SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: CFFE, a

New York not-for-profit corporation, has

applied to the Commission for

designation as a contract market for the

computer-based trading of US Treasury

bond, ten-year note, five-year note and

two-year note futures contracts. CFFE

has been formed pursuant to an

agreement between the New York

Cotton Exchange (‘‘NYCE’’) and CFFE,

LLC, a subsidiary of Cantor Fitzgerald,

LP (‘‘Cantor’’). Under the agreement,

CFFE trading would be conducted on

the same trading system that another

Cantor subsidiary, Cantor Fitzgerald

Securities, LLC (‘‘CFS’’), currently

operates as an interdealer-broker in the

US Treasury securities market. CFFE’s

regulatory responsibilities would be

handled by NYCE. CFFE trades would

be cleared and settled by the

Commodity Clearing Corporation

(‘‘CCC‘’) which is wholly owned by

NYCE.

CFFE has not previously been

designated by the Commission as a

contract market in any commodity.

Accordingly, in addition to the terms

and conditions of the proposed futures

contracts, the Exchange has submitted

to the Commission a proposed tradematching algorthm; proposed rules

pertaining to CFFE governance,

disciplinary and arbitration procedures,

trading standards and recordkeeping

requirements; and various other

materials to meet the requirements for a

board of trade seeking initial

designation as a contract market.

Notice of CFFE’s application was

previously published on February 3,

1997 (63 FR 5505) for a comment period

ending on April 6, 1998. That comment

period was later extended until April

27, 1998 (63 FR 17823 (April 10, 1998)).

After the closing of that comment

period, the Exchange submitted to the

Commission additional materials which

revised or further explicated certain

features of its proposal. Accordingly, the

Commission published CFFE’s

application again on July 1, 1998 (63 FR

35912) for an additional comment

period ending July 16, 1998, so that the

public could review and comment on

the Exchange’s additional submissions.

The Commission is of the view that,

in addition to the receipt of written

comments, an opportunity for interested

members of the public to appear before

it will assist it in its consideration of

CFFE’s application and is in the public

interest. Accordingly, the Commission

will convene a public meeting on

August 11, 1998, for that purpose.

In its requests for comment, 63 FR

5505 (February 3, 1998), 63 FR 35912

(July 1, 1998), the Commission

described CFFE’s application, including

its provisions regarding CFFE’s

governance structure, trade matching

algorithm, compliance program, and

disciplinary and arbitration procedures.

Persons appearing before the

Commission are invited specifically to

address those, and any other aspects of

CFFE’s application for designation as a

new contract market, as well as CCC’s

proposal to serve as CFFE’s clearing

organization, and to provide relevant

factual data.

All individuals or organizations

wishing to appear before the

Commission should submit to the

Commission at the above address, by

August 6, 1998, a concise written

statement of interest and qualifications

and a brief written summary or abstract

of the content of his or her statement.

The Commission will invite a

representative number of individuals or

organizations to appear from those

submitting such statements. A

transcription of the meeting will be

made and entered into the

Commission’s public comment files.

Issued in Washington, D.C., this 30th day

of July, 1998.

By the Commodity Futures Trading

Commission.

Assistant Secretary of the Commission.
