

Most bulls look for rather JawMM&fMaUr- Bearish estimates arc n round 80. Probably it will take n report of under 78 to cause much of an advance. More rains In tin* Western belt and continued dry weather in the Atl&ntlcs would cause renewed buying this week because of the crop damage that would result. Any change for the better In the weather probably would be the sig nal for heavy selling for both accounts. CHARLESTON & WESTERN CARm livTn rap w«Y CO. (Effective May 31, 1914.)
