HOPES OF BETTER
 TRADE LOOM LARGER
Trend of Things Tempered by Conservatism; Positive
 Dullness in South

New York. September l1.-Bradstreet' s tomorrow will say:
 Hopes of better trade loom larger than do actual transactions. The trend of things is tempered by conservatism, with positive dullness in the south. Fall fes- tivals at numerous places have been for somewhat heavier buying, but the inn provement thus reflected is only rela- tive, and in industrial lines the pace of operations is slow. As yet American merchants are groping for foreign mar kets, and the situation is still one of promise rather than performance. It is conceded that fundamental conditions are sound. crops being of excellent volume, and that ultimately crop money will make itself felt but high rates for money check enterprise, while high prices or as in the case of cotton. too low prices hamper buying and tend to further ce- ment buyers to the policy of awaiting developments before ordering liberally

JEFFERSON EXCISE
 COMM|SS|ONSHlP STILL UNSETTLED
Delegations Before Gov ernor for Various Appli- cants-NO Action
 Taken

Montgomery. September 1l.-(Special.) No action was taken by the governor to- day in reference to the Jefferson county excise commission situation. Several well known citizens from Birmingham called on the governor in regard to the appoint ments.
 The greater part of the day was given over by the governor to hearing argu- ments either in favor of or against cer- tain of the applicants for a position on the excise commission, but the executive did not give assurance to anyone, so far as could be ascertained, concerning his probable action
 Chairman w. c. Agee had a number of persons from the Magic City to urge his reappointment on the commission, while probably an equal number spoke in behalf or John B. Rosenstihl The principal fight has been on the appointment of chair man of the commission, and while the governor has not yet indicated what he will do, it is thought probable that either MT Agee or MT. Rosenstihl will secure the office It is thought that the gov ernor will reappoint D. Wilkinson as as- sociate member of the commission.
 In addition to Chairman Agee and MT. Rosenstihl, the following are applicants for appointment on the commissions: Dr. J. Gray Thomas, George H. Bodeker. E. Wilkinson, pr. w. c. Gewin, G. Rotholz, J. H. White, c. A. Tyson. J. Lee Shalton, John N. Vinson, Capt. John c. Smith. W. B. Beacham, Judge Thomas Rogers.

300 BALES OF OLD STRADDLE LIQUIDATED

New York. September 11.-Only 300 bales of the old straddle interest were liquidated through the operations of the special cotton exchange commit- tee today. but the talk suggested in creasing cheerfulness as to the general situation and market outlook.
 The fact that offerings of spot cot ton have not increased during the last several days of good picking weather has been partly responsible for greater optimism, while the trade here has also been impressed by the various meas ures adopted to distribute the burden of holding and financing the crop. 1t was rumored that local traders were trying to buy December contracts pri- vately at a considerable advance as compared with their bids earlier in the week.
