AMENDING THE RULES OF THE COTTON EXCHANGE
Under the present system of cotton deliveries on
contracts there is no assurance whatever that cot
ton received on one day Will deliver for the same
grade the next. Hence it is necessary that every
time it changes hands II must be rehandlcd in ware
house, reweighed and re-sampled and this causes
loss in weight and great expense. Recognizing the
dcsirabiy and feasibility Of a change in the rules
so that the trade will be protected and that mcr-
chants will lie enabled TO transact business Win
greater security, amendments 10 the rules will be
voted on by the Exchange on Monday.
