NEW ORLEANS COTTON
New Orleans.—Cotton futures openefl
steady at a decline of 5 to 12 points on
poor cables. The weather map about
balanced itself, rains in the west offset
ting rains in the east. Trading was
chiefly of a scalping nature in the early
se??i n n. although some little liquidation
came from both sides. Crop reports
from the eastern belt were still unfav
orable and checked short selling. At th<e
end of the first half hour of business
prices were 7 to 8 points under yester
day’s clOvSe.
Toward the middle of the morning the
market strengthened on complaints of
grassy crops in many parts of the east
ern belt and reports of worms in im
portant sections of Arkansas. The fore
cast predicted more showers for the east
ern belt but promised fair weather for
Oklahoma and West Texas, all of which
was unfavorable and increased buying
orders. Late in the morning the new
cijbng? were five to six points over yes
tejday’s close July at the highest was
still two points under that level. At
ndqn price.? were two points down to
tHree up compared with the last quota
tion:* of yesterday.
Early in the afternoon the market dis
played some little strength and went 7
to- 8 point? over yesterday’s close. Longs
took ’ profits and at 2 o’clocks the trading
months were 1 to 2 points under yes
terday’s closd.
Cotton futres closed steady at a net
deeiipp of from 1 to 5 points.
The market was less active during 'the
afternoon but ruled generally steady to
firm and about three to five points net
higher or within two or three points of
the best.

SAY PROHIBITION FIGHT
INJURIOUS TO BUSINESS
Atlanta.—That the constant agita
agitatlon of the prohibition question Is
more injurious to business interests
and general prosperity than any other
phase of the liquor question, was one
of the unique and striking arguments
brought against the Tippjns bill befbre
the senate committee yesterday. It
was voiced by Forrest Adair, Reuben
R Arnold, Captain English, Dr. Geo.
Brown and other prominent Atlan
tians. ,
Mr. Adair said he had information
from one of the largest whiskey dealers
of Louisville that the sale of beer in
Atlanta bad resulted in a great reduc
tion In his business here.
The Atlantians wore unanimous in
believing that a more stringent law
than the present one would revive all
the old agitation in bring more harm
than good even from a strictly prohi
bition standpoint.

GRAIN MARKET
Chicago, Ills. —Huge quantities of
wheat changed hands today on an excited
market due to the closing of the Rar
danelles and the consequent blockade of
grain exports from Southern Russian and
other imortant roduclng districts.
All other influences wer© disregarded.
Seculators who were short, almost fought
each o*her in efforts to buy wheat be
fore rices were out of reach.' Th© mar
ket oened all the way from 34 to ? 3-8
higher than last night and for a short
'time held to the to level reached. When
the urchases necessary to even up pre
vious sales had been made the buying
flurry lessened materially and a com
parative i u n ensued. September wheat
opened at 95 to 3-4, a rise of 1 5-8 to 2
3-8 but afterward receded to 93 7-8.
Corn showed disturbance nearly equal
to that in wheat. Reasons were iden
tical. September started 1 to 2 cents
a bushel higher at 65 1-2 to 66 1-2 and
later fell back to 64 7-8.
The large crop of oats now being har
vested was too immedite an immediate
influence to be overlooked. September
opened 5-8 to 3-4 up at 33 5-8 to 33
3-4 touched 33 7-Ba3-4 an% then reacted
to 83 1-4
Strength of cereals and the upward
tendency of hogs firmed pr-tvisic?is. Ini
tial sale? ranged from last night’s level
to 15 cents higher with Seplember de
livery 17.65 to 67 1-2 for por’j. 10.55 to
69 for lard and 10.47 \-i for ribs.
Large export wheat sales brought
ahout a subsequent. Closed nervour,
with September 13-8 cents net higher at.
94 3-4.
Corn afterward broke sharply on free
bear selling but recovered with wheat.
Closed unsettled at 65 1-2 for September,
a net advance of a cent.

ASKS FOR ANOTHER
SENATORIAL VOTE
Roosevelt Supporter Writes
Chairman NebrasHa Republi
can State Committee for New
Election.
Washington. —Representative Nor
ris, of Nebraska, a Roosevelt sup
porter, in a letter sent Thursday to
the chairman of the Nebraska repub
lican state committee, asks for an
other senatorial primary in which his
republicanism is to be tried and a
new set of candidates for Roosevelt
and Taft electors. He proposes that
electors for both sides stand by the
result.
Mr. Norris made the proposal in
reply to criticism in his state and
published demands that he support
President Taft or get off the repub
lican ticket.
“I am a believer in the recall," said
Mr. Norris in his letter. “I am will
ing that It. should be applied to me
and, if, since my nomination, my
course tn refusing to recognize Mr.
Taft as the republican nominee is
unsatisfactory to the republicans who
nominated me, I am not only willing
but. I believe it is my duty to with
draw. Under no circumstances can
I be induced to support a man for of
fice whose nomination I conscienti
ously believe to have been obtained
by the corrupt and unlawful methods
which I believe were perpetrated in
the so-called renomination of Presi
; dent Taft and if my nomination, or
even my election, must depend upon
such support, then I much prefer to
remain in private life.”

New York.—When the arbitration
commission now seeking to reconcile
differences between 5" eastern rail
railroads and their engineers over
wage demands resumed its work to
da>. il appeared that (ho question
which has split the roads and their
employes wider than any other issue,
