amendment, to construct viaducts
over the railroad tracks at Pryor
street and Central avenue. The tax,
equalization repeal bill also Is on the
calendar and should come up early
in the week. Most Of the important
bills are in the hands of committees,
but can be disposed of without much
delay and put on the calendar for
final reading.
There is considerable speculation
in both houses as to the possibility
of passing the biennial session bill
at this time The governor advo-
Gates such a measure and it has ad-
herents in both houses, but oppost-.
ton has developed and bitter fight,
Isl in prospect. The same situation
is apparent with reference to the
measure giving statehouse officers
four-year terms. Veteran legislators
are of the opinion that neither bill
will get through without strenu-
Gus contest.
Tax legislation is not commanding
the attention it did last session. The
governors message, while advocat-
ing certain reforms, did not empfla-
size this feature particularly, and
the issue has not developed any par
ticular strength thus far, although
opponents of the tax equalization
law are numerous in both houses. .
Reports on Bills Expected
Committees Of both houses already
have begun functioning and many
bills are expected to be reported out
early this week, thus giving the leg
islators plenty of business matters
for their consideration.
The proposal to issue $40,000,00O
in state highway bonds is to come
up shortly in the house, as is the
measure which would authorize the
issuance of $8,000,000 state bonds
for the building Of schoolhouses and
additional facilities at the various
state colleges.
The emergency appropriations for.
variations for various state institI&
tons, educational and philanthron2
will command attention within the
| next few days.

melon Shipments
From Georgia Are
Heavy; Prices Good

MOULTRIE, Ga, June 27-South
Georgia shipped at least 800 cars
Of watermelons the first three days
Of this week, local buyers estimate.
The movement during the last
three days of the week will be even
heavier. The price has ranged from
$3.50 to $3.50 per car f. o. b. the
shipping point, it is stated. No
break in the market is looked for
until next week. but the demand in
the west is said to be less active
than it was last week because of
rain and u1seasonably low tempera-
lures.
Growers are being urged to load
all melons that are ready this week,
as those leaving as late as Satur-
day will arrive in time for the
Fourth of July trade. The move
ment is expected to be light on
Monday and Tuesday of next week,
but by Wednesday or Thursday the
shipping season will be at it's high
est point.
Competition from Florida is not
having as bad effect on the market

ago thought it would prove to be-

Hearing on Permanent In
junction to Bar Straw
Packed Fruit From Georgia
to Be Held Monday-Judge
Refuses PoStponennent

Despite efforts of state authori
ties and representatives of the At
iantic Coast Line railway to reach
an agreement, indications late Sat
urday uight were that the injunc
ton hearing in the Georgia Florida
melon controversy would come ur
in federal district court here Mon
day, as scheduled.
Conferences between Attorney
General George n Napier and At
torney Robert c. Aston, represent
ing the railroads, had failed Satur
day night. and Mr.. Aston held
small hope that he would be able
to get in touch with operating of
ficials of the railroad at ACadquar
ters and gain from them approval
of certain stipulati0na laid down by
the attorney general as necessary
for an agreement.
Efforts to reach an agreement fol
followed action by United States
Judge Samuel H. Sibley on Satur.
day morning in declining to grant a
continuance of the hearing as re.
Quested by the railroad. In declin
ing to grant the continuance, Judge
Sibley pointed out that the other two
federal judges-Circuit Judge Ma
than P. Bryan and District Judge
William H. Barrett-Who will sit
with him, had already made arrange
ments to come to Atlanta for the
hearing.
Re-infestation Noted
Permanently of an injunction is
sued on June 81 by Judge Sibley is
at issue. The temporary order re-
strains Peter F. Bahnsen, state vet
ernarian, from enforcing an embargo
on watermelon shipments packed
in pine straw from Florida, but
which specified certain conditions to
which the railroad must subscribe if
pine straw was used as packing
DIR. Bahnsen stated Saturday that
despito the roads conformance to
the courts stipualtions there is evil
dancc that south Georgia is being re-
infested with cattle ticks, the evil
which his embargo order sought to
prevent. This was pointed out at
the conference Saturday.
Would Disinfect Cars
DIR. Bahnsen and Attorney Gen.
eral Napier proposed that the mel
onS be allowed to pass through
Georgia packed as stipulated in the
original court order handed down
last Saturday, by which the cars
containing the shipments would be
boarded up with six-inch boards. on
the condition that before such cars
are allowed to re-enter the state of
Georgia they must be cleared of the
pine straw and the entire interior
disinfected.
DR.. Bahnsen saw difficulties in the
way of this agreement because, he
said, of the fact that shipments
which have gone as far as Florence.
S. c., known as a Diversion point"
frequently are brought back to Geor-
gla points upon certain fluctuations
of the melon market, and he did not
believe that the railroad operating
departments would approve of such
conditions.
Although he declined to reveal
specific instances, reserving such, he
said, for the court hearing next

