IRON TRADE SHOWS
SIGNS OF ACTIVITY

NEW YORK. Aug. 2S.-A revival of
old inquiries for pigiron in the west
and few more inquiries for steel bars
in the east last week were accepted by
some OF the furnaces and steel mills
as harbingers of returning activity in
the iron trade.
Otherwise there were no new devel-
opments to indicate a turn in the tide
of business.
The wire trade continued most active.

ROAD TO JAX TO BE
POSTED FOR THE
AUTO RUN
LOCAL PARTY LEAVES THIS
ALL CROSSINGS BETWEEN
BRUNSWICK AND DuACKSONVJLLE

For the purpose of posting the au-
tomobile road between Brunswick and
Jacksonville, Barlow" Anderson and
Hugh Flanders leave in a car this
morning, the expense of the trip to be
borne by the Retail Merchants and
Business Mems association, which Or
ganizatfcn is manifesting great inter-
est in the proposed endurance run and
which is working in every way possi-
BILE to have the route via Brunswick
adopted.
In the past automobile parties have
experienced considerable difficulty be-
tween this city and Jacksonville, ow-
ing to the fact that there were no
signs Often at cross roads it has
been necessary for various parties to
go miles out of their way in order to
ascertain which road to take.
The two gentlemen above named
will leave this morning, however, with
a number of signs and one will be
posted at every cross road. This work
of course, will be completed before
the preliminary run of a number of
Savannah autoiSts on next Tuesday,
when a trip will be made from Savan
nah to Jacksonville for the specific
purpose of ascertaining which of the
two roads should be used in the big
endurance run in March

HEAR CASE TODAY
ST. SIMON WHARF CASE TO BE
ARGUED BEFORE THE SU-
PREME COURT.

Judge A. ID. Gale and Judge Boiling
Whitfield, representing Mrs. Wallace
owner of the new wharf at ST. Simon
and Judge D. W. Krauss and Col. II
+. Dunwody, representing the st. 81
mon Transit company, left last night
for Atlanta, where they go to appear
before the Georgia supreme court to-
day to argue the row famous case in
which the st. Simon Transit company
is endeavoring to prevent the con-
struction Of the wharf on the island.
This case has been in the courts
for several months. An application
for temporary inTlnction was first
granted, which prevented the work
starting. When the petition was
heard by Judge Parker Ae decided in
favor of Mrs. Wallace and, while the
case was carried to the higher court
by the attorneys representing the ST.
Simon Transit company, the new

WALL STREET IS
MUCH EXCITED BY
COTTON MARKET
DECENTRALIZATION WAS NOTICE.
ABLE IN COTTON MARKET
YESTERDAY.
Stocks Which Figured in Tuesdays
Dealings Were Sold Again, But
Their Effect Was Not Important and
the List Rallie~-Souther Advices.

New York, Jan 12.-There was
renewal of the bull panic in the cot
pcn market today, accompanied by
even a greater decentralization than
that noted on the previous break.
The liquidation began in Liverpool
and was continued on a tremendous
scale in the local market, with Ala4IA
cotton selling down to 14.S7c, May to
lo.04c, July to l5.05c, or 43 to 46 points
under the closing prices last night,
and from Sc to 81 per bale below the
recent high record.
it is beneved the recent sensational
fluctuations have unsettled the hold
ers on very large lines of contracts,
and one big southern operator was
credited with having liquidated fully
100000 bales during the first hours
of trading.
1t is rumored in local circles that
the western bull clique liquidated it's
holdings last week, causing break
OF about 1c a pound, but that the
holdings of one of the southern bull
cllques came on the market following
the publication of the census report
on Monday, and that liquidation of
this morning represented the entire
holdings of another of the large bull
interests.
Southern advices are almost unani-
nous in claiming that interior nold-
lngS of cotton are not following the
decline, but 1t is believed that spinners
have been frightened out of the mar
ket by recent speculative develop
ments, and today there was practically
no support until the price broke
through 15c for March, when one of
the big New Orleans traders entered
the ring with bid for 10000 bales OF
nat delivery. There was only a slight
rally, however and the market show
Cd little Improvement
Wall Street Operations
Stocks in Wall street which figured
prominently In yesterdays liquidation.
were sold again today, but their ef-
feet on the general market was not
important and the list rallied.
The first prices of stocks today
showed no change of significance,
small gains and losses being mingled
in equal proportions. Dealings also
were light.
Indifference of the general list to
weakness in individual stocks prompt
ed some buying, including a demand
from uncovered shorts Bonds were
steady.

ENTIRE DAY DEVOTED TO
A NEGRO ALlMONY CASE
Then jury Got Tied Up and Spent the
Night Wrangling.

In the Giynn superior court yester-
day a negro alimony case. that of AL
dora Floyd VS.. Thomas Floyd, occupied
almost the entire day. IN fact il was
the only case heard during the day In
the case OF Annie James VS.. r. w.
burden and A. M Ross, equity, which
was commenced Tuesday afternoon, a
verdict was returned in favor of the
defendant.
AS soon as this case was completed
the negro alimony case was taken up
and until late in tA&s afternoon wit
nesses were being examined. The case
was finally given TO the jury before
the supper hopr, but from all indica-
tions they are hopelessly split as to
an agreement, as the twelve men were
still out at late hour last night with
no prospect of agreeing.
Judge Conyers will convene the
court at the usual aonr this morning
for the purpose of either receiving a
verdict in the above case or declaring
a mistrial, and he will then recess un-
til tomorrow morning, therefore the
Jurors and others not interested IN the
above case will not be required to
report this morning.

