KING AGAIN ON THRONE:
UP GOES THE FLFECY
Nearly One Hundreds Points
6ained.

Americus cotton men reioiced yes
terday in the substantial rally in
prices following the recent break in
the market. The fireworks started
with the publication of the govern
ment report on Monday, and the air
ships still sailed yesterday towards
the former high water mark During
the two days the gain was more than
eighty points, or nearly one cent per
pound The substantial gain quickly
restored values in the Americus mar
ket and the finer grades yesterday
brought ii 1-8 to IA IA cents. The
soaring of prices was especially graft
flying to the element here who play
the futures game" and from whose
clouded faces even the circus could
not drive the deepening gloom Bat
the game went their way yesterday
and Fluctuations on the avenue were
numerous and sincere. January con-
tracts closed at 1853, a gain of nearly
sixty points on Tuesday alone. This
recent break in the market will be the
final one, thinks local talent, and rec
ord prices this week and next are
counted upon.

NO TIDINGS OF SLAYER
FOUND BY OFFICERS
Reward is Offered for
Murderer.

Despite dilligent effort to that end
no tidings have come to the sheriffs
office or police department that would
throw light upon the most atrocious
murder committed here Monday
morning, the killing of Mr. f. w. Dur
ham at the plant of the Virginia Caro-
lima Chemical Co., where he had been
employed as night watchman
The Times-Recorder told yesterday
of the discovery of the mutilated body
OF the unfortunate young man, beside
which lay the bloody axe welded by
the inhuman brute who thus killed
him for a few dollars.
careful survey of the surround
ings was made, but if there is any
clue the officers are holding it.
AS stated yesterday, the company
employing Mr.. Durham has offered a
reward of 800 for the apprehension
of the assassin, and Gov. Brown may
be asked to supplement this amount
for the state. Americus has never
known a more cold-blooded crime,
and no effort will be spared to run
down and capture the assassin.
The remains of Mr.. Durham, accom-
panied by his stricken wife and little
babe, were taken yesterday to Dawson
for interment.

.RYLANDER GAR MADE A
RECORD RUN TO FINISH
Perfect Score to Atlanta
Was Made.

A telegram last night from Walter
Rylander, the Americus contestant in
the south Georgia endurance run to
Atlanta, announced his arrival there
at 1890 o'clock, noon, without acct
dent or delay, thus making perfect
score for himself and his "E, NJ. F."
car. The starting time from Macon
yesterday morning was not given, but
is supposed here to have been not
earlier than s o'clock-possibly $50
in which event he would have covered
the 116 miles of dirt road in exactly
four hours-a speed of % miles an
hour. The road from Macon to At
lanta is fine one, and this speed
could easily have been made. Messrs
Walter Brown, Sion Hawkins and Dick
Brinson are in the Rylander car
Nothing was told in the brief disDatcb
OF the trip up, or the probable stand
ing of the thirty cars in the endurance
race. Three Of the thirty cars are
ing cars are from Dothan, Ala; Daw
son, Cuthbert, Cordele, Edison, VAL
dosta, Americus, Forsyth, Sylvester.
Leesburg, Blakely, Sasser and GrlffiL.
All cars started with a score ofone
thousand, with sealed hoods, sealed
radiators, and sealed gasoline and oil
tanks. Penalties were imposed as fol-
lows; For each minute of delay N
reaching Barnesville or the speedway
club house, one point would be deduct
ed. Broken seals on hoods will cost
fifty points, broken seals on radiators
twenty points, broken seals on gaso-
line tanks twenty points and broken
seals ON oil tanks twenty points. All
broken seals were to be replaced at
Barnesville and if again broken sec
ond penalty will be imposed

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 9.-Atlanta is this

thrilling great crowds at the speed
way a few miles from town. 1t cost
100000 to build the big race track,
but it was done and those who ought

than the one constructed at Indian

many visitors, while the hotels, board

Savannah, Ga, Nov. 9-Figures just
gathered from fourteen states show
an unprecedented movement through
out the South and West for improved
highways, Contracts proposed or al
ready entered on, call for the expendi-
ture of between $25,o00,000 and $780,
100000. But for the intense prejudice
against automobiles it is estimated
fully $60,00o.000 would now be avail
able for better roads. In Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina, Geor-
gia, Florida, Alabama, Louisiana and
Oklahoma state convicts are being
largely used
In parts of Missouri the money
from saloon licenses is appropriated
for the purpose. In Kentucky the
county courts set apart certain sum
to be matched with equal amounts by
citizens. In Alabama the new roads
are paid for, half by the county and
half BY the community.

Millions for Good Roads.

In some parishes in Louisiana the
police jury fees pay for new roads
There is a notable lack of county en-
gineers and much incompetent super
vision in all parts of the South. But,
in the aggregate, tremendous
amount of work is being done. Grades
have been reduced, roads have been
clayed, iron or steel bridges have re-
placed wooden ones, and sewer drain
age has been installed in the low plac-
es. In Kentucky $4,000 year In
each county is being raised by tax
alton for gradual improvement. The
owners of timber and mineral lands
are joining in putting good roads
through the hill regions Drought In
parts of Texas, three crop failures in
succession in districts in Missouri and
the boll-weevil in Mississippi have
delayed bond issues or other provis-
ions.
The latest years figures for actual
expenditures in the South for i'm
proved roads are as follows: Alabama,
1857 900; Arkansas, 81 400 900; Flor
ida, $57S.000; Georgia. $2,100,O0O;
Louisiana, $952,O0O; Missouri, $S73,-

ginia, $6S8,OO0; West Virginia, $685.
