City Council Has Refused Hospital
Help.
While the proposition to establish a
free hospital in Amerlcus meets the
approval of citizens generally, many of
whom are making personal contribu-
tions to the fund, the city council has
declined the financial assistance asked
and will not make the small appropria-
ton expected. At the meeting a week
ago the proposition that the couxcil
make such contribution was referred to
the finance committee, which has since
made an adverse report to that end.
However, the enterprise will be pushed
forward and all efforts made to insure
success despite this action of the
council. The ladies are working en-
thusias tically, and their efforts will
yet result successfully.

RECORD IS MADE IN
RECEIPT OF BALES.
Americas Beat All Previous
Days.
1868 BALES CAME YESTERDAY
Best Day the City Has Ever Known
From the Standpoint of Wagon Re-
s-Warehousemen Rejoice at
the New Record Made.

Thirteen hundred and sixty eight
bales wagon cotton were hauled to
Americus yesterday from Sumter and
neighboring counties, thus breaking
all previous records established from
the standpoint of receipts,
1t was a glorious day in cotton cir
cles, and one of rejoicing.
Men long in the cotton trade here,
veterans of forty seasons, looked at the
figures last night and declared the re-
suit unequalled.
Americus has several times received
more than a thousand bales by wagon
in single day, having received 1000
only few days since, but 1858 bales
went over the record by several hun
dred bales.
Mr.. U. B. Harold, the Messrs.
Council and others identified with the
cotton trade for many years declared
yesterdays business the best in their
knowledge, and gratifying withal.
1t stamps Americas more than ever
the leading interior market in the state
of Georgia.
For none other town received any
thing like l 1868 bales yesterday.
Nor was there a rush of cotton here
on this day, as on the two days previ-
Gus receipts by wagon aggregated 1000
bales, even, thus making the total
receipts for the three days, Thursday,
Friday and Saturday, 2,968 bales.
Very nearly 5000 bales in three days.
Pretty good IN itself.
Americus' daily receipts will run
from 500 to 900 bales now, with 1000
for busy Saturday. And yesterday
was the busiest Saturday ever, with a
new record of /, 368 wagon bales.
Prices yesterday held up well above
10 cents, and it can safely be said that
the bulk of yesterdays receipts were
sold at 1OB cents. This means that
800, 900 was put iu circulation by the
sale of this cotton.
And to say that merchants appreci-
ated such disbursement expresses it
very mildly.
A prominent warehouseman, discuss
ing the receipts, said that Americus was
rapidly extending her territory and
drawing cotton this season from sec
tons that heretofore have hauled IT to
other markets
But satisfactory prices, full weights
and excellent banking facilities has
turned the tide this way
While Amerlcus has three banks,
with large capital, the great bulk of
the cotton business here this season is
being done through one bank alone,
and with such excellent business man
agement that money has been ample.
Up to last night Americus' total re-
ceipts of wagon was 13, SIS bales, every
bale of which is sold here, and the
money spent here.