HARTMAN LINE
MAKE INQUIRIES
ABOUT THIS PORT
MAY BE THAT, THE BIG SYSTEM
HAS AN EYE ON
BRUNSWICK
Report Has 1t That, by Acquiring the
Georgia Coast and PIEDMONT and Ex-
lending, the Big System Could Eas-
lily Reach the Pert.

1t is rumored as coming from a
to credence that the Hartman inter
ests now controlling the Central cf
Georgia, approximately $500 miles
long, and the Illinois Central rail-
road, approximately $500 miles in
length, as well as numerous other
railroad properties, are considering
Brunswick as a terminal point and
have been making inquiries or rather
considering the adyisability of pur-
chasing the Georgia Coast & Pied
mont and extending it into Bruins
wick.
1t is a fact that the Central of
Georgia and Illinois Central have
been working closely together and
that great deal of business con-
trolled by these properties for eX-
port and coastwise movement has
been moved through Savannah the
south Atlantic terminus of the Cen
tral Of Georgia. 1t is considered that
the space for ship ing al Savannah
tA'ehb CeAAA DC Pit III oudDC lOl w lCtl ldES
purposes at any reasonable cost is
about exhausted, and should the Har-
riman interests decide to swing and
divert its immense business to be
moved coastwise through Savannah it
would probably congest their facili-
ties at that port. Even though this
may not be the case at present, with
the wonderful growth of its business
at that port it will be the case not
many years hence.
1t is thought that it would be a
good idea to seek Brunswick as an
additional port One dollar spent on
deep water at Brunswick secures
about the same result as $40 spent
at Savannah on account of the immeas-
llrably better harb0r at Brunswick.
The Georgia Coast & Piedmont con-
meets with the Wadley Southern at
Collins and the Wadley Southern is a
subsidiary property of the Central of
Georgia, about ffty-fve miles long,
connecting with the Georgia Coast G
Piedmont at Collins at one end and
with the Central of Georgia at Wad-
ley on the other. A glance at the
map shows that from Wadley to
Brunswick by way of the Southern
and Georgia Coast & Piedmont makes
almost a straight shoot of only about
$50 miles, including extension into
Brunswick.
Should matters develop as above in
sdicated Brunswick would be in luck,
indeed. 1t would mean immense ter
minals here, it would mean a new
steamer line, both passenger and
freight and employment for a great
number of people.
With its ample deep water frontage
yet unoccupied traffic could be ac-
commodated in volume which could
not be matched by any other port on
the south Atlantic coast.

LOCAL PARTY MADE AUTO
TRIP TO BROWNSVILLE

J. H. Hopkins, F. II. Mallard and
Thomas Hopkins returned yesterday
from Thomasville, they having made
the trip to that city and return in
Mr.. Hopkins Buick machine.
The party left Brunswick Sunday
morning and made good time to
Thomasville. They report that the
e.oads, for the most part, are in an
excellent condition, and state that
with a little work by one or two OF
the counties between the two cities
the road could easily be made one OF
the best in the state.

A TALK TO POLICE
LOCAL OFFICERS GIVEN A TALK
YESTERDAY AFTERNOON BE-
HIND CLOSED DOORS.

The city council chairman of the
police committee, the chief of police,
assistant chief and the members of
the force were closeted in the office
of the chief for an hour yesterday aft
ernoon 1t is understood that the "star
chamber session" was held for the
purpose of instructing and disciplin-
ing the men, but this is not known
for certain, as the rather unusual &C
tion of excluding representatives of
the press from the meeting was one
of the remarkable features of it. In
annual meetings, when instructions TO
the finest" are given each year, are
open affairs, to which press represen-
tatives are hidden and cordially in
vited, rather than being refused ad-
mittance, as was the case with the
Brunswick session yesterday
However, it is pretty well understood
that the force needs some "disciplin-
ing" and if all reports are true, a
private hearing, even if held at the
4-Mile Crossing, will not serve to bet
ter the record of the department made
during the last year. Just what was
done at the session, because of the
facts stated above, is not known, but
the public will indulge the hope that
a set of rules and regulations look
ing to the general betterment of the
conduct of the department was one of
the Incidents of the private session
and that the force will be made to
observe such regulations is another
consummatiOn devoutly to be desired
In the meantime the public, like The
News, will perhaps wonder why it was
necessary to seek the seclusion Of a
caucus, to give instructions to po-
lice department, in which the entire
people are interested and to whose
care the property and the lives of
the people are committed.

GOOD INCREASE
IN STAMP SALE
DURING THE YEAR
REPORT PREPARED BY PoSTMAS-
TER SMITH SHOWS INCREASE
FOR THIS CITY.
The Increase Has Been Steady "a
the Postmaster is Well satish id
With It-over $4,000 a Month Spent
for Stamps. TY

Postmaster Smith has completed his
annual statement for stamp sales at
the local postoffice, and it shows
quite healthy increase in this de
partment for the year ending Decem-
Der 81.
The net gain for the year over the
previous one was $4S5.70, and as 1907
was an unusually good year the re-
port shows up great deal better than
the figures seem to Indicate
Few people in Brunswick could,
without making an investigation, guess
within many hundred dollars of the
amount Of money spent in Brunswick
annually for postage stamps alone. In
fact a person not familiar with the
business of Uncle Sam would hardly
known exactly hcw to estimate the
amount of business. 1t is not the
crowds that you see buying one or
two stamps daily that runs the amount
up, but the large business houses
which purchase them by the hundreds
which really counts in dollars and
cents.
For the year 1909 the exact re-
ceipts for sale of stamps exclusively
in the local pcstof1ce was $24,9S4.07,
against $24,4 for 1898, showing
a net increase in the stamp business
for the past year of $4S5.70.
While there has been correspond
ing increase in the other departments
Of the postoffice. the sale of stamps
is always used by the postofice de-
partment as an indication of lt3e
amount cf business handled at the
various postoffices