NEW YORK, June 50.-The cot
ton market was lower in today S
earlv trading because Of relatively
easv Liverpool cables, reports OF
continued good weather in the south
and a tendency to raise estimates OF
the probable crop. The opening was
barely steady at declines of to 10
points and the market eased off to
PATS for October and 24.07 for De-
cember, or about 10 points net low
err. No July notices were reported
in circulation and after selling off
to 2S.S2 or about 81 points net lower,
that position rallied to 1884 on COW
ering. A Memphis authority esti-
mated the condition of the crop at
70.S compared with 6S.1 last month
and placed the indicated yield at
1890, 900 bales.
After a decline of 20 to 25 points
in October to 24.70 in the early trad
ing, the market steadied on renewed
covering by July shorts and buying
of new crop positions on unfavora-
BILE weather reports. July rallied TO
29.1S and October to 25.O2, with
prices ranging to Is points net
higher. Trading was quiet and the
tone steady around midday.
October eased off 24.73 or %
points net lower; offerings were not
heavy and the market was fairly
steady around 2 o'clock with July 2
points net higher and later months

Bishop Andrews, who arrived after
the opening of the sessions, pre-
sided in turn over the daily ses
sions.
While the most definite plans for
unification have been produced since
1914, numerous overtures had been
brought forth for many years back
When DIR. Lowe Pierce was ap-
pointed a fraternal delegate from the
south to extend greetings to the
northern conference, of 1916, that
body. while extending him all per.
sonal courtesies, refused to receive
him officially.
When Bishop Andrews learned of
the excitement and displeasure
caused by report that one Of the
bihsops of the church was a slave
owner, he resolved to resign, accord
ing to the church history, and on
May IA, 1874, wrote to his daughter
as follows:
Il would most joyfulIy resign, if
it did not endanger the influence on
the southern church. I shall there
fore wait PATIENTLY while longer.
The clouds are dark, but God is in
the whirlwind and guides the storm. 1"
On May Is, he wrote to his wife:
The entire delegation from the
twelve slave-holding states has met
and through u committee have ear
nestly protested against my resigna-
ton under any circumstances as in
evitably destructive to the southern
church, and for the sake of that
church, l am resolved to maintain
my position and await the issue"
The action of the southern dele.
gates referred to by Bishop Andrews
was as follows, according to the reso-
luton recorded:
Whereas, Bishop Andrews has
signified to the delegates of the con-
ferences in the slave-holding states
a purpose to yield to the present dis
tressing urgency of the brethren
from the north and resign his office
of bishop, and whereas in a meeting
OF said delegates to consider this
matter, after solemn prayer and
much elaboration, it appears to US
that his resignation would inflict an
incurable wound on the whole south
and inevitably lead to division in the
church. Therefore, we do unanimous
ly concur in requesting the bishop
by all his love for the unity of the
church, which his resignation will

