FINDING OF CONSOLIDATED EXCHANGE DIREc-
TORS TO BE MADE KNOWN TO-DAY.
The Board of Directors of the Consolidated Stock
and Petroleum Exchange yesterday afternoon de-
voted three hours investigation of the
charges against two brokerage firms represented
in the membership of the Exchange. but the
close Of the session President Mortimer H. Wagar
would say merely that the conclusions reached
would be announced from the rostrum the open
ing of the Exchange to-day and that meanwhile,
at the express request of the directors he should
not discuss the cases. 1t felt that the best
interests of the Exchange would be served by Civ
ing its affairs the minimum of publicity 1t sup
posed that the members trial have been found
guilty OF conduct prejudicia to the best interests
and good repute Of the Exchange which is an
other way for saying that they have 'bucketed"
orders
Mr.. Wagar elected president on June i by
majority of about two hundred out of total vote
of 793, after the most determined and bitter con-
test in the history Of the Exchange. He based mis-
candidacy his opposition to bucket shopping
his friends charging that Charles G. Wilson, who
had served in the presidency for fifteen years and
who headed the ticket opposed to the Wagar
ticket, supported mainly by bucket shop
men. Since Mr. Wagar assumed the presidency
several OF the members of the Exchange have been
placed trial for alleged bucket shopping and
have been suspended expelled
