New YORK, Aug. 14.-At the stock ex-
change the market opened H@4c higher
for some properties and 16@l4c lower for
others. With the exception of stray up
ward movement in Louisville d Nash
vile the general list was dull and tame.
and but for that one single boom the whole
market would undoubtedly have declined.
as strong selling movement set in at the
start, but was Immediately checked. As il
was Northwestern sold down to 1917. but
rallied to l02. st. Paul was lifeless around
20 and Lackawanna was the same
around 90. The Pacifics moved up
about p a point and stopped. Jer-
sey Central was quiet at 501l, and Western
Union was kept between 6S and -. The
SIMPLE fact is, the market now requires TO
be supported by main strength, as there is
no short interest out TO speak of and every
body is loaded up TO the gunwaleS with long
stuff, which they are anxious to sell at
profit, but are unable to do so without de-
pressing prices, and so each day a feeble
bull movement is manufactured by ''wash
sales or otherwise, and Oh the rise as much
long stock is sold as the market will take
without disaster to the general interest. In
siders to New York Central, Northwestern
and st. Paul were quietly unloading yester-
day. The squirt in Wabashes continued to-
day, the common stock opening point and
half and the preferred ! point higher.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-THE trade move

reluctance on the part of buyers to get in
very heavily until more certain indications
of revival i'm business are apparent. At
present all business men can be called ''pris-
oners of hope" rather than actual partici-
pants in a boom. The good time COM
ing" is ardently wished for, but its dawning
is slow and more or less streaked with low
hanging clouds. The present depression in
wheat and provisions is exerting an I'M
healthy influence on general trade, eSpec-
tally country trade. We are not ont of the
woods. but are making some progress thith-
erward. The money market is quiet and
rates are steady and a little firmer. New

THE NEW SOUTHERN ISSUE.

Prohibition in the South seems to
prohibit more than it does in the North.
In Georgia for instance, It prevails in
two-thirds of the counties. Those
counties in which 1t does not exist are
known as the black counties" and
the advocates of prohibition have maps
of the State in which these counties are
so printed The black color makes
but small showing beside the rest of
the map, but copies of the chart are
used very extensively and effectively
by the prohibitionists. They are in
fact object lessons in temperance
The law, too, is strictly enforced
where 1t has been voted into existence
a man cannot, rs in Maine, give the
grand sign of distress and receive
his reiuvenator; nor can he manipulate
n gas-fiXture, as in Iowa, and fgura-
lively smite the rock from which flows
the beverage which he desires.
1t is not only in Georgia that prohi.
bition has taken a strong footing. In
South Carolina, Virginia, and notably
Alabama, there is strong feeling in
favor Of that method of dealing with
the liquor question. The work of the
prohibitionists in the South is more
earnest and more effective than in any
other section of the country.
AS is invariably the case where TEN.
perance is agitated, the ladies take the
lead; but there is this difference: they
have in the South much larger fol.
lowing of men than the ladies of the
North or West have Women have
more influence over men in the South.
cn States than any of their sisters else
where. To their influence is due the
great bulk of the work that has brought
about the results attained.
The prohibition crusade is just now
at its height in Atlanta. Fulton County,
in which that city is situated is pro.
hibitory outside of the city limits, and
vote will be taken on the 25th instant

have n prohibitory liquor law The

enthusiasm to the square inch can be
worked up in Atlanta in a week than
can be produced in a month in any
