SUPERINTENDENT OF
 TRAFFIC ABANDONED

Atlanta, March 29.-Announcement was
 made today that the office of division traffic superintendent of the Western lanta. will be discontinued, with the res- ignation of D. M. Therrell. It is stated that MT. Therrell probably will return to the Southern Bell Telephone company. B. P. Hancock of Jacksonville will come to Atlanta as the specialist on traffic
 matters, but his title has not been de- cided on.
 General Superintendent H. C. Worthen today gave out a statement denying that the Western Union had decided to drop it's new plan of administration. He said. Experience has shown that by discon- tinuing the position of division traffic superintendent and combining it's func- tions with those of the division commer- cial department in the general superin- tendents office, we bring about a
 more direct method of handling traffic.
 As we are working to the end of an in- stantaneous service, we discontinued the division traffic superintendent's position
 and have traffic specialist in the di- vision commercial superintendent's of fee This will be E. P. Hancock J. P. Edwards is attached to the general su- perintendent's office as specialist on equipment and J. F. Scofield Is attached to the division commercial superintend- ents office as a specialist on commer- cial matters. Otherwise the organization stands as it was
 The successor to MT. Hancock, who has been district superintendent at Jackson vile, probably will be decided on at a meeting of the division officials here to- morrow.

COTTON NERVOUS
 AND IRREGULAR Wall Street and Other Oper- ators Are Aggressive
 July Sellers

New York March 29.--The cotton market was nervous and irregular to- day with Wall street and other opera tors, including one of the leading bull brokers, aggressive sellers of July on advances, while May shorts appeared to be uneasy and bid that position up to a premium of 26 points over the &C., tive summer delivery. The close was steady, net points lower to 9 points higher; spring and new crop deliveries being relatively firm.
 The opening was steady at an ad vance of COS points in response to bet ter cables than expected and a renewal of yesterdays late covering movement. Wall street houses were sellers on the initial advance. however, and the mar lSet also looked as if some of the lead ing buyers of yesterday were liquidat- ing. At any rate, prices soon eased off with old crop positions reacting to about the closing figures of lastj night. Liverpool houses were good buyers on this setback, helping to steady the market and toward midday prices work ed up on covering of shorts.
 There seemed to be very little May for sale when the rally began and these was quite a furry among May shorts during the noon hour, that po- sition selling up to If 40c or 12 points above the closing figures of yesterday and 20 points above yesterdays low level. Later months worked up to a net gain of 6@9 points in sympathy, of ferings of July became heavy on the ad- vance and fluctuations in the later trad ing were very nervous and irregular. Just before the close July broke to 14.04c or points net lower but closed at 14.10c, net advance of 1 point. May closed at 14.34c or points net higher and last prizes on the new crop were about points below the closing figures of yesterday. Private cables from Liverpool attributed the advance there to improved trade in Manchester, and a more actove demand from the continent, but domestic trade accounts showed no improvement and rumors of a better demand from China for cotton goods from southern mills lacked con- firmation.
 Receipts at the ports today, 7333 bales, against S553 last week and IT, 048 last year.
 Today's receipts at New Orleans. 3407 bales, against 9203 last year. and >at Houston, 2655 bales, against 1779 last year.

RAINS BREAK THE PRICE OF WHEAT Makes New Low Record for SeasOn-Third Drop
 This Week

Chicago, March 29.-Snow or rain, as if the price of wheat today to a new low record for the season-the third smash of the kind this week. The close was within 1ac of the bottom figures reached, and at net loss of R4ssc to 11ac. In sharp contrast barley, which has been a scarce article of late, went to a new high level here, S1.14 a bushel. Final sales left to Ac, and provisions with 15a471sc de- cline.
 Liauidating sales for the May option took the lions share of attention in wheat Many of the discouraged longs transferred their interests to the Sep tember delivery and thus caused the new crop months to show less depression than May. Profit-taking by shorts and just a sprinkle of new investment led to a feeble recovery at the windup. Foreign weakness had sonciderable effect here.
 French markets were demoralzed and cargoes afIoat were being pressed for resale Of the immediate importance, however, was the fact that cash business locally was tri1ing, even at the big de- cline. Power of absorption all but van ished too, in the near futures, so that shorts who collected dues found them selves unable as rule to get into the market again to advantage on the bear side High and low limits for May proved to be S73sc and s71sc, with the close weak at s6s@86Ac, drop of 11sc compared with last night.
 During most of the day corn held steady despite wheat weakness, but finally went on the downward track. Wet weather furnished the early strength. Loss of nerve on the part of those who had bought led to the subsequent change. May varied from 4714c to 4S1s@ 4SAc, closing easy, 3sc net lower at 471sc. Cash grades were weak. No. yellow fin- ished at 46s4@471ac.
 Oats followed corn rather closely. De- mand was only scattering. May ranged between 301sc and 3O1ac, with the close 1s014c off at 3014c. Extreme anxiety was displayed by holders to get rid of pro- visions. An unusually free supply of hogs gave the incentive. After the pit was cleared pork had shrunk in value 321sqS5c to 471sc; lard 171a@20c, and ribs, 15c to 20d221sc.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York March 29.-(Special)-On the better foreign markets the buyers of yes- terday afternoon became sellers, but there was a continued demand for May under the impression that the arbitrage interest in that position were disposed to buy freely, because of the decrease in our stock of cotton. A decline in the afternoon was quickly recovered during the last half hour, and the market closed with indications of a better one tomor- row.
 Reports from the goods market are poor and prevent any buying for a perm anent advance In Liverpool new crop deliveries are in demand at relatively higher prices than here. which accounts for their strength in face of the good weather.

New Orleans March 29.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady at an advance of 1 to points. Fluctuations were irregu= lar around the first call, but the tend ency was upward on good cables and continued low temperatures in the cotton country. Shorts were good buyers and scalpers went long for a turn. On the rise heavy offerings were in evidence, apparently coming from the same source as the selling of yesterday, when 1t was popularly supposed that large line of long cotton was being liquidated. At the end of the first half hour of business the old crops, from a level points up, were unchanged to points down, com pared with yesterdays close. October, after selling points upfi fell off to the level of yesterdays close.
 It was a scalpers' market all the morn- ing, prices moving up and down with great regularity. although the range on the most active months did not exceed 10 points. At the lowest the old crop
