NEW v ORK eOTTON
New York.—According to estimates,
July notices were issued against some
75,000 to 80,000 bales of the local stock
early today and caused considerable
liquidation of the near months. The
same leading spot interests who were
credited with sending out the notices
were good buyers of July again, how
ever, and after opening steady at a de
cline of 2 points to an advance of 2
points, the market sold about 4 to 7
points net higher and July rallied from
1252 to 1266 Reports of continued high
temperatures in the South helped the
advance of the general list.
The buying became less active follow
ing the publication of rather bearish
week-end figures, and the market eased
off, under realizing, with active months
ruling about 6 to 7 points net higher
during the middle of the afternoon.
Reports that a prominent spot inter
est had stopped all the July notices and
the excessive temperatures shown gene
rally east of the river gave the market
a very steady tone during the middle of
the day and active months sold 10 12
points iriSt higher.

NEW YORK "STOCK MARKET
New York.—An early rise In stocks
was met by some liquidation which
speedily Resulted in material shading of
prices. Lehigh Valley was weakest of
the high-priced shares, losing almost 2
points in connection with rumors of an
other government inquiry into its affairs.
United Dry floods fell four points to 61
and Wells Fargo, whose dividend was
cut yesterday, fell six points. Kayzer
and Company lost 4. Commission houses
repoted a moderate demand from in
vestors. Despite a further decline in
exchange, another gold engagement for
Europe was reported.
Pices hardened again after mid-day,
the Harrimans returning to their best
but the list soon sagged on renewed of
ferings and vague rumors of trouble.
Steel and Amalgamated led the reac
tion and dry goods preferred made a
further decline to 54 1-2.
Bonds were steady.
The dose was strong. Following the
uncertain tone of the early afternoon,
the market gradually swung around tn
the highest level of the day in the final
hour. Leading stocks were then between
1 and 2 points above yesterday’s close.

Senator Williams Puts Pres
ident's Speech Yesterday to
Editors on Record. Ready For
the Fight.
Washington.—-“ We're ready for the
fight and we are going to fight until
we put this trust legislation through if
i.t takes ail summer,” declared Sena
tor Williams of Mississippi today in
the senate when the federal trade com
mission hill, one of the administra
tion anti-trust measures, came up for
consideration. Senator Williams de
fended President Wilson’s demand
that congress remain in session until
the anti-trust program is completed.
“We democrats meant what we said,
and we are going to stay here and
prove to the country we meant what
we said, when we promised to take the
three great monsters that threaten the
economic competition by the throat.
We did not act like fools in the tariff
matter, we did not act like fools in the
currency matter, and we are not
going to act like fools In this matter.
We are going- to be conservatively con
structive. We have legislated to pre
vent exploitation through tariff taxa
tion and to prevent exploitation
through the money trust, now we are
about to legislate to prevent exploita
tion by the industrial trustsf.”
The senator put in Ihe record Pres
ident Wilson’s speech yesterday to the
Virginia editors.
“One reason we are going to do this
thing,” he said, “is because we have a
brave and worthy captain, who knows
| how to do tilings and who knows how
to influence other people to help him
do things."

O’DOWD MATTER OP 111 SUPERIOR
COURT; CITY SEEKS AN INJONCTION
Most Interesting Case is Being Tried—Grows Out of the
Condemnation of O’Dowd Property on 9th Street—Want
Injunction Until Legislature Passes Act Authorizing Con
demnation For Easement.
The injunction proceedings brought
by the city of Augusta against' M.
O'Dowd Hons & Company to prevent
the latter from taking possession ot
property on Ninth street, but which
was condemned by the city under an
act of the legislature, which act has
been declared unconstitutional, was be
gun in the superior court today. The
C. & W C. railway freight tormina's
now occupy the land in dispute.
It will he recalled that the city con
demned the property for the C. & W.
C. for levee purposes because the
railway ireight terminals were forced
from Bay street bcause of the levee
running on that street and the city
had to provide another place for tho
terminals. The city asking the court
for a restraining order to prevent the
O'Dowds from taking the property tin
til an act now pending can be passed
by the legislature allowing the con
demnation for an easement, instead
of in fee simple.
The case is one of the most inter
esting and most important in which
the city ot Augusta has been concern
ed in many years, and it is learned that
it contains many important legal ques
tions.
A large array of attorneys faced
his honor today when the preceding!)
were begun. There were Messrs. I'-
11. Grier, of Greenwood, S. C„ general
counsel for the Cahrlenton and West
ern Carolina railway; VV. K. Miller and
C. Henry Cohen, counsel for the rail
way and city, seated at one table, and
at another, representing the O’Dowd.-,
were Messrs Hamilton Phinizy ar.d
J. C. C. Black, Jr,, and Major J. C. C.
Blaek. Other Interested parties in til*
court were Mr. Joe O'Dowd, Mr. Al
bert Anderson, superintendent of the
C. fc VV. C. railway; Mr. A. H. Porter,
road engineer of the C. & VV. C„ May
or L C. Hayne, lion. Thos, Barrett,
chairman of the Flood Commission;
Messrs Fred Pope, R, Roy Goodwin
11. 8. Gray, members of the Flood
Comntsslon and Mr. J. P. Mulncrln,
arbitrator of the O'Dowds In the re
cent condemnation proceedings.
Preliminary Discussions.
There was a great deal of prelimi
nary discussion on the part of counsel
on both sides, and finally the first point
In the procedings was settled by mu
tual agreement between Mr. Cohen
and Mr. Phinizy, to wit; that It was
tho C. & VV. C. railway that,gave to
the O'Dowds SII,OOO for certain por
tion of the latter's property under a
contract with the city, and not the
city that gave it It went down in the
court record that the money cam#
from the C. * VV. C. railway under
"a” contract with the city Instead of
under ii particular contract, as, ac
cording to Mr. Cohen, had h«n ad
mitted by the city u I the while.
Next, Mr. Cohen recited a history

