HUNTING IN GEORGIA
 NOW COSTS MONEY

| Atlanta, Ga, October 4.-(Special)-
 Game is now being protected in Georgia. under a new law passed by the last gen.
 eral assembly. which prohibits the shoot ing of certain kind of game, until 1916,
 and requires license to shoot at any kind
 Of game. The license for resident of
 the state costs $S and for a nonresident
 s15. Immediately the new law has given jobs to a large number of people in the
 state. Editor Mercer of Fitzgerald was appointed game warden by Hoke Smith, and since his appointment he has been busy naming deputies in every county of the state. In many of the counties the | number of hunters is small and the third of all the fees. which is the pay of the assistant warden, does not amount to much.
 In Fulton county 1t is figured that the pickings ought to be very good and Jesse Mercer had an idea that he would like to put in J. W. McCord as deputy. The income from the office ought to be worth
 about 5000, for while there is little hunt ing ground in Fulton, 1t is the capital
 of the state, and many people would reg lster from here, in order to hunt in other counties. A howl arose, however, when 1t was discovered that while MT. McCord is a
 most estimable man, his home was in
 Crawfordville, Ga, about eight miles away from Atlanta, and nowhere near the
 limits of Fulton county. Consequently
 the title of MT. McCord has been some
 what changed and it Is now stated that
 he will be assistant game warden, and
 will have an office at the capitol
 The law in Georgia will be thoroughly
 enforced, it is stated, notwithstanding tho fact that it was passed with an error in it, which almost invalidates certain parts
 of it, making it unlawful to shoot birds after 1916, whereas the purport of the law
 was that no birds of this kind were to
 be shot until 1916. Warden Mercer de- olares that ne will arrest people first for violations, and let them fight it out in the courts. The error was made by an
 expressing clerk

COTTON MARKET
 CLOSES STEADY
Staple Shows Advance After Inactive Day and Nervous
 Fluctuations

New York, October 1.-The cotton mar
 ket was less active today, but while fluc- | tuations were more or less irregular and the tone rather nervous, the ruling of prices was steadier in the main and the close was very steady at a net advance | of and Il points.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of to Il points in response to better cables than looked for, reports
 that the south was offering spot less freely and talk of better business in cot ton grades at Manchester. Overnight selling orders from the south were rather heavy and the market eased off after the opening under the pressure from this source and reselling by some of yester- days early buyers, but after showing net loss of from 1 to points in the mld- de of the day, prices firmed up again on more active demand from shorts and trade buying which seemed to be inspired by reports of steadier spot mar kets in the south, predictions or colder weather and possibility of increased ner- vousness with the approach of the front period. Active months sold about Il to F points net higher late in the day ana closed within point or two of the best.
 Immediate weather conditions were considered generally favorable in the south.
 Private advices from several points in the interior reported steadier feeling in the spot situation and with the southern spot markets officially reported unehang- ed to one-eighth cent higher the improve ments in this direction appeared to be the chief factor on the days advance.
 Many of those who were talking a ral- ly, however, expressed continued confi- dence in ultimately lower prices and a feeling that any advance will prove tenn porary, probably prevented more aggres- sve support although at times buying was quite active, particularly in the late trading.
 Receipts today, 6O,SS1, bales against 65,- POS last week and 51,2S0 last year. Todays receipts at New Orleans, $500 bales. against 5171 last year and at Houston 22, 934 bales against 17,29s last year.

NORMAL TRADE ON MORRIS AVENUE
  Poultry Stock Low Fruit and Produce Receipts
 Heavy

The merchants on Morris avenue experi- creed normal trade yesterday which was very gratifying in view of the un- seasonable hot weather. Business in the fowl markets. however. was curtailed in the latter part of the day on account of insufficient stock. Chickens are offered at 16 cents per pound.
 Fruit produce receipts Wednesday were comparatively heavy. Among the ar- rivals reported were two cars of cabbage from Wisconsin and a carload Of apples, the cabbage being offered at IF cents per pound.
 The influx of visitors to attend the fair will likely benefit some of the Morris avenue merchants in the way of trade. The produce dealers, however, say that instead of the fair increasing their trade it will have @ depressing effect.

