TWO TICKETS IN THE FIELD.
BITTER CONTEST EXPECTED IN CONSOLE
DATED EXCHANGE-PRESENT AID
MINISTRATION ASSAILED.

The annual election of officers of the Consolidated
Stock and Petroleum Exchange, which Is to take
place Monday. bids fair to be the most bitterly
contested in the history of the Exchange
The ticket selected by the Nominating Committee
bore the name of Mortimer II. Wagar as the regu-
lar nominee for president. On this ticket being pre-
scented the friends of Charles G. Wilson who has
been president the last fifteen years, named an
independent ticket, headed by Mr.. Wilson for pres
ident This move has resulted in the issuance by
Moses Hirshfeld. chairman of the Nominating Com
mittee of a circular telling in exceedingly plain
language the reasons why the committee had de-
cided not present the name of Mr.. Wilson Tor
another term in the presidency. The committees
opposition to the denomination of Mr.. Wilson, the
circular declares, lis because the floor members OF
the Exchange believe that the work of our man

bers Of our Exchange has been weak and ineffect-
I've The evil of 'bucketing' business instead OF
executing orders by members of our Exchange has
grown and increased until it has not only under
mined the prosperity of the Exchange, but now
actually menaces its very existence For this state
president. who. unlike the presidents Of other ex-
changes, is paid liberal salary devote his time
and attention to the affairs of the Exchange"
Twelve years ago, the circular continues, seats
on the Consolidated Exchange ranged in price
from $1,000 to $500. Since then, by the buying in
and retiring of about nine hundred seats, and as
on that Exchange should have advanced in price
III the business that comes to members OF our Ex
serts, our seats would be selling to-day for
nearer 5000 than $500" Seats the stock
changes of this and other cities he goes on. have
appreciated largely in value within the last few
years, yet seats bring barely one-hah what
they did twelve years ago, and although 1t is
well known fact that the amount of business sent
to the members of Exchange has enormously
increased the business actually executed has fallen
away. In fight to remedy this evil and compel
the members OF our Exchange to execute the orders
they receive, Mr.. Wagar is the logical champion of
honest business methods
The circular continues: The alignment the