HEADING OF THE BRIGHT THINGS.
“You and Jinx are lifelong friends, ate
you not?”
“We have been, hut I am going to en
gineer s quarrel with him pretty hooh.”
“Engineer a quarrel with him?"
“Yes, Ills first baby will soon be able
to talk.”
of the case going into considerable
length ;ind detail He began in 1908,
at the time of the flood, telling of tho
creation of the Fldod Commission;
on tho necessary bills enacted In 1909
by the Georgia legislature, which pro
vided for Augusta to build a levee for
the purpose of flood protection, to is
sue $1,000,000 worth of bonds for the
levee, and to condemn such property
along the river hank as would he
needed for the construction of the
levee.. He told of Ihe city trying to buy
the O'Dowd property, which was only
a small portion of the stretch from
Hawk’s Gulley to Ninth street which
was needed for the levee and that af
ter the O'Dowd'B didn’t agree to sell
the city condemned the property; that
the O’Dowds brought suit against the
city for condemning their property on
the grounds that the net of the legis
lature, under which the property was
condemned, was unconstitutional; that
after It was taken to the supreme
court here, It was taken to the su
preme court of Georgia, where the
lower court's decision was reversed
He said that the city has given notice
to the O'Dowds that the property will
he condemned again as soon as the
legislature passes an act that Is now
pending, and that the city wishes to
enjoin the O'Dowds from taking pos
session of this property until the act
pending Is made a law.
Mr Phinizy’s Statement.
Mr. Phinizy made a rather lengthy
statement from the standpoint of the
O'Dowds, and gave also some of the
history of the case, bringing out such
points as were In their favor, lie
said that the o”Dowds were public
spirited citizens and were heartily In
sympathy with the building of the
levee to protect Augusta from floods,
hut that he was of the opinion that It
it was not for this purpose the city
was attempting to enjoin the O’Dowds,
but to satisfy the C. & W. C. railway.
He mentioned the contract entered In
to botwen the C. & VV. C. and the cltj,
which provided for the latter paylrjg
to the railway company $100,090 f«!r
the porperty they would need for
I heir tracks which they removed for
the city for levee purposes, but that all
cost over SIOO,OOO should be paid by
the C. & W. ('. railway.
Here counsel for the O'Dowds asked
that the C. At VV. (!. railway, whose
counsel were present, he made by the
court a party to the present litigation.
At 1:30 o'clock Judge Hammond, at
the request of counsel for the C. and
W. C, allowed them thtrtv minutes
In which to prepare to offer their
pleadings to be made a party to tho
litigation, as they had said they de
sired to be.
It was later agreed among the par
ties In the case that the proceeding*
bo continued till Monday, July 6th.

the ending of the most remarkable

to speak a word of caution to candi
dates about, that is over-confidence.
Do not over-rate your own strength,
or under-estimate the strength of
opponents, for If you do, It is liable to
he the source of regret after the close
of the contest, should the published
vote show you that Just a little more
effort would have won the big prize.
Here is an excerpt from a letter re
ceived by the Contest Manager this
morning from a relative of one of the
candidates in the Athens Dally Her
ald’s "Shower of Gold" contest which
closed last Wednesday, showing the.
fatal effects of over-confidence:
"Many thanks for the nice prize which
Baby won in the contest, I REALIZE
NOW THAT IT IS TOO LATE, THAT
WE MIGHT HAVE WON THE BIG
PRIZE IF WE HAD WORKED A LIT
TLE HARDER."
This is a contest in which votes, and

Augustans Should Know the Heat Wave
is Brokeiy, Thai is , Ifs 5 Degrees
Cooler Today Than Yesterday
An Inexperienced visitor would think
you weer crazy If, standing on Broad
street today, you told hint that the heat
wave had broken. Nevertheless It hHS.
Today at I o’clock the temperature was
96 iis opposed to yesterday's 101 at the
same hour.
Now that it Is over, romp irltlvely
speaking, o he Is almost sorry that it did
not get lust a little bit. hotter, Just to
td'eak the record.
Yesterday's maximum temperature of
103.8, which Is reporte.d as 104, broke the
record for tile month of June, and In
deed was Hie highest temperature re
corded on the thermometer since 1888,
hut It did not exceed all hitherto known
temperatures.
The maximum of 104 has been record
ed on six other occasions. Namely, July
22 and August 2, 1878;
July 12, 1879;
July 17 and 18, 1887, and
July 8, 1888.
The temperature of 104 has.never been
exceeded, however, so that we have the
satisfaction of having seen It Just as
hoi as It ever was even though we can’t
go them one better.
Of course It Ik welt known that tho top
of the postoffice building, where the
official records are taken, Is like a snow
