ANTI-OPTION BILLS.
Grain Spectators Strongly Oppose The
Proposed Measures.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE opponents of
the anticipation bills had the floor to-day in
the hearing before the House Committee on
Agriculture. The Chicago and Minneap-
oils men told why the bill would not benefit
the farmers and would hurt the men en-
gagged in the business Of supplying the de-
mand for grain. Aldrich of the Chicago
Board of Trade said the board was heartily
in favor of the bill so far as related to
options as designated in the first section
of the measure, relating to fictitious sales.
That kind of trading always has been
illegal, and was never recognized The
board spent a great deal of money trying to
procure the enforcement OF the law prohib-
iting gambling contracts. The system In
operation is the result of great many years
of experience. IL was not something de-
vised specially to give an opportunity for
dealing in futures.
Boards of trade, like bank clearing houses,
were commercial cOnveniences for eX-
changes. The declines which came, as a
rule were legitimate and due to the supply
exceeding the demand for the crop. At
times prices were temporarily advanced by
speculative buying, and, 10 short. the tluc-
tuaJons were greater on that side than on
the other Continuing, Aldrich said If the
bill under consideration should pass 1t would
be the most disastrous thing for the farm

them OF their system of exchanges. AL
drich said it would not be an OVereStlmate
to say that only 5000, 600 are up in Chicago
in margins at one time. Aldrch said If the
committee would report bin simply doing
away with fictitious sales, he thought there
is no doubt il would meet with the appro-
baton of the members of the Chicago Board
Of Trade.
A. J. Sawyer, one of the largest elevator
men in Minneapolis, said he would make
no attack on the bill, but before the pres
ent method Of handling grain is destroyed,
he would ask the committee to devise some
substitute by which it could be better
handled. Sawyer appealed to the commit
tee not to knock away the undermining by
which wheat merchants like himself pro-
tected themselves from losses, without CIV
ing them in its place something equally as
good.
The committee to-day received a protest
against the passage Of the Washburn bill,
relating to the subject under discussion
from the New Orleans cotton exchange.
The document makes distinction between
Futures" which 1t defends as legitimate
contracts, and options" commonly known
as puts and calls, which are characterized
as nothing more nor less than wagers. 1t
is further asserted that futures" serve as
restraint to serious declines in times OF
depression.
