WALKING ON TRACK,
AGED MAN IS KILLED
BY MARIETTA CAR

A man identified as William An
derson, seventy-three years old, of
Tate, Ca, was fatally injured Thurs
day morning, about 7:45 o'clock,
when he was struck by a Marietta,
Ga, trolley car while walking along
the track about one and one-half
miles south of Smyrna, near Camp
bells crossing.
The base of his skull fractured,
Mr.. Anderson died about thirty min
utes after the accident in a physl-
clans office at Smyrna. The man
had been visiting his daughter, Mrs.
Bert Clark, living near the scene of
the accident, and it is believed he
started to walk down the track to
the home of another daughter, Mrs.
Sim knight, who resides near the
Atlanta pumping station.
The report of Motorman T. T.
Carroll to the starters office of the
Georgia Railway and Power COM
pany, in Atlanta, related how the
accident occurred, Mr.. Anderson,
he said, was walking along the side
of the track when he was first seen
by the car crew. The whistle was
sounded in warning, but the man
evidently did not hear it, for just
about that time, he stepped onto
the track and was struck before the
car could be stopped.
The body was taken to Black $
undertaking establishment in Mari
eta, pending funeral arrangements.
In addition to the two daughters
named above, Mr.. Anderson is sur
vived by a third daughter, Mrs.
Johnson, living at Dunwoody, Ca

Mid-Month Crop Report
OF Southeastern States

United States department OF agriculture,
bureau of agricultural economics, southeast
ern mid-month crop review.
Compiled by the local statistican from
the reports of statisticians in North Carroll
ma, South Carolina, Tennessee. Alabama,
Florida and Georgia, covering the period
from October 1 to October To- and issued by
the Georgia Cooperative Crop Reporting
service.)
Corn
Good progress has been made in harvesting
early corn, with excellent weather conditions
prevailing. Alucht late corn suffered from
drought in northern Georgia, South Caro-
lima and Tennessee.
Small Grains
Very little grain has been sown or fall
blowing done in Georgia and South Caro-
lima to date. The land has been too dry for
very active preparation throughout the re-
mainder of the region, although some work
is being done in Tennessee and North Caro-
lima, with small amount already sown.
Planting of oats is in progress in Florida.
Indications are for some increase in acreage
to be sown in oats this fail in Georgia, un-
less dry weather delays preparation to such
extent as to make it Impossible to get
them in.
Cotton
Cotton is practically ali out of the fields
in Florida and south Georgia; about two
thirds picked in the northern half of Ceor-
gia, and fourfift picked in South Caro-
lima. Picking is progressing in the southern
counties of Tennessee and just beginning Ill
the more northern counties.
The yield is proving better than ex-
pected in North Carolina where the cotton
leaf worm has stripped quite a large per-
centage or the leaves from the plants
throughout the state resulting in earlier
opening and picking, 1t has also enabled the
farmers to appreciate better the condition
of the crop.
Hay and Pastures
With the weather favorable, practically
all hay has been harvested nh excellent con-
dition. Yields were good in Florida, North
Carolina and Tennessee; fair in South Caro-
lima and rather low in Georgia. Dry wealth
err caused deteriorat ion in pastures.
Tabacco
The busiest season for the auction markets
is now on in North Carolina. Prices are re-
ported as fairly satisfactory, considering the
Atlanta tri-weekly journal. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1920-19??, 1923-10-20

CLEVELAND IS OUT
Of RACE FOR NEXT
DEMOCRAT MEET

NEW YORK, Oct. 1S.-Cleveland
has withdrawn as contender for
the next Democratic national con-
vention, according to John r,
Young, secretary of the committee
which is seeking to bring the gath
ering to New York. Chicago with
drew several weeks ago, Mr. Young
said, declaring the two withdrawals
appeared to leave this city alone in
the field as a contender.
Chicago, he said, abandoned all
hope when it was announced that
New York intended to raise fund
of at least $250,000 to entertain the
convention next summer.
Word received today from Cleve-
land, Mr.. Young added, was that
while that city was confident it c~-sAld
raise a fund to pay the expenses OF
the convention, it had decided to re-
linquish it's claim because it had
been learned that a majority of
members of the national Democratic
committee had openly spoken in
favor of New York.

CHICAGO, Oct. 1S.-Wheat reflected the
changed technical position today as result
of the elimination of much of the long in
terest late yesterday. The market eased
under a little further liquidation at the
opening, but commission house buying broad
ened after a moderate decline and prices
recovered a fraction, holding almost sta
tionary in the later trading. Russian news
was promiscuously circulated, but it had
little effect the market. OF some i'm
portance was the reported clearance of
1,224, 600 bushels of wheat and 4SS,OO0 bush
els of rye from that country. A grain eN-
port concern is reported to have been
formed by British and Russian interests
and credit of $j,000,000 has been extended
to them. Also Norway is said to have con-
tracted with Russia for 100000 bushels of
wheat, her entire import needs. Export de-
mand here was light Mills took a moder-
