To The President and Board Of Directors Loca
Letters Commenting upon The manner
heretofore observed, of publishing the
monthly crop report OF the National Got
ton Exchange, have been addressed t.
the president, who has submitted copies
thereof to tho Executive Council, with
the following suggestions, viz:
In the matter OF crop reports, j pre-.
sumo there will be but one opinion OF
the Importance of the following points
|. Uniformity in the questions pro-
pounded to correspondents.
2. That the reports of the different
Exchanges should be published on, the
same day, in order that they may be
photographed simultaneously by the As.
ISOLATED Press. ~
3. That each Exchange should adhere
strictly to the territory assigned 1t by
the National Exchange. With this ex-
PLANTATION, l present the following pro
positions for your consideration
FU'st-That we adhere to the present
plan; that the reports Of local Ex-
changes be forwarded to the New Or
leans Exchange for consolidation and
publication, and that local Exchanges
are not authorized to issue their reports
until the general report ispublished; or,
Second That the reports DO made up
and published by the local Exchanges
on the 10th Of each month, fixed and
afterwards consolidated and published
BY the National Exchange; or,
Mird-That the reports be published
by the local Exchanges on the 10th of
date, and that each Exchange fur
nish q copy OF their report To the Asso-
ciated Press, to be telegraphed, 50 shat
it may appear in the papers on the
morning Of the 18th; the, further publ
cation OF n consolidated report by the
National Exchange to be discontinued.
am decidedly In favor OF the adop-
ton OF the third suggestion, which car
ricd out promptly by the local Elk
changes will have all the advantages of
our present plan, and do away with all
cause for jealousy, besides effecting an
important saving IN time and expense
to the National Exchange"
The third proposition, rs above quo
Gil, one of the members suggesting that
each local Exchange shall on the 10th
OF the month, also mail TO the other
Exchanges, comprising tho National
Exchange, a copy OF the report given to
the Associated Press.
1t is therefore ordered by the Exectl-
tive Council OF the National Cotton Ex-
change Of America, that the Crop Re-
port be published by each local Ex-
change Tor the territory assigned to it
on the 10th OF each month
Tor the month proceeding embracing
The period from list May to 3Oth No
vember inclusive, and that each report
30 furnished to the Associated Press to
De telegraphed on the day of publica-
ion. The further issuance OF a con
'olidated report, Of the growing crop.
~ the National Exchange to be dis

Foul PLAy-Probablv M,vtler.-It
will be remembered that about 10 0 clock
on the night OF the 25th ult. man by
the name OF Emile Ruch was found in q
beastly state Of intoxication lying on
the railroad track OF the Bienville,
Canal street, City Park and Lake Rail
road Company, a short distance from
the Magnolia Garden, by the mounted
police, bleeding profusely from wound
in the neck.
He was conveyed to the Charity Hos
pital. where he, died Wednesday night
from the effects OF the wound. The
Coroner held an inquest yesterday and
returned verdict of death from tafa-
nus, produced by stab nthe neck On
the night that the unfortunate man was
found in the above condition. ii was as.
certained that he had been stabbed Nv
two men, about 10 o'clock, whose names
were unknown. As usual, THE police
LOOK no steps at the time to ferret ont
the perpetrators OF the deed, but since
the man Is dead, and it Is supposed tn
be murder, the police, it is hoped will
use little more energy in trying to cap
ture the murderers.
