NEW ORLEANS, Sept 25.-The ex-
cited bull markets abroad are hardly
surprising when Liverpool letters show
crop views as low as 10000 900 and be-
low-ideas which have been created by
the sudden turn in the market.
The break in Government securities
is explained Sy news Of war-like opera
tions in the Balkans A report from
Seryia says all trains requisitioned for
military purposes; reservists recalled to
colOTs.
owing to the twelve days drouth
which followed August % and the de
pressing effect of damage to quality by
rains, condition returns are expected to
be pessimstic, and a decline of to 6
points from last months condition is
generally expected.
The private condition forecasts by
the usual Authorities are expected next
week all bullsh. The market was rath-
er disappointing this morning II opened
barely higher in spite Of the encOurag-
ing Liverpool and rain reports from the
West and soon eased 10 points. There
has been some strong selling lately on
rallies. which is attributed to liquida-
tion 81 certain professional bull lines.
Failure to arrive at definite result in

The New Orleans Times Democrat
says;
Cotton market aviators who have
been pointing to the sky lately found
their first hole in the air early in the
session yesterday, when prices, without
any particular reason that anybody
could find out, suddenly slumped 20
points from the high level of the day
on the present advance. The market
subsequently, as the news from Wash
ington became more favorable regard
ing the prospect of a modification of the
Clarke amendment by the conference
committee, gradually recovered, but the
mornings experience served as a warn
ing to those who were inclined to think
the market could continue to advance
Indefinitely without becoming dangerous
with Liverpool booming, both on
spots and futures, prices on this side
made rather poor response at the
opening. An official forecast OF unset
tied and colder weather in the western
belt, frost being predicted for North
west oklahoma, gave an upward i'm
petus, however, but the advance stopped
at the previous high level-1S.60 for
January contract
'It was from that rather high alti-
tude that the drop came, and while It
lasted the trading around the local ring
was about as excited as il was during
some stages OF the Sully year. The
younger element in the market stood
aside, and the veterans OF the business
took command. and quickly rallied
prices"

COTTON GOES UP
IN CLOSING HOUR
OoGd Map and Irregular Cables
Cause Dip-Traders Awaiting
Washington News.

NEW YORK, Sept 25.-Cables from
Liverpool were irregular at the opening
Of the cotton market to-day. but the
tone was steady and first prices were
to points better than the closing
quotations Of Wednesday. While trad
ing was not large. the market held very
steady before the call through buying
by Memphis and New Orleans The
bulls cheerfuliy supported the list. jus
trying their action on weather reports
from the southwest. Prices, however,
cnly advanced l to points over the
opening.
Weather conditions overnight were re-
garded very favorable. The map showed
no cold weather Of consequence in East
Texas. but showed rather high temper
atures and further showers, which are
needed for the crop after a week of
dry weather. 1t is alleged that the
grade might be lowered but this kind OF
weather makes more cotton.
After the call there was hasty liqui-
dation and some short selling, with SEN
timent badly mixed and the entire trade
up IN the air pending some definite de-
cision from Washington in regard to the
Clarke amendment taxing cotton fu-
lures SOC bale The market was nerv-
Gus and looked as IL II would spill
yesterday. After prices had fell off to
points from the previous close, the
selling pressure slackened to some ex-
tent. causing a few points rally from
the low mark
News from the Capitol was very favor
able. 1t is probable that the Smith
substitute for the Clarke amendment
will be adopted by the tariff conferees.
The market ruled dun and extremely
narrow during the early part Of the aft
ernoon session, prices being held about
points under the initial range There
was some trade buying and the South
also bought. The volume OF business
was small. The market was furnished
sufficient offerings by early sellers to
prevent a reaction. However, a reac.
ton Is freely talked in some quarters
as result OF the heavy liquidation dur
ing the past few days
The market developed unexpected
strength during the last half hour
through good buying by some Of the
large spot houses. The ring looked
short and covered, resulting in a rapid
advance Of about 10 points
At the close the tone was steady
with prices at a net advance of to II
points from the final quotations Of

To Use Single Cards.

A number of local renting agents
have adopted and signed resolutions
against the use Of more than one
renting card on Atlanta houses. In
1910 certain agents agreed to this
rule, but some have departed from
the custom, and confusion has re-
suited. Hereafter the members who
are in the agreement will respect
cards previously placed, but this will
not keep more than one agent from
trying to rent the house. One card
may replace another on consent of
the owner.
Agents who do not enter the agree
ment will find the others competing
with them in the matter of signs or
cards, as in the past.

Gain in Building

HerIod in 1918 Far Ahead of 1912.
Board Directors and Renting

The thirty eighth week of 1913
SHOWS large gain over the cor
responding week during 1912 in real
estate transfers. There was a total
OF 2Ol transactions, involving an ag-
gregate Of $691,441, while the totals
for last year were 16s and S433.29O.
Building permits also showed
surprising gain. Eighty eight struc-
lures were started at a cost of S223.-
SSI, while in the same wek last year
there were IS and S76.557.
Cancellations were less in number
and amount, being 27 and $27,3S9, as
against SO and $S7.144.
Mortgage and loan deeds were less,
which shows that the period had more
hard pressed persons last year. The
totals were 50 and $115,5S4, as against
So and S179,099.