Boy Shot Big Eagle

From the Chicago Tribune.
 Ten-year-old Otto Frame, a farmer s boy living seven miles from Michigan City. killed a big bald head eagle and saved his baby brother from serious in Jury if not from death last week.
 The children were playing alone in the yard, the older members of the family having gone to town, when they saw the big bird circling above them. The boy ran into the house and took down his fathers shotgun. AS he ran back to the yard the eagle swooped down upon the boby. Otto raised the gun and fired both barrels.
 The big bird fell dead shot through the breast within a few feet of the little boy. Soon after Otto's father, Chauncey B. Frame. returned. They stretched GU, the dead eagle. It measured feet from wing tip to wing tip.

INDEFINITE TREND IN STOCK MARKET Continued Irregularity Pre-
 vails, U. s. Steel Falling
 as Off Two Points

[ New York, October 4-Further irregu- larity prevailed today in the stock mar ket, which failed to develop a definite trend. The elements of reaction were again conspicuous. Opening prices were irregular. Within the first few minutes the market fell off materially and during the morning fell below yesterdays tinal quotations. United States steel sold off nearly two points and some of the standard railroad ! issues almost as much. In the afternoon the market slowly recovered, only to Tall back toward the close. azA The pressure against St. Paul was con- : tinued and this stock fell below 106 for :. the first time since 190S,, The recent acute weakness of this issue. which has given rise to conjectures as to the stability of the dividend rate was partially explained by the appearance of the August report of the road. It showed decrease of more than s5o0,0Oo in gross receipts and s459,O00 in the net.
 A few issues developed pronounced strength.
 Western Union made the most conspicu-  stock soon would be placed on a four per cent dividend basis. Canadian Pa eific responded to brisk buying whica was said to be for foreign account. Atchi- son. Northern Pacific and New York Gen. tral were firm, refecting their recent re- ports of earnings.
 Europe was reported to have bought moderately here. Foreign conditions, so far as they had to do with developments in the war, were not calculated to make for any degree of optimism.
 Advices from Paris conveyed the inti- nation that the October settlements which begin there tomorrow probably will be accomplished without strain.
 It is not the less apparent that the -faoney markets of Europe are conserving the resources as is seldom done except in times of threatened trouble. 4
 Discounts were easier in London despite the shipments by the Bank of England of $3,250,oOO in gold to South America, which may or may not have been for the account of the Bank of France. Further reductions of prices of various steel. products emphasized the unsettled conditions in that industry.
 Statistics of pig iron production in Sep tember, which were received today, made a favorable showing, the rate of daily production having increased from 62,150 tons in August to $500 last month
 Suspension of increased cattle freight rates in the west, the bitterness of the struggle in the railway strike on the Hartman lines and opposition to the re- organizations plans for the American To- bacco company probably were factors in the stock markets unsettlement.
 American tobacco bonds were heavy thoungh subsequently, recovering, The general bond market was irregular and fluctuations were narrow. Total sales par value $2,560000.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call,

New Orleans, October A.---Cotton fu. lures opened barely steady at an ad- vance of 1 to points on good cables and a moderate amount of short cover ing. The weather map was extremely favorable and crop accounts were bear ish; interior points continued to com plain Of the lack of q spot demand and the movement loonod up larger than last week when 1t was record break ing. All of this stimulated frosfl short selling until offerings wcro more than the market could absorb. At tho end Of tho first hour or business prices were 1 to points under yesterdays close at the highest trading months were 3 to points over.
 The market was quiet and narrow throughout the morning session. Little outside business came in and ring scalpers did most of the trading. A certain clement still worked for a re- action upward and around the middl 0 of the morning put prices to points over yesterdays close. Tho market ha d no real buying power, however, and as soon as the manipulation ceased pricee fcil off again. At noon tho trading months were ? points up to 1 point down compared with yesterdays final quotations.
 In the afternoon the ring was slight ly more active and the market was steadier on increased buying based on expectations of a reaction. At o'clock the trading months were [ to months over yesterdays close.
 The market closed very steady at a net advance of IS to 14 points.

Hubbard Bros. x Co.'s Letter

New York, October 4.-(SpeeiaL)-A the markets have been looking for re- action from the weakness of Monday. which came today on buying based on the idea that at these prices, or little below, the demand from spinners would absorb the offerings and thereby check hedge selling, which has been the weight on the market. Many Wall street houses bought heavily on this belief and also on the theory we mentioned yesterday, that with the publication of the gin- ming returns and the crop condition, all of the favorable factors had been eX- hausted for the moment and any change in conditions would advance prices.
 Liverpool is also looking for reaction and should advance from to points to- morrow.
