TRADE IS GOING TO
Be BRISK IN FALL
a Brighter Era For Americas Is
Dawning Now.
BRIGHTENs IN MANY RESPECTS,
Already Cotton Is Pouring Into Mar
ket and Many Thousands of Dollars
Circulating Merchants are Antici-
pating an Excellent Trade.

If there is anything in ''the signs of
the times" Americas is about to enter
upon an era of prosperity such as she
has not known IN years. Nor is it
fairy vision, to be quickly dispelled,
for this belief is backed by conditions
that give every assurance of an early
realization.
Business will be better than for a
long time. 1t is better now by far
than at this date year ago.
But the dawn is just breaking, and
the sunlight of prosperity will soon
beam respondent for all. Americus is
on the mp grade, and there is an i'm
petus with it that cannot be retarded,
Confidence is restored, people are
here with money to invest in real es-
tate and various lines of business,
Empty stores are finding occupants,
homes are in greater demand than at
any time since the boom days of 1890,
and feeling of confidence prevails
generally.
Americas merchants feel it, and are
preparing for a great fall trade.
Not in years have they bought such
large stocks, and not in years has the
prospect for selling goods been so
bright. Already great stocks of fall
goods are icing received.
Crops have been better in years
past, but our farmers have no cause to
complain when their condition is con-
trasted with that of others. The cot
ton crop will be an average one, and
the price paid for it will more than
make up the deficiency. The farmers
are all right.
And this wealth produced by them
is already being poured into market
and exchanged for dollars.
Never at this season has such an
amount of cotton been marketed thus
early. Already Americas has received
near 200 new bales and will receive
as many more next week. The ware
houses yesterday, like the stores,
were scenes of push and business.
Since Sept. 1st last year, Americas
has received up to date So, 900 bales of
cotton This is the amount handled
by local buyers, and does not include
receipts at the compress.
Not less than $4,000 bales will be our
receipts during the season,
Building to the amount of TWO hun
dred thousand dollars is the city's re-
cent record, and includes those now
in process of erection. And there will
will be more of this. New money will
seek investment here and factories
will be built in the waste places.
Americas has weathered bravely the
storm of adversely, and the fact that
she is the best little city in Georgia is
thus demonstrated. Now watch her
grow as never before.

LETTERS IS CHEAPER.
Reduction Is Made In the Price Of
Envelopes,

The price of stamped envelopes is
cheaper now, though of course the
late prohibition election had nothing
to do with this decline in values. 1t is
now possible to buy 1000 envelopes,
stamped, and with the name and ad-
dress of the buyer printed on them, all
for $91 20. Aud further, if any of the
envelopes should be spoiled in address"
sing them they can be redeemed at the
value of the stamp Again a package
of twenty-five envelopes are sold for
So cents, but no printing is done on them
where the quantity of envelopes pur-
chased is less than 1000. The quail
ty of the envelopes is first class.

OWES HIM NOTHING.
Sir Thomas Upton Asks That Barrie's
Suit Be Dismissed.

New York, July 24.-Through his at
torneys, Sir Thomas Upton, Wednes-
day, filed his answer to the claim OF
David Barrie, against him. In effect the
answer says that whatever services
have been rendered to Sir Thomas by
Barrie, have been paid for.
The answer relates the engagement
of Barrie to sell the tea of the Upton
Co in October, 1897, at a salary of $12o
per month and 20 per cent. commission.
but the salary to be deducted from the
commission. In 1899, when Barrie was
getting $125 per month, Sir Thomas
Upton was engaged in an effort to lift
the Americas cup. Barrie attended to
many of the details without promise
Of compensation, it is claimed. At the
close of the contests Sir Thomas then
allowed Barrie the same amount OF
commission as he had earned III 1898.
In 1900 Sir Thomas was again en-
gagged in a cup contest and again Bar
RE attended to certain details. for
which, Sir Thomas says in his answer.
he paid Barrie G10O in English money.
The answer asks that the suit be dis
missed.

JURY HAS CASE.
CONTINUED from page ID

significant is that Treworgy himself
admitted that he believed Fogg helped
move the body but denied that fogg
helped him move it.
The noon recess was taken at TINS
point and at the afternoon session the
attorney general concluded his argu-
ment. He said that he believed Select
man Hall had used threats and argu-
rnents to induce Fogg to change his
first story about Treworgy, but when
arrested for perjury Fogg persisted
that his first story was true.
How did the money come in Sarah
Wares trunk? Experienced detectives
had searched it after the body was dis
covered and no money was found in
the trunk or about the room, and yet
when some weeks later it was searched
a roll of money was found there. Ire
worgy had been at the house up to the
middle of October and had access to
this room every day, and the attorney
general argued that TrewOrgy had put
the money there. Then when Mrs.
Ware was at Buldoc's house she did
not have a waterproof nor did she have
it when she left her home, and yet this
waterproof was found by the side OF
the body.
Where Treworgy was the night OF
the murder he has been unable to ex-
plain. He told Corners to ask his fam
iIy where he was and yet none of his
family testified at this trial as to his
whereabouts. He knew the day the
body was found he was suspected or
the murder, and still he did not tell
anyone where he was the night OF the
murder, as he easily might have done.
| Treworgy said that on the Thursday
night Fogg says he helped him move
the body he was at a class meeting,
but no members of that class have tes-
tilted here that Treworgy was there
that night. The defence has erected a
straw man with whom to charge with
| the murder, but that man has proved
an alibi. Treworgy's actions showed
that he was guilty, as did his manner
| in court.
The attorney general closed very elo-
| quently.
