DEEDS ARE READY
| FOR THE COUNTY
Gulf Beach Commission Will Present
Data in Regard to Property to
County Commissioners.

At the next meeting of the county
commissioners, representatives of the
Gulf Beach commission will appear be-
fore the commissioners to present data
in regard to the deeds to Gulf Beach
property agreed upon between the
Gulf Beach commission and the county.
The transfers, including mortgages
and several releases and deeds to the
Chamber of Commerce, have been
drawn and executed and all is in readi-
ness for presentation to the county
commissioners, as soon as construction
work on the highway is started
The property, deeds to which will
be given the county, comprise very
desirable sections to be used by the
county as parking spaces, an automo-
bile camp and a large public park.
This property will be turned over to
the county free OF all encumbrances.
Other property will be decided to the
Chamber of Commerce to be held in
trust.
The object of this work on the part
of the Gulf Beach commission is to
prevent the undue exploiting of this
property when road construction work
is begun.
The property which is decided to the
Chamber of Commerce will be sold at
a price fixed by a committee which
has been working on the matter Of fix
ing a standardized price for the land.
The only commission which the Cham
Der Of Commerce will receive for the
sale of this property will be 10 per
cent, which will be used for further
development.

REDUCTION In RATES
ON FARM PRODUCTS
Interstate Commerce Commission Au-
thorizes Cut of 10 Per Cent.

The interstate commerce commits
sion authorized a reduction on Jan. /
of 10 per cent in rates on farm prod
ucts generally. The reduction was
applied throughout the United States,
with the exception of North Carolina
and Florida. Later North Carolina
put the reduction into effect.
The traffic department of the Cham
Der of Commerce has taken this mat
ter up with the Florida railroad COM
mission, and has been advised that
the commission authorized the 10 per
cent reduction on business in Florida
to be effective Jan. "a.
P. w. Reed, traffic manager of the
Pensacola Chamber of Commerce, said
yesterday afternoon that so far that
body has received no tariffs making
these special reductions, but that it is
expected that they may be received
within few days, as Florida people
are now entitled to a 10 per cent re-
duction on farm products.

FATE OF ARBUCKLE
Is WITH THE JURY
Second Trial of Movie Comedian
Comes to Close-Jury
Asks for Instructions.
(Ry The Associated Press)

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1.-The case
of Roscoe C. Arbuckle, accused OF
manslaughter in connection with the
death Of Miss Virginia Rappe, went to
the jury at 3:42 p. M, today after a
trial covering three weeks. 1t was
his second trial on the charge, the
first having resulted in jury dis
agreement.
Mrs. Estelle Baumister, one of the
two alternatives jurors who were ex-
cused when the jury retired, said that
in her opinion Arbuckle is not guilty
Henry Gutenberg, the other alternate.
declined to express an opinion, al
though he congratulated the defense
on its showing.
The defense sprung surprise by
announcing it would submit the case
to the jury without arguments. This
action so accelerated the case that the
Jury was able to begin celebrating a
day earlier than had been anticipated.
The announcement came at the end
of the first argument of the prosecu-
ton made by Milton I. U'Ren, assis-
tant district attorney. 1t had the eff
feet of shutting off further argument
by the prosecution as under the law,
such further argument could only be
a rebuttal of the final defense sum-
ming up.
Arbuckle, jovial and apparently care
free most of the day, was visibly nerv-
Gus when the jury retired. A throng
was drawn to the court room for the
final arguments and the police guard
had its hands full for the first time
since the trial opened.
Today's session saw the conclusion
of the prosecutions rebuttal testi-
mony. Three minor witnesses testi-
fled. The defense announced 1t would
make no sur-rebuttal and U'Ren then
began the sole closing argument. He
attacked in detail the testimony given
by ArbuclSle in the first trial of the
case holding that no proper explana-
ton had been given as to what tran
spired in Arbuckle's room in the hotel
st. Francis when the comedian is sup
posed to have fatally attacked Miss
Rape.
There was a moment of excitement
a little before o'clock when the jury
came back TO the court room, not,
however, to deliver the verdict as
many supposed. but to have some of
the testimony read to it again.
At $3.50 D. M, the jury sent for the
bailiff and asked him to summon the
judge as they wanted further in
structions.

P. W. REED LEAVES
FOR new ORLEANS
Traffic Manager Will Attend Confer

p. w. Reed, traffic manager of the
Pensacola Chamber of Commerce, will
represent that body at a conference to

tween railroad representatives of the
gulf cities, shippers and handlers of

For some time there has been much
dissatisfaction among local shippers in
regard to the rates on bunker coal,
and the traffic department of the
Chamber of Commerce, through the
traffic manager, Mr.. Reed, some time
ago took up with the interstate COM
merce commission the matter of read
justment of rates on bunker coal.

RY EDWIN CAMP

VYTHEN one sits down and
wv calmly studies a statisti-
cal record of cotton
prices during the past few years,
the wonder grows that the
southern farmer has not Ions
since become an anarchist and
outdone the Russian Reds at
their worst.
Think of his standing for con-
ditions which permitted the fol-
lowing:
In August, 1918, cotton sold at
$500 cents a pound, basis mid
ding in New York. This was at
the rate Of $191 a bale. But dur
ing the same month the same
grade brought only 29.70, which
is $14S.50 a bale. The farmer
who sold-who probably had to
sell-on the day the latter price
ruled lost exactly $42 so on every
bale.
In the next month. that is,
September, 1918, the price again
reached $500 and two months
later was down to 27.75. In three
months the difference in price
amounted to 1925 a bale.
The following February the
same cotton was quoted at %
cents fiat. And five months later
at $3.50. a bale worth $125 in
February was worth $191 five
months before and $3.50 five
months later.
An extreme example, you say?
Let's see.
Middling in Ne WORK was
worth 1410 cents pound in
February, 1917. That is 5000
a bale. Six months later it was
worth 27.S5, which is $139.25.
The difference is $6S.75.
1t lacked. you may notice, only
$1.75 Of being worth just exactly
twice as much.
In September, 1919, cotton
sold for 2S.45 cents-$142.2 a
bale. In less than thirty days it
sold for $192.75 Il pale. Within
another thirty days it sold for
$201 q bale. Three months later
it was worth only $1S7.55 a bale.
and within thirty days was
quoted at $216.25 a bale.
In July, 1920, when middling
was officially quoted at 1915,