BUSY TIME AHEAD
. FOR LEGISLATORS
BEGINNING MONDAY

Preliminaries having been dispos-
ed of. committee organization intact
from last year, the governors mes
sage digested and the calendars mold
Ping enough business to keep both
houses busy for some time, the gen.
eral assembly plans to get down to
business in real earnest Monday
morning at II o'clock, after the
weekend recess.
The house calendar contains much
more pending legislation than that
of the senate. When the lower house
convenes Monday morning, 1t Will be
faced with consideration of the mo-
tor bus line bill, which provides
that the public service commission
shall take jurisdiction over the mo-
tor bus lines in this state. The
measure passed the senate last year.
Opponents of this bill declare
that the Georgia Railway and Pow
er company, as we'll as the railroads,
are backing the proposal with the
idea of restricting the operation Of
iitneys in the larger cities, while
the inter-city bus lines, now in their
infancy in Georgia, would also be
subject to more strict regulation
than at present. 1t is proposed to
amend the measure so as to exempt
motor bus lines operating entirely
within the boundaries of any munic-
ipality, but several opponents are
for killing the bill altogether.

put this measure back on the calen
dar for future consideration. The
| vote to reconsider was "A to 70 and
| it takes 10S votes to pass bill IN
the lower house.
Repeal of Tobacco Tax
Another matter that will claim the
attention of the house next week is
the bill to repeal the tobacco tax
statute which was enacted last year.
Herman Miner, of Dodge county, au-
thor of the bill, is outspoken in his
criticism of the manner in which the
tobacco tax act has been admins
tered, and declares his entire will
lingness to see the repeal measure
pass unless the administration of the
tax is strengthened materially. He
has under consideration the advis-
ability of amending the act so as to
compel registration of retail tobacco
dealers to define the status of a re-
tail dealer, and to bring about more
uniform enforcement of the tax col
lection.

important measures ready for imme-
date consideration. On Wednesday,

CHICAGO (Monday), June So
The wheat market today was a
strong one and there was more &C
tive business than for the last few
days. 1t was evident when the mar
ket opened that long bulls were OF
the opinion that they had waited
long enough to reinstate their lines
and that today was the day to per
form this task.
There was nothing stimulating in
the news of the day. Liverpool was
little higher and Winnipeg was
strong, and these are the only two
facts that might have caused bulls
to reach the above conclusion. Aft
er a sharp advance the market ran
into some profit-taking sales and
nearly all of the early gain was
wiped out about mid-session. North
west houses came to the rescue and
their buying lifted values higher
again. Export trade was quiet. Mill
ing demand was limited. Liverpool
strength was attributed to smaller
shipments in cable to q local
house but this conflicted with the
ifacts in so far as worlds shipments
were about 100000 bigger than
last year. Supplies on ocean passage
were reduced nearly 100000 bushels
last week.
Wheat closed 1 to 1 IA cent high
er. July LIS IA to 3-S; September
1877 7-S to ga; December 1.19 rs to
1.20; May 1.20 ga.
Corn was sharply higher and De-
cember made a new high on the
crop. Crop news from Illinois and
Iowa and parts of the Ohio Valley
continue bad because of excessive
moisture and insect pests. This
ca lsed a general rush to buy of all
months and there was little for
sale Resting orders to sell slowed
up the advancing tendency on the
bulge. Cash corn basis was IL cent
lower. Country sold a few cars of
corn to arrive on the advance. Ship
ping demand was slight.
Corn closed 2 5-8 to 7-8 higher;
July 95 10; September "a rs to SIS;
December "a "a to So.
Oats sold at new high levels on
the crop. Cash houses bought the
nearby deliveries and commission
houses took the deferred futures. Of
ferings were light but they increas-
ed on the bulge. Shipping demand
was good but shippers were reluc-
tant to offer.
Oats were l Is to 1 IA cent high
er. July 81 So; September AZ SIS;
December 40 IA.
Provisions were firm on commits
sion house buying but locals perssed
ribs for sale.
Lard closed IL to 5 cents higher:
Ribs 2 IL cents lower to 2 IL cents
higher, and bellies 1 cent lower to
5 cents higher.
Local cash sales today were $4,000
bushels of wheat; $1,000 bushels of
corn, and 10000 bushels of oats.
