ST. FOLLOW AS THE NIGHT TTsE DAY: THOU CANS
PROSPERITY is ADVANCING.
All Federal Departments Note IL dica-
tfOnS of Betterment.

Washington, Nov. 20.-Th. pros
perity talk is abroad in the land:
President Wilson haA Joined with
Secretaries Redfield anL McAd,,o and.
all hands are hopeful If fine days.
There is no doubt about the incr<as-
ed demand for certain things that
Uncle Sam produces Tie orders for
oats, wheat and other .oodstuffs are
growing larger and becoming more
frequent.
Good news comes from all the de-
partments that have anything to do
with exports. 1t Is believed here
cotton will go higher and move easier
from this time on than it has done
since the beginning of the war.
One has but to look at the exports
of cotton for October, 1913, and Oc-
tober, 1914, to see what is the mat
ter with the price Of cotton. In Octo-
ber, 1913, this country exported 791S
74S,2S6 pounds Of cotton and re-
ceived for it $1O7, 7,375,197, against
2G2,3 13 ,434 pounds in October, 1914,
receiving for it only $40, ,420,043.
These figures tell the story of cotton
The situation as regards cotton is
improving slowly. Foreign coun-
tries are beginning to take more.
The climb in the value Of oats,
wheat and other grains that are be-
ing exported is considered signifi-
cant. 1t is predicted by experts in
agriculture that oats, wheat, horses
and beef cattle will be in greater de-
mand as the war continues.
New Demands Created.
The Treasury Department, the De-
partment of Commerce and the De-
partment of Agriculture report inn
proved business conditions. Presi-
dent Wilson has been told by Secre-
taries McAdoo, Redfield and Houston
that the depression caused by the
outbreak of the European war is
passing and that the American indus
les are adjusting themselves to
."he advantage Vi new opportunities
and meet new demands that have
been created by the war.
Reports on the imports and ex-
ports from ten leading ports Of the
United States for the week ending
November IA, 1914, show a balance
on merchandise transactions Of $21,-
S76,342 in favor Of this country.
The restoration Of the credit bal
ance with Europe has greatly relev-
ed the situation, and the increased
demand for American foodstuffs and
the abnormal trade in articles need
ed for the big armies has put thou
sands of people who were loafing to
work.

LEO FRANK LOSES AGAIN.
Justice Lamar Refuses Hearing-At-
tOrneys Will Still Fight.

Washington, Nov. 23.---hSscciate
Justice Jos. R. Lamar denied this af.
ternoon the application Of Leo NJ.
Franks lawyers for a writ of error
which would bring this murder case
before the Supreme Court and stay
the execution OF the death penalty.
Unless some other Justice should
take a different view and grant the
writ, the case is ended SO far as the
Supreme. Court is concerned.
Franks lawyers are preparing an
appeal to each Of the other members
Of the court in succession. For this
reason they have declined to make
public the memorandum prepared by
Justice Lamar in denying the appli..
cation for the writ.
II. A. Alexander and H. C. PEOPLES,
the Atlanta lawyers, are still here
and will begin tomorrow to lay the
case before other individual men,
bers Of the Supreme Court.
This they have a perfect right to
do, and if any single Justice should
decide to grant the writ the case
would come before the Supreme
Court for a decision as to whether
Frank was denied a substantial right
in not being present in the court
room when the verdict Of "guilty"
was returned.
Justice Lamar had before him in
deciding upon the application the
decision of the Georgia Supreme
Court, which indicated that had the
question of Franks exclusion from
the court room been stated in the
original application for new trial,
instead of six months later, that a
different opinion would have been
rendered by the Court. Under the
laws and customs of Georgia a man
cannot sign away substantial right,
such as being present in court when
