COUNCIL WILL ELECT ALL
OFFICERS ON FRIDAY NIGHT
So Far Little or No Opposition Has
Developed.

City council will meet again on
Friday night and the session prom
ises to be an unusually interesting
one, as a number of important mat
ters will probably come up, as is us
ually. the case during the first of the
year
The special committee on officers
and salaries. appointed yesterday by
Mayor Butts, will submit their report
and more than ordinary interest al
ways attaches to this report, 1t is
not expected, however, that any
changes of interest will be made
While no announcement has been
made, it is Understood that at This
meeting council will also elect alH Of
ficers for the present year. AS sthted
in The News few days ago, veryIlit-
tie if any opposition to the present
list Of officers has developed, and the
chances. are that large majority of
them will be reelected without oppo-

This is announcement Made by Way.
cross Paper.

The Waycross Herald of yesterday
contains the following interesting ar
ticle:
Unless the present congressman of
the Eleventh district decides to enter
a contest for one OF, the higher offices
in the state the voters of Eleventh
will this year again unanimously elect
him to represent them in congress.
Hon VIM. G. Brantley will there
by establish quite a neat record and
one of which he may be justly proud.
@of course there is always some
talk of him having opposition, but so
far none has gotten out against the
able representative except in talk.
Several men in this district are
known to be keen for the job, among
them many citizens of Lowndes, Cof-
fee and Ware counties.
"Mr. Brantley is undoubtedly
stronger than he has ever been polit-
ically and the only chance for his po-
sition is by the present congressman
running for another office"

NEW RULINGS MADE BY
SUPREME COURT YESTERDAY
Lawyers Must File Briefs in THE to
Give Opposing Counsel Opportunity.

Washington, Jan. 1.--Lawyers prac-
ticing before the supreme court oI
the United States will be forced here
after to give helping hand to the
courts movement to facilitate busi-
ness.
According to the new court ruIes,
which went into effect today attor-
neys for the plaintiff before the SUI
preme court must file their briefs
three weeks before their case is called
for oral argument. The defendants
attorneys must file their brief one
week before the arguments are made.
In ali cases the clerk of the court
is instructed to receive no briefs
where counsel has not served copies
on opposing counsel. The latter pro-
vision was designed to put an end to
counsel appearing before the court
unprepared to hear arguments on the
opposing side and delaying the court
by supplemental briefs dealing with
the opposing argument
The court has announced its deter
mination to receive no briefs after a
case has been argued orally.

WALL STREET IS
HOPING FOR BIG
1872 BUSINESS
PAST SEASON WAS THE WORST
IN YEARS, SAY oLo-TIME eRoK-

Macy Firms Have Failed During the
Past Year Because Of Pubic's Faft-

Gloom Stops Celebration.

New York, Jan. 1.---Wall street will
begin the new year with the wish that
it may be more prosperous than it
was in 1911. When business is re-
sumed tomorrow in the nafincial world
after the holiday, brokers will givce
each other with better luck this
year," rather than the usual "Happy
New Year!"
The last twelve months have seen
hard times in Wall street. a
Business was poor most of last year
except for a few of the large houses.
A broker who has been in Wall street
for twenty one years, said, that sast
year was the dullest he ever saw ex-
perienced. Some brokers were forced
to quit the street to earn living. One
such former broker is selling automo-
miles. Another is New York represen-
tative of a Southern cotton concern.
Worse Than 1910.
Trading in stocks fell far below that
of 1910, itself not a good year. Not
only on the Stock Exchange, but on
the ether exchanges, and in the curb
market the depression was felt.
All through the year the public re-
fused to buy stocks. There was &C
tive speculation at times among Wall
street traders, but there was no gem
eral participation by the public. 1t
was this which was felt most keenly.
Some brokerage houses were compete
ed 10 reduce their expenses largely.
Employees were discharged, private
telegraph wires curtailed wherever
possible. A few of the larger houses
with the best connections were able
to do a large business, but for the
majority conditions were unfavorable.
The years poor business conditions
We're generally regarded as responsi-'
Bile for the slump in trading.
Too Gloomy to Celebrate.
When Wall street shut up shop for
1911 with the ringing of the gong on
! the Stock Exchange at noon Satur-
day, feeble cheer was given by the
brokers on the floor. That was the
only tribute TO tn6 passing or the year
and in failing to observe the day with
hilarious celebration, a tradition Of
many years standing was shattered. It
is customary to celebrate the turn OF
the year by decorating the exchange
with evergreens and holly, and by
bringing in a band. The younger
members are expected to make
noise. But the old year ended in such
deep gloom that nothing of the kind
was attempted. On the Consolidated
Stock Exchange, or little board" as
it is known, there was Christmas
celebration, and the Produce Ex-
change provided a vaudeville enter
tairment and square meal Coz some
Of he city's poor children.

SOUTHERN BANKS
SHOW STRENGTH

Washington. D. c., Jan. 6.--The an.
nual report of the comptroller of the
currency, made public today, shows
the southern states In an aunusually
favorable light, according to a state.
ment prepared by the Southern Com.
mercial Congress.
While the average percentage of in.
crease in individual deposits for the
United States between June 30th, 1910
and June 7th, 1911, was 407, the
southern states showed 1852 as their
percentage. The next nearest percent.
age was 5.35 in the middle western
states The eastern states showed
only 2,11. In deposits, banks in the
southern states have the highest per.
centage of increase, 1922. The east.
ern states come next with 916.
Comparing loans and discounts on
the dates September /, 1911 and De
cember 5, 1911, all the banks in south
ern states showed gains, while New
York showed a heavy loss in loans, in
cash and in deposits. The highest
percentage of increase in loans and
discounts $50 per cent, was shown in
the southern states. The middle west
came next with 421.
Between March IA, 1900 and October
1911. 1885 national banks were organ
ized in the southern states with cap
ital of s72,591 500. This was a greater
number of banks and larger capital
than in any main division of the coun-
try except the middle west.
Managing Director Dave of the
Southern Commercial Congress will
