Summit independent, which will be
edited by John D. Smull, formerly Of
the Grant County News at MiibanK
The initial number OF the independent

outcome Of the factional strife that
has prevailed there for some years

Gambler to the local realty market
In the purchase from Fitzhugh Knox
Of the northeast corner of Ivy and
East Baker streets, full account of
which appears elsewhere.
For quite while Mr. Gamblers at
tention was conferred on his interests
in New York. Chicago, Baltimore and
Washington, and he kept out of local
real estate activities. Now that he
has invested again on the north side,
close to his other holdings, there is a
feeling that the real estate market
will again take on it's accustomed hue.
The volume of small trading has
probably been greater this ear than
ever before. Figures from time to
time have shown 1875 transfers to be
far ahead of 1925 in medium priced
propositions. The large transfers,
however. fell off and a good deal of
swapping in central and semi central
property resulted.
Naturally, the real estate prophets
have been watching Mr.. Gambler, and
now that he has expressed him conf
dence in the Ivy street neighborhood,
good deal more semi-central trad
ing in that section and elsewhere is
expected to follow.
No general opinion has been form
ed as to the effect of Ivy street re-
grading. Ivy street this year, before
and after the improvement, has been
comparatively quiet. There has been
more activity half block east Of
Peachtree on the cross streets be-
tween Ivy I'd Peachtree, but the ten
dency has been to stay within half a
block of the latter thoroughfare.
Now 1t Is expected that the future
that Mr.. Gambler sees will be seen
soon by others, and that Ivy street,
from Peachtree to Decatur streets.
it's entire extent, will be a live trad
ing center. Joel Hurts holdings at
the southern terminus of Ivy street,
the Hurt Building and adjoining prop
critics, are holding up the prestige OF
the thoroughfare to the south, and
with Mr. Gambler on the other end
the future of the street seems assured.

MEMPHIS, Nov. 1.-THE Commercial
Appeal estimates the growth of this
years cotton crop at 1852. 900 bales.
These figures do not include linters.

their part into the size of the crop in
their sections

The high price paid for the staple
has resulted in rush by farmers to
get their product to market there being
almost no holding reported. A few in
stances of holding for higher prices are
reported from districts. where heavy
rains damaged the grade ard farmers
refuse to take the price bid for the low
grades.
These are very few, however.
Damage from frost was confined al
most exclusively to eastern Arkansas,
where much damage was done in the
overf1owed territory, and to the eastern
States, North Carolina having suffered
especially heavy loss in this regard.
The staple is said to be fairly good
In the east, but much damage has

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE Mexican

both the New York and London stock

NEW ORLEANS, Nov 17.-The Mem
phis Commercial Appeal makes the crop
1852, 600 bales, without linters. This
Is $4,000 less than last year, when their
estimate of 1885, 900 bales proved about
the best forecast. as. added to this
amount, 606,000 linters. the total was
l4,201 900 bales, against 14167000 actual
crop, Hester's figures. Chances are
that there will be less linters this year,
as there are numerous reports of spoiled
seed being refused by crushers.
Precipitation occurred over the great
er part of the belt over Sunday, but II
was generally light to moderate. Wash
ington predicts a week of unsettled and
rainy weather.
Liverpool is stagnant. owing to freer
offerings at present.
Our markets reflected bullish opinion
at the start with an advance of 8 points
in the face of an easier Liverpool, but
prices fell back later on, the support
not being steady enough. Views about
the coming Census report caused many
to wait. The same applies to spot in
terests, and as offerings are fairly lib
eral at this time. prices at best are
steady.
